Guide: Easiest way to Jailbreak, Activate, and Unlock on 1.02 or 1.1.1 (PC optional!)

[ranova]

I put this guide together to quickly get everyone going on jailbreaking, activating, and unlocking on either 1.02 or 1.1.1. 1.1.1 Jailbreak, activate, and unlock requires no Windows\Mac usage!

Updating from 1.02 to 1.1.1

• If you used anything but Anysim 1.1.1 or IphoneSimFree (that includes iunlock, anysim 1.02, etc) to unlock your 1.02 phone, you MUST virginize your phone before upgrading to 1.1.1 to save a lot of headaches.

• Please read Bigboss\Xmod's guide located here.

• After running the virginize scripts, you can safely update to 1.1.1 via itunes.

Jailbreaking and Activating on 1.02 (Windows or Mac needed)

• Download 1.02 apptapp at nullriver and run it to install, it will jailbreak within the process of installing installer.

• Download and run Paycay (thanks bigboss and xmods for the host), this will activate your phone.

• For Mac OSX, use iNdependance

Jailbreaking and Activating on 1.1.1 (No PC needed! Just Wifi)

• If you are an iPod Touch user or a legit AT&T iphone subscriber, just activate your phone from iTunes and go to jailbreakme.com in mobile safari.

• If you are planning on not using AT&T and another provider (or none at all), read and perform the steps found at appsnapp to get mobile safari up and running on your unactivated iPhone.

• Once in mobile safari, go to jailbreakme.com and follow the steps.

• After everything is done, you should be jailbroken, activated, and installer app should be on your home screen.

Unlocking on 1.02 and 1.1.1

• Once you are using the latest version of Installer app, install Community Sources, then go to Sources at the bottom right, Click edit at the top right corner, and then click add at the top right corner and type in this url: http://markmon.mine.nu:90/iphone/repo/repo.plist.

• Refresh the sources and find Anysim 1.1 and install it

• Run the the app and your phone should now be unlocked!

jailbreakme.com not only jailbreaks, but it activates and installs apptapp\installer.app

no, no methods will survive a restore, you must rejailbreak, activate, and unlock everytime you restore
