Do not update to 1.1.3 yet--you cannot go back!

[Tinman]

This is probably posted in various threads but I thought I'd dedicate a thread to it in the hopes it will warn those who want to try 1.1.3 and then go back to a jailbroken 1.1.2/1.1.1.

As of this moment: IT CAN'T BE DONE, at least not if you still want to be able to use your iPhone as a phone, and for EDGE data.

Again: If you update to 1.1.3 right now you will be stuck with it. And as of right now 1.1.3 cannot be jailbroken.

Update: It is now possible to downgrade from 1.1.3 if, and only if, your bootloader is version 3.9 (OOB iPhone versions 1.1.1 and earlier). It's a lengthy process but does work:

But for those of us that do not have need to hack or use the iphone beyond its design what is your take on 1.1.3? Thanks.

Well I assume you are reading this particular forum because you have some interest in jailreaking. If so don't update to 1.1.3 till a known jailbreaking solution appears.

If you don't/won't care about jailbreaking, go for 1.1.3 right now.

Thanks Mike. So far I have not had any need to think about the iphone doing anymore than out-of-the-box and upgrades (except GPS). I saw your post not because of jailbreaking but it somehow got associated with a quote/post I had made earlier to an individual which read:

"...Thanks for your previous support on ringtones and sending me Cell Phone Ringing. I used the renaming method to convert the Cell Phone Ringing tone
which brings me to my question. Will software version 1.1.3 disable that ringtone?..."

DAMNIT!! I read this post AFTER I just finished updating my phone. I lost EVERYTHING!!! My phone is a stocked phone once again =( I can't wait til someone comes out with Jailbreak software for 1.1.3. Hurry...

Nice call Mike. Hopefully 1.1.3 is jailbroken within a timely fashion.

You left out a key word, Mike---Yet. As in, I updated with a few regrets, so I need to believe there's a yet in there.

"As of this moment" kinda means the same thing, dontcha think?

Plus, I should come out and predict it won't be possible to jailbreak 1.1.3 anytime soon. Because the minute I did that for 1.1.1 a jailbreaking solution appeared.

So here goes: we won't see a jailbreak for 1.1.3 till June at the earliest, perhaps never.

I don't think so, but nevertheless I hope your antijinx works!
