These are instructions on how to Update and Jailbreak to 1.1.3 iPhone Firmware using the Official Dev Team Method.

You can find the Mac version of this tutorial here:
How to Officially Update and Jailbreak to 1.1.3 iPhone Firmware

I strongly recommend using the Installer method to perform this soft jailbreak. It is way easier and less error prone. It can be found here:
How to Officially Update and Jailbreak to 1.1.3 iPhone Firmware Using Installer

To follow these instructions you need to have a 1.1.2 Jailbroken iPhone. You can find instructions on how to do this here:
Windows: How to Activate and Jailbreak Your OTB 1.1.2 iPhone Using Windows
Mac: How to Activate and Jailbreak Your OTB 1.1.2 iPhone

PREPARE THE PHONE
Step One
Press to select Settings from your springboard.

Press to select General from the list of categories.

Step Three
Press to select Auto-Lock from the General menu.

Step Four
Press to select Never from the list of Auto-Lock times.

Step Five
Press the Home button to return to your springboard.

Step Six
Press to select Installer from your springboard.

Step Seven
Press Donate Later to continue into the Installer app. Note: Come back later and donate as this app is helping you out a ton!

Step Ten
Press to select BSD Subsystem from the list of packages.

Step Eleven
Press to select the Install button at the top right.

Step Twelve
Press the Install button to confirm installation.

NOTE***: Make sure before you continue that you have updated to the latest Installer version if you have not already. The old version of Installer will not operate on 1.1.3.

INSTALL THE JAILBREAK
Step One
Download the Jailbreak from: here

Step Two
Extract the downloaded file (Jailbreak-1.1.3.tar.gz). WinRAR can be used to extract it...

Step Three
Launch WinSCP by selecting it from your Programs list.

Step Four
Enter your iPhone's IP Address as your Host name. Enter root as your User name. Enter alpine as your Password. Finally click the Login button.

If you don't know your iPhone's IP Address you can find it here:

Step Five
Select / from the Remote Folder Dropdown Menu.

Step Six
Navigate to the location of the Jailbreak-1.1.3 folder using the left pane and select all the files in it.

Step Seven
Drag the selected files to the right pane. If prompted to confirm the copy press the Copy button.

Step Eight
Click to select Open Terminal from the Commands Menu.

Step Nine
If asked to open a separate shell session click the Ok button.

Step Ten
In the console window that appears enter the command cd / and click the Execute button.

Step Eleven
Now enter the command sh install.sh and click the Execute button.

Step Twelve
The script will download the firmware from Apple once it finishes it will just sit there for a few minutes. Don't worry this is normal.

NOTE***: If you ever get this window displayed do not click anything on it. Don't click Abort and don't click the X either. It will disappear in few minutes!

Step Fourteen
It will then display some encryption information and sit there for a few minutes. Don't worry this is normal.

Step Fifteen
The script will then display some partition information and sit there for another few minutes. Don't worry this is normal.

Step Sixteen
The script will then continue to patch your iPhone. It will take several minutes for this to complete and then it will sit there for a longer several minutes again. Once its complete the SSH connection will terminate!

Step Seventeen
After about a minute your iPhone will reboot into a Jailbroken 1.1.3 iPhone !!!!

Hey there Amin I have the same problem, there is a way of using a1.1.3 ipsf from your comp, il try find the link later. It involves altering the code in the sh install file, and transferring the 1.1.3 file to the private/VAR/ directory on your iPhone via ash. However even after doing this it still would not install for me! I have given up and I am just using 1.1.2 untill I can be bothered trying again!

Amin - February 11, 2008 at 12:29am

Is there anyway to use the SW 1.1.3 which is saved on PC localy instead of downloading it again by terminal?

Amin - February 10, 2008 at 11:56pm

when it tries to download the SW i always get a prompt of "operation timed out"

Hi, i got a funny installer icon after upgrading to 113. Everything on the originally 11246otb works, unlocked succesfully with the geohot software method and software update 113 with installer. now ssh is working but there is no icon on screen, and I cannot find Applications in the phone private/var/root directory Any idea, ? The installer icon looks like a piece of paper with lever, pencil on it. ????

Tinus - February 7, 2008 at 2:01pm

Hey I have tried installer method, windows method, apple method, and even some other one i found. All get stuck at the apple download part! It just keeps trying to connect and retries many times untill it gives up. Please help me, I'm getting desperate

1.1.1 OTB, jailbroken 1.1.2... I used the installer to install 1.1.3 without updating to newest installer. The only problem so far is the google locate function! I didnt connect to my pc to do the "soft upgrade" to 1.1.3.

Thank alots to iClarified and all those who had help so much in getting the iphone working, Last night i use my otb1.1.2 downgrade to 1.1.1 then back to 1.1.2 and using turbo sim and its working fine and then i upgrade to 1.1.3 and its working with the turbo sim. guys remember use the at@t card to upgrade to 1.1.3 and REMEMBER Don't use your SIM with turbo sim. i use the ibraker 1.1.3 to do it but its give me a little problems after its done cos' i have to switch off and on for a while to get it open. i have a 1.1.3 jailbroken and and unlock but i am still in the same modem firmware 04.02.13_g. everythings work like 1.1.3.....THANKS ALOTS TO ALL THE PPLS WHO GOT ALL THIS WORKING.....:) When you use the jb ibreaker 1.1.3 to jailbreak and when its done Don't update to (1.1.3 soft upgrade), it will freeze your phone and then you will have to redo all over again. Remember guys when ever you get stuck with anythings you can always go to itune to restore to 1.1.1 jb and upgrade to 1.1.2jb and do it again to upgrade to 1.1.3 using jbibreak1.1.3

Razor1973-> I meant that is not recovery mode. It is only screen. I use AppTap to go to "slide to unlock screen" and everything is ok untill next seft reset device. - I mean when I soft reset my device, some data are deleted so in the next time the phone will start again in mode "with itunes" screen. Then I must again use Apptap.

WN - January 29, 2008 at 7:54pm

jailbreak 1.1.1 --> oktoprep --> 1.1.2 --> 1.1.3. Reinstall BSD Subsystem. Everything (EDGE, phone, ringer, mail, safari, SMS) workng fine.. except term-vt100. When I launch term-vt100, it ask for password and I tried alpine or dottie. None successful. But I can use Putty (SSH telnet) to login using root account with alpine password. Anyone have such problem and how you solve this? Thanks.

Razor1973 - January 29, 2008 at 4:54pm

Susu, Sultan, that's the recovery mode. Use iBrickr to reboot your phone.

SULTAN - January 29, 2008 at 4:44pm

susu i have the same thing .. 3 times

Susu - January 29, 2008 at 1:28pm

I have a working iPhone 1.1.2 OOB ( jailbroken and with TurboSIM, If i do this upgrade, will I still have a working Phone ( not an iPod Touch )?

Razor1973 - January 28, 2008 at 9:37pm

After several hours and reinstalling 1.0.2, 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 SEVERAL times, I was able to end up with a jailbroken 1.1.3. Except I hear no ringer when I get a call!!! I have tried changing ringtone, normal, silent and vibrate modes, etc., to no avail. Anybody else experience the same?

BoBs - January 28, 2008 at 12:16pm

hi, everyone. i currently installed the 1.1.3 update using this tutorial. It is great so far except for the installer. i cant install anything from the installer, each time i try to to install sthg i get the following error "Main script execution failed!". Anyone has any idea on how to fix this. Will virgnizing the iphone and then updating to 1.1.3 solve the problem??? (My iPhone is version 1.1.2 OTB, currently updated to 1.1.3 using this tutorial and unlocked using TURBO SIM)

I got also stuck at "mkdir /private/var/logs/Baseband: File exists" read below, seems to be allright! Try to hit installer button on homescreen when it's stuck, so it will reboot ... worked for me, gotta check all functions now ... i'm going to tell u later if everything is all right! I had a 1.1.2ootb jailbroken iphone with t-mobile (germany) carrier lock. i did: - iTunes upgrade to usual 1.1.3 worked (so baseband is 04.03.13_G) - Restor to 1.1.1 -> Error 1015 (has to be) - Second Restore to 1.1.1 -> Error 1015 (as expected) - Jailbreak 1.1.1 (*#306#, ...) + Oktoprep - UPDATE to 1.1.2 - Jailbreak 1.1.2 - updated to latest version of installer, BSD Subsystem 2.0, latest Open SSH - the continued installing 1.1.3 just like in iClarified's tutorial. - gut stuck at "mkdir /private/var/logs/Baseband: File exists" - hit installer button on iphone -> about a minute the spinning "work" circle - iphone rebooted and voila seems to be a working 1.1.3 iphone. lets check the functions cool

I am confused, does the update to 1.1.3 using this method allow my phone functions to work or am I limited to ipod touch status. My iphnone is a 1.1.1 unlocked updated to 1.1.2. If i follow the update & jailbreak path to 1.1.3 does the phone function still work? .
