These are instructions on how to unlock, jailbreak and activate your iPhone using iLiberty+ and Windows.
Before following these instructions you should have already restored your iPhone to 1.1.4 using iTunes. You should have the iPhone connected to your dock/computer and iTunes should have detected the iPhone after restore at least one once!
Step One Download iLiberty+ 1.2 from here or here to your desktop.
Step Two Double click the downloaded file (iLibertySetup_1.2.0.65.exe) on your desktop to launch the install program.
Step Three Click the Next button to begin installation.
Step Four Select the location to install iLiberty+ in and click the Next button.
Step Five Enter a name for the iLiberty+ Start Menu Folder and click the Nextbutton.
Step Six Check the box if you would like to add a iLiberty+ icon to your desktop then click the Next button.
Step Seven Finally, click the Install button.
Step Eight Once installation is complete you will be given the option to launch iLiberty+. Check the box next to Launch iLiberty+ then click the Finish button.
Step Nine iLiberty+ will open onto the standard tab.
Check the operations you would like to perform. If you are unlocking you would most likely choose all 5 options!
Step Ten Click to select the Payloads tab. From here you can select additional payloads to install while unlocking or jailbreaking. We will leave this alone for now and go back to the Standard tab. Note***: A tutorial on how to download and install payloads will be posted in the near future.
Step Eleven Click the Go for it! button from the Standard Tab to begin.
Next I got a message that asked me to disconnect then reconnect my iPhone and click the OK button.
Step Twelve You will then notice a status bar appear. Unfortunately, mine only displayed until around 13% and then disappeared. No worries though, the unlock procedure continued and finished successfully. I was not notified that it did by the software. Just watch your iPhone until it comes to rest at the "Slide to unlock" screen.
THANKS***: A lot of thanks go out to AViegas, George Zhu, Dev Team, and whomever else contributed to this release!

Hi, I had un unlocked iphone 3G. I accidentally (!!) upgraded it to 3.1 OS via iTunes when all I wanted was to back up the contents of the phone to my PC. Of course, it is now locked, I can't even open it as it asks me to connect again to iTunes and have acompatible sim card. What options should I check on the iLiberty installation. Thank you.
i have followed all the instruction but my problem is im not able to click on the "go for it !" button.
im trying to unlock my phone any help will be greatly appertiated.
keep the good work guys
i lose my anger quick. been at it since 9am this morning. its not 830pm! i finally gotta my phone back. went from 1.1.4 to 2.0 (messed up everything) and now im back to 1.1.4 and i think im gonna stay here. this tutorial was a big help. thanks a bunch.
to anyone who will experience ERROR 1604 (restoring from original iphone 2g jailbreak). Just try to downgrade your firmware from 2.0 to 1.1.4 using itune7.5 and unlock using iliberty. Good luck. Uninstall all programs like itune7.7 and winpwn2.0.0.3. You will need installer like iTunes75Setup.exe, iTunes7.7.1.exe, iPhone1,1_1.1.4_4A102_Restore.ipsw and iLibertySetup_1.2.1.78.exe. my iphone works fine now using the firmware 1.1.4 unlock/activated. you will need this website for downgrade (https://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1504) and unlock (https://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=849) also from iClarified. Im using WinXP SP2 computer.
Hey if you have itunes version 8.0 the firmware version will be 2.0, there for the unlocking process will not work cause the highest it can go up to is 1.1.4 so my main question is how do you downgrade your itunes or where can i get another 7.6 itunes version from? So the unlocking will work?
Using Liberty..got to the last step but it says its having a problem with the payloads.. Note i downgraded from 2.0 to 1.1.4 and everything went well..followed all directions..just the last step..a problem with the payloads is keepin it from finishing.
Need help please. I installed the iLiberty and had no problems. Already set up my phone with some pretty cool apps. I have run into one problem, I can't access my email any more. I used all the different programs except the unlock phone one. Not sure if anyone has had this problem as well but any help would be appreciated.
Does anyone know how to put installer on the Iphone 1.1.4?
I used iLiberty+ to unlock my iphone, i followed 2 times step by step from this tutorial, but the installer applications doesn´t go trough. Can anyone help me, please?
Thanks
Hi,
How 2 restore fone 2 1.1.4?? I have downloaded 1.1.4 version. do I jst instal it when I conect my fone 2 lappy and turn on itunes??
Secondly, I hav 1.1.2 OTB unlocked using stealth sim.
Do I need 2 get d sim out b4 unlocking or do I jst go ahead wit ur tutorial??
Pls help thx u
I got a question... my original fw is 1.0.1, upgraded to 1.1.4 with Ziphone.. if i do a complete restore and use this, will it mess up my phone?.. thank you in advance
Hi. Great tutorial, i'm gonna use it when i get my iPhone, by the way, when i'm gonna use it the first time, can i install other payloads at the same time, or should I jailbreak, unlock, activate, install installer.app and then install the other payloads??? :D
Hey the worst program to use is Ziphone since it changes the bootloader from 4.6 to 3.9 and you can`t change it back. iliberty and iplus both give you 3.9FB which can be changed back. I was wondering if anyone tried using iliberty+ with an itouch 1.1.4 16gb?
I have accidentally removed installer from my iphone when I was using my Winscp. Everything on my iphone is alright except for installer. Does anyone know how to use install the installer back? I have a 1.1.4 iphone. I was trying to use iliberty to just install the installer back but it doesn't let me to unclick the jailbreak option. I didn't wanna restore the whole phone because my phone has already jail-broken & it's only the installer that I am missing. I have also visisted the nullriver site to download the installer zip file but seems like the link for firmware 1.1.4 has been removed. Please help !!!
Fellows, I´ve used iliberty+1.3.0.113 to unlock/jailbreak and activate my iPhone, but I installed Cydia on it and now I can´t install the applications from iClarified Repository!
How do you do to install the old and good Installer to my iPhone? I´ve tried the www.jailbreakme.com, but it does not work!
Please help, I want to keep following your tutorials, but with just Cydia it is not possible!
Thanks!
