iPhone and iPod touch v1.1.1 full jailbreak posted
Here it is folks, the TIFF image we tested that exploits firmware v1.1.1, giving you full root level file access to your iPhone (without upgrading from v1.0.2) and iPod touch. Before you click the link, note the caveats:
- This may open up file system access, but it's not a primetime hack, meaning it's not so graceful as to simplify the installation of AppTapp or anything. Once you get file system access you're kind of on your own to get apps working.
- Don't hold us responsible if it damages or bricks your device.
- You might be able use this on an unactivated v1.1.1 iPhone from Safari, but it's a hella tricky technique. Good luck with this one! [Via TUAW, thanks Camron!]
- Please don't hold us responsible if it damages or bricks your device.
- Apple will more than likely fix this vulnerability with v1.1.2, or whatever its next firmware version will be. When that happens we'll all be back to the same spot we were the day v1.1.1 was released. So know this is a temporary technique, unless you're committed to using v1.1.1 from here on out.
- We are so not responsible if it damages or bricks your device.
- None of this will help the sad reality that iUnlock and anySIM still disable the cell radio in v1.1.1, so use those apps at your own risk once you break on through to the other side.






















FINALLY !!!
So, if you need an activated iPhone.. What's the TIFF useful for?
Jailbreaking your activated iPhone.
Or jail breaking your unactivated phone ;) chicken before the egg maybe.

doesn't that allow you to run safari on an unactivated iPhone? :sly:
Wait, who shouldn't we be mad at if this bricks our iPhone? You weren't very clear about it
Hey! My iPhone is bricked! It's all your fault Engadget!!! :(
Haha, I kid, I don't even have an iPhone/iPod Touch! Seriously though, you might want to make it more clear next time... :P
no matter how clear they make it, there will still be someone that bricks it and blames them. wait and watch.
Then we can file a class action lawsuit!
Why did the Apple Fanboy cross the road?
To get to the Class Action Lawsuit!
No, ignorance and Windows Fanboys want the Class Action Lawsuit.
Apple Fanboys find excuses to think their gadgets are still cool and worth it.
No offense. I'm an Apple Fanboy too. It's the way we think.
Apple devices are cool, sure. Worth it, on the other hand... Maybe not.
Access Safari on an unactivated 1.1.1.

The best thing about this never-ending locked/unlocked cat and mouse game is that it gives Engadget some sort of scant justification to keep on knocking out iPhone stories on a near-daily basis.
It's like the gift that keeps on giving!
So what you're saying is this isn't newsworthy?
YES, Please create a seperate Apple blog or don't post about apple every second. If anyones really obssesed with apple they would head on over to TUAW!
If you don't like what Engadget writes about, then don't read Engadget.
It's that simple.
"so you're saying I shouldn't delete this file?"
no.
"no i shouldn't?"
right.
..
what are you doing?
"i was just putting my mouse cursor over it"
you're dragging it to the recycle bin
"so i shouldn't do that?"
it's an OS file, you need it for your computer to run.
"so i souldn't delete it?"
for the love of god.
I come to engadget to escape stupidity!
well, no... but a different type anyways.
I can't read tuaw if you just mirror their content.
"waaaah, this gadget site is posting about a really neat gadget."
I find it increasingly bizarre when people whine that a site posts a lot about a subject that is right in-line with their whole purpose.
"Stop posting so much, we'd rather have a nice stagnant site that only posts when something *I* want to read comes across."
|roll|
I don't care about personal handheld GPS units, or anything about sprint or verizon, or half the little digital cameras. Yet they post stuff about these daily. Odd that it doesn't occur to me to go into that post and bitch about it. Fruitcake.
So Apple related stories are like the herp?

Okay... who's going to be first to write up a quick tutorial for this? Full FS access is great and everything but how do I add 3rd party apps to it!
For those of us yet to get an iPhone (Canadians), does this mean that if you used iphone sim free you'll have 3rd party apps, iTunes Wi-fi store, etc on an unlocked device? I recall them saying their baseband flash was firmware proof, though I might be wrong. Anyone?
I am waiting for an easy way to hack the touch so we can add all the iphone apps!
Hopefully in the next few days - likewise I hope the 1.0.2 to 1.1.1 unlocked and jailbreaked will follow without bricking the iphone shortly!
"Here it is folks, the TIFF image we tested that exploits firmware v1.1.1, giving you full root level file access to your iPhone (without upgrading from v1.0.2) and iPod touch."
Is everybody forgetting. Yes, I may I use this to hack my own iPhone.
But I can use it to hack *other people's iPhones* and read their files. It's really odd I see iPhone users all over the place cheering for this exploit :)
hmm several people bricking their ipods... i only got as far as the TIFF, which made itunes, videos and store unusable and made all my pictures go byebye.
i'm gonna try more tomorrow, but to restore it all i did was hold home and power for a reeallly long time until the ipod showed the connect to itunes screen. then i plugged it in and started up itunes and it asked me to restore.
Apple should notice a Decrease in iPhone sales...
Only if we could notice an increase in peoples IQ, so no.
Here's to hoping the next update is just a patch, not a full rewrite. This way we maybe can Jailbreak, update to 1.1.2, and still have our Jailbreak...
i believe now is the time for a custom firmware for the iphone.
That is a great idea... Can you code it?? ;)
Now THAT is a revenue opportunity waiting to happen...
about time
When the TUTORIAL will be released as i have just bought Iphone and unfortunatly upgrad it to v1.1.1 I was completely Crazy!!!
LOL I guess they're not responsible if anything goes wrong huh?
Can we install 3rd party apps after we jailbreak the ipod touch?
Never seen people this thrilled about an vulnerability in their device
i wrote a tutorial on my website here

I am going to wait it out for now see how it goes with the apps and just stick to getting more music and movies on my ipod at http://www.ipodtunesdownloads.com I use for my ipod and My IPhone at http://www.ipod-vibez.com/iphone.html. But none the less I am happy about the jailbreak it a move in the right direction. Will there soon be one for the iTouch
wait....can you actually brick an ipod touch?
damn it - it bricked my 16GB iPod Touch. I'm an idiot. I'm serious. Don't try it....
Damn!! it bricked my ipod touch!
Now all I see is a pic of Jobs flipping the bird!!
I pretty much bricked my ipod touch. not that I'm blaming engadget. itunes is saying "the ipod "ipod" could not be restored. An Unknown error occurred. (-18)" um... any ideas? please?

What did one construction guy say to the other? "We'd better get a lot of mortar ready because a ton of iPhone BRICKS are heading our way."
I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down. "No you won't, wolfie boy. My house is made out of certified iPhone BRICKS.
iPhone bricks. You gotta love 'em. Every update, more bricks. By next year, there'll be a million bricks. Fools will never learn. They coulda had a BlackBerry instead.
