i am currently on 1.1.1 (04.01.13_G) and would like to update to 1.1.4.
i heard i should just restore to 1.1.4 via itunes, but didn't find confirmation so far. i wanted to restore anyways so is this the way to go?
also, is there a way to backup my text messages and "keychain" items (wifi passwords etc.) on a mac? can i just keep some of my *.plists?
thanks a ton.

Yeap... that's the way to go. Just restore (not update) to 1.1.4 via iTunes, then jailbreak, activate and unlock. The easiest way for me was ZiPhoneOSX.app.Quote:

In my case the second scenario worked perfect. ;-)
As the backing up text messages goes...
there is an app. that does that (as far as I remember it collects them and sends via email). However you'll have to "find" it since I never needed it I don't remember the source (rep) it's on ;-)
thanks man, i was about to go with iplus - is ziphoneosx.app better?
how about the backup of *.plist-files? is this possible somehow?
I went through the same procedure a few weeks ago. I restored to 1.1.4 using iTunes, then used iNdependence to Jailbreak and Unlock. It installed SSH and BSD for me. I then used iTunes to sync all the backed up stuff (including SMS). I heard somewhere that you were supposed to start fresh and not re-sync, but I've had no trouble with that. Not sure about how to back up "keychain" stuff though.
i didn't know that itunes does re-sync almost all data back to your iphone after you restore to the current firmware. i did get my sms, call history, wallpapers, notes and apparently all my "keychain" stuff, my wifi passwords and whatnot.
activated, jailbreaked :p and unlocked with iplus2.0.
worked like a charm.
hi guys, if i clilck restore and then click restore upgrade, does my sms messages back up automatically with itunes?
