UK iPhone Launching with 1.1.2 Firmware, Jailbreak (TIFF) Broken

**Z00L** · 11-04-2007 05:05 AM

T3 got their hands on the new European iPhone, and to their delight (and dismay), the phone is pre-installed with firmware 1.1.2—which is newer than the 1.1.1 firmware we currently have in the states. Believe it or not, it's actually packing some new features. But before you ask, their early testing shows that current Jailbreak software is no longer functional. So that whole saga continues!

The biggest standard consumer-oriented change is probably that the phone supports 12 languages out of the box, along with special keyboards for French and German languages (we guess that the other languages see a more limited level of support).

There's also bundled free access to The Cloud Wi-Fi hotspots, which we've already seen in the European iPod Touch.

And like we said, no more iPhone hacking for a little while.

I think I've seen more than 12 language packs around these forums ...
And several keyboards... I personally use Russian and Chinese

We will still be able to downgrade to 1.1.1 when the iPhone starts shipping with 1.1.2 firmware I assume?

Looking forward to using Chinese!

PmgR - what I meant is that I'm using Russian keyboard and Chinese input method (iCosta is the name, i think) <b>now</b> - they are not present in 1.1.2 at all. Which, not surprisingly, again demonstrates to us the power of openness and the stupidity of Apple.
