ok, one more: while upgrading you always get the new firmware with the new baseband, bootloader always stays as is

volkspost. i think you've throughly cleared that up for me.

my issue now is this 1.1.1 jailbreak. i've followed the instructors as per http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=358 guide.

i install appsnapp and it just restarts and does nothing. its been like this for over 5-10mins. any ideas?

if i press the home button or power off and back on again, i just get the "slide for emergency", not slide to unlock

edit: to add, im using a UK Vodafone sim thus keeps coming up with "incorrect sim"

AppTapp does not work at 1.1.1. Only works when you downgrade first - would not recommend this one.
Are you still on 1.1.1?
Are you on Mac or Windows?

i will guide you, please just answer the questions.

Sorry, I had to grab some food.

Get iLiberty for Windows here
http://theiphoneproject.org/index.ph...c=select&id=14

This one is from another thread, applies to your situation

1.1 Install iLiberty+
1.2 Start iLiberty+
1.3 Goto iLiberty menu "Tools" and select "Options". A new window pops up
1.4 Select "Check repo at startup" and hit "OK"
1.5 Quit iLiberty and start it again
1.6 iLiberty will refresh the repo lists via Internet connection
1.7 Hit tab "Advanced" (on top)
1.8 Hit tab "Available on Repo" (on the bottom)
1.9 Activate (check box) "BSD Subsystem" and "Installer"
1.10 Hit botton "Download" (bottom right)
1.11 iLiberty will download the two. Tab "Local" (on the bottom) should read "Local (2)" now
2.2 Hit tab "Local (7)" on the bottom
2.3 Activate (check box) "BSD Subsystem" and "Installer"
2.4 Bottom tab "Selected" should read now "Selected (2)"
2.5 Hit top tab "Standard".
2.6 Activate (check box) "Jailbreak" (already activated) and "Activate" - nothing else!
2.7 Connect the iPhone to your PC
2.8 If your photo app starts, just quit it
2.9 If iTunes starts, don't quit it, just "park" it in the task bar. If iTunes does not start automatically, start it manually and park it in the task bar
2.10 In iLiberty hit the button "Go for it!"
2.11 iLiberty will pop up a window telling you something like "We are going to reboot device into recovery..."
2.12 Do what the dialog says: You have to disconnect the iPhone (count to 5 or 6) and then reconnect. Hit the "OK" button then.
2.13 Let iLiberty do it's job, text will scroll on your iPhone screen, you will end with a jailbroken, activated iPhone at 1.1.1 all needed software for virginizing on it.
2.14 iTunes might popup every now and then, just drop it back to the task-bar

Please report back when done

Yea. This time put it in DFU mode to restore. Shut the iPhone down while connected and iLiberty open. In "Other Tools" there is an option called "Enter DFU mode". Hit that one, then restore to 1.1.1 in iTunes and give it another shot.

OK. Jailbroken (and Activated?)

Ready for the next step. Thanks so far by the way. Dont think I could do this without your help!
