102 OTB bricked?

My 1.0.2 OTB iPhone is kinda bricked. I have unlocked it. then updated to 111 and later on to 112 (anysim). All worked fine. I wanted to update to 113 and read it would be best to downgrade to 111, jailbreak, oktoprep and update to 112, jailbreak, unlock en then do the DEVteam update to 113. I managed to get upto the 112 unlock... AnySIM gave an error that it could not unlock the iPhone. After that the phone showed me the carrier I have, but could not make any calls... just a spinning circle on screen. So I downgraded to 111 again and tried to jailbreak it... but jailbreakme.com does not work anymore.. it kicks out my browser imediately.

After restoring to 111 twice in a row, without doing anything in between the restores I managed to do the jailbreakme.com part. I then downgraded the baseband from 04_02_13_G to 04_01_13_G (if I say it correctly) from the tools from i.unlock.no. Then restored the 111 firmware... and guess what? Again no jailbreakme.com anymore.
Maybe I should have virginized? Restored many times now, and did the #*307# part (know it by heart now)... no cigar. As soon as I click 'install appsnapp' I see it load the jailbreakme.com/files/y.tiff and switch back to the emergency call part... I left it for half an hour, nothing happens

Downgrading to 102 wont work.. gives an instant error, couple of seconds after start.
Restoring to 112 is no use either, the .jar method requires the oktoprep first.

Your problem with jailbreakme.com is perhaps due to iTunes needing to see the phone first - connect it, and let it prompt you to activate. Then, jailbreakme.com should work.

The other suggestion is that sometimes the phone doesn't reboot itself. Try rebooting it manually; or perhaps try i.unlock.no instead.

if you want to restore to 1.0.2 you have tu use ibrickr.
anyway its your lucky day, you can just restore to 1.1.3 and use the zibri method to jailbreak and unlock ;)

Are you sure that method works? What I read is that you need to be on 111, then to 112 and then to 113 with bootloader 3,9 iPhones.

Hooking up my iPhone to iTunes before clicking jailbreakme.com helped, I then could run Anysim1,1 without any problems. Installed Oktoprek, updated to 112, jailbreaked with the .jar and ran Anysim 1.2.1.u and AGAIN it crashed while writing the firmware.

I have no idea what more I can do (I did the virginizer, is there any more I can do?)

it is probably crashing because wen in 1.1.2 you are not putting the phone in airplane mode... and even if you are, go ahead and jump to 1.1.3 and use Zibri's new method...

works like a charm!!

just upgrade to 1.1.3 , the zibri's method is for BL 4.6 as yours :)

Thanks for the info.
I think I did have airplane mode on. Anyways.
So I can just restore to 113 using iTunes and then run Zibri's tool... (I am on OSX, and I understand that he is still working on that version?). I managed to run 111 again at the moment.
So should I do a restore or an update to 113?
Oh, I have a 3.9 bootloader iPhone.
Guess I'll stick around on 111 till Zibri's method is cristallized out

Excuse me for asking here, but somehow the routing to the servers running hackint0sh has changed last month. So I cannot search or anything. It is even hard to post here... takes me about 10 minutes just to get to the homepage, and frequent time outs.
