Hello,

First of, i apologize if this situation has been answered, but I have been searching the forums and everything I found was not specific to my particular situation.

I have a phone that was a virgin 1.1.1 when I bought it. I then activated it out of the box via iTunes with a 2 year contract (like every good new iPhone owner is supposed to do)

Despite having an "authorized" account, I wanted to be able to use the sim from my old ATT phone until I could give out the new phone number. To accomplish this, I did the jailbreak (from www dot jailbreakme dot com). That went fine. I then installed SSH and AnySim 1.1 via the app_tap installer. I ran Anysim 1.1, which initially indicated it installed successfully, but did not work. I tried installing AnySim 1.1 again, but got an error before it completed. Since I didn't really NEED to use my old ATT sim, I just popped the orignal (and activated) iPhone sim back in the phone. All has worked fine for me since, but since I will not have the need to use any other sim in the phone again I would like to just update to 1.1.2 via iTunes and leave the phone without modifications.

Now that you have the background, my question is this: Can I simply install the 1.1.2 update (and any other future updates) from iTunes, or do I need to do a restore through iTunes first? Or am I just hosed and have to stick with what I have now?

Thank you in advance to anyone that can help me with this specific situation.

1. Virginize your 1.1.1 baseband

2. Run Oktoprep via Installer

3. Update to 1.1.2 via iTunes, after update leave iPhone connected till iTunes "sees it" then close iTunes.

4. Jailbreak (http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/1.1.2-jailbreak.zip)

there is no need to virginize the baseband.
