iPhone 1.1.3 jailbreak released
Posted by in jailbreak, iphone, phe, dev team, rk, itunes on 10 28th, 2008| icon3
Well, the iPhone Dev Team has done it again. A working jailbreak for 1.1.3 is finally here.

STATEMENT OF RISK

As all upgrades are risky, this one is doubly so. You may have to restore your phone using iTunes and start again if it fails. Make sure to back up first!

Let's continue

This jailbreak, like the 1.1.2 jailbreak, comes as an upgrade. This means you need to have a 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 jailbroken phone already, before you can begin.

QUESTIONS? See the FAQ

Official Jailbreak release works for iPod Touch, and is easier to do. Go here for that.

Update - unlocked phones appear to remain unlocked and work properly after the update, according to scattered reports.

If your iPhone has never been unlocked, downgrading from 1.1.3 will leave you bricked until you upgrade back to 1.1.3, as far as I can tell. The phone (even with an authentic AT&T SIM) reports an Incorrect SIM while iTunes says there's no SIM at all, when you've downgraded back to 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 (1.0.x untested).

If your phone was unlocked, the baseband upgrade fails on 1.1.3, so you will not have this problem but will not get 1.1.3 to work.

Obviously this may change once Apple releases the firmware officially but I do not count that as likely.

Return iPhone owners name
Posted by in iphe, iphone, itunes, aar, array, alexander on 10 28th, 2008| icon3

You can use NSHost.
you can return name(string) or names(array)

so if you return the array of names, what mine does is return 3 values.
1. "iPhone"
2. "Aaron Alexander's iPhone"
3. "localhost"

you prob want #2, which seems to be what the name is in itunes for your iphone.

Strip the first 0x800 bytes from your >= 1.1.1 firmware ramdisk

Run:
openssl enc -d -in ramdisk.dmg -out de.dmg -aes-128-cbc -K 188458A6D15034DFE386F23B61D43774 -iv 0

Ignore the error. Then there will be some garbage, signatures and certificates, at the end of the file. Remove it and mount your ramdisk.

Why would this key be published without any explanation of what it is? Apple knows what it is, not telling us how to use it doesn't serve a purpose for anyone. I don't know exactly what this key is or where it came from. But I do know it decrypts ramdisks :)

Nice job to Zibri, the dev team, and whoever owns Austin Heap for finding this key, I'd love to see the hack used. Sadly this will not help us unlock BL 4.6 phones, or sign our own SDK apps; sign anything for that matter. But hopefully this key is deeply embedded in the iPhone, and decrypting all future ramdisks will be a piece of cake.
