How-To: Unlocking Apple iPhone, Easy as 1.1.4

On the chance it might help someone else, here are the steps we followed to successfully upgrade to the v1.1.4 firmware release.

Particulars:

• Apple MacBook, latest version of operating system/updates (Leopard 10.5.2)
  
• Latest version of iTunes (v7.6.1)
  
• Day One iPhone w/3.9BL, v1.1.3 with the latest Baseband and Unlock'd to run on T-Mobile (T-Mobile SIM installed the entire time.)

Steps Followed:

1. Used iTunes to Synch/Backup the iPhone, before beginning
   
2. Once synched and backed up:
   
3. Restored to v1.1.4 using iTunes
   
4. Once restored to v1.1.4, closed iTunes
   
5. Downloaded "ZiPhone-1.1.4_by_JBLP.zip" (a modified version of ZiPhone) from this link.
   
6. Unzipped downloaded file, and executed "./ziphone -a -j" to Activate, Jailbreak and install the Installer application. NOTE: This process took about one (1) minute to complete.
7. Set "Auto Lock" to never in Settings.
   
8. Configured / Established Wi-Fi access.
   

Installed requisite software packages:

1. Launched Installer application and refreshed "Sources" to ensure most recent applications.
   
2. Once "Sources" successfully refreshed, applied any/all available "Updates" and exited Installer application, to ensure updates applied.
   
3. Re-Launched Installer application and confirmed no additional updates were available.
   
4. Installed BSD Subsystem and exited Installer application, to ensure updates applied.
   
5. Re-Launched Installer application and confirmed BSD Subsystem is installed and that no additional updates were available.
   
6. Added http://installer.iClarified.com to "Sources" and relaunched the Installer application, to installation/updates applied.
   
7. Re-Launched Installer application and refreshed "Sources" to confirm that the iClarified source is installed and that no additional updates were available.
   

Unlocked the iPhone, for use on networks other than the Death Star.

1. Launched Installer application and the 'IClarified" folder from the Install tab/page
   
2. Installed the "Unlock (1.1.4) application. NOTE: During this process, we received a popup asking me which Wi-Fi network to join. We simply selected my Wi-Fi network (the one previsouly setup in step #6 above) and the process completed without issue. This process took about five (5) minutes to complete.
3. Exited Installed application and rebooted phone.
   

Final Results:

• Network = T-Mobile (USA)
  
• Version = 1.1.4 (4A102)
  
• Modem Firmware = 04.04.05_G
  
• IMEI = correct
• iTunes = recognizes phone w/correct version. Synchs without issue (190.5 MB of "Other" prior to any synch, restoration of data.)
• Telephone = fully functional, unlocked and running T-Mobile
• SMS = fully functional
• YouTube = full functional
• Maps / Locate Me = fully functional
• Internet / Safari = fully functional
• Weather = fully functional
• Stocks = fully functional

There is a little bit of redundancy built-in, if you read/follow each step as outlined, but we consider this to be a good thing as it errors on the side of caution. Enjoy!
