Making the leap from 1.1.2 is easier than ever
- Jailbroken 1.1.2 phone
- Newest version of BSD Subsystem — version 2.0
- Latestest Update of Installer.app — version 3.0b10 (If you are not using the newest version installer will not work on 1.1.3)
- Phone connected via wifi (its a large download)
- Settings->General->Autolock SET TO NEVER
Refresh Your Installer Sources to See It
F.A.Q.
- I’m on 1.1.1, can’t I just install this from there? No. If you’re on 1.1.1, follow the guides to update to 1.1.2 jailbroken (and unlocked if you need it), THEN run this from Installer.
- I already did NateTrue’s jailbreak method. Is there a difference? Should I do this one? You don’t have to. Supposedly NateTrue’s method will break functionality needed to support official 3rd party apps when they come out in February, so it is a good idea to use this method instead.
- Ok, but how do I erase Nate’s method and use this one? You’ll have to use iTunes to downgrade all the way to 1.1.1, then follow guides to get back to a jailbroken 1.1.2, and then run this script.
- What about Google Maps’ new features? Do they work any better with this method? Just like NateTrue’s method, this does not update your baseband, just your firmware. So yes, you’ll still have the same issues with Google Maps not wanting to locate. The going method to fix this is install Navizon, open it and have it find you, then go back to Google Maps and it should work.
- Will my ringtones/sound/SSH/EDGE/mouthwash still work after I do this? Sure.
- What about my applications? Do I need to delete them? Will they still be there in 1.1.3? You don’t need to delete them, but you will need to reinstall them when you get to 1.1.3. NOTE: SummerBoard and Customize don’t work with 1.1.3 yet.
- Does this method clean out that 185 MB restore file it downloads? No. You’ll need to delete it still once you get to 1.1.3.
if you don’t want to use installer but would still like to update via the dev teams method we have MANUAL INSTRUCTIONS
THIS IS THE DEV TEAMS METHOD so the normal issues are there, some ppl it hangs at the end. IF you want to watch a log of whats going in while you are on 1.1.2 ssh in and run /Applications/Installer.app/Installer then use installer on your iphone to run the jailbreak. You will see a log of whats going on in the ssh window.
When completed and on 1.1.3 only if you having a problem syncing use scp to copy over syncfix.sh file from this archive to / directory of your iphone. The ssh in and run syncfix.sh. Your syncing problem will be fixed.

I suggest SSH’ing into the phone to keep an eye on things. Mine stayed on the “sandwich message” for close to two hours (the clock was still running on the top) but I was pretty sure the download was finished (even though I couldn’t see anything that was happening)
I eventually bit the bullet and restarted the phone which came up with 1.1.3 If I had SSH’ed into the phone I would have seen the update as it was happening and would have known when to restart the phone

someone told me today that it took them ~56 minutes or something, so i think it depends on your connection, but i didn’t/don’t suggest having ssh on there simply because it was giving trouble at the time to re-install/un-install once the soft-update to 1.1.3 was complete.
