If you’ve been dying to run third-party apps on your iPhone but can’t get yourself to wait for official support third-party application support from Apple and you want the latest 1.1.3 iPhone firmware, there is a way to do the jailbreak but the process was a bit lengthy.

If you’re currently running the 1.1.2 firmware the Jailbreak Dev Team has just made the process a lot easier with their one-click jailbreak.

If you’re already running the 1.1.3 firmware you’ll need to go back to the 1.1.2 firmware first before you can do this, so the process for you will still be a bit of a pain (sorry). If you need to go back to 1.1.2 check out this post at Lifehacker for assistance.

Okay, back to 1.1.2 users.

Before you get started, make sure that you:

• Set your Auto-Lock feature to ‘Never’.
• Have a Wi-Fi connection (you’ll be downloading a 200MB file).
• Have at least 300MB of free space available on your iPhone.
• Have the latest version of Installer.app installed (v3.0b10).
• Have the newest version of BSD Subsystem (v2.0).

Once you’ve confirmed those, all you have to do is run the ‘1.1.3 Dev Team Jailbreak’ package in Installer.app from the ModMyiPhone repository.

Let it run and in roughly 20 minutes you’ll be running jailbroken 1.1.3 firmware. If it takes a bit longer than 20 minutes don’t start sweating right away…some report it takes up to 50 minutes.

If you don’t see the package in the repository, try refreshing your Installer sources.

For more information about this process check out this post at ModMyiFone.

After jailbreaking 1.1.3 you’ll need to manually enable the iPhone’s faux-GPS feature following these steps.

Before you start, please keep in mind that jailbreaking your iPhone may break support for official third-party applications when they start coming out, not to mention this process make break your iPhone.

If you try any of these steps, good luck and you’re on your own. I’m leaving my iPhone just the way it is–jailed and working.
