Update: Hitting more frequent than quick pick lotto… ZiPhone v2.3 is out! Details in the README.
Update: 2.2 bug fix release… Grab it below.
Update: Another day, another ZiPhone release — version 2.1 comin’ in hot… Changes include:
- corrected the “apple logo bug”
- removed -v option; ZiPhone now uses verbose mode by default
- added integrity check on zibri.dat
- added 2 .BAT files for windows
- updated README.txt
- the Windows GUI and OS X versions were not updated; but will work so long as you don’t specify -v
Update: I should mention ZiPhone v2.0 repaired the iPhone mentioned in this post; the one unable to receive calls. Solid app, cheers.
Update: ZiPhone 2.0 is out now. Quoting Zibri, “…the command line version, you will find a new option ‘-b’ be very careful with that! I take no responsibility if you brick your phone! ZiPhone -b will downgrade bootloader from 4.6 to 3.9, flash 4.03.13_G baseband version and unlock it (in one shot!).”
Experiencing difficulties with previous activation, jailbreak, and unlock methods? No longer! Forget all that tedious nonsense and enter Zibri’s ZiPhone. For real, it doesn’t get any easier than this…
Bypass activation and jailbreak any iPhone OS version. Unlock whatever baseband on boot loader 3.9 and 4.6 — that means 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 OOTB (out-of-the-box) also work! Just connect your phone via USB and run the app. It’s mentioned ZiPhone will revive many “dead” basebands too; so if you messed up a previous attempt, this will likely solve that issue.
Both Windows and Mac versions available.
Kudos to everyone involved making this possible.

tried it on iphone 112 otb - Works %100.00
also iphone 1.1.3 otb - Works %100.00
will this unlock 16GB iphone? anyone knows?
I believe it does…I’ll be getting one in the next few weeks…I’ll post the results in the forums…but I’ve seen people already claim success in different sites…
I’ve upgraded to 1.1.3 and jailbroke it but now I can’t transfer rented movies to my phone it works untill the end of the transfer, and then the whole movie erases at the end and a box pops up saying that you must be connected to the Internet to transfer rented movies and I am connected to the Internet. I even tried doing it on my friends jailbroke iPhone and the same thing happened I used ziphone to jailbreak. Any advice?
this is fantastic…excellent work to zibri and geohot for their individual efforts…you have both made many people very happy!
did NOT work for me. its stuck at “waiting for data”
How long did yours hang at loading zibri.dat ? mines been there for ages !!!
chris…are you using mac or windows?
windows xp pro SP2
it took 2 tries for me…I also had liveonecare antivirus on which delayed it a bit…do you have it in recovery mode before you begin? there are easy tutorials on http://www.iclarified.com with pics to get you through the process…
Does this work on a UK iPhone with the 1.1.3 update via iTunes?
LOL….just when you thought it was safe!…Ziphone version 2.0 is out!
ZiPhone 2.0 has been release already http://zibree.blogspot.com/
I have a 1.02 that I unlocked using Unlock. I have never upgraded. i would like to upgrade to 1.13. What would be the best way to do this? Should I revirginize, upgrade to 1.13 through Itunes and then run this program, or could I just upgrade a unlocked 1.02 to 1.13 then use this method?
hey guys i have a 1.1.2 upgraded to 1.1.3 tried this 3 times just seems to hang for a long time is this normal ??? i gave up for the time being until more info is around i have restored for now please post any info that might help

HELP ME MY IPHONE IS FROZE NOW AFTER THIS—-
after running ziphone my iphone no longer works correctly. the apple logo shows up on the screen and i cant do anything. now itunes dont reconize it and i cant go in to boot mode anymore. is there a way to make it work again
try turning off the phone and then holding the Home button while plugging it in and hold the Home button until it goes into recovery mode then just go into itunes and try and restore it.
this is bul shit
it fucked up ma phone
now it doesnt work
have you tried restoring it?
i cant
the apple logo is the only thing that comes up
try connecting the iphone to the computer and then holding power and home button after screen goes black let go of power and hold home button until you see a cd and a cord then just go into itunes and hit restore
dont worry many people have ran into this problem even i have all you do is go into recovery mode and from there you should be able to restore your iphone from itunes
well itried that but it doesnt work it just keeps restarting again and again
fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you must not be doing it correctly heres a youtube vid on how to put ur phone in recovery mode maybe it might help http://youtube.com/watch?v=fiTcKMZfyfk
ok i just tried that but it doesnt work itunes doesnt recognise it and it wont turn on
wat can i do?
if that didnt work there isnt much u can do,but u can try running ZiPhone again maybe it might recognize the iphone and fix it by correcting the problem this time around
tried that !!!!!!!!!!
its just keep saying searching for iphone
thats all
this is hella wack
u can always try and go to an apple store and tell them a bullshit story like “i was updating my iphone from 1.1.2 to 1.1.3 and it crashed” just hope they arent able to detect that it was an attempt to jailbreak it
well i did that too
and they told me no they cant do shit about it because it was damaged from inside
so im fucked
yeap i guess your s.o.l theres pretty much nothing you can do to unbrick it
yeah i guess so
but ama try and try to return it to the apple store
ok first you need to put the phone in dfu mode to be able to make itunes reconize it again, right after you will restore to 1.1.3 and use ziphone and you will be happy again. first turn your iphone on and when the apple logo is on the screen hold the power and home buttons at the same time for 4 secs and let go of the power and keep holding the home button also make sure you have it connected to the pc all this time is easier to tell when u have to let go of the home button cause u will hear windows reconize the usb again after that u will see you are on restore mode and can bring back your dear friend to life again. after restore you will have the activation screen on the iphone just run ziphone and you will be ok.
ok idid all t needs to do now all i see is the waiting to activation thing and it’s not activating at all plezzz help what can i do???
ok people i can now make calls again all i had to do is downgrade back to 1.1.1 then restore to 1.1.3 on itunes clean and every theing came back to life and if u want to jailbreak 1.1.3 to use installer just use ziphone 2.2 and hit jailbreak and u will see the installer yayyyyyyyyy :)
even if you see the apple logo you still have to keep both button pressed until you see the logo asking to connect to itunes. i ran in the same problem and i thought i fucked up mine also bc I always kept on releasing the buttons after the phone reset, but you need to hold them longer until you see the recovery and then use ziphone
ZiPhone 2.3 is out
I was wondering. I have an unlocked 1.1.1, do I have to update to 1.1.3 with Itunes prior to running ziphone? Will I have problems while updating to 1.1.3 if I have to do that?
yes you have to update to 1.1.2 or 1.1.3 and i recommend you go and download the firmware from the download section on this site then put your iphone in DFU mode and press shift+Restore and navigate to the update and then just wait for it to update and jailbreak/unlock using ziphone
wow ZiPhone 2.4 is now out
for ZiPhone 2.4 with a gui heres a link http://henry.sandi.net/students/2008/wclark/i/ZiPhone2.4GUI.zip
nvm it is down already
Well, I’m f’d up. I tried to dfu mode my unlocked 1.1.1 and connect to itunes to update to 1.1.3. It failded the update, like it used to say when we used to do the old update style. Failed but still done. Well, I did the full automatic.bat and it said wait 4 minutes, well, 15 minutes later, no change in anything, so I quit the program to do it again. now my phone only loads terminal code, unable to go to dfu mode. Now what????
Well as a follow up to my devestation. I gave my phone to my friend to try a futile attempt to fix it on his mac, I was using PC. Well, he brought it back 10 minutes later factory fresh, with 1.1.3 on it. I reluctantly used ziphone again, 10 minutes later, I had a activated, jailbroken and unlocked iphone, and a happy person again :)
hey guys. i have a n00b question plz somebody help me out!!
i have a 1.1.1 iphone unlocked. is it possible to upgrade it to 1.1.3 and still have it unlocked? is this the tool to do it?
zeli yes you can restore to 1.1.3 and use ZiPhone to unlock it again
nub question>

noodles you have to run ziphone from a command prompt
I posted a step by step guide to unlock your iPhone easily starting with Ziphone v2.4. Check out my article at pcwizkid.blogspot.com
Cheers
no i dont how come i can run 2.3 from the icon i just clikc on it and it opens up the program but this one dont well if u need to open up with the command what is it???
well since you dont know what a command prompt is i would recommand you get 2.4 click on FULL AUTOMATIC.bat file if you want to (jailbreak, unlock, activate) or if you want to just (activate and jailbreak) the FULL AUTOMATIC (NO UNLOCK).bat file make sure you restore your phone to 1.1.3 first
do you need interbet to use this gui

ZiPhone 2.4 GUI
http://rapidshare.com/files/93548461/ZiPhone2.4GUI.rar.html
silly thing to ask but how do I know what BL I have I have an iPhone v1.1.1 unlocked useing jailbreakme.com (when it was so easy LOL) and could I still us my t-mobile sim I used iPhone sim free for that
check the 4th and 5th digits of your serial number if it is 42 and below then you have a 3.9 and if it is 44 you might have a 4.6 and if it is above 44 then it is 4.6 but ZiPhone will work with whatever bootloader you have
ok cool thanks
Umm quick quesion… im pretty new to hacking so how do i use it
Just download ZiPhone and open ZiPhoneGUI and if you want to unlock you click the do it all button and if you just want to jailbreak you either click the don’t unlock or jailbreak if your a legal customer of iPhone’s carriers
JAJAJAJAJAJ

Hi could ne1 suggest me how to upgrade from 1.1.2 to 1.1.3 ?
which serial numbers are safe to buy if u wanna hack a 1.1.3 ootb 16GB iPhone now?
My iPhone crashed and I could not get it to reboot, it just hangs on the apple logo.
I reloaded my iPhone to 1.1.4 and used latest ZiPhone kit {after purchasing it :-)} to unlock and jailbreak the phone and it worked!
I am absolutley thrilled at the ease of use ZiPhone is built with for unlocking an iPhone.
The current problem I am experiencing is that iTunes is not picking up my iPhone? Please can you advice me what to do, thanks.
restored my iPhone using iTunes, then I ran ZiPhone again and iTunes is now picking up my iPhone again.
thanks for the awesome app! worth every South African Rand!
