So as I reported before, it was all working great except for Gmaps and perhaps other things. So I decided to do an updated via ITunes to 1.1.3 and then downgrade to 1.1.1 and update again. Following instruction here all was going well until I started ITunes and it told me that there is an “unknown error” and it couldn’t restore to 1.1.1 so I spent next hour trying to figure it out, when I finally got it (I had to tell iphuc in windows to disconnect)I was able to go back to 1.1.1, then I started the update to jailbrake 1.1.3 again and in the middle installer told me that there is an error and I had to start all over again. So after another hour I had 1.1.3 on and jailbroken, but phone didnt have any bars and phone functionality was gone. Following netkas mini guide I uploaded the lockdownd to appropriate dir. After that the phone told me that it needs to be activate, well since I do have ATT, but I didnt want to activate on ATT (not to loose my discount) I was kinda stuck. After few minutes of self debate I decided to just go for it and activate it on the secound line (discount applies to the primary line supposedly) so I went to my OSX86 install on the same laptop and started ITunes, put in my phone number and guess what it tells me “market down, retry in 4 hours) great just my luck. So I decide to go to sleep and in the morning activate. Morning well phone is activate on ATT checked my OLAM and ATT shows IPhone plan on second line and discount still on the primary line, hewww maybe I`m safe. Ok lets restore the phone (I made sure I synced to ITunes before I upgraded) hmmm it doesnt have the right IPhone in the restore list on the OSX86. Thats strange so I got to windows and I do see the right phone in the list, but last sync date is 10/2007. Wow so now I lost my pics, my calendar events and my mail settings. So over all great night. So now its time to go back to 1.1.3(I downgraded again since I was trying to bring data back). Wish me luck
