Add 1.1.3 new features to iPhone 1.1.2

iphone 1.1.3

You should probably know about iPhone next firmware 1.1.3 new feature from . I think most of all will not upgrade to 1.1.3 even it is available because this firmware update probably bricks unlocked iPhone 1.1.2. Here is a short tutorial to show you how to enhance existing iPhone 1.1.2 with next firmware’s features.

Note you must know how to jailbreak iPhone and use Installer.app. If you are not, you may wish to take a look of the iPhone ultimate guide page.

1. Enhance the SMS function with iSMS

The iPhone’s SMS function is weak, even sending SMS to multiple people is not allowed. From the Installer, you can install iSMS tool. The iSMS is from China and enhance the SMS function of iPhone. You can send the SMS to multiple people easily by tapping “+” button. You can also forward the SMS to multiple people through iSMS. iSMS also comes with search function. A must tool for every iPhone user.

2. GPS function with Navizon

From iPhone 1.1.3, Google Map comes with Locate Me feature which shows where you are right now. Navizon uses a similar technology which detects your location using nearby cellular or Wi-Fi signal station. You need to create an account on Safari after you install it from Installer.app.

3. Add web apps to home screen with Web 2.0 site

In iPhone 1.1.3, you can bookmark your favourite website to main home screen. You can actually do the same in iPhone 1.1.2. Access iPhone Apper from desktop PC, than input the necessary information including favourite site’s URL, custom icon and the bookmark title. You can now push the “App Me” button to generate a program.

Upload the program to iPhone’s “/Application” folder and restart your iPhone. You will see the favourite URL on screen now. It works just like iPhone 1.1.3.
