Glad it worked out for you. I think the horizontal scroll takes some getting used to, but in the end I like it better than before. Maybe it’ll grow on you too. Thanks for the kind words too!

Thanks… Although… I preferred the old way which extra icons appeared (ie scrolling up down rather than pages of icons (left/right)… Oh well no big deal!

Thanks, this blog ROCKS!

Did you get past this and get updated?

“The iPhone “Barmish’s iPhone” could not be restored. An error occurred while reading from the device.”

Note: I am able to sync so my comp definately recognizes the iPhone…

I think I do remember seeing others have that issue – think it just resolved itself, finished downloading …

At the moment I am downloading the 1.1.1 update but it appears to have surpassed 152.3 MB, so it just says (now) 189.2 of 152.3 MB and it keeps going up…. Has this happened to others? Will it eventually stop?

Anyway, some answers:
I updated to 1.1.1 from pretty much your situation (1.0.2 jailbreaked and apps added, but not unlocked) and had no issues. There have been people whose phones have been ‘bricked’ when updating to 1.1.1, but reports suggest that this has happened in pretty rare cases, and does not affect ‘modded’ iPhones any more than non-modded ones.
So … with any luck the update to 1.1.1 should be fine for you.
As for not losing contacts, SMS etc., you’ll want to sync before updating, ensure your contacts are good in whatever your desktop client is for them, and you may want to look at this thread for further backup guidance:

After you update, you’ll need to use one of the jailbreak methods to get your phone ready to install apps again. Depending on your OS, there are various options – iFuntastic for Mac, for example. If you’re on Windows, here’s a link to a guide done by Tinman which I’ve used and many others have successfully:

Actually it’s two guides, as there is a shorter method available now than when I did this.
Hope this helps a bit – let us know how it goes …

My iPhone is on 1.0.2 and is jailbreaked using AppTap but is not unlocked (I am using AT&T)…

If I used iTunes to update to 1.1.1 what will happen? Will the phone be bricked? or will i just lose all the custom (native) apps? Will I lose all my contacts, SMS messages, etc? And if the update will work can I then just install installer.app using the instructions for 1.1.1?
