OTB 1.1.2 iPhone unlock: TurboSim works!

December 1st, 2007 macgeek View Comments

If you are impatient and can’t wait a software unlock for your 1.1.2 OTB iPhone,
you can still unlock your iPhone with the TurboSim method.

It has been confirmed, it works for the 1.1.2 iPhone OTB !!!

BUT don’t expect it to be the eternal unlock solution for further firwmare updates!
TurboSim unlocking method is based on a firmware exploit that could be fixed by Apple.

TurboSim is available at Bladox.com for 59 EUR

You will need a piece of software for this unlock method.

OTB 1.1.2 iPhone unlock is coming soon!

November 25th, 2007 macgeek View Comments

Some more interesting news in the battle against out-of-the-box 1.1.2 iPhones!
Here is a small clarification of the problem, and the current status.

All the US iPhones that came on week 45 and after have the 1.1.2 firmeware,
with the new bootloader version 4.6. Those phones can still be jailbroken and activated,
but there is no software sim unlock solution yet.

The new 4.6 bootloader has fixed the exploit allowing to run unsigned code,
reflash modem baseband firmware. This new bootloader must be analysed, so it
has to be dumped!

TA_MOBILE from Vietnam has successfully dumped it!

Files are available!

T-Mobile will unlock iPhones!

November 21st, 2007 macgeek View Comments

The German operator Deutsche Telekom announced today that it was going
to sell the iPhone without contract, at the cost of 999 euros, following a decision
of the magistrates’ court of Hamburg.

Deustche Telekom will also propose to the customers having already acquired
an iPhone with a contract to UNLOCK their phone, it indicated in an official statement.

I’m curious about the unlock method they will use as there is no unlock for 1.1.2 yet!
Maybe an official unlock will leak soon!

You gotta love Europe!
