Though he stressed once again that its merely an iOS 4.3.1 compatibility fix for already unlock-able basebands by the current ultrasn0w version. No newer baseband unlock support will be added for either iPhone 4 or 3GS.

NCK iPhone 4 Unlock For Basebands 02.10.01 & 03.10.01 [UPDATE]

<Category: Apple, iPhone> Only 1 comment

We all know how hard Dev-Team has been working on coming up with an iPhone 4 unlocking solution for basebands 02.10.01 & 03.10.01 by updating ultrasn0w for many months now. They had also hinted previously to have found iPhone 3G/3GS unlock vectors while on the hunt for an iPhone 4 unlock. However as of now, the Dev-Team isn’t revealing much about their progress on the expected NCK iPhone 4 unlock or an ETA for its release. For those who don’t know, the NCK unlock is a new method discovered for unlocking iPhone 4 which is found to be only of 40 Bits (5 digits) which can theoretically be cracked with a brute force attack.

You can now replicate all the new features of iOS 4.2 on older Apple devices such as iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPod Touch 1G and iPod Touch 2G with a custom firmware called “whited00r”. You can get full support for your old iPhone / iPod touch with the whited00r project which easily lets you install, jailbreak as well as unlock a pseudo- iOS4 including the devices not supported officially by iOS 4 like iPhone 2G and iPod Touch 1G since the firmware is actually based on v3.1.x.

China Telecom Employees Unlock Verizon CDMA iPhone 4!

<Category: Apple, iPhone> No comment

This surely comes as a pleasant surprise for CDMA carriers as some employees of China Telecom seem to have hacked the CDMA Verizon iPhone 4 to make it work on their network. Though the CDMA iPhone 4 has already been jailbroken with greenpois0n but no unlock solution has yet been released or announced. It will be interesting to see how Dev-Team hackers react to this news. It is quite possible they may give us a sneak peak into their “work in progress” regarding the Verizon iPhone unlock.

Jailbreak & Unlock For iOS 4.2.5 On Verizon iPhone 4 Won’t Be Easy!

<Category: Apple, iPhone> No comment

The first ever non-GSM iPhone was announced today by Verizon i.e the CDMA iPhone 4. We also know by now that this newest iPhone is running iOS 4.2.5, something not yet found on any current iOS device. So what does this mean to the jailbreaking / unlocking community? Well, its basically not the iOS which is gonna be a problem since Geohot’s bootrom level exploit found in both limera1n and greenpois0n jailbreak tools can pwn all the current iPhones, iPods and iPads on any future iOS firmware updates, be it iOS 4.2.5, iOS 4.3 or beyond. The real problem lies with the updated hardware of the new Verizon iPhone 4.
