Nabend,
glücklicherweise ist das so nicht ganz korrekt.
Wenn man das Baseband, zB durch den korrekten Einsatz von pwnage hindert, ein Update zu erfahren, dann kann man sehr wohl mit etlichen Turbosims auch mit der Firmware 2.2 arbeiten, wenn auch diese firmware zu etlicher Kritik wegen Problemen führt. Sie verhindert u.a. das korrekte Funktionieren einiger 3rd-party-software...
was aber wohl eine der Absichten gewesen sein dürfte...

Hallo,
funktioniert nicht ist leider keine Fehlerbeschreibung ;-)
Wirf noch nicht das Korn ins Feldbett... Erstmal solltest Du in Ruhe schildern, wie Du Update/Jailbreak gemacht hast. Vielleicht ist es noch nicht zu spät... möglicherweise hast Du nur vergessen, "aktivieren" anzuhaken oder ähnliches... also, erst eine vernünftige Beschreibung und vielleicht ist was zu retten...
Gruss,
Abdul_Hassan

P.S. Saggy .... 210 Grad, sonst war es okay ;-)

Hi,

first congratulations on that fabulous job, you are doing! I think, it is just amazing.

I have a question concerning officially unlocked 3G iPhones. I have one of those here. The phone is from Belgium and I am in Germany. After I bought it, I just activated it using my German itunes-Account and it works ever since with an unofficial carrier. Currently the phone is on OS 2.1 (it came with it and it is now jailbroken with QuickPwn) and I would like to update to 2.2. I thought about upgrading using the vanilla ipsw and jailbreaking afterwards using Quickpwn again. However, on the internet there are rumors that 2.2 re-locks legally simlock-free phones if not upgraded from within the country they were bought (or at least from within such an iTunes -Account). One report is here: http://www.iphoneatlas.com/.... Also, Apple themselves claims in their list on the internet that Belgium iPhones are WITH a carrier lock (if you chose any other language than english. The tick is only not there in the english version of this list). So, do you know, if i would lose my legally paid for freeness of chosing any carrier, if I upgrade with the vanilla ipsw? Thanks for your help.

how about Pwnbuntu? but i doesen't have anything to do with Ubuntu.
iLinux might be a suggestive and easy to spell name.

No! Nothing with "pwn" in the title. Not only is stupid it's confusing. Still love ya dev team though!

Another thought on the name (although it could cause some confusion).

Pwn3g or Pwn3ge

Or... more esoteric...

RRCrossing

(A play on the acronym RRC or Radio Resource Control)

Sweet, When is there likely to be a ipod touch 2nd gen jailbreak? Wouldn't a jailbreak of a new ipod touch be easier and quicker than a 3g iphone unlock?? And me and many other people would love to have a jailbreak for the new ipod touch before the end of the year.

Hey i just got my iphone in mid november from the uk. I want to know how i could check my baseband since its still not activated yet. So its at the screen where it says EMERGENCY CALLS only. Any tips? Thanks!

Verizon is a CDMA network, not GSM. Supposedly the SIM chips they do offer (for world phones - only 2 or 3 of the whole lineup) are only for roaming outside the uS and will not work in the US, and if they did, you would pay the high roaming fee.

Does your VZW have a SIM card you can put into the iPhone?

Yes. Just use QuickPwn on your iPhone 2G to both jailbreak and unlock it.
