    What is this?
  • ben · 1 year ago
    so what does it mean to someone who doesn't have a clue about anything hacking or programming whatsoever?
  • magixien · 1 year ago
    Good work dev.team continu!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • psedog · 1 year ago
    Apparently you made a big step forward. Unfortunately my iPhone won't let me see it :(
    I'll have to wait till I get home.

    Keep up the good work. We all support your efforts.
  • German_Guy · 1 year ago
    We really look forward to the day our new Iphones finally will be unlocked. We all apreciate you are working hard to reach this day in near future.
    Thanks
  • tfeh · 1 year ago
    umm can anyone explain please with simple words.. we r not getting it :D..

    keep it up
  • Jeff. · 1 year ago
    Sure.

    The Baseband processor checks what is in FLASH memory to see if it is digitally signed with Apple's key before it runs the radio code or loads the "Profile" from there. The radio code signed by Apple checks the Carrier is the same as what the Profile, also signed by Apple, requires.

    This video shows that DevTeam is able to trick the Baseband processor into running their own code. It shows them running a bunch of things, including their own tool (not signed by Apple) showing the list of tasks the Nucleus OS which is what the Baseband runs. Much like a list of programs running on Darwin/Mac OS which runs on the iPhone's ARM processor (the one you actually interact with).

    This means they "should" be able to figure out how to load code into the Baseband that doesn't check which Carrier the SIM card is for OR load a Profile that allows any SIM card. Either would be an "Unlock".

  • bilalk007 · 1 year ago

    And the million dollar question:

    "How far are You from the 3G unlock?"
  • MasterDrive · 1 year ago
    Is this video, telling us that iPhone 3G can now unlock using this tools?
  • spooky · 1 year ago
    i dont exactly get it but i think it has to be something (very) nice about the 3g unlock xD

    greets und thanks a LOT dev team!
  • OPK · 1 year ago
    hehe annotated for my viewing pleasure....i love it
    Go-Hard Dev-Team!
  • Job · 1 year ago

    I understand this will help to unlock, but how "great" is this baseband tool in this view?
    I have no idea?

  • Buzzz · 1 year ago
    Please , what is this music???
    Thanks
    Great Job and Thanks Dev-Team
  • Jere Hakala · 1 year ago
    Try watching the video, stupid.
    The name of the song in end of the video.
  • pytey · 1 year ago
    Buzzz: It is "Boards Of Canada - Trapped" which is a unreleased remix of Colonel Abrams original "Trapped". Boards of Canada released it on a bootleg tape, it wasn't released officially.
  • cdunx · 1 year ago
    Wow. I was so surprised that they used something off Old Tunes.
  • pytey · 1 year ago
    cdunx: "A Few Old Tunes" is one of my all time faves, "Trapped" seemed so apt, so I chose this one to use as the soundtrack ;-)
  • operator · 1 year ago
    I like BoC, but this particular remix is pretty uninspiring. All they've done is taken the a cappella version of Trapped, slowed it down, and thrown a bassline and a breakbeat over top of it. So much more feeling put into the original song...

    Anyways, nice update. Best of luck with the newfound baseband exploit!
  • pytey · 1 year ago
    operator: "All they've done is...." ? That is the whole point. The remix is simple and minimal. I listened to (and loved) the original growing up and I've heard it remixed a hundred or so different ways as the a cappella was often used by various house DJs in live sets. BoC are from the same music scene that I enjoyed and was a part of, and lots of their tracks have trigger feelings of nostalgia, so for me very very inspiring. I love it.
  • tfeh · 1 year ago
    lol those who are not into programming are so much reading Chinese with no clue on what does this mean!

    Explanation ppl!!

  • samalabad · 1 year ago
    I see a sim task. Is that what you need to break?
  • MuscleNerd · 1 year ago
    Yep -- good eye! The sim task and sec tasks are the most interesting of the bunch.
  • samalabad · 1 year ago
    Thanks, I hope you break those god damn tasks.

    What does sec stand for?
  • current · 1 year ago
    Where can I donate to support your iPhone 3G unlocking efforts?
  • MuscleNerd · 1 year ago
    See the last text frame of the video :)
  • current · 1 year ago
    Hm, yeah, seen it but is that a paypal name? I seem to be missing something crucial here ;)
  • fryke · 1 year ago
    /dev/null is the UN*X equivalent of an a$$hole, i.e. they do *not* want any donations.
  • someone · 1 year ago
    wrong.
    null means "nothing".
    /dev/null is like a blackhole, any files or folders put into /dev/null will be disappeared.
  • current · 1 year ago
    lol, cheers fryke!
  • MuscleNerd · 1 year ago
    heh that was aggressive way of saying it :) But yes we don't want or accept donations...thanks for the sentiment though :)
  • current · 1 year ago
    Anyhow, those efforts are greatly appreciated and I'd like to contribute my share. :-)
  • An Ipod Touch 2G user · 1 year ago
    DEv Team is hving a amazing progress again.......... this means that the iphone 3g will be unlock around this month............. whick means ipod touch 2g will come sooner too.......... all people turning to work on it

    Blessing from whole world
  • Slider · 1 year ago
    Is that now a 3g UNLOCK ?
  • Fgreenwe410 · 1 year ago
    This video is telling me to hold up buying the g1 lol.
  • Deadpixel · 1 year ago
    To those that dont know what this video is about, this is what i've understood so far:
    -You can now execute/install your own (not in appstore available) software on iPhon 3G
    (in the video you see "iPhone 3G via SSH", but OpenSSH Server isn't available for iPhone
    (yet?) it can only be installed by something like installer.app or so)

    greetings from Germany

    KEEP UP THAT GOOD WORK GUYS!!!
  • MuscleNerd · 1 year ago
    That's on the s5l main application CPU. This demonstration (and ultimately, the unlock) reside on the s-gold radio CPU.
  • Julian · 1 year ago
    That has been available forever, the video shows how they are able to inject code in the baseband. The baseband is the chip that talks to, among other things, the phone carrier. So injecting stuff on the baseband can make it carrier agnostic, and thus giving us a full unlock (which is useful for instance, if you want to fly to another country and keep using your phone with a local sim provider, instead of roaming, something that should be allowed from the beginning, but that telcos suffer from).

    Very classy of you guys.
  • JAD1 · 1 year ago
    Yeah, you know what? These guys ARE classy. No donations accepted, all that hard work, and they always keep a sense of humour. I'm still holding out for the 2G iPod jb, (my country sells the phones already unlocked) but I sure do appreciate all the other stuff you're doing too. It's pretty darn entertaining and very awe inspiring too. This is real hacking in the traditional and best sense of the word.

    good job dev team...
    People leave them a little space... Members of dev team are people too they want to live, not just work for your jailbreaks and unlocks, I gues....
  • The Puni$her · 1 year ago
    Hey guys this is great news!! The unlock will be released very soon

    Here is an explanation from: http://gizmodo.com/5068884/iphone-3g-baseband-b...

    Get ready, because the iPhone 3G unlock is coming to an iPhone 3G near you. The iPhone Dev Team have been able to break in the baseband processor. As you may remember from the first-generation iPhone unlock, this is big news because it means they have access to the core of the system, which gives them the ability to fully manipulate the iPhone 3G hardware and, therefore, unlock it. They gave us all the technical details and posted a demo of it in action:

    This is a video of a custom application running on the iPhone 3G baseband, which is big news.

    Nucleus is the operating system that runs on the PMB8878 baseband processor, we are using minicom running on the iPhone to talk to the basband via AT commands, the AT command shown is a custom AT command that has been inserted into the PMB8878 that starts an application on the baseband, one of the things that this application does is to lists the tasks (processes) that are running within Nucleus.

    Now it's just a matter of time before they come with the unlock and, at last, total carrier independence on compatible 3G networks.

    Wish you the best from lebanon! GO DEV TEAM, DEV-TEAM!

    Hey MuscleNerd - Big Thanks for taking to the time to explain stuff to us (and rest of the Dev Team too!)

    Some of us are tech geeks, but have NO IDEA, how some of the carrier stuff works. You and all the dev team put up with us asking questions, and the answers are appreciated!

    I may not be able to do what you do, but I love hearing the bits about how you do things and what it all means.

    So keep "splainin' Lucy"! :-P

  • Kampfschaf · 1 year ago
    Just came back from a nice weekend to see this nice video!!! Marvelous! Thank you so much! Can't wait to call someone with my 3G. I was very unsure about the possibility of an unlock for a long time (keeping in mind, that the 3G was just released in July, of course)...I think I can sleep a lot better now... ;)

    To all the iPod 2G owners I'd like to say: Be patient! Be grateful for the nice work, dev team has accomplished so far! Remeber: The time between the iPhone 3G release and the moment you watch this video is relatively short! Everytime I read your impatient comments I come to the conclusion, that you don't have the slightest idea, what it means to hack an electronic device...it's not like buying beer in the supermarket. Maybe you should start *using* the Internet and *learn* (yes, this has something to do with "reading" and *thinking* (as they call it...)

    And always remember that dev team is doing it out of..em...fun...they are not here to your pleasure...if the result of their work is useful for you: congratulations! If not: congratulations! You have a nice iPod anyway, where you don't have to worry about things like cruel contracts and free carrier choice and the like. And btw: nobody told you to buy an iPod 2G right now (especially no one from dev team)...

    And for christs sake: Show some respect! Or learn hacking by yourself and contribute to the issue with your knowledge and stop your discouraging behaviour!

    So: Hold your fire and have a little faith in the dev team!

    Thanks for reading.

    Greatest respect goes to the dev team, of course! You Guys are just marvelous!!!

    Greetings,
    Kampfschaf

  • kyle · 1 year ago
    Sorry to tell you but that won't work... Telus runs on the CDMA network instead of GSM which the iPhone runs on. Your only choices in Canada are Fido or Rogers for GSM networks.

  • itouch2gfan · 1 year ago
    can someone show me how to hack that way i can jailbreak my itouch 2g. i mean im gratefull for the dev team. they are working on the iphone and alreadygot so close but why is it that every other ipod or iphone has a jailbreak and the 2g isnt. i just wanna make it fair. please just jailbreak the itouch. all im doing here is watching this site day in and day out. please help.
  • Kampfschaf · 1 year ago
    As far as I understand it, the reason why you can't transfer the method to the iPod 2G is, that you have different hardware in it. Therefore a different approach is needed. Different Processors with different Instructions. And you always have to look after suitable failures in the firmware, which are obviously not documented or even intended by Apple...

    Or maybe...dev team hates the iPod 2G... ;)

    Dev team rullez!! i hope the unlock 'll je avalible soon. GL Dev team !!

    p.s. sry for my english
  • drid · 1 year ago
    All great guys!
    Belgium as well has unlocked version (obliged by law) so every sim card gives you the posibility to call even prepaid. The only thing left to do is jailbreaking...
    Belgium price: 525 € for 8G and 620 € for 16 G or take a look at: www.ebay.be
    ;-)
    good luck!
  • kyklop · 1 year ago
    i already bought iPhone without contract in Uk.it cost me 340 £ 8GB version. but it's locked just for O2 carrier.in Czech republic u can buy iPhone without contract form Vodafone and the best thing is that it'll be unlocked to all carriers :) price 16 GB iPhone 3G is (for me) unbelivible 340 £.
  • JAD1 · 1 year ago
    About six hundred fifty or so U.S dollars given what they sell for without contract in a few other countries. 16 Gig version.

  • mk · 1 year ago
    They're getting closer to the unlock, but this post is by no means related to the release of an unlock.
    So far, they are "only" able to run unsigned (meaning not approved by Apple) on the baseband, which is a huge step toward the unlock.

    It hasn't been unlocked yet. This update is from this past sunday.
    If you're referring the old iphone, it took 4-5 months since its release until it was unlocked.

  • David P. · 1 year ago
    I'm posting this question here hoping someone will take pity on me and provide me with a simple answer to a simple question regarding (offically) unlocked iphones and the activation process. The chaos that Apple has created with all this locking/unlocking nonsense just boggles my mind. IF I buy, at a premium price, an officially unlocked phone (Russia, Hong Kong, etc., etc.), that phone must still be "activated" through iTunes with, of course, a legitimate SIM in it - from any provider. Ok. But what information does the ITunes monitor screen ask for in the process? And, MOST IMPORTANTLY, once activated with ANY legitimate SIM, is it "in the Apple database" forever more and never needs to be activated again? For example, IF I take out the SIM used in it during the (first) activation process, and insert another company's (legitimate) SIM, does the phone have to be activated through iTunes yet again? Or is the FIRST TIME activation of an officially unlocked iPhone the end of activation forever for this phone?

    I travel a lot and have three non-US SIMs - Russian, and two German. This is why I ask. I am hoping that, with an unlocked phone, once it's been activated, I can swap out the (legitimate) SIMs whenever I want with no further problem.

    Can anyone help me? Amazing that such simple information is so hard to come by. A "Genius Bar" guy at an Apple store had no idea....

    Thanks!
  • [[Infected]] · 1 year ago
    Once you unlock the phone for any network, then you can legitimately use any carrier as long as the sim is gsm. The phone is activated through the phone not through the apple network. If you unlock the phone without the use of a sim then it is pretty much the same as an iTouch. If you were to restore the phone without using pwn then you would lose access to all other networks and have to use the pwn again to get back to your carrier service. Apple retains no information of the phone being activated unless activated through its network.
  • PoorladRob · 1 year ago
    My understanding is that when your phone is officially unlocked (i.e. not through any software tool that'll be available to download from us) you will still need to activate via iTunes with any new SIM that's inserted. The activation will be painless but still require a PC which, I agree, is unfortunate.

    Devices unlocked using a software unlock such as PwnageTool or QuickPwn in the future will however just allow any SIM to be inserted and used without configuration or activation.
  • vampyren · 1 year ago
    You only activate it once and the questions are all related to your iTunes account if you have one or you need to create on. Its simple stuff like name, address ..
    I live in Sweden and i had to provide a credit card number which is kind of strange but not a problem really :)

    If you ever re-flash then you need to activate again. if you already have a iTunes account then its simple, you just login :)
    Once activated you can use whatever sim card you like (if your phone is unlocked as you say!).
  • drid · 1 year ago
    Hi,
    I live in Belgium, and we only have unlocked Iphones (by law) over here, I paid it 525 €, but no problems with other sim cards, all providers do work, from wherever in the world ( I introduced already: Netherlands, France, Spain, Italy, Germany, US). Problem: the price of the Iphone, but if you let your company pay for it... ;-) Just ask you boss.. or just watch out: www.ebay.be
    I wish you good luck

    I'm not telling you to rush, just showing my support and gratitude. I'd donate to you all if I could, but you guys have to be dicks and not let us. (:P Just kidding. You guys are amazing for not accepting money from people.)

  • JD · 1 year ago
    Not really. The iPod touch 2G is a different animal.

    I personally think jailbreaking it is more important than the iPhone 3G unlock. The next generation of iPhone will almost certainly be based on the iPod touch's new chip. Losing jailbreak would be MUCH worse than losing unlock. Jailbreak is what really unleashes the real power of these devices.

  • instant · 1 year ago
    Verizon is a CDMA carrier and the Iphone is a GSM device. Therefore, the Iphone will not work with Verizon. Just like putting diesel into a gasoline engine. Its just wont work

    iday.ca
  • varsityanchor · 1 year ago
    never... or not on any of the current iphones, iphones run on the gsm network and verison does not making the networks non compatible, it would be like trying to run diesel fuel in your gasoline or electric car. Thus its not going to work.
  • Daijizai · 1 year ago
    This depends on the radio that Apple chose to include. There is the possibility - depending on the radio - of expanding the band to include T-Mobile 3G, and possibly even allowing CDMA/TDMA access. It just depends on how forward thinking that Apple was, and how far the community takes it.

    Don't hold your breath - It would be VERY difficult, and will likely never happen even if the radio chip is capable.

    Do the previous unlocks work with CredoMobile carrier? You know- I'm an immigrant-loving gay-rights-adoring pacifistic tolerant commie beatnik who believes in peace and freedom and happiness and liberty and all those gross and vile and ugly things that AT&T would never stand for. (Oogie-boogie-boooo...)

    Anyway I've been looking forward to an unlock of 3g for that reason and have been trying to find older iphones with no luck (except for some available from scam artists who talk like they won't ship them anyway :( .).

    Even if it won't work on CredoMobile carriers, I still love the iPhone hacks. I refuse though to use AT&T until I can jerk off to the phone sex that they tape and record- or Verizon for that matter.

    Meanwhile here is an awesome wiki which is cool. Congrats on all your endeavors! Cheers to knowledge and experience!
