Here is the relief for the iPhone and iPod touch owners (just like me) who accidentally updated the iPhone OS 3.1.2 with baseband 05.11.07 and want to unlock the iPhone.
GeoHot, one among the very few iPhone hackers who can jailbreak and unlock iPhone, is readying for the release of blacksn0w on 11/04/2009. Blacksn0w will be the first and only one unlock solution for the Apple’s latest iPhone OS version 3.1.2 with baseband 05.11.07. Though the Dev-Team continues to work on a carrier unlock for the latest basebands, as per them, “the timeframe for such an unlock is unknowable.”
George Hotz, the guy who will be hero for the iPhone and iPod touch owners who wants jailbreaking and unlocking their device, posted in his blog that “all iPhone unlocks and jailbreaks are free. Only two people make unlocks, me and the dev team. Every iPhone unlock site you see out there is selling our stuff, repackaged in some form or another. Same goes for jailbreaks, although ih8sn0w and chronicdev are legit. Notice what all the legit ones have in common? They are free.“
So lets not encourage, by buying the jailbreak and unlock products, those sites that sell the goodies of the people who really work very hard.
You all will have to wait for four more days, just like me as I sadly lost my jailbreak and unlock on my iPhone 3GS when updated with latest OS and baseband yesterday.
