iPhone 3G Unlock

iPhone 3G Unlock - iPhone Dev-Team has released new information on the free carrier unlock software package known as ultrasn0w. Now iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS devices running baseband versions 04.26.08, 05.11.07, 05.12.01, 05.13.04, and 06.15.00 are unlockable after jailbreaking. iPhone Dev-Team includes detailed ultrasn0w information in their recent Ultra-recycle blog post.

Running iOS 4.2.1 on your iPhone 3G/3GS? Updating your iPhone baseband to 06.15.00 using iPad 3.2.2 firmware actually makes the device unlockable for use on carriers other than AT&T Mobility. Dev-Team has developed a PwnageTool 4.1.3 Unlock Edition that will update the 3G/3GS baseband, and the group is working on a new version of redsn0w that will add this functionality for Windows users.

iPhone 3G and 3GS models running basebands higher than 05.13.04 or lower than 06.15.00 are not unlockable with ultrasn0w at this time. Dev-Team made news this week by releasing an iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak immediately after Apple launched the new firmware. The first step in unlocking is to jailbreak, so here are instructions on how to jailbreak your iPhone running iOS 4.2.1.

After jailbreaking and insuring you have a compatible baseband version, Cydia should already have the repository repo666.ultrasn0w.com pre-installed. From here, you can download and install ultrasn0w. T-Mobile is currently the only iPhone-compatible carrier in the US besides AT&T. Most analysts believe an end to the exclusive contract between Apple and AT&T is imminent and could result in unlocked iPhones being sold in the US as they are in other countries.

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone - Police say a man on a Southwest Airlines flight from Las Vegas punched a teenager who refused to turn off his iPhone as the plane approached the Boise airport. Officers arrested 68-year-old Russell E. Miller, of Boise, on suspicion of misdemeanor battery Tuesday. He has been released from jail on bond. Witnesses told police the 15-year-old was playing games and listening to music on his cell phone when flight attendants instructed passengers to turn off their electronic devices because the plane was landing. Witnesses told police that when the teen didn't respond, Miller got angry and punched the boy in the arm. Miller says he "tapped" the teen on the shoulder after he refused to turn off the phone. He told the Idaho Statesman that he may have "overreacted," but that he did not punch the teen. Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone
