Revision as of 06:39, 8 September 2008
This is the original iPhone. It was released on June 29, 2007 with a price tag of $499 for the 4GB and $599 for the 8GB. A $200 price drop followed the release of the phone. Later, the 4GB model was discontinued, with the 8GB model filling it's place and a new 16GB model filling the high end.

Internals
See: M68ap (Internals)[1]
Baseband
The iPhone uses the S-Gold 2 baseband chip
Application Processor
It makes use of the S5L8900 application processor. At the time, the iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPod Touch all use this same processor.
Bluetooth
Chip
Uses the CSR BlueCore4 Chip (BC41B41) (see high resolution picture above)
Software
Stack
No detailed information so far.
Some preliminary hacking
Everything experimented here was performed on a 16GB original iPhone running the 2.0 firmware.
The iPhone has a Bluetooth daemon called BTServer that serves the little the iPhone currently does. It is launched by the /sbin/launchd process. On killing the BTServer process, launchd restart it almost instantly. It is possible to catch BTServer itself launches the BlueTool utility by rapidly displaying processes right after killing BTServer. If bluetooth was set inactive in the control panel, BTServer call /usr/sbin/BlueTool -f /etc/bluetool/iPhone1,1.deepsleep.script. On the other hand, If bluetooth was set active in the control panel, BTServer calls the /etc/bluetool/iPhone1,1.init.script.
The '/etc/bluetooth/pcm-example.script' does not seem to be relevant to the iPhone as it uses COM1. To verify that the other 2 scripts were really used.
In order to fool around with bluetooth it seems necessary to prevent the BTServer from being loaded. The System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.BTServer.plist file can be edited. There is a 'disabled' key set to false by default. Setting it true will prevent BTServer from being started. With that small change I kind of experienced that GUI was really irresponsive. With BTServer completely deactivated, the control panel bluetooth item should say 'inactive' and the toggle switch set inactive.
Output from iPhone built-in tools:
bluetool-> hci info
Radio Manufacturer: CSR Bluetooth HCI Specification: Version 2.0
Bluetooth Address: 00:02:5b:00:a5:a5
bluetool-> csr -V
CSR BlueCore Version 0x0003, Revision 0x0030, Build: A06
From CSR' BlueCore BCCMD Commands Document (bcore-sp-005Pe)
ChipVer = 0x03, BlueCore3-Multimedia, BlueCore3-ROM, BlueCore3-FLASH, BlueCore4-External, BlueCore4-ROM
ChipRev = 0x30, BlueCore4-ROM
ChipAnaVer = A06 (???)
