Isn't this what the thousands of keygens for PC apps do? Why is it so much harder to do it for the iPhone? Is it because you would normally decompile the software that does the validation, and this is run on apple servers and so is inaccessible? Sorry, just thinking out loud...

current 3G unlock status??

just citing:

Q: You can take 1.45.00 (or at least 1.43.00), patch it somewhere, flash this file and it's run? Yes or no?
A: No(t yet as easy as that, but be sure we're on it) :p Zf

So, that's very good news :) -caique2001-

To speak more technical... The X-Gold 608 has TPM features. So normally one would expect it only to run signed code. This in turn means, it doesn't matter if the code is interchangeable, because only original Apple code can be run. The crucial hack needed is the hack to run unsigned code, say patched code (as Apple's private key to sign is not known of course).

TPM doesn't come into play here. We're running unsigned code, and convincing s-gold3 bootrom we deserve a downgrade. It happily complies.

Wow! Even more good news :-) Where do we have to send the beer to :-) ?? If it should not go to much into detail, could you shortly explain what issue you are currently working on? The fact you have the possibility to run patched unsigned code, does it imply you are currently working on a patch that actually does the unlock? And does TPM come into play here or are there other issues to be solved? caique2001

I would assume that with unsigned code, you could patch the 3G equivalant of Simple Unlock. IIRC, geohot has already found the bits. we just need a way to patch them. About bypassing TPM...it would be interesting to see how this is done. Perhaps a malformed sig like with pwnage 2.0 and DFU mode? guess we will just have to wait and see :P ChronicDev

opensource baseband?

Is to make one? With 3G support? or modify the 4.6 baseband to have have 3g support?

4.6 is on different platform, you cannot modify that for 3G.

get unlocked bootloader ??

as in countrys like belgium, the 3g is sold without any carrier lock. (belgium law)

wouldnt it be possible to get the bootloader from such an iphone and transfer it to any other device ??
