Exploit

Relies on an unsigned code exploit in the 01.45.00 - 02.11.07 basebands.

The actual unlock works by a daemon patching the baseband's RAM on-the-fly, overriding the carrier lock code. It is not permanent because of the signature checks - the bootloader has to pass the sigchecks and the baseband has to pass them too, so any change to the baseband/bootloader cannot be made.

(Currently there's no any further information)
