Hi,

Couldn't seem to find this topic anywhere.

AS most people know by now, apple can apparently auto update iPhones over the network:

so if that is the case obviously those that have unlocked the iPhone won't be keen for this auto update - cos it could kill the turbosim hack.

Has anyone worked out a hack to prevent auto updates? If not I think this is the next step!

ps also, for those interested Apple US now has refurb iPhones for sale - save $100 USD.

If you arent on their network, they can do sweet f**k all to your phone.

FYI, I don't have that button and i've never connected to any GSM network, only my personal WiFi network at home.

There is no confirmation of over-the-air updates what so ever.
Personally, I don't think Apple will update anything without the user consent.
All updates are opt-in historically.
For iPhone or other Apple products.
The Send To Web Gallery is related to your .Mac account and has nothing to do with a "magic" update without your consent.

Updating the baseband firmware Over The Air would be Darwin award material anyway

Just think before installing a shiny new update coming from iTunes and you should be safe

I think you're right. A friend of mine, in Switzerland, has no GSM access and has the button. But he's using 1.0.1 and has a .Mac account. How could Apple do auto updates on Edge? Some operator accounts don't have unlimited data. So they can't force an update without user consent. That's my opinion.

I don't think there are OTA updates either, but every iPhone user has/should have an unlimited data plan, at least officially speaking.

Now I have a TurboSIM working iPhone.
But when I updated to 1.0.1 and saw the button for the first time I didn't have Edge.
