hi, according to my friend who works for a phone maker, all mobile phones are tested to work with emergency numbers 911/112

EVEN if the phone is under "key lock", EVEN if the phone is WITHOUT sim card inserted

thus it doesn't mean anything except that the GSM bandwidth in your country is supported by iPhone

emergency: "please state the nature of your emergency"
me: "oops, sorry mate wrong number"
emergency: "no worries mate, bye"

so i wonder, am i the first person in australia to make a call on the iphone and speak to someone using our networks without roaming? probably not, but i can safely say that part works.


drmapple:

yes, i found out the iccid appears after a while, but it does not appear the instant after activation. it just 'happens' after a while.


anyway, back to the original topic, has anyone had any ideas about the activation process providing network details etc? has anyone had any success decrypting the data, or do they understand exactly what's being swapped and where? has anyone successfully mounted the iphone and viewed it's files?

cheers.

wombat,
My take the last dev update post combined with your theorysounds like you may be right.

The att (410) and iphone code has to be the same as the start of the imsi.

i assume that in the encryted data flow from itunes could easily be sending the codes into the firmware of the chip. And they do state it is a different type of locking in the post

i never said or implied that it did, i was simply responding to smman. my answer to him was off topic.
