Good Afternoon,
I Have An Iphone 1.1.2 Ver Bootloader Purchased Around Christmas.. Want To Unlock It And Use It .. Am Not Interested In Unlocking Via Turbosim - Similar Options... The Wait Is Longer Than Expected... For The Unlock To Release ..can Some One Help. Thanks
As you already know, there is no software unlock for your 1.1.2 yet. If you are not keen to use *SIM methods, then u just have to wait. You can jailbreak and use it as an ipod for the time being.Quote:

Of course, i will have it for you in a couple of minutesQuote:

Apparently once 1.1.3 comes out, a software unlock will shortly follow
or at least thats what was being said anyway
not quite panned out that way though.
you got 3 choices, hardware unlock, *sim or put it on ebay
there will be no SW unlock.
If there was going to be one, it would have appeared by now

No such unlock has been give to the "ignorant masses" just yet because there is another way, possibly better, and the guys are exploring that. However, as long as you have BL 3.x, don't worry, unlocking ANY baseband should be relatively easy.
With BL version 4.x, you are SCREWED! That bootloader does not have known vulnerabilities (at the moment anyway) and does not allow you to erase or modify the baseband firmware. Wether you have the secpack of 1.1.3 or not is irrelevant. What needs to be done is to downgrade the 4.x BL into a 3.x BL, and it can only be done by hardware hacking today.
So... That is what they meant when they were saying that secpack was required to unlock the 4.03 baseband. It is entirely true, as long as you have version 3.x of the bootloader.
To summarize, if you have a 3.x bootloader in the phone, anything is possible. If you have a 4.x bootloader, nothing can be done without hardware hacking.
It is quite simple, really... Its just that some money-making people around this forum just don't want to HEAR that answer... ;) Hardware hacking the phones is difficult and expensive time-wise. Not a good business anymore... he...
