This is how he did it:
As you may or may not know, Turbo SIM’s are used to fake the IMSI and ICCID to look like AT&T. This effectively tricks the iPhone into believing a T-Mobile SIM is an AT&T SIM. At the moment this is the ONLY way to use another network besides AT&T on iPhones that come with firmware version 1.1.2 out of the box. The idea is to reprogram one of those $10 dual SIM cards from eBay to work like a Turbo SIM. As shown in (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jkwn_Bb3Bho). In the video you can see what looks like a dual SIM card holder performing like a Turbo SIM. The Magic SIM software communicates with com/serial card writers, but using a usb programmer with a serial to usb cable seems to work for others. So programming Magic SIM’s dual SIM card with an AT&T IMSI and ICCID should produce the same results as Turbo SIM / Sonic SIM. We have yet to attempt this and would like to see if it actually works.
Items Needed:
Magic SIM’s Dual SIM Card (Must be a Magic SIM, others will not work) -
MagicSIM,
eBay
Serial SIM Card Reader & Writer
Magic SIM’s SIM Editing Software -
Download
Put your AT&T SIM into your SIM writer, and open SIM Scanner and scan your AT&T SIM card. Write down the ICCID as we will need this later. Next open Woron Scan and get your IMSI. Now put in your Magic SIM Dual SIM Card and open SIM Data. Put in your AT&T IMSI and ICCID into it and transfer it back to your Dual SIM. Using the paper guide from your Dual SIM, cut your provider’s SIM card accordingly. You should now be able to put your provider’s SIM card into the Dual SIM and then into your iPhone . If this works for anyone or you know of ways to improve these steps, post a reply in the comments of this post.
