iPhone 3G Unlocked!
The iPhone 3G has been unlocked by the iPhone Dev team. It is the first unlock of the iPhone 3G so now you can use your T-Mobile Sim Card. I’m pretty sure that you can’t use the 3G connections and have to use Edge because AT&T and T-Mobile have different ways of connecting to 3G. The hack is officially called yellowsn0w I don’t know why they called it YellowSn0w but they did. So for those of you who have T-Mobile and have been waiting to get the iPhone 3G here is your chance to get it. The hack will be released on New Years Eve. You can still Jailbreak right now if you have AT&T. You have to have the older baseband so if you updated to 2.2 this will not work. Your iPhone also has to be unlocked. There have been some bugs too some people reporting they can’t go into DFU mode. To possibly fix this just follow this guide if you don’t know what it means then don’t do it!
Possible fixes are (try at your own risk!) –
1. Replace the following plugin kexts from within IOUSBFamily.kext with the ones from 10.5.5 and then rebuild kextcache (if you don’t understand this, then you shouldn’t attempt it!)
/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleUSBHub.kext
/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBCompositeDriver.kext
2. Use a USB hub in-between the DFU device and the Mac and insert/reinsert the iPhone’s USB cable.
3. Use a PwnageTool created. ipsw on Windows
*I’m not responsible if you brick your iPhone, so try at you own risk.
