iPhone DIY HACK - more SIM unlocking Hacks…

Posted in Consumer, Cool, DoItYourself!, Educational, Gadgets, Hack by max on the October 4th, 2007 at 3:55 am

Here’s another way to unlock your iPhone SIM:

    • Download the iUnlock_Reloaded.zip from here, here or here. Save it to a directory.
    • cd to where you just saved the download and unzip it.
    • in another wiindow, ssh into your iPhone and run: mkdir /unlock
    • back on your Mac, scp the three files to your iPhone: scp -p iUnlock_reloaded *bin root@youriphoneip:/unlock
    • on your iPhone, run: cd /unlock
    • on your iPhone, run: ./iUnlock_reloaded
    • If it worked, and says your iPhone is unlocked, you’re done. If not, read on.

      If it says that the flash went ok, but the unlock failed, do this:

    • put a copy of the 1.0.2 firmware in a directory on your Mac. If you need to download it, get it from here.
    • rename the extension on the firmware from ipsw to zip
    • unzip it
    • run: dd if=009-7698-4.dmg of=ramdisk.dmg bs=512 skip=4 conv=sync
    • use finder to navigate to the directory where ramdisk.dmg is and double-click it to mount it.
    • copy the following files to the directory you unziped iUnlock_Reloaded.zip in:
      • /Volumes/ramdisk/usr/local/bin/bbupdater
      • /Volumes/ramdisk/usr/local/standalone/firmware/ICE03.14.08_G.eep
      • /Volumes/ramdisk/usr/local/standalone/firmware/ICE03.14.08_G.fls
    • copy those three files to your iPhone: scp -p bbupdater ICE* root@youriphoneip:/unlock
    • on your iPhone, run: cd /unlock
    • on your iPhone, run: launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist
    • on your iPhone, run: ./bbupdater -f *.fls -e *.eep
    • on your iPhone, run: launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist
    • on your iPhone, run: ./iUnlock_reloadedIt should successfully flash and unlock this time.
