Check Out This Craigslist Ad About Unlocking - iPhone 3G

- Unlock iPhone (any version include the current 1.1.2 firmware) to use on Tmobile or any GSM network.
- If you want to use your iPhone on AT&T but don't want to sign 2 year contract, I can help.
- If your iPhone has problem caused by incorrect upgrading, or get "bricked", I can fix it.

Now this person is indicating that he can unlock 1.1.2 firmware. Can this actually be done? Is there something that i'm missing?

no. it prolly means that he can unlock upgraded phones.

otb 1.1.2 software iPhone unlock is, at the moment, impossible.

however, there is the turboSIM and stealthSIM methods which are hardware options.
and screw those kinds of ppl.

the iPhone shit should be I'll help you kind of thing not 'pay me'

I agree with you on that. When I read that Ad I was thinking "People should be careful responding to that". Don't wanna get screwed.

and gets stopped by the bootloader 4.06 when he tries to 1. downgrade the baseband to 04.01.13_g (won't work) and 2. tries to unlock the baseband (will destroy the firmware)

OTB 1.1.2 CANNOT BE SW UNLOCKED. period.

until the devteam finishes up with the extraction of the secpack from 1.1.3, IT CANNOT BE DONE WOTH SOFTWARE.

Ok Cool. So it's safe to say that a OTB 1.1.2 can be jailbreaked but not unlocked.

Griffinaz · 01-07-2008, 06:13 PM

That is correct. 1.1.2 OTB cannot be unlocked through software means.
