neil0 if your phone from the USA came with FW 1.1.2 it has the new bootloader. There is no software unlock avial at this moment.

Your only option is TurboSIM or StealthSIM. StealthSIM is your simpler option as it comes pre programed.

I just hope your running of anySIM has not messed up the baseband ?

Your other option is use it as an iPod & WiFi access.

An explanation of FW 1.1.2 can be found here:

stevekicks once you have run iWorld you can remove as it has done it's job & is no longer needed.

There is an app called Customize, which I think needs Summerboard installed to work, which allows you to rearrange the order of the icons and to hide some if you wish. You should be able to find it in installer. It usually crashes the first couple of times you try to open it and then comes good and does the job.

Default hey

umm this apprently work to unlock it so i can use my sim card should i try it ?


1. Tap the new SSH icon on your home screen and turn on SSH
2. Open Installer.app and go to the Sources category and install Community Sources
3. Go to the System category and install the BSD Subsystem, reboot your iPhone
4. SFTP into your iPhone using the same steps as in steps 4.4 and 4.5 on the previous page, browse to /System/Library/Frameworks/AppSupport.framework/ and download the file called AppSupport to your desktop computer
5. For this step, you will need a hex editor. Mac users grab HexEdit, Windows users download UltraEdit (the trial version is fine). Open the AppSupport from the last step in either editor, and use the application’s go to function (Find -> Go To Address in HexEdit, Search -> Goto Line/Page/Bookmark in UltraEdit) to go to address 0xA0AC.
6. At the end of that line, you will see the letters fr and the numbers 33 - this is the ISO country code and ITU telephone code for France, which we will be replacing with whatever country you want to use the iPhone in. Head here or in foder to get your ISO and ITU codes for your country (the last two letters and two or three numbers on each line) and simply overwrite them in your hex editor. For example, I am in Australia, so I would overwrite fr with au and 33 with 61. Similarly, if you were in Hong Kong, you would overwrite fr with hk and 33 with 852. Save the file when you are done
7. Place the file back on to your iPhone, overwriting the previous version. The reverse of step 4 on this page
8. Now we need to create a ‘plist’ file of your carrier’s settings and show your phone where it is. Download this sample plist file or in foder and open it in any text editor. Look for the line that says <key>CarrierName</key>, and change the line below that where it says Carrier to the name of your carrier (Vodafone in my case). Optionally, you can also find the line that says <key>apn</key>, and enter your carrier’s internet access point, username, and password below it in a similar manner (you can find a list of access points here or go to http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html). Save the file as CarrierName_Country.plist, replacing CarrierName and Country with your carrier name and country
9. Upload the file to the directory /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreTelephony.framework/Support/ on your iPhone as in step 4 on this page
10. You now need to find out your carrier’s MCC and MNC numbers (don’t worry about what they mean). You should be able to find them on this Wikipedia page or go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_...#International. For example, I use Vodafone in Australia, so my MCC is 505 and my MNC is 03.
11. SSH to your iPhone by using PuTTY here or in folder on a Windows PC or the Terminal on a Mac. In PuTTY, use your iPhone’s IP address as the server name, and the username and password exactly as you did for access the device with SFTP. Mac users, open the Terminal and type ssh root@ipaddress, so if you iPhone’s IP address is 10.1.1.5, you would type ssh root@10.1.1.5 and press enter, then type your password.
12. Once you have SSH access to your iPhone, type these two lines, pressing enter after each
a. cd /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreTelephony.framework/Support/
b. ln -s Carrier_Country.plist MCCMNC (replacing Carrier_Country.plist with the filename you made in step 8, and MCC and MNC with the numbers you found in step 10 without a space in between)
Close your SSH window
13. Take the SIM card out of your phone if it is inserted, and restart the phone, then put your SIM back in. If it still doesn’t get service or the phone and SMS applications still crash, you may have to grab another SIM, put it in, then switch back to your regular one. If it still doesn’t work, something has gone wrong, and I would suggest restoring your iPhone with iTunes, redoing the jailbreak instructions, and trying the steps on this page again.

neil0 what you talking about is what iWorld does. But this is not a SIM unlock, just changing carrier settings.

I got my iPod touch today, and I've successfully jailbroken it, but I'm having trouble trying to get sftp access. I've tried to follow a few tutorials, but none seem to work.

I've managed to ssh into it, but transmit tells me the authentication failed, even though the username and password are correct (root/alpine).

Any ideas?

Edit: I don't really need to do this anymore, but it would be nice to know how to do it. I used 'Squid' to change the permissions of the apps.

sevin21 you have not installed OktoPrep properly so you can't run jailbreak 1.1.2

you need to retrace your steps & install OktoPrep & get the confirm its ok to upgrade to FW 1.1.2 then you will be able to run the windows.bat

For your sim unlock you will have to purchase a StelthSIM or TurboSIM.

Hi guys.

I've Googled and searched MacTalk, but can't find a definitive answer.

I have an OTB 1.1.1 which I unlocked weeks ago and have been using successfully, but I'm finally home now and wanting to sync it with my Mac (contacts, photos, songs).

Will iTunes 7.5 really re-lock my iPhone (and if so, where can I get 7.4 from?)

Thanks!

No it won't.

You can even go to 1.1.2 (with the right method) from your 1.1.1.

Anyone know how to help me with this? I need it for a few other things now.

Try another FTP app? CyberDuck? Fugu?

Are you sure you're using SFTP? Port?

Sure the username/password is right?

I've tried Transmit and FileZilla (PC app). Transmit tells me "Connection refused", while FileZilla says "Error: Fatal: unable to initialise SFTP on server: could not connect"

I've been using port 22 which Transmit tells me is the port for SFTP.

I'm pretty sure I've got the right password and username combo.

I used these instructions to install it.

I don't really have a clue about the PC side of things but I suspect you're not really running the server on the iPhone?

Are sure you SSH is running and/or installed?

Is it on your network? Do you know the right IP?
