IPHONE unlocked!!!

FULL HARDWARE UNLOCK OF IPHONE DONE
Video
Yes thats right, we have an unlocked iPhone. The hardware is
only used to unlock the iPhone, and can be removed after it's
unlocked. Thanks to gray, iProof, geohot, dinopio, lazyc0der,
and an anonymous contributor for making this possible. Thanks
also to everyone who donated and stuck with us in
#iphone.unlock. Our group has agreed to release the method in
one week. The current method involves taking apart your
phone and doing some complicated soldering, with a high
probablity of a bricked phone. Although after the phone is
unlocked all the hardware can be removed. We hope to find a
software unlock very soon. So in one week exactly from this
blog post(thats less than the time it takes to ship a turbosim)
we will release simple step by step instructions for unlocking,
probably not even involving hardware. Sorry about the wait,
but I assure you it will be worth it.







What you need


--First, an iPhone. Of the sshed and jailbroken variety. Also, kill
commcenter by moving the LaunchDaemon plist out of the
directory.
--Some trusty case opener tools(read: guitar picks) Read one of
the many tutorials available online for taking apart your phone.
--A soldering iron. This should've cost you more than $10.
--Fine pitch wire. I used magnet wire salvaged from a little
motor.
--An unlock switch. The bigger and more badass, the better. Or
if you are cheap, wire cutters :-)
--A red bull. This requires concentration, something I don't have
without Red Bull
