I Phone Unlocking:The skills of the mobile phone unlocking experts will clearly be tested to the full once the latest 3G Apple i-phone is released in may. Now that 02 have announced that there will be a PAYG version of the 3G i-phone the incentive to crack the sofware has increased dramatically.Several proprietors of mobile phone unlocking shops have happily put their name to claims in the mobile phone media that there is no doubt whatsoever that once Apple release the softaware regardless of how they protect it, it will be cracked.Maybe
there should be a competition run with the first prize going to the owner of th latest 3G Apple i-phone that has been unlocked and is working on the vodafone mobile phone network.Apple is fighting back and is changing the way the new iPhone 3G will be activated.This move is understandable as the grey market of unlocked iPhones is HUGE.
When ask the question to Apple.
“What if I’m not on one of those networks which are selling the new iPhones?”
“Tough Luck. You are going to have to change networks” say apple.
“Sod off then. I will buy one unlocked of eBay”
Ha. Ha. Ha… replies Apple. “You go and try and get one unlocked. For a start our new 3G iPhone isn’t SIM replaceable. In other words the sim card is manufactured into the phone and is not replaceable by you. This means the phone can only be activated in our stores and even if you did manage to activate it all the settings for your network are hard coded into the device. However you could try to remove the SIM with a hammer. That is, if we have actually put a sim in there !”
I know what you are thinking. There is always a hacker out there which will eventually be able to unlock the iPhone for any network. Well, there probably is but I don’t think Apple or the network will give in so easily. They have a lot more to lose this time if the phones do get jail braked. They have lowered the costs of the handsets because they are relying on gaining the extra revenue from the applications which will be sold separately.
Its only a rumour that the new iPhone 3g hasn’t got a slot for the Sim card because of press released pictures on the net from apple themselves. However it would make commonsense and if the rumour is right then its going to make it very hard to use your own sim in it there for very hard to crack.
User Comments:
Nail:Well I live in the UK, I’m on Vodafone and don’t want to change to O2 because they don’t have a good signal in my area. My only option is to look at other devices such as the HTC Touch Diamond which has just been released. Follow the link above and watch the videos.. It looks good but I still want an iPhone ! !Also have a look at this joke attachment for the new iphone: IPhone forward facing camera.
gary:Apple has not manufactured the sim into the phone. They are providing a tool to pop open the tray.
Chris Brodie:Which Country is this in?In some countries it is illegal to lock the phone to a particular network. So hence they should have the sim card slot.I personaly cant see them having one with and one without.
Alan Vazquez:I think that this is bull s**t. Why does Apple care so much if we unlock them? We wouldn’t be unlocking them if they had chosen T-Mobile (U.S.) in the first place. AT&T sucks balls man. It is soo retarded. Their rates are super high and to top it off their signal sucks. I use T-Mobile because I use their pre-paid plans. Which are more affordable for me. If AT&T provided a $15 pre-paid/pay-as-you-go option, I’d do that. Their current option for that is ridiculous! $50+what you use. Screw that man. UNLOCKING AND JAILBREAKING ALL THE WAY!
Lek:I don’t think Apple has anything to loose since AT&T pays Apple for the lower price, subsidy. In other words, for every unit sold of iPhone 3G, Apple get paid from us and AT&T, period.
iPhone man:it not true , because iPhone 3g they have a SIM card tray…you can see the specs in this website..........

sleepy:You are right, unlocking iPhone 2 will be extremely hard. Apple deliberately left the keys under the mat for the hackers with iPhone1 so they could make iPhone2 bulletproof.Probably, this story got about because Apple’s handset releases to carriers for pre-approval were sealed shut. But unlocking (and therefore SIMswapping) is legally required in several countries. iPhone 2’s shown to media representatives included a SIM tool in the box, but no dock.
James. M.:Seems to me that the only reason Apple is making the iPhone so hard to get, outside the ATT network, is the hype and the fact that everyone wants one!..I say screw Apple…show no interest on the damn thing and see where they are left? easy to say but hard to do..LOL. I know. ATT does suck..their network is poor and the rates are too high. I had to switch to T-mobile because I coulnd’t use my cell phone in my own home…bad reception, or no reception! The way I see it..if i’m paying cold hard cash for something, I better have total control as to what I want to do with it and where I want to do it..it’s my constitutional right!
