Geohot has announced that an unlock dubbed BlackSn0w for the iPhone 05.11.07 baseband is coming soon.

This means that all iPhones will be unlockable; including those that have accidentally or intentionally upgraded to the latest firmware.

this is the most complicated injection i have ever done, and it uses a public command
… prepare for blacksn0w, although i gotta still figure out this zamboni Read more…

Geohot has started looking for an iPhone unlock for the 05.11.07 baseband. He estimates it should take approximately one day to find.

Jody Sanders, a person notorious for selling the Dev-Team’s unlock, has offered Geohot $10,000 for releasing a new one. Sanders maintains that he is not selling the unlock but rather selling the support that comes with it.

If Geohot does find an unlock it will be released free to the entire community regardless of whether Sanders actually pays out. “it’s not really the 10k, i wanted to do it anyway”

The search has already begun and we will keep you up to date on Geohot’s progress.

so, i have a stack overwrite exploit…but the charset is *very* limited, sadly too limited i think, back to the drawing board

running low on places to look..at+xemn is exploitable, it’s a heap overflow, but sort of don’t feel like dealing w that

GeoHot tweeted earlier that he is going to be releasing an update to his wonderful 30 sec jailbreak. Blackra1n RC2 is going to contain some small fixes that people are having problems with when using RC1.

Just a warning about blackra1n. Geohot released blackra1n a couple weeks ago, and it was pretty good. Unfortunately, Geohot has included a very buggy version of Icy which, when installed, will pretty much screw up your whole jailbreak causing you to have to restore.

Shame on Geohot for not fixing this. We have told him numerous times there are issues. Users have messaged him, he has been notified, he just doesnt care. Anyways:

–> Do NOT install Icy in Blackra1n <–

The icy bundle is broken and does not have permissions to install software, but that’s not the worst part. Blackra1n install of Icy breaks cydia and rock your phone since it has a very old version of dpkg. This is the core to all these installers.  Since icy is usually installed last, it overwrites dpkg with its own. This causes things like winterboard not working, sbsettings not working. What is really happening is mobile substrate cannot be installed (among other things).
I get about 20 emails a day on various issues that all stem from this one issue. So please spread the word. Do not install Icy in blackra1n.

Note: Icy is not to blame here, but the installation of Icy on blackra1n. Icy bundle in pwnagetool is fine. The problem is Geohot found a very old Icy and did not get it from rip-dev guys.

Warning:

If you are using the iphone dev teams ultrasn0w unlock do not upgrade with an official Apple firmware from itunes. Blackra1n requires you to upgrade your firmware officially and then run the easy jailbreak. You have been warned DO NOT USE THIS JAILBREAK METHOD IF USING DEV TEAM ULTRASN0W UNLOCK

GeoHot’s back to the office and has published two new and interesting Tweets. Both concern blackra1n, and particularly to informed us of all the things that are missing and all devices that is now supported. Let’s see what’s missing:

• Support iPod Touch 3G;
• Hacktivation (for iPhone EDGE iPhone 3G/3GS in Italy or abroad);
• The resolution of a bug on kernelcache;
• Finalization of the final

For the last 2 days… this is what blackra1n supports:

• The iPhone 2G (for use with AT & T in America);
• The iPod Touch 1G;
• The iPhone 3G;
• The iPod Touch 2G;
• Switch to iTunesmobiledevice
• Blackra1n Application for iPhone (able to download Cydia)
• Stability

Please get on the 3GS That’s what I’m looking for.

Note: The list is not the iPhone but in many 3GS Tweet GeoHot said bladra1n the support that the native firmware 3.1 is vulnerable and that his hack works on 3.1.2 so it is fairly secure and under understood.

Update 1: The Chronic DevTeam asked if the GeoHot Jailbreak iPod Touch 3G will be of tethered or untethered and he said that for now this is the second method because his little problem with a library is not yet resolved.

Update 2: As I told you, GeoHot specify the blackra1n also supports the iPhone 3GS:

Update 3: GeoHot Has Dropped Ipod Touch 3rd Gen Support as it is not vulnerable

Again GeoHot gives us good news. His program Blackra1n works perfectly well on the 3.1.2 firmware that Apple has just released!

The posting of the usb_control_msg(0×21, 2) Exploit by Chronic Dev to the iPhoneWiki caused a little bit of upset today with GeoHot threatening to stop work on the exploit.

“OMG CHRONIC, WHY DID YOU POST THE EXPLOIT? SHIT LIKE THAT MAKES ME NOT WANT TO WORK ANYMORE”

“i discovered that exploit first, and that was really a low blow to try and take credit. have fun with greenpois0n, i am not releasing”

Chronic Dev has since posted the full story on his blog to explain things.

We wanted to make this perfect and bug-free, so it was taking awhile. Soon, people started commenting and emailing me complaints about it taking so long. I can handle this. Then, I start getting ppl threatening to file a dispute with PayPal to get a refund. Read more…
