Update: Unlock iPhone 3.1.2 With BlackSn0w
Just a couple of days after the release of blackra1n RC2 which can jailbreak iPhone 3.1.2, GeoHot is back with yet another major announcement. Geohot has declared on his blog that he will soon be releasing Blacksn0w to unlock iPhone 3.1.2 baseband 05.11.07 on iPhone 3G/3GS running iPhone 3.1.x firmware.
It is a great news for those of you who accidentally upgraded to iPhone 3.1.x firmware from iTunes! He hasn’t given the expected date of release of blacksn0w, but one can expect the release to be coming in another couple of weeks max.
below is a screenshot confirming the progress he has made on 05.11.07 baseband
