Apple seeds updated OS X 10 7 3 build 11D24 to developers Update back up



Update: Apple once pulled the 10.7.3 update, but is now back up.

Apple has begun seeding an updated OS X 10.7.3 (build 11D24) to developers this afternoon. The update comes after Apple’s first release of 10.7.3 two weeks ago, and bringing bug fixes into the mix. Apple has also added Spotlight and Safari to the list of areas they would like developers to focus on. In the initial release, Apple originally asked developers’ attention in iCloud Document Storage, Address Book, iCal, and Mail.
It’s not clear when a public release of 10.7.3 will hit Software Update, but in the mean time go ahead and download the update from the Dev Center.

Gevey SIM Unlock iPhone 4 on 2 10 04 3 10 01 4 10 01 is illegal Warning

If you intend to buy Gevey SIM to unlock you iPhone 4, I think you should wait. MuscleNerd of iPhone dev-team has announced some bad news about Gevey SIM which unlock iPhone 4 basebands 2.10.04 / 3.10.01 / 4.10.01, MuscleNerd said that Gevey SIM is illegal in USA and probably other countires as it dials 112 (emergency) then hang up.

Likely the carriers will block the SIMs that are causing the repeated emergency call hang ups, and if you change the blocked SIM many times, you yourself will get banned by carrier.
That "dial 112 then hang up" in gevey http://is.gd/FGNeJi is illegal in USA, and probably other countries. Buyer beware.
So the question is can the hackers improve Gevey SIM to work legally? Unfortunately, MucleNerd confirmed that there is no way to make Gevey SIM method legal. So I highly recommend who is looking for unlock to wait for ultrasn0w from the dev-team.

If you’ve been eagerly waiting for iPhone Dev Team to release a software solution to unlock your iPhone then may have also heard about a SIM card hack called Gevey SIM.
Gevey SIM Interproser doesnt need users to jailbreak their iPhone but works by forcing the activation of the baseband using the emergency dialer. It can unlock iPhone 4 basebands 04.10.01 (bundled with iOS 4.3, iOS 4.3.1), 03.10.01 (bundled with iOS 4.2.1), 02.10.04 (bundled with iOS 4.1).

This is how it works:
SIM card holds many different types of information, but the part most involved with carrier lock is the IMSI number, which is a unique code that corresponds to your account in the mobile carrier’s database.

A sample IMSI might look like this
310 150 987654321

The first two segments are known as Mobile Country Code (MCC) and Mobile Network Code (MNC) respectively, and in the example above the IMSI indicate the SIM is from USA (310) AT&T (150).
When the iPhone baseband is loaded into memory, it checks the MCC and MNC against its own network lock state stored in the seczone. If the combination is allowed, the cell radio is activated and vice versa.

The earliest iPhone baseband revisions only check IMSI twice following a restart, therefore it is very easy to send spoof information in order to bypass the check. Nevertheless, the baseband was soon updated to validate SIM more aggressively and the method soon became obsolete. [..]
[..] Apparently somebody figured out that while the i4 baseband has been patched to prevent test IMSI from working, it is still possible to force activate the baseband using the emergency dialer.

It works if
A.your network handles 112 calls properly according to the GSM standard;
B.they are lax on TMSI management and does not actively validate your IMSI again for incoming calls.

Unlike its ancestors, the i4 SIM interposer is not a drop-in-and-forget device. The exact precedure must be performed should the device restart, lose reception for an extended period of time or move to another PLMN. In all these situations the TMSI expires and has to be obtained again. Theoretically it is possible for a daemon to automate the process similar to ZeroG, but that only makes thing more convoluted.
You can checkout the video of an iPhone 4 unlocked using the Gevey SIM hack below:
Now for some bad news. Since the hack works using the emergency dialer (by dialing 112), it is illegal in the US and probably in other countries.
MuscleNerd, member of the iPhone Dev Team has also warned users from using the Gevey SIM card hack:
That "dial 112 then hang up" in gevey http://is.gd/FGNeJi is illegal in USA, and probably other countries. Buyer beware.
Since the Gevey SIM Interproser fakes your handset’s identity, you also run the risk of your carrier shutting down your account for breach of contract:
SIM interposer should not harm your phone hardware, however your network could request IMEI and identify your device during the emergency call, leading to your handset getting banned. Your identity cannot be faked and it is possible that they will shut down your account. There is a reason why SIM cards remain legally the property of the service provider: you are not supposed to tamper with them without breaching contract.

iOS 5 Untethered Jailbreak Over 10 Million Crash Reports Received From Supporters Of Jailbreak

Promising news for iOS 5 / 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak. Joshua Hill who is also known as p0sixninja and is the front man for the Chronic Dev Team has reported a landmark of crash reports that have been received by his team. The Chronic Dev Team recently launched a new app that tends to collect the iOS crash reports in iTunes and then sends them to their private servers in order for them to find exploits in the future iOS 5 untethered jailbreak.



In about a week, the team has collected over 10 million crash reports from jailbreak supporters from around the world. The Chronic Dev Team is working to parse the cash reports data that they have received to create a stable and untethered jailbreak for Apple’s iOS 5.

In one of his most recent tweets, Joshua Hill has announced that 10,071,868 crash reports have been uploaded to the servers the Chronic Dev Team are using, since the tool for collecting the data was releases last Sunday.

Google’s MapReduce software is being used by the team to compute the large amount of crash report data that is being sent in by jail breakers from around the world. This software, according to Joshua Hill allows his team to run tests in seconds rather than days, if done by normal methods.

The iOS 5, the iPhone 4S and iPad2 still don’t have an ETA on an official untethered jailbreak. But the submitted number of crash reports is a kind of a testament that tells about how committed the jailbreak community is in making Chronic Dev Crash jailbreak into a reality. Important iOS 5 exploits have already been found but according to Joshua they are under a strong guard until the right time presents itself to show these exploits
