The iPhone has finally become unlocked, sort of. The good people over at Hacktheiphone have figured out how to use Cingular SIM cards, regardless of model or service plan, with the iPhone. The whole thing seems very risky.
Using hacking skills on the iPhone’s IMEI, the feature that makes sure another companies service isn’t being used, could cause your iPhone service to have a serious meltdown. Though, if you do the hack correctly, you should be able to use the cheaper Cingular service. It’s also just a good exercise if you’re interested in GSM hacking. — Andrew Dobrow
I got the iphone 2 weeks ago and had my it manager try unlocking it. He eventually came back with the activation unlocked. I was still unable to use an international sim, this was until i put 2 of my managers on it and 1 of my accountants. Dont ask what an accountant has to do with hacking and IT but they did the job. I can now make calls using any sim card with no problems and have fallen in love with this phone. Does this mean we are the first to accomplish this? anyways just thought i’d ask. I ended up purchasing each of them an iphone which they have really enjoyed as we are the first, that we know of at least to be using this phone outside the US. we are definately the first in Africa at least. Well good luck to all.
hi please tell the procces of unlocking the iphone for international carriers i have unlocked to be used with cingular sims but im in colombia so its still no use here if you can i would be very greatfull
Let me know too my e-mail is [email protected]
Only someone rude or completely full of s#it would make a comment like james and then not offer further explanation to the rest of the world desperate for such a hack. my money is on the latter…
Hi,
im from Colombia SA and just bought the Iphone, james or someone please helpme to unlock the SIM, thank you
hola andres la verdad ya no hay forma de desbloquearlo para una empresa colombiana la unica forma seria clonando la simcard que viene con el iphone y que alguien en comcel por ejemplo la manipule pero eso es casi imposible parece que nos va a tocar esperar
Hey,
I’m from Trinidad, and I would like to know how you got the international SIM cards to work. I have an 8GB iPhone. I have the applications unlocked but no local SIM can work. Please e-mail me: [email protected]. Thanks

se puede desbloquear el iphone, pero la sim card de comcel no sirve. yo desbloque� el tel�fono, pero le sirve todo menos el servicio celular. el tel�fono me sirve para wireless, y sincronizar contactos, m�sica, etc.
You can unlock your iphone faster and easier and cheaper with lots of great resources on the internet .
.IT’S Nice awesome ..My Friend Using the same Mobile & me also.My get Unlocked From the Vodafone Australia.I was Used the site http://www.mobileunlocksolutions.com/..For the Unlocking Process..
The other option that can be easier is to use Turbo Sims. You can then use them on your next phone that needs unlocking. Might be worth looking at http://www.mobilecodez.com order to find the best unlocking solution.
