iPhone relocked

We knew this would happen weeks ago. Most of us knew that the iPhone was going to be locked down for third party applications as well as SIM unlocks. It isn’t possible (currently) to jailbreak an iPod touch and the same can now be said of any iPhone running 1.1.1. iTunes no longer communicates with the iPhone, instead iTunes listens for commands sent from the iPhone. This means listening for keys is no longer possible, which means decrypting ramdisks is also no longer possible. The whole thing is a tremendous pain in the ass but absolutely nobody can say this wasn’t expected. Just deal with it and accept it; we all knew what we were getting ourselves in for.

Incidentally, if you do need to restore your iPhone, download this:

http://content.info.apple.com/iPhone/061-3823.20070821.vormd/iPhone1,1_1.0.2_1C28_Restore.ipsw

And alt-click the restore button in iTunes. You’ll be able to choose the firmware you wish to restore using.

    This happens when your iPhone goes into lockdown - you can confirm this by checking to see if the IMEI has changed to 004999010640000 (dial *#06#).

    You could try reflashing the iPhone's baseband using bbupdater by running the following (after attempting to 1.02 of course):

    launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist
    bbupdater -f ICE03.14.08_G.fls
    bbupdater -e ICE03.14.08_G.eep
    launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.CommCenter.plist

    You can find the firmware files all over the internet. It may fail the first try, reflashing again using the same commands after it fails should work.

    I can't really offer you much more help other than to keep an eye on the following:
