Unlock an iPhone for free

September 14th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Ed Felten explains how free iPhone unlocking software came to be released. The creators of iPhoneSimFree reverse engineered the iPhone’s configuration to figure out how to unlock the phone, and started selling the software. Someone then purchased iPhoneSimFree, reverse engineered that, and released the information on how to unlock an iPhone to the public, and now free software is available that does the job of iPhoneSimFree.

Of course, if you unlock an iPhone and move it to another network, you won’t be able to take advantage of the killer voice mail integration that the iPhone has, so it’s probably worth it to stick with AT&T anyway.
