I know a lot of people are looking forward to or have been asking about this. Looks like a new unlock will be available around years end after 4.2 is released. Maybe some of you won't have to wait too long at all!

Well looks like geohot will release limesn0w to unlock devices on firmware 4.1 and 4.2 with baseband 02.10.4 and 05.15.01

Should be out soon for everyone who needs an unlock and accidentally updated their baseband or those who got a phone with the updated baseband stock.

See what the haters have to say now lol
 
I don't think either of those sites is particularly reliable. Until we see something from a more reliable source I'd be pretty skeptical.

To clarify: sheriff_hashim is a reliable source for information about his progress, but nothing else in that article can be counted on. He's crashed the baseband, but that's a long way from a releasable unlock tool.
 
Well the first link quotes sherrif_hashim's twitter. Both links were posted by spirit jb on twitter, sure may turn out to be false but idk why spirit would post them if that was the case. Guess we will see soon enough
 
at this point i don't care what team releases it, i just want it :)


hopefully the limesnow thing is somewhat true. i say somewhat because you can't count on anything involving these things until the day it is out.

Musclenerd himself seems to have implied that an unlock will be out when 4.2 is released to the public (and that we should expect details in a few weeks)

This is what it says in limesn0w.com

This will never be real. Media, understand it. ~geohot

limesn0w is bs rumors, but I really hope there will be a new baseband unlock soon.
