This is the original iPhone. It was released on June 29, 2007 with a price tag of $499 for the 4GB and $599 for the 8GB. A $200 price drop followed the release of the phone. Later, the 4GB model was discontinued, with the 8GB model filling it's place and a new 16GB model filling the high end.

Internals

See: M68ap (Internals)[1]

Baseband

The iPhone uses the S-Gold 2 baseband chip

Application Processor

It makes use of the S5L8900 application processor. At the time, the iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPod Touch all use this same processor.

Bluetooth

Chip

Uses the CSR BlueCore4 Chip (BC41B41) (see high resolution picture above)

Software

Everything here pertains to the non-3G iPhone.

The iPhone has a Bluetooth daemon called BTServer that serves the little the iPhone currently does. It is launched by the /sbin/launchd process. On killing the BTServer process, launchd restart it almost instantly. One can observe that BTServer itself launches the BlueTool utility. If bluetooth was set inactive in the control panel BTServer call /usr/sbin/BlueTool -f /etc/bluetool/iPhone1,1.deepsleep.script. If bluetooth was set active in the control panel it rather calls the /etc/bluetool/iPhone1,1.init.script.

The '/etc/bluetooth/pcm-example.script' does not seem to be relevant to the iPhone as it uses COM1. To verify that the other 2 scripts were really used.

In order to fool around with bluetooth it seems necessary to prevent the BTServer from being loaded. The System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.BTServer.plist file can be edited. There is a 'disabled' key set to false by default. Setting it true will prevent BTServer from being started. With that small change I kind of experienced that GUI was really irresponsive. With BTServer completely deactivated, the control panel bluetooth item should say 'inactive' and the toggle switch set inactive.
