Currently, the 3G (software) unlock which is not baseband-dependent is the biggest missing piece of the iPhone community. It is more difficult than the previous unlocks due to the fact that the baseband bootloader is signature checked. The Dev team has successfully unlocked all baseband versions until 02.11.07, by a baseband exploit. The unlock is planned to be released in New Years Eve before 2009 (31.12.08). [1]
Possible Methods
Class 1
- Find an exploit in the bootrom to break the chain of trust

- Find the theorized algorithm of NCK generation
Class 2
- Use a SIM hack such as the TurboSIM Unlock
- Find a way to patch running memory to "unlock" the phone on every bootup
Resources
- Read about the X-Gold 608
