Latest revision as of 19:32, 8 September 2013
rewrite needed
first, I will say that this is better than nothing. but really I think we can do better than a copyopasta from the iPhone-elite wiki. we have 2.0 lockdownd patches already, let alone 1.1.4, so why not post them all and in detail like the iPhone-elite wiki ever so awesomely did. that is what this wiki is all about. also, some information on the activation shrt circuiting method would be nice to have. I would post it but I know that someone with better ARM experience would do a better job at it, especially wizdaz since afaik he was the onethat found it in the 1.2 days.
just my 2 cents, take it as you will
perhaps move the patches to the lockdownd page. and I don't like the rapidshare links

iTunes checks your IMEI, ICCID, and Serial Number with Apple's database. If they match, you receive an Activation token, getting you passed the emergency call screen and allowing use of the iPhone.
