The iPhone 4 now uses the X-Gold 618. Unlike the X-Gold 608, the baseband now requires a signature akin to Apple's SHSH blobs for firmware files, so downgrading an updated baseband, provided there is a bootloader exploit, will be tougher.

Possible Methods

Class 1

  • Find an exploit in the bootrom to break the chain of trust.
  • Improve by several orders of magnitude the NCK brute forcer, and find a way to extract the CHIPID and NORID
  • 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. This is how ultrasn0w works.
  • Find an exploit in the Baseband Bootloader so you can downgrade the baseband, then use an unlocking payload, similar to ultrasn0w.
