DreamJB Confirmed Fake [Unfortunately]
We posted earlier today about a skeptical but possible untethered jailbreak for all iOS 6 iDevices, including the iPhone 5, iPad Mini + others. The DreamJB team have uploaded a youtube video (shown below) which has been confirmed fake by many users within the Jailbreak community including MuscleNerd. The video is one of the most, if not THE most, well done fakes we have ever seen, but even the best fake still has some discrepancies. Now, other than the fact that the DreamJB “developer” has already admitted that this was nothing more than a “social experiment,” here are …

Siri port to iPhone4 and iPhone3Gs update
For those who are following the Siri port progress, it has been a crazy 72 hours. We have seen everything from fake siri “releases” to people claiming they have a port but refuse to release it. One thing is for sure, progress is being made all the time. Over the past few days iBrandon and myself have been lucky enough to work along side the Iris Dev team while they continue to perfect the Siri port to other devices.
At this point, it appears that they have the port fully working besides being able to access the servers, which …

GEVEY Ultra SIM Allows iPhone4 unlock on any baseband legally without dialing 112
It has been 3 months since we first announced the GEVEY SIM unlock method for iPhone4s running basebands which are not currently unlockable with via software. This method was very expensive when it first surfaced and also was in a gray area in terms of legality since it required the user to dial the 112 emergency number to initiate the unlock. However, a new GEVEY Ultra SIM has been developed which allows you to permanently unlock your iPhone4 on ANY firmware, including iOS5 beta 1, however, Apple has blocked Gevey SIM unlock method in iOS5 beta 2+ It also …
Redsn0w 0.9.6rc14 already on it’s way
*UPDATE* Redsn0w 0.9.6rc14 is out now
Soon after the announcement that @i0n1cs untether had been added to redsn0w 0.9.6rc13, we have received word from many users, and now confirmation from @musclenerd that rc13 is NOT working on iPhone4. I have also heard reports that the issue exists on the iPT 4G as well. For now, if you have either of those devices, stay away from rc13. A new patch should be released soon to address the issue although there is no timeframe.

A few days ago we reported on a new SIM Interposer hack for iPhone4. This is an unlock method that is for those who are desperate to unlock their iPhones and it has now been confirmed working.
Gevey recently released a SIM Interposer which can unlock the iPhone up to iOS 4.3 by force activating the baseband using the emergency dialer.
The SIM Interposer works by adding a EEPROM chip to your SIM card just like a TurboSIM. You then call 112, a number that can be called from any GSM phone, free of charge, with or without a …
iPhone4 Unlock Solution SIM Interposer 112 Emergency Gevey Hack
A new hack has been developed that will allow some people to unlock the iPhone4 even on the current baseband. This hack is expensive and legally questionable so make sure to read the summary at the end of the article before you decide to proceed with this hack. If you are desperate, this may be a viable option for you, but we recommended to just wait until the NCK iPhone hack is released by the Dev team.
