iUnlock Reloaded: free iPhone unlocking for dummies now available

Wake the kids, phone the neighbors, the graphical new version of the iPhone unlocking software is now out, official, automatic (or as much as it can be) and free. Developed by the iPhoneDev team, the new software makes opening up your iPhone to any GSM carrier simple as pie. According to the Dev Team, "This new version needs only be copied over to the phone and executed, it's full automatic. No more needs for fls or extract bin files out of the nordump. It should also cut the time down to max. 3-5 minutes."

We'll bring you more just as soon as we get hands-on with the new wares (eh hem, all our iPhones seem to be unlocked at the moment) and as long as Apple doesn't drop the hammer with a new iPhone firmware release. We know it's coming, and chances are it will wreak havoc with the unlock.

Update: Not so dummy-proof Instructions and more after the break.

Update 2: GUI version is now out.

Here's the latest from the iPhoneDev team:

"It works like this:

• upload all 3 files to your phone in some location you prefer
• ssh in
• run iUnlock_Reloaded (./iUnlock_reloaded)
• be happy if its done

The push the button iCandy gui version is not yet released [because] of troubles [with] the new toolchain. Will be out in a few once toolchain is fixed up."

maybe i am an idiot but how do you upload these files to your iphone if you haven't activated it yet?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 7:48PM]

Hi if you're using a PC just use iBrickr

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 11:28AM]

well how do you load this into your phone, in general?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 12:03PM]

You have to jailbreak the phone, which depending on what version you have of itunes, etc. people have had their phone constantly reboot because of an itunes update... so the word BREAK in jailbreak is key mind you....

You need to use a program like 'iBrickr' to Jailbreak the phone. Google it and you can find it all over the web. Instructions will be there on how to use the program, although it's fairly easy to use.

Can someone guide me through when it come out of the box to the unlock. Yeah, I'm not so smart

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 1:32PM]

Well you're not alone.
We need some kind of centralized information with all these updates popping all over the web.
Let's say I get an iphone box now.
will ibrickr bypass the AT&T activation process?
Will I be able to update 1.0.0.2?
How do I upload those files? and how to use SSH to run a cmd?
this may all seem basic to you but there millions of people waiting for that kind of information!
You've been awesome guys, but all of this is useless without some kind of walkthrough...

Nevermind my above post - I was running it from my mac ssh'ed into my phone.

I realized that the run had to initiated from the phone itself.

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 7:03PM]

So will we need any other program then ibrickr? Would I need SSH?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 7:24PM]

If you dont know how to do it, you probably SHOULDNT do it. Unless of course a 400$ brick suits your fancy.

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 8:04PM]

What is SSH?

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 15th 2007 8:51PM]

Secure Shell
