George Hotz iphone hack

[ioshacks62]

ioshacks.info has a great jail breaking guide.

[yzbyrak]

he should be the ceo of apple now lol

[chadrok22]

those guys are fucking rude!! they dont get it.. its not about how easy or hard or how many people do it. its saying I did this and it was fun!

[brendanlovett14]

I love my hacked iPhone Cydia and jailbreaking have always been a great idea

[OrionArmyAngel]

Perhaps the "ANONYMOUS" group is denouncing to Sony that somebody thinks he is "GEORGE HOTZ", "THE PRESIDENT OF NIBIRU" and that "GEORGE HOTZ#2" is "mentally retarded" thinking he has a "HOLY SPIRIT" and that it was his "smelly brain" the one that turned the "Sony Playstation Network down"!!! HA, HA, HA, HA!!!!!!!!!

[JR113FTW]

i woulda told that cocksucker on the top right im only 17 and i did this by myself, if you can keep up dont hate on me

[fobodian]

WOW that was geo hotz! i always wanted to know who this guy is since im in the jb scene

[TheBalthierX]

This dude just needs to either be charged as a terrorist or have a bullet put between his eyes

[WillisTheRuler1]

If hes hacked ps3 I will murder him I cant play mw2 or blackops. Everything is boring whoever has hacked the server must die!!!!

[chrisstevensjunior]

how can you tell if he truly unlocked the ps3? there's other hackers who might've learned how to infiltrate the personal info.

[shady1293]

Do you really think he would hack the psn again after previously being sewed by Sony? He would be pin pointed first. He's too smart for that shit.

[revolvermikey]

and now he hacked ps3

[TheKejuan24]

@revolvermikey I know right.I cant even play metal gear solid online anymore.

[derman077]

Stickin it to the man! Just before college none the lass. He will get the sex, lol. 

[ZzOssieZz]

Haha they were talking smack, and then his like bam Blackra1n could of made millions if i wanted. GF /LIFE

[maplepie17]

Go Geohut

[latkeeeeeeee]

hakcs

[GOFASTER90]

It's really Funny because this story is good for Geohot and for Apple... because in a lot of countries Apple works with exclusive career and when a hacker find a new exploit, apple will gain more money because the rest of people would buy an iPhone in knowing that they could crack and unlock it and use their different career... And It's not the "fault" of Apple ! What a good strategy really !!! In this strategy, who are the real hackers and who are those who work directly with Apple !!? I have

[Jedieaston]

geohot for the win

[Life202020]

@androgender yeah, nice to meet you

[iloveshoes415]

This guy is a genius, thank you for letting me use the iphone.

[RanaSwihart]

OMG! Just found this crazy site giving away IPHONE4s totally FREE! !!

HONESTLY!

See for yourself!:

GetYourFree(REMOVEME!)iPhone4 [.] com

JUST REMOVE THE (REMOVEME)!!! :D

[emilowich]

These two idiots didn't believe in him. And then he made Blackra1n.

[bananajizz21]

@emilowich whats blackra1n

[stuff5001]

For all u comenters...Omg... I don't care way u used to unlock it iPhone they're all probobly spam stuff or u have to pay... Or u can frickin jailbreak it and get it for FREE

[pamelarise69]

I unlocked my iphone using unlockiphonenow org

Unlocking iphone never been so easy

It worked, I recommend it

[watarhassas]

I love this man

[myvirusbroke]

dude you are great

[allan1064]

Information should be free....yes

[allan1064]

3:11 OF COURSE

[psfanboy999]

this guy is a fucking asshole, getting the other os feature removed from ps3.

[wdfowty]

@psfanboy999 hahahahaha your stupidity amazes me. did you even use it, or are you complaining for old times sake?

turns out, he's working on a way to bring back the feature, even a possibility of "unlocking" it on slim ps3's...

watch?v=1-9wLWQ4-uA

read up or shut up :D

[psfanboy999]

@wdfowty To be quite honest I never used it, I never even had a need for it. That doesn't mean that it wasn't useful though. Many scientists linked ps3's together to form cheap supercomputers for simulations. Also, before you accuse me of being stupid, try using capitals :D

[wdfowty]

@psfanboy999 OMG, I forgot to press the "shift" button. You're now safe to feel smug :D

[tal32123]

@psfanboy999 not just that mostly because he quit making the jailbreaks for the iphone because he got his feelings hurt

[minhmeo1209]

That dude is changing my life

If he can hack a PS3 im getting one

[Kazz]

The dude that made Blackra1n.

[BlondeorBust]

And 2 and a half years later...

over 8.5% of all ipods/iphones are jailbroken

[christianplive]

the vid dies when it comes to the iphone hack explanation. was it youtube or apple that killed the video here??!!

[scim9]

lol, suck it proprietary phones.

[Ci5tm92]

Clever guy, cudos to him.

[TheMrgeekmania]

No hacking the iPhone is never gunna take off lol

[fabrixx08]

fucking nerd

[XboxNinjaGamer360]

well i bet this nerd is going to be making more money than you :)

[fabrixx08]

and who said i need money? fuck you bitch

[wilfrin07]

WOW !!!

[328gstarboy]

was für ein dünner hurensohn (HAHAHAHHAHA)

[tschendelmaia]

dafür 1000mal so klug wie du , du 6 lieber en geiles hirn als ein kopf gefüllt mit scheisse

[rrey0456]

That's to fucked up gehot looked pissed when they wer tryn 2 talk shit. I'm damn proud of geohot he declined that offer to buy his program. He woulda been loaded to we need more people like him.

[speedmagnet24]

and now we can do it withought even opening the case lol .. all software

[darylsblog]

lol they talked like it was no big deal

[Robrob007]

haha "don't expect the call from att by the way,  those folks don't call anybody"

[BleedingBoner]

" there may be a few hundred people who unlock this device." ironic, don't you think. mr. hotz has an amazing life ahead of him. good luck dude !

[iPodHackerz]

Anyone know how he learned to do this? I mean he was 17!

[braddudeguy]

God he looks like my old english teacher

[andyplace]

I IRC chatted with him tonight. It was a surreal experience. (Ok not really) but it was cool to get questions answered by an iphone-guru.

[vinthan006]

i can unlock it in less than 2 min by pressing a single click and waiting for 2 minutes

[mitzueclipse]

WoW now it takes like 40minutes with only software hack. i have two of them

[mikeweckstein]

my friend made it work for t mobile. and this kid went to my school. he's a genious

[XxSTE7xX]

unlucky he went to your school

[dshaw8219]

Bounty Hunters Wanted 211--328--532 you Should add me just because my attack is 108 and defense is 51 think of me as a free attack heli, and give me some weapons

[ihdzzzidz]

he's a real nerd

[LAHrebirth]

i'm not a yank, but the old guy is silly, no one will do it and crack it open

homebrew world is a hidden world out there, i opened up my psp no problems

[2k7demon]

im bored =( someone come chat with me a

[Coderoid]

sies!! look at those two sour old coots bashing him. lol they prolly dont have his IQ with both their brains combined :p

[festeradamz]

i used ziphone works fine all networks not some horse shit taking it appart

[thejomo]

george is my neighbor

[NinjaHawmie]

steve better hire this kid or this kid will take over hahahah!

[tunnguyen22]

thats a nice last name !!

[Andy4Tune]

Without open minded people like him,there won't be open source,without open source will be no progress,without progress most of you would sit in the cave (which most of you actually do).You should be thankful that someone is willing to put his effort to move onto higher level,so you can listen to your stupid music,play gangster on xbox, write even more idiotic comments stupefied by primitive propaganda.So if you don't appreciate it,just go beck wherever is that shit hole that you crawl out.

[Coderoid]

lolll!! well said!!

[Dotveoh]

it call OPEN SOURCE!the reporters are stupid because allot off people contributed time and effort but he was the main men! GOOD JOB hotz!

[dankeroner]

i love how kids run the fucking tech world

[Liystalander]

Ziphone Baby!!

[wackotm]

Ziphone: an application that stole the ramdisk exploit from the phone of devs.

bsides, he has to rewrite the application for 1.2.0 (without the ramdisk exploit)

[Brimax23]

He is my second cousin.

[touchdown305]

John Dvorak is a hater!

[mrmayor92]

he is ALWAYS looking at the reporters boobs

[DWFish]

What???? She doesn't have any!!!!!!!

[mrmayor92]

hahahahah

[zuzaloz]

good job dude...

[kingskamz]

ok but now we don't have to dissmantle the phone he must be nutts or rich!

u wanna talk man to man with steve jobs LOL

"JUST THE KIND I LIKE" LOL HoMo

lucky u got rich folks biyotch

[Aaron598]

i would of sold that shit got some real money. AT&T prob would of paid him to not tell anyone. but then he posts it for free

[waditafw1]

smart bastard

[homepc909]

ASSHOLES

[notofficialaccount]

haha hes funny looking

listen to his voice

[WARP10CK]

When Anysim came out this method was dead in its tracks. I used Anysim and it works great the 1.1.3 upgrade sucks anyway

[sds1522]

but is not a risk for apple maybe for at&t is bad

[sds1522]

Smart smart

[tuuvana]

good job

[beautifulblackmetal]

He probably found a site with information how you unlock the iphone. They were many intelligent people who know apple stuff and those had probably already hacked the ipod in few hours.

[beautifulblackmetal]

*iphone

[psphacker8]

John Dvorak is an ass muncher for saying that no one is going to try this. Look at all the videos on YouTube that show iPhone hacks and unlocks! Plus ALL OF THE IPHONE HACKING BLOGS AND SITES! =)

I agree with mammajama7! But the other guy was positive about the hack, he aint an ass hole

[mammajama7]

poor george, he almost had to fight for his life, so to speak, when he was talking to the other two assholes.

[PianoLT]

Nice haircut ;p

KEEP ON MOVIN' George

[arthurjo2]

Be careful boy you can get the FBI on your ass.

[sangsaratrip]

congratulation george, you're a fag

heheh

[Drummer122]

First of all I would like to point 3 things out.

1.)He was not the first one unlock the iphone and I do not understand why he got the credit.

2.)He prob would hack your brain if he can take other people credit in which they deserve.

3.)He is a dushe.

4.) Any further questions follow both 1 and 2

[briansawatzky]

i think your fucken jelious, because your not as intellagent as george is.

second your a pedofile who probably like giving it to little boys you fucken homo

[kingkishen]

what happens if you buy a ulocked iphone and activate it or when you hoock it to itunes

[boobyman]

well... If you activate it through a hack, and you jailbraik it, nothing happens. It asks you for the phones name and asks whether or not it should sync. HOWEVER! If you upgrade the firmware, you phone is bricked. meaning - you cant use it. Maybe as an mp3 player!

[bygsm]

yürü bee yavrucumm kim tutar seni dejan box yesin senin yanında tamsgm serkan45

[bygsm]

yürü bee yavrucumm kim tutar seni dejan box yesin senin yanında tamgsm serkan45

[athlon9]

Thousands of people are doing this.

I don't know what the ignorant people on TV were saying but they were wrong to say that a lot of people wouldn't do this.

The only reason I would buy an iPhone would be to hack it.

Personally I don't like apple because everywhere you look, they try to downsize Microsoft.

Everyone thinks that iPhone is the first phone to be able to do what it does.

Has anyone heard of a PDA or a smart phone?

[theoneagain]

well now everyone uses unlocked Iphones especially iwhere i live everyone is selling them on ebay fully unlocked to all service providers ready to go so HEY apple you guys are full of shit

[TheSockPuppetShow]

He so go pwnd on national tv...

The one chance of him redeeming any life, or social life, that he had. Is not, officialy... gone.

lol

[montaTonta187]

you pwnd yourself with your comment.

It doesn't even make sense.

I know what you mean but you didn't word it well.

anyway that reporter is probably the first hot girl that has spoken to George with so much admiration.. lol. i bet he was hanging to bone her!

[marbleskate3]

No! did and i works! i went to his blog and switched it to vzw. chicx dig

[neills]

lmao he thought it was legal

[DxRox22]

How the hell did he figure this out thats awesome!!!

[MisterJohnnyLeBaron]

I HATE the irratating guy who takes first. What a rat face. He is SUCH a tool.

[lagoskid]

LMFAO!!!

[dski1]

you heard that dude gholts?

[kunfu212]

free tell me

[Batman265K]

lol, yeah those guys are assholes. This kid is amazing, despite having no social life, he hacked the iPHONE!! Giant corporations burn in hell! These guys are saying that this won't have a giant impact, why don't we all follow the plan and stop using at&t for our provider. Show them we won't take it.

[miasmablk]

fucking assholes soo jealous of this 17 year kid...

[1critic2many]

That kid is smart. Dang.

[semicolonman]

glad to see that he dressed up for the occasion

[yankeesfan22vt]

that kids a fag!

[zsakul2]

Love his work! and its all amazing but.. he kinda has a gayish voice < not meant to be mean just saying its the tone of it

[wonderhowto]

i made tutorials out of George's work

he's brilliant -- hopefully he makes the next goog or facebook

i look forward to seeing what you do next Hotz

[5x5x5pro14]

he's spoiled if he gets an iphone and don't freak'n wants it.

[ambidextrous21]

he is so cool..he looks like a guy from an emo band

[lastchild01]

kid rocks, but their is a software update now, but this kid is/was amazing!

[watson2078]

"whiz kid"

[guy666]

nice no lawsuits!!

[ps3funnyboy]

fuck u stupid mother fucker kid

[ir0nm4n2]

I love how whats her face is all dressed up, and he's in a brown t-shirt that looks like he's had a 25 dumbbell hanging from it for three hours.

[yetipoop]

HAX boot this noob i got a kara tank

[Chaboya123]

lol kara, raid bt noob

[bcbp14]

Kids a nerd but he knows his shit.

[airsoftsniper4307]

kid did a great job but i'm still not gonna buy an Iphone cause $400 for a phone is a little much

[JasonCZ32]

Stupid old men are hating on the young nerd. I give that young kid props for accomplishing it, of course not many people are going to use this method but it is a leap forward towards the unlock software. +10 Karma to the GEORGE HOTZ.

[Frit0Pie]

lol those older guys are idiots...a shit load pple with the patience and skill will do it and sell them. i bet soon every high school and college campus will have somebody unlocking and selling iphones. the majority wants iphones and they will pay to be able to use it on there network.Untill software is available pple will do this and more iphones will be sold.

[dustinta]

HAX itouch too please

[7aji88]

I think Steve Jobs was waiting for this so more people would buy it; however he doesn't want AT&T to be pissed of at Apple

[jondaiten]

dat was cool

[Aznek]

Man! that old man in the beige jacket is a real douche bag!

That kid is pretty smart though, and humble

[MariaMitsakou]

very intelligent boy I wish he was my son

[xADxPHaRoAH]

1 word............McREEVEY

[Beavers347]

go new jersey!!!

[jodase01]

AT&T... Owned!

[hockeypwnge4]

i took guitar lessons at his highschool! and i might go to his highschool cuz i live right next to glen rock!

[vnj4x]

you'r great George....keep it up

[SeimeN131]

jealous guys can't stand this young genius and. "we don't waste our time in cracking the hardware! we need an easy way" *rolleyes*

great job george

[DEADMAN780]

the 2 old fucker need to shut the fuck up its so easy i did

[440voltz]

This kid is gonna go a long long way..Not coz he unlocked the phone but coz he says Information should be free..He is gonna make it too big one day..

[wammydatrines]

retard

[wowfactormax]

Dvorak you idiot admit it. he is smarter than you folks. so shut the f*** up and move on !

[cc1638xp]

can you do it? if you do, you can judge him, if not, you yourself listen and watch.

[Greysgirl21]

what jerks, george, you're a genius. Those stupid guys "don't have enough time." way to knock a kid down.

[Princesaaymara]

Very impresive ahh

and the 2 guys from cnbc were jealus ... how a young guy like him did it ...

he spent 500 hours of his time .... and these guys from cnbc they were so arrogant too .... ahh t&t will not call you ... sillys ....

Good for him it is good to see a young people like him being smart ... and spending his time in something that he believes

[infraredguy]

at& and apple should have known this was gonna happen i my self have been waiting for this F*&KING NOOBS

[slygamer]

im sure that now that the iphone is hacked, people will flock to accomplish it in any way possible. whether it be software or with this soldering-technique.

[portugal124]

hahahaah the kid is so young and owned apple

[nubius]

Dvorak's comments drip with burnt jealousy. Kudos to the unlocked iphone, this kid will be watched...

[sfleuriet]

Absolute +1

[canche99]

This guy RULES...

I have a new hero now, his name is George Hotz.

[sweetandcuteClara]

he is so handsome and smart.

xxx

[davenowood]

sweet, can someone help me out with the details about the iphone, like costs and fees per month?

[brtrackbeast]

that kid is a beast

[kman5473]

damn straight, dude! info should never be sold, it should always be free!

[StylinRed]

JTagging???? Old satellite hacking tricks? geez

[captncaveman81]

George Hotz is number one

[gh0stpil]

Can someone link me to his blog?

Msg me.

[imdamaverick]

You are wrong Dvorak

[Elevator5]

What is the Difference between Apple, Microsoft, A Child Molestor and a Lawyer? NOTHING!!!!

[telephonic]

he is a GENIUS, and he looks like alex from the arctic monkeys lol

[intotherei]

GENIUS b/c he unlocked an iPhone? lol.

[jungyeonii]

whooo glen rock!

[BarYamin]

Brilliant kiddo.

Viva la piracy! xD

[sprsx401]

Good for this kid. In a capitalist economy, the consumer is supposed to choose what they buy and whose service they pay for, or at least have a choice. You wouldn't buy a car if you could only fill it up at one brand of gas station. This was a little exercise in freedom.

[RMutt1]

well said....this kid is a culture jammer of sorts.

[y0ungboy87]

this kid is smart but if i was him id charge to do it to other phones cause like they said most people wont do it them selfs in fear of breakin it but would probly pay and extra 100 or 200 for him to do it i know i would if i already dint have atnt cingular the only hack i did was ringtones and it was maped out for methis kid did it himself with nothing to go on he could have made alot of money for all them hours working

[hys436]

the blonde guy must have shares in AT&T

[usnavysss]

man i thought it was fake but its not till seen this phone.Wow what if apple sews him hope not .

"i never thought i would ever see the inside of an ipod" - Minute 3:55
