Since its launch this “Jesus Phone” never left the gadget news. Since its launch hackers around hte world have been trying to unlock this phone so it can work with any other provider.

Some of the sites that are providing this solution are:

1. iPhoneSimFree - They charge $49.95

After paying the amount and installing the application provided by them on your phone you can get it unlocked just by sitting at your place.

2. iUnlock - They charge $100 and offer remote unlocking.

3. AnySIM - They offer free GUI based open source iPhone unlocking applications. Download here.

Official website.

4. UniquePhones - They offer iPhone unlocking. Pricing is somewhere between $25 to $50.

5. iPhone Hardware Unlock Tutorial - Be cautioned, you need your best eyewear and a very steay hands to do this.

6. iPhoneNirvana is selling the unlocked iPhone in India for Rs 27,990 or $699 and charging $20 shipping and handeling. Total cost would be $719 which is way too expensive since the prices of 8GB iPhone dropped a week back to to $399 and open source unlocking application available. This is just way too expensive.

If you have some extra money, you can go ahead and pre-order it now.

All the unlocking applications/services (free or paid) currently do not offer any guarantees about the upcoming firmware updates. After updating your firmware your iPhone might not work with other SIM cards or in the unlocked mode.

You would not need to unlock it when released in India.
India will see the unlocked version of iPhone, probably next year.

So long time since I am writing something on a blog, even though it’s just a comment.

P.S - Sumit, you can change the admin nickname from your WP admin panel, you writing ur posts and comments as admin sounds awkward :p

P.P.S - Iphone Sucks (atleast for now), Cracks are useless. They make it freeze and then disappear with the firmware upgrade. No OTA music transfer. Altogether a bulky device. Talktime claim is 5 hrs, but lasts 4-4.30 hrs and no detachable battery (I mean like seriously, wtf ?)

P.P.P.S - Hey Nakul, Abhishek here, take my intro from Sumit. We’ve never talked, but heard a lot about you. Your website needs some fixing in the C.V area et al

P.P.P.P.S - Am sick of these P.P.P.ses so yeh, adios for the moment!
