As I (and I am sure most of you) suspected, yiPhone.org was all a joke. GeoHot never intended to release any jailbreak for 2.0, and would never use someone else’s exploit to create a jailbreak tool. What I cant get over is the amount of people that would post comments on his blog, cursing him out and calling him names.

Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

The same thing happened when the Dev Team were getting PWNED ready, a certain part of the community was just being awful to the dev’s. I am sure those were the Zibri fans, who were brainwashed into hating the Dev Team.

Anyway, GeoHot has posted saying that there is no YiPhone, it was all a joke to push the dev’s to work a little faster. But what Geo has done is find a new exploit at the DFU level which may lead to the Dev Team or him finding a way to unlock the iPhone 3G baseband

Also, heres why a certain person claimed the DFU was the key. You could, without any exploits, upload the 114 iBoot(even to the 3g), the 114 kernelcache(ok, this crashes on the 3g), and a hacked ramdisk. But the filesystems don’t mount. And even if they did, you’d need a way around sig checking.

Here is a little program(with source of course) to run whatever you want at the DFU level; an implementation of the dev pwnage 2.0 exploit. Pass it a binary file, it will start executing at the start of the file(no file formats to deal with). I’ll leave it to dev to explain the exploit used.
