Offtopic: Another uneventful day. Wonder if geohot will be successful in dumping the UK bootloader anytime soon.

IPtools

The iPhone Elite Team has packaged the tools, iPatcher and bricktool, that they released yesterday into one downloadable package called IPtools. Meant to run on the iPhone, the tools require

1. The BSD Subsystem (patricularly tar and gzip)
2. A way to copy files to your phone
3. A way to run commands in a terminal on your phone

Get IPtools here.

A detailed explanation of Lockdownd

An in-depth and detailed explanation of what Lockdownd is all about was posted on the iPhone Elite Team wiki. It's not necessary to read it, but if you do, you'll be able to learn about the different activation states, the circumvention of Apple's security logic, brick mode and more.
