iPhone’s Root Password Already Cracked

Written on July 05, 2007 by Nick Santilli and 3 people have commented

While this information will currently be of no use to you, it’s still interesting/impressive - and maybe only if you’re a hacker at heart…

It seems that it took some curious iPhone users only 3 days to hack an iphone firmware image and discover the encrypted root password and then to crack it. The super-geeky details can be found here if you’re interested in that sort of thing.

You can click through the link above to find the passwords if you so desire, but again, it really does you no good at all. For now.

    Sure it does. It gives me a general feeling of well-being - considering that by the time iPhone is out in Europe, there’s a good chance I will be able to add my own apps, or a carrier of my choosing…

    I download iPhone unlock software from
    http://www.dvdtoiphone.net/unlock-iphone.html
    But it seems that the tool only activates iPod and Wifi, not the Phone.
    How can I use the iPhone without AT&T?
    Thank you.
