iClarified is reporting that ElektroPower, a repair shop in Istanbul, Turkey have figured out a way to unlock iPhone 3G running iPhone OS 3.1.3 using a hardware hack.
They have also published a video to show how to hardware unlock iPhone 3G.
As you can see in the video below, the guy is performing a hardware teardown to reflash the iPhone baseband down to 04.26.08 so that it can be unlocked.
It goes without saying that the teardown will definitely void iPhone’s warran
We must add that it is difficult to confirm the authenticity of the unlock but MuscleNerd from iPhone Dev Team has commented that it is one of the ways to reflash the baseband back down to 04.26.08.
