It doesn't take the hackers long, the Apple iphone hasn't been around that long but already the hackers have been hard at work. Apple have done a good job at keeping them at bay but with smarter hackers learning new tricks there is nothing Apple can do to stop them. iphone hacks come in 2 forms good hacks that will benefit the user and enhance the users experience of his or hers iphone. Then there are the bad hacks designed to disrupt the users experience. There has been some talk of a possible WiFi based browser hack that enables the hacker to gain access to the iphones surfing history, passwords and emails account. These are obviously hacks that iphone users could do with out and Apple are doing there best to combat. Probably the most talked about iphone hack is the basic unlock. Some people are annoyed at the fact the iphone can only be used with AT&T in the US and o2 in the UK. Well it didn't take thew hackers long to get around this. When you take the iphone out of the box and turn it on, the phone needs to be registered with the carrier AT&T (or o2).if this is not done the iphone is completely useless. Some hackers have bypassed this activation step once this activation step has been bypassed it is possible to substitute the supplied
AT&T SIM with another carriers SIM. One of the most published hacks to date was when the iphone firmware was cracked. Apparently the firmware was downloaded from the itunes website where it was left for people to reset factory settings if needed. Then the hackers got access to the encrypted disk images and became super users within the system. This hack really has endless possibilities as in enables programmers to build there own applications. Remember as with any hack you are most likely invalidating the manufactures warranty and could possible end up with a bricked and completely useless iphone. Be Warned.
