Launch iPhone Configuration Utility
Step Three
Select Configuration Profiles from the Library at the left of the window.

A few weeks ago , we told you that a possible exploit for baseband 5.12.01 was found and unlock might be on its way. And according to aModMyi thread, we are almost there. In the very near future, baseband 05.12.01 could be unlockable for those of us unfortunate enough to be stuck in this position.
Now it doesn’t necessarily mean 3.1.3 will be worked on, but its good news none the less for those unfortunate users, and for the possibility of a group effort for the next unlock between GeoHot and the DevTeam. Discussed in an IRC channel, GeoHot and the DevTeam’s MuscleNerd, share some thoughts on the exploits they have found, and by the looks of things, might actually team up to dish out an ultimate serving of Jailbreaking goodness.
GeoHot explains that there is an exploit that he had previously discovered and wanted to use with the release of blacksn0w, which has now found to still exist in 3.1.3. He goes on to discuss how he had originally wanted to implement this exploit in blacksn0w but opted to go with an open source route, which makes sense to keep things slightly on the downlow.
It sounds as though GeoHot and MuscleNerd (Dev Team) may possibly be working on the same exploit, and if that’s the case, it would be incredibly logical for them to team up rather than releasing two different exploits, which in the end could just cause more greif when upgrading in the future.
What does geohot tweet mean?
its my bb exploit for safekeeping
geohot: did you turn that over to the dev team or are you doing something with it?
my days of turning things over are done
i hope its different from the one they have
but they prob already have it
its the one i orig wanted to release blacksn0w with
it’s still there in the new bb
yep, just checked
but then opted to use xemn since it was public
Oo, it carries over from 05.11 to 05.12?
why wouldn’t it, apple doesn’t fix things proactivly
geohot we prob should figure out a way to know if we have same exploit double blind, otherwise we may release 2 different ones at same time
any suggestions?
not sure how to do that without making it easy to brute force tho
yea, i salted the hash
yeah
hmm maybe if we both hash the stack dump
Can you two take this out of public sight?
the stack itself, not the header before it or the registers after it
muscle: any notice about the exploits are the same ?
we are working on it
cryptography, perfect for people who don’t trust each other
Again, we don’t expect much for 3.1.3 (Rumor has it OS 4.0 will drop mid March), but this is good news for those of you in an utterly awful situation if your phone has become more like an really expensive iPod Touch.
Gameloft has released their highly anticipated Brothers In Arms 2: Global Front game for the iPhone and iPod touch.

MuscleNerd just re-found a crashing command the yellowsn0w iPhone unlock was originally going use.
Ha just re-found crashing command yellowsn0w was originally going to use before +stkprof. Apple fixed it *accidentally* in 02.28.00.
some commands have come and gone. some command holes have come and gone. this command has come and gone but not the hole:)
it still seems accidental though 
there are no overt signs that they’ve closed the hole, but the byte alignment kills it
Earlier this month Sherif Hashim also found a baseband crash that might be exploited to bring a real unlock.
MuscleNerd also mentions a “bizzare apple rogue interpreter” that is letting him poke any values into BB memory.
Hopefully these findings will bring about an unlock in the near future.

New evidence found in the iPhone SDK supports the rumor that the next generation iPhone will support video chat.
9to5Mac has found a few icons in the SDK that seem to “indicate that there will be video calling on an iPxxx device.”
Additional evidence was found hidden in the underlying iPhone telephony apps which contain some “VideoChat strings that are equally, if not more, damning evidence of future VideoChatting capabilities.”
