Announcement: iOS 4 and our Carrier Bundles

The Team — Sun, 20 Jun 2010 23:16:41 +0000

Well everyone, the time is nearly upon us for iOS 4 and it is with great sadness that we have to announce that our carrier bundles no longer work with the new iOS 4. We have a copy of the stock bundles from the first beta of iOS4 and upon opening them up we have found that Apple are signing them again. Unfortunately the stock bundles haven’t changed in the public release [of iOS 4].

You may remember when Tethering in 3.1.2 was blocked because Apple were signing the APN’s in the bundles. When they released 3.1.3 they changed the way they signed them and this allowed us to get them working with all the features.

Unfortunately, they are signing the bundles in a new way again but this time it is at root level. This is now disabling them completely, whereas before it only disabled the specific feature they wanted to block.

We have tried and tried but unfortunately we were unable to get past Apple’s signature in order to get them working.

Now this isn’t to say we are going to stop. We will continue to get the stock bundles as the new versions of…

Heads-up: Our bundles don’t work on iPhone OS 4… yet

Steve — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 21:11:28 +0000

This is a heads-up to let you all know that our carrier bundles don’t work with iPhone OS 4 right now. To be super-clear: iPhone OS 4 isn’t out yet, but a beta (preview) version of it is out for registered Apple developers. We haven’t had the chance to install it ourselves yet but reader simonwhite has and unfortunately he has advised that the carrier bundles don’t work with it. So: if you need our carrier bundles working, do not install the preview of OS 4 yet.

We’re updating our iPhones today and needless to say, it looks like we have a few coffee-fuelled nights ahead of us to get this thing working again but the good news is the public release of this is at least a few months away (probably July if previous years are anything to go by). We’ll keep you posted on progress, but bear in mind that until the final release is out we still won’t know for sure if we’ve done it. Until then: continue to enjoy OS 3.1.3 with fully-working bundles!
