Filed under: Cellphones, Portable Audio, Portable VideoWe were invited by iPhone / iPod touch file system hacker Niacin (who you might also know for his PSP and MSN TV Linux cluster hacks, etc.) and Dre to test out their new v1.1.1 file system hack. We know the whole v1.1.1 hacking thing has been massively confusing even to folks like us, so here's a quick n' dirty timeline to bring you up to date.
Apple releases iPhone, which was obviously cracked six ways from Sunday.
Through firmwares 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 Apple does not block these hacks in any way.
Firmware v1.1.1 is released for iPhone and iPod touch, which completely locks out file system access (and thus 3rd party software)
