Gevey Ultra Turbo SIM Untethered Unlock & Fully Working Data

Published on June 26, 2011 by Richard Ker

Finally it’s here! This should really be the final version of the Gevey product line. The Gevey Ultra Turbo SIM.

Your iPhone 4 needs to be jailbroken to enjoy the untethered unlock.

How to setup:

Step 1: Remove your SIM card and cut it to fit the tray that should come with the GEVEY package.

Step 2: Launch Cydia and add the following repository:

cydia.furiousmod.com

Then locate the “FuriousMod” package and install it. After that’s done, a “No SIM card installed” error will pop up, that’s OK. Before proceeding, make sure your phone is turned off.

Step 3: Place the GEVEY SIM on the tray, along with your own SIM on top of it. Make sure both cards are on the tray, then insert it back into your phone.

Step 4: Power your phone back on and wait around 40 seconds for your signal to be detected. Ignore any errors and don’t interact with the device until your phone picks up the signal.

Step 5: In order to get 3G, turn on Roaming Mode by going into Settings > General > Network and selecting “Data Roaming”.

How to Delete GPS Cache After Baseband Chip Replacement

Published on June 23, 2011 by Richard Ker

Due to high volume of iPhone 3G and 3GS baseband chips being replaced, we may have missed testing the GPS on one or two logic boards.

If you have received your logic board and found out that the GPS is not working even though your baseband version is already on version 5.13.04 or below, you will need to delete the cache or temporary files folder for the GPS.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Download iFunBox for Windows or DiskAid for Mac.

2. Go to the following path:

/var/root/Library/Caches/locationd

3. Delete the ‘locationd‘ folder. Don’t worry about deleting the cache, it’ll rebuild itself next time your iPhone uses the GPS.

4. Reboot your iPhone and launch the Maps app. It should pin-point your location now and GPS functionality is fully restored.

Shanghai Chinese Girl Willing to Give Up Virginity for iPhone 4

Published on June 23, 2011 by Richard Ker

Young adults in China are taking serious measures to buy expensive Apple products, according to reports.

Biznewschina reported that a female jiulinghou (九零后), referring to those born during the 90′s, tweeted on Weibo (Chinese version of Twitter) that it is her ‘dream to own a iPhone4 but her father won’t let her get one.’

She then decided to sleep with someone in exchange for the mobile device.

The Shanghai teen has posted a picture of herself along with other basic personal information saying she is willing to ‘sell her virginity to anyone that buys her a iPhone 4.’

Her post has received negative feedback, pointing out that a phone is not worth what she giving in exchange. Others think that someone is using her account and pulling a malicious prank on the girl.

Last April, a 17 year old boy from Anhui bought himself an iPad and cellphone by selling his kidney for 22,000 yuan.

Sociologists blame such events on the rising importance of materialism amongst the young generation and their belief that there are no limits to how they satisfy their desires.
