Wizcode Publishes Guide to Pocket Hack Master!
Well guys, take a look if you have Pocket Hack Master!
Speed settings are an essential part of Pocket Hack Master’s successful configuration. A speed setting is a set of parameters used to fully describe a unique combination of CPU, memory, display and other peripheral clocks. Different processor families have different set of parameters.
In our example we will be configuring a device with an Intel XScale Bulverde PXA270 processor. The Speed configuration module of Pocket Hack Master is used to configure the speed settings.
Part two of the guide containing tips on specific processor configurations will be published next week.

iPhone Unlocked!
Well, I’ve gotten info that the iPhone has been unlocked to work on other carriers, this time, using a SOFTWARE ONLY unlock! Complete with video proof. Well, AT&T, you have just lost your exclusive claim to the iPhone…
From Engadget:
It’s high noon, Apple and AT&T — we really hate to break it to you, but the jig is up. Last night the impossible was made possible: right in front of our very eyes we witnessed a full SIM unlock of our iPhone with a small piece of software. It’s all over, guys.
The iPhoneSIMfree.com team called us up to prove their claim that they cracked Apple’s iPhone SIM lock system, and prove it they did. (No, we don’t have a copy of the unlock software, so don’t even ask us, ok?) The six-man team has been working non-stop since launch day, and they’re officially the first to break Apple’s SIM locks on the iPhone. It’s done. Seriously. They wouldn’t tell us when and how they would release it to the public, but you can certainly bet that they’ll try to make a buck on their solution (and rightly so). We can hardly believe the iPhone’s finally been cracked. No, scratch that — we just can’t believe it took this long.
Again: we can confirm with 100% certainty that iPhoneSIMfree.com’s software solution completely SIM unlocks the iPhone, is restore-resistant, and should make the iPhone fully functional for users outside of the US. Read on for details and links to our video, and check out the gallery of images below.
