iPhone unlockers and buyers beware about the newly released Gevey SIM unlock for iPhone 4 for up to iOS 4.3.1 and basebands 2.10.04, 3.10.01 and 4.10.01. The iPhone dev team member MucleNerd, has announced on his twitter account some bad news about Gevey SIM. MuscleNerd said that Gevey SIM is illegal in USA and probably other countires as it dials 112 (emergency) then hang up.
One of the steps in unlocking your iPhone includes dialing 112 and hanging up within 2 seconds. 112 is an emergency number in US and this may change depending on your country. In US, when you dial an emergency number, it may get routed to 911.
