Steve – the guy who was behind PushFix 2.0 (the first real fix for Push Notifications) for unlocked iPhones has just released Blacksn0w RC2. This version of blacksn0w is basically a repackaged version of the original unlock released by geohot, and the fix which was recently released by MSFT Guy for 05.11.07 baseband on iPhone OS 3.1.3.

If you have activated your iPhone through an unauthorized carrier (aka hacktivation) on iPhone 3.x, then your Push Notifications functionality in most cases will be broken. Even if you have tried getting it to work through “PushFix” via iPhoneil available in Cydia, it wont work as that fix uses a single shared certificate for all users who have installed it. This causes battery drainage and huge use of cellular data access.

Facebook version 3.1 app for iPhone and iPod touch is out! and it brings the much needed support for Push Notification System, along with ability to sync facebook contacts with the native iPhone contacts app. The change log of Facebook 3.1 iPhone app is as follows.

We are giving away 5 (five) keys of PushFix 2.0 for unlocked iPhone 3.x for free with absolutely no strings attached.
