I told my one of my coworkers about the flaw. He inturn told me about another flaw that allows anyone in possesion of your phone to make calls. All you have to do is hold the home button to activate voice control verbalize the number and the phone dials it.

Yes it doesn't show using SBSetting but it shows using Poof or iFile /var/stash/applications. I also have iOs 4.1.
-
that one can be turned off easily tho through settings (voicedial), but yeah i guess you are right.

IT'S OK..LOL..Android is having the SAME issue..lol..So it's NOT JUST...APPLE OR SONY. But I agree How many people actually Look@ Youtube JUST TO SEE...if they can steal someones iphone? LMAO..Most of them can't even SYNC..their contacts too their itunes account..SO..either way..it doesn't bother me..cause I never leave my iphone unattended.

Sorry but you are a moron to actually believe what you just typed. @Clrg and AC you are the ones who need to get a life.
I love my iPhone and my MacBook pro but it doesn't mean they have no flaws like some of you boneheads makes it sound. Yes the website is for apple news but remember news can be good and bad. Tired of all y'all retard kids blowing yourself and typing shyt.Yes

hahaahahahaahaha :) funny guys..thats why i like this site!!!!

How secure do idiots expect their phone to be? This is a non issue. If anyone leaves an iphone unattended, guarantee that it'll be gone soon after.
The new user can just wipe the iphone and set it up as a new one. Very simple. No one cares about your contact info, and if you were a high class assassin or drug dealer, you wouldn't be on an iphone in the first place.

It may be a flaw, but I'd be less concerned with keeping my contact info safe than with keeping my PHONE in my possession.
And, if any of my contacts are going to fall victim to a scam, the method of contact is the least of their problems.

ru 1 of em? Think, why go to the hassle when you can just re-jb the phone? maybe you would go that hassle just to call your mom, or e-mail ur bf!!!
-
that is exacly my point!
-
You are in this site cause u wish u had an iphone :D Looser! ha!

I could use a phone with better security than this. Any recommendations?
-
What a bug on iOS 4.1
Anyway, i don't use passcode, bcos i hold the phone whenever i go, so doesn't bother me much. -

The flaw is present in 4.0.2 too!!!!!!!!!

Exactly - I even got rid of the lockscreen, much less the passcode.
