The CDMA version of the HTC Touch has been hacked by the Windows Mobile community. In light of the Alltel HTC Touch being upgraded to Rev. A, it was only a matter of time before they community busted this thing wide open. Not only has Rev. A been unlocked, but the GPS in the device has been unlocked for use as well, thanks to some patches gained from the unlocking of the Mogul’s GPS when it saw it’s update.

The update comes as great news for owners of the HTC Touch on Sprint, Verizon, and Alltel. The hack is available for use now. A step by step guide for the hack can be found here. As always with these kind of things, you have got to be careful, as this is on the bleeding edge of Windows Mobile hacking. The step by step makes it seem pretty easy though, just again be cautious.
