How can I make my AES encryption identical between Java and Objective-C (iPhone)?

Since the CCCrypt takes an IV, does it not use a chaining block cipher method (such as CBC)? This would be consistant with what you see: the first block is identical, but in the second block the Java version applies the original key to encrypt, but the OSX version seems to use something else.

EDIT:

From here I saw an example. Seems like you need to pass the kCCOptionECBMode to CCCrypt:

ccStatus = CCCrypt(encryptOrDecrypt,
        kCCAlgorithm3DES,
        kCCOptionECBMode, <-- this could help
        vkey, //"123456789012345678901234", //key
        kCCKeySize3DES,
        nil, //"init Vec", //iv,
        vplainText, //"Your Name", //plainText,
        plainTextBufferSize,
        (void *)bufferPtr,
        bufferPtrSize,
        &movedBytes);

EDIT 2:

I played around with some command line to see which one was right. I thought I could contribute it:

$ echo "Now then and what is this nonsense all about. Do you know?" | openssl enc -aes-128-ecb -K $(echo 1234567890123456 | xxd -p) -iv 0 | xxd
