iPhone Hacktivate iOS 6.1

You cant hactivate 6.1 yet.
Maybe redsnow will be able to do that when its updated.

did you tried with sn0wbreeze ?? it has the option to hacktivate when you build the ipsw

If youre on 6.1 then you can use Redsn0w. Just find a 6.0 IPSW for your device, load it then jailbreak. Youll be activated to 6.1. Worked for me. Search youtube "hacktivate 6.1" because thats what I did.

Hi,

With the new snowbreeze (2.9.9) , by choosing simple or any other method want.
(btw all of those methods preserves baseband)

Simple mode ; jailbreaks+activates+preserves baseband.

Firstly choose your ipsw like 6.1 to be created via snowbreeze, then choose simple mode, and continue, the custom ipsw will be on your desktop.

Put your phone into dfu mode, then with iReb put your phone into Pwned dfu mode. (in addition to this, be sure that you don't have gs.apple.com on your host file, if so delete that line, else itunes will fail with error of 1600/2 etc)

Now go into itunes while your phone in pwned dfu mode,
shift+mouse click on "restore iphone..." ,
and choose the custom ipsw which is on your desktop.

you will be on 6.1 without any issues.

To install custom firmwares, it was used to be like that, recently it has changed, that's why i said it, you might have forgotten it there..

you should not block, in other words that line (74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com) should not be there.

And if your iphone is simfree , you don't have to care about your baseband. It is only important for gevey users(simlocked devices).

Vmware might cause such problems, you better try without them.
For pwned dfu mode, your screen should be fully blank. Boot your iphone normally, when you reach the lockscreen, hold power button and turn it off. Later on put into dfu mode, and run iReb for pwned dfu mode.
