8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
So I was reading more like looking lol this vietnamese blog tinhte.vn and apparently this dude fulllove found a trick of how to unlock the 4s! Then I was looking around on how he managed to do that without any jaikbreak and ultrasnow.

It came out that he used a so call magic sim 6 in 1 which I looked up and that it could be possible. So what does a magic sim does. With a magic sim you can have all your cell numbers in 1 sim!

so i think what he did was copy an att sim card number then a foreign sim card number to have the 4s read that it is on att then unlocked the foreign part. Kinda confusing since I can't read vietnamese, but from what I understood that's how it works.

sauce of the blog!

Trying to get this all into google translate and see what the hell this guy is talking about, interesting for sure.

Just popped it into google translate, and didnt really get a whole lot out of it. It seems like this is a shot in the dark. If its not, its not really a software unlock like ultrasn0w but more along the lines of Gevey. i suspect that if it was a actual working solution that someone would have known by now. That was posted on the 12th and it hasnt popped up anywhere so i dont really see that as being legit. Or it may be spam and im just stupid.

----------

maybe some other country simcard yes, i did some chinese sim, clone to the magic sim, i try more then 20 tmobile sim no luck.

or maybe you still using these older simcard,that activated before 1990, you could try
 
I am Vietnamese and I have read the article, also I am still reading comments down below the article. There are total of 108 pages of comments. I have read so far 8 pages but no one even test the method yet because of tools that they need to look for. However, the guy "FULLOVE" who claims to invent this unlock is actively engage in this discussion.

I will continue to read more comments and see what I find out.:D

You mean the article? I am using my iPad now so it is tough but once I have a chance, I will.

Still reading pages and pages of comments now.

This guy is Vietnamese, who is currently studying in Rusia. He even post a YouTube video on it.... Interesting but not proven yet. ;)

I read a post from Gevey on there, it appear that they commented saying something about making the world famous 1.0.14, my phone on 5.0.1 is on 1.0.13, is 1.0.14 the "better" 5.0.1 update that fixes the no sim issue? Or is that BB something that is different on foreign iPhones?

According to the guy (in the comment section), he said it work on all 4s baseband 1.0.11 to 1.0.14. He said it work on iPhone 4 with 04.11 as well. Again, i am still reading their comments and so far I have not seen anyone in their test this method yet, except him :D

Finally, other guy also unlock IP4s (iphone 4s ios 5.0.1 baseband 1.0.14) successfully.
Stuffs required for unlock:
+ usb sim card reader
+ magic sim 6 in 1
+ mobile sim card that you're going to use with the locked Iphone4s (named :Simcard A)
+ locked mobile sim card comes with the locked Iphone4s

The way unlocking iPhone4s is similar to how Gevey sim is running. It is necessary to get KI specifications to do clone sim.

In this case, AT&T Iphone4s and AT&T simcard (Named: SImcard B) are used to unlock.

Step 1:
Insert Simcard B in Sim card reader, open Magicsim_v255 application to get ICCID, IMSI, SMSC from AT&T simcard. Save these data for later.

Step 2:
Insert SImcard A in Sim card reader, open Magicsim_v255 application to get ICCID, IMSI,SMSC and KI (Most important thing to clone sim)

Step 3:
Insert magic sim card "6 in 1" into Sim card reader, then write at No.1: data of simcard B including ICCID, IMSI, SMSC, and Simcard A's KI), at No.2: data of Simcard A including ICCID, IMSI, SMSC, KI found earlier

Step 4:
Insert magic sim card "6 in 1" in Iphone4s; for the first time checking iPhone will believe it is working on ATT simcard.
Enter Settings --> phone --> Sim applications --> Switch number --> choose Simcard A network ---> home, and Iphone4s will detect Simcard A network.

Nevertheless, at the left corner there is only a name of network without network signal.

Continue to:
1/Call 911 and Press home button while calling
2/ Go to Settings --> Phone --> Sim applications --> Switch number, and choose Simcard B network.
3/ Turn back to Call screen, end the call
4/ Type a command to request Simcard A network doing something (such as:*112# to check usage detail, it depends on particular network)
5/ Now network signal appears at the left corner.
6/ Call 911 to get TMSI
7/ Eject simcard and put it in again to finish.

Enjoy and continue to fix 3G

After reading more than 100 pages of comments on their site. None of them have successfully done the unlock yet. I will give them the doubt because of the short time frame (The guy just post this last Friday 1/13 and now just 1/15) and they need to look for all the tools they need, plus they need to look for what the call KI number.

Anyway, time will tell if this is legitimate or not. ;)
 
This is what I got out of it:

"The good news for you own a iphone 4s ios 5.0.1 baseband 1.0.14, introduce a little bit about myself, Le Minh Tuan is currently studying architecture in the city of Saint Petersburg Russia, today I introduce how you how to unlock iphone 4s untethered . Requirements to unlock: + usb sim card reader 6 in 1 sim + magic + local network sim card + sim iphone carrier network lock ' my way is to use sim transplant fool baseband the iphone 4s activities similar to gevey sim, but have a point to note all the sim card network addresses need to find some ki to use the method clone sim. For example iphone 4s its key AT & T Step 1: Plug sim AT & T into the usb sim card reader to use the program Magicsim_v255 to retrieve the ICCID, IMSI, SMSC's sim AT & T.luu it somewhere in your computer. Step 2: Plug sim network localization in usb sim reader, here I use Beeline sim Magicsim_v255 his program will next be ICCID, IMSI, SMSC and ki (most important)-used to clone the ki sim. Step 3: Plug the magic sim 6 in 1 usb sim reader and recorded in position No. 1 through No. sim AT & T (ICCID, IMSI, SMSC, ki-use ki of sim beeline, in position No. 2 through No. sim Beeline (ICCID, IMSI, SMSC, ki-numbers ki found USB memory card reader. Step 4: plug the magic sim 6 in 1 on the iphone, the first number you write with the parameters of the sim AT & T so that the sim card perfectly valid, in settings-> phone-> Sim Applications-> Switch Number Beeline sim then click the exit screen, iphone carrier search and receive automatic Beeline network, but the upper left corner where the waves do not have any bars only the network name beeline, followed by 112 call or 911 keep the connect button home revert to settings-> phone-> Sim Applications-> Switch Number select the sim AT & T, return to the call disconnect, then press code checking account example beeline is * 112 # iphone will connect to the network beeline and the amount in the account and activate the waves in the full 5 waves up bars, continue to call 911 or 112 to get the TMSI for the sim, then reduce speed to use slots sim notice no sim card push the sim to the end of the unlock. Iphone automatically search for waves on setttings-> General-> about-> item carier will still show that AT & T 11.0 but above the bulletin board is network will run the network Beeline, line at & t. Conclusion method clone sim makes the iphone think the machine is running on the sim AT & T but roaming. So when the unlock is complete not just 3G but must go to network on Data Roaming on. Making 3G is instant. Fix undeliverable messages you use the first key * # 5005 * 7673 # will show your message center number compared with the central message of the network you are using if not infections continue to use key ** 5005 * 7673 * the message center # of the message center will be changed to standard. fix errors on the 3G network: the iphone read the sim with the current AT & T too, so wear the data set in the cellular network as AT & T sim you have two options or the website http://unlockit.co.nz/ selected by the network you are using to establish a 3G connection or alternatively Any use of a sim for the reader while the parameters of the sim, the network will select the check box is selected on the cellular data network that item and then push it any sim sim out and insert the magic back in, then wait network name you fill up the necessary parameters to connect to internet and send mms, way better than the use of the connection through the web http://unlockit.co.nz/ fix because it is both mms messaging. Note again with you a way his untethered unlock sim magic should be able to withdraw the plug or shut down the machine on, turn it back on air is normal. Chúc you successfully unlock iPhone 4s and can vi vu in this festival. Pleased to be shared with others his methods."
