I just did mine with SAM so I did not want to fully restore. but I im going to do a full restore. so I can clear ALL the cydia stuff. my 3GS getting a little laggy.
Oh you did, maybe I'm doin something wrong can you tell me what settings for Sam you used?
Can you use SAM for iPhone 4s?
Called to get on contract 4S unlocked by tech support. They had to verify a few things and put me on hold. I was told to restore immediately, did, and saw the unlock screen
I have received the e-mail telling me that my unlock was approved, but have trouble actually unlocking the phone.
I have iPhone 4, 5.0.1, with jailbreak I would like to preserve. I tried deactivating it both with redsn0w and SAM. I do not see "connect to iTunes" screen and the phone seems to work as usual with the exception of cell service.
Plugging it into iTunes briefly shows a spinner in iTunes, and then it shows the regular iPhone management page. After that SAM says the phone is wildcard-activated and it connects to AT&T. It doesn't show me the "you are now unlocked" message. Testing the phone with t-mobile sim showed it is still locked. Only once after deactivating with redsn0w and rebooting I got to "select your WiFi network" screen with the same ultimate result.
Am I doing something wrong? Should I try restoring with the stitched 5.0.1 ipsw? Does it mean that my unlock is not ready yet, despite the e-mail?
Thanks!

so in theory if you get the email your iPhone is unlocked correct? you just need to run through the Restore phase?
To my knowledge, restoring from previous saved SHSH isn't contacting apple servers correct? Your newly unlocked iphone needs to be in contact with apple's servers since they put your phone their whitelist. This is why, they tell all of us to restore and update.
That's false.
Shsh blobs are only there and used to restore to unsigned firmware, it has nothing to do with Apple's activation servers.
I restored my i4 to custom 5.0.1 ipsw and still got the unlocked message.
shows you how much I know about preserving basebands
Has anyone managed to get AT&T to unlock an iphone that is still under contract?
After getting the AT&T email I've restored numerous times but still have not gotten the "Congratulations, your iPhone has been unlocked" message in iTunes.
