I bought an iPhone 4 from a friend and he told me that its officially unlocked!
the iphone work with any sim card. The problem is that I found that Ultrasnow is installed & my baseband is 04.12.02 I know that Ultrasnow unlock iphone 4 with basebande 1.59.00. But when i deleted Ultrasnow the iphone become sim locked and don't work with any sim card.
Then I reinstalled ultrasnow, the iphone work's again with sim cards.
I want to know what is the problem & if my iphone is officially unlocked I tried with IMEI.com website but give me nothing!


Now my iphone is on ios 5.1.1 baseband 04.12.02.
 
do i have to restore ??
cause i don't wanna lose my jailbreak, is there any other methode ??

Open cydia and click tss center. Do you have shsh blobs for ios 5.1.1? if not, use iFaith and dump your SHSH blobs. This will allow you to restore your device back to iOS 5.1.1 and get an untethered jailbreak
 
You do not need to restore to deactivate your phone. You can deactivate with redsn0w or SAM and avoid restoring.
 
iPhone 4 baseband 04.12.02

May be the phone is not Factory unlocked and is only Jailbroken. Factory unlock can solve this problem.

Maybe read the whole thread first, he checked the IMEI and it says unlocked.

Do some research, you will find out what works and what doesn't work on unlocks, jailbreaks and BB's

Ultrasn0w will never work with your baseband.
Your option is an IMEI unlock
