Got a tip for us?

Do you have SHSH/blobs for 5.x or manually saved SHSH's for 6.0-6.1.2?
Than you can restore to those, if you don't have SHSH's you can't upgrade.
Does she need an unlock as well? if not you can restore without preserving the BB, still need the blobs though.
You can try to deactivate with SAM (from Cydia) to try to restore the push notifications. 4.x
Getting iMessage and FaceTime activated on unofficial carriers is troublesome because those carriers misread the activation code sent by phone as an international SMS.
If its locked to AT&T you can purchase an IMEI unlock for it.
Then restore to the latest firmware and once its officially unlocked everything like imessage and facetime should work fine.
