Ultral4me has been released

[Interstella5555]

Jailbreaking is totally reversible. The method they released is flashing the baseband to an ipad baseband which is not reversible and apple will be checking for that baseband on iphones sent to service.

Also i don't even own an iphone 3g or 3gs, i am only posting this because many people doing this process are not aware of what it imply.





I understand your point and i agree.

I think they should put more emphasis on the voiding warranty part and the unability to restore to a stock firmware, because right now this information is hidden in a big wall of text.

I'm not saying you can't make the phone look like new, I'm saying you've alreadyvoided by the warranty by jailbreaking, the fact that you can hide it from Apple is irrelevant. If I use a cracked version of software am I not committing a crime because the developers don't know? I hardly think so. If you want to do it, fine, but don't claim you're somehow reversing your original warranty voiding action because you changed it back before Apple sees it.

Could you please point me to a place where the Dev-Team said that they had an unlock prepared for the 5.14 baseband? I read no such information. In fact, they've been warning people for at least two months not to update to official firmware if they relied on an unlock because "[a]ny mistakes you make now may be permanent."

They do not have the software for 5.14 baseband but here the link you can look if you still want to get your phone unlock:

If you can please post back we want to know is work or not or can PM me.

Sure, post it here. I am curious too.

This is an example of how people don't know how to read things in context. And in my opinion why such a silly conspiracy argument is even being made in this thread.

If you read and understood the context of what iMrNiceGuy0023 is saying:

1. He is NOT saying he is trying this on his iPhone 4!

2. What he is saying is that he tried this and was successful on his iPhone 3G BECAUSE even if he messed it up, he still has an iPhone 4 AS A BACK UP!! Hence his statement "I have an iPhone 4 SO I was trying it out".

3. If you're not good at reading or understanding semi-complicated statements then imo you have no business jailbreaking or unlocking and whatever consequences ensue from your misunderstandings you deserve and brought on yourself.

 

[PsstGreek]

Wow.... seriously... They should re-title this Ultra-Lame

Just curious, how much apple paid them to make (hundreds of) thousands of people void their warranty ? Not like people had the choice right now.

For those who do not understand. You need to update to a baseband made for the iPad in order to unlock. People from apple will see that the baseband is from another iDevice and will void your warranty. You can't reverse your baseband after that, your iphone will be marked for life.

Believe me apple will save a lot of money when people with iphones 3G and 3Gs with ipad's baseband will come crying to their stores.

I'm sure GeoHot will come out with a solution sometime soon. Until then I would advise against the new unlock method.

Yes this is correct. Make sure to check preserve baseband XD



Dude hes on 4.0 ....... 5.13

Can you or anyone pm me this CFW made by pwnage tool. PLEASE!

Since you are on 4.0 and BB 5.13 ultrasn0w will work, no need to update to the ipad's baseband.

Step 1: Make custom .IPSW with a 4.2.1 and make sure to preserve your 5.13 baseband. Then install on your iphone the IPSW that you just made.

Step 2: Install Ultral4me aka ultrasn0w via cydia

But I don't have a mac, and I need for someone else to do it. I have this weird plan, but I don't want to take the risk.

So if one has a 3G on 4.0 they do not need to use the iPad ISPW?


My father has a 3G on 4.0 and it is dog slow. I need to retain his unlock-state however but move on to 4.2.1.

Ultran0w will work if you update to 4.2.1 WITH PWANGE TOOL ( if it is supporting 4.2.1) using the baseband preservation option since it supports 5.13 BB

However, i think i am wrong, because i know there is a baseband restriction on some firmwares like 4.2.1

just so we're clear, the OP is upset because the only way of doing something that contractually voids your warranty in the first place, can no longer be done in such a way that it is undetectable and therefore actually will hold one to the terms of their software license?

That's a pretty ultra l4me thing to be upset about.

The baseband restriction in iOS 4.2.1 only exists on the iPhone 4. The iPhone 3G and 3GS are unaffected.

Do you even need to run ultrasn0w again if you're already unlocked and preserving your baseband? I don't think you do—I thought the unlock resides entirely in the baseband and is unaffected.

ALSO: So, you don't own a Mac or an iPhone, but you're posting about how this is so awful? Why are you even on MacRumors?

I am not saying that I am looking for a 5.14 baseband unlock. I am asking CZK to provide some evidence for his completely unfounded claim that the Dev-Team has "advertised" a completed unlock for 5.14 and promised to release it after 4.2 was released. The fact is that they never did any such thing and CZK is just making it up.

Ultrasn0w uses MobileSubstrate to hook into the baseband. No changes are made to the actual baseband code. If you restore your phone, you need to reinstall ultrasn0w.

Like my man thelatinist said you will need to install ultrasnow again even if you preserved your bb. Only the 2G unlock survives restores and updates.

I own an iphone 4 32 gb locked............. wtf are you talking about.

When you run out of arguments you fall into personnal attacks. Good job man.

I don't even own or ever owned an iphone 3g or 3gs... your point is totally invalid.

Everything concerning why i made this post is stated in my previous posts.

That's even more l4me.

Agreed, what's even more lame is that he obviously is a jailbreaker and have used the dev-teams exploits, but wants to accuse them without any evidence whatsoever (except the fact that he doesn't like the way the new unlock works) that they are in cahoots with Apple:

how much apple paid them to make (hundreds of) thousands of people void their warranty ?

Yea... but it all makes sense I guess... maybe even Steve Jobs is in reality MuscleNerd!!

Dev-Team to Release ultrasn0w Unlock for iOS 4.2 / 4.1 baseband 05.14.02 in November.

MuscleNerd posted a reply on his Twitter account in a reply to one of his followers, who asked him when the unlock for iOS 4.2 would come and in the reply MuscleNerd replied:

The iPhone Dev Team has confirmed the fact that the ultrasn0w unlock for iPhone 3G/3GSon iOS 4.1 and iOS 4.2 with the baseband of 05.14.02 will be released a day or two after the iOS 4.2 has gone live, so that it may be tested to see if it?s working.



Considering the fact that the baseband for the iPhone 4 is different from its predecessors, it will probably take some while for the devs to figure out an unlock for iOS 4.2 on the iPhone 4 with the baseband 2.10.04; as well as iOS 4.1.

@simplysaru question was mentionning (reffering) to 3g and 3gs on 5.14 baseband.

Also, musclenerd says 2 days but it was 7 days which represent more than 300% more time.

This proves that they were working and talking about 5.14 baseband

I bet he read someone else post that the dev team said something along that lines and now is upset that he didn't go straight to the source for confirmation.

Where people get off complaining about FREE tools provided with plenty of disclaimers about end users using them at their own risk is beyond me. If someone's using using an unlocked iPhone they [technically] already voided their warranty some time ago.

This version of the unlock doesn't really change anything other than making it considerably more difficult to cover your tracks, and for people who use an unlock, this was a risk they already assumed in the first place.

To be clear, I'm not knocking unlockers at all. I'm using an iP4 JB on 4.1 and maintaining the 01.59.00 BB simply to maintain resale value. If at some point I mess up and need warranty service and have done something that doesn't allow me to cover my JB tracks and Apple notices, I'm prepared to take full responsibility.

All I know is that I lack the knowledge to develop the tools the Dev Team does, and the last thing I'd do is complain about how they implement the exploits that they give me for free without asking for anything beyond an at-will donation.

BTW, quoting another forum post hardly qualifies as proof straight from the Dev Team that they actually said what's in the post above. Things get lost in translation.

Also FWIW, I subscribe to MuscleNerd's twitter and nowhere do I see the tweet referenced above by the OP.
