Ultrasn0w 1.3

Never heard of version 1.3. 1.2.5 is the latest. You don't need to add that repo any more it is now included by default when cydia is installed.

 

no there is no unlock for that baseband only 1.59.00. sorry!

 

Ultrasn0w doesn't support your baseband your only option is a gravy sim if your on ios4 as i don't think they work on ios 5

 

Yes.

Nothing.

 

not a option at the moment!

 

Just sell it and buy an iPhone that works on your new carrier? You're not in "BIG" trouble as you say, it's a pretty simple solution that may cost you a small amount of money.

 

this is the best and only way at the moment! you can not downgrade your baseband not possible.. there is no unlock out there for 03.10.01 and no ETA

 

Yes, you are misinformed.
There is no ultrasnow 1.3 and you cannot change your bb to 01.59.00
You can use a gevey sim to unlock at the moment.
Just make sure you dont update your bb to the latest one that comes with firmware 5.0.1

 

Thanks AJ my bad on the Gevey sim I guess I'm out of the loop on that one! you can trust applejuice info TS

 

hi!

I have the same problem as kngbryn
I wanted to ask - would it be possible to unlock iPhone if I upgrade to some higher iOS version together with the baseband? E.g. upgrade to iOS 4.3 and whatever baseband comes along.

 

Currently there's a way to unlock using SAM also.
So you have gevey and sam if you want.

 

Then there's also carrier unlock available (for AT&T & VZW) if you meet thier requirements.

 

Yep. AT&T just unlocked my phone which I bought off CL. Took about 10 minutes with them on the phone. I only need to provide them with IMEI # to check.

 

Which carrier are you on? Many carriers offer free/cheap unlocks after a short amount of time. If you don't qualify, you can always pay someone like cutyoursim - they seem to list most major carriers.

 

Hi again!

Thanks for your replies guys. I tried SAM but it didn't work for me (it seems Apple already blocked it).
And I googled what basebands of iPhone 4 can be currently unlocked and apparently I am out of luck and updating iOS and baseband won't help me (am I right?)

I bought my phone in Japan from Softbank operator. I had a 2 year contract but I had to cancel it after one year since I was leaving the country. But I paid everything I owed them. When I asked whether they could unlock the phone for me, they said no (yes, softbank is a bitch). Now I live in France and wanna use the phone here. I don't know if I can have a legal unlock here. I guess gevey sim card is the only option I have now

----------

It was softbank (japanese operator). I guess I should have been more persistent with them about unlocking my phone but I just didn't have time for that because I canceled the contract one day before I left the country. I didn't know at that time that unlocking iphone was such a difficult task

 

Ah well... you're probably SOL with softbank. As far as I'm aware, they do not offer official unlocks under any circumstances (much like AT&T until recently).

Gevey or similar is basically your only option. Asides from just buying an unlocked iPhone of course.

 

Locked phones are ****. First, you have all these problems, second you're out of luck when you're traveling abroad and want to switch the SIM card to a local one (for Internet access?)

I've got a brick at home as well. Bought it privately, it won't meet AT&T requirements and I live in Europe.. The only ways seems to be ebay but who would buy now locked iPhone 4? ))

 

Why dont you spend like $2-3 and unlock it then with ebay?
Then it will be fully unlocked.

 

orange france

Hi everyone! Is there anyway to unlock iphone 4 locked on Orange, France network? Thanks!

 

Unless the baseband has been preserved at 1.59.xx, there is no software unlock.

You can browse the IMEI unlock thread here for an aftermarket vendor who could perform an IMEI unlock for that carrier.
