    I tunes just wont activate the sim, doesnt matter what sim i use :S just doesnt work. Now i have the problem that i can't sync music becouse it needs to be activated.. i have the new bootrom 4.2.1 and the 6.15.00 bootrom (god why di did i ever jailbreak in the firstplace....)anyway i kinda can't live without push notifications and just only recently noticed it that i wasn't getting my messages from ping & whatsapp. wich are services i use many times a day.I have to use a custom rom to get this phone to work nowadays. use pwnage tool for that and i have had checked activate otherwise it just wont start, can't do anything then. Soo i click deactivate in redsn0w. use sam to once again deactivate (current version lost that button and renamed it to restock...... something can't exactly recall) anyway itunes just says the iphone doenst have a valid sim and cant activate :( please help!!!

    Iphone 3gs, ios 5.0.1Used SAM 1. deactivated 2. Ran latest redsnow jailbreak with all options offOnly problem is that I get Factory Activation under activation state. And SAM cant take it off. But other than that everything working right and no more network problems because of location services ON. Dont have battery drain problems either.

    I have an iphone 4 which I had upgraded to 5.0.1 and jailbroken with baseband 4.10.01This is an iphone locked to a canadian cell provider. I am using it with T-mobile USA using Gevey.SAM and SAMPrefs revert lockdownd to stock completely messed up my phone. 1. Now when I connect to itunes with the T-Mobile sim on a Gevey tray, iTunes tells me that this is not a supported SIM.2. When I reboot the phone it asks me to activate it then tells me the SIM is not supported.I am up a creek without a paddle. But blog after blog I've read that if I run 'Stockify' using SSH, it will undo the revert.Yet there isn't a single instruction anywhere on how to actually find and run this program - it IS installed on my phone. So if you've successfully run this program, please let me know how.Otherwise any help on activating this phone without original SIM is appreciated.Thanks

    Help needed urgently….Please….I have a problem with the SAM thing. Here is what happened. I wanted push notification and imessage on my recently jailbroken iphone which uses Gevey Ultra for unlock. So I installed the SAM and I started following the steps. I went as far as clicking the ‘Revert lockdown to Stock’ which gave me a successful message, then I was supposed to sync with itunes, but I tunes said that my sim was invalid and stuff but I was still using the iphone. So I tried again and again no luck. Then I thought it would be a good idea to uninstall the SAM thing and then I rebooted my iphone. Now just when the iphone is on, it says connect to itunes and makes me choose wi-fi networks. When I connect to itunes, it says, ‘The sim card inserted in this iphone does not seem to be supported’. Im living in Africa, so there is no way I can get the official sim card. What can I do please tell me. My iphone is unusable for now. Should I try to restore from a backup or something…?The phone is iphone 4, ios 5.0.1, Gevey Ultra unlocked, baseband 4.10.01, and was jailbroken.Please HELP!!!!!

    Have to say, followed a tutorial like this to the letter and it worked perfectly. Running an iPhone 3Gs (old Bootrom) on ios 5.0, with iMessage working perfectly. Piece of piss to do, would reccomend you try if you are a bit worried, don't be, worked flawless on this model anyway. Thanks for the tips. :-)
