How to Unlock AT&T iPhone Without Losing Jailbreak
As you probably know, AT&T started unlocking off-contract iPhones from April 8th.
The process to get your off-contract iPhone is very simple as we've explained earlier. However, if you follow the instructions sent by AT&T then you could end up losing your jailbreak, which is one downside.

Does it work ........!!!!!
-
You should note that this does not work for the 4s Since you cannot use Redsnow.
-
When I unlocked my jailbroken 4 after being told it was unlocked by Vodafone, I just put another carriers sim in, launched Itunes and it came back and said it's unlocked. Sorted!
-
Thanks for pointing it out, updated the post.
-
those arent question marks >_>
-
how do i send the message to AT&T?
-
What if I still have a contract? Can I still unlock it?
-
Of course, but not using this method. You should use an alternative "underground" method that is suitable to your iOS platform.

Nice! This worked for me on my 3GS. Really saved my ass on this one, I was actually contemplating restoring to stock firmware last night to get the unlock, glad I saw this article!
-
Instead of going through this lenghty method, what i did was install SAM from Cydia, deactived my phone using SAM and reactivated using Itunes. Took me about 15 seconds to unlock and get the congratulations your iphone is now unlocked message.

HAHAHA?????

iPhone not in contract with AT&T, either having completed a contract or purchased without contractAT&T account in good standingiPhone IMEI numberIf you meet those requirements, proceed:Unlock an iPhone Out of Contract with AT&TLocate the iPhone IMEI number and make a note of it:Tap Settings then tap GeneralTap “About” and scroll down to find “IMEI”Call AT&T either by dialing 611 from the iPhone, or call 1-800-331-0500 and then dial 0010 to immediately speak to a representative and skip the hold time (International users dial 1-800-335-4685 )Request your iPhone to be unlocked, provide the IMEI number of the device, and then wait for the instructions to be emailed to youAT&T will initiate a request to unlock the iPhone and then you have to restore the iPhone through iTunes to complete the device unlock. With the device unlocked, a micro-SIM from T-Mobile or other compatible networks will now work in the iPhone.

WOOOW it works.......I just Deactivate my iPhone 4 using redsn0w and i connected my iPhone to iTunes and it said "Congratulations, your iPhone has been unlocked.” I called AT&T and they send wait for a email on 4-21-12 but I GUESS YOU DONT HAVE TO WAIT JUST DEACTIVATE YOUR IPHONE AND IT SHOULD WORK..

Iphone 4s doesn't work
-
Yes ! That's true, I terminate my contract in 2011 becasue I moved out from US to my home country. Its been locked for all the time, day before I was reading some forums about AT&T unlocking started from Apr 8th 2012. I called the AT&T customer service and asked the same, after the verification they told me by Apr 24th it will be unlocked but here is the good part. Its unlocked in less than 48hrs, I restored the phone and got the message "Your phone is unlocked now" and I am using my Vodafone sim like a charm. Everything works perfect..

I mean my iphone 4s was unlocked by at&t but the step by step how to unlocked with out losing jailbreak.
-
I guess this Redsnow process deactivation doesn't work in India. I tried my AirTel SIM & the stock AT&T SIM(doesn't work) today coz its been nearly a week since I've been asked by AT&T CR to wait for email, which I didn't receive till today. Any help available for issues lyk dis?
-
What if I purchased iphone4 (without a contract) the day it came out. But I live overseas now and this iPhone basically just sits in my drawer since I can't use any other sim with it. AND I can't call AT&T since I have no service here? Is there any other solution to get my iPhone unlocked?
-
I mean my iphone 4s was unlocked by at&t but the above it show step by step how to unlocked with out losing jailbreak. Well it doesn't work for my iphone 4s.

@Marty : You can use Skype to call the AT & T customer care.
-
I have an iPhone 3G, will Redsn0w work?
-
