hi i'm from panama, central america. I downloaded SAM and used auto detect and worked perfectly.Thanks.
-
Yes, but unless you've been living under a rock, you should know that AT&T will OFFICIALLY unlock an iPhone with a completed contract. MUCH better than using SAM.

Amazing ! One question if possible guys Let's say I have ATT as original SIM and T-Mobile as back up. By "unlocking" my T-Mobile sim will I be able to insert my ATT original SIM back or I'll need to "unlock" phone for ATT again ?Thanks I am sure more than one person wondering the same thing.

Farts in my bum bum;)

Anyone know how to restore settings back to factory or even restore an activation ticket after performing the method above?

Anyone know how to restore to factory activation settings or back to a backed up activation ticket after performing the above method?

Thanks for the reply. Is there any way to unlock it if you have internet connection on your laptop but no wifi on your phone?Thanks again
-
If I unlock my iPhone 4 5.1 using this method, will I be able to restore the iPhone without losing the unlock?
-
Anyone know if its possible to unlock a 4s for Verizon or Sprint so that it would work on T-mobile or At&t in the US or worldwide?
-
Settings --> delete all dataWill wipe, deactivate, but not restore the iPhone. You'll have to re-jailbreak it, but that will be possible, because the phone hasn't been restored.Assuming nothing goes wrong.

Worked great for me, but had to turn on 'enabled' in the SAM option on the 1st screen of SAMPrefs. I was using Gevey Sim before, now no need!-iphone 4 GSM-4.1 ios-02.10.04 BB-Thailand dtacMy question is, can I now update to latest ios and maintain my unlocked phone state? Previous answers are not clear.Cheers
-
you must de activate it before you see the attempt to activation
-
If error persists like 'need valid sim card', and Device state is FactoryActivated, you'll need to deactivate by restore lockdown stock in "more utilities". Then, Choos 'country and network' SIM ID <--- first one. Then, tap 'Attempt Activation'.
-
you need to 'restore lockdown stock', choose country and network instead auto detect. SIM ID<--- first one. i forgotten. then attempt activation. you should get signal searching.... wait a minute. there u go... i just did it and had the same problem. thats my solution what i did.

hey guys i just got my unlock from att but i bought my wife and iphone is unlock by gevey sim card if i try this sam method how long does this last ? do i have to worry about the software updates ?
-
Just create a ad-hoc internet connection from your laptop and connect iphone to this wifi

Fernand Huang@ NOT workingIphone 4 - 4.3.3 error. You must select the original carrier SIMID of your phone.I tried to select Country and Operator but no chance (Bouygues France). Operator has 2 SIM IDs. I tried both and between atempts I press Revert Lockdown to Stock to ensure a clean restore. No chance. I begin to belive that there is a problem with this operator.

Sorry if I'm confused... but why not just install new ultrasn0w? Think it is in beta maybe but still works... specially if you have ipad baseband anyway...
-
Man it works, after fiew attempts. Extra, now I can put my gevey card to some dark place :) Excelent work !!! Sorry for bad English ;)
-
Check the latest video on this, with old sam method I was able to do it, just insert AT&T sim back and your good. No need to do it again. According to video you must activate your AT&T again.
-
You need to update to 5.01 better. Don't forget to do a custom firmware preserving your base band. Use latest Redsnow
-
Im having problems with 2nd, 3rd sim etc. after a while it loses signal. But my 1st sim (the one i used first) never fails. Any toughts about it?
-
What if I once unlock the phone with one SIM card and then want to use another SIM card. Is it possible to do it or i will have to restore/re-jailbreak/re-install SAM and complete the process. Thanks in advance guys
-
Worked perfectly. Was using gevey on Iphone 4.
-
Does it work on IOS 4.1? Baseband 02.10 , please help
-
It works for my iphone 4. Just make sure your iphone is connected to a wifi internet, and i method to automatic since i dont know AT&T's "Sim ID". Also i may not restart it self after you are done but u can restart it your self. flip$ide, Ghana, West-Africa
