unlock Iphone Guide

I hope this guide will help people to unlock their Apple Iphone. It’s not super detailed but if you have any questions just post reply and I will try to help as much as possible.

This guide will not work for Iphones with bootloader 4.6 (4th and 5th digit of S/N gives weeknumber, if this is 45 or above youre 99% likely to have bootloader 4.6)

You can unlock all versions with this guide. Also updated 1.1.2.

This guide uses WIFI, if you don’t have WIFI connection, this guide will not help you.

This guide will also not work for already unlocked iphones which have bad updated to 1.1.2. You have to viriginize your Iphone before proceeding. If you need help about that, post reply.

During whole process new simcard must be inserted

Programs can be found here: http://rapidshare.com/files/77051670...en15_.rar.html

It does not contain firmware 1.1.2 or 1.1.1 because it’s too big. You can search on web for that.

1.
Update with Itunes to 1.1.2. Just connect to Itunes and say yes to update. With this update you get new firmware 1.1.2 and new baseband 04.02.13G.

2.
Now that we have the new firmware we have to downgrade to 1.1.1. We have to put the iphone in restore mode. I use program iphoneinterface.exe. It comes with Ibrickr. When opening iphoneinterface.exe type enterrecovery. The iphone goes into restore mode.

3.
Open Itunes, it will say that you need to restore your iphone blab la bla. Hold shift and click restore. Select 1.1.1 firmware. Itunes will fully restore your iphone to 1.1.1 firmware. We still have the new baseband 04.02.13G, that’s good. Itunes will give error 1015, that’s also good. Close Itunes and kill process Ituneshelper.exe (CTR-ALT-DEL).

4.
Open Ibrickr, click on boot the phone. The phone is now working with firmware 1.1.1. Close Ibrickr

5.
Jailbreak the phone with this guide: http://www.hacktheiphone.com/111/iphone_step_1.html.
When you have an active springscreen go back to this guide.

Go to installer again and install Oktoprep
Don’t reboot after installing Oktoprep
Open Itunes
Click help and check for updates
Choose 1.1.2 firmware
After finishing close Itunes and kill ItunesHelper.exe again

10.

After that the iphone will reboot a couple of times, that’s normal
