Earlier this week we told you that The famous Dev Team member known as @MuscleNerd had made some really good progress on an iPhone 3G / 3GS baseband 06.15.00 downgrading solution.
It was a number of big news simply because the iOS 4.1 and iOS 4.2.1 firmware people who upgraded to the present specific iPad baseband to get their iPhones unlocked.
All those users are already stuck on it, without any way to downgrade their iPhone 3g / 3GS to a normal iPhone baseband. As there have been several problems being gone through by people immediately after upgrading, for example — loss of their GPS functionality, it's no doubt a baseband downgrading solution continues to be on their thoughts for a long period.

A few hours ago I wrote you a guide on how to preserve iPhone old baseband updating to iOS 5.1.1. It is very important when you want to keep your unlocking baseband alive.

I’ve already shown you how to preserve iPhone 4 and 3GS baseband. And now I’ll show you how to unlock iPhone 4 after update.

The iPhone Dev-Team has updated RedSn0w with the ability to save iPhone unlock tickets.

redsn0w 0.9.10b8 adds the ability to backup arbitrary directories or files from your device into a zip file on your Mac or PC. The new button is Extras->Even More->Backup and it requires your device to be jailbroken with the afc2 service enabled (most jailbreaks include that). By default it will backup your activation records from /var/root/Library/Lockdown, which is useful for everyone taking advantage of today's SAM unlock using Loktar_Sun's trick

A Chinese hacker Loktar_Sun, who discovered vulnerability in ICCID was able to unlock iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S using SAM (Subscriber Artificial Module). The method posted by him successfully unlocks iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S on all basebands. Those who have been obsecrating for 04.11.08 iPhone 4 Unlock, this is certainly a welcome news.

Requirements:

• Jailbroken iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, or iPhone 3GS that can be activated in iTunes (that is, not officially blacklisted) on iOS 5.0 and above.
• The latest iTunes software installed on your computer with internet connected.
• You must know the carrier that your iPhone is locked to.

The method to unlock iPhone is a bit cumbersome for rookies, but SAM (Subscriber Artificial Module) developer Sam Bingner has confirmed to release a SAM update that would make the process much simpler and easier to follow.

On Twitter, Sheriff Hashim, a prominent member of the Dev Team that focuses on baseband and unlock, has confirmed that the release of all iPhone iOS 4 upgraded to 4.1 or 4.2.1 will be made public by the middle of January 2011.

They took an exploit that was closed by Apple in the iPhone baseband, but still active in the iPad 3G baseband; they also tweaked redsn0w , and by using the latest release , basically you transfer the iPad’s baseband ( version 06.15.00 ) into your iPhone – baseband which can be unlocked.

Today we’re pleased to announce our free carrier unlock for iPhone3G/3GS owners with a baseband later than 05.13.04.  The unlock for that baseband exploited the AT+XAPP command, thanks to a crash initially discovered by @sherif_hashim (@Oranav also found this crash).  So what hole are we exploiting today, since Apple closed that AT+XAPP hole?  Well, we’re exploiting the exact same hole!

MuscleNerd of the iPhone Dev Team has just tweeted that Ultrasn0w unlock is on it’s way and you’ll be free at last. The unlock for iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS on baseband 05.14.02 (iOS 4.1) and baseband 05.15.04 (iOS 4.2.1) will be released this Sunday.
