This is not very surprising at all because that’s how Apple works. As long as there’s a new unlocking method, Apple will find a way to stop it. While this is usually done through software and baseband update, Apple might also do drastic measures such as replacing the hardware.

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.
