iPhone 4 baseband unlock not supported

ultrasn0w to unlock iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G only finally got working fully on 4.2.1, so it looks that everything over there going alright, everything on schedule, which means that we will catch new version of ultrasn0w tomorrow as we mentioned before.

Musclenerd: Finally got ultrasn0w working fully on 4.2.1. Apple inadvertently(!) broke ultrasn0w via aggressive compiler optimization

Till know there's no news about iPhone 4 baseband unlock. For now we let you know immediately after the release of the new ultrasn0w, stay tuned.

users who don't rely on unlock, you can follow the same guide but with redsn0w 0.9.6b4 to jailbreak their devices on iOS 4.2.1, see guide Posted Here.

[skagman]

Thanks for reply but already tried to restore to 4.1 and all's it did was restore what media and settings was on the phone beforehand but stayed on 4.2.1!

I read somewhere that i needed to save the 4.1 in cydia before updating to 4.2 using sshblobs or watever in order to revert back.

Id updated to 4.2 before realizing it was bad to do if i wanted to unlock it!

Is there any other way of going back to 4.1?

thanks

First step-put iphone in dfu with redsnow and after that iPhone restore iOS 4.1 with itunes

hello everybody

I´ve got a simple problem, in my country I have an internet conection too slow, therefore I can´t do the baseband´s update to the version 06.15, cause the redsnow needs to conect to internet to do this process.

the question is the following:
does the redsn0w have any other way to do this process if I had an iPad's firmware???

[JAMESVICTOR]

where can i get the download links for the apps needed?
