Restore iPhone 3GS, 3G to iOS 4.2.1 / 4.1 on 06.15.00 Baseband After Using Ultrasn0w 1.2 [How to Guide]

In case you have unlocked your iPhone 3GS / 3G by flashing iPad baseband 6.15.00 with ultrasn0w 1.2 on iOS 4.2.1, and have issues while restoring your device, here is Sherif Hashim the guy behind ultrasn0w unlock tool, has posted a simple guide showing how to restore your iPhone 3GS / 3G to avoid iTunes errors.
Note: To restore your iPhone 3GS from 4.2.1 to 4.1, you must have saved SHSH blobs for iOS 4.1.

For PwnageTool users:
A :  If you are on Mac and use PwnageTool: If you used pwnage tool then you will have to create a “new” custom 4.1 or 4.2.1 and say “No” when you are offered the BB update to 6.15.00 since you already have it, then build the custom ipsw and restore to that.
For Redsn0w users:
B : If you use(d) Redsn0w:

B.1: If you are currently on 4.1, then you can restore to official 4.1 again, and when you see error 1015 pop-up, you kick your device out of recovery mode using TinyUmbrella, use redsn0w and don’t check “ipad BB update” because you already have that Here Is How To Restore iPhone 3G And iPhone 3GS While On Baseband 06.15.00 And Having Issues icon smile

B.2: If you are currently on 4.2.1 then you’ll have to restore back to 4.1 (because 4.2.1 will not allow you to kick the phone out of recovery when 1015 occurs due to the silly BB / iOS mismatch check added there) , then do the same steps as CASE-1.
How to go again to iOS 4.2.1:
If you want to go again to 4.2.1 your only way is to use a custom 4.2.1 done by pwnage tool in the same steps mentioned in A .
Try Hashim's methods above to restore you device between 4.2.1 and 4.1, it worth trying. Don't forget to tell us about your experience.

Greenpois0n Untethered Jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 on All iDevices on Its Way

Few minutes ago p0sixninja the hacker behind Greenpois0n jailbreak has just announced that the new version of Greenpois0n is being updated to be untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 on iPhone 4,3GS iPod touch 4G, 3G and iPad, but the untethered task has caused a delay in releasing the new Greenpois0n.
I apologize for the delay in greenpois0n 4.2.1 support. Our current focus is on a permanent untether solution
Till now there is no ETA (estimate to arrival) for the new Greenpois0n. By the way Comex is also developing a new method to make untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 on all devices and it's expected to see the light on Christmas.

HOW TO: Activate iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G Without Original SIM or Hacktivation with SAM & Redsn0w 0.9.6b6

Few minutes ago, a new mix-up between iPhone dev-team and sbingner, has been done to allow you to activate your iPhone 4, 3GS and 3G without using original SIM or Hactivation. Thanks to sbingner's new tool which called SAM (Subscriber Artificial Module) and redsn0w 0.9.6b6. Moreover this mix-up has fixed the battery consuming after unlocking iPhone 3GS/3G with ultrasn0w 1.2. Let's check out how use this package after the jump.
STEP 1: Download Redsn0w 0.9.6b6 for Windows and Mac, (Links at the end)

STEP 2: For iPhone 3GS/3G users follow our previous guide posted here, for other devices follow this guide, (But be sure you are using Redsn0w 0.9.6b6)

STEP 3: After you finish jailbreaking your device, start Cydia and add http://repo.bingner.com repository.
STEP 4: Then install “SAM” and “SAMPrefs”.

STEP 5: Launch Redsn0w 0.9.6b6 again, and select “Deactivate” option.
STEP 6: Navigate to Settings > SAM and click "De-Activate iPhone"

STEP 7: Connect your iPhone to your PC then launch iTunes, allow iTunes to activate your iPhone officially. You will see this message "iPhone is activated"

According to sbingner : If iTunes says invalid SIM, you will need to manually select the appropriate carrier under one of the methods besides "Automatic" and click on a SIMID.

Download Redsn0w 0.9.6b6 to Activate iPhone 3GS / 3G and Fix Battery Drain after Ultrasn0w 1.2

iPhone Dev-Team has just released redsn0w 0.9.6b6 (Windows and Mac) to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 on iPhone 3GS/3G and update their basebands to iPad baseband 6.15.00, as most of you know that redsn0w 0.9.6b5 did that, but the new version of redsn0w 0.9.6b6 brings activation without hacktivating, or using original SIM card and increases battery life substantially, as we reported earlier, it was the most prevalent problem after unlocking iPhone 3GS/3G with ultrasn0w 1.2
Developer @sbingner (author of TetherMe) has made some excellent progress devising a new hactivation method that kills two birds with one stone for all you ultrasn0w unlockers.  His tool, “Subscriber Artificial Module (SAM)” tricks your iPhone and iTunes into creating legitimate activation tickets even though you’re unlocked with ultrasn0w.  This means you get the full benefit of push applications, and your battery life increases substantially.  If you’d like to try it out, check out http://www.bingner.com/SAM.html
To help make it easier to try out @sbingner’s tool, we’ve updated redsn0w to include a new “Deactivate” option for the 3G and 3GS.  Use this option *after* you’ve installed SAM…it will remove the normal patches made to lockdownd and let SAM take over.  (sbingner plans on making a button to do this within SAMPrefs too).  Great work, @sbingner!
Thanks @sbingner for the hard work, as usual we will prepare the full step by step guide, showing you how to use SAM and the newly redsn0w 0.9.6b6. Stay tuned.

UPDATE: Here is the step by step guide showing how to Activate iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G Without Original SIM or Hacktivation with SAM & Redsn0w 0.9.6b6 Click Here.

HOW TO: Fix iPhone 3GS / 3G Battery Drain Problem & Over Heat After Unlocking With Ultrasn0w 1.2

The newly released ultrasn0w 1.2 which unlocked the iPhone 3GS/3G running iOS 4.2.1 by flashing the iPad baseband 06.15.00 using Redsn0w 0.9.6b5 or PwnageTool 4.1.3, has caused two major issues for many iPhone 3GS/3G users, ultrasn0w 1.2 has led to aggressive battery drainage, in addition, iPhone becoming excessively hot. Sherif Hashim, one of the hackers behind ultrasn0w has addressed these issues, let's check out them after the jump.
Here's Hashim justifying these issues
i hope those of u with 3g/3gs are enjoying their updated unlocked devices, all props to @MuscleNerd & co. for making this possible :) , hopefully the iphone 4 on 2.10.04 and 3.10.01 follows within a good time table.

on a very important side note, before anyone starts to complain about battery drainage issues after installing the new ultrasn0w on the 6.15.00 updated BB, the culprit here is not ultrasn0w, it's the hacktivation process (activating the phone by pwnage tool or redsn0w rather than using an official carrier sim to do so) that u mostly did while jailbreaking.

The 4.1 and 4.2.1 ipsws unlike their old ancestors, seem to keep looking for valid push certificates all the time, either thru your wifi, or thru your cellular data network (which u only have after installing ultrasn0w and hence u accuse it) , this can be seen clearly if u have a cellular working data plan for 3g or edge and u watched the settings > general > usage > cellular network data (sent & received are continuously increasing even without using any internet traffics on the phone) , this will also render the phone going hot even in stand by mode and also very rapid battery drainage occurs plus consuming ur data if you were not on an unlimited plan.
How can you fix these problems:
so to resolve this, u either:
A) 1st Solution: try to activate the phone using the official sim if u have it (even if the sim itself is old and not working) , or borrow it from a friend if it's possible, by any means, try to have an access to one and use it
B) 2nd Solution: if A is not feasible, u can install SBsettings from featured cydia packages and turn wifi and data off when u r not using it (shuts down both 3g and edge) , till C is done
C) 3rd Solution: there is a very nice module being worked on by a trusted jailbreak app dev, namely @sbingner , which ll resolve that issue for those having it, the details of which shouldn't be disclosed until he finishes his awesome work, till then, either use A or B to resolve the issue if it exists for you
In case you're one of those who suffering from the above mentioned problems after unlocking their devices with ultrasn0w 1.2, you have to try the above solutions as they will handle the situation, but don't forget to feed us back with your results on the comments section.

HOW TO: Update / Unlock iPhone 3GS / 3G Baseband 06.15.00 with Redsn0w 0.9.6b5 on iOS 4.2.1 / 4.1 [Windows & Mac]

Well, here's the iPhone Dev-Team has just released redsn0w 0.9.6b5 to jailbreak iPhone 3GS and 3G on iOS 4.2.1 and update baseband to 06.15.00 which can be unlocked with the newly released ultrasn0w 1.2, the redsn0w 0.9.6b5 is available for both windows and mac users.
The new redsn0w 0.9.6beta5 is out. It gives both Windows and OSX users the ability to flash the iPad 06.15 baseband on iPhone3G or iPhone3GS. It fetches the baseband files directly from Apple for now (the only IPSW you ever point it at is the stock IPSW for the FW on your iPhone right now). There may be a long delay while it’s doing this (their servers are currently getting pounded).

WARNING — YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!  PLEASE UNDERSTAND THE CONSEQUENCES OF UPDATING TO 06.15.
  1. There is no way to come back down from 06.15, and there’s no hiding the baseband version from Apple. You’ll be voiding your warranty in a very obvious way.
  2. If some future baseband comes out with a critical fix, you won’t be able to update to it if it remains down in the 05.xx sequence (then again, you wouldn’t update to it if you wanted to keep your unlock anyway).
  3. Starting with FW 4.2.1 if you have 06.15 on your iPhone you won’t ever be able to restore to stock firmware (it will fail).  You’ll need to only restore to custom IPSWs (then again, if you’re unlocker you should already be doing that).
For whom is this Guide:
This version of redsn0w 0.9.6b5 is developed ONLY for iPhone 3GS and 3G users who rely on unlock. Precisely,  This guide showing how to jailbreak and update baseband to 06.15.00 for ONLY iPhone 3GS and 3G who have unlocked devices.

Unsupported devices, what have to do:
iPhone 4 and 3GS 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.

Here's the step by step guide:

STEP 1: Download redsn0w 0.9.6b5,  iOS 4.2.1 for your device(download links at the end).

STEP 2: Update to 4.2.1 firmware using the IPSW file you just downloaded via iTunes 10.1.

STEP 3: Launch Redsn0w 0.9.6b5,  and browse for iOS 4.2.1 firmware final version.
STEP 4: Now you have to select "Install Cydia" and "Install iPad baseband", and then click "Next" (in this step redsn0w will update your baseband to 06.15.00 which works with ultrasn0w 1.2)
STEP 5: Now make sure your device is both OFF and PLUGGED IN to the computer before you click “Next”.
STEP 6: At this stage you will need to put your iPhone in DFU mode by holding “Power” button and then while holding the “Power” button, you will now have to hold “Home” button too. Now after few seconds release “Power” button but keep holding “Home” button until installation begins.
 
STEP 7: You will Get a Jailbroken Device on the latest iOS 4.2.1  and the unlockable baseband 06.15.00

STEP 8: This step is only for these devices iPhone 4, 3GS (New Bootrom), iPod touch 4G,  3G, 2G, iPad. While this is tethered jailbreak and whenever you want to do anything related to jailbreak like SSH your device, or running Cydia, you must first run your device in the so called “jailbroken state” on every reboot by using “Just boot tethered right now” option.

How to unlock iPhone 3GS / 3G on iOS 4.2.1 / 4.1 using ultrasn0w 1.2 :
This is the final step to get your device unlocked on iOS 4.2.1 / 4.1 with the newly release ultrasn0w 1.2, follow our full step by step guide Posted Here.

Download iOS 4.2.1 for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
Download Redsn0w 0.9.6b5 for Windows
Download Redsn0w 0.9.6b5 for Mac
Download iTunes 10.1 for Windows or Mac

HOW TO: Update iPhone 3GS / 3G Baseband to 06.15.00 and Unlock it

Just a couple of hours back, the iPhone Dev Team has updated their carrier unlock tool which brings unlock for iPhone 3GS & 3G on iOS 4.1 or iOS 4.2.1 but unfortunately, you have to update your device's baseband to 06.15.00 to be able to unlock it.


Simply follow the steps below to jailbreak and unlock your iPhone 3G on iOS 4.2.1 using PwnageTool 4.1.3 for Mac OS X.

STEP 1: Download PwnageTool 4.1.3 unlock edition from here.

STEP 2: Download iOS 4.2.1 for your device and also catch iOS 3.2.2 from here before it's removed (required to update the baseband). Then copy all the files to your desktop.

STEP 3: Now launch PwnageTool and select iPhone 3GS / 3G and point it to the original iOS 4.2.1 firmware you downloaded.

STEP 4: You'll now be asked if you want to update your baseband to the 06.15 version. If you are on 05.14 or 05.15 or higher you will need to do this to unlock. You do not need to do this for jailbreak only. Click on YES and then select Browse for IPSW and point it to iOS 3.2.2 you downloaded.
STEP 5: You'll have to choose some options as installing Cydia packages, custom logos and packages. Finally, hit the blue the build button.
STEP 6: You'll be asked to save the cooked firmware. Please allow up to 10 minutes.
STEP 7: When prompted if your iPhone has been Pwned before, we clicked No. It allows for a more thorough restore. Once done, follow the instructions seen on the screen to enter into DFU mode
STEP 8: Now, You will have to restore your iPhone to the jailbroken custom firmware by Clicking on the iPhone icon on the left sidebar of iTunes then hold left “alt” button (“Shift” button on Windows) on the keyboard and then click on “Restore” then release the alt button, Now Select the custom firmware created by PwnageTool and Let iTunes go in a bunch of steps.

STEP 9: Almost done, you can now unlock your iPhone 3GS / 3G by following my previous guide posted here.

Ultrasn0w 1.2 Unlocks iPhone 3GS, 3G on iOS 4.2.1 [How to Guide]

The iPhone Dev Team has just released ultrasn0w 1.2 which brings carrier unlock for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G on iOS 4.2.1 or iOS 4.1.

From the iPhone Dev Team Blog:
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!

It turns out that the very first iPad firmware 3.2.2 has baseband version 06.15.00 still vulnerable to AT+XAPP.  The iPad baseband is built for the exact same baseband chip as the iPhone3G/3GS — they’re fully compatible!  Some of us have been running 06.15 for weeks now on our iPhones in preparation for this release.

Since 06.15 is a higher version than 05.14 or 05.15 (where AT+XAPP is gone), anyone stuck at those versions can simply upgrade to 06.15 to unlock again!  Luckily for us, Apple *still* provides the iPad FW 3.2.2 with this vulnerable baseband right from their own servers. (Grab it now, before they take it down!)
We’ve been busy updating both PwnageTool and redsn0w to make the baseband update as seamless as possible.
  1. First up is “PwnageTool 4.1.3 Unlock Edition”.  It has a special dialog box which will ask you if you want to update to the iPad baseband.  You must already have the iPad 3.2.2 IPSW on your computer (see the above link)….so just point PwnageTool at it (or let it find it on its own if you’re in “simple” mode).
  2. Directly after PwnageTool 4.1.3 is available, the official ultrasn0w repo http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com will be updated with ultrasn0w 1.2, which covers iPhone 4 baseband 01.59.00 and iPhone 3G/3GS basebands 04.26.08, 05.11.07, 05.12.01, 05.13.04 and now 06.15.00.
  3. Finally, we’ll release an update to redsn0w today for those without Macs and can’t run PwnageTool.  The new redsn0w will give you the option to update your baseband to 06.15 too.
WARNING — YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!  PLEASE UNDERSTAND THE CONSEQUENCES OF UPDATING TO 06.15.
  1. There is no way to come back down from 06.15, and there’s no hiding the baseband version from Apple.  You’ll be voiding your warranty in a very obvious way.
  2. If some future baseband comes out with a critical fix, you won’t be able to update to it if it remains down in the 05.xx sequence (then again, you wouldn’t update to it if you wanted to keep your unlock anyway).
  3. Starting with FW 4.2.1 if you have 06.15 on your iPhone you won’t ever be able to restore to stock firmware (it will fail).  You’ll need to only restore to custom IPSWs (then again, if you’re unlocker you should already be doing that).
Certainly don’t update to 06.15 if you don’t need to!  Only do this if you need the unlock and you’re stuck on 05.14 or 05.15, and you’re willing to assume the above risks.

This PwnageTool also contains a 4.2.1 bundle for iPhone3G owners…for all else, it’s still only 4.1.  If you have an iPhone3GS with an old bootrom, the new redsn0w will handle 4.2.1 for you (in fact it covers 4.2.1 for all devices, even though some of them are still tethered at 4.2.1 until @comex can work some untethering magic).  iPhone3GS users with old bootroms who want to go to 4.2.1 should not use this PwnageTool!  Update to stock 4.2.1 first, then use the upcoming redsn0w to update your baseband.

Please feel free to use our comments section for questions.  We have some very knowledgeable and helpful moderators:  angiepangie, Confucious, dhlizard, and Frank55!

Simply follow the instructions posted below to unlock your iPhone 3GS / 3G on iOS 4.2.1. / 4.1 on 05.15.04 and 05.14.02 basebands.

How to: Jailbreak iPhone 3GS / 3G on iOS 4.2.1:
STEP 1: Unlocking requires that your iPhone is jailbroken. Follow our updated guide posted here to use PwnageTool to update your baseband so you can unlock, or follow our guide posted here to use reds0w 0.9.6b5 (Windows & Mac OS X) to do the same as PwnageTool to update baseband to 06.15.00.

How to: Unlock iPhone 3GS / 3G on iOS 4.2.1:
STEP 2: Once you jailbreak yoour device, you can now unlock your iPhone on baseband 06.15.00 using Ultrasn0w 1.2 from Cydia. To do so, follow the steps below:
  • Press to launch Cydia Installer from your SpringBoard.
  • Press to select the Manage tab at the bottom of the screen.
  • Press to select the Sources button

  • Now touch on Edit and then on Add. You will be prompted to enter the URL of the source. Type http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com and touch on Add Source to add this repository. 

  • Once the source has been added press the large Return to Cydia button then select the Done button at the top right of the screen.
  • Now select repo666.ultrasn0w.com from the sources list and at last select ultrasn0w from the list of packages as shown below then install this application.

STEP 3: Almost done, now simply reboot your iPhone and you should have a fully unlocked iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.1 or iOS 4.2.1.

Unfortunately, iPhone 4 unlockers have to wait a bit longer before they can use their device on any carrier they like but at least they had promised to start working on that starting from tomorrow.

  • iPhone 3GS (old bootrom)
  • iPhone 3
  • iPod touch 2G (Non-MC Model)

Tethered Devices:
  • iPhone 3GS (new bootrom)
  • iPhone 4
  • iPad
  • iPod touch 2G (MC Model)
  • iPod touch 3G
  • iPod touch 4G
NOTE: Those of you who rely on a carrier unlock stay away from Redsn0w and iOS 4.2.1.

GUIDE:

STEP 1: Download redsn0w 0.9.6b4,  iOS 4.2.1 for your device(download links at the end).

STEP 2: Update to 4.2.1 firmware using the IPSW file you just downloaded via iTunes 10.1.

STEP 3: Launch Redsn0w 0.9.6b4,  and browse for iOS 4.2.1 firmware final version 

STEP 4: Select "Install Cydia" and click on "Next"
STEP 5: Now make sure your device is both OFF and PLUGGED IN to the computer before you click “Next”.
STEP 6: At this stage you will need to put your iPhone in DFU mode by holding “Power” button and then while holding the “Power” button, you will now have to hold “Home” button too. Now after few seconds release “Power” button but keep holding “Home” button until installation begins.

STEP 7: You will Get a Jailbroken Device on the latest iOS 4.2.1  as soon as the process ends.

STEP 8: This step is only for these devices iPhone 4, 3GS (New Bootrom), iPod touch 4G,  3G, 2G, iPad. While this is tethered jailbreak and whenever you want to do anything related to jailbreak like SSH your device, or running Cydia, you must first run your device in the so called “jailbroken state” on every reboot by using “Just boot tethered right now” option.

Download iOS 4.2.1 (Final version) for your device version.

HOW TO: Enable AirPrint on iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G

As most of you know, AirPrint may be the most interesting feature in the newly released iOS 4.2.1 that allows you to print documents and files directly from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. But not all devices will be able to enjoy this function, so we will show you how to enable AirPrint on non-supported devices as iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G.

STEP 1: Download Redsn0w 0.9.6b3 (Windows - Mac OS X).

STEP 2: Download iOS 4.2.1 original firmware from here.

STEP 3: Connect your device into your computer via USB and launch Redsn0w you download in step 1. Click on browse and point it to the original iOS 4.2.1 firmware of your device and wait while it's recognized.
STEP 4: Now you have to check on Enable Multitasking, other items are optional.
STEP 5: Put your iPhone into DFU mode by following the instructions on the screen:
  • Hold down the Power button for 5 seconds.
  • Without releasing the Power button, also hold Home buttons together for 10 seconds.
  • Now release the Power button but keep holding the Home button for 15 seconds.
STEP 6: Once done, your iPhone will be rebooted and you'll get AirPrint on iPhone 3G ad iPod touch 2G.

From now on, when you open a page in Safari, you'll see the Print button by clicking on the share icon at the bottom. With this option, you can set how many copies of documents you want to copy. You have to select the printer (must be one of the 11 supported printers) and hit Print.
In case your printer is not supported by Apple, you can download and install Printopia to enable AirPrint on non-supported printers. [iPhoneItalia]
