Jailbreaking an iphone allow users to gain root access to the device, as well as to install unauthorized applications. You might not know that apple has a stringent app store policy, and that it routinely rejects apps for a number of reasons, including smuttiness and other 'content issues.' Jailbreak iPhone will let you download your authorized content from cydia, which is the jailbroken equivalent of the app store.

Want to unlock an iPhone 4S, help please I am being given an iPhone 4S which is locked to a network, and this network is not one that I am on. How can I go about this, I'd rather unlock it myself than let the carrier do it for a huge fee. Jul 28, 2020 This website will allow you to unlock your iPhone SIM card permanently. It can work with iPhone models such as iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 6S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5C, iPhone 5S, iPhone 4, and iPhone 4S. It can unlock iPhone devices coming from AT&T, Sprint, Xfinity, T-Mobile, and also Verizon.

To Jailbreak iOS 5 device, you'll be using the redsnow jailbreak tool from the iphone dev-team. Download either redsn0w 0.9.9b6 for windows or redsn0w 0.9.9b6 for Mac. Double-click on redsn0w to open it. A window will show two options: jailbreak and extras. Choose jailbreak. Make sure your device is plugged in, and turn it off (if it isn't plugged in, plug in first and then turn it off). Then, click the next button. Be ready, as you'll be prompted to hold down a series of buttons quickly in order to enter device firmware update (DFU) mode. Redsn0w will walk you through this, but just so you're prepared, the series is as follows: –

1. Hold down the power (upper-right) button for approximately 5 seconds.

2. Keep holding the power button and hold down the home button at the same time for 10 seconds.

3. Release the power button but keep holding the home button for about 10 seconds. Once your phone is jailbroken (don't unplug it yet!) Redsn0w will ask you to ‘select your options.'

Make sure install cydia is checked, and click next (As mentioned earlier, cydia is the jailbroken equivalent of the app store). You'll see some stuff flash across your iOS device's screen, and then your device will reboot in a jailbroken state. Now your iOS device is jailbroken, and you can reboot it only while it is tethered to your computer. If you reboot untethered, cydia and safari may crash. To accomplish this, connect your device to your computer and open redsn0w. Click extras and then just boot. The program will prompt you to enter DFU mode, and then your device will reboot. That's it – Your iOS 5 device is now jailbroken.

There are also ways of unlocking an iPhone yourself, for free. However, as you may expect, these aren't always the most legitimate of methods. We've recently come across a rather easy way of unlocking an iPhone 4 or 4S if you've got your phone jailbroken already.

The process of jailbreaking your iPhone allows you to install software that Apple wouldn't allow, and if for any reason your phone has to go back to Apple and still has jailbroken software on it, your warranty will be invalid. That said, if you can restore your phone first, the jailbreak will be gone.

So, to perform this unlock you'll need a jailbroken iPhone 4S, 4 or 3GS. We'd strongly recommend being on iOS 5 as this version has a complete (untethered) jailbreak, whereas those using iOS 5.1 can only use a tethered jailbreak. This means that if your phone completely runs out of battery or reboots at any point, you'll need to connect it to your PC via USB and re-jailbreak it each time, so you'll lose your unlock temporarily.

IMPORTANT: Before starting this process, and before you think about jailbreaking your iPhone if you haven't already, know that Gadget Helpline accepts no responsibility for any harm that may come to your phone as a result of either jailbreaking or installing this package. That said, we've been running a jailbroken iPhone for years with no problems – as have thousands of others – and the unlock package has been fully tested and works very well.

Before starting with Step 1, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your PC or Mac. To check for updates click Help at the top of the screen in iTunes followed by Check for Updates.

Step 1

Jailbreaking your phone will add a little brown icon called ‘Cydia'. This is a jailbroken app store. You'll need to open this app and tap ‘Manage' at the bottom followed by ‘Sources' and then ‘Edit' in the top right corner. Tap ‘Add' and then type ‘repo.bingner.com' and tap ‘Add Source'.

Step 2

Tap Search in the bottom right corner and search for ‘SAM'. You should find at the top of the list a package called ‘SAM' with the description ‘Subscriber Artificial Module…' Select SAM then tap ‘Install' followed by ‘Confirm' in the top right corner. You'll see a black screen with a bunch of white text scrolling down for about 30 seconds. Once you see ‘Restart Springboard' simply tap it and wait for your phone to reboot itself.

Step 3

Open Settings on your phone and scroll down to SAM. Tap Utilities followed by De-Activate iPhone, and tap OK on the prompt to continue. Tap SAM in the top left to go back.

Tap Method and then select By Country and Carrier. Tap SAM in the top left to go back, now tap Carrier and select your network.

Tap SAM in the top left to go back. Tap Method and change it to Manual.
