This is the safest, simplest and most secure solution to unlock
your iPhone.
This universal solution is the only product which allows you to unlock all releases of the Phone, including European and North American version 1.1.2 Phones. The FreeMePhone NextSim Card unlock iphone has been tested with
UK and German iPhones.
This solution
requires no modification of the firmware of your phone. This makes
it the safest way to unlock your iPhone.
Requirements:
- You will
need an active WiFi connection for your iPhone to perform this
procedure.
- You will
need iTunes 7.5 (Download
Here)
Steps:
1.Download
the iPhone 1.1.1 firmware/software package HERE,
and after it is downloaded, make sure it still has the extension
.ipsw and not .zip. Rename it if necessary (the correct name is
iPhone1,1_1.1.1_3A109a_Restore.ipsw). Also download
the latest iPhone1,1_1.1.2_3b_Restore.ipsw HERE
we will need it since the instructions for jailbreak (unlock iphone) have been
changed on step 25
2.Launch
iTunes if it isn’t open.
3.Put
iPhone in recovery mode (hold the sleep and home [on the top of
the iPhone] buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank,
then release the sleep button but keep holding the home button
until you receive a message in iTunes stating “iTunes has
detected an iPhone in recovery mode”
4.Do
not restore the iPhone at this point
5.In
iTunes, select your iPhone from the left-hand pane (source list)
and click the “Summary” tab. If you are using a Mac,
Hold down the OPTION key then click “Restore.” If
you are on a Windows system, Hold down the SHIFT key then click
“Restore.” Select the 1.1.1 package you just downloaded.
You’ll receive the error message “1015? indicating
a failure to restore — this is normal.
6.Download
the iTunes 1.1.2 jailbreak folder from Conceited Software.
7.If
you are using a Mac, double-click jailbreak.jar in the file you
just downloaded. If you are on a Windows system, double-click
the file windows.bat. Click the “Boot from Recovery”
button. This should force the iPhone out of recovery mode.
8.This
process can take several minutes or can be instant. In some cases,
the phone will automatically reboot and go to the “Activate
iPhone” screen. In other cases, the progress bar never finishes,
but the proper process occurs, and the iPhone screen goes completely
black with the device powering off. At this point, you might need
to hold down the power button for several seconds until the device
restarts. If 10 or minutes have gone by and nothing has happened
(the recovery mode screen, with an iTunes icon and a USB cable,
is still displayed on your iPhone), try disconnecting your iPhone
and reconnecting it and trying again, or restart your computer
and trying again.
9.Launch
iTunes if it is not open. You will no see the “Waiting for
Activation” screen, but your iPhone won’t activate.
10.Take
your iPhone out of your cradle and you need to make sure you have
the sim card that you got with the phone in the device.
11.Slide
to make emergency call. Press “*#307#”. It will start
ringing.
12.Clear
all the numbers by pressing “x”. Enter “0?,
press “call”, than press “answer”.
13.Press
“Hold”, than it will ring again. Press “Decline”.
It will show you the contact list.

14.Add
a new contact. Choose to “add new URL”. Enter “prefs:”.
Add one more home url, this time enter “jailbreakme.com”.
Save all the informations.

15.Click
the “home page”, it will pop up the settings now.
Connect to the Wi-Fi connections that you wish for. (same IP range
with notebook computer. how to do it? Just make sure iPhone and
notebook are connected with same Wi-Fi AP station.). Also, make
sure it will not go to sleep mode by going into General > Auto
Lock > Never.
16.Press
home button to go back to the “activate iPhone” screen.
Slide for emergency, and press “0? to call. Answer the call
than hold the call. It will ring again. Than, press decline and
you will go back to contact list.
17.Select
the contact we created in Step 8. This time, press the home that
is “http://jailbreakme.com” to let the Safari open
it. Scroll down and choose to install the AppSnapp.

18.Your
Safari will crash and go back to the “Activate iPhone”
screen. Do not touch the iPhone or any other buttons now.
19.Once
this has done it will reboot itself twice and instead of saying
slide for emergency it will say slide to unlock which means we
have bypassed the activation.
20.At
the end of the process, your iPhone will be jailbroken under firmware
version 1.1.1, but you won’t have access to voice services
yet.
21.Slide
to unlock your iPhone. You will see the “Installer”
icon on your home screen. Tap it.
22.Tap
“Install” at the bottom of the screen, then tap “Tweaks
1.1.1?
23.Scroll
down to a package called “OktoPrep” and tap it, then
tap the “Install” button in the upper-right corner.
24.In iTunes, select your iPhone from the source lift on the left-hand
side. If it prompts you to restore your iPhone from backup, you
can do so (by pressing the “Continue” button), after
which your iPhone will reboot and again try (and fail) to activate.
25. Prior to the update the tutorials required you to click the
update button to install 1.1.2 on your iPhone. Now since 1.1.3
has been released simply clicking update will NOT work. You have
to option/shift click the update button and select 1.1.2 ipsw
file directly
the
dialog window will appear asking you to select the firmware to
restore to. Select the 1.1.2 firmware we downloaded earlier (iPhone1,1_1.1.2_3B48b_Restore.ipsw).Once
complete a dialog box will appear letting you know you have updated
successfully.
26.
[At the end of the process, you might see an error message indicating
that the iPhone could not TO berestored because of an “Error
1602? or similar. If so, follow the instructions in this Knowledge
Base article to re-install iTunes. You then, unfortunately, have
to start the process all over again.] 27.
27.After the installation of firmware 1.1.2, Installer will vanish
from your iPhone — this is normal.
28. Go back to the folder you downloaded from Conceited Software
and again run the jailbreak.jar file on a Mac or the windows.bat
file on a Windows system. This time, check the “Install
SSH option” then press the “Jailbreak” button.
This process takes several minutes — do not perform any
other operations on your iPhone during this process.

29.Your
iPhone will reboot several times. Don’t press any buttons
on the device until you’re done The Installer application
should now be on your screen and the iPhone should properly activate.
