Ultrasnow 0.93 iOS 4 Unlock All Baseband

by on

Got yourself an iPhone 3G or 3GS that’s carrier-locked but want to unlock it to be able to use any SIM card with it? Ultrasn0w 0.93 is now available that lets you do just that, on almost all baseband versions on iPhone 3G or 3GS. For more information and the complete guide, read on after the jump.

Carriers locking devices to their own SIM cards isn’t an uncommon practice and still continues, to make you stick with them because your device will not operate with the SIM card of any other carrier. There are lots of scenarios when one might need to do it though. Whether you are simply tired of your old carrier and want to try a new one out, or you bought a used phone and found out it was locked, or got one as a gift, or are travelling abroad and want to use a local carrier there rather than paying huge roaming charges, the iPhone Dev-Team has you covered with the latest release of Ultrasn0w.

This new version of ultrasn0w 0.93 is now easily downloadable through Cydia and unlocks your iPhone 3G/3GS for  following basebands:

  • 04.26.08
  • 05.11.07
  • 05.12.01
  • 05.13.04

As these are the baseband versions found on a majority of iPhone 3G and 3GS devices, this covers almost all devices out there, with perhaps a few odd exceptions. If you have your iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS with any of the above mentioned basebands, just follow the step wise procedure listed below and you’ll unlock your phone in no time.

Requirements:


First of all, please do NOT continue if by any chance your baseband version does not match one of the four shown above.

In order to make iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS ultrasn0w unlock work, you will be needing a jailbroken iPhone 3G or 3GS running iOS 4 so if you haven’t done it yet, jailbreak it now before proceeding. You can find instructions for it by searching AddictiveTips with your phone model, firmware version and baseband version.

Also, please make sure that before installation, you have your 3G network powered off especially if you are a T-Mobile subscriber.

Procedure:

  1. Start Cydia on your iPhone 3G /3GS and go to the ‘Manage’ tab.
  2. Tap ‘Sources’ and then tap ‘Edit’, followed by ‘Add’.
  3. Now type the following repo in the URL field : http://repo666.ultraSn0w.com
  4. Next, search for ultrasn0w 0.93 using Cydia search bar. Once located, install by tapping the ‘Install’ button on the top left corner of the display.

Once Ultrasn0w has installed successfuly, your iPhone 3G or 3GS has been unlocked, and you can now use it with a carrier of your choice just by changing the SIM card.

    • http://www.limera1n.com/ clepmister@Hotmail.c

      i have an iphone 3gs, and i jailbroke it with limera1n http://www.limera1n.com/ the only problem i had was that i couldn’t unlock it because ultrasnow doesn’t support 5.14.02 baseband. Fuzzyband which downgrades your iphones baseband doesn’t work if your bootloader is above 5.08. which at this point i have no clue what to do to unlock it. I am hoping ultrasnow’s repo in cydia will update so that the iphones on iOS 4.1 will be able to unlock it there

    Hi Guys, I have iPhone 3GS which is currently locked all networks in the UK, is on 3.1.3 firmware, baseband 05.12.01 and is on the new bootroom. I know it can be probably jailbroken with Spirit, but i heard if its jailbroken with Spirit, it will not unlock using ultraSnow 0.93 using the above method, is this correct? Thanks for any reply.

    Thanks in advanced.

  • TinA

    I’m using iPhone IOS4 3GS with the baseband 05.13.04 in Australia. I did everything above says and after I install it it says “could not activate cellular data network”!!! Also, it’s not 0.93 , it’s 1.0-1 but then the description says, “iPhone Dev Team’s iPhone 4, 3G and 3GS software unlock…” So that sound right.

    Someone help me, please! I don’t know what I did wrong.

  • Nicole

    Please help! I was on Ultrasn0w .92 and upgraded to Ultrasn0w 1.0-1 and now I have No Service! I need to go back down to Ultrasn0w .93, but whenever I try to connect to the repo666.ultrasn0w.com/ repo, it gives me a “HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found” error. Please, someone help!!!

  • Chris

    SUCCESS…!!!!!

    iPhone 3GS, new bootrom (MC), IOS 4.0.1, Baseband 5.13.04.

    Before I was on Baseband 5.12.01, IOS 3.1.3 on new bootrom, I installed Ultrasn0w then and had no problems but since upgrading to IOS 4 or IOS 4.0.1, Ultrasn0w would not work for me.

    After countless restore’s and through trial and error, my 3gs on IOS 4.0.1 is now Jailbroken and unlocked.

    Here is what I did…….

    After restored phone on either IOS 4 or IOS 4.0.1, NOT IOS 4.0.2 because this will stop your iPhone from jailbreaking, when asked in iTunes to update carrier settings, select no. Setup iPhone on iTunes as a new phone.

    Jailbreak your iPhone by going to http://www.jailbreakme.com using the Safari browser on your iPhone and slide the slider across to jailbreak.

    Once Cydia is up, open it and let it update fully, I chose User Mode when asked and then clicked to completely update Cydia.

    Still in Cydia, install SBSettings from BigBoss repo, this will install additional programs needed, one is Mobile Substrate. I couldnt find Mobile Substrate to install on its own so installing SBSettings installs Mobile Substrate and SBSetting is useful for later on.

    Then install afc2add from ModMyI repo. If this source is not already installed by Cydia then go to Sources and add http://apt.modmyi.com. I have read of other help sites this is needed for Ultrasn0w to work. When jailbreaking on 3G and 3GS on 3+ IOS firmwares, most jailbreaking methods involved installing this afc2add program. This is not installed when jailbreaking the IOS 4+ firmware through http://www.jailbreakme.com and needs to be installed through Cydia.

    If the above repo for Ultrasn0w is not already in Cydia, then add http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com to your sources and install.

    Reboot iPhone twice.

    Then take out the sim card your iPhone is locked to. Open SBSettings and put your iPhone into flight mode, insert your chosen network and wait about 10 seconds, searching will be displayed in the top left of your display. Now put your iPhone out of flight mode and wait. Searching will still be displayed, for me it then displayed ‘No sim’. Still keep waiting and let Ultrasn0w do its job as this is when it is working to allow your chosen sim to work. Eventually your carrier will be displayed in the top left hand corner and the process is complete.

    Remember to wait, and wait some more, even is no sim comes up, still wait and your chosen sim card will work.

    This is what I did and I hope it helps others.

      Hi Chris, thanks for the detail explaination.

  • Gerry

    Can I use jailbreak on my 3Gs running latest 4.0.2 with baseband 05.13.02-thanks in advance.

    • Gerry

      correction to above baseband is 5.13.04.

      • Chris

        You can only jailbreak your device on IOS 4 or IOS 4.0.1. If you have upgraded to IOS 4.0.2 then you need to downgrade to one of the above mentioned IOS’s.

        Not sure if you can still unlock on IOS 4.0.2 but the baseband is that of IOS 4+ so no problems there

  • Yestee

    Hey guys,

    i use a iphone 3g , 3.1.3 which is stuck with that s*** hole 5.12.01 baseband .. waiting for the unlock for past 4 months … i read the above post saying to unlock using ultrasnow 0.93 or 1.0 , but my cydia doesnot show that thing in my search list , rather i see a 0.92 version of it ..

    Help me !

    • Chris

      Yestee……if you delete your Ultrasn0w source and then re-add it, you will have the latest version and you should be able to unlock your 3G version on your basband.

      Hope this helps

  • zed

  • 10nis

    I jailbroke my 3gs iso4.0.1 running on 05.13.04 and tried installing ultrasnow through cydia, but I can’t I get an error saying size mismatch. Tried deleting ultrasnow and adding back on in sources and then installing again but still doesnt work. What does size mismatch mean and how do I get rid of it?

    • Channel_News

      Guys,

      In case you are getting an error ” Size mismatch error ” while installing Ultrasnow on your iphone , please follow the below instructions

      1. Check the Wi Fi network security settings of your Home Wi Fi Router
      ( you will have to do this by using the software provided along with the router on your PC )
      2. The security settings may be set on 100% , complete or total security which will not allow your iphone to access ultrasnow site
      3. Change the settings to minimun or nil or remove the same

      now try again , your iphone should be able to install ultrasnow

      dont forget to change the Wi Fi router settings after your job is done

      worked for me

  • John

    I have just jail broken my 3Gs with Limera1n.
    I have Cydia on my screen. But I cannot install Ultrasn0w. My phone is locked to a US carrier, so my 3G sim is not showing any bars when I insert it into the 3Gs. Perhaps that’s why I can’t install the Ultrasn0w? Any ideas. I’m using the Unlock Phone U.S. service.
