Unlock any iPhone with SAM new trick released try this works or not .

[jamesjerss]

According to chinese iPhone hacker Loktar_Sun, you can unlock any jailbroken iPhone with SAM. Here are some detailed step by step unlock iPhone will help you (Since it does not involve emergency numbers or IMSI spoofing it will not have any of the issues associated with SIM interposers, tested working on iOS 5.01 but should work with tethered 5.1 too).
What do you need: A jailbroken iPhone that can be activated in iTunes (that is, not officially blacklisted), a computer with the latest iTunes installed and working internet connection. You will also need to know the carrier that your iPhone is locked to.

Step 1. Install Sam Bingner’s SAM (Subscriber Artificial Module) package. I recommend that you get it from repo.bingner.com since older versions have a different interface and may not work for this purpose.

Step 2. Enter SAM by either going through the settings menu or find the SAMPrefs icon on your springboard. You will need to have the SIM card you intend to use in your phone.

Step 3. Go to utilities and select “De-Activate iPhone”, your ActivationState under “More Information” should now be “Unactivated”

Step 4. With SAM enabled, choose “By Country and Carrier” in “Method”; find your carrier, for some carriers operating more than one Carrier ID you may need to select “SIM ID”; easy to tell since iTunes will not activate if the wrong IMSI is selected.

Step 5. Go to More Information”, copy or write down the IMSI in “SAM Details”, then tap “Spoof Real SIM to SAM”.

Step 6. Go back to the main SAM screen and change your “Method” to manual. Paste or enter the IMSI string we saved in Step 5.

Step 7. Connect your iPhone to your computer and allow iTunes to do its job (namely re-activating your phone), double click “Phone Number” parameter at the main device screen and make sure that the ICCID matches that of your SIM card. If not you need to start over from Step 1.




Step 8. Unplug your phone, close iTunes.

Step 9. Disable SAM. The source article says to uninstall SAM and delete your lockdownd folders; it’s unnecessary.

Step 10. Connect your phone to iTunes again, you should get an error saying that your phone cannot be activated. This is normal. Just close iTunes and open it again.

Step 11. You should see signal bars in a short time, congratulations.

Step 12. Push notifications may stop working after this procedure but can be easily restored with “clear push” utility in SAM followed by connecting to iTunes.

Your phone will work normally with your SIM card and that SIM card ONLY since we have tricked iTunes to think that ICCID is one of the intended carrier’s. The phone can be rebooted and connected to iTunes freely without losing the “unlock”, at least for now.

Backup Your iPhone’s Unlock Activation Ticket The Easy Way Using Redsn0w

Weekends are usually slow with regards to tech news, but those interested in unlocking their iPhones have been pleasantly surprised with the revelation that all basebands and firmware versions can be carrier unlocked – provided of course that said device is jailbroken.

As you might expect, the bingner Cydia repo facilitating the method has been almost ground to a halt by those looking for an unlock. The significance of the SAM unlock cannot be underestimated, and with users seemingly prepared to pay hundreds for a permanent solution through CutYourSim, nobody could have foreseen such a simple, effective (and free) method releasing to the public in this manner.

Indeed, basebands and firmware versions are often mitigating factors of whether a device can be unlocked, but thanks to the work of Loktar_Sun and Sam Bingner, iPhone users have been well and truly blessed today. A good day for the Cydia-based community is never complete without some intervention from the iPhone-Dev Team, though, and the team has released an update to its Redsn0w jailbreaking tool allowing users of the SAM unlock tool to back up their activation tickets for safekeeping.




As per the tutorial detailing the steps of the SAM unlock, users were required to manually backup activation tickets, but in this one-click culture, Redsn0w has made things even easier. Now at version 0.9.10b8, which is linked to at the bottom of this post, it houses the ability to backup arbitrary directories or files into a zip file on your Mac or PC.

Here’s the short, simple, three step guide to help you along the way:

Step 1: Make sure your device has the afc2 service enabled. Most jailbreaks cater to it, but if not, you can grab it from the ModMyi repository in Cydia.

Step 2: In the new Redsn0w, navigate through Extras > Even More > Backup



Step 3: That’s pretty much it. By default, Redsn0w will backup your activation records from /var/root/Library/Lockdown, and without going into too much detail, it leaves your device’s future unlock status in good stead.

The iPhone Dev Team has promised to comment on the SAM unlock, and in jailbreak terms, it’s almost like waiting for an official press release! We’ll be sure to reveal all once that info does surface, so stay tuned here at Redmond Pie!

NOTE: Be really sure that the IMSI number is the one of the carrier that your iphone is locked to. Because if is not, you'll get the error message that you need de original SIMID and all that stuff.
