Gabriel: As the guide says, just run it. It doesn’t matter what you pick, it will fail, but will bring your phone back out of restore mode.

Hi.

I’ve just bought one iPhone from States and tried to follow these instructions. After installing 1.1.1, when I’ve run AppTap, it shows me that the options for a firmware are: 1.0.0, 1.0.1 and 1.0.2. Is this ok? Or should I have an option with 1.1.1?

I’ve followed exactly the steps 1,2 and 3.

Many thanks,
Gabriel.

Brutus: If you used your head and actually read my initial reply, you would see I told you that you don’t have to unlock again. anySIM can’t unlock your phone because it is already unlocked.

Hi Brad,

REALLY DESPERATE NOW.

I have diligently followed your instructions up to 4.8 using anySim to unlock. It looks fine but at the end, it says: “Please restart your iPhone. anySIM cannot unlock this phone. anySIM will now quit. Please turn off your phone and turn it on again after anySIM quits.” The anySIM I used was downloaded from the link above and it shows 1.2.1u for 4.02.13G*.

I had checked the modem model prior to doing this and it says 4.02.13G.

What can I do now?

Et tu Brute ?

Sorry for that…

I think The anysim 1.1.2u is the same thing… there was probably some corruption is the entire unzipping and file transferring..

I suggest U restore to 1.1.2 and follow the steps again
and by Zeus’ grace and the lion that lyeth on the capitol

Beware of Anthony tho

Hi Brad,

I had some difficulty locating the Applications folder in the iPhone via the Fetcher. Somehow I was lucky in checking other websites and found that I needed to use Port 22 and start the folder at /.

I was able to then copy the AnySim.app into the Applications folder of the iPhone. I also check if the permission is appropriate which without me doing anything it’s already 755 for the Owner section.

I then tried to activate the phone using AnySim but to my amazement, the slider doesn’t respond. After a few try, I made a bold (not sure it’s wise) assumption that the AnySim1.1.2u in the Installer Application is the same as the one I put into the iPhone earlier. So, I installed the AnySim1.1.2u via the Installer App and it didn’t give me any trouble.

So, I finished 5.4 and then 5.5 but the iPhone now requires me to restore. What should I do? SHould I restore again to 1.1.2?

THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR HELP!

BRUTUS

Brutus: If you read the guide, I linked to the correct version of the MobileDevice framework, but none the less I have updated the guide to use a version of iNdependace that works with iTunes 7.6 to make it easier. In future, read the guide before you post comments.

Thanks Brad. I was able to step 2.5, but as I open the iNdependence.app, it doesn’t support itunes 7.6. Anyway to downgrade my itunes to 7.5 or other suggestions?

Again, many thanks!
