How to Unlock Your iPhone Using SAM [Easier]
Comments

If anyone is having a problem with their code or is looking for a place to get a code to unlock their phone, I would suggest giving www.unlockyoursim.com a go :) It doesn’t cost at all, you just need to complete a short survey (I know, one of those!) but it worked for me so.. it’s worth trying out. Hope this helps!

SAM does not work anymore. Apple has out smarted the "nerds"... for now anyway.

I would like to ask has anyone recently unlock the iphone 4 locked to bell?? I would like to unlock it to "Chatr" in toronto canada. I have followed at the end and everything supposed to happen, happened and stuck at the itunes unlocking step....I have a couple of questions would like to calrify... 1st: I used and paid the service from iphone-unlockme...and the first step that I followed is sent in my IMEI ID and I received a message stating that I need to wait 10 - 15 days to let apple unlock my iphone...is this correct?? 2nd: which carrier should i choose if I want to unlock from the original to the new sim carrier when I set up the SAM??? Thank you all~~

SAM unlock is not working for a long time already, so dont bother. And yes, you have to wait certain time, to get unlock, if you used a web service. When the unlock is completed, just restore you phone and it will work.

Hi, thanks for the comment! But may I ask what do you mean by "restore" my iphone?? And may I ask why as long as i sent in my IMEI number then the phone will be unlocked??? Thanks

Switch off your phone, launch iTunes, then connect the phone to the computer by holding the round button pressed. hold it until computer says that it has detected a phone in recovery mode, then press restore. Before you do this, back up your phone.

today i install sam, it is work perfect, and i did all steps and i Hit attemp activation, it restart my iphone, but finally it is not give services, please help me

can you told me how? it need how many $? please explain

Hy, on ebaycom you can find many sellers that can unlock your iPhone, I payed 13$ to official unlock. You only have to send your imei , after 24h its completely unlocked you can even do updates. Go to this website and type unlock iPhone. You ll find this sellers.

i found a way to unlock.. u need to use redsnow and flash the baseband with the ipad baseband and it should work. i have an iPhone 3gs running on 5.1.1 untethered.

could you explain how to flash the baseband?

will this work with an at&t iphone4 5.1 bb 04.12.01? Im scared to do it if it doesnt work. please help!

Tash it won't work anymore. Apple fixed there servers a week ago I think. You'll have to wait. Sorry babe

Ahhh! So now i have to wait for another unlock update? i need it unlock bc im an international student, is there any other way i can unlock this phone?

What phone do you have?

iphone 4... version 5.1 BB 04.12.01

Yea you'll have to wait. I waited 7 months for this last one. :). Keep your eye on this page

Hi, i spend 30 days trying to unlock my iPhone, the only way that i found is unlocksolutionscom, i bought it last week and now my iPhone is unlocked, 100% trustfull, its little expensive but you dont need to buy other phone

No service. Did Apple already block this? Is there anything that needs to be undone before making a 2nd attempt?

Like it says on the top. Apple is blocking this unlock method. We are patiently waiting for a new way to unlock our new devices. Hope it will be possible soon.

when can we expect an update or another way to unlock?

Is this Unlock still working? please update us if this is still usable..

Didn't work for me either, iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.. It continues to say - No Service. Anybody had luck in activating on a similar platform?

Work with all basebands?? including 4.12.01 ? tks

I used this simple method now, but I'm getting an option of invalid sim... What to do

I guess this unlocking method is no longer work since Apple has just fixed it. I just tried on my iPhone 4 5.0.1 and it didn't work. Anyone else has the same problem?

Is it correct that using the SAM unlock, I can only work 2 SIM cards max?

I have an: iPhone 4 V: 5.0.1 BB: 4.10.01 JB and unlocked with Gevey Ultra & running Furious Mod I'm tying to unlock it using this SAM method so I don't have to rely Gevey Ultra anymore but every time I click the "Attempt Activation" button I get this notification: "SAM notification "activation reports Error: activationinfo rejected. you must select the original carrier SIMID of your phone." I tried using the Auto Detect method which is recommended and Method to By Country and Carrier and select the phone's ORIGINAL carrier manually (U.S & tried both AT&T) with no luck. Anyone else have this problem or a solution to this?

SAme problem for me...

Same for me too... If anybody knows how to fix this, please post-it

Hi it took me 2 min to unlock my iphone4 but for last 2 hours I'm trying to unlock 3GS its giving the error about carrier and use simid any 1 can help will b very appreciated

Hi All, I have a iphone 3G which has been jailbroken to iOS 4.1 with the iPad baseband Will this SAM trick help with this as when i use ultrasn0w i get Call failed Any help or advice on the use of SAM with my setup or my ultrasn0w issue is appreciated Cheers S

In step 15, I am not able to see SAM options as it is disabled because my iphone is factory activated. If i 'revert lockdown to stoke' I am not able to enter my iphone at all. And I need to jailbreak it using redsn0w. Please tell me how deactivate my iphone in this case?

sounds like you have hactivate turned on. turn it off

iphone 4S, 5.0.1 This went very smoothly, so smoothly I didn't notice losing my signal and searching. How can I check that my iPhone is indeed unlocked? Thanks for the help.

Can this unlock work without an unofficial sim card?

I may be able to get an unofficial sim this weekend, which i fear may be too late. Any suggestions in where to get an unofficial sim in the US? Walmart?

Any sim will work :)

I got it work, following the simple version instructions, with an iPhone4S locked Japanese Softbank and a TalkMobile SIM (TalkMobile is a Vodafone UK virtual carrier). I then inserted the original Softbank SIM, to check if that still worked. It did, but now I've got a problem when inserting the new TalkMobile SIM. It appears to connect to a network (bars and '3G' , with no carrier name displayed), but all calls fail. When it was working with the new SIM, the carrier name was displayed. When I insert the new SIM, SAM shows the activation state as "Unactivated". I select the country/carrier/SIMID (the only way that worked before). When I press the "Attempt Activation" button, the "Activation This may take some time" overlay dialog appears, but very quickly the screen goes blank with a spinning 'restart' icon which is then soon replaced by the lock screen. From the speed, it looks more as if something is crashing, rather than actually rebotting the whole phone. After that SAM still shows the activation state as "Unactivated". I tried deleting and reinstalling SAM, but the same thing happens. Anyone have any ideas on what to try to get it to work again?

if you read the instructions, it specifically says that this works only with the SIM card you use din the unlock. So it works with your original SIM and the new one. Thats it, so of course it does not work with a 3rd SIM card.

I have a iphone 4 Japanese and not working. I get in the SAM menu an option called "hacktivate". ios version 5.0.1 jailbreak activated by redsnow help please

Thankuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu sammmmm

Only took me like 25 seconds max

Thank you, mine spin for almost 5 minutes and I stoped it, something I doing wrong.

I followed the instructions as noted above for my At&T iPhone 4, 5.0 - 4.11.08. I can download repo.bingner.com, but when I try to instal SAM, it dowloads, but returns errors in red. The last error sates, "error 1" . After respringing, I can see the icon on my phone, but when i press it, there is nothing on the screen. I have tried to uninstall repo.bingner and SAm, and reinstalled twice, but I still get this error number 1. Any help would be immensely appreciated. Thanks antonio770@yaoo.com

Can anyone please help me - I have Iphone4 from U.S. AT&T, but it has never been activated with its original SIM. I used it all the time with GeveySIM. Now, during activation process it says that it needs original SIM... But I do not have it! :(

it asks to choose the carrier not,org sim, so go search it manually

Yes, I know, but it shows the error anyway... :(

This method worked for iphone 4, ios 5.01, BB 4.11.08... An easy 8-step approach for those knowing how to install SAM is at...... http://webhumoratbest.blogspot.in/

This also fixes push notifications too right?

this worked like a dream. however when i get back to north america, i want to revert back to my regular AT&T SIM, without having to use the SAM unlock process. since ive backed up my original AT&T activation tickets, is there a way to restore them so that my original settings are back? would just feel more comfortable this way.

This work with a Verizon 4s iPhone

Hi I am from Uruguay. I unlocked my iPhone 4 with the sam easier way and I can receive but i cannot make a call. Any suggestion ? Thanks.

I too had similar issue. Restart also didnt work. Even reset network settings didnt gelp Finally I solved it by visiting settings/phone/ enable disable call fwd or call waiting or insternational assist - just did on and off to those settings and then onwards my outgoing calls worked fine. After any reboot I had to repeat above steps. Hope this helps you. Confirm if it works.

Hi thanks for your help. It just worked the first time. Then I reboot and cannot disable/enable the options, it says couldn't save call waiting service.

Did you pay your bill?

This worked for me. iPhone4- 5.1. iMessages is not working. Anyone else seeing that

I have a 3GS jail broken and unlocked on 4.3.3 with a firmware of 6.15. I want to update to iOS 5 and still keep my unlock and jailbreak. Can anyone give me instructions on how to do so? Thanks!

Could I revert to AT&T after I do this? I'm on a vacation right now and I dont really need a permanent unlock to one carrier.. any thoughts?

Yes, you can reverse back to ATT.

Wooohooo Its works for me mine in Iphone 4(5.0.1 and 03.10.01 baseband)... :D
