Apple is Blocking the SAM Unlock, Backup Your Unlock Tickets!

Apple is Blocking the SAM Unlock, Backup Your Unlock Tickets!

Posted April 27, 2012 at 12:14am by iClarified · 103653 views
Apple is currently in the process of blocking the SAM unlock, reports MuscleNerd. If you need to unlock a SIM or backup your unlock ticket do it now!

Looks like Apple's currently fixing their activation servers. But the good news is that previous tickets gotten via SAM trick still work.

what it boils down to is an incorrect assumption on the part of the ticket server, which is why it was so quick to fix


for the next few hours, trying SAM on new SIMs will probably be hit or miss, but eventually it will be all "miss"

Maybe a Dumb question... but why Apple blocked the SAM unlock, I mean this could easily help them sell more iPhones. are they afraid that the authorized carriers might sue him?

You are correct. It is a dumb question. You don't think that this has been asked before?

Uk networks unlock their iphones for £20 if on prepay or free if on contract. i really cant see why that is so expensive. Here in the uk we are pretty lucky seeing as every carrier sells the iphone

its simple, don't use the latest iPhone if you cant afford it. just use iPhone 3g or 3gs. don't buy something or want to have something that you can't afford it.

Exactly. If you can't afford it, then don't buy and for sure don't complain about it.

Here's the thing. SAM is not working and he REALLY wants to use SAM. I have an idea! Try calling up Apple and asking for Tim Cook. When he picks up, and if he does, tell him to stop doing whatever he has asked his team on doing with the activation servers and let your SAM unlock go through. Once done, call him again, thank him and request him to proceed with whatever he was doing. Now, stand up, wave, salute your phone and call yourself a Hero! This method definitely works.

I M on AT&T ..I just tried my iphone4S to unlock it just for fun..worked great,, So I heard apple was blockinb SAM since ive Saved mine.so I inserted my Tmobile worked then it says no sim..the phone has rebooted then it says activation required .. Of course I inseted my att SIM card ...now my Itunes wont recognize my AT&T SIM card I cant even activate my own legit Iphone4S with my own sim card... It says NO SIM CARD Installed ,what do I need to do ? I dont want to restore my iphone4S im on 5.0 been happy with it..like fucking idiot I didnt even need an unlock I think if I could succeed to deactivate with a redsnow it will work.. But searched everywhere Its only available for the 3gs Any help will be great..otherwise Im going just restore it... Also does anyone know if you could downgrade an IPHONE4S with snowbreeze from 5.1 to 5.0 OR 5.0.1? .
