To carrier unlock an iPhone 3GS running iOS 6.0, you will first need to jailbreak your device. Once jailbroken, the most common method is using ultrasn0w from Cydia. However, ultrasn0w only works with specific baseband versions such as 04.26.08, 05.11.07, 05.12.01, 05.13.04, and 06.15.00. If your baseband is not compatible, you can use RedSn0w to update to the 06.15.00 iPad baseband and then downgrade to 05.13.04 to ensure your GPS remains functional. Alternatively, check if you are eligible for an official IMEI unlock from your carrier, which is the most stable and permanent solution for legacy devices.
