More recently, the famous Canadian iOS programmer, known under the nickname iH8Sn0w until version 2.9.9. This application will be very useful for owners of Apple smartphones locked to the operator, because Only with help you can get it on iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS with subsequent unlocking.

In contact with

The main feature of this tool is the creation of custom iOS 6.1 firmware with jailbreak without upgrading the modem and with the possibility of activation (hackactivation).

The disadvantages include working only on the Windows operating system and supporting only older devices such as the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4.

Why do you need custom firmware without upgrading the modem?

The fact is that when updating (restoring) an iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 (and any other iPhone) to the official firmware, along with updating iOS itself, the modem firmware version, which is responsible for unlocking the smartphone, is often updated.

For example, if you have an iPhone 3GS locked to an operator with the legendary modem version from iPad - 06.15.00 (or any other), then when you update to the official iOS 6.1 firmware, at best you will receive a “software” (fixable) brick, but if If your iPhone 3GS was released after October 2011, then there is a high probability of getting a “hardware” brick, which can only be restored by replacing the so-called modem part of the “flash drive”. This pleasure is not cheap; the cost of replacing a flash drive ranges from $30 to $80.

From my own observations, I can say with 99.9% confidence that you will not experience a hardware failure of the modem part (flash drive) on an iPhone 3GS with 16 or 32 GB of memory. These models were no longer produced until October 2011. But with the iPhone 3GS 8 GB version you need to be more careful; I repeat that when updating an iPhone 3GS 8 GB released after October 2011 to the official firmware, there is a huge probability of failure of the modem part of the smartphone.

The first signs of failure of the modem part are the absence of Settings values IMEI, Bluetooth, WiFi. If the problem is caused by updating (restoring) to the official firmware, then on iPhone 3GS 16 and 32GB this can be cured programmatically, but not always on iPhone 3GS 8GB. I take this opportunity to invite you (pah-pah-pah, of course) to our "Apple-repair" — .

And so, the custom iOS 6.1 firmware obtained with the help provides the opportunity to restore any iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 locked to an operator WITHOUT updating (upgrading) the modem firmware version. Those. in this case, ONLY the iOS version is upgraded, and the modem version remains unchanged. This allows you to easily unlock an iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 running iOS 6.1 using a utility or turbo SIM cards (Gevey, Rebel, etc.)

— it was noticed that an iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 with custom firmware installed is NOT detected in iTunes. Unfortunately, we don't have a solution yet. However, for synchronization, we recommend using third-party applications similar to iTunes, such as iTools or iFunBox.
