Could you possibly elaborate on the unlock legality issues? I, and I'm sure many others, would be interested.
ReplyDeleteThe way I was looking it up was by an API I created that would directly interact with Apple GSX and process a request to check the status of an IMEI. In the long run, Apple would become aware of how I'm doing it and do something drastic such as limit the amount of requests permitted per GSX account (200 per hour for example) or most likely terminate my account. I'm also pretty sure its a violation of Apple GSX's term of service. There are alternatives to checking the unlock status... But then the issue of bandwidth/load management comes into effect. Unless the device is jailbroken there isn't much you do to check. I will continue looking into it in the near future though.
DeleteWhat's GSX?
DeleteI'm on Windows 7 and can't strat it do I need a specific version of iTunes? It says can't Hook iTunes
ReplyDeleteLet me start by saying I am a novice at jailbreaking/unlocking. I started 4 days ago. I have managed to get a tethered jailbreak and unlock of my granddaughters iphone 3gs (new boot rom) on ios 6.0.1. Many kudos to the fine people who are doing the jailbreak/unlock work. In order to accomplish this I did the jailbreak with sn0breeze, tried the unlock which did not work. I then used redsn0w to downgrade the modem firmware and all was well. I now use ibooty to start the phone and have given her a copy of the program. Is there an easier way to do what I did? I did not have access to any blobs that I am aware of.
ReplyDeleteYes there is(if you have idea regarding shsh blobs then you can do more).But if you are dull in iPhone just Download iOs 4.1 for iPhone 3gs.Restore with itunes.Restore with itunes and fix recovery through ireb(www.ih8sn0w.com).And you will get ios 4.1 now jailbreak with redsn0w and get untethered. :-)

Sorry I know I am off topic and in the wrong place but, Q: Wife updated iOS to 6.0.1 via WiFi. Non-jailbroken iPhone 4s is now in recovery mode. Don´t want to restore (no backup since the renaissance). Tried kicking it out using tinyumbrella (stuck in loop) and fixrecovery 421 (goes through what I believe is all the stages but ultimately ends up in recovery mode again). Any hope of retrieving photos etc. ?
ReplyDeletetheres nothing idea rather then restore for i4s
