HOW TO: Downgrade 06.15.00 Baseband to 05.13 on iPhone 3G (jailbreak, mod, modding, Auckland iPhone Repair Crook)

Do you want to kill off your iPhone yourself?  There are heaps of "free professional advice" (yearh, right; like the iPhone repair crook in Auckland Central) and "power tips" on the net.  Below is a sample in RED font, please do not use the instruction as it will kill off your iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 in the matter of seconds...Any way, if you do, please contact us to help you!

Most of iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS users updated their baseband to iPad's one which is 06.15.00 to be able to unlock it. It's not possible to restore using stock firmware on iPad's baseband so you can downgrade to baseband 05.13.xx which is unlockable using ultrasn0w and you'll be able also to restore using stock firmware on this baseband.

This method is not official from the iPhone Dev Team. They are still working on an easy-method to downgrade 06.15.00 baseband to lower ones on both iPhone 3G / 3GS. This method works only on iPhone 3G bootloader 5.8. Follow the steps as mentioned on RedmondPie below:

Here's what you will need:

- Jailbroken iPhone 3G

- Fuzzyband installed via Cydiaafc2add installed via Cydia

- i-FunBox (for Windows) or DiskAid (for Mac)

- Certificate to use with Fuzzyband.

And the step by step procedure is as follows:

-Download the required certificate file ICE2-06.15.00.cert from here.

-Install Fuzzyband from Cydia and start this app.

-Connect your iPhone 3G with computer via USB cable.

-Start i-FunBox and click File, then navigate to Applications/Fuzzyband.app, right-click and then select Copy from PC.

-Select the ICE2-06.15.00.cert file you downloaded earlier and then copy it to this location:Applications/Fuzzyband.app.

-Now simply disconnect your iPhone from your computer and start Fuzzyband app (which you previously installed using Cydia) on your iPhone.

-In Fuzzyband, you will now see your current version of Baseband, (which should still be 06.15.00). But now you will have the option to downgrade it to version 05.13.xx.

Once you have downgraded, Go to Settings –> About, and scroll down to check your Baseband which should now read 05.13.xx (which is unlockable via Ultrasn0w). You can now also update or restore any firmware without iTunes throwing errors.

HOW TO: Jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 iPhone 4, 3gs, 3g, iPad, iPodTouch (tech news update, Apple, "Auckland Crook")

A client had forwarded the "free instruction" he found on the internet trying to unlock his UK Apple iPhone 4 on Vodafone network.  He had bricked it instantly.  That is why we alway emphasized that "Let the Pro" do the job.  Why kill your own expensive iPhone 4 just to be a bit adventurous or trying to save a few dollar.

Do not be surprise there is a LOSER operating in Auckland Central, using these "free iPhone Unlock" information to experiment on innocent Kiwi victims and even cheated the leading insurance companies in New Zealand.  If you are working for an insurance company and believe that your insurance company had been ripoff by iPhone repair crooks in New Zealand, please text or call us at (021) 117-2222 and we see how we can synergize to bring this offender to face some jail time.

Please do not use information below (indicated in RED font, you will likely to kill off your iPhone 4 within minutes):

Few moment ago we broke the news about the release of Redsn0w 0.9.6b4 to jailbreak iOS 4.2.1 on iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, iPod touch 4G, 3G and iPad with working MobileSubstrate, as we told you earlier that redsn0w 0.9.6b4  is based on GeoHot's limera1n bootrom exploit.

The bad new is that right now, the redsn0w 0.9.6b4 is a tethered or semi-tethered jailbreak for some devices (i.e. you will lose your jailbreak every time you reboot your iDevice, so you have to follow the following steps every reboot to have a jailbroken device )

Untethered Devices:

iPhone 3GS (old bootrom)

iPhone 3

iPod touch 2G (Non-MC Model)

Tethered Devices:

iPhone 3GS (new bootrom)

iPhone 4

iPad

iPod touch 2G (MC Model)

iPod touch 3G

iPod touch 4G

NOTE: Those of you who rely on a carrier unlock stay away from Redsn0w and iOS 4.2.1. 

GUIDE:

- Download redsn0w 0.9.6b4,  iOS 4.2.1 for your device(download links at the end).

- Update to 4.2.1 firmware using the IPSW file you just downloaded via iTunes 10.1.

- Select "Install Cydia" and click on "Next"

- Now make sure your device is both OFF and PLUGGED IN to the computer before you click "Next".

- At this stage you will need to put your iPhone in DFU mode by holding "Power" button and then while holding the "Power" button, you will now have to hold "Home" button too. Now after few seconds release "Power" button but keep holding "Home" button until installation begins.

- You will Get a Jailbroken Device on the latest iOS 4.2.1  as soon as the process ends.

-  This step is only for these devices iPhone 4, 3GS (New Bootrom), iPod touch 4G,  3G, 2G, iPad. While this is tethered jailbreak and whenever you want to do anything related to jailbreak like SSH your device, or running Cydia, you must first run your device in the so called "jailbroken state" on every reboot by using "Just boot tethered right now" option. 

Download iOS 4.2.1 (Final version) for your device version.

How to Unlock Your iPhone 4.2.1 with UltraSn0w (Auckland, Apple, Crook, Criminal, "Auckland Central")

Our advice to you is DON'T DO IT.  This is how the semi-pro in Auckland Central killed off innocent customer's expensive Apple iPhone 4G.

The following is the typical information on unlocking show in red font (please do not try that at home, you will kill off your iPhone 4 and we will not be responsible. You have been warned not to use the information to wreck your phone!).  

The Dev Team has updated their UltraSn0w iPhone unlock for iOS 4.2.1. UltraSn0w 1.2 will unlock iPhone 4 baseband 01.59.00 and iPhone 3G/3GS basebands 04.26.08, 05.11.07, 05.12.01, 05.13.04 and now 06.15.00.

If your iPhone 4 is not on baseband 01.59.00, you will not be able to unlock it. If your iPhone 3G or 3GS is on one of the baseband version mentioned above, then you can follow the instructions below…

If your iPhone 3G or 3GS is not on one of the baseband version mentioned above, you will have to first update your baseband to 06.15.00. See our Pwnage Tool Tutorial or RedSnow to do this.

This process doesn't come without its share of risks, so it is very important you read thisbefore doing anything. Seriously, make sure you read it.

Step 1: Make sure your iPhone is jailbroken using Pwnage Tool or RedSnoW

Step 2: Launch Cydia, and search for UltraSn0w.

Step 3: Reboot your iPhone.

Your iPhone is now unlocked. There is no real way to test it until you pop a different SIM card in.

He is a sly crook with extremely well-oiled tongue.  He will charge you $50 or $85 (depending on how innocent you are) to "try to unlock" but will not guarantee it will work. Then he will use your iPhone 4 as a guinea pig to do the unlocking.  According to sources, this dodgy crook operates from a run-down "high-tech" lot, looks like cheap a $2 dollar shop (a fat China lady is alway hanging around for what purpose, no one knows!).

Once he kills the iPhone 4, he will start to blame the world, God, his dog.  Upon which, he will be driving around Auckland hunting for repair centres to save his ass (most of the time this failed as there is no known solution yet for 4.2.1 unlock on iPhone 4G).

How to catch an iPhone Thief via Email bcc (tech, news, report, Apple, iPad, Auckland)

If you're looking to protect your iPhone from thefts, then look no further than what one 64 year old iPhone owner has done — which allowed him to find his stolen iPhone.  Note:  picture is not my creation and forwarded by an unknown contributor.  If you are a crook and look like faces on the picture, do not blame any one. Go home and blame your parents.

His anti-theft solution was both simple and ingenious at the same time; the person has simply set up his e-mail address to be Blind Carbon Copied on all outgoing e-mails from his iPhone.

And, after his iPhone got stolen, he received some BCC's of e-mails of someone e-mailing photos of himself — using the stolen iPhone– sent to the person's friends.

The recipients of those e-mails were e-mailed, asked who was the one that sent them those photos, and warned that police would be involved next.  Miraculously (or not), the missing iPhone was returned the next day…
