Ultrasn0w Unlock Updated
November 29, 2010
The long awaited update to Ultrasn0w is now available. The update uses the iPad’s old baseband (06.15.00) from iOS 3.2.2 to unlock anyone stuck at basebands 5.14.01, 5.14.02, or 5.15.05 for the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS.
This news comes from the iPhone Dev Team, which has published the following instructions:
We’ve been busy updating both PwnageTool and redsn0w to make the baseband update as seamless as possible.Ultrasn0w requires you to be jailbroken and to use pwnagetool to upgrade your baseband firmware to iPad’s 06.15.00 baseband. Ultrasn0w is then available to unlock that baseband and can be downloaded for free from Cydia. For jailbroken iPhone 3G and 3GS users, this update is a must-have. It is too bad iPhone 4 users haven't felt the same kind of love! But the Dev team is working on it. As always, we encourage our readers to make sure they understand the steps before proceeding.These tools can be downloaded from: Iphone Dev-Team Blog
- First up is “PwnageTool 4.1.3 Unlock Edition”. It has a special dialog box which will ask you if you want to update to the iPad baseband. You must already have the iPad 3.2.2 IPSW on your computer (see the above link)….so just point PwnageTool at it (or let it find it on its own if you’re in “simple” mode).
- Directly after PwnageTool 4.1.3 is available, the official ultrasn0w repo http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com will be updated with ultrasn0w 1.2, which covers 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.
- Finally, we’ll release an update to redsn0w today for those without Macs and can’t run PwnageTool. The new redsn0w will give you the option to update your baseband to 06.15 too.
