This is BY FAR the easiest jailbreak ever! THANK COMEX! Ok so let's begin: 1. Update to iOS 4.0.1 (or 3.2.1 for iPad) in iTunes (must have the latest iTunes. Download here: http://apple.com/itunes/) 2. After you've updated to iOS 4.0.1 (or 3.2.1 for iPad), launch Safari on your iPhone (Make sure you're connected to WiFi) 3. Go to this website on your iPhone/iPad: www.jailbreakme.com4. Slide your finger across where it says "Slide to Jailbreak" 5. Wait while it jailbreaks your iPhone 4/3GS/3G. Shouldn't take long. 6. Within minutes you'll have a jailbroken iPhone/iPad! Reboot your iPhone (just in case). Enjoy! NOTE: The iPhone Dev Team will be releasing iPhone 4 unlock shortly (a few final tests). For those on the iPhone 3GS/3G, you may unlock your iPhone 3GS/3G using the Dev Team's ultrasn0w (which still works on iPhone 3G/3GS on 4.0.1). The Dev Team has released Ultrasn0w for the iPhone 4!Directions for iPhone 4/3GS/3G unlock:
1. Once you've jailbroken your iPhone 4/3GS/3G on iOS 4.0.1, launch Cydia. Go to Manage>Sources. Touch on “Edit” and then on “Add”. You will be prompted to enter a URL source. Type in: http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com and press “Add Source”. 2. After installation is completed. Search for: ultrasn0w in Cydia and install this application. This app will automatically unlock your iPhone 4/3GS3G so that you can use it with any GSM carrier. And you're done! You now have an iPhone 4/3G/3GS jailbroken and unlocked on the newest OS 4.0.1! If anyone has any issues, let me know. |

Yes, 100%. I've already jailbroken my iPad, both of my iPhone 3GS, and a friend's iPhone 3G. It works! |

Or do you have a friend with AT&T? All you need to do is insert the AT&T SIM card into the iPhone and then connect to iTunes. It will get you to the homescreen. Then jailbreak and unlock. |

Just wondering, does this Unlock also work with the iPhone 4 or is it only compatible with the 3G/3GS?

Apple is not updating the iPhone 2G to OS4, so this tool is not for the 2G. Just wondering, does this Unlock also work with the iPhone 4 or is it only compatible with the 3G/3GS?
Yes, the unlock for the iphone 4 has been released. Refer to the original post at the top of the page. I've updated with directions. |

Kickstar, I upated to the 4.01 and went to jailbreakme.com and it keeps crashing. It downloads but doesnt jailbreak even after restarting the phone. When I go back to the website it says the installer crashed last time ou tried to jailbreak it might work if you try again. Please advise. Now i have a brick!
Edit* It is working now, i had to do a fresh restore thanks!
However MMS is not working again, is there a patch for this on Cydia? I have all the correct settings in my Network data

The only thing that changed is its not a violation of the DMCA, not a mater of legal or not legal. There might be some debate on whether or not Apple has the right to void your warranty for jail-breaking your iPhone, they definitely are under no obligation to support it or make it easier for you.

Hey Kickstar... I've got a REAL rookie question about jailbreaks/unlocking in general... Being a relative rookie at the iPhone, it's not intuitively obvious WHERE the SIM card lives and how to replace the 'factory installed' SIM card with another??
I really do want to get this phone but I need some advice and guidance on how to go about getting the iPhone 4 jail broken for TMO....HELP@!!
UPDATE: Found my answer..Thanks ANYWAY !!!

How do you unlock an iPhone 4 and use it on T-MO when the SIM cards are different sizes?
I can't just put my card in, like I did on a 3GS...
