iPhone users: Installing iOS 4.1 on your iPhone 4 or 3GS will updated its baseband which is not unlockable ATM. So, if you depend on unlock you’re strongly advised not to go for Greepois0n or Limera1n and also avoid iOS 4.1. Wait for the PwnageTool update which will be anytime now.

However, iPhone 4 users can still update to iOS 4.1 without updating baseband using Tinyumbrella. Here is how to: update iPhone 4 to iOS 4.1 without updating baseband.
