    • iPhoneHeat 11 October 2010 at 4:20 am #

      latest baseband? wait for an ultrasn0w update..
      older baseband? install UltraSn0w from Cydia

  7. casgoin 10 October 2010 at 5:57 pm #

    there is no unlock for the new baseband right ?

    • kiid 10 October 2010 at 6:37 pm #

      correct

  8. ponci 10 October 2010 at 9:15 pm #

    PEOPLE IF U WANT TO UNLOCK 4.1 U SHOULD BE CAREFUL AND USE TINY UMBRELLA WHEN UPGRADING TO 4.1 THAT WILL SAVE UR OLD BASEBAND !!! THATS WHAT I DID NOW I HAVE A 4.1 WITH 1.59 BASEBAND !!! READ MOST OF IPHONE HEAT’S POSTS BEFORE SCREWING UP !!!

  9. ponci 10 October 2010 at 10:28 pm #

    GREEN POISON GOT JUST DELAYED, IT PROBABLY WONT COME OUT UNTIL NEXT IPHONE UPDATE. FOR NOW LETS JUST USE LIMERAIN AND KEEP ON WAITING FOR MORE VERSIONS OF LIMERAIN FOR OTHER IPHONE AND IPOD VERSIONS !!!

    Hey! THANKS for the upload. I am at school and downloaded Lime.

    When I open it, it says “let it rain” and to attach device. I don’t have the cord and will do it when I get home. My question is “how long does it take to jailbreak?”

    And is this the only thing I have to do? It is THAT easy aside from downloading the applesync? THANKS!

  23. stan 12 October 2010 at 1:57 am #

    Thanks.

  29. Ronreflex 12 October 2010 at 6:43 pm #

    Qucik question, As long as i have an official carriers sim, i do not need to unlock it yes? only a jailbreak of limera1n or of green poison woul suffice? should i hold out on the unlock as well?

    i own a iphone 3gs with iOS 4.1 with 5.14.02 baseband

    and im pretty sure its the new boot rom.

  30. Figmang 13 October 2010 at 6:35 am #

    Hey evebody i know All of you are excited
    I found a way to update your firmware to 4.1
    Without updating your baseband or modem
    It will be really useful for the people that is running
    4.0.2 and want to jailbreak and unlock but want to keep old
    Base band!
    This is how:
    First download 4.1os then have your iPhone 4 o 3GS
    Ready to update
    Plug it to iTunes and then recover holding shift and look for the firmware
    4.1 your going to update
    Then update but when the process it’s on it’s half way
    Unplug your Internet service it will continue restoring but I guess the las part of rstoring is upgrading the baseband but since isn’t plug to the Internet service
    iTunes won’t do that part it will send you and error message and the iPhone
    Will stay in dfu mode
    Use tinyumbrella to kick out of recovery mode
    And listo!
    Updated but with your old base band
    Then just run limera1n and jailbreak then install cydia
    And ultrasnow this is for everybody that needs to unlock
    And preserve old basebands from 4.01 or 4.02 it was easy
    And it work for me

  31. dsinc 13 October 2010 at 7:54 pm #

    can we unlock iphone 4 4.1 if the iphone comewith the official firmware 4.1 ?

    THANNS!

  34. thesaipankid 15 October 2010 at 9:11 am #

    First I download limera1n I was reading it and it can’t jailbreak iPod touch 2G! Then I download greenpoison again I was reading it and it can’t jailbreak iPod touch 2 G. I have helped others jailbreak there iPhone & iPod touch. So guess who is not yet jailbreak!!! ME!!!

  35. kalia 17 October 2010 at 3:45 am #

    ive also tried several times on my ipod touch 3g, iOS4.1 and didnt see the limra1n icon, even after rebooting, even though it said complete…whats wrong with it?

    • DrRNA 9 November 2010 at 3:37 am #

      Sorry to tell it never worked for my iPod touch 3G. The process confirmed it was done but even after 5 reboot, the limra1n app never showed on my iPod. Too bad.

    • DrRNA 27 November 2010 at 6:31 pm #

      Thanxx for the follow-up. I finally succeed to do it. I guess there was a confusion with the iPod version 2G or 3G on my side. It works better with the appropriated ipsw version ;-)

  38. Dream_Loud 26 November 2010 at 5:55 pm #

    Will my iPod Touch be locked or skrewed up??? Please answer
