I’ve tried all of the other 3rd party apps and tutorials out there for jailbreaking, unlocking and activating the iPhone. Do this, then do this, then do this, then wait… if that doesn’t work, try this… 🙂
Today I installed and ran ZiPhone 2.5… it’s an easy to use jailbreak, unlock and activation utility for iPhone. All I can say is WOW this is easy to use.
This morning I had an iPhone sitting on my desk… running 1.1.4… jailbroken, but not unlocked or activated. I opened up ZiPhone, ticked off the ‘Jailbreak’ and ‘Activate iPhone’ options in the advanced tab, then clicked the ‘start process’ button. A minute or so later, I had an iphone that was unlocked, activated and ready to use. Sure enough, once I slipped my SIM card in, the phone worked beautifully.
ZiPhone is said to work flawlessly with OTB 1.1.4 iPhones… However I wouldn’t be surprised if it worked with 1.1.1 all the way up to 1.1.4. I’d be interested to hear your experiences with ZiPhone if you do decide to give it a whirl. Worked great for me and I have absolutely no complaints.
If you do have troubles with it, I would recommend performing a ‘restore and update’ process in your iTunes first to bring the iPhone to 1.1.4…Once you have the iPhone running 1.1.4 open ZiPhone and have at ‘er. 🙂
