HOW TO: Unlock Your iPhone 4S [ NO Jailbreak OR 3rd Party Adapters Required ]

Yes, you read that right. You can unlock your GSM iPhone 4S, without a jailbreak or any other 3rd party adapters like the geveySIM. Head over the break to see how to do it…

NOTE: we’re not sure if this works for international iPhone 4S’. But feel free to try it out and let us know. ( NOTE: if you’re international, don’t call 611. Call your carrier’s customer service hotline )

NOTE: you need a T-Mobile data plan too

NOTE: you need to do it every time your restart your device. NOT a permanent unlock

NOTE: reports says it works with the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 too, but we can’t confirm that

LATER EDIT:  NOT working. MuscleNerd confirms it. He says that ‘If you are successful at temporarily gaining network access, you’ll lose it as soon as TMSI is refreshed (happens often)’
