Iphone 4 : Activation, Jailbreak and Unlocked

Good day everyone. In order to use your iPhone, you have to activate it. While setting up the orignal iPhone and iPhone 3G required using iTunes, newer models are activated and mostly set up in the store. This is a step-by-step guide to everything you need to know about iPhone activation to get you started using it right away!

Activation :-

This method i tested using iphone 4. :) Turn on your iphone and attached it to your computer. Make sure your iTunes is the latest version, which is 9.2.1. I don't i highly recommend that to upgrade your iTunes first. After that get connected to your pc using USB cable that provided to you and follow the screen instructions. Enter your details there and you'll be asked about your iStore account too. iStore account is important for to access tones of apps in the Apple apps store.

Jailbreak :-

These are instructions on how to jailbreak any iPhone (including the iPhone 4) on iOS 4 using JailbreakMe by Comex. Before beginning make sure your device is activation on iOS 4.0.0 or 4.0.1. Ok for jailbreaking follow the steps below :-

7. Press the Home button to reveal Cydia on your desktop!
8. Congratulations you are done! You may now continue by installing UltraSn0w to unlock :)

Unlock :-

You still can't use your iPhone because your SIM is not officially iPhone carrier. In Malaysia, if you want to use iPhone 4, you need to wait for Maxis announced it arrival. Maxis is a official carrier for iPhone in Malaysia. So if you're using others service such as Celcom or DIGI, then you need to unlock it first. :) Here's how :-
