For those who are getting the "this sim card does not appear to be supported" or something like that.. just go to General > About > Settings look at your iphone model and google it to find out what carrier the iphone is locked to, then go to SAM Prefs and in method choose "by bundle name" then in bundle choose the carrier that your iphone is locked to (not your actual carrier), sim id choose any option.. connect to itunes and see it working!! It worked for me... Hope to help.
this works!!!! Thank you so much. I followed your instructions and my server is T-mobile USA. I chose ATT-US and did the samething afterwards it works.
one thing is that i didn't even have to connect to itunes and the status went straight to wildcard. I activated my gevey after all of this
@dkingkyle you can just google your MODEL to find carrier....every now and then the new website i add for finding the carrier goes down..so just google your model number to find carrier
mc603b is my model ... its listed as unlocked for some reason, but i actually use a gevey sim to unlock it in Bahrain ... now i just want to find out what carrier it belongs to so i would be able to do step 6. can someone please help??
@xxbarragerxx but remember u need to select AT&T bundle ....whatever sim ur using it does not have any problem..but u need to select the original carrier it was locked to
@Lawrence99z may be there are other errors with your CYDIA or CYDIA SOURCES ....u can try restarting or checking the cydia sources that are empty in cydia..delete them first and try again ....
Thanks a lot your solution pretty much fixed all my issues except for imesage....nothing happened in the first go though...later everything worked expet for imessage could you please help on the imessage bit please...
hey Guys i have added the new link for checking your carrier in the video description...also u can find this link here dhakamobileDOTcomSLASHshowthreadDOTphp?p=280585
if you don't get BACKUP ACTIVATION skip it and go on RESTORE ACTIVATION. Connect phone to itunes and it will activate. Remove from itunes. Go back into SAM and it will have BACKUP ACTIVATION. Click it and then after that click on RESTORE ACTIVATION and it will load... now go back into iTunes and you are done!!
@sazoc nothing will happen with your unlock if the method goes fine .... but if in some case it gives u a problem such as itunes could not activate etc...then u might need to restore ur system and then unlock it again..is that a big problem for you to restore?
This really helped me! Thank you so much! My Push is back! Thank god! I thought I would have to live checking Whatsapp every few minutes to be up to date on what my friends and colleagues write me. Much obliged friend!
it activated my phone actually >>> then i tried to activate my facetime and imessage and I did >> it seems they are activated but when i use them there is nothing work>>>> help me plzzzz
everything is going or with no errors but still push doesnt work for me, i check other tuts and saw when u plug it back to itunes it should act like u have new phone, that part doesnt happen for me, it just load as my phone though i do get the wildcard activated msg, still push doesnt work.. any idea? thanx for the reply man
when I go to SAM STEP number 4 !! I only see that this device is factory activated while it's not!! I used the jailbreak to smi activate it .... there is no such options like those in step num 4 .... SAM is successfully installed .... what can I do plz!! i need the activation for my facetime and imessage ?
I have IPhone4 5.0.1 baseband 02.10.04 using Geve sim to unlock it.... the phone is activated by new jailbreak juz released! ..... I don't have the orgenal sim that's why i cannt activate facetime and Imessage so does this method work for my device? PLZ .... help me plz am lost!
@mohammedalrfaie i got it!... i got the itunes to activate my phone... now... i cant send imessege... its goes to error.. but when u find ur carrier in the list... u dont have to have the sim...
i donthave BACKUP ACTIVATION (on my sam ) only Revert Lockdown to Stock RESTORE ACTIVATION De-Active Iphon, Regenerate sim and i do what you say in desc. i have carr all but the pohone ist locked and i musst instal ipsw agin helpppppppp
@9907402343 your more than welcome bro....well for better news and asking further questions u can check my facebook page..link is provided in description
I followed all of these steps and now whenever my iPhone crashes or if I plug it into the computer it's on the activation set up screen. My phone was already unlock from ultrasn0w on telus_koodo network
@CpZoneTV plz the best way to get out of it is to REPEAT ALL STEPS....do it again..or come to my facebook page and try the other method i have written there
I can receive text messages perfectly fine but facebook/twitter push notifications wont work for me. I went through the entire process and still doesnt pop-up for
@JKasmi well all i could suggest is to try restarting a few times..taking sim out and in again...wifi on and off..or TRY DOING THE WHOLE PROCESS ONCE AGAIN IF U CAN...
does it take a while for your push notifications to work again? Because I did all steps and it says my phone is activated, but push notifications are still not working.
@JKasmi well kasmi sahb it worked for me in no time....is push notifications the only reason u went through this method????? did u restart iphone? imessage and find my iphone working fine????
I did all the steps my phone activation status says: Unactivated!!
But when I am trying to connect to iTunes it says "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "BlackHawk" because an invalid response was received from the device. Kindly suggest!!
@coldbeersoldhere did u hit the button BACKUP ACTIVATION AND THEN RESTORE ACTIVATION? or i will suggest REPEAT the whole process again..sometimes it does not work for the first time....and thirdly i want to ask about the CARRIER of your phone??? which carrier?
@TheDirtyD69 in step 4 you should fine these in this sequence....
backup activation
restore activation
deactivate iphone
Revert lockdownd to stock
Regenerate SIM
if you don't find Revert lockdownd to stock button then it means SAM did'nt get installed correctly
Solution: If you can see SAM preferences as an application ICON on your iphone screen open it and you can still find REVERT LOCKDOWND TO STOCK in SAM pref.
@jimmy44ch then 1. he has to restore the IOS 5 until this issue resolves 2. or he should jailbreak it first and then follow the tutorial...im sure 2nd one must work

Took a few trys, for me, on my phone, once I got the wildcard activated, I did a backup activation and then restore activation and then it worked.
It seems to work best on a blank phone that was just jail-broken, Get it working and then do the restore from an itunes backup.
Thanks, couldn't have done it without your help.
