AnySim iPhone Unlocking Guide

AnySim iPhone Unlocking Guide (with images coming shortly)

WARNING: THIS GUIDE SHOULD BE USED AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THIS MAY CAUSE THE IPHONE. UNLOCKING THE IPHONE WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. THIS PROCEDURE IS INTENDED FOR ADVANCE COMPUTER USERS. IF YOU DON’T LIKE COMPUTERS DO NOT TRY UNLOCKING YOUR PHONE.

Files Needed:

iBrickr – Client to break activation (www.iBrickr.com)

anysim – PXL file to install on iPhone (google anysim)

PACAY – used to enable YouTube support. (google PACAY)

All files should be downloaded and extracted in iBrickr folder. I placed them on my desktop.

Before you begin: it is assumed you have unboxed the iPhone and has been charged

1. Open iBrickr
2. Connect iPhone to PC
3. iBrickr will check if the iPhone has right version of firmware
4. Follow the on screen instructions
5. If that fails do this:
a. Plug your phone in / dock it, and turn it off
b. Power it on
c. While the grey apple appears, press and hold both the power and home buttons until a Yellow triangle sign appears and says "Please connect to iTunes"
d. iTunes will pop up talking about restoring your phone. Select restore, and once it starts downloading unplug the phone, then press and hold power and home buttons again, until the phone restarts
e. Wait for the restore to fail in iTunes, and then start up iBrickr again.
6. Once you get this down, iBrickr will walk you through the next steps
7. Once Completed. Exit iBrickr
8. Go to the PACAY folder within iBrickr folder and run the "(CLICK HERE) activate.bat" file. This will enable YouTube. Follow the on screen instructions.
9. Once you complete PACAY make sure you follow the instructions and have restarted.
10. Open iBrickr click applications and let it install the PXL service. Follow onscreen instructions in the iBrickr program.
11. After you have rebooted the phone one final time, select Check PXL. This will verify the installation of PXL.
12. Close iBrickr and reopen it. Click Application -> Install from PXL or Browse Application (Browsing is the best way use the latest version of anysim – the first release of anysim had a bug – but still successfully unlocked the phone)
13. If you selected install from file, select th anysim.pxl file. If you selected browse, select AnySim
14. The installation will be quick.
15. Navigate on you iPhone and go to Settings -> General -> auto lock. Set the setting to never.
16. Hit the home key. Click on the AnySim icon to start the unlock.
17. Agree to the disclaimer. (Again stating use at your own risk)
18. AnySim will take 15-20 minutes to unlock the phone.
19. I used the first release of anysim which had the bug. It will successfully patch the phone but state it failed to unlock. Insert a sim card and place a call. If you can successful place a class that means the unlock worked.
20. Many people have asked about removing the AnySim program. You can do that from iBrickr
