Relentleslee

Hey can someone help me because im awfully confused Basically I have a Jailbroken Iphone 4 on the 4.1 firmware with a 02.10.04 baseband, so I was wondering, is it possible for me to unlock it at all? I tried searching for an answer but im not sure what to do, I diden't have a clue what any of the guides were on about. Also is it possible for me to update to 4.2 and still jailbreak my phone? sorry im just really confused :L basically - Can I update my phone and still jailbreak it/ and is it possible to unlock it to. thanks

This iphone 4 with 02.10.04 baseband, cannot be unlocked yet.
Although it is possible to jailbreak (tethered) an iphone 4 on IOS 4.2, unlockers are advised to stay away from any official update as it may hinder a future jailbreak / unlock solution.

A reference please as the information from here is that the new RedSn0w unlock only applies to basband 01.59.04. I hope I'm wrong

Thanks for the help guys, agh thats rough, so should i just leave my iphone the way it is for the time being? Is there going to be anything released in the near future to let me unlock my phone and upgrade to. 4.2? Im not really pushed about updating the firmware more focused on unlocking my phone so.

No matter what you do, you cannot unlock right now I'm afraid. End of story, no ifs no buts.

You have two choices when it comes to jailbreaking though.

(Not sure if you know the difference between a tethered and untethered jailbreak)
Tethered - If for whatever reason your phone turns off, you will need to connect it to a computer to turn it back on.
Untethered - You don't have to connect to a comp to turn it back on

1. Stay at 4.1 and run Redsn0w/limera1n/greenpois0n. Either or, makes no difference really. That gives you a full untethered jailbreak.

2. Update to 4.2 and jailbreak with Redsn0w. This is a tethered jailbreak.

Whatever you do, I recommend you run TinyUmbrella and save your SHSH if you haven't already done so.
