Few days back iPhone Dev Team has released the updated Ultrasn0w 1.2.1 unlock for Apple iOS 4.3.1 having old baseband and it also fix signal issues that were reported by iPhone users who had their iPhone 4, 3GS Jailbreak on iOS 4.3.1.

We’ve pushed out the 4.3.1 compatibility fix for ultrasn0w in Cydia — it’s now at version 1.2.1. If you’re not already at 4.3.1 and you need the unlock, please be sure you understand how to get to 4.3.1 using a custom IPSW that doesn’t update your baseband.

This isn’t a new unlock! It’s to allow those who are already unlocked to use FW 4.3.1. It also fixes the signal bar issue for those who aren’t using the unlock but retain an older baseband intentionally.

AFTER INSTALLING ULTRASN0W 1.2.1, PLEASE REBOOT YOUR iPHONE using the normal “slide to power off” swipe. T-Mobile users in the USA also should disable 3G mode in Settings->General->Network.

NOTE: Supported basebands: (01.59.00 / 04.26.08 / 05.11.07 / 05.12.01 / 05.13.04 / 06.15.00)

For unlocking iPhone 3GS, first you need to jailbreak it first and update its baseband to 6.15.00 baseband on iOS 4.1/4.2.1.

STEP ONE: You need to Jailbreak your Apple iPhone 4 / 3GS having iOS 4.3.1 by preserving your old baseband.

STEP TWO: Now you have jailbroken iPhone 4 / 3GS, unlock your iPhone 4 / 3GS using Ultrasn0w 1.2.1 by mean of Cydia. You can follow the steps below;
