Gevey interposers are a household name with iPhone owners stuck on basebands that can not be unlocked using a software solution. The new Gevey Ultra S interposer claims to provide iPhone 4S unlock on basebands 1.10.11, 1.10.13 and 1.10.14.
Gevey interposers provide a hardware unlock solution for iPhones on certain troublesome basebands. Since the launch of iPhone 4S, Gevey Ultra S is the first offering by this manufacturer for Apple's latest smartphone. In this month alone TPSIM and R-SIM interposer for iPhone 4S unlock were made available for order. However both of these interposers came from previously unknown manufacturers hence they have not been able to generate business, since no one knows their legitimacy.
Customers have grown to trust Gevey interposers. They have been widely used previously for unlocking iPhone 4 devices stuck on higher basebands. Today Applenberry posted a video on YouTube showing Gevey Ultra S in action. Using this new interposer GSM iPhone 4S owners will be able to fully unlock their new iPhones and get the freedom of running it on any network of their choice.
Applenberry state that no jailbreak will be required for this unlock to function. However an untethered jailbreak for iPhone 4S on iOS 5.0.1 and iOS 5.0 is available. Previously, the legality of Gevey came under debate because during the unlock procedure international emergency number 112 needed to be dialled and hung up almost instantly. Gevey Ultra S will still spoof the IMSI of iPhone 4S, but the unlock will not require dialling 112. This method of iPhone 4S unlock is compatible with both iOS 5.0 and iOS 5.0.1. Device in question should have baseband 1.0.11, 1.0.13 and 1.0.14.
No physical modifications to SIM tray or the micro-SIM itself are required. Gevey Ultra S provides complete unlock and the iPhone 4S will be able to use 2G and 3G services without any issues. Gevey Ultra S is only available for pre-order online right now for $54.99. Shipping is estimated to begin between March 3 and March 7, 2012.
While many might argue the legal side of things for this iPhone 4S unlock, I'm quite sure many owners would jump at the joy of being able to liberate their devices. Even though Applenberry have a good track record with their previous interposers, given the high price tag buyers must exercise caution and wait for legitimate reviews before purchasing. For all we know, it can be a scam to take your hard earned money.
