iPhone 4 Unlock Rebel Xpress Micro SimCard


For all those of you who utilise a Rebel Micro Unlock sim & dont want to wait and would like to try out the new iOS 5 its an excellent chance now for you.

Some days ago the new iOS 5.0 Beta 6 was released by Apple. Its taken 3 Days for the hacker community to create a software tool called SnowBreeze that can create a custom iPSU with a preserved baseband.

You can Download the Snow Breeze v2.8b6 files here and downloads the iOS Beta 6 firmware file from here.

Tutorial how to convert-apple-ios-.dmg-file-to-.ipsw-en.html

The Snowbreeze application can also jailbreak the iOS 5.0 Beta 6 but is not yet Un Tethered.

You can do only one of the 2 via this solution.

1     Jailbreak your iPhone 4 but you would need to update the Baseband but cant yet use Rebel Micro Unlock Simcards till we Release a new firmware soon when Apple releases the official version around Mid September and you can update your older cards using the Rebel Programmers.

2    Using the Snowbreeze  software you can create in minutes a modified iOS 5.0 Beta 6 IPSU file where the Baseband is Preserved with the 04.10.01 version. Using this file you can update your iPhone 4 in Itunes via the Restore Function an then still use the Latest iOS 5.0 beta 6 software and still be able to unlock your iPhone 4 using the Rebel Micro Unlock Simcards.

Some Differences in the instructions 

The unlock instructions are still the same but one thing to note is this. Once you power on the iPhone 4 with your desired network simcard and the Rebel Micro unlock simcard you will see a pop up Menu as normal and select the Accept option on the Rebel Xpress & the Init112 option on the Rebel Pro micro sim.

Up to this point when you press the Accept or Init112 option you would normally see the state of the iPhone to show only 1 Bar. This option to show the 1 Bar is no longer working the same way when unlocking iPhone 4 iOs Beta 6 with the preserved Baseband 04.10.01 version.

How to go about unlocking your iphone 4 with the changes for iOs 5 Beta 6

When you now press Accept or Init112 you will see the top left hand corner status change from searching to No service Only.

Proceed as normal with the Rebel Micro sim  instructions and all else will work the same way its working for you now with Lower version of the iOS firmwares.

Rebel Iphone 4 Lite Dual Sim adapter

Specification of Rebel Lite Iphone 4 Dual sim adapter by the Rebel Team

Requirements

1        Network Simcard Pre Cut to Micro Simcard format.  ( Not included )

1        Network Simcard Not Cut to Micro Simcard format or a Pre Cut micro sim with a Rebel Micro sim adapter. ( Not included )

1        Virtually any Case that case be used to keep the Rebel Lite adapter in place but a Black Coloured Case is supplied with the Kit as standard.

Important Please Note

The Dual Cards do NOT support DUAL STANDBY Mode but you can switch between them and be connected to one network Simcard at any one time only.


How To Install the Rebel Lite Dual sim Adapter

Take out the Network Simcard from your Iphone 4 with opener tool supplied by Apple.

Step 1

double1

Enter a pre cut micro sim as shown in the step 1 picture and bend the FPCB as shown

Place your Normal Mini size Simcard in the Second slot as shown

Now you are ready to insert in to Iphone 4

rebel_lite-dual-sim-adapter-how-to-guide-step-04

Do Not rush Step 4 and slide the rebel dual sim adapter in to the Iphone 4 sim gate till you hear the click and then the sim tray is locked in to place.


double4

After full insertion in to the Iphone 4 sim tray this is how it will look and don’t worry if stick out by a few mm and does not fully insert

The first time you power on your will be connected to the Sim Slot 1 where the micro sim is connected.

When you would like to switch to the other full size network sim connected in sim tray 2 then this is how to do that.

rebel_lite-dual-sim-adapter-how-to-guide-step-05

Look for the Rebel STK Menu in the iPhone 4 under Settings /Phone / Sim Applications.

rebel_lite-dual-sim-adapter-how-to-guide-step-06

When you click on the Switch Number you have these options

And will not see a * next to any of the options if it’s the first time you are using it.

Now to go to SIM2 we would simply select that option by clicking on it and this would switch to the other network sim and when you want to come back to SIM1 come back to the menu option and select that one.

You can also set a timing option so you can automatically alternate between network simcards connected by setting a time in minutes.

rebel_dual-sim-adapter--top-viewrebel_dual-sim-adapter--side-back-view2rebel_dual-sim-adapter--side-back-view

You may want to be able to swap simcards many times a day as and when you need to use your other network Simcard.

On the other hand if your Iphone 4 is locked to one network then you can only use 2 network Simcards in the locked Iphone 4 that come from the same network provider or a MVNO that shares your locked Iphone 4 providers as explained below.

What are the Rebel Iphone 4 Dual sim adapters used for?

To save you time and money and hassle of manually changing network Simcards around by physically changing them.

Let me give you this scenario about using MVNO’s in the UK you could easily use Tesco or GiffJaff in your locked Iphone 4 that’s locked on only 02 with the Rebel Dual Sim Adapters

If your phone is locked to say one network only and for example it’s UK O2. You can still use and save money as other virtual mobile network operators often have much cheaper offering that share the same network code.

This allows the network Simcards from MVNO’s Sims to work and will also work on your locked Iphone 4′s.

At the moment Giff Gaff is like Tesco mobile who are a MVNO’s that run on the 02 network and is offering a very good deal along with Tesco mobile and their tripling credit offer.

They like other MVNO’s buy bulk airtime deals and resell on under their own brand. These network simcards all share in common the same network code 23410 which tells the phone to login to the UK O2 Network.

This network code is called the MCC Mobile county code which in this case is 234 for all UK network simcards & the MNC Mobile Network code which in this case is 10 for the entire network Simcards that run on the UK O2 network.

You too can check from the list here for other MVNO in your home country as we gave you an example for the UK and then be able have access to great deals by simply switching over to the other network Simcard in a few click that’s already inside your rebel dual sim card adapter

Unlocked Iphone 4 users and freedom of choice to use any network Simcard.

Can I Use other Case Designs with the Rebel Lite Dual sim Adapter ?

Yes you see examples below using popular cases in the marketplace.

Mobile Virtual Network Operator List MVNO

By Rebel SimCard Mobile Virtual Network Operator, MVNO No Comments »
Last updated : September – 2006

MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network) is a company that does not own a licensed frequency spectrum, but resells wireless services under their own brand name, using the network of another mobile phone operator. The first successful MVNO was Virgin Mobile, launched in the United Kingdom in 1999. Before this, Sense attempted to start an MVNO service in the Scandinavian countries, but failed. A similar strategy was pursued by MCI in the early 90s

An MVNO’s roles and relationship to the mobile phone operator vary by market. In general an MVNO is an entity or company that works independently of the operator and can set its own tariff structures. Usually, it does not own any GSM, CDMA or other wireless infrastructure, such as Mobile Switching Center (MSC) or a radio access network. Some may own their own Home Location Register (HLR), which allows more flexibility since multiple host networks could be used, and the MVNO appears as a roaming partner.
