The iPhone Dev-Team has released the updated version of carrier unlocking tool called Ultrasn0w which can unlock the latest iOS 4.2.1 and 4.1 firmware on iPhone 3GS and 3G on basebands later than 05.13.04. Since iPhone 4 has different baseband OS, It’ll take a little while longer for the Dev Team to unlock it on the latest firmware.
Follow the instructions posted below to unlock your iPhone 3GS or 3G on iOS 4.2.1.
How to: Update iPhone 3GS & 3G to 06.15.00 Baseband for Unlock:
