You need to update BB to iPad's one in order to unlock with the chance of losing GPS though. (read post again!). You can have great detailed tutorials at iClarified website.

Try to download FakeCarrier in Cydia. It has battery percentage as well and seems to be quite accurate as the ios4's official one.

Download tiny umbrella (google it). You can save your shsh using this wonderful tool.

If you need to update to 4.1 you can use a custom firmware that has already been patched with PwnageTool (however you need to find trusted sources!). This will allow you to go to 4.1 while preserving baseband at 05.13.04 which then you can unlock using ultrasnow.

If it is too complicated, wait for a few weeks until other tools or unlock are released.

Be very careful with them. Never give your bank account to anyone, certainly not to Nigeria. Once they get your bank account they will take all your money!!! You can report them if you are selling on ebay.

Baseband gets updated only when you update or restore on iTunes using official firmware. Currently for 3g and 3gs baseband 05.14.02 is not unlockable and for iPhone 4 baseband 2.10.04 is not unlockable.

To unlock (only if you have other basebands other than what i mentioned to you), you just need to download Ultrasnow in Cydia (wifi connection is prefered to download it). Simply open Cydia, go to Manage, Sources, repo666ultrasn0w(if it aint there already, add it), ultrasnow, install. After that your iPhone will reboot, then test other sim cards other than official one.

Pressing make my life easier will save your SHSH which will allow you to restore to other firmware version for which SHSH is saved. However you cannot revert baseband version even with SHSH saved. So it is only for jailbreak that "make my life easier" will be useful.

Hope this helps.

baseband 05.14.02 is not unlockable at the moment. You will have to wait till 4.2 firmware is released(which is in a few weeks it seems) to see if Ultrasnow(the unlock) can be updated to support newer basebands. Sorry mate.

However, you can jailbreak using either limera1n or greenpois0n (fastest and available for MAC and Windows) or use PwnageTool (longest and MAC only). Instructions can be found on iClarified website(google it).

Try using tiny umbrella instead. (see readme on TU's website for instructions).

I would not try that at all. Facetime seems to be working fine when you activate the iPhone with official sim card. If you don't care about unlock, just update to 4.1 official firmware on iTunes and jailbreak with either limera1n or Greenpois0n. I personally got iPhone 4 jailbroken with limera1n and Facetime working fine.

I am pretty sure most iPhone 4 are now at 4.1 with locked baseband at all stores. You can try to find a factory unlocked one or one that has the old baseband on ebay so that you can unlock it now. The unlock for the new baseband will seemingly be released when 4.2 is out which is in some 3 to 4 weeks now.

You can't do anything to unlock the new baseband. So either wait till 4.2 and unlock is out or try to get old baseband or factory unlocked iPhone 4 over the net.
