Unlock iOS 6.1 Using SAM Tickets

Sam unlock is the best, provided activation tickets have been saved. The users who have them saved can unlock iOS 6.1 at any moment. If there is no activation ticket, it’s best to ignore this update or any other. iPhone 4 and 3GS users can go ahead with tethered jailbreak and restore their activation tickets, but iPhone 4S users still have to wait for the IOS 6.1 untethered jailbreak release.
