Unlock Your iPhone Running iOS 6.x Using UltraSn0w 1.2.8
Step 1: As mentioned previously you must already be running iOS 6.1 on your iPhone 4 or iPhone 3G/3GS, and you must also be Jailbroken on iOS 6.1. If you are yet to Jailbrake your iPhone then please click the appropriate platform.
Step 2: After your iPhone is running the iOS 6.1 firmware and is Jailbroken you will need to simply launch Cydia from your SpringBoard.
Step 3: Once Cydia is open you will need to tap Manage > Sources > Edit > Add. Normally the Ultrasn0w repo is there but if not add the below repo.

Step 6: After Cydia has refreshed. Tap the Search tab on the bottom tab bar and search for UltraSn0w. Once UltraSn0w appears, tap on it and you should see version 1.2.8.
Step 7: When UltraSn0w has installed you must restart your iPhone. Once restarted, plug in your unofficial SIM card and wait for your iPhone to connect to your network.
And there you go, all done.
