My first article explains the steps to activate/jailbreak and unlock a new iPhone to firmware 1.1.1. This article instead explains the steps to revirginize an iPhone which has been unlocked with AnySim 1.0 and most other unlocking tools apart from Iphonesimfree and AnySim 1.1

To revirginize.

01. Download the BSD subsytem.
02. Donwload the tools (virginizer_pack) to flash the baseband.
03. Connect the iPhone to WiFi so that you can access it over WiFi
04. Copy the BSD Subsytem and virginizer_pack to the iPhone using SCP
05. SSH to iPhone
06. Backup the seczone
07. Run the virginizing tools to flash baseband to the original 03.14.08

Now I have a virgin iPhone.

08. Using iTunes update the firmware to 1.1.1
09. Activate iPhone using Independence.
10. Jailbreak iPhone (this would be done automatically in step 09).
11. Install SSH on iPhone via Independence.

Now to unlock the iPhone so that it works on my non AT&T sim.

12. Download AnySim 1.1
13. Copy AnySim 1.1 to the iPhone using Independence
14. Run AnySim 1.1 and follow instructions.

Hooray, now I have revirginized an iPhone which was unlocked using AnySim 1.0 earlier and activated, jailbreaked and unlocked it with firmware 1.1.1 which works on my non AT&T sim.
