How to Update to iOS 6.1.3 and Unlock With Gevey SIM


As you all know already, iOS 6.1.3 is the most recent firmware for all iOS 6 compatible devices except for iPhone 5 which has iOS 6.1.4 as the most recent firmware.

As of the time of this writing Apple is still signing iOS 6.1.3 and 6.1.4. 


It is NOT possible to jailbreak iOS 6.1.3 untethered, it can only be jailbroken tethered on older devices like iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4. Therefore, if you have an iPhone 5 or 4S running iOS 6.1.3, you won't be able to jailbreak it.

Furthermore, Gevey works best for a jailbroken iDevice, therefore, since only tethered jailbreak is available for iOS 6.1.3, Gevey doesn't function well and its not guaranteed to work with your device.

All hope is not lost as it is very certain that iOS 7.0 will have a jailbreak when it comes out by September.

This tutorial is to allow you update your iPhone to iOS 6.1.3, Jailbreak and unlock using Gevey for supported devices. Please read carefully before you begin your update!

This tutorial took a while to create and was tested for iPhone 3GS. It wasn't tested on any iPhone 4 but used research and comments of people online to assume that it works for iPhone well.

Note 1: The procedure to jailbreak iOS 6.1.3 only works for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4.

Note 2: Gevey SIM Ultra doesn't work well with iOS 6.1.3 so use at your own risk.

Note 3: iPhone 3GS old bootrom can be jailbroken untethered on iOS 6.1.3 and unlocked too.

Note 4:  Ultrasn0w works along with Gevey to make the unlock possible.

Note 5: If you are not comfortable using iBooty to boot tethered, you can use Redsn0w to also boot tethered too.

Note 6: If you don't want to jailbreak or unlock your device, just download 6.1.3 and install using iTunes, but  you must have an officially supported SIM to activate your device.
