Ultrasn0w 1.2.8 will only unlock the following basebands:
How to unlock your existing iPhone 3G/3GS and iPhone 4 on iOS 6.1? First you need to have a baseband listed above on your iPhone. Go to Settings > General > About > Modem Firmware to check.
If your baseband is listed, you will need to use redsn0w to safely preserve it as you update to iOS 6.1. Within redsn0w, go to:
Extras > Even More > Restore
This ensures you will be able to update to iOS 6.1 safely but retain a baseband that ultrasn0w can unlock. Once you’re on iOS 6.1 and jailbroken, just download ultrasn0w 1.2.8 within Cydia to unlock your iPhone.
