Below I will list you some of the most common error codes you will encounter during a iOS 5 Jailbreak procedure.
Error codes and problems during an iOS 5 Jailbreak process!
A common problem is when your iPhone 4 is stucked to a non-stop rebooting process, which you can understand it because it will constantly show you a black screen and a white Apple. In order to fix that, restore it as a new device but do not restore it to a back up, and then do an iOS 5 Jailbreak.
Sometimes a problem occurs when you are trying to install a Cydia app or an already installed app does not work properly. After an iOS 5 Jailbreak you will certainly install new jailbroken apps, but if you got a partial package due to the load of repos the applications might not work properly or at all! Just download it again and reinstall it after a few hours or days.

Hello mikiyas,
The Ultrasn0w application is included to this repository “repo666.ultrasn0w.com”. Have you add this source to Cydia?
Also can you tell me what error code your iPhone 4S is showing?
For your information, you will not be able to unlock your iPhone 4S with Ultrasn0w application. Ultrasn0w can only unlock iPhone 3GS and only one baseband for iPhone 4 (1.59.00). iPHone 4S cannot be unlocked with Ultrasn0w, but if you have an older device you can try to unlock it!
