But I know how to fix this bug. All you need is to follow my guide and unlock activated iPhone permanently like I did.

How to Factory Unlock Activated iPhone 4 After SAM in iTunes

Step 1. Download latest iOS 6 firmware.

• Download iOS 6
• Download iOS 6.0.1

Step 2. Connect your device to the computer and open iTunes
Step 3. Perform a back up if you don’t want to lose the data which is on your iPhone.
Step 4. Now, holding Shift on Windows or Option/Alt on Mac, click Restore and select downloaded in Step 1 firmware.
Step 5. After iPhone rebooting you need to activate your device after SAM so, insert original SIM card (Sim card to which your iPhone is locked to) and activate iPhone. If you don’t have this card you can try to do without it but it didn’t work for me.
Step 6. After iPhone activation connect the device to iTunes and disconnect it after 10 seconds.
Step 7. Wait till you receive the message that your iPhone is factory and permanently unlocked.
It is all you need to do. It worked for me and it will work for you. So if you still use SAM tool go here and factory unlock iPhone (activated) and use any SIM card and always update your device to the latest iOS firmware stayed to be unlocked.
