1. On activate the phone slide to emergency-call
2. Dial *3001#12345#*
3. Press Call
4. Go to Field Test Menu
5. Choose versions
6. Firmware version less than 3.14 Ok. -- That's 1.0.2. Above that is 1.1.1 -- Can't flash back. Less than 3.14 -- you can upgrade to 1.0.2! -
I just wanted to pass along my experience
I "bricked" my iphone with the recent update - only showing yellow triangle. I then downloaded an older itunes version (suggestion I found) and tried to restore - IT WORKED. Restored to 1.02 then I tried to updated to 1.1.1 and that also WORKED.
All good to go. The older itunes version was 7.3.1 and it was able to restore me to 1.02.
This was not an unlocked phone, but it was mildly hacked. Worth a try if you cant do anything else.

I have iTunes version 7.3.2.6 and i never updated it ever since I got my iPhone, which is version 1.0.2 . Everytime I connect my iphone to itunes, it says that i have the latest software installed which is 1.0.2 . Even if i click the "check updates" button, it still tells me i have the latest software installed! Im sure never gona upgrade my itunes.

I have an unmodified iphone. I never tried to unlock it or change it. Apple's latest update bricked my phone and Apple is refusing to support me, accusing me of modifying my phone which I haven't done.
They may not be a monopoly, but they sure are acting like it... Apple is EVIL!

Many are clammoring about the update that Apple made to brick 3rd party applications for the Iphone owners everywhere who had hacked and installed 3rd party applications in their fones.However, to my elation I have researched most of the web for updates and read all sources and codes from different countries...you all are happy to be notified that within a week or 2, a new BREAK in the 1.1.1 Firmware and new softwares to unlock the Iphone with simpler application installer are being updated and made this very moment.And i am sure that the Dev Team is in their laboratory thinking of ways to have a reset to factory settings also so that this cat and mouse deal between Apple and the Hackers Worldwide will continue to flourish...unfortunately no detailed release yet has been made.only through my connections from hackers worldwide am I able to confirm that the projects of unlocking the Iphone easier despite new Firmware/Softwares from apple are in circulation.So just sit and wait and be patient.New improve applications and Unlocking tools for your iphone are on the way.So pass the word and update this site for future news and releases heard/seen/tried out there in the web...Much Luv and keep up the GREAT work!!let's make this the best Iphone for the masses. =)

Hey max,
At this point of time it is advisable NOT to update to firmware v1.1.1 if you have unlocked the iPhone running on firmware v1.0.2.
However, we should soon see iPhone Dev team releasing a tool to unlock firmware v1.1.1 for all those who had unlocked their iPhone firmware v1.0.2 so stay tuned @ iPhone Hacks.
cheers!

Hey I bought an "unlocked" iphone and the phone will work but I cannot use my itunes, it says the sim card I am using is not supported. The guy I bought it from said to uninstall my current version of itunes and reinstall 7.7.1 and I did this but still not working. Any suggestions please????
Thanks -
here is my problem:
i recently got a hold of an iphone, not 3G, and i took it to a local shop to get it unlocked. the guy did it perfect and fine and it worked using my T-mobile SIM card. A couple weeks go by and i make the mistake of updating it through iTunes and now the only lets me make emergency calls and has a picture of a USB and the iTunes logo. It still recognizes that my SIM card is T-mobile on the upper left of the screen. I have tried to restore it through iTunes but it does nothing and puts me right back where i started.
Does ANYONE know about or has had this problem and knows ANYTHING about a solution? please help.
