So can I do the unlock now and switch sims back and forth if needed later ?

Some discoveries made today which will hopefully help some others with troubles getting their IPhone to work. My phone worked perfectly until today, but when I tried to install some apps through Cydia such as Cycorder, MxTube and SwirlyMMS my phone lost it's carrier. Tried everything, and when I installed another sim - Vodafone IT - then turned off 3G and roaming, still nothing. Turned phone off inserted back the 3 sim, still nothing just got "no service" which at least is a good sign, turned 3G and roaming back on all went back to normal. So, insert another sim from another carrier, turn off 3G and roaming, turn off phone insert your preferred sim, turn phone on and enable 3G and roaming, works! Somehow installing apps put things out of wack. Try this, replacing sims etc., and hopefully things will work out for you. Hopefully these bugs will be sorted out by the experts, but I'm happy.

When 2.2 was released the dev team said NOT to jailbreak with quickpwn if you wanted to JB future firmware versions and you're on windows. So now that the unlock is out, (i have no plans to unlock) they're telling you to use quickpwn if you have windows? I want to jailbreak my 2.2 but would i be able to do it again with say 2.3?

It worked for me. I've got a 16Gb o2 in the UK tried vodaphone and Orange sims works great.
Thanks

with the lastest yellowsn0w application v0.9.4 installed to 3g iphone(bought from O2 uk), my China Mobile sim with or without turbo sim are no longer working. it was working before with v0.9.1 with turbo sim. HK CSL sim still working with v0.9.4.

Hi, for those of you with Tmobile U.S.A sim card that can't make outgoing calls, frozen dial screen, call failed, or 5 dots. The culprit is the sim card itself. I have two newer sim cards bought recently and will not work with my two iphones but when I put in my older sim card from a few years back both iphone work instantly.
-
Oh man, it crashed my 3 times and logo = gone, can't make any call even reinsert sim card and wait 10-15 sec

Big ovation and thanks to the dev team. i've just made it by following the instructions of upgrading then pwnage and it works perfectly on my O2 uk with either tmobile and orange. big thanks..........
one problem though, is there any possibility to break the " uk network lock of my iphone"?
please give me a clue if you have one. -
I got the signal working and it can easily pick it up after lost. the only problem i have is that i couldn't make a call. it always drop it as soon as i dialed the number. Any tips? My sim is FIDO and i think my iPhone is rogers. i have tried the -r -c -l, airplane mode, sim out sim in about a hundreds times and its been the same. i can only snd/rcv text and receive phone calls but cannot make an out going call.

Worked for three days. Finally I got it! Thanks Anton! Your ways is working!
1. Use BossPrefs Turn off everything, especially EDGE!
2. Reboot in BossPrefs, NOT BY POWER OFF BY CLICK THE POWER BUTTON!
3. Wait a while, about seconds, see what you got?!
4. I am happy! Are you?ps. 1. I am China Mobile and roaming in Canada. The local carrier is Rogers/Fido.
2. Download BossPrefs via Cydia.Thanks Dev Team! Great work! I don't need the TurboSim any more.

One thing I forgot mention:
I am using "yellowsn0w application (v0.9.5)"
Thanks for your attention.

Jailbreaking was fine on my iPhone 3G 8GB, 2.2, 02.28.00. After installed yellowsn0w, it always reported 'Invalid SIM' if I put in my China Mobile SIM card. It worked after I did a 'reset network settings' from the settings.app.

PLEAS HELP, Urgent.
Hi, I have successfully jailbreak/unlock my 16GB 3G iphone, works very good, no problems at all.
The thing is that now I got a new 8GB 3G iphone but I'm unable to jailbreak it, I did the upgrade from 2.0 to 2.2(5G77) using iTunes, it has also baseband 02.28.00.
My problem is that when I try to jailbreak it with QuickPwn22-1.exe the iphone reboots and gets me a screen asking to connect it to iTunes, the home+power buttons procedure never gets executed because the iphone shuts down before entering recovery mode.
PLEAS HELP, Urgent. Thanks.

update 8 is working very fine
-
love it. Thank you!!!
-
I should add that my AT&T sim no longer works. It does the same thing some people are having problems with (carrier for 3-4 seconds then goes away).
T-Mobile USA though, works like a charm which was my intention so I'll take it!
(16GB Iphone 3G with all of the firmware requirements)

does it not work if you have a pin code? ive done everything and installed yellosn0w on my iphone but when i restart it it asks for my pincode..
-

Not working after successfully jailbreaking and unlocking version 0.9.6.
My configeration is a Swisscom Iphone with a Kenya Safaricom (vodaphone) sim.
When it works, there is a COLD TUSKER here for any or all of the Dev team!
Guaranteed!
