Hey Sifu,

I running into deep deep shXt i think

I'm helping my friend to upgrade his 3g phone 2.1 to 2.2

Before upgrading.
Iphone 3g FW 2.1 unlocked
Not Jailedbreak coz the Cydia and Installer is missing.

After upgrading
iPhone 3g FW 2.2 via Window QuickPwn 2.2
FW from the link on page 1
With Cydia and Installer now

Problem
No service with Maxis nor Digi

I read from some other thread saying that if you finished upgrading from 2.1 to 2.2 via Quickpwn and there's no service it means that the phone is unlocked via hardware instead of software. The phone cannot be used except as an iTouch.

Can I downgrade from 2.2 to 2.1 so that the phone can be used again.

Really appreciate some light here

this will happen to those who thought their iPhone 3G is so called "legally unlock" from Hong Kong, and in actual fact, it is those locked iPhone with turbosim implanted in them and sell them as "legally unlock iPhone"
To check if yours is a fake factory unlock see the settings page and the items should be Airplane Mode, WiFi, Carrier and Fetch New Data. In the fake ones "Carrier" is missing.

Hey TripleH

I've checked mine is MB500X which belongs to either Australia or New Zealand.

What should i do now?

Seaedge: one problem guys.. one of my friend's australian set unlocked, then update to 2.2, and now is locked back. does it happen that way?

Stringfellow: This was reported earlier on via Macrumors, that some of the iPhones that are unlocked via unlock codes from telco carriers gets locked back. The best solution is to tell your friend to inform the Australian telco that he had bought the phone from to again forward the unlock codes via iTunes again. Otherwise, they may want you to bring it in so that they can do that again.

This is the reason why Australian iPhones are not high on my preferred list. Having to retrace your unlocking history with a telco is troublesome to say the least.

Hello I need the pros here to suggest me the best option... The problem now is  my mum going to buy me an iPhone in Australia and there are 2 choices for me to choose from :

1) get the unlocked iPhone with 2.2 firmware
2) get the locked iPhone with 2.1 and yellowsnOw it later

which is better ?

If i choose the 2nd option where yellowsnow can make my locked phone to become unlocked, will this be TEMPERARY unlocked ? or PERMANENTLY unlocked ? Do I need to be constantly jailbraking before performing an update ? Or is it that after installing  yellowsNow my iPhone is unlocked forever and i save $$ not buying the unlocked unit that will cost me additional $150 in Australia..

PLEASE HELP ! PROS..

also for some information, can i still install yellowsNow even my phone is already unlocked ? what are the extra benefits I can get from yellowsnow that I found no in unlocked unit ?
