Hi guys just get a iphone 3G today, just want to confirm again before i update to firmware 2.2.1

Now the iphone is on firmware 2.2 baseband 02.28.00 jb and unlock by yellowsnow using cydia

To update to 2.2.1 i just need to download the firmware 2.2.1 ipsw from first page then install through itunes and jailbreak using quickprawn then unlock by using yellowsnow through cydia?

The step above izit correct?

Just want to make sure it was safe by using this way

personally, i will still stick to 2.2 (even if i know what i'm doing)

there isn't much enhancement on 2.2.1 and i don't know if the risk is worth taking (in my humble opinion)

OK by my steps to 2.2.1 izit correct by using this way?

If you upgrade to Fw 2.2.1 using quickpwn may it be Mac or Windows, your baseband will be updated and you will not be able to use yellowsnow. You can only upgrade the Fw 2.2.1 without upgrading the baseband using Pwnagetool (Mac only).

I would strongly advise you not to upgrade or you may end up with and expensive iPod Touch.

as you said,
its a 2G, try restoring + jailbreaking + unlock, it should be fine after that

being a novice, do read up before u attempt to do anything

69001 isn't the part number. read the first post carefully again

if your back cover white, black or aluminium colour?

nokia2003 - details edited..sorry..am a bit frustrated on this..lol.. silver colour

Hanxz - can u guide me how to jailbreak it? since i am not able to log at all to the phone its self.. theres nothing much that i can so.. not even restore..

Thread Merged

Please refer to the first post of this thread to re-unlock your 2G iPhone again with the tutorial provided. Do read the guide provided carefully before you proceed. If you're not able or not confident to do it, you can ask Hanxz as he provides unlocking service.

Cheers
