Hi,

Don't know if you guys discussed this yet. But I was wondering if anyone got any news about unlocking iPhone 3G from U.S? Any news from the dev team?

Update warning!

Now for something a bit more serious,  we’ve explained about the pros and cons of applying Apple’s updates in the past and we’ve warned against the immediate installation of these updates without knowing what they do to your device.

This is indeed true of the iPhone 3G’s upcoming 2.2 release. Installing ‘2.2’ straight away on the iPhone 3G using the iTunes auto-updater could affect your chances of any software unlock in the near future (should one be found and released), so when you see an update in iTunes await our instructions first!

Alright cool. So let me get this straight. Reading the 2 posts after mine, can I assume that this place isn't the right place for people with locked 3G phones to get help?
*
Majority of 3G iPhone owners in this forum owns an unlocked 3G iPhone. Is not that we don't wanna help. Is difficult for us to help troubleshoot problems faced by lock 3G iPhones users as we don't own a locked 3G unit.

So, is tough to help and only those who use these locked units will have the understanding of how to work out the glitches/problems faced.

Cheers

For those of you using turbosim, I was being told do not upgrade to 2.2 as the current turbosim does not support the latest firmware on 2.2.

A seller told me that Quickpwn not successful- after 2.2 the phone will encounter no service. They are waiting for the new turbosim which can support the latest firmware.

The latest 2.2 will break your current turbosim.
Surprisingly I survived after 2.2 with turbosim but I am using pwnage tool.
Now I wonder pwnage tool will be a better option than quickpwn.

Pwnagetool does not upgrade the baseband. With Quickpwn, an upgrade is needed v iTunes to fw 2.2 (new baseband) before you use quickpwn to pwn a 3G iPhone. This will render the turbosim useless until there's a new turbosim made.

For now, Pwnagetool is the only option to upgrade a Locked 3g iPhone firmware.

nice explanation....

Nothing nice about the explanation. Is all in the Pwnagetool and Quickpwn thread. Read and you will understand and what not to do and do. Simple.
