i think wht he meant is without the ever....
any question regarding lock phones can be discuss in iphone for dummies tread/... or.... since tis tread is open...
anyway... i made my point....

bro, what do u mean without the ever?

the color ever u wrote bro...., im kindda lost to wht it means...

meaning i ever opened a new thread regarding aussie iphone but closed by moderator. What i had understood is that time aussie optus offer prepaid iphone 3g. However, in order to obtain fully unlocked, the user have to topup AUD80 and wait optus for informing the user by call or sms like tat.

The question is today i topup AUD80 but the next day i am flying back to Malaysia or other countries. Wondering my iphone will be unlocked as my iphone is out of aussie.

what if im already in malaysia with the iphone and my friend went back to aus.
is there anyway ill be able to unlock it in malaysia ? maybe calling optus from malaysia ? or get my friend to contact optus in aus ?

sry bro. tat i dunno. unless ur friend ever make at least a call in optus using the iphone. else the phone most probably will be locked.

I had search some info bout my question. Got 1 guy from indon got the iphone from aussie and unlocked after a few days in his country. Hence, i believe it can be unlocked while the iphone has been made a call in aussie, the telco will trace the imei and register.

Here's the glitch or should say procedure.
1. Optus prepaid iphone 3g--topup AUD80 for fully unlocked else is only sim unlocked like US AT&T.

2. Make atleast a call in order for the telco to register imei serve under unlocked.

3. Wait for 5-10 days for it to be unlocked, Optus will give u a call or sms. It is possible to be unlocked in other countries just if the iphone ever made a call in aussie.

Optus offer unlocked iphone too. Postpaid plan. It is officially unlocked from the box.

so u got the answer....

hahaha silly me

but if u bought it from optus....optus will unlock for u for free.....i dun know about prepaid...coz now australia telco dun sell outright purchase...all i3g will be purchase on contract....

my i3g was unlock by optus while i was in malaysia......

what i do was....inform optus to unlock d i3g then make atleast one call for them to register your imei number on their server... then ask optus to activate d roaming service........then wait for 5-10day and optus will send u sms to inform u your phone is unlock n proceed to restore your i3g
