Sorry, i am not really clear about this..

Em... What is the difference between originally unlocked vs software unlocked iphone? Technically, can i upgrade the software unlocked firmware? Which one are better choice?
*
morning bro...how ya doin thr...
mainly thr r two types of iphones being sold in da market...

1. is an iphone which is network locked, for example if u buy it from At&T USA, u wun be able 2 use maxis, hence needing u 2 do a software unlock

2. an out of da box unlocked set, which u kal as originally unlocked, is unlike da USA model whereby u do not need to do any kind of unlocks...and can be used with any sim card...


for convenience sake, its better to get the out of da box unlocked sets...hassle free...

hope tis helps...
any bro pls spend sm time reading da pinned threads

i thought that i can get  my 3G version from HK, but failed, can't find any shop that sells one w/o contract. then lately when over to melbourne, heard that in Oz we can buy outright, but also spam. i wanna ask how about from USA? coz my relative is going to USA prob on may. anyone tried? and also is 3G version now able to unlock and JB? sorry for asking coz i m out of this iphone forum for quite sometime.

eh, if its ok, wanna check 3G GPS, i think it needs internet connection to use rite? thanks.....
*
u can get it frm usa, but u'll need sm1 with a ssn num...
basically a citizen of the states...sorta...
u'll be able to JB n unlock as long as u r on fw 2.2 for now...
but its best to get it frm here or spore, tats my personal take

gps wud require 3b but thr r certain ways to avoid tat too...smile.gif

u have mainly to option
1. use the maps app with ur data plan n navigate w/o voice navigation
2. purchase full navigation apps frm app store ie: tomtom MY, sygic MY, papago etc..---these apps wud work fine without using data

check out this thread for gps app discussion
