3) Verify that your iPhone is genuinely unlocked
To check if your iPhone 3G is legit and is not a fake factory unlock look up on the iPhone under (Settings). The items list you should have there is Airplane Mode, WiFi, Carrier and Fetch New Data. As for the fake unlock iPhone 3G units, the 'Carrier' item is missing. If it is missing, you have been conned and if for some reason you already paid for it and there is no turning back, do not proceed to upgrade your iPhone firmware to FW2.2 as it will render your phone useless. A bit more info on this here: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/959711/+820

Need some advice here. I just got my Ip 3gs from Maxis. but I noticed I only have Airplane Mode and Wifi in items list. I failed to locate
Carrier and Fetch New Data. Does it mean my unit is not genuinely unlocked?

Is the iphone headset jack originaly got cover or the hole just shown like that?

Thanks!

First off, Maxis sets are officially unlocked. Only when you put a SIM card in, will you see the Carrier appear. Likewise, only when you activate services like IM, facebook, etc., will you see 'Notifications'. Fetch New Data is in the second page, under 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars'.

There is no cover for the headset jack.
