QUOTE(icemessenger @ Jan 4 2009, 11:03 PM) It was fine last nite. I got the signal n I was able to send SMS n make call But after I woke up this morning, I got the logo "No SIM", n a small window pop-up, "No SIM card installed"... even until now.  Maybe you need to try eject/re-insert the simcard and try again. Are you using 0.9.5 ?

I only tried yellowsn0w 0.9.5.
Within less than 15 minutes, I managed to get Celcom signal. Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones... But actually I have read all the comments on Dev Team and hackint0sh since Day 1 for 3 days before I have enough courage to unlock it on Jan 3, 2008.

QUOTE(Buzza @ Jan 5 2009, 09:35 AM)  looks like anyone enjoyed the yellowsn0w.. Nice job dev team. I just wondering the user that says ( say no to turbo sim and no to locked iphone ) also hangin here to discuss bout this apps to unlock iphone 3G. I tot they also used the locked set too but flaming others not to use it.. Haha.. They have to turn their turbosim business into "yellowsn0w unlocked services"... I think the price of iPhone 3G will gonna go down soon after this yellowsn0w thingy become very much stable...

QUOTE(Buzza @ Jan 5 2009, 10:15 AM) Hope so..  Now waiting for the next update from the dev team.. Once broken considered sold.... Why update when its already Unlocked? I don't dare to that first... I have read many comments from people who upgrade from 0.9.1 to 0.9.4 / 0.9.4 to 0.9.5 and it doesn't work anymore....

QUOTE(dzerg @ Jan 5 2009, 12:29 PM) btw,if let say after there is something wrong and the Iphone have to restored back to normal (none JB Iphone) using Itunes, is the Iphone have to be JB and installed yellowsn0w once again for the Iphone to be unlocked? or is the yellowsn0w-ing is done only once? juz curious.. to Edoras: pergh..u already owned an Iphone but still there is a Ipod touch..Mac enthusiast eh?heuheueheu.. Yes - you need JB and run the same process again (download and install yellowsn0w). dzerg - I owned the iPod Touch much earlier before I chose to get the iPhone 3G....

QUOTE(dzerg @ Jan 5 2009, 03:09 PM) I juz yellowsn0w-ed back my colleague's Iphone 3G coz after reboot, it wont show any single bar of line. His is using Maxis btw.. rite now if he need to reboot his Iphone, he has to turn ON the Airplane Mode and wait about 20 seconds,and then turn it OFF again,and after that the Iphone began searching for line again. but sadly, he cannot use Edge or 3G connection.i turn the Edge and 3G on but the "E" or "3G" symbol does not appearing at all. At first I thought there are no any 3G signal available, but mine showing full bar on 3G. So I think yellowsn0w still cannot rectify how to catch the Egde or 3G line. Hope that dev-team can do another miracle with a stable and final version of yellowsn0w. I think yellowsn0w have done its job. Maybe you need to try again....

QUOTE(dzerg @ Jan 5 2009, 03:26 PM) i juz tried over and over again using cydia and installer,but not both at the same time. getting the same result again and again. also already restore and JB 2 times.. still the same result occur.. dont know why.. currently his Iphone is fully functional..but only for call and sms..but still none for 3G connection. Why not use your 3G simcard into his iPhone and see whether it can get the 3G or not?

QUOTE(dzerg @ Jan 5 2009, 03:30 PM) his Maxis sim card already 3G maa... dzerg - Just to double check with your own 3G simcard lah and see whether it works or not since you said, that you can receive 3G signal with your phone. Maybe something wrong with his 3G simcard. ParaOpticaL - My iPhone 3G is a USA set and I can use 3G and EDGE...

I do agree with Stamp, the 3G signal is now much better. But maybe this is due to th latest Baseband and firmware 2.2.

May I suggest to those who have successfully "yellowsn0'ed" their iPhone 3G to give some of their unlocking tips and see which "pattern" that works best.

QUOTE(dzerg @ Jan 6 2009, 02:10 PM) As for my experience yellowsn0w-ing iphones, one thing, the most important thing that one must have is PATIENCE... For me yellowsn0w-ing my colleague's iphone is really tedious..u have to try a lot of methods (i dont know anyone out there who just got lucky successfully yellowsn0w-ed an Iphone on the first try) before seeing some bar of carrier line appeared on top of the Iphone. It took me 10-15 minutes to "Yellowsn0'ed" my iPhone 3G successfully BUT it took me 2 hours to Restore and Jailbreak 2.2!! Its because Qiuckpwn for Mac OS 10.5.6 have problem. It can only be resolve if we connect the iphone via a USB Hub. Not sure how many faced this problem or not...

QUOTE(feizaiII @ Jan 6 2009, 03:37 PM) Should we report to dev-Team found of no.2 Jody? The Dev Team cannot sue if people charge the "unlocking service". But if they claimed the yellowsn0w is theirs or they change the code in a different way, most probably the Dev Team can sue them and make more money than the Donation (which the Dev Team decline to accept).
