3G Unlocking "Yellowsn0w"

Your Lock 3G iPhone must be jailbroken before you can apply the unlock patch.

BASICS
- The unlock about to be released works exclusively with baseband 02.28.00. This baseband is provided by the latest firmware update (2.2) from Apple. You’ll need to upgrade to this release using iTunes and then use QuickPwn. The unlock will silently quit on anything other than baseband 02.28.00. It detects the wrong version and just quits to avoid any damage. Please double check your Modem Firmware setting in Settings >General->About.

Updates|

yellowsnow 0.9.6

1> Disable Sim Pin

2> Install yellowsnow from Cydia or Installer

3> Reboot

4> Done.

Do not upgrade when a new iPhone 3G firmware comes out. Wait until Dev-Team to disable the baseband update, or a version of yellowsn0w that does work with the new version of the baseband.

For 2.0fw, what i need to do is, upgrade to custom 2.2fw and no upgrade of baseband. Am i right?
Pwnagetool can create custom 2.2fw with old baseband?

Yes. Use pwnagetool. It will keep your baseband even you're on firmware 2.2.

I think what the pwnage team means now is that, older version can update to 2.2 with the latest baseband and still be able to use the unlock.

I think by tomorrow, we should see a repo for the unlock. But hopefully they also release a more detailed guideline. Cause they had always asked not to update the baseband. Then now suddenly latest baseband can be unlocked.

YES.. pls check on dev blog agian for the latest update.. It does mention that IS ONLY for latest baseband 0.2.28.00

Update 3: Now to explain the above screenshot. The soft unlock has undergone many changes in the last two days. The most significant one: the soft unlock will now be only for baseband 02.28.00 (the most recent baseband). Yes we’ve been advising everyone to avoid updating their basebands, and in general that will always be the best policy. Not every baseband version is guaranteed to have a hole through which we can inject the unlock.

Update 4: (a) The yellowsn0w Cydia package will be available as soon as our devteam member in charge of the repo wakes up to fix a file permission error. (b) Once it’s out, those users with SIMs that have apps and other menus on them will need to do that extra step we’ve been talking about. They’ll need to pull and reinsert the SIM once after rebooting the phone to engage the unlock. Even though it’s needed only once per boot, it’s still a nuisance and we’ll be fixing that ASAP. © You’ll know if you fall into that “extra step” category if your carrier doesn’t show up within about 10 seconds of the slide to unlock screen. (d) Yes it really is for baseband 02.28.00. That means everyone can use it now! (e) Happy New Year!

Don't eat yellowsn0w!

Hello all,

We wish you a very happy 2009!

We are about to release the unlock application, and we have some information that you will need.

    * The unlock application (that we are about to release) works exclusively with baseband 02.28. This baseband update is provided by the latest firmware update (2.2) from Apple, you’ll need to upgrade to this release using iTunes and then use QuickPwn to activate etc, there are plenty of tutorials about this.
    * The application is a small daemon that is launched on boot and also whenever there is a baseband reset, you won’t know anything about it (apart from the use of the third-party SIM) it is small and unobtrusive, there is no GUI, this is by design, you can ignore it.
    * You can add the application using the sources outlined below (coming soon), there are Cydia and Installer sources available, use whichever you are comfortable using.
    * There is a known issue with SIM cards that have STK (SIM Toolkit) application menus, these menus are usually items such as “top up” “get credit” etc. These menu items confuse the application sometimes, removing and reinserting the SIM fixes this issue.
    * The application is version 0.9, this is considered beta software, you use it at your own risk. You know the score.
    * The application is released on a non-commerical basis, do not accept pirates and scummy rip offs of this software. We license this software for single use and in a non-commerical environment (meaning you can’t charge for it). The techniques and methods used are not to be used by third party companies. We are watching you Jody, we won’t be so forgiving this time.
    * Direct linking to the repository URLs is prohibited, please only link to this post. We will be checking referers.
    * Happy 2009 and enjoy!

No problem. Just take your time to read and sure you will understand wan.

some extra news from devteam.

The iPhone 3G is used all over the world with all sorts of SIM cards, and we almost certainly will see untested and unexpected situations. If the soft unlock doesn’t work for you on day 1 (literally day 1, of 2009!) then please don’t panic or be impatient. This is new territory for everyone, so enjoy the ride as much as you can smile.gif

those with 0.90 can unlock easier.. but Dev Team says it has problem..
i tried 0.90 and 0.91.. 0.90 is better for me..

well for 0.91..

1. install yellowsn0w,
1. with ur sim card in the phone, restart ur phone (off then on again)
2. after ur phone restart, wait for AT LEAST 1 minute at ur HOMESCREEN
3. eject your sim card AND WAIT FOR AT LEAST 10 seconds before you reinsert the card
4. reinsert ur sim card... duh..
5. Wait for ~10 seconds (if cant work, on and off Airplane mod.. i didnt do this tho)
6. wub.gif

at first it cant work for me after i upgrade to 0.91, but with the method above.. it works..
but i wont chop off my d*** for this time.. laugh.gif

The good thing about this unlock is that it brings the price of the iPhone 3G down. DevTeam's effort should be applauded. It actually works, although with plenty of bugs. But given time, it should stabilize. It's way better than other type of unlocks.

How can you relock an already locked phone?

No need any custom firmware, just download the 2.2 firmware from here (could take some time as the size is 200mb++) and shift + Restore in iTunes. Use Quickpwn to jailbreak and add the source (refer to 1st page) for yellowsn0w in Cydia. Install the package, reboot, wait for 1 minute at the 'slide to unlock' screen and eject your sim and put back. Thats should do it.

The most important part here is Jailbreak. Don't use any custom firmware downloaded from an untrusted source. Who knows what they put inside that firmware. That yellowsn0w.net site is not from dev team so I might suggest avoiding it.

yea, im refering to http://www.yellowsn0w.net/ they give you a download link for the 2.2 firmware to download.
Once you have downloaded it, plug your phone to Itunes and restore (click restore while holding shift). this will open up a window that lets you select the firmware you want to install from a folder (the on you downloaded from yellowsn0w)

the link is given as http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/co...77_Restore.ipsw

Someone should create a poll on whether their telco/carrier can work without any problems with yellowsn0w. or with any drop calls or not.

I saw this comment on the pwnage blog.

QUOTE
FOR ALL T-MOBILE UK, O2 UK and VODAFONE UK CUSTOMERS - THE MOBILE TERMINAL FIX WORKS - NO LOSS OF SERVICE.

THIS WORKS EVERY TIME

Simply follow the instructions already given here after installing Yellowsn0w.

Install Mobile Terminal through the Cydia (listed near the bottom of the Featured Packages section)

Install SBsettings (also in Featured Packages). For those that don't know SBsettings is a quick-access settings menu which doesn't require the closure of running apps to turn on/off features such as Wifi and Airplane Mode. Swipe the finger horizontally across the very top of the screen to open SBsettings and ensure that the Airplane toggle switch is there. If it isn't go to MORE, and change the toggle to ON.

REBOOT

Go straight to the Terminal icon and open it up:

type yellowsn0w -c

HIT RETURN and wait until the terminal allows you to input more text

Type yellowsn0w -q

Hit RETURN and WAIT TWENTY SECONDS

open sbsettings with a fingerswipe and hit the Airplane toggle switch

WAIT TEN SECONDS

hit the toggle switch again to switch the radio back on

The phone will now display 'SEARCHING' and very soon a signal will appear.

I have tested this with outgoing calls, incoming calls and ingoing/outgoing SMS with no problems. This fix works whether 3G is activated or not and all 3g services work once APN settings are input.

Thank you so much to whoever came up with this fix, and thank you dev team, I'm sure you'll have a flawless app ready for us in no time


Source:http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/67797811/dont-eat-yellowsn0w

I wonder if this would solve the problem if signal dropping for some. Sounds like it might just be the solution.

Llallalalallala...ada pinned thread tak tahu baca..here you go.

The EDGE (E) and GPRS (o) icons in the top-left corner of your iPhone screen will always be there whether or not EDGE is On/Off.

Each time when reboot the phone I will have to eject and reinsert the sim card.
Only then the telco will appear.

Did you guys face similar fate.

The good thing about this unlock is that it brings the price of the iPhone 3G down. DevTeam's effort should be applauded. It actually works, although with plenty of bugs. But given time, it should stabilize. It's way better than other type of unlocks.

is better than using sim unlocker..... but OFFICIAL UNLOCK i still the best...

As of now... it's 0.9.4 beta

QUOTE
There is a known issue with SIM cards that have STK (SIM Toolkit) application menus.  These menus are usually items such as “top up” “get credit” “lotto numbers” etc. These menu items confuse the application sometimes.  Removing and reinserting the SIM once after reboot (give it about 10 secs 60 seconds (with v0.9.1) after you see the slide to unlock widget) fixes this issue.  We’re working on a better fix.  Update: version 0.9.4 fixes this for many (but probably not all) users who previously had to wait a minute and then replug the sim.

which telco are you on?

Did more reading, and those with problems. Check this out.

QUOTE
Method #1 (props to reda92 at youtube)
Quote:
1. Install yellowsn0w thru cydia, keep your Third-Party Sim in the iphone
2. Reset Network Setting "Most important" 99% success rate will depend on this. (LF: you can find this in settings - general and to the bottom you'll see a "reset" menu in which you can find this)
3. Reboot your inphone
4. Wait a little over a min.
5. Remove your sim card and re-insert it back in
6. Wait 30 sec.
7. Turn on Airplane mode and wait 10 sec. "This is important as well"
8. Turn of Airplane mode, you should see "searching" start smiling T-Mobile carrier will start appearing.
9. Start make call!
a slightly different method for this worked for me the 2nd time.
differences were: I had everything like 3G, edge, wifi, and ssh off through sbsettings, I didn't pop out my sim, and at step 4 I didn't unlock the unlock screen but let it wait at it for 1-2 minutes


Method #2 Another and props to admin at mobiletechaddicts site:
Quote:
Ok I followed the instruction given and I could not
admin | January 1, 2009

Ok I followed the instruction given and I could not get it to work, then I followed these instructions and everything worked perfectly and my iPhone 3G was running on vodafone, no signal drops, perfect, so if you are having problems follow this procedure:-

1. Download and install BossPrefs and Yellowsn0w via Cydia
2. Disable all Functions with BossPrefs (don´t worry if you can´t disable EDGE)
3. Reboot your Phone with BossPrefs (not in the normally way - important !)
4. Wait 1.30 min when you see the Lockscreen
5. Take out your Sim and insert it.
6. Wait a moment
7. Go on Settings and Turn on the flight mode
8. Turn off Flight Mode
9. All should now be unlocked
Basically another variation of the above method.

Method #3: (props to a user at the devteam blog comments)
Quote:
Please try out this :
1. Download and install BossPrefs and Yellowsn0w via Cydia
2. Disable all Functions with BossPrefs (don´t worry if you can´t disable EDGE)
3. Reboot ypur Phone with BossPrefs (not in the normally way - important !)
4. Wait 1.30 min when you see the Lockscreen
5. Take out your Sim and insert it.
6. Wait a moment
7. Go on Settings and Turn on the fly mode
8. Turn off Fly Mode
9. take out t-mobile sims
10.put in at&t sims for 1minute
11. take out AT&T sims card
12. put in T-mobile Sims
13. USA t-mobile are you HAPPY !!!!

last, method #4 for now (props to Deli_gt at hackint0sh):

Quote:
f done exactly as told it works for most of the user.

1. recover your iphone to 2.2 with bb 2.28.00 affter ready close itunes dont sync, activate or nothing just close it!!!

2. quickpwn it with installer and cydia installed

3. when phone is ready connect to wifi,got to cydia, when opend for the first time ignore the update for cydia
and install first mobileterminal and affter sbsettings from cydia.

4. turn off data roaming and 3g connection from settings !!!!!

5. install yellowsn0w from installer affter adding the source yellowsn0w.com offcource

5. slide ur finger from top left to right on the screen to get sbsettings open

6. press power button from sbsettings and from the popup restart button.

7. when phone is reset wait for 20-30 secs and go to mobile terminal

8.
Go to terminal
type yellowsn0w -c
type yellowsn0w -q
airplane mode on
airplane mode off

if you get "open: Recource busy" just repeat the command where you got it from.
if command yellowsn0w -q keeps loading for more than 20sec and your terminal looks similar to pics from Flickr: deli_gt's Photostream move to next step.

9. Go to setting turn airplane mode on wait 10 secs and it should start searching for the network, it shold find the network and everything should be ok.

If not
if it still show the four dots for the signal repeat the steps 8 and 9 but first exit mobile terminal totaly by holding down the home button until it closes totaly
if that doesnt work eather use
compination

go to terminal
type yellowsn0w -c
type yellowsn0w -r
type yellowsn0w -q
airplane mode on
airplane mode off .

That's how you get it working for 99% sure. i tried it in 3 diferent iphones one from finland one from germany and one from UK. UK and german wasnt workin in the first.
Until now many has goten it to work only by this method.

UPDATE.
I can confirm I got it allso to work with out sbsettings reset, just usual phone on and phone off.

UPDATE.
So only thing you have to actualy do is to install yellowsn0w from installer not from cydia. And after every time the phone boots wait 30 secs and make the commands with mobile terminal(step 8)-> and airplane on off, if doesnt work repeat the step 8 and again airplane on off.

UPDATE.
If you lose network use this compination and you'll get network back without reseting the phone

go to terminal
type yellowsn0w -c
type yellowsn0w -r
type yellowsn0w -q
airplane mode on
airplane mode off

Otherwise, its good if we can list down the NAMES of the people who have managed to unlock it and those who don't. At least, we will get to know these people and asked them their experience.

Not yet.. I have been reading the Dev Team blog and hackintosh since the day they released the Yellowsn0w. It seems there's a lot of problems.
I'm using a Turbosim solution and this is my only phone now. I'm quite worried, after I upgrade and if its not successful, I will be left with an expensive iPod Touch.

Currently, it seems US simcards have more problems as compared to the rest of the world. Not sure about Malaysia...coz it seems some of us here are facing similar problems too.

I have to make sure there is a stable solution before I make a move.
Is this too much to ask?

Update: OK - Thanks TripleH for putting the names of the Successful ones in your front page. smile.gif

Malaysia all can unlock ma..US still got problem. Most users here have either UK or US iphone or Austrtalia. So far i don't see anyone complaining that they can't. If they can tell which model they own, i will put it up also.

Yeah totally agreed with edoras here. I'm too 1 of the 'locked to AT&T' US iphone owners here. Currently i'm using the latest turbosim which in return provided me with no problems at all in signals, calls and sms wise(celcom or maxis).

Frankly the 'softunlock' released atm is still at the beta phase and i'm in no hurries to unlock either expecially when there are no way to be certain that all iphone are out of the known 'issues' after applying the softunlock.

We got the time and can wait. But this is just me so to those who successfully softunlocked their 'locked' iphone- congratulations.

no need to reinsert card.. juz ON Flight Mode for 10 seconds (make it 15 la..)
then OFF.. should be able to work la..

but b4 that.. i did something using the MobileTerminal installed via Cydia.. then after doing this method.. i dun have to redo it again.. just use the method above after using the MobileTerminal method..
which is.. (post again.. XD)

1. go into MobileTerminal (install via Cydia)
2. Type the following;

yellowsn0w -c (press enter)
yellowsn0w -r (press enter)
yellowsn0w -q (press enter)

(for the first time.. mine was done without any error.. so i don't know whether 0.94 need this method or not.. maybe someone here buleh share sikit )

3. Press HOME button to quit
4. go into Settings
5. ON Flight Mode for 10 seconds (at least)
6. OFF Flight mode..
7. Done..

Thanks fx2800 - I will try this soon... but I'm on Celcom.

My friend gave a slightly different scenario:-
1 - After installing yellowsn0w, we need to switch of 3G and "Data Roaming"
2 - Type "yellowsn0w -r"
3 - Reboot
4 - Type "yellowsn0w -s"
5 - Switch on and off the "Airplane mode"
6 - Wait and will see the signal.

It seems there are too many combinations...

See --> [Tutorial] 3G Unlock method that works

QUESTION: Anyone have tried using PREPAID SIMs?

using maxis postpaid here .. it works .. but wasn't a smooth ride ...
here's the list of things i did before it worked.

1) install yellowsn0w through Cydia ( including Remove / Reinstalling as well )
2) Tried all the various methods to get signals but coudln't get any. ( Reset Network, BossPref Reset / Disabled Services etc )
3) Tried command line as well

It works when i used was doing the follwing: ( just a list , not in sequence though )
1) Turned off 3G / EDGE / Data Roaming
2) Installer to install yellowsn0w.
3) BossPref reset
4) Reset Network Setting
5) yellowsn0w terminal commands
5) Turning ON / OFF Airplane
6) It will begin to work when the SEARCHING word comes alive smile.gif

btw, it doesn't work on my celcom non-3G prepaid though .. it was searching till No Service ..

Just keep trial and error .. Don't give up. I believe the model i had was the US model.

I'm using an AT&T locked iPhone 3G (8GB) for my Celcom simcard.

I have managed to solve it via this process flow
After installing the yellowsn0w 0.9.5..
- 3G and Data Roaming off
- Reboot
- Airplane Mode On
- Reset Network Settings
- Airplane Mode Off (...searching...)
- Voila! Got my Celcom signal..!!!

So far, its quite stable. In fact the 3G signal is much better than before (when I use turbosim solution on FW 2.1)

Earlier I have tried the method of using the "yellowsn0w -c" etc command but it doesn't work.

Thanks to Dev Team!!
I have been monitoring this progress since I bought my iPhone 3G in August 2008.

Guys, can please provide a full working instruction yellowsn0w unlock for DIGI, MAXIS and CELCOM so i can put it on first post. Too many ways to do an unlock is pretty confusing for others to follow as yellowsn0w keeps updating.

So a full instruction of steps to unlock for DIGI, MAXIS and CELCOM. Then me put up ya..Thankzz..

i have put up some latest unlock method on 2nd post and i hope it works. If not, do let me know k..

Have fun unlocking your precious.

The only difference is that I have disable the PIN LOCK. This is what others in Hackint0sh have also recommended. Please disable your simcard PIN and try again.

I tried but the iphone wouldnt allow me to do that! Somehow the function is disabled. The 'ON/OFF' button appears 'faded'. Why? rclxub.gif


And that means also I cannot change PIN. Haigh!

Actually, you don't need to Jailbreak the iPhone again. All you need is to reboot. Switch ON the Airplane Mode for 5-10 seconds and then switch OFF again. If you see the "Searching" indicator, it means you will get your Carrier signal.
Good Luck! biggrin.gif

what program are you using for jailbreaking? does it say no sim only after installing yellowsn0w? or is it imediately after jailbreaking? if it says no sim before jailbreaking then its probably your phone that is sick

Hi everyone,

Have pwned mine yesterday. Used it with DiGi and umobile, it's like clockwork. For other user that have problems try "saljikuning" 0.9.5, it's available through Cydia or Installer. Cheers

Guys,

Reading all the prob here make me "sikit goyang".. btw, i have successfully use the yellowsn0w 0.9.1 on Maxis Postpaid.

I do it on the day 1 i think - and update after 0.9.0.. Here is how i do it :

a. Fresh from QuickPwn - I have update to FW2.2 with the latest modem id.

b. Open Cydia - download the yellowsn0w 0.9.1

c. Return to home screen - Switch off and On back - pull out the sim and re-insert it

d. All is ready - The network is steady, the 3G / Edge / GPRS is steady.

e. Only thing is - i dont reboot anymore - coz - i have to remove and re-insert the sim everytime i reboot. all i do is respring from bos

have the people who are having issues tried the respring method that dizz_my is suggesting? its the same thing that has been working for me (for all the versions released so far, not only 0.9.1)

I have not done the respring yet.... Maybe next time if I lose my signal...hehe..
Now already satisfied with switching "ON" and "OFF" the Airplane Mode method.

Better than ejecting and re-insert simcard method... How can I do this frequently when I have already a cover/case for my iPhone? It will be troublesome to eject/insert simcard this way...

reporting success for Digi prepaid and Celcom 3G

however, not without some hardwork...
i need to restore, repwned, and reinstall yellowsn0w twice...

i strongly recommend "reset network setting" as soon as you installed yellowsn0w. then, take out ur sim card, reinsert, airplane mode ON and OFF..tadaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

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.

Just wanna give my feedback to yellowsn0w application. Its kinda tough at beginning ( i keep ma iphone with FW2.1 before and need to upgrade to 2.2 using itune and then just Pwn it using Quickpwn on Mac) after success jailbreak i try install and after that it shows n signal. I tried toggle on and off the airplane mode and its done. Now all are function well with ma iphone. Its worth for me waiting for long time. haha.. Great job dev team.. (Now its been 3 days my iphone working fine. Hope it will be always like this)

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.... cool2.gif

He is using Maxis, but the time I unlocked his Iphone im using my Happy sim card.
I juz follow the method posted on the 1st page of this thread.
When using his Maxis sim card, his Iphone cannot find any network.
but when once again using Digi method for my Happy sim card, it work flawlessly.
After that I switched back his Maxis sim card into,and walla!
MY MAXIS line come up shortly after that and his Iphone is revived!

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:

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.... tongue.gif

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.

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....

Why not use your 3G simcard into his iPhone and see whether it can get the 3G or not?

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.

Mine is also an iphone 3G 16GB from USA and I can use celcom's 3G. As a matter of fact, the 3G signal is much stronger when i compare with the signal using the now-obsolete-gevey turbosim.

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.

JB follow this -> http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1881
Unlock use Installer, because Cydia not work for me.

After install yellowsn0w from Installer, Reboot, Wait, no response, turn to plane mode and on it again. Might work.

I remember doin a lot stuffs to activate yellowsn0w.

Took me i think about 4 - 5 hours to experiment the different settings that you guys mention.

But like everyone is saying...PATIENCE is the word. Trial and Error i guess....hehe

Good luck to others that plan to yellowsn0w. Dev Team Rocks la...

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... hmm.gif

No point. They can't really do anything about it.

They can charge for providing the "service and support". They can claim they are not charging for the unlocking software itself.

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).

that is for when u wanna buy the phone,
i got quoted rm350 just to bring the phone for them to unlock,
lowyat 350, subang parade and carrefour rm250

and for the guys who are providing services like me, here's my justifications
if you don't know, you ask for help, of course there must be some form of token of appreciation right?

from what i'm doing, its just to get some extra pocket money and for the well being of the iphone community as a whole smile.gif

Why don't you do it yourself? It's so easy and takes like 10 mins for the jailbreaking and unlocking. All steps and tutorial are here and simple to follow. If you still not confident to do it yourself then look for hanxz.

It's your money so it's your choice.

there is nothing realy to worry about. if anything goes wrong, you can easily restore it and try again.
where you find them? google...
actualy there are three steps, first you upgrade to firmware2.2, if your not already on it, jailbreak your new firmware then you add the yellowsn0w repo to either cydia or installer
http://www.coderetard.com/2009/01/01/how-t...are-yellowsn0w/

the link i posted is a little old, the current version of yellowsn0w is 0.9.6 I think but the steps should be the same, you wont have to do things like removing your sim if they say that you should in the tutorial, I think you might just need to reboot or toggle the airplane mode

For the locked 3g version, its not advicable to upgrade to 2.28 baseband for unlock. There are many error and problems reported everyday (in forum) after some of the users upgrade and unlock. Might be wise to wait for the next release of yellowsnow before moving to 2.28 baseband. (my opinion) Actually there are some custom-defined firmware of 2.2 with the previous baseband available. I would suggest to stay with 2.1 firmware's baseband till the better unlock patch is released (just my opinion).

mine is on 2.28 with FW 2.2 seems to be working quite well. and i think other users who had successful unlock their 3G had no problem or whatsoever too. what kind of error and problem you meant? yellowsn0w 0.9.6 is currently quite stable and it needs the phone to be on 2.28 baseband to be unlocked.

I agree... there were some issues before but with the new version I have never experienced any difficulty

those problems are unable to receive sms, could not retrieve call even tho signal is on, could not use edge, and miscellaneous.

Yea, inevitably there are some users which able to unlock without any difficulties so far, but theres some experiencing these annoying problems.

what im suggesting is a very conservative measurement in dealing with the 2.28 baseband.

Does anyone know how to tell if a unit is "factory unlocked" or "yellowst0ne unlocked"?

Does it display anywhere on the iPhone?
