singtel set are official unlocked, u do restore and let itunes activate it by itself, the whole process is less than 5 minutes, after that only proceed with jailbreak

Hmm, for aus sets, i think u need to pay a lil' amount for the respective telcos to unlock it

QUOTE
Out of the box, Australian iPhone 3G units are locked by nature. However, the local network carrier provider can perform an authorised unlocking for a fee.

Apparently, Optus prepaid iPhones are extremely rare nowadays and to make things worse, Telstra does not sell them outright anymore. However, one can head to JB Hi Fi, Next Byte or Harvey Norman to purchase them. The downside to this is that the unlocking process will cost you approximately AUD150 per unit.


AUD 150x2.3610 = RM 354.15

U have 3 options :
1. Get someone back to Australia to unlock it for u
2. Buy a turbo sim << most viable
3. Wait for yellowsn0w dev team to crack the 2.30.00 baseband

Quoting from my previous reply :

Anyway which Gevey model are u using currently?

The latest is the Gevey 3G Plus 2 Version

QUOTE
GEVEY-3G PLUS 2 VERSION TAKING ORDERS

This is a upgraded version for firmware 2.2 and 2.21(modem 02.28.00/modem 2.30.03). It works perfectly for firmware 2.2 and 2.2.1 and  just like our last version for firmware 2.1. Finally it is ready to sell.

*We can NOT garantee that will work on firmware 2.3 or later. Since it is not released yet.

The picture took from a real GEVEY-3G PLUS2 sim.
And reviews from the net says Rebel is better than Gevey and can redetect signal after lost
