Thanks. The instructions look pretty straight forward.

Also, a great big thanks for your other posts. With the instructions on how to root a g1, I’ve brought new life to an old friend…Continued good luck in all your endeavors.

Ed,

Just use the newer How To Unlock the iPhone on iOS4 and that will work for sure.

I ran a quick search to see if there was a response, but didn’t see if you answered a question earlier in this thread about whether this unlock works for an iphone 2g. I assume it does, but would like to be assured.

-thanks.

Put the APN in the Network settings…. epc.tmobile.com for access point name and everything else blank.

Steven B,

Where does it say to turn off the Wifi? lol
You have to leave 3G off if you are using T-Mobile (since the iPhone won’t work with T-Mobile’s 3G anyway, if that is on it’ll just keep trying to connect, fail, and you’ll have no signal).

So on the last step you had the WIFI turned off, well can you turn it back on so you can use the WIFI or must you have it turned off all the time? Kinda stupid, but just really wanting to know. Thanks!

Kelli,

Thanks!
Goto Settings, then General, then Network and make sure 3G is off and Data Roaming is on.
Then turn the phone off and on.

If it still doesnt work then goto Settings, General, Reset at the bottom, and click Reset Network Settings (do NOT reset anything else).

Good luck!

Hello!
Awesome website, VERY helpful.
But obviously I am doing something wrong, lol.
I have done EVERYTHING step by step, turned off everything i was suppose to and entered in the APN and done every step over and over, just incase i missed something but it STILL is not working!
When i enter my T-Mobile sim, it keeps saying its “Searching” then it goes to No Service. I know the Sim works bc I put it in another phone and it worked fine.

Here is my info:
Version: 3.0 (7a341)
Carrier: 4.0
Modem Firmware: 05.11.07

Pleaseeeee help me! I am going insane!!

K20Swagger,

You need a data plan. Call 611 and have them add a data plan.

Hello Liv,

You have to wait for the 3.1 unlock. This method is only for up to 3.0.1. The 3.1 unlock is still being worked on, but should be out soon. Just DONT update to 3.1.2.

Hey, when I do it, then put my sim card in there is one bar like yours then it just says searching… I can’t get it to wirk with T-mobile. Then when I remove it and put it in my old unlocked 2g iphone it connects to my Tmobile network with no problem. It is running on 3.1 version… Also since I have done all this then put the sim bacvk in & out of it several times and also turned on and shut it off several times. I can no longer even get my WiFi to even connect. But Our 2 Ipod touch & my other Iphone is connecting to WiFi no problem. What am I doing wrong? Did I mess up some setting? It says Wifi ON in the settings. IDK!!!

Hello Tory G.

This method is for the firmware 3.0.1 and below only. 3.1 will not work.
If you are on 3.0.1 or lower than just goto Settings > General > Network and turn off 3G, turn on data roaming, and turn off Wifi and then goto the Mobile Network Setting and put in the T-Mobile ‘s APN settings (found on our internet/mms page).

Hello Kaos,

Yes it does have an internet connection without needing an internet plan; it has WiFi, which works like a laptop. Just need a WiFi hotspot and you have free access.
You must jailbreak and unlock the phone (be wary of the firmware version as only firmware that isnt 3.1 can be unlocked using this method at the moment).
Yes you can unjailbreak the phone for warranty purposes by restoring it in iTunes (which will lock it up, so only do if necessary).
Good luck!

hey mate first timer on this site, nicely done though. just wanted to know and ask, I am on the three network and have unlimited internet package(fair usage) with that in mind does the Iphone 3GS Phone itself have the network free internet connection or is it a 02 thing. I know dumb as it seems I am new to the whole Iphone never had any apple products this will be my first if it meets my expectations. And how to I use my 3 network SIM on this 02 only phone without jail breaking it, and if I do jailbreak it, I will lose my warranty can I un-jail break it and restore it to original software and get warranty back for it if anything went wrong with the phone????? that is my biggest worry. cheers mate for reply in advance.

Hello Surfingboy111793,

Sorry, thought he meant 3.0.1 since 3.1 isn’t out yet.
There is no unlock or jailbreak for 3.1 yet, there will be most likely within a week or so after 3.1 is released, check back then.

Hello Bastian,

I have used this method on a bunch of 3.1 phones last week without any problem. This should work unless something changed in the last week.
Good luck!
