@anne, and everyone else.
jailbreakme.com will work on any firmware up to 4.1,it does not matter what iPhone you have if it’s a 2, 2G, 3, 3G, 3GS or 4. Since http://www.jailbreakme.com is using a small .pdf flaw in the phones “browse” to jailbreak and not the old flaw in the “baseband” it does not matter what baseband you have these days, only the firmware.

So Yes you would be able to use your wifi on your iPhone to unlock your phone.
Simply hook up your wifi and use your iPhones browser to visit http://www.jailbreakme.com and follow the easy to understand instructions there. Your iPhone will be jailbroken within minutes. You then have to use a program within “Cydia”, either blackRa1n (easiest) or any of the “sn0w” programes.

@Stef.
What I would do if this happened to my iPhone would be to find a “FileExplorer” program for your phone and then find the Cydia file. Deleting this file would delete Cydia from your iPhone and then simply jailbreak it again to get a new cydia. DO NOT jailbreak your phone twice WITHOUT deleting Cydia as this will MOST LIKELY brick/kill/fry/block your phone and you might never be able to use it again…

Any problems please post again.

iPhone 3G, baseband: 6.15.00, firmware: 3.1.2

I JBed using blackra1n, and everything was fine until my Cydia froze on the “loading data” screen and then kicked me back to the home page. What should I do to unlock or fix Cydia?

@Javi
Well, jailbreakme.com should only do one thing for you and that is to jailbreak your iPhone. (Make sure that you use your iPhones browser to visit this site (not your computer)…
When you get to the site you will have a slide bar saying “Slide to jailbreak” slide it like if you unlock your iPhone and it will do the rest by it self.

If you have any problems leave a post here and I’ll get back to you asap with some help.

Got it! Thanks brotherman. I may get back in touch with you once I have the phone… I noticed there are many programs to unlock the phone available in jailbreakme.com… any particular one you would recommend? I may send another message if I can’t get it figured out . Thanks again!

@Javi
The baseband does not affect your ability to unlock your phone via jailbreakme.com since this online program is using a flaw in the iPhone browser and not your baseband. It is totally safe and works wonders, Both me and my wife have got iPhone’s unlocked online (both 3GS on 5.14.02) I have also got a iPhone 4 on 4.1 that’s unlocked via jailbreakme.com.

Unlike other online services, jailbreakme.com is totally FREE and you can unlock as many iPhone’s as you want. You can also restore your iPhone to default settings and then jailbreak it again for free.

Hope this helped.

Henrik, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your post. So, having the baseband 5.14.02 will not affect my ability to unlock it? I just need to make sure before I buy this phone off a friend’s friend (he doesn’t accept returns) haha. Cheers!

@Javi

Javi, turn your iPhone on and make sure you have got access to internet either via 3G or WiFi. (If you do not have an working SIM Card you could use a WiFi hot spot or internet cafe with free wifi.
Go to: http://www.jailbrakeme.com and follow the online instructions, this will jailbrake your iPhone in less than 2 min. After you iPhone is jailbroken go to “Cydia” on your iPhone and install “ultrasn0w” this app will unlock your iPhone to work on any network anywhere in the world, and you only have to do this once.

This is possible on the iPhone 3G, 3GS and iPhone 4 with software 3.1.2 to 4.1

Hope this helped…

Hey guys! Just a quick question. From what I can tell, if I have an iphone 3G running on iOS 3.1.2, and baseband 5.14.02, I am NOT going to be able to unlock it. Correct? Thanks for your help.

bonejones: Glad it worked for you mate. Always nice when people understand what I wright.
However, the speaker problem you have is most likely NOT down to the software unfortunatelly.
I have heard about 1 (ONE) person that ever had the same problem, and that was a hardware fault not a software fault. If you still have warranty one the phone I would RESTORE the phone with 4.1 from iTunes and take the phone back to apple store on Regent Street in London were you would get a new iPhone straight away (maybe after 5-10 min wait). If however you do not have any warranty left on the phone or you bought it 2:nd habd from someone you could do the same thing but you would have to show a recepit stating who you bought the phone from (and if you give them the wrong name they WOULD take the phone of you, and you would be phone-less). This wouldl prob cost you in the region of £15-20 to fix but you could also take the phone to one of the millions of phone shops out there. they would be able to fix it for around £15-50 depending to whom you go.
But if you take the phone to one of the “shops” DO NOT put 4.1 on the phone…

But just to rule out that its not the software, you could restore to a different OS such as 4.0.1 or 4.0.2.
This would just make sure of that it’s not the software.
You just make sure that you follow the steps in my previous posts so that you can go back to 3.1.2 if you need that.

Hope this helps, let me know about the outcome.

(Hope I wasn’t shouting down the speakers…)
