    Default iPhone 4 data problem

    I need help guys, first, I'm using iPhone unlocked since 2008 3G, 3GS and 4, now the problem,
    Since I started to use the iPhone with my carrier the 3G speed always works fine, never had a problem since 2008, now since yesterday the 3G doesn't work I'm on 4.1, so I decided to downgrade back to 4.0.1 and the same problem I get edge to work but I turn on the 3G I get nothing, upgrade back 4.1 and the same

    Any help guys?

    Then you may have a hardware issue if restoring doesnt fix it. You can try setting the phone up as new after a restore if you havent tried that already.

    You're using it for AT&T right? Since that's the only carrier here in the US that the iPhone supports, 3G wise. Why do you need it unlocked if it's for the official carrier? If you want to keep the baseband for resell purposes, then use custom firmware but I don't see the need to install ultrasn0w.

    I don't think he is in the US if he had it working before.

    I doubt apple is doing anything. Something screwy may be going on with your unlock or your apn settings.
