Thanks thus far!

You need to chmod +x *.* inside your Unlock.app folder

Then, my friend came to me one day with the phone asking why he could not log in. I checked the phone out....turns out the bottom half of his touchscreen is bad (or so I think). The little "i" button can be clicked (at the top of the screen. But the "cancel" button on the turn off phone screen and the slider on the log in screen (both at the bottom of the screen) are unresponsive to user input.
This poses a major problem, because the IMEI was changed for t-mobile si hack. When I showed the "Geniuses," they told me..."well this phone has had third party software on it, it cannot be repaired because the warranty has been voided." I expected this, but I thought well maybe Apple is not just some huge bunch of pretentious a$ with a superiority complex. I was wrong, they say they can and will do nothing.
Luckily for us, the phone is not blacklisted yet, and the Geniuses forgot to write down the serial number.
How can I reset the IMEI without either using the touchscreen or using wifi (I have to use the touchscreen to get onto wifi)?
-Notes 1.1.1 firmware
-Everything virginized except IMEI.
-My AT&T plan has expired, but minutes are still good, and I have the sim still.
Many thanks to all takers

Brian, tell your friend that because of his mishandling of the iPhone The Digitizer has been spoilt, you need to hunt in the market and get the Digitizer replaced, without that you cannot use the bottom half of the screen.

Have now T-Mobile and WIFI back. Did the cleanup as suggested.
But it seems my phone´s battery gets empty now over night. (from fully charged to 10% in 6 hours, and wifi is sometimes not available again. After a restart (power on) and charging out of the red zone I have a good chance I get it back) I couldn´t find the BSD subsystem or the open SSL in the installer to uninstall ???. I have heared that the SSL could be responsible for the powerdrain. Any idea why my wifi is not stable adter power down?
cheers
Rob
...another strange thing. I seem to have lost all entries in the installer besides nullriver... (refresh resources doesnt change anything) but WIFI works and i can install anything from nullriver...
any ideas how to get the rest back?

As I've advised in my guide towards Phase 4, that you should upgrade you REEVIRGINIZE V1.0.2 to v1.1.1 via DFU mode. Do that and all should be fine, no need to use anySIM again.

ONE NOTE THAT MIGHT HELP OTHERS: I did have one hiccup in this process. I couldn't downgrade to 1.0.2. Whenever I tried, I'd get an "unexpected error (1)" in iTunes. After pulling most of my hair out, I stumbled across the answer. THE SOLUTION: Downgrade to 1.0.1 first, then "upgrade" to 1.0.2. Once I did this, the rest of this guide worked like a charm. I'm at 1.1.1 with T-Mobile, and lovin' it!

If your receiving a error (1) you dont need to downgrade to v1.0.1, just uninstall iTunes and delete the iTunes folder from Program Files.. Document & Settings/Application Data etc. Reboot your Pc and install the latest version. All should be fine :-)

After installing
OpenSSH via Installer 3.0x you should click the [>] blue arrow next to your WiFi name, it will show you a IP address 192.168.xx.xx, if you've entered this IP into WinSCP, it will go ahead of "Connection Timed Out"

Very good guide!
although...
Can anyone help.
I've reached phase 3.5, dl the file and followed the steps to update with itunes. when I open the fle I have these:
a folder named Firmware
022-3602-17.dmg
022-3629-9.dmg
022-3630-9.dmg
kernelcache.release.s5l8900xrb
and a quicktime ref called "Restore"
Thing is which one of these is the firmware 111 to be select through itunes.
'm using xp dunno if it would help.
.. or should i do it all over and stop somewhere so i can use the ibrickr 1.0.2 to unlock.
thanks

After downloading the .ipsw v1.1.1 firmware file, once you've done the steps for DFU mode, you will see the restore mode on iTunes. Hold SHIFT + Restore button and point it towards the v1.1.1 firmware file and it's done.

im starting to think that my iphone is permanently bricked because nothin seems to repair the IMEI.
it was originally 1.0.2, bought it unlocked with anysim, then i followed a guide to virginize and can upgrade but when i applied the 1.1.1 my IMEI changed and theres where all my journey started and seems that the end is going to be sad and bad.

Put your original SIM in the phone and follow the Phase 2.5 and unlock via
UNLOCK.APP then follow the remaining Phases of the guide and you should be fine.

it will tell you that there is no process because virginator already did unload it
rerun:
"cd /usr/bin/virginizer_pack"
"chmod +x virginator.sh"
"./virginator.sh"
follow the on-screen prompts and everything should go fine..
Perhaps you wanna add this onto your troubleshooting guide..
This is my second baseband reset so im not quite sure why i got the error..
Everything went fine on the first one..

You probably should skip the part when it asks you to Backup by selecting the options yes/no.
