Iphone 3g with 2.2 firm and baseband 2.30
Hello,
I just got my new 3g iphone today and it came with 2.2.1. SO i downgarded to 2.2(5G77) and the modem firmware(baseband) is 2.30.03. So my questions is how do i get my baseband to 2.28??? or how do i get this damn thing to work with tombile...
I am new and I really need some serious help.
Thank you,
K.D

You cant.
Until and IF the dev-team can crack and unlock the new FW and baseband. And your phone probably wont even pick up service now, running 2.2, cause the FW and baseband will be mis-matched.

No clue. Could be 2morrow....could be 6 months from now........
Maybe a sim-adapter will be released that will work with the new FW/baseband. But yeah, like Z said...no ETA.Last edited by cpjr; 01-29-2009 at 11:41 PM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost

Maybe I am asking a question that is easy to answer, but the stupidest question is the one that is unasked!
Since the hardware has not changed, why can't you downgrade the baseband?
Isn't it just software?
If I load windows vista on my pc and I don't like it (it's crap), I can wipe the harddrive and install XP.
Is it not the same?
I have t-mobile and my wife synced my phone with itunes to charge it and just clicked ok to the upgrade software. I am on 2.2.1 now with no way to use my phone!

There are hardware hacks that go over the sim card, they work but some of them dont last very long at all and break, and some of them lose signal while switching between towers. But at this point, there is no other way if you've got the 2.30 baseband..
Here's one, I'm not sure how reliable it is though, Unlock iPhone 3G - Instant Unlock any iPhone. Incl 2.2.1

I have used the turbo-sim with 2.2.1 and baseband 02.20.03. It works!

I’ve been following up all the discussions and guys, just chill out!
I pretty agree with eyepoper, Shaqa’s words are too mysterious and tell nothing. I believe, if he were to something, he’d published it to us and to the whole world!
I hope I’m wrong Shaqa, and you surprise us some day, but it’s really hard to believe man.
Anyway, sorry if I insulted you, but that’s what I think.
2.30.03 soft unlock is not likely to COME
Please try to make sense if dev team says they are not able to do with a team of more then 20 reknowed hackers and open codes and projects. How can a single person wrting comments on little blogs do this!
Now read carefully the situation:
Apple is going to release 3.0 firmware in June And they will show wat they are doing in firmware 3.0 on march 17 . So, firstas I said earlier soft unlock of 2.30.03 is very difficult for any team. Second, let assume, that dev team has found the solution but they will never ever release it before apple release 3.0 . If they release early then they fool team, and me mon my personal level thinks they are not fool and will Not release untill July. Coz they don’t want apple to study their new unlck method and fill the hole in 3.0. And remember 3.0 will be revolution in iPhone os and will be a major step. So dev team os considering long term approach,
So be patient if you want soft unlock.
Thank you
