    Smile Iphone 3G 4.1 Unlock

    Hi, I'm currently a newbie to all this jailbreaking and unlocking. Just learned how to jailbreak it myself. Horray! Now, on to business. I have been reading that there is currently no Unlock for the 4.1 with my iPhone's baseband on 5.14...

    Would it be dumb (or smart) of me to downgrade back to 3.1.3/3.1.2 from 4.1?
    or
    Should I just wait for the ultrasn0w 1.0-2 update? So, I can unlock 4.1 on 5.14 baseband.

    All feedback is appreciated please and thanks!

    unless it's a very old 3G (as in bought when they were first released 2 years ago) then the baseband can not be downgraded so even if you restored to 3.1.2/3 the baseband would still be 5.14.xx, at this point there is nothing you can do for an unlock but wait
    In the end we're all just chalk lines on the concrete, drawn only to be washed away. For the time that I've been given, I am what I am.

    Awesome, that's what I was guessing. Thanks for helping clear it up. If you hear anything before myself, I would very much appreciate it if you would inform me. Thanks!

    You can always check the bootloader with f0recast. If it's 5.8 you're good to use Fuzzyband from Cydia to downgrade the baseband and unlock.

    I've helped 2 people with 3G phones that have been lucky to have 5.8. So try it out, it won't hurt to check.
