    I assume you need to unlock? Do you have access to a Mac?

    You should use the current version of pwnage tool to upgrade the firmware while preserving the baseband for unlocking.

    Well Thank You,
    But that will be a no, because i need my iphone 3g unlock, because im not using AT&T or Verizon. :-| :-/

    Since you have a Mac computer, I would recommend PwnageTool 4.2. When creating a custom firmware, make sure you select "Activate the phone", also know as Hacktivtation.
