iPhone with any at&t sim card?

I have recently purchased an iphone 3G with updated baseband which was previously used with AT&T. I have jailbroken the phone with custom 3.1 firmware but haven't unlocked it yet.

I heard that 3G supports any sim card from at&t if it was previously registered with at&t. I tried using another at&t sim card but it did not work.

Please atleast let me know whether it was supposed to work or not with any at&t sim card or it's because of the updated baseband and FW?

What do you mean by newer sim cards? Sorry but I didn't get the answer.

How do I know whether the sim that I tried is newer??

Some of the older sims +3 years ago do not seem to work. Most of the time it will work with your sim

I have used the both and tried using 2-3 ATT sim cards but it doesnt detect any signal. Is their any unlocking for the sim also that we have to do??

Simcards are not locked to specific devices. You should be able to stick your sim in any AT&T phone and have it work. I swap between my iPhone and a Sony phone when my iPhone gives me issues.

ANy help would be greatly appreciated. Back to my search. Hope I find something.
