i'm not a scam artist, found this method to work great just want to share it. test it yourself to see if it work, cause mine work great. you got nothing to loose.. and do some research in the dev blog . click here Dev-Team Blog - Don't eat yellowsn0w! ...... read on the updates part for tmobil usa. i copy and paste the quote below read it .
If you are in the U.S. and are trying this with T-Mobile, you must turn off the 3G switch in Settings. Also if you are good with the command line, you can make it much easier by adding the line-q right after the /usr/bin/yellowsn0w line in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.iphone-dev.yellowsn0w.plist (that’s and advanced tip, hopefully someone will make a boosprefs type of tool for it)

hmm what can i say? i am very greatful to the dev team for takin the time to do this for us i do. but. ive went thru this installed yellow snow. i know i did it right because it actually unlocked my phone...i have my tmobile sim in it as we speak..i can recieve calls..recieve text and all..but once i try making a call..lmao BAMN service goes away!! all my bars disappear and he only way to get it back is to take out the sim car for 5 seconds and put it back in. so..i have to say sorry dev im disappointed. wellk appreciated but i think u guys shouldnt release a program until it works 100% thats why we got beta testers and such...i would have rather waited and have a full working program then going thru the hassle of trynna make this work. when it doesnt work 100% and yes my 3g is toggled off..and i followed all the instructions down to the teeth

Fully funtional here after 5 hours of reading. Calls in and out, text in and out. Edge works. 8 gig 3g, Tmobile USA. Orange County California. The main thing that did it for me was reboot in BOSSprefs and leave it alone for 5 mins, then airplane mode.

Seriously, openly stating that this unlock is a fail deserves a lifetime ban of any iphone related site and you deserve to own a nokia/blackberry instead of your iphone you ****.
Again, people from AROUND THE WHOLE WORLD come here to look for help + guidance. There is 36 pages in this thread, nearly every page contains one of you T-Mobile USA, only new sim card owners by the sound of it, posting inappropriate **** just because the unlock didnt work for you.
IT IS MISLEADING AND YOU ARE MAKING YOURSELVES LOOK LIKE DICKS, AND WORST OF ALL, ENTERTAINING THE STEREOTYPICAL VIEWS THAT THE REST OF THE WORLD HAS OF AMERICA = SELFISH. PLEASE STOP!!
Devs, how about starting a report form submission thread in the news, people strictly post back their feedback and then you build a sort of report grid out of it, like: yellowsn0w feedback
BUT ACCURATE as orange UK works for sure, and lots are missing.
That would be the most helpful thing for us, the readers, right now. Not a 36 page thread of misleading crap from selfish people bashing the dev team. Wankers.
UPDATE
looks like people are finding this link now and its getting some info on it, just needs some trimmingLast edited by reeko; 01-02-2009 at 07:08 AM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost

Tmobile USA
With v0.9.4 of Yellowsn0w I can..
- Send and receive text messages
- Use Edge network
- Receive calls
- Make calls
With the new version of yellowsn0w, once I make a call and the network drops off, I can toggle the airplane mode on and off to get the cell service back. I could not due this with older versions. Getting closer I guess..

How old is your sim card( tmobile/US/can make calls)
How old is your tmobile sim card? For those who are with tmobile in the US and can make calls pls post how old your sim card is? I lost my phone so I had to get a new sim card so mine is less than a month and I cannot make any phone calls however my wife phone sim card is over 1 yr old and I still can't call out. Everything else works fine!

Although I don't need an unlock since I have no intention on using anything but AT&T I tried this anyway. Worked fine yesterday however when I updated to 0.9.4 my service was going from full bars to zero bars to no service every few seconds so I completely removed it. It's still a bit unstable. Not knocking it since I give HUGE props to the Dev team for doing this. They deserve every once of respect.

Is this right, 3 network uk
Thanks, I put the devs team 2.2 release on my phone, but still can not get it to work.
From what I can gather, the following simple steps are needed:
1. iphone 3g 2.1, on 2.1 fw baseband (not 02.28) which was not jailbroken and was using a turbo sim (working fine)
2. the iphone is now 2.2fw, with 02.28 baseband, jailbroken and using a turbo sim. (no service)
3. Connect phone to PC and go to itunes, update phone, which puts the phone back to recovery mode i.e all music, videos, including meus etc have gone.
4. Follow procedure to take it out of recovery mode, disconnect phone from PC hold home and reconnect. Itunes opnes, hold shift key and select restore.
5. Should now have a non jailbroken phone, but still on 02.28 baseband. Follow the proicess to jailbreak, using Quickpwn and downloaded 2.2fw.
6. Once phone is back to icons etc....go into cydia and follow the yellowsn)w process.
7. The phone should now work with a turbo sim (using 3 network sim card) with fw 2.2 and 02.28 baseband.
Question: does the Dev Teams update allow any turbo sim to be used in the iphone (wether the turbo sim is designed to be used on 2.1 or 2.2)
Any thoughts on the above, as my phone is still no service and I intend on going through the baove process.
Thanks,
Ste
