[Turntablist]

Note!!!!! I turned off my phone and turned it back off got invalid sim crap again jus did a network reset started workin straight away

Just a quick tip!

[stewart12]

If you have Tmobile USA, wait until the Dev Team works out the glitches. Yesterday was spent tinkering with the unlock and trying to make and receive calls to no avail. It seems as though other carriers are working, but Tmobile isn't. We tried everything we could...installing, reinstalling, rebooting, etc. It ended with having to eject the sim in between making or receiving any call. For now, stick with the turbo sim until the glitches are worked out, if not, you will be carrying around a paperclip with you everywhere.

no one has told me if this works for other USA carriers, like verizon, sprint, alltel and such....??? anyone?

[iFrankie]

does anyone know if yellowsn0w will work with a SOU-1.0 (t-mobile) sim card?...

i got the unlock (texts and edge) to work but cant make calls... so it would appear that the sim card isnt the problem.... any help?

[reddawn]

dtrocker,

will never work for verizon as it operates by CDMA not GSM.

I got it to work finally after the 94 version. I have an old sim but I am not sure how to check which version it is. This sim always tell me I have a phantom voicemail every time I power up the phone even though nothing on the server. Upon restart the phone, all i need to do is turn the phone to fly mode on and off and it works again. No command line or anything. I am on T-Mobile USA West coast.

SMS works send/receive
Phone call works out/in
Edge works
GPS works.

Does that way really work?
Then it must be simple as he described right?

Ha, Tesco uses O2 network as a piggyback which is why it shows as 02. You do not need to unlock the phone to make it work

The iPhone, as well as ANY phone that uses SIM cards (GSM) will ONLY work with other GSM providers. Sprint, Verizon, Alltel, Cricket, etc etc will NOT WORK with SIM-card based devices. In the US, the only 2 carriers that use SIM cards are T-Mobile and AT&T.

Furthermore, AT&T's 3G network uses 850 / 1900 frequencies. T-Mobile uses 1700. What this means is that the iPhone 3g WILL NOT WORK on T-Mobile's 3g network. There is no software or workaround to this. The phone would need to PHYSICALLY have the 1700 hardware, which is DOES NOT.

I'm sorry if this sounds like a rant of some sorts, but I've been reading every post and every comment on this topic, and people seem to be asking the same irrelevant questions.

The iPhone Dev team has been working hard on getting yellowsn0w out and working for all of us. I am currently a T-Mobile customer, with a newer SIM, and therefore cannot make outgoing calls. But I'm waiting patiently because I know that this is not an easy process for anyone to create. Be patient, and before you ask a questions that is completely off-topic, go to Google, and search it first.

Thank you again Dev team for all of your hard work! None of us would be even close to where we are without your efforts!! Keep it up!!!
