New from Apple 2G phone won't Unlock\Jailbreak
|
Okay I hope I'm not doing something dumb here
I have two iPhones:
iPhone # 1 I bought used on Craigslist, it was unlocked, jailbroke and I have not problem changing (up | down) its firmware.
iPhone # 2 I recently received a new 2G from Apple as replacement for one I had whose touchscreen had gone inoperable. I've tried Unlocking it with Pwnage 2.1 and iTunes (8.0 & 7.7) and QuickPwn 1.1. I've tried it with 2.1 and 2.0 Firmware.
Each time I complete the Unlock\Jailbreak it will not accept my TMobile nor my ATT SIM. It will accept the AT&T SIM when it has Apple 2.1 Firmware. With Custom Firmware when you put in the SIM it shows ... where the signal strength should be and no carrier.
This iPhone had never been activated via iTunes\AT&T and it wouldn't unlock. So I even activated it with my AT&T SIM and it behaves the same way.
I am a software developer by trade but I am not an iPhone, Linux expert.
