Weird Baseband Firmware Conflict

**KickHead** · 03-19-2009, 01:17 PM

I just recently purchased the IPhone 3G off eBay which is equipped with version 2.2 which i thought was unlockable and 2.2.1 isnt but somehow the baseband is 2.30 which to my understanding and trials, isnt able to unlock obviously lol. So the only thing i can do to unlock is purchase a sim adapter correct? I just bought the newest Rebel simcard on ebay so hopefully that works. Theres no other way correct?

you are correct

looks like they've upgraded to 2.2.1 with BB2.30 found they fricked up and downgraded the fw and stuck it on ebayy

you could always try to find someone willing to trade a 3g with the old baseband- maybe someone who wants a white instead of black, or vice versa-

Yeah, you got kinda screwed. Cant rely on the FW.....gotta know the baseband.

Yea i figured as much, well hopefully the updated sim adapters arent to bad and until theres a software unlock ill just have to deal.. appreciate the help guys.
