    The newest firmware, 3.1.2, can be unlocked but only if your bootloader version is 5.08, which is pretty rare. Mines had it though.

    Just wait for blacksn0w. If you start seeing very happy people on these forums by November 4 you'll know the new unlock is successful. Then you will have no fear of them giving you a newly updated iPhone

    I agree. But sometimes being with out your iPhone even for an hour tends to seem like an eternity.

    My modem firmware was on 05.11.07 and the bootloader version was 5.08 and i was able to unlock it for tmobile. I'm using it fine right now with no problems.

    Wow that's weird. Can you share how you got baseband 5.11.07 to work on Tmobile? Bootloader is rather irrelevant information in regards to unlocking. Did you downgrade your basband? Like me you have BL 5.08 which makes it downgradable (oh lucky me!) but yeah, I am very intersted in knowing how you got that baseband unlocked. Is it an American iPhone? If it's factory unlocked of course it will work regardless of modem forward version... I'm just very curious.

    Sorry modem firmware not forward (darn iPhone autocorrect lol)

    oh yeah I know what you mean. Left my phone at home on accident once and had to work all day, it was deprivating. Lol but sometimes the wait is worth it. Just 2 more days!

    Anniex423, if you have bootloader version 5.08 you can downgrade your baseband to 04.26.08 with fuzzyband thru cydia. It will check your bootload version and tells you if you are able to downgrade or not.

    I know, thanks. I was just saying you made it seem like you are running an unlocked 5.11.07 when really you downgraded the baseband because of BL 5.08. I'm fully aware I have a lucky downgradable phone. I just thought you miraculously came by an unlock that ran on 5.11.07 and was curious to know if it was true or just a fluke.
