my ismartphone sim is black and so far it seems ok.

but i do think there are problems with 3 on the iphone. the reception seems to vary a lot and the 3g data connection seems to drop alot too.

well correct me if i am wrong but isn't all iphone 3g is the same just lock to which ever that carrier is? now i notice about sim unlock does take 10min to work, idk why, but it was the same way for 2 3g i use with gevey, but the website said it may not work with some carrier, who knows, i think your phone is fine, just restore it without sim in it, then turn off itune when it is done, then quickpwn it when it is done, put your sim unlock in, then wait for awhile, 10 min or so. it should work fine, but i done US stuff, can't tell u much about euro, but it should be the same. good luck

I've used both Gevey and I-Smartphone and my opinion on both these is that there is definate signal loss. My mum uses vodafone and has a decent GPRS signal, I try the same signal in my iphone and get "no signal".
I used to have a 3 sim card in my viewty, my signal would often roam to the orange network (this is what happens with 3) but with my iphone this isn't happening and while at home I'm just getting "no signal".

I'm going to try one of those cheap signal boosters, but if that dosnt work in the future I might go for virgin sim. My only problem is that they are quite a bit more expensive than other brands.
