3G Unlock Question

Hi everyone.

Before any trolls come along, yes i did read the sticky at the top of this Forum.

However, i do have a few questions.

I purchased a 3G iphone through vodafone Australia outright, the phone is mine. However it is locked to vodafone obviously. I am moving to Canada and obviously i love my iPhone and would rather not find another iphone when this one works perfectly fine.

Is there such a method to unlock 3G iPhone's as yet? or even a legitimate method of doing so via payment to the provider (or someone else)

Thank you for your time in advance.

To do that, you must jailbreak your iphone using quickpwn with latest software 2.2. Visit http:blog.iphone-dev.org for the details on how to add the source in Cydia and then installing and getting yellowsn0w to run properly.

That sticky needs to be changed. There IS a free software unlock available called yellowsn0w. On a Windows machine with iTunes 8 installed and .net framework 2.0, you can use quicksn0w.
Good luck.
