    Default 3G jailbreak activation

    so when i jailbreak... i have to uncheck "activate" so that i can actually have service.. correct?
    but if i uncheck that.. how is the phone gonna activate and how will i be able to use it if it isnt activated?
    i dont have an AT&T sim..

    If you are not an AT&T subscriber you use the activate button to bypass iTunes activation. This only allows you get past the "slide for emergency" screen. You still have to have a valid T-Mobile SIM card to use the phone part.
