    Default for some luck ones unlocking 5.11.07 possible via fuzzyband downgrading

    There is a way to unlock your accidentally upgraded 3.x iPhones 3G, only if your 3G's bootloader is 05.08.

    Remember fuzzyband? If your 3G has bootloader 05.08, you can perform fuzzyband to downgrade your baseband to 04.26.08 and unlock!

    1. your 3G must be JB already
    2. install fuzzyband from Cydia
    3. run fuzzyband, if your bootloader is 05.08, lucky you, it will perform downgrade
    4. restore with custom ipsw and unlock with ultrara1n

    Why would you title it unlocking 5.11.07 when you are talking about only being able to unlock 5.08?
    If anything was usefull a thanks would be great!

    5.11.07 is the baseband version; whilst, 05.08 refers to bootloader

    Thank you Jedi Master, you have taught this Padawan well...

    Seriously, thanks, saw this post and decided to try it... I'm one of the lucky ones.

    Baseband downgraded and tested with my t-mo sim.

    Hmm but kinda like my 1st gen iPhone though :P

    Fuzzyband downloads your baseband from 05.11 to 04.28 or .26 or something.

    It's the only way to unlock your phone for use with other carriers - downgrading your software does not downgrade your baseband, otherwise updating wouldn't be a concern at all.
