the new iphone is ona differnt channel and will not work no matter what it is the chip set it has nothing to do with being unlocked.

why do you think the old iphone costs more than a new one?

just buy the old one or go to att simple as that

what do you mean? are you saying the unlock is impossible?

in my case 3g doesn't matter. i want to use this phone here (tmobil prepaid), korea (3g), and thailand (i believe 1800) so ill be set.

iphone is a quad band phone (850,900,1800,1900), it can be used anywhere in the world once it's unlocked.

to the OP,
the differences between 2g and 3g iphones are 3g and gps, since you will be using it on tmobile, you might as well get the 2g since you wont be able to use 3g network on tmobile and gps needs internet to access google map.

^ yes i am aware of that but like i said in my case i go to korea alot (every summer) and now thailand too. the old iphone will work in thailand but not in korea as in korea everything is 3g network down there.

Youtube has lots of videos that go step by step.

hl0m4n · 08-26-2008, 08:50 AM

you have an unlocked 3g? sim tool?

AW335TT · 08-26-2008, 12:28 PM

To be honest my brother did it for me. I'll ask him how he did it once he gets home.

hl0m4n · 09-28-2008, 09:20 PM

the dev team is still working on the 3g unlock along with the new ipod touch jailbreak. can't the dev team just buy an unlocked phone (italy/china) take it apart and study that and just work with it for an unlock?

and for sim unlocks after reading this its a no no: http://mytriniphone.com/blog/2008/08...ck-do-not-buy/

the dev team is still making progress on the 3g unlock but my question is, if they got the regular quad baseband unlocked why don't they release that and release the 3g baseband when completed?

hl0m4n · 10-18-2008, 11:59 AM

yay more progress this week on the baseband

hl0m4n · 10-26-2008, 09:28 PM

Don't confuse jailbreaking with unlocking.
