    Not really a work around but most libraries have accessible wifi as does McDonalds. In fact if you walk down a major street in most towns you'll most likely find a usable wifi hotspot.

    I know that's probably not what you wanted to hear but it's the only way I know.

    Picking up a 3GS this week on O2 PAYG with plans of unlocking it to Meteor. Have sourced a week 38 32GB in a local Carphone Warehouse, I presume that this is the most pain free way of unlocking one ? (Asides from buying a factory unlocked one)

    If it's a week 38 build, does that mean if it dies, I won't have to worry about re-jailbreaking it and re-unlocking it again ?

    Thanks again !

    yes you need to download itunes to sync your songs, apps, movies, etc. to check the fw: go to settings>general>about and look for firmware. then follow mixednuts steps

    Just a quick question? I've read through the thread and I'm just wondering, with a post week 40 iPhone, can you just unlock it without tethering? Not jailbreak, mind, just unlock it to a different network.

    Apologies if this is a silly question, I'm not the best at these things!

    Yup, just got a week 38 iPhone from Santa. Had it jailbroken, unlocked and working on a Meteor sim in minutes. Have turned it on and off and no problems !

    Thats the wifi password on your home network. Nobody can tell you that except whoever set it up for you.

    you can get it by going to your router. if you have a wired connection, type the ip address of the router in firefox or internet explorer. click wireless and youre gonna see your wep key. put it in your itouch.

    Hi, I updated me iphone 2g to 3.1.2 with Blackrain/ bootneuter. Everything works fine except the youtube app, which says ,cannot connect to youtube.

    I seached the web and installed a new package source - http://cydia.iphoneil.net. It says to search for a "push fix" app but it doesnt seem to be there anymore.

    Was just wondering if anyone had this problem and managed to fix it, cheers!

    I don't understand unlocking the ipod touch...? You can't put a sim in it so what does unlocking it do? And does it void the warrenty? Can it potentially damage your ipod if done uncorrectly?

    Thanks, an iPod n00b:o

    Correct you don't need to unlock a iPod touch.
    I think whoever wrote meant to say jailbreak. .

    Unlock= to unlock the sim restrictions and use any carriers sim.

    Jailbreak= to "jailbreak" the iPhones O.S to use 3rd party software etc.

    (to unlock you need to jailbreak 1st)

    Hope this helps.

    OK, cool. Does it void the warrenty or anything? Can it damage the iPod? Will it be unjailbroken everytime you connect to itunes? And where can you get 3rd party apps? What are they used for?

    Yes Jailbreaking will void your warrenty, but a quick restore before sending the device back for repair will remove the jb.( that's if you can )

    Reconnecting to iTunes won't remove the jailbreak , updating the software if Apple release a new one most definitly will.
    Jailbreaks are usually firmware specific , new firmware new waiting game for new jailbreak ( that's if it ever comes)
    If your iPod is newly made , more than likely you will need to hook it up to your computer to rejailbreak if it ever looses power .
    This is called a tethered jailbreak , it's the only available jb available for the most recent Apple firmware , it's call blackra1n , and found here blackra1n.com

    Jailbreaking opens up a whole new platform on your device with hundreds if not thousands of things you can do and add to your device , some of which cannot be discussed on this forum.
    Google is your friend ... See what is says on jailbreaking .

    is it easy to "restore" if I have to send it away for repairs? I'm buying a 64gb and for that price I don't want to lose it because I jailbroke it...

    The restore part is simple, just hook it up to your iTunes and hit restore.
    Only problem is if you have a device that just dies and won't do anything, you won't get anything from iTunes ( won't show up as been connected) to be able to restore and remove the jb prior to return.

    The warrenty is 12 months , would it fail before then ?

    Not worrying about it failing. Its just that last time I went messing with firmware, it had bad results. I was updating a usb broadband dongle's firmware and halfway through the installation my computer became unresponsive, leaving the dongle f**ked and unable to be fixed. It was not even detectable by the computer any more... Not even as removable device. Zilch.

    I have a first generation iphone (i.e. before 3g). I updated it to 3.0 a few months ago i think and have it unlocked and jailbreaked (bought it on ebay from the US).

    Anyways I want to use an app that requires a newer firmware than I have. What program will allow me to update to the latest firmware and let me unlock and jailbreak it?

    cheers

    do i just update it to 3.1.2 even though that will lock it, and then use blacksnow to jailbreak and unlock it?

    if you read a few pages back, yes it will jailbreak and unlock the iphone when you update the firmware. fyi, blackra1n: jailbreak, blacksnow:unlock

    Folks,

    Just got a 2G (3.1.2), how do I go about unlocking it, I see a few conflicting step by step guides. :(

    Currently I have it back to factory restore from Itunes. Its sitting at a screen that says (Insert a valid Sim with no PIN lock to activate iPhone)

    Another source for pusfix and youtube fix.

    cydia.pushfix.info they have 3 youtube fixes, you are advised to try them one at a time. I ran this yesterday on a friends 3GS (3.1.2 new baseband). The youtube fix#1 was all that was required.

    Might help someone.

    Hi guys,

    I have an iPhone 3GS 3.0, jailbroken and unlocked using ultrasn0w. I want to upgrade this to the latest firmware, but keep it unlocked.

    Can I just use pwnage tool or blackra1n to upgrade straight to 3.1.2, or do I need to apply each patch in sequence?

    afaik you can go straight to 3.1.2 and if you use pwnage tool you don't need to use blackra1n. You just create your custom firmware and restore from it.

    Am on 3.0 myself and was looking into doing similar but there is nothing in the 3.1.2 upgrade to tempt me so i just left it.

    Thanks

    Things to note....
    1.If you need to return your phone to Apple and they see it's jailbroken they will send it back .. Warrenty void!
    Solution : restore your phone ( via iTunes) before sending it back , this will remove jb.( that's if you can e.g phone totally dead can't restore)

    2.)If your phone is brand new then it's more than likely made after week 40 , the only jailbreak available will be blackra1n " tethered" jailbreak.

    3.)A tethered jailbreak means that if your phone is swithced off or looses power or app crash ( requiring reboot) , then you will need to hook it back up to your p.c ( tether) and re-jailbreak .
    Sounds scary but takes 2secs , with no loss of previous settings or programs.

    4.)blackra1n jailbreak is painless and takes about 1 minute to complete,Included in the blackra1n jailbreak is the optional unlock feature blacksn0w , this is the part that removes the sim restriction do you can use on metheor .... if you decide to use it let me know I will give you a step by step .

    Welcome

    I did have point no.5 in the above post , but it never posted ? .

    5.)Some people report problems with their wifi and you tube after jailbreaking with blackra1n .
    Goehot (the blackra1n developer) claims that the problem is Apple's (3.1.2 firmware) .
    Others have claimed this to be correct as non-jailbroken phones show the same symptoms .

    Instructions to follow if you want to proceed , but tell me what firmware the phone is currently on ...settings/general/about/version..
    also phone serial number settings/general/about /serial number .

    My reason for asking is I need to know were to start the Instructions .

    Double click on the "blackra1n.exe" on your desktop .
    Click "make it rain"
    Follow the instructions
    10 secs later ..your jaibroken.

    On your phone you will see a "blackra1n" App .
    Open it .
    You will also see "blacksn0w" run this , its the sim unlock feature
    Install Cydia (This is a jailbreak community portal ) .

    Hi Guys,

    I am thinking of buying an iPhone, as will be travelling a lot in February and would like to bring movies with me, etc etc....I don't know anything about iPhones though :D

    I just read a couple of threads here and was thinking of buying the 3GS 32 GB , was checking the price on the O2 website and it is 609€ (want to do pay-as-you-go rather then monthly bill). http://www.o2online.ie/wps/wcm/connect/O2/Home/Shop/Phones/iPhone/iPhone+3GS/Speak+easy

    Is there any way to buy it cheaper?

    Also I am reading here that it is possible to unlock it and use it with Vodafone (I would prefer that as I am currently with Vodafone), however how much would the charges be? I can't find anything on the Vodafone website :( ....these are the O2 charges: http://www.o2online.ie/wps/wcm/connect/O2/Home/Shop/Phones/iPhone/iPhone+3GS/Speak+easy


    One last question, how does it work with Roaming? Can I connect to the internet from abroad (Europe at least) and pay the same rate?

    Thank you for your help! ;)

    If your doing alot of travelling then maybe a factory unlocked iPhone is your best bet.

    Factory unlocked phones are sold in Belgium , Italy , Greece , Australia , New Zealand & others
    Basically the laws in these countries prohibit the carriers from locking phones to their network, so iPhones in these countries will take a sim from any carrier world wide .
    If your in a specific country then buy a pay as you go sim , slap it in , away you go .

    You can get an Irish phone and jailbreak and unlock , the jailbreak will be a tethered jailbreak , if your phone needs to be rebooted (loss of power , crash etc) then you will need to be near a P.C and hook it up to get it working again .

    Vodafone are doing the iPhone now (via a 3rd party :IOS) so thats an option also.

    Hope This Helps .

    Hi Guys,

    I was bought an iphone as present in the US for Christmas 08 by my mother. She got my the iphone but unaware that it wouldn't work in Ireland. Not knowing much about the iphone at the time and wanting to get her present to work so as not to disappoint her, I went to a phone unlocking shop and had it unlocked. It has been working fine since then and I've no problems with it.

    I also think it has been jailbroken as the 'installer' and 'cydia' apps are there but i never use them for fear of messing up the phone.

    I want to try to upgrade my iphone to the latest software update as most the apps i want to get require it and some of my existing ones are working funny or not at all.

    I have an iphone 3G, running version 2.2(5G77), model: MB048LL and modem firmware of 02.28.00. Is this possible? or should just continue on? I'd prefer not to end up with brick as i've grown quite attached to it!

    I would appreciate any help, tips or advice,

    cheers
