Unlocking IPhone 3Gs

donal7

Hi All,

Looking to get the above unlocked. Can you recommend anywhere good in Dublin to get this done?

I phoned one place (€40.00) and they said I would need to leave the phone with them for 24 hours. I'm a bit weary of doing this.

Cheers

What firmware is it running, i will help you doing it for free, don't spend any money and certainly not leave the ph for 24 hours.

AFAIK 3.13 is not Unlockable at the moment, only Jailbreak.

Hey my mam recently bought the iphone 3Gs on prepare and it now being hit by data charges everyday...everyone in 02 failed to mention that. However the firmware is 3.1.3

I understand this version may not be unlockable at the moment, but I'm just wondering is it worth unlocking? For something so expensive - if something goes wrong then would 02 turn their back on you?

Just looking for advice!!

cheers

For data charges.
Go to setting-> General-> network->Cellulat data network-> in the apn just type any random word eg "Net".
that will stop any unwanted charges( if you don't want to use net).

If the phone is bought from o2 they will do the unlock for you legally, check the sticky.

thanks for the reply, if i type net for example,
how will that affect my iphone, apps etc? will i still be able to connect from wifi?

thanks a million

Yes you can still connect from wifi and won't effect any apps etc.

I have not met the unlocking specifications (150 euro credit)
Thanks for your help with the data charges!!!

I haven't met the o2 specs yet either...the software version is 2.1... is that the firmware version? is this hard to do?
