    Hi, I bought a 3GS on ebay recently and it appears that it was jailbroken & unlocked. I updated it to 4.0.1 and then it said it was locked. I have waited for the new Jailbreak but now I'm confused. Do I need to get a pay as you go O2 simcard to activate the iphone? It was previously locked to O2. Doi then activate it and set up the Wifi to download the new Jailbreak? And then do i do an unlock to get back to using my Vodafone sim?
    Any direction greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    very helpful WR :rolleyes:

    yes you will need an o2 sim to activate it, any sim, get a friends
    then while on wifi, go to jailbreakme.com on the phones safari browser
    install the jailbreak
    youll have new app called cydia on your springboard, open it, run a complete upgrade when promted,
    then search for ultrasn0w, dl and install, this is the tool that will unlock the phone, there is a new ultrasn0w coming out today or tomo, not sure if the current one will work, or do you have to wait for that one !
