    Thank you for your detailed explanations iPhoneHeat. I just did Jailbreak iPhone 3GS, 3G OS 3.1.2 with PwnageTool 3.1.4 (Mac). After that to unlock I used ultraSn0w but couldnt get it workin. My modem firmware 05.11.07

    What do I do to fix it?

    Cydia isn’t working for me, it keeps giving me error messages when downloading. (http://apt.saurik.com/ POSIX: Operation timed out) What can I do? I am stuck with a phone that isn’t a phone.

    I have unlock my iPhone 3G OS 3.0 BB 4.26 with ultrasnow. I can see that my iphone recognizes the network T-Mobile but I can’t make any calls nor received any calls though I have a full bar of signal. Any suggestions? Thanx.

    THANK YOU! Ultrasn0w worked flawlessly!

    OK. Here’s what had happened.

    3G running 3.0.1 Jailbroken with Pwanage and Unlocked with Ultrasn0w: Cydia became unusable. A few months later the iPhone started running very slowly.

    Restored in iTunes.. ipsw 3.0.1 A700

    Launched Pwanage 3.0 to “cook” the ipsw. Pwanage couldn’t recognize the ipsw file. I had to “cook” ipsw 3.0.7.. WTF?

    Anyways I was able to JB/Unlock, but now it’s running 3.0 instead of 3.0.1.

    Anyone else experiencing this?

    Thnx,
    AM
