I was able to successfully unlock my 3GS 3.1.3 (Baseband 5.12.01), thanks you. I moved to Canada from US recently and was waiting for this unlock to come out.
I am able to use a Rogers SIM (GSM), but my Bell SIM (HSPDA+) doesn’t seem to be working. 3GS is supposed to be HSPDA+ compatible, does anyone know if the unlock is limited to GSM features?

dk June 22, 2010, 9:12 pm

found the solution, stupid me! I had the 3G off and it won’t work on Bell if 3G is off.

My phone started to work, but the data didn’t even though I have data plan with Bell. I was getting the error “Could not activate cellular data network : You are not subscribed to a cellular data”
After some digging I found that this was because the careers check if you have a iPhone data plan and if not they don’t allow access.

To get this working you need to go to http://www.unlockit.co.nz/ and create a custom APN. This link gives more details: http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=60216

Thanks for the unlock info. You guys rock!

Jackal_xxx June 22, 2010, 8:19 pm

Woohoo, unlock your iPhone 3G 3.1.3 baseband 5.12.01 now available in the unlock section, just unlocked mine on T-Mobile UK! You guys are the masters! just remember to disable 3G first and reboot to get service.

iPhoneHeat July 16, 2010, 1:20 am

Yup!

Who August 2, 2010, 9:57 pm

Hi there!
Help would be really appreciated as Iam a little bit confused with the unlock for the iPhone 3GS on 3.1.3 with BB 5.12.01.

I unlocked my phone with ultrasn0w 0.93 today and was very pleased with the results, however I have noticed that the carrier network logo changed at the top left near the antenna display even though I did not change my sim.
In the settings, the phone says its on another network though the connection is still established by my regular carrier which sim Iam using.
Before the unlock it displayed my regular carriers name at the top, as network provider and as connection provider.
As Iam currently in Japan and have a japanese iPhone the regular carrier is Softbank, which would be displayed at the above mentioned spots in the phone. After the unlock it says NTT Docomo as the network provider, both at the top left and in the settings.
Does this affect anything at all? Was the phone locked to not display the real network it is on until the unlock?

I can call, surf the net, get mails, have gps and everything, however Iam curious if Iam still in the same old network I used to be before the unlock or if I am roaming and have to pay to be on a net I shouldnt be.

Oh, and I have choosen to use my regular carrier, Softbank, in the network provider settings where you can choose. I cant choose anything else. I have the option to switch to JP Docomo but that does not work and on the other hand I had that option before the unlock anyway.

Please help me clarify this problem.

Regards

Hey so i got a Jail Broken Iphone that i found, i think its jail broken anyway because iv been doing it all day, just to try and use it but obviously i haven’t got the right sort of SIM Card, just got mine. So how can i activate the phone with my SIM without being able to get into the Phone, Would love some help. cheers

ryanu March 8, 2011, 5:44 am

Yoon, first of all..your statement is very vague. Kindly specify the following:
(1) did u buy off the iPhone from eBay?
(2) is it locked?
(3) is it an iPhone 3G,3Gs or 4?
(4) what firmware does it currently has?
(5) what modem firmware does is has?

Step 4 and 5 can be checked by going to Setting-General-About in ur phone.

Note: if you have Cydia icon means that your iPhone has been jailbroken
