-get a temporary att sim card
-insert sim card into iphone 3g/3gs
-let itunes register/activate the phone
-do not update/restore
-unplug iphone 3g/3gs and take out att sim card
- get a sim card universal adaptor that will allow you to use your provided mobile carrier, like T-mobile

http://www.iphone3gsimunlock.com/
Update:
DO not buy the sim adaptor.
-jailbreak your iphone 3g/2g/3gs 3.1.3 using red snow 0.9.4.
-then once you have cydia download fuzzyband- youtube it
- it will downgrade your baseband from 5.12.07 to 5.11..
-use black rain/ultrasnow to jailbreak it once more, but now you can unlocke it since you have a lower baseband, but still 3.1.3 firmware from itunes.

  • Hey guys, sorry I have not been keeping up with all the comments. Check out dino zambas, known as D7. He has some great vids, that ,may help all of you!

  • Thk uja all a fro da viewsss!! yeye 

  • The unlock will be out soon. If it was asking for a contract, the phone should still turn on, without you having to enter information. check out iphone dev team for updates.

  • I'm happy to hear that, and btw guys, you can only use fuzzyband from cydia if your boot rom is 5.08, and if anyhigher, it won't work!

  • You can jailbreak firmware 3.1.3, but the unlock is not out yet.- use fuzzyband to downgrade base band- if you have boot loader 5.08. No, you take it out right when it goes to the home screen =]

  • Hi guys, read the description, and you can get an att card, or just wait for the full unlock/jailbreak for baseband 5.12.07 and firmware 3.1.3, next time, dont update firmware using itunes, peace!

  • Likewise affected by the "iphone emergency call issue". I have now updated my 3gs to io5. Will I still be able to fix my 3gs using an att card? Im also struggling to restore to a previous firmware version.

  • @kathleen251 I tried mine with unactivated sim card and it works.

  • @lovelurdy all you have to do is either reset phone, redownload it through cydia, or get a new phone number and texting service free through google voice

  • no clo im baying attanshing

  • Hello my iphone is working with internet, itunes, etc but when I try to use the phone it doesn't work I accidentally upgraded to 4.3.5 and now I'm able to jailbreak but not to use the phone do I really need a SIM adapter or is there any other way around it? I don't have an AT&T sim card :( I've done redsn0w, greenpoison. and my phone application still doesn't work.

  • You'll have to hactivate it with redsn0w

  • you're a moron
