Bought iPhone 3 few days ago
I jailbroke and Unlocked it to use for t-mobile
Now it looks for service and cant find it..
Anyone here have this problem, know how to fix it?

I think it has to do with Network setting, right now it says network not available, and when I try to change carriers it says "unable to load network list"

Any help is muchh appreciated- Im lost and searched a ton
Thanks!!

I think it has to do with the frequency. T mobile use 1700/2100mhz. the iphone uses 1900

What did you use to jailbreak it?

Mine works just dandy on automatic. Tmobile has free roaming, so being on whatever carrier shouldn't make a difference.


I use cydia. I have a lovely pineapple when I turn on my phone.

i activated unlocked and jailbroke with pwnge tool

its super easy and pretty fast

only downside is no gpsphone (gba emulator) when you jb with pwngtool on 3.1.3 so i had to downgrade to 3.1.2

but other than that its mad easy

faawwkkk...
I used f0recast and it told me I have
Baseband 05.14.02
bootloader 6.4
3g 3.1.3

It says I can jailbreak but not unlock..
So I guess thats why I have had so many problems.
Can I unlock if I figure out how to downgrade to 3.1.2?
sorry I know this isnt the right website for this haha
