I just got a text from o2 saying that my 32GB iPhone 3GS is now unlocked!!!

Hi

I thought you had to wait until 1 year before you could get the offiical unlock, could you please tel me how you did it ?

Thx

Dan

I am on Pay Monthly. If you are on pay as you go you can have it unlocked after 1 year for £15.
If you are on pay monthly then you can have it unlocked at any time for free but you agree to see out the rest of your contract!!

How long did you have to wait?
it seams like ages since i filled out the forms, can't remember the exact date

i filled out forms on november 10 but also called up customer services on november 11 and recieved the unlock 5 minutes before my first post.

i also got a text today which i imagine is from my form online telling me that my iphone is unlocked

since I got my iphone on contract I have had to change mine at the apple store twice, will O2 still unlock it because the imei number will not be the same as what is on my contract, the iphone wasnt repaired, i was just offered a replacement on 2 occasions

They should update the hardware identifiers in their databases to reflect your refurbished iPhone when they swap out the iPhone under warranty. You should have no problems getting that iPhone unlocked.

iPhone 3GS 32GB factory unlocked (3.1; Pwnagetool, Cydia, OpenSSH)
iPhone 8GB (3.1.2; Pwnagetool, Cydia, OpenSSH)

I guess you are having a systematic problem with your device. Try to contact with the network operator and apple service center.
