Correct. We are talking an "old" iPhone 2G, right?

I need to be able to use another sim card in this phone so when do you insert the new sim card, before or after Quickpwn?

Put the simcard you want to use later in your iPhone then let Quickpwn do it's job. Well, you dont have to, but I always do ;-)

Also is there a way to ACTIVATE the iphone without jailbreaking or unlocking?

Nope.

Yes this is a 2G


Is the Installer App still a good program even though Cyndia is open source and popular?

I would go for Cydia, much more apps to get there.

Cydia needs some more apps. More apps that were in Installer prior to 2.0. I miss alot of them.

I read that if your iphone was already jailbroke and unlocked 2.0.2 then if you wanted to go to 2.1 to just let itunes do it for you! Is that right?

I thought you had to re-pwn it each version..



Another question about that... If I do re-pwn my iphone won't I lose all my 3rd party apps and data? Is there a better way?
