There was only one bootrom for the 3G, did you mean to say that it is a 3GS?

Now its just stuck on NO Service. When I tried everything taking the sim out and putting it back in. Restoring the phone manually to 3.1.3 in itunes using Shift restore and then rejailbreaking it with spirit and unlocking with ultrasn0w from Cydia.

Whenever I turn it on it just searchs for a while and then NO SERVICE with a popup 'Waiting for Activation This may Take a while'??????

btw phone was at NO Service even before Jailbreaking and Unlocking and I dont know the Orignal Carrier for this phone aswell.

Sounds like it is IMEI blacklisted. Contact O2 and confirm, i'm 99% confident it is blacklisted as the symptoms match what I would expect.

You can also try a SIM card from vodafone or t-mobile, you should get carrier but be unable to make a call. If that is the case - 100% chance you are IMEI blacklisted.

Thanx for the reply!
Yes u r correct I unlocked a 3gs and a 3g with ultrsnow which are fine, this wasn't my fone so I didn't knw wether it was ligit or not.
Thanx again

Just adding, we successfully upgraded one of our previously pwnage tooled (jailbroken/ultrasn0w unlocked) 3GS on 3.1.2 with BB 04.26 - used Pwnagetool 4, preserved BB to 04.26.08, upgraded to officially released iOS4 - ultrasnow 0.93 = UNLOCKED AND WORKING FLAWLESSLY ON 4.0

I'm a loyal follower of the Dev Team, and try to use ONLY their tool's and instructions, and (KNOCK ON WOOD) never had any problems.

WOOT WOOT - All aboard the pwnagetrain to 4.0, old bb, and fully unlocked. Now all I need to do is get me a iPhone 4

i love it kwejewdekldfew dkfjewijfiewfiewkowkeowewdedddddddddddddddddd

thank you very much........................

any word?
Im stuck aswel with my Iphone 4.0 3G Jailbroken, but cant get the unlocked to work. Constantly telling me there is no service.
Once i JB the phone- the service says waiting to be activated.
I ONCE saw half a bar- but that ended quick.


SO whats going on? - Everyone is giving the same problem, with a ton of half ass excuses on how to fix it- no offense guys, you are atleast trying.

After chasing this for two days, i might go back to 3.1.2 aswell- but this is odd not to see any kinda of updates? Have they atleast Addressed that this issue is a BUG!?!?!

SubCool, I experienced the same problem. Once I upgraded my 3G to iOS4 I couldn't get Ultrasn0w to unlock my carrier, no matter how much I tried.

I eventually downgraded my phone back to iOS3 and restored my carrier service after trying everything possible. I posted my steps here:

I know it's not a solution for iOS4, but it at least allowed me to continue to use my phone again. I think that something in the new Ultrasn0w version just isn't compatible with my phone.

Hope it helps.
