                Some friends tae these 2 wrong, jailbraking and unlocking
                a jailbroen handset could be unlocked
                i did it for myself and 2 of my friends 2day and all of them work fine.
                i used pwnage tool 3.0 (instead of redsn0w) to jailbreak the phone.
                DFU mode is not needed in this case you have to enter the restore mode

                Here are the steps:
                1- Make the custom IPSW file (using pwnage tool)
                2- Enter restore mode: (holding both standby and home buttons when turning on and releasing only stby button and keeping home button held till the restore screen appears "connect to iTunes")
                3- Restore your phone with the custom OS install file.
                4- add (http://repo666.ultrasn0w.com) in Cydia sources.
                5- Install ultrasn0w
                6- Restart your handset

                      "If you are using a 3G iPhone unlocked with previously released yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, DO NOT use redsn0w."

                      How come you tell people not to use redsn0w, that's what mentioned on the dev-team website, redsn0w can be used even if it was unlocked with a previously released yellowsn0w
                      please do your homework before misleading people
                      cheers :)

It appears only if u have an factory unlocked/ SP unlocked iphone. May be it was used to demo ultrasn0w. Dont expect it to appear in case u r using an service provider locked iphone. GSM Arena please dont misguide the viewers. I know it as i actually have an factory unlocked iphone. Had upgraded to 3.0 os within 12 min when apple had posted the firmware online in itunes. Though had to wait 2 days for redsnow to jailbreak it as using PC."

                          Mate. Read the bloody annotation below more carefully next time. It clearly says that "Activating a factory unlocked iPhone 3G S doesn't need any utilities of the sort." How the heck is this fake? This is just saying that if your 3G S is legitimately unlocked, you won't be required to use any utilities such as ultrasn0w.

No more need of the turbosim.
