~pcwiz Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 From Dev Team Blog: We have been working hard on a few other things. The main one being the 3G unlock codenamed “yellowsn0w”. This is now completed and is currently being packaged into a user-friendly application with the simplicity that you see in QuickPwn or BootNeuter. The target release date for the unlock is New Year’s Eve 2008. This unlock method is available to iPhone 3Gs that have 2.11.07 baseband or earlier, we did warn you. You can tell what version baseband you have by going to Settings->General->About->Modem Firmware The unlock requires a jailbroken 3G iPhone. It’ll be installable via Cydia and so it doesn’t matter if you have a Mac or PC. Please refrain from updating your baseband, regardless of what version you’re at. We’ll have complete directions on New Year’s Eve. We’ll stream a live demo of the unlock before Christmas (see the update at the end of this post) The unlock that the Dev Team has promised to bring is finally going to be here on New Year's eve, codenamed yellowsn0w. Video demonstration is available here. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/142429-dev-team-completes-iphone-3g-soft-unlock/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

bofors Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 This a totally misplaced iPhone n00b qeustion, but... ... what is the story with making free VOIP calls over WiFi on the iPhone? Is that cracked yet? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/142429-dev-team-completes-iphone-3g-soft-unlock/#findComment-1022706 Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Is not a crack, there are several Apps that let you use VOIP over WIFI. I use 2 of them. Nevertheless there is a hack to make those apps work with 3G/edge.

Chaz_UK Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Unlocked and tested using a Bt Mobile sim of my wifes. Shows up as vodafone as they piggyback from the vodafone network. I have no data settings for BT mobile so I am unable to test its data capabilities sadly. Now ill be using my 3G as my work phone instead of the {censored} Nokia i have been given!
