Step-by-Step Guide to Unlock iPhone 3G

The iPhone dev team released the much awaited software solution to unlock iPhone 3G so that users can use any GSM carrier's SIM, a perfect New Year gift for all those waiting to unlock their iPhone 3G.

Here is a detailed step-by-step guide to unlock iPhone 3G using Dev team's yellowsn0w application.

Some important points to note before we start:

• Hacking your iPhone could void its warranty.
• Dev team's yellowsn0w application is still in beta and has not worked for all iPhone 3G users but they are working hard to fix the issues and have been releasing new versions of their application.
• Since one of the important requirements to unlock iPhone 3G is to upgrade to iPhone firmware 2.2 (as it exclusivley works with baseband firmware 02.28.00 which comes bundled with firmware 2.2), you need to be aware that iPhone firmware 2.2 breaks Turbo SIM (in case you are using it) – the hardware method to unlock iPhone 3G so if Dev team's software method which is still in beta does not work you might not be able to use your iPhone 3G.
• This step-by-step guide is exclusively to unlock iPhone 3G. We haven't tried it with the 1st generation iPhone. We would sugges you use QuickPwn to unlock the 1st gen iPhone.
• The current version of yellowsn0w does not support SIMs with PIN enabled. So please disable any PIN you may have on that SIM before using this guide. The Dev team are currently working to support SIMs with PIN so this is a temporary limitation.
• Please note this guide does not work for baseband 02.30.03.
• If you want to know if Dev team's unlocking solution has worked for your carrier, please check the Yellowsn0w report.

Preparatory steps before unlocking your iPhone 3G:

• Dev team's unlocking solution works exclusively with baseband
  firmware 02.28.00 which comes bundled with firmware 2.2, so you will need to upgrade your iPhone 3G to iPhone
  firmware 2.2 without preserving its baseband and jailbreak it. You can check your
  firmware and modem firmware(baseband) versions via
  Settings->General->About and look for Version and Modem Firmware. iPhone 3G firmware Version should be 2.2 (5G77) and Modem Firmware should be 02.28.00.
• You need to first jailbreak your iPhone 3G to unlock it. You can checkout this simple step-by-step guide to jailbreak iPhone 3G using QuickPwn for Mac users or this step-by-step guide to jailbreak iPhone 3G using QuickPwn for Windows users.

Once your iPhone 3G running iPhone firmware 2.2 (with baseband firmware 02.28.00) is jailbroken, you are ready to unlock iPhone 3G.

Unlock iPhone 3G using yellowsn0w:

1. Launch Cydia from your iPhone 3G's home screen.
2. You need to add the source of the yellowsn0w application. So tap Manage, one of the tabs at the bottom and then tap Sources.




3. Tap the “Edit” button on the top-right corner of the screen.



4. Then tap on the “Add” button on the top-left corner of the screen.

6. Once the source has been added press the "Return to Cydia" button at the bottom of the screen.



7. Then tap the "Done" button at the top-right of the screen. This completes the steps to add the source for the yellowsn0w application so you can install it.



8. Tap on the apt9.yellowsn0w.com source that was just added from the list of sources.



9. Tap on apt9.yellowsn0w.com again from the list of packages.



10. You will get an option to install the yellowsn0w application. Tap the "Install" button on the top-right corner of the screen.



11. Tap the "Confirm" button on the top-right corner of the screen.



12. This will install the yellowsn0w application, you will see the progress on the next screen and the "Return to Cydia" button will come up once installation is complete.



13. Tap on the "Return to Cydia" button and press the "Home" button on your iPhone 3G to go back to the home screen.
14. You need to reboot your iPhone 3G so that the yellowsn0w application which is a small daemon is launched on boot up. Press the “Sleep” button and hold it until you see
    the “Slide to power off” message. Then slide to switch off the iPhone.
15. Once your iPhone 3G has shutdown, insert the desired SIM card and restart your iPhone 3G.
16. Once your iPhone boots up and you see the “Slide to Unlock” screen,
    wait for around 10 to 15 seconds (may be more) to see if your iPhone 3G picks up
    the carrier signal.
17. The Dev team has reported that there is a known issue with SIM cards that have STK (SIM Toolkit) application menus. So if your iPhone 3G doesn't pick up the carrier signal after reboot then try to try to pull out the SIM card and re-insert it, wait for another 10 – 15 seconds and see if your iPhone 3G picks up
    the signal of the carrier.

If it does then you have successfully unlocked your iPhone 3G.
