i jailbroke 3.1.3 last night and downgrded to 3.1.2 but couldnt unlock the phone because she had done a official upgrade via itunes and that upgraded her bootrom(it could be called bootloader) 6.04 and so far that cannot be unlocked or downgraded!! if someone has found a way to unlock or downgrade to 5.80 please post or pm me!!

how do I tell what firmware and what bootloader version I have?

google is ur best frined!(no pun intended) im new to this to but my google-fu is impeckable!!

on topic the reson u cannot unlock ur iphone 3gs with a offical update via itunes is because that update also includes baseband 5.12.01 and bootloader 6.04 whice at this time cannot be unlovked or downgraded!!

however u can still jailbreak the device and downgrade ur os firmware!!

I know but there are SO MANY things in google I'm worried if I try the wrong thing I'll brick it, I tend to trust PPCGers more.

so far thats correct u cannot unlock yet!! now i have someones 3gs and all they call do is use it as a touch ! thats what they get for not following my directions(and updating even tho i told them not to)

My question to everyone here am i wrong for keeping the money they paid for me unlocking the device!! it worked and then they f`ed it up by undating!!

Hell no, he should have listened to you, maybe when the 5.12.01 is released charge him half price

well I guess I have an ipod touch till they release the unlocker for me, I guess I can go ahead and jailbreak it and download some apps and use wifi on it till i can unlock it. It's a very good condition 8/10 3G 16GBs I got from someone for $250 so I'm still pretty pleased with my purchase even though the baseband was updated.


I hit you with 3 thanks, appreciate it, sorry if I'm posting things I could find on google, I just tend to trust (as you pointed out) a PPCG'er who's also a VIP over anyone on google, just like if you wanted advice on unlocking and flashing a custom ROM on your diamond you'd probably take my advice over some random dude.
