Question by Michael Buble fan: Is it possible to activate an iPhone 3GS bought on eBay with US Cellular?
I’m planning on buying an iPhone 3GS on eBay, but I don’t know whether it can be activated with US Cellular. If, in the description, it says “unlocked iPhone“, does it mean that it can be activated with any carrier? Please explain this to me, because I’m completely clueless.

Answer by Logan; (LoganCool101@ymail.com) I don’t believe US Cellular uses SIM Cards, so it would be impossible to use an iPhone 3GS on US Cellular unless US Cellular sold them themselves; US Cellular has integrated SIM Cards.
“Unlocking” a phone means you call the carrier the phone is for and get the unlock code, once you do so you can use it on another carrier who uses SIM Cards, like if you had the AT&T Quickfire and wanted to use it on T-Mobile you would call AT&T to get the unlock code so you can use a T-Mobile SIM Card in the phone.

This video is going to be on Unlocking your iPhone 3g and 3gS running 4.1 or 4.2/4.2.1 Firmwares. You cannot install Ultrasn0w directly from Cydia to Unlock your devices on these firmwares. You will need to change the baseband to 06.15.00 (which belongs to iPad 3.2.2 FW) and then install Ultrasn0w from Cydia. All detailed demo is shown. You will need new Redsn0w 0.9.6b5 to Jailbreak, then change its baseband and then install “Ultrasn0w” from Cydia to Unlock as shown in the video. PLEASE NOTE THAT 4.2 IS SAME AS 4.2.1. THEY ARE 2 DIFFERENT NAMES OF ONE FIRMWARE. Download Redsn0w for Windows www.mediafire.com Download Redsn0w for MAC: www.mediafire.com Download iPhone 3g 4.1 firmware www.megaupload.com Download iPhone 3g 4.2/4.2.1 firmware www.megaupload.com Download iPhone 3gS 4.1 firmware www.megaupload.com Download iPhone 3gS 4.2/4.2.1 www.megaupload.com PLEASE READ: IF YOU ARE ON 4.1 FIRMWARE ON YOUR IPHONE 3G OR 3GS THEN BROWSE 4.1 FIRMWARE IN REDSNOW. AND IF YOU ARE ON 4.2/4.2.1 FIRMWARE ON YOUR IPHONE 3G OR 3GS THEN BROWSE 4.2/4.2.1 FIRMWARE IN REDSNOW. (Also note that if you have an iPhone 3gS and you get a ‘fetching iPad baseband error’ thats because you choose Yes/No to newer or older model option when redsnow asks you in the beginning. Meaning if you choose Yes before and you got ipad baseband error so now you will choose No option when Redsnow asks you your iPhone 3gS Model. It will be all set.

Question by cameron_toney: How to unlock iphone 3g without activated AT&T card?
I was wondering if its possible to unlock an iphone 3g without an activated AT&T card? It crashed so I restored it and the AT&T card is not activated because I unlocked it already. And if it is. Is it possible to do it yourself?
Best answer:
Answer by Logics Well it depends the firmware its on,
i.e 4.2.1 and the bandwith i.e 6.15.00
but you would also need to hacktivate your iPhone so it can bypass
iTunes activation page so you would just need wifi to do this so
so send me your bandwith/firmware for better help

Question by Jonny: How can i tell if my iphone 3g is unlocked?
Its an iPhone 3g and it works on firmware 3.1.2 … the modem firmware is 05.11.07
I used blacksn0w and when i downloaded it… it said “Enjoy your unlocked iPhone”
How do i make sure its unlocked?
Best answer:
Answer by Angel put a another carrier sim card in it and make a call…
Like, in the USA, iphone only works under AT&T… so put a T-Mobile SIM in it and make a call… if you can call someone and they can call you, its jailbroken….
If your in Europe, put another carrier’s SIM card in it… and test it out the same way
