it's good to hear this happened to someone else (misery loves company?) because i was going to go ape ish...

i had (key word) a jailbroken 3g that had this exact problem and the only way for me to get rid of it was to...

upgrade to 2.0.2...

didnt want to do it but i need to be able to dial out...

i hope someone here has a solution for you!

I had problems with this when I installed RIP Dev's Kate and whatever their mobile preferences thing is called. When I uninstalled it, it started working again.

Just upgrade. It wont be long before jailbreak is out. If i were to bet it would be next week. Those guys are amazing at cracking the firmware.

Restore it then man. I can almost guarantee that it is/was one of those apps.

no sympathy for someone who is using the phone in a form not intended by the provider. I'm guessin your not an AT&T customer and that is why you don't care to upgrade. You knew the risk when you messed with it, now you deal with the consequences.

Hey, can you hear me all the way up there, on your imaginary "I think I'm smarter than you" cloud?

Anyway - OP:

1. Just update it to 2.0.2, IMO - I think it's bit stabler than 2.0.1 anyway. That being said:

2. 2.0.2 has been jailbroken. Quickpwn, IMO is a far better solution than the complete .ipsw wipeout of WinPwn - it only jailbreaks an already restored phone, keeping any settings/changes intact.
