Any way to activate a 3GS now that the phonebook sim doesn't work?

Also I keep seeing stuff saying pwnage tool only works if the phone has been previously jailbroken??? What is the deal with that?

Once a phone is exploited to accept custom firmwares, you can always update with one even if there are no JB for that firmware. For example, lets say 4.2 comes out and all current JB exploits don't work, if you can create a custom firmware for 4.2, you can still update to 4.2 given the phone was previously pwned JB. That's why these people get to update to newer firmware within hours and days of Apple's official release. While, others have to wait for new JB.

Since Pwanagetool was updated to work with 4.1, you don't have to be previous JB to use it.

bb 5.14.02

Having no prior exprience with iPhones I managed to "upgrade" an unlocked iPhone 3GS to baseband 5.14.02. iTunes tricked me I got OS4.1

I understand bb 5.14.02 cannot be unlocked for now, looking forward to the ultrasn0w (or similar) update that will do it.

Well yeah, I will learn "iPhone 101" the hard way. I read somewhere here that the new ultrasn0w will probably do it.
