hi i just got the iphone 3gs today from tmobile and wanted to know if i could jailbreak and unlock it? its on 4.2.1 and modem firmware 05.15.04 what tools would i need? is it still the same to save my ssh? its been awhile since i last done this with my old iphone :p thanks :D
 
Currently, there is no unlock for baseband 05.15. However, if you really want to do it, you can go with the Ipad baseband and unlock it.

There are consequences with this route i.e GPS might not work, warranty void etc...

So, read before you decide what to do.

Have you tried looking yourself? Did you even go to the link provided? You can find these answers quite quickly if you take a moment of time to look for yourself.

yes i have read but i dont know :( if i just jailbreak the now with green poison will i still be able to unlock?
 
Only if you use redsnow to install the ipad baseband and if you do you will lose your GPS function.
up to you.

so if i use green posi0n to jailbreak now i cant jailbreak again with redsnow and update my baseband for unlock?
 
i have just jailbroke my phone with greenpoison if i want to unlock will i still be able? thats all thanks

Greenpois0n does not give you the option to install ipad baseband. If you want to unlock, you will need to use redsn0w to install ipad baseband, then once it has that baseband. You can install ultrasn0w from Cydia to unlock your phone.
