Hi,
New to iphones (first day of ownership). I was given an iphone 3GS by a friend who has upgraded to the new phone. It was on orange and was locked, as in he'd reported it missing, found it and never bothered to do anything about it as he moved to Vodafone to get the Iphone 5.
Anyway, read tons about jailbreaking and unlocking today and have done a jailbreak using this useful link: http://jaxov.com/2011/05/how-to-unlock-iphone-3gs-baseband-05-16-01-05-16-02-on-ios-4-3-3/
It uses a program called cydia and then ultrasnow. Done all of that, put in a vodafone sim but there are no bars on the phone. Also tried a virgin sim, and that doesn't work either.
No idea what to do next. Is it even possible to use another providers sim in this phone?
Grateful for any advice.
Thanks.
