Ok, just picked up a 3GS today.
Upgraded to 4.3.3 and did the Jailbreak with Redsn0w just now. I need to unlock the phone now since I have Tmobile. I am unsure how to do it, my other 3GS doesn't have GPS since BB=6.15 I dont want to go that route. What are my options?

Right now my Firmware=5.16.02


Thanks Any help is appreciated.

Because of your baseband 05.16.02, there is no other option if you don't want to go with the Ipad baseband.
 
not sure why you would just jump ahead and update to 4.3.3 without checking after the ipad baseband experience. only other option is the Grevey Sim search for it. lots of opinions and reviews on it. grey are as far a legality. ;)

No.
That's what happens when you update to the latest firmware and you ask questions later.
Not sure what firmware it was on before but maybe it was on unlockable baseband that wouldnt need the ipad bb to be installed.

It was on the same Firmware before.

Oh so you were out of luck to begin with.
Only option now is to install the ipad BB.
I heard The Dev team is working on a baseband downgrade tool for the 3G and 3GS so hope down the road you will be able to get your GPS functionality back.

Stock firmware could mean any version of firmware that is not jailbroken. It doesnt mean any stock firmware version can be unlocked without installing the ipad bb and losing your GPS function.
If it was on stock firmware 4.0.2 and below it could have been unlocked without installing the ipad baseband.
Or if the previous owner has maintained any of the below unlockable baseband versions using pwnage tool: 04.26.08, 05.11.07, 05.12.01 and 05.13.04

If you mean what did the 3GS originally come with, it's 3.0

Damn fast too
