hi guys,

ive been looking around everywhere and driving myself crazy trying to get this phone working!!

basically i've moved from australia to the cayman islands, and the LIME sim card i purchased is basically useless....

the phone is a 3gs 5.1.1 with baseband 05.16.05 & the three numbers on the serial are 227 which would indicate the 27th week of 2012 meaning i can't downgrade the baseband to install ultrasn0w and unlock correct?

does anyone know of any possible way to unlock the phone as I simply just want to be able to use the phone i paid good money for over here in the caribbean with LIME instead of my provider back in aus

any help or advice would be much appreciated 🙂

cheers!!
 
Yes, there's plenty of IMEI iphone unlock sellers on ebay.
Pick one that has good feedback on officially unlocking iphones and then your iphone will be factory unlocked.
 
righto, I'll have a look on eBay and fingers crossed I can get this thing working!! thanks guys 🙂
 
Is there a question? cause 13 postings with a questionmark might suggest so...

This poster must just be trying to get some kind of bump in post count 🙄
