so i jailbroke my iphone 1g on 3.1.3 using spirit. do i have to unlock my iphone in order to use an at&t sim card?
 
yes! on AT&T is the main carrier so there is no need to unlock since you are actually locked to AT&T!
 
Spirit doesn't activate the phone.
Just jb's an officially activated iPhone.
Use redsnow instead. That does hactivate.
 
He doesn't need to hacktivate, though, since he's on AT&T. In fact, if he hacktivates his AT&T SIM won't work.

Your right.
But doesn't a 2G iPhone make you choose your voice and data plan thru iTunes in order to activate?One could avoid that with hactivating.
I actually jb and hactivated many 2G iPhones with redsnow and blackrain before and AT&T sims worked fine.
