I finally got my 3G Unlocked to 6.15 and I dont have a sim card in it and I dont have access to wifi. Is the reason because I havent fully installed ultrasnow yet?
 
Your post is very confusing.
You JB your iphone 3G on 4.2.1 you said.
Then you say you dont have a sim card in and then you ask why you dont have 3G signal? And why you dont have acess to wifi?
If you didnt install ultrasnow then you didnt unlock it yet, its just JB right now.

I JB and UN through redsn0w without a SIM. I have yet to install ultrasnow because I dont have internet, there is no wifi where im at only ethernet cable. I was wondering if 3G worked like wifi and just picked up on its own or if I have to have phone service first. Soryy about the confusion, Ive been in class all day and trying to do this in between, Im vey tired.

You just JB you iphone, you didnt unlock yet untill you install ultrasnow from cydia. Thats what will unlock the iphone.
You will need wifi to install ultrasnow. Im not sure what you're asking if it will pick up 3G without even having a SIM installed in the phone. Thats definitely a NO.

Yes, its up to you.
You can go to Tmobile and get a SIM and pick your plan with them and then put it in the unlocked iphone.
Tmobile and AT&T is your only 2 options in the US.
Or if you want to use it with an AT&T prepaid sim you dont even have to unlock it or JB cause any AT&T gophone sim will work with it.

Im doing this for a friend and im pretty sure that they will be using At@t go phone. How will this effect their internet and other things? Or will it at all?
