2G Iphone unlock and jailbroken questions

[webpromo]

I'm in Canada with FIDO.
I have a g2 iphone (At&T version) that is unlock and jailbroken with firmware 1.1.4 (4A102) according to the "About" section on the iphone.

I understand there is a new version on the firmware that has been released and already jailbroken.

Here's what I want to know and do.

If a phone is already unlocked can it be relocked by updating the firmware?
If yes, if I update the firmware how do I get it unlocked?

How do I unlock and how do I jailbreak the new ver of the iphone fireware for 2G

These are all valid questions that will require a lot to answer. Have you checked the forums yet? All these have been asked and answered.

Also, check out the Dev Team's blog at http://blog.iphone-dev.org/ for some info on all this too.

I have just been through this with my phone to go from 1.1.4 to 2.2.

So, here is what I did:
- downloaded the 2.2 firmware file from iClarified here:

- put the phone into DFU mode, allowed the phone to restore through iTunes 8 to the 2.2 firmware (shift and restore)
- DID NOT activate through iTunes
- downloaded and ran Quickpwn, to unlock and install Cydia following this tutorial:
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1880

It all worked fine.

Just sync the phone in iTunes (to make a backup if you want to keep your data), restore the phone, upgrade to 2.2.1, then use QuickPwn to jailbreak and unlock the phone

Or do it whichever way the next poster tells you. That will be different again.

And then we ask people who post questions here "why are you confused?"
