i have a brand new iphone 3gs its locked to the voda network in the uk

i have tried my usual method of using pwanage tool to jailbreak and then unlock

I cant do this i think because the phone has never been activated.

is it possible to jailbreak and unlock and actviate at the same time ? a new iphone 3gs..
i dont have a voda sim card only 02 ones..
the phone has the normal "connect to itunes, emergency calls only " message at present.

please basic steps, i am no expert at all..

thanks in appreciation in advance.
please dont slam me, i have tried to use the search facility and looked at the sticky at the top of this thread. but for some reason it deosnt work
 
a friend of mine got a 3gs on voda and it has 3.1.3, id be suprised if youve got one with 3.1.2.
 
I would just add that, even if you do not have 3.1.3, it is highly unlikely that you will have the old bootrom. You will therefore be limited to a tethered jailbreak.
