Hi i resently bought an iphone 1.1.2 OTB and have jailbroken it hoping to use it on o2 pay as you go but when i put it say no service. I think it may be in brick mode.

Could someone please help me and make it as simple as possible as i am note great on computers.

thanks
 
lol what is brick mode?

Try doing a settings reset as that will restart the phone.

And I don't want to seem silly but do make sure the SIM card is in the phone the right way round!
 
hi i tryed reseting the settings and it did not work and it is not posible to put the card the wrong way round.

does anyone no how to get it out or brick mode.

thanks
 
Jailbroken iphone 1.1.2

How do you jailbreak an iphone with 1.1.2 OTB - i heard this was impossible :) (excuse the novice q's)...

i want to just use my old AT&T sim and it doesnt allow me to do anything
 
this is how i did it but i still get no service

I'm not sure I can help any more than post the link. The instructions are reported to work ok so there's probably something you've missed. Have you managed to jailbreak it ie. install third party applications (unlocking and jailbreaking are different things. Jailbreak just allows 3rd party apps)?

I've not gone through the procedure. I just pay O2 on the iPhone tariff.
 
yes everything works the number of the sim is shown in the settings and everything. the only thing that doesnt work is calling and texting. the only thing i can think of is that because it is a brand new sim it isnt activated. but i cant do this as i have no service.
