I got this iPhone 3G 16Gb, howerver it is at the iTunes screen, and I'm not sure if it has been restored to 3.0 or to 3.0.1. I am trying to unlock this phone and only have instructions for 3.0 as well as 3.0 IPSW. What should I do?

iTunes should tell you when you plug it into the computer. It will be on the main screen when you click on the iPhone in iTunes.

Hummmm.... 3.0.1 has only been out about 48 hours, so the person you got it from should know if it was JUST updated..... :rolleyes:
 
Alright it looks like it's running 3.0 Now before I unlock it with ultrasnow do I need to remove the sim card, does it make a difference?

If you are going to run an AT&T sim you can leave it in, others, I believe they recommend to remove it. And if it's T-Mobile in US, turn off 3G before running Ultrasn0w.
 
Ugh I'm restoring my iPhone right now back to 3.0 and will jailbreak it again. I installed both cydia and icy, and when I try to update the phone it pops up errors. I'm going to jailbreak again and only install cydia. Then try updating everything and installing ultrasnow.

You do know you can jailbreak 3.0.1 right.....
