i am new and tried to search for related threads but came up with nothing. i bought an iphone off of someone i know indirectly. it was jailbroken and my sim for iwireless (t-mobile affiliate) worked fine. i accidentally upgraded in itunes and the trouble began. long story short, i unlocked my phone and regained access using ziphone. only problem is my sim isnt being recognized, the signal bars just stay flat and eventually say no service. note: it does recognize that a sim is in because it doesnt display "no sim" any help would be appreciated by this very non-tech savvy headcase. thanks
Got a tip for us?

sim problem after using ziphone

Well, first off, what firmware version are you on? Ziphone does not work on 2.x. Also, there have been reports of irreversable damage caused by Ziphone (not saying that this is the case here but just a heads up). This is caused, I believe, by damaging the baseband...exactly what you may have modified in your attempt to regain access. If you are on 2.x and can't resolve your no signal issue, I would recommend restoring to factory firmware and re-jailbreaking with QuickPwn. Also...VERY important...are you on a 3G or first gen iPhone?
i am using 1.1.4. i know the phone isnt a 3g, but not sure of much other than that. i will definately try to reset firmware and rejailbreak with the recommended program. when i reset, is there a specific firmware version i should reset to? when i install firmware i get the (1015) error but have been told that just means a successful downgrade. i appreciate your help and thank you.
