ok so ive been reading, searching, reading and more reading on the different programs that are available to activate and unlock a brand new iphone....
each program claims that they are the best,,,,, the safest,,,,,the easiest and so on.......so my question is ....which one really is the best....is it Ziphone.?
is it iLiberty+ ? is it the new Pwnage tool.??? i mean realisticly i dont know to much about all the jargon like bootloader...baseband...firmware etc...i just want an iphone that will work as if it were actually made for tmobile.. no problems with all the same functional features as with att , minue the visual voicemail i guess......plus i would REALLY like to have AIM (aol instant messenger) on it ..thats about it so please anyone with the superior knowledge please chime in
thanks a lot
 
The PwnageTool is THE safest and is 100% reversible.

It unlocks your phone BEFORE it starts therefore it is not going to suffer wierd errors that may damage your phone like the others.

However if you think its too complicated then iLiberty+ is the next best method.
 
is pwnage tool that much more complicated as compared to the others or is it duable for someone with fairly good computer skills.......also i have windows so i dont think that its available to me yet
are there any Cons of using pwnage?
 
Read my FAQ.

It is not out yet on Windows but it should be anytime now before the end of the weekend.

There are no negatives that I can see to using pwnage. Its not complicated.

My FAQ is very big because people keep asking new questions, but the actual process is painless and really quite simple. Its NOT one click. Its 4 or 5 clicks and you have to put your phone into restore mode once which requires some patience but its the BEST method.
 
how do you put the phone i restore mode.....i dont have you yet but i want to get one once i know i can actually unlock it successfully
thanks for the qiuck posts
 
I told you to read the FAQ - so read it all! lol

All your questions are answered in it as are everyone elses that anyone can ever think of! I promise you!
 
Bottom line with Pwnage, it creates a whole new firmware for your phone to run to unlock it, so you arent messing with the 1.1.4 firmware, you are putting a safe 1.1.4 firmware that unlocks/activates/jailbreaks the phone...
 
so it looks like im going with the pwnage tool as soon as it comes out for windows....
