How do you unlock the iPhone 3G pay as you go (on O2) to my contracted orange sim? i've done a jailbreak, and a quickpwn but i get no carrier/signal.

Is it even possible? what must i do?

Please help

Thanks
 
I'd be interested to know the answer to this because now the iphone is out on Pay as you go on o2 i planned on buying it this week and then jailbreaking it so my orange sim would work in it. I can't stand o2 and wouldn't want get stuck on that network. Hope someone can answer this question.
 
Please guys its common knowledge.

iPhone 3G CAN NOT be unlocked.

It will not work with your orange SIM card or any other SIM card unless it is an official unlocked iPhone 3G from Italy (or one of the asian countries that sell it unlocked).

Jailbreaking lets you use third party applications not supported by Apple. That is all that jailbreaking does.
 
spinstorm i've seen iphone 3g's that are unlocked but haven't yet seen one that has been unlocked with an orange sim working in it yet.

I know simturbo is meant to be the ONLY way to have an unblocked iphone 3g.

im on orange and works good had no problems yet and i got a yessim
 
I think i might go and get a iphone on O2 pay as you go, get a yessim and see if that will work. I don't want to sand down my sim card don't yessim provide a tray so you don't need to sand anything down?
