I've googled how to do this, but its all old articles from 2007-08 with like, 1.something firmware.

Does anyone use this hack? How can I make it work?
 
Please read on the official blog for more info. I'm sure that if you google "iphone 2g jailbreak 3.0" that you would have gotten your exact answer. :) Anyway, you need to download redsn0w to jailbreak the device, or you can use Pwnage Tool. Then when you are jailbroken you download "bootneuter" to unlock the phone, just like in almost all firmwares before it. The process is almost the exact same.

I've already unlocked it. I was talking about T-zones that T-mobile offers. Its like 6 dollar internet or something.
 
I have s similar question. I too have a 2G iPhone that was running on 2.x. I used pwnage to upgrade to 3.0. Phone is unlocked and jailbroken and works fine, albeit a bit buggy. Anyhow, I don't how to get my t-zones to work again. There was a hack for it, but now I don't find it in Cydia. Is there a new T-Mobile hack? Also redSnow is for the 3g models right? Mine is an early generation iPhone. Can anyone please shed some light

thanks
 
Yeah I don't think that they offer it anymore, but if they do you will have to call them, I could never find it on their site. It is worth a call to customer care though.
 
Didn't want to start a new thread, so I thought this topic could help me out a bit.

I have a 2g iPhone on 3.0 JB'd and unlocked for use on T-Mobile. I have the T-Zones plan and before 3.0 it worked. Now I've been trying to get it to work again on 3.0, but I realized something... There's no way for me to access APN settings!

Any one have any ideas?
 
Go to Settings,General,Network and then Cellular Data Network. Type in the APN:epc.tombile.com.Leave Username and Password blank
 
I've typed in epc.tmobile.com in the apn settings, I've turned on data roaming. I've even tried wap.voicestream.net, internet2.voicestream.net, internet3.voicestream.net and nothing. I just get the upgrade your plan page, and can browse the T-Zones page. Does anyone know of a way to get the hack without Cydia? It seems lots of people have this problem and everyone says use epc.tmobile.com, but it plain doesnt work anymore for me. I've upgraded to 3.0.

Look at post #10 above.
 
I tried that as well, still get directed to the "upsell" web2go page. I'm using a 2g if that makes a difference.

Dont know. I havent upgraded mine to 3.0 yet and i have a 2G with t-Mobile. If the data wont work with it, then i wont upgrade. I thought somebody said they got it to work with their 2G. Maybe it was a 3G. Not sure.
