Download 1.1.4 firmware (you can search on google to get it)
Restore your iphone through Itues (by holding down the shift key and then pointing it to the dloaded firmware file)
Now your phone should be locked again.
Unlock it by using Ziphone 3.0
Sync with itunes to get your songs,contacts etc back


PS: Before doing restore do take a backup of the pics in the camera roll folder in your phone.

All The BEST

I've used software called "ringtones" although it does work, but also have some known issues like > phone rings even in the silent mode and also vibrator does not work after installing this software.

Can anyone suggest a software or a way to put ringtones in the phone.
I am using 1.1.4 firmware.
I use I-ringer for ringtones - works fine with 1.1.4
shows some irritating ads but its free!

Yeah, I would suggest you to wait for 2.0 which should be out next month and go directly to 2.0.

its not that 2 will be launched and will be broken immediately.. it will be another few days by the time even Zibri gives a jailbreak. as he mentioned process remains teh same but file system changes for which he needs to rework on a few thing. so 2.0 launch + 15 days to 1 months is what we will have to wait for.

Looks like a new release might be imminent. iPhone stocks are currently unavailable online on Apple online stores. I've been checking for a couple of days now. Could be a new release and they don't want to sell the old ones now.

The new 3G iPhone is going to be thicker than the current one.

iClarified - Apple News - 3G iPhone Case Unveiled?

The above link has the pics of the cases for the new iPhone in which we can see the new one being slightly thicker.

Ok I managed to get the ringtones in the phone now.
Used a software caled Iphone Ringtone Maker Ver:2.5, works nicely.
The earlier version did not work with itunes 7.6 , but this one does!!

Looks like it will be. The new 3G and GPS (if included) should add to the bulk and need bigger battery.

The launch anyway seems to be set for June 9th. Lets wait and see how it goes.

I wonder how Nokia's touch based phone will compare against iPhone. Should be better in multimedia than iPhone.

You can google for it - installs on your computer and automatically puts the ringtone into your i-tunes ringtone folder - sync your phone and you are ready to use the ringtone!

NEWS:
iPhone 3G Launch Date Confirmed
We all suspected it, but now it is confirmed: someone very, very close to the 3G iPhone launch has told that Apple will announce their new model at the WWDC Keynote on June 9th. The second-generation iPhone will be available worldwide right after the launch, and not at year's end, as previously thought. The new model will also herald new sales policies in some countries.

I am using 1.1.4 firmware.

if you are at 1.1.4 the itunes can help you out in getting the ringtones in your iphone!!

All you have to do is to get the ring tone as mp3 (search switch on google it's a freeware)
convert it into aiff file using switch then change the extension file to m4a and then open itunes and add the tone in ring tone library of itunes and sync the iphone with it!!

N you will get the tones in your iphone under sounds>ring tones>custom

But this way you can get just 5 tones at a time !

But i must say it's safe to get the things worked by company style

yupp the phone is launching on 9th june but not here !!!

It will be launched in September both by airtel and vodafone under their contract !!

and i assume the price will be around 25k !!

So indians still have to wait for another 4-5 months !!

or get a iphone and unlock it and use it with any service provider like i am doing!!!!
