Hi
I think the best bet would be:

Step 1-Just downgrade your firmware using
this....(Use it only to downgrade and then use step 2)

Step 2-Use this to jailbreak and unlock your iphone.

Have fun..

I used Hack the iPhone - An international site featuring Mac and Windows instructions for modding. and got sorted in 10 mins!

Now the only problems i face is transferring my phonebook from my Blackberry Pearl to the iPhone...any tips? Also can the iPhone users on Vodafone network tell me if their edge is working coz i cant seem to open any website via safari with my basic gprs...was asked to upgade to advanced gprs for iPhone.

yes it works,

you need advanced gprs though
APN: www
username: 'blank'
Pass: 'blank'

put these in your settings as you wont recieve service messages or setting on the iphone

Ok guys, the fun starts all over again.

1.1.2 is out, and naturally, do not upgrade. iTunes is still not detecting that it is out, but probably will, in a day or two.

Details here Apple posts firmware v1.1.2 -- goodbye jailbreak! - Engadget

Guys just got the 8GB yesterday, with firmware 1.0.2 unlocked in the shop itself...But there is some problem with the accelerometer..When i start the ipod, it launches directly in the coverflow mode...And if i start it while holding the iphone upside-down, it launches in the normal selection screen..The same problem is with the pictures as well...I think the accelerometer is oriented in the upside-down direction..What should i do??Any suggestions??

Sahil · 11th November 2007, 12:25

So can i use the iPhone to connect my laptop to the internet once i activate advanced GPRS on vodafone? Has anyone tried this?

ibcool · 11th November 2007, 13:19

havent tried connecting it to my lappy

but the iphone serves the purpose well, the websites look like they are supposed to look so u do not miss using a laptop ... its kinda addictive surfing on the iphone

s0uljah · 12th November 2007, 18:19

I almost had one *sigh*

Its becoming more common now. Funny thing my friend got quoted in National market - 24k and an opti0n for 26k with a years guarantee?!

HellwratH · 13th November 2007, 11:06

s0uljah,

24k hmm, which shop? I have been using the Treo for a year and I wanna change it now. The mobile store quoted 17.7k for HTC touch. Dont know which one to go for? I am still reading the reviews on the net to make a better decision! Any inputs from here?
