    you are fine if you are using the phone on AT&T.

      I am not sure if it can be unlocked yet. But I need that # by modem firmware to tell

        Yup, I am on AT&T. That's good to know, I'll update that next time I sync.

        Also, I think I've got everything set up:






        Can't use the 5-icon springboard apparently. It tells me it's not compatible with my firmware.

        I'm looking for a "sleeker" looking "slide to unlock" slider, though. Are there any of those out there?

            Yeah it's the later baseband and I know I can't unlock that. I was asking if you know if it's possible to downgrade to 3.0.X because that's the firmware with the right baseband to unlock. Starting with 3.1.X the baseband was changed and can't be unlocked so far.

              Ok, so I downloaded that blackra1n thing. Just wondering some things before I jailbreak. Can someone tell me what to do and not do when I jailbreak? I'm talking about things like I don't dl the newest software update, right? Stuff like that....

              BTW, I have an iPod Touch and its on software version 2.2.1.

                You're going to need firmware 3.1.2 to use blackra1n. When you jailbreak it... download Winterboard to install themes.

                  quick update on my stolen phone, its still gone. been tracking it since i last posted. never was turned back on with sim card in it.

                  so i added a new 16g 3gs on my account last week. got the new 2yr pricing etc.

                  took me a solid week to bitch and moan enough to get the line that was stolen canceled and the 160 dollar fee waived. whew, finally done!! just keep calling until you get someone that will work with ya lol.

                  hmm, now to jailbreak or not to jailbreak is the question lol.

                    There is no question.

                    On another topic. I just finished jailbreaking my 3.1.2 firmware. I installed Glasklart with 5 rows, columns, and dock. Then installed Bosspaper to cycle through over 100 abstract backrounds every 5 minutes.

                    It's looking mighty fine but I can't seem to get Lockinfo to work with it. I'm going to try intelliscreen and see if it works.

                      If you upgrade to another firmware once you are jailbroken it will un-jailbreak your phone so it's best to wait until another fix is released. Also that will need to reinstall your apps downloaded from Cydia and such.

                      Other than that there is no real dangers. As long as you don't get too out of hand with the Springboard upgrades your phone won't slow down.

                      I had SpringJumps, Winterboard iElegence Pro Theme, iBlanks, and 5 icon dock and it ran a little slower than normal but manageable. It wasn't until I tried to add stacks that it crashed on me.

                      I'd say just search the web for a theme you think looks good and make sure you have the sources to download it and download the springboard upgrades you need for that specific theme. Also if you have a wireless network SSHing is a good skill to know if you are going to perfect your themes.

                        So I need to get the firmware I have to pay for? Damn that sucks. Guess I'm not jail breaking until that firmware becomes free.

                          Correct me if im wrong but why are you paying for a firmware update. Aren't they all free?

                            Firmware updates are always free.
