    Hi, I am looking for some advice on jail breaking. I recently bought an iPhone 3GS, which was jailbroken. Up until now it was running fine in iOS 4 Software, until today when we decided to upgrade it to iOS 5 software. Now it will not accept the SIM. Does this mean it is locked again, and if so, can I re-jailbreak it again? Personally I don’t care if the phone is jailbroken or not, but I just need it to be unlocked. Also, I am not sure which iOS 5 software version has been installed.
    Help would be much appreciated.

    I have an iPhone 3G. It was purchased in the US and then brought to NZ and jailbroken and unlocked for use here (it originally was my sons and then my own) One day I updated it (big mistake now I know), and then stopped working. My son reset it to factory settings. Now all it shows is a screen saying to insert a Sim, and an emergency call keypad. I have gone through a diff website and gone through the steps to jailbreak using Pwange tool. I get as far as putting phone into DFU and iTunes does all the restore stuff etc. At the end of this process it pops up with the same old message, no sim etc, and clicking to open my pwange custom restore doesn’t do anything. I also tried downloading Absinthe but it does not support my device. Do you have any suggestions as to what I should do now?? Oh, and I am on a Mac

    But, Arithio, beware that if your phone does not work 100% thereafter, nobody will reply and help you, you are on your own. Like me, now with my phone not working properly and no help.
