After unlocking my iPhone 3GS with ATT and going through the restore process via SIM card, WiFi and iTunes, I am unable to re-activate my phone.
Using a T Mobile SIM card and/or via WiFi I get a message that the server is temporarily unavailable. When I try iTunes, I get a message indicating that there is no SIM card inserted when it has one in.
Help?
iPhone 3GS
Did you get the 'Congratulations your iPhone is now unlocked message' when following
AT&T's instructions?
Has your iPhone been jailbroken?
Never got the "Congratulations" message. The phone stops when looking for telephone connectivity (third step after choosing a WiFi network).
The phone whas unlocked and jailbroken long time ago using a thrid party software but lately could never update it to a more recent iOS. Apps were not being updated and stopped working. So, I decided to unlock the iPhone using the ATT/Apple process. I updated the iOS before unlocking it using the Apple/ATT instructions.
Your phone is not being unlocked because you hacked/jailbroke it in the past. Your phone will most likely never be unlocked legitimately.
You cannot get help here for jailbroken phones. I suggest you go back to whomever hacked your phone for help.
