I have recently jailbroken my phone, and as I am going abroad later in the year (and intend to find a cheaper network to use whilst I am away) have also unlocked it with Ultrasn0w.
I bought this: 3 Micro SIM Card with 3GB Data (Pre-Pay) Deals, #35088 - Expansys.com UK well I bought the 1gb version, but it now claims not to exist.
I put it in my phone whilst switched off, switched on again, nothing. One bar of nothing (I do live in the middle of no where, and I know 3network don't reach as far as me, but I also took it into town where there didn't seem to be any registration of the network).
When I swap out the sim whilst the phone is on, first it says 'invalid sim' but then it jumps to one bar within a minute - but no hint of carrier name or any reception at all.
I realise the sim may be data only, which is fine, I've bought it to test out my unlock. What am I doing wrong though?
I did briefly change the internet set up to the network details, in General/Network/CDN//Cellular Data, but that had no effect.
Is there something I am doing wrong, or have I failed to unlock my phone properly? I will try again tomorrow when I am at work/civilisation/better towers.
I am using the most current iOS official update, and have baseband 4.10.01
I'm new to unlock/Jailbreaking iPhones, so if there is any more information you may need to give me a pointer, please let me know!
