Greetings
I believe I may be in need of service for my 16GB iPhone 3G. I purchased it used in June, but it was essentially "new" as it was a replacement for the previous owner's defective unit. (They upgraded to a 3GS on AT&T). It's been unlocked with the Dev-Team tools.
I only have service with T-Mo (USA) and don't have any connection with AT&T.
Here's my problem ... for the past couple of days, I have NO Wi-Fi connectivity. Everything else seems to be working OK. When I switch the Wi-Fi on, I get the quick moving circle that shows it's searching, then nothing. I have tried in several locations, and get the same results. (All locations had previously worked flawlessly.) Since it worked so well up to this time, and I have done nothing to change anything ... not even the 3.01 update ... I suspect a hardware problem.
I checked, and there is still warranty coverage until August 9. Of course, I can extend that by purchasing AppleCare - which I don't really mind doing.
I have an Apple Store nearby, but clearly I can't bring it in with my T-Mo SIM installed!! But, since I have no AT&T stuff ... am I out of luck? I was thinking that maybe I could get a cheap pre-paid phone/sim from AT&T and use that?
Basically, I have no idea if its possible to obtain service or how to go about getting service.
Thanks in advance.
