Please Digg this story up by clicking the Digg it button on the right! or go to http://digg.com/apple/yellowsn0w_works_on_all_basebands_firmware and Digg. Thanks.

Did you ignore the Dev Team's post about upgrading to firmware 2.2? You're in luck! The Dev Team has made yellowsn0w compatible with the newer baseband.

What does this mean?

You can upgrade to a jailbroken firmware 2.2 on your iPhone 3G using PwnageTool (MAC) or QuickPWN (Windows/MAC) regardless of the baseband. Now Windows users will no longer need to get a custom firmware to prepare their iPhone 3G for the unlock. Stay tuned for the yellowsn0w package which will be available in Cydia by 12 PM PST at the latest.

Edit: The following screenshot by Muscle Nerd proves that yellowsn0w will work on ANY baseband. :)

Where did you hear about that????

JayJay said...

didnt the dev team specifically say it will not work on 2.28?

@Sebastien: It's posted on the iPhone DevTeam blog here:
http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/67687499/2008

In binary that message translates to vtaber 61060174. vtaber translates to "ignore" and the 61060174 means post# 61060174 on the iPhone DevTeam blog. http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/61060174/the-man-from-delmonte-he-say-yes

Sweet! I can't wait until the yellowsn0w update comes out. :)

Anonymous said...

When does it come out? It has already been past 12PM PST ....

Anonymous said...

I have 2.1 should i upgrade before or after yellowsn0w? Using Pwnage tool right?

yellow sn0w said...

@Anonymous: You need to have a jailbroken iPhone 3G in order to unlock your iPhone 3G with yellowsn0w. You can go ahead and jailbreak to the latest firmware 2.2 with PwnageTool or QuickPWN. Once you've done that just wait for the yellowsn0w package to show up in Cydia. :)

After I saw this message, I quickly updated my iPhone to 2.2.
However, I made a big mistake. In my iPhone 2.1 setting, I used BossPrefs to hide Cydia and Installer, but I still had BossPref available. Now, after I updated to 2.2, then QuickPwn it, I cannot see any icon of Cydia, Installer and BossPref.
How can I enable Cydia and Installer back?
Help please.....

Regards,
Bag

Hi, first - fantastic work. Where can we donate something;
Problem: I am in Germany. Firmware is as requested. Boot done, Sim in and out - but no carrier. PIN switched off, G3 Switched off - no carrier;
Any advice? Carrier should be BASE (EPLUS)..
Cheers - Karl

I have the carrier rec as T-Mobile and can receive calls and snd/receive texts. However, I have the same prob everyone else has in that it will not make calls. After I try, I have to turn fly mode on for a few secs, turn it off, wait 10 secs, take the SIM out and re-insert and all bars come back, but still can't make calls.

JOE said...

I can't make calls!!!!!!! only receive anyone have idea why is this happening?

Anonymous said...

I can''t make a call but I can receive calls. Can't send text messages. Currently have ATT in the US as a carrier and I am in Colombia trying to use Comcel. The SIM works in another phone that I have but will not work in the iPhone. I can get the carrier signal (even in 3g) but I can't make the call. It seems like it trys but then hangs. Using yellowsn0w 9.4 (or 9.0.4 or whatever).

Hackforce said...

Hey guys does anyone knows where cana i get the 2.2 firmware with the baseband 02.28.0? I've tryed to download from iTunes but it gives me all the time the one that has the modem firmware 02.11.07. How can i get the right one? Help plz.

My e-mail: hugobdesign@gmail.com

Anonymous said...

Dev team specifically said Yellowsn0w will ONLY work with 2.28.00. Remember once you update your modem firmware you can not go back to the old firmware. 2.28.00 does not work with turboSIM. For those that have had problems, try using older SIM cards with no special features first to try and get a signal. If that doesn't work try the ff: Switch off Data Roaming and 3G. Go in and out of Airplane Mode. Reset Network settings. Reboot iPhone. Be patient and wit a few mins and make sure you're in an area that has signal in the first place.

dzerg said...

i have just yellowsn0w-ed my colleague's iphone.his iphone works. but the thing is after ive switch on the 3G and EDGE,no 3G or EDGE line captured.mine is already officially unlocked and 3G symbol shown steadily on top.

One more thing is if his Iphone is reboot,after rebooting he has to switch ON the Airplane Mode and wait a few seconds (20 seconds at most),and switch OFF the Airplane Mode again,after that the Iphone will start searching for carrier line.Kinda tedious to do such things after each reboot.

Hi after jailbreaking my iphone 3G i can't make any calls but i can receive calls so i was wondering if anyone can help me with this problem. Thanks

Anonymous said...

has there been anything observed about the 02.30.03 modem firmware code, as to
-how difficult it will be to crack, or
-how long it will be until a unlock can be completed for it?

thanks.
