There was so many applications w/c my old iPhone did not have that caught my attention on the swap. The only thing wrong w/ the phone is that the Wi-Fi isn't working! Please is my phone fixable or its just useless?!</p> I swapped my good WORKING unlocked iPhone 8GB version 2.2.1 w/ a iPhone 16GB version 2.2.1.

i got my 3G iPhone 2.2.1(5H11)/02.30.03 un-simlocked by paying AU$120 to Optoss, then after that I did tha whole jailbreak thing.

Initially i had a few issues, but restored it & was working * p e r f e c t l y * un-simlocked & jailbaked until I switched it off, afterwhich its impossible 2get tha WiFi to un-gray itself & turn on.

Which brings me to being half-way under my rock.. i dont think much ov the brick-sized iPhone & its many missing basic features and WiFi was probably my only reason for living… with an iPhone.

Anyone able to offer some idea’s on how to get it back, ive restored it, restored it from the phone doing the 2 hr reset, ive restored it then reloaded Pwnage or woteva.. im stuck.. half-way.. rock.. wifi..

ltz.. ryan

  1. download Quickpwn 2.2.5-2 (for window users) or the Pwnage Tool 2.2 (for mac users – though i’m not sure how the procedure goes with mac users.. sorry.)
  2. download the 2.2.1 firmware (that’s with the 2.30.03 baseband) and save it in the Quickpwn 2.2.5-2 folder.
  3. open Quickpwn, open also itunes then plug your iphone 3g.. after it is recognized by itunes and Quickpwn, close itunes then proceed with Quickpwn.
  4. Quickpwn will give you the option to browse the firmware.. browse and choose now the 2.2.1 firware you’ve downloaded earlier then follow the next couple of simple steps and you’ll be able to feel again the power of the iphone! :)

this process activates the phone and jailbreaks it but doesn’t unlock it because the 2.2.1 firmware with 2.30.03 baseband is still unlockable, so a valid sim card should be used.. or, you can also purchase/use a rebel sim together with your local sim card to “unlock” the iphone for the meantime. enjoy! cheers!!! :)
