Tutorial to unlock iphone 3G/3GS using Blacksnow (link)

Geohot, the first hacker to find an unlock solution for the iphone(2G), just released a tool to unlock 3G & 3GS phones. This tool can unlock the phones running the latest firmware (3.1.2). This is supposed to the fastest unlock solution which does things in a snap. Please note that this tool is not meant for unlocking 2G phones.

Iphone hacks is running an article which mentions that this application is available over cydia also. You can use this approach if your 3G/3GS iphone is already jailbroken.

As usual, iclarified is ready with a pictorial tutorial explaining each step of the unlock process using blacksn0w. Happy unlocking!

No, Not with blacksnow tool. This tool is only meant for 3G & 3GS.

Yes, you can unlock 2G phones on 3.1.2 firmware also. See my post http://gadgetsandyou.blogspot.com/2010/02/tuto.html

I've tried many times unlocking the 3gs with blacnsn0w but it will not work. I haven't actually seen any unlocked 3gs phones either. I don't believe it works for 3gs only 3g
