hi LITTLEP,
you will have to use a program called “redsn0w” for a 3G 3.0 iphone to be jailbroken…then you use ultrasn0w to unlock..

yellowsn0w only works with older iphones,

just google for tutorials for your iphone version..
if you need more help please email me dj69brisbane@gmail.com

I just got my 3G with 3.0 firmware (setting > general > about > version 3.0). I tried yellowsn0w, and it didn’t work for me since it only work for 02.28.0. I got a Invalid Sim message after ran the yellowsn0w. After some time google, I found http://www.quickpwn.com/2009/06/unlock-iphone-3g-30-with-ultrasn0w.html which works great. One shot and done.

Hope it helps and save some time for anyone trying the same thing.

Help me please!!! When I try to add a source it says

“Did not Find Repository.”

“The indicated repository could not be found. This could be because you are trying to add a legacy installer repository (these are not supported). Also, this interface is only capable of working with exact repository URLS. If you host a repository and are having issues please contact the author of Cydia with any questions you have.”

I am not getting any links from the sites listed to download yellowsn0w. All that is present on the page is “yellowsn0w third generation”.
Can you give a better referal? I even tried it from the Dev link and it is the same thing.

Used to be 3G 2.1 had to use 2.2 for Yellowsn0w
I freaked out not knowing trick of “holding the shift command while clicking on restaure in Itunes” (allowing to chose the 2.2) It then started to update :-SSSS

So Neos like me beware!

Overwise so far so good works perfect…!!

Thanks! brilliant job!
