I just found this site, it’s from Taiwan (English site).
And it’s all about iphone stuff, it is how I unlock my iphone.
I think it’s got a lot of information, check it out~ :discodance: :discodance:

if your phone is already jailbroken, they have a Cydia Repo with lots of ringtones and themes.
Instructions for dummies (like me):
Jailbreaking and unlocking for the iPhone 2G with OS3.0 :
Unlock/Jailbreak iPhone 2g OS 3.0 Using RedSn0w on Windows Mac
Just done, worked fine. Make sure to backup your contacts, sms etc. via iTunes first. Then update your iPhone to OS3.0 using SHIFT+Restore in iTunes before running redsn0w.
Be patient when it redsn0w says it’s done and prompts you to click “Finish”, the phone will still be busy for a while. When it’s ready you can use iTunes to restore your data.
Alternative instructions (not tested)
This worked a charm to JB the 3G iphone with Redsn0w on a mac. Seems ultrasnow is only needed if you need an unlock as well. Either way, redsn0w allows you to apply ultrasn0w.
in case anyone has the old 2g, MMS is now available same as 3G/3GS version, woot! hackint0sh.org/forum/f201/76905.htm
I beg your geekgods pardon for asking this question, BUT I am trying to learn as I have an iphone too… Unlocking (jailbreaking) the phone allows one to do what? Use networks other than AT&T with the phone?

If you bought your phone in NZ, Taiwan, HK and now Australia, amongst a few other countries, your phone will be unlocked straight out of the box. So yes, unlocking the phone allows one to use networks other than AT&T with the phone. Jailbreaking allows you to add third party apps through installer programs placed onto your phone after the jailbreak (programs inclide cidia and ice depending on which jailbreak you used). Then there’s the whole ‘cracked app’ thing which you could probably google rather than bring up for discussion here.
Thanks for graciously answering that question for me. I realize that it’s probably a “doh! Are you kidding me?!” type question for you all. Cheers!
