If you have unlocked your iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS using ultrasn0w, but having troubles afterward, men behind iPhone Dev-Team have listed solutions for your unlocked iPhone using firmware 3.0 in Ultratips, here are the troubles you are probably having now with their solutions:
- Unusual battery depletion is almost always caused by people choosing to “Restore from backup” instead of “Setup as new iPhone” when iTunes asks you. This isn’t caused by either the jailbreak or the unlock, but it’s a common 3.0 snafu. The fix is to just re-run the official 3.0 restore and choose “Setup as new” this time. Your music and apps and all that will still be synced, but you’ll get rid of any conflicting wifi, bluetooth, or carrier settings. Then just re-run redsn0w and install ultrasn0w.
- Remember, ultrasn0w works with hacktivated phones too, but don’t outsmart redsn0w into thinking you don’t need hacktivation! If you don’t plan on using an official sim, don’t activate via iTunes with such a sim. Just keep your unofficial sim at all times and let redsn0w and ultrasn0w handle hacktivation
- T-Mobile in the USA doesn’t use the 3G frequencies that the iPhones support, so turn off 3G in Settings->General->Network. (Some T-Mobile territories gracefully hand down to Edge mode, but most do not).
- Certain unofficial plans have limitations on whether you can make calls and use data at the same time. That’s not unlock-related.
- Some people have installed previous versions of ultrasn0w using non-standard techniques. While the ultrasn0w 0.9 update should have removed all previous versions of ultrasn0w, these users may have outsmarted our removal. So make sure you don’t still see /usr/bin/ultrasn0w present if you’re at ultrasn0w 0.9 (which doesn’t have such a binary anymore).
- If you don’t need or plan to update to ultrasn0w 0.9 from a previous version, you can avoid having that red badge over Cydia by removing repo666 as a Cydia source. Don’t worry, you can always add it back later If you follow us on twitter you’ll be advised of any new updates anyway.
But Dev-Team has not added the solution to fix for Push Notification System on the jailbroken iPhone’s, but who knows they may come with ones in the near future, just wait and see. Therefore keep in touch with SEO Blog & Technology to receive the next news.

I have jailbroke and unlocked my iPhone 3g using the latest dev team ultrasn0w. I have no problem except one. I have issues getting messages and calls. I’ll have full service but I have to send myself a message to recieve backed up texts and calls. I have rejailbroke and unlocked it multiple times and nothing works. Toggleing airplane mode and resetting network settings doesn’t work. I had no problems on my iPhone 2g. I just don’t know what else to do. Any advice?
