This tutorial shows step by step unlocking a first generation iPhone running firmware 2.0. The device is equipped with a NETLOCK T-Mobile, which may take the legal reasons not to be removed. Therefore happens only Jailbreak and Unlock no.
Jailbreak
1. A working iPhone with firmware 2.0 installed.
2. Mac OS X (for Windows users, however, there is something!).
3. The appropriate firmware 2.0 for iPhone 2G (218 MB).
4. The bootloader files 3.9 and 4.6.
Using PwnageTool?
There are thousands of tutorials on the internet of how to use pwnageTool but I will describe the process and the way I understood it:
1. Connect the iPhone to your computer, open iTunes and make a backup of the iPhone.
2. Open the program PwnageTool, choose simple, basic which makes almost everything automatically. Just point the model of your device in PwnageTool. It shows the figure of the iPhone 2G, iPod Touch and iPhone 3G, just click the picture to pick up and continue.
3. From there the PnageTool will automatically find the correct firmware for your device, you must confirm to continue.
If you go to unlock the operator you need the bootloader files. The best way to identify is making the jailbreak first and then released. On the Mac PwnageTool will automatically detect the PC but you should download the internet (link here (version 3.0)). If you already did the jailbreak use 3G via Cydia Downgrade Fuzzyband to see the version of bootloader and can search the Internet.
4. Where to unlock the iPhone (people who bought the iPhone with its operators can ignore that), suppose you have the files of the bootloader and then PwnageTool will ask you to search the computer for the local them. Following the jailbreak in front, now reports that the PwnageTool will create the image.
Click "Yes" to continue. Remember the location where you save this image.
5. To whom is unlocked to carrier, when PwnageTool asks "Are you legit iPhone user?" You should answer "No". To jailbreak you can press "Yes".
6. Now PwnageTool builds a new image of the iPhone, everything on your computer without affecting your machine. The process should take about 5 minutes. Be patient.
For Mac users the PwnageTool asks the operating system password, simply enter it to continue.
7. Now another question, if your iPhone has been pwned before, or if you already unlocked or did jailbreak earlier. If you do not know, simply answer "No".
8. Now one of the most important steps since the PwnageTool makes your iPhone into the mode of repair, called "DFU mode", but then we need your help by pressing the buttons on / off in conjunction with the "home" for 10 seconds after releasing the button on / off and keeping the "home" for another 10 seconds.
Do not worry because if you can not do at the right time he can try again.
9. If everything worked, you get into DFU mode and your iPhone is ready to be unlocked. The Pwnage Tool has created an image software on your iPhone containing the release and to be able to finish your iTunes to restore this file "unlocked."
10. Now enter in iTunes to restore your iPhone. Logo of guy that tells iTunes detected an iPhone in DFU mode and you need to restore. But instead of using the normal backup, the image file created by Pwnage Tool.
Click the button to restore by holding the key "shift" of the PC or "option" of the Mac to open a screen where you can get the image on your computer to be used in restoration.
11. Your iPhone will be restored, it does not disconnect the computer until the process ends. Be patient until the process ends. If a problem you can always restore your phone through iTunes, not just alt-click the option button in time to restore.
If everything worked, your iPhone is unlocked and jailbreak. Now you can install programs via Cydia that is a program installed on the iPhone (just open and look at your iPhone Cydia).
