How to unlock iphone 3gs from vodaphone network
I have an Iphone 3gs that is locked to vodaphone currently. When I asked for it to be unlocked from vodaphone they said it was not eligible. The phone was on ready to go service and I was with them long enough to then move network if I wanted to do so. Any ideas how to get the phone unlocked. I have given the phone to my son but he can't use it.
Sorry yeah it is from Ireland. I have sent Vodaphone a request form online with the IMEI number which they say will take 7-11 days to return. From my previous attempts I don't hold out much hope.

How to upgrade iphone 3GS from 3.0.1 to 3.1.3
how to upgrade iphone 3GS from 3.0.1 to 3.1.3
I dont want to upgrade it to 4.0 yet.
Just up to 3.1.3 from 3.0.1
how can i do it.That's because Apple is no longer signing v3.1.3 nor any firmware other than iOS4. You could try following a downgrade to v3.1.3, see these:

it worked in US with a sprint sim card. i am very sure that it wasnt jailbroken. then how this happened. plz explain me what i should do
A: There is no such thing as an unlocked iPhone 3Gs in the United States. ALL iPhone 3Gs's sold in the US are locked to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones, therefore it is not legitimately unlocked.
B: Sprint is a CDMA network as others have mentioned. They do NOT use SIM cards. The iPhone 3Gs will NEVER work on Sprint. Ever. It's not physically possible.
Either your Uncle misunderstood or he was mislead. Send it back and tell him to get his money back. Buy an iPhone in India from a supported carrier. -

India.Only the carrier that originally sold the phone can unlock it.
Apple does not unlock iPhones without the express consent of the carrier.
You will need to contact the carrier you originally purchased the device from and find out what they require to unlock the device, IF they will unlock it.

Yes, they work perfectly fine.
pushpinder wrote:

You can, you can do anything you like. However, Apple will not replace your device because it is carrier locked, there is nothing wrong with it.
Also, keep in mind that the iPhone warranty is only valid in the country where the iPhone was originally sold by Apple or their authorized reseller. -

How do I unlock I phone from vodaphone network
How do I unlock a phone currently on the vodaphone network.
SuzYou are using another Vodaphone SIM card with a different number from the original SIM card and number the iPhone was originally authorized with?
It shouldn't make any difference, but you need to contact Vodaphone which is the only party that can officially unlock an iPhone that was sold as carrier locked with Vodaphone. -

Help Unlock iphone 3gs from Moscow Russia
Good afternoon. At me here such problem. One and a half years ago
To me have brought from England and have presented iphone 3gs with contract O2. How to me to make оффициальную an unblocking iphone that I could use sim cards of local communications service providers? I live in Russia, the city of Moscow. To go to England and to make there an unblocking at operator О2 I have no possibility. To do джейлбрейк and to put unlock I don't want!!! Help please.
In advance many thanks also excuse me for my English.
P.s. Still a problem with a sound. Silently sounds динамик at calls and music listening.No problems with your English - my Russian would be much worse.
If you have paid your full contract period with O2 in the UK, then they may be willing to unlock it for you. They can charge £15 I believe but its free if you are still inside your contract term.
There is no other legal way for the phone to be unlocked - Apple will not do it for you.
If you still have your contract details, then you can go to the O2 website and chat with an operator there.
If you do not have the details then you are probably stuck as you are. -

@Media selector in CSS: how to tell iPhone 3Gs from iPad
Hi all,
I have a question concerning the capabilities of the @media selector.
From what I read in the documentation, @media, in AIR, supports these parameters
- os-platform (IOS, AND, MAC, WIN)
- application-dpi (160 = less than 200; 240=less then 280: 320: more than 280)
how does one tell if the device is iPhone 3gs or iPad?
both are IOS, both have application-dpi less than 200 (163 for iPhone 3, 132 for iPad)
it would be useful to use max-device-width, but I guess it's not supported? it's not working for me...
thanx!I've just fell on my face with the same problem. Apparently, there is no way to have different styles for iPhone 3GS and iPad inside the same application. @media selector does not let you do that. It wouldn't be a big problem if we could use theme swf files the same way we use them in Flash. But we can't do that either because loading executable code (which the theme swf is) won't work on iOS due to security restrictions. Please correct me if I wrong but it means that you can't have one application binary with different styles for iPhone 3GS and iPad.
What makes it worse, it is not that easy to reorganize your project to build two applications: one for iPhone 3GS, another for iPad using the same application project and different build scripts (ant). It would be possible if we could link a theme compiled as SWC library. But it doesn't seem to work if you have references to skin classes and images in your css. At least after multiple trials I couldn't make it work.
The only solution that comes to mind is to have two application projects: one for iPhone 3GS, another one for iPad. And keep everything else in libraries. I wish I could see its coming earlier so I would organize my project that way from the beginning.
It seems like a major flaw in design of the media selector. And not just because you can't support both iPhone 3GS and iPad in one application. For the same reasons you can't have different styles for iPhone 4/4S and new high resolution iPad (both have 320 dpi screens). It would be pretty easy to fix by just adding an additional tag to the media selector.
I wish I was wrong and there is a solution for this problem already. Please share your experience if you had the same issue.
