quick question for you guys. my mate got a upgrade so has given me his old iphone 3g on 02. im with orange so tried to jailbreak it so I could unlock it to orange.

Its on 4.21, I jailbreaked it using redsnow and upgraded the baseband to 6.15 the ipad one. However when I go into cydia to find ultrasnow to unlock it so I can use my orange sim in it, ultrasnow isnt there.

Also I have checked a few websites and you can download ultrasnow from cydia but the wifi on the phone doesnt work

Anyone got any ideas on what to do? Ive spent about 3 hours this afternoon arsing about with it and not got anywhere, hopfully one of you iphone fans can help me out here, cheers

Why don't you just restore it to proper firmware through iTunes. Then just pay the £15 or whatever it is to have it unlocked properly by the network/Apple so it can be used on any network?

Put it in DFU mode then let itunes do a restore.
