Thanx a lot for this guide. I have successfully jailbreaked and unlocked my iphone 2G. however, I am facing a problem with my location services. My “Maps” application is unable to find my location and so are other softwares that require my location. Can you help me with this?
I guess your carrier is not supporting to these services. Just try using another sim card.
Mine also has this problem. It is not a carrier problem. My sim locates in a different phone just fine. Only the blacksn0w/blackra1n one has this problem.
