Many people who own an iphone 3G model are desperate in getting it unlocked. Mostly, people face a similar situation when they violate the company’s service contract, with regard to first generation (2G) phones. Since there are many such people who are caught up in this act there are companies who want to help them out. Hence, we see a lot of companies advertising their service with regard to unlocking the iphone. But before we opt for such services, we should be very careful about its reliability. Otherwise you might end up corrupting your iphone. Some companies are charging a lot for the application without any proof or total solution. Hence, be careful while you offer your iphone to vendors who claim to unlock it.

Since unlocking a locked phone becomes an issue, I would advice people to buy an unlocked phone from the market and then get the choice of getting your SIM card from the service provider who is likely to give you the best deal. But before you buy an unlocked phone you should be able to distinguish between a carrier unlocked phone and a factory unlocked one. Even if you use pirated software to unlock your locked phone, you might face certain issues. For example: If you try to access the WAP or GPRS services, the phone may prevent the settings, may not accept your request or you may face a situation whereby the phone may not comply with your request or automatically gets to connected to another service provider. In order to prevent from getting stucked with such a situation, you should buy factory unlocked mobile handsets from a reliable vendor. .

It is a known fact that an iphone 3G model cannot be unlocked via software. There is a company which can unlock the 3G iphone by a SIM solution based method. The company has come out with a special SIM card which has particular software incorporated in it. The unlock procedure works on a so called “piggy back SIM” method. This special SIM card is very thin and it’s about 0.1mm in thickness. You have to take this special SIM card and slide over the present SIM card which you are already using. Once you perform this act, you will find your 3G iphone being unlocked. The special designed SIM card basically fools the iphone into thinking that the original SIM card has been inserted into the concerned 3G Iphone. .

You don’t require any software to perform the unlock process for the 3G version iphone. The unlock procedure is as simple as opening your SIM tray and inserting the unlock SIM on top of your existing SIM. There is no special knowledge required for performing this simple plug and play solution. You can also reverse the unlock position by just removing the special unlock SIM and your phone is back as per the original factory settings. The unlock based SIM card works with all GSM networks and carriers worldwide. In order to open the 3G iphone’s SIM tray, you can use a small paper clip. Just press the paper clip into the little whole or top of your iphone. Then, push it downwards by applying a little force. Your SIM card will then pop out immediately. The company provides full unlock solution for all iphone versions currently up to 2.1 for use on any network. You can thus use any carrier, any service provider, and any SIM card in any country. .

Remember, a 2G ( first generation) iphone can be unlocked by using a software. However, a 3G version iphone can be unlocked by using a special SIM card which is developed by the concerned company. It unlocks the 3G iphone after you have just placed your special SIM on the present SIM which you have just placed your special SIM on the present SI which you are using. Thus, the only reliable solution to unlock the iphone 3G fully is through this “piggy back SIM “.
