@CT, I think you need jailbreak your iPhone again. Follow the instructions mentioned in this post to get started.

Hey Simon,

So my iPhone (1st generation) was originally unlocked, but I updated today not thinking…so now when I plug it in it says “The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.” It doesn’t even show my iPhone information so I can’t click on restore or anything. Is there anything I can do to get it back to how it was before? Thanks!

@ajay, I suggest you to upgrade your phone to firmware 3.1.2. You can follow the jailbreak guide here.

Hello Simon,

Many thanks for posting the upgrade in user friendly (especially for technologically handicapped person like me) manner. I am planning to upgrade my unlocked (using Ziphone) 2G Iphone 1.1.4 version to firmware 3.0 using your steps listed above.

My questions is: Do you suggest that I follow the steps mentioned by you or do I need to do anything else (reset etc) as it is already unlocked?

Regards,

Ajay

@yone,

Yes, that’s enough. You do not need to purchase any software. All jailbreak tools are free for download.

hey simon.. i used blackrain to jailbreak it… but it says that it has done it.. and comes up with the ‘thank you for using blackrain’ screen at the end and the ‘done.. wait for reboot’ but doesn’t ever reboot?
and the blackrain icon is not on the iphone….. i have jailbroked before successfully on the same phone (before upgrade) but can’t seem to get it right this time…
thanks for your time

@belinda, did you use blacksn0w to unlock it? After blackra1n jailbreak, you can launch cydia and download blacksn0w to unlock your phone.
