iPhone + T-Mobile + Google Voice


(first photo with my iPhone)

I just wanted to jot this down in case I need it again soon.

  • Purchased an iPhone 3G from Ebay.
  • Plugged in an old AT&T sim card with no service to get to the home screen.
  • Used iTunes to upgrade the phone to 3.0.
  • With instructions from iphone-hacks.com, I ran Redsn0w to jailbreak and ultrasn0w to unlock.
  • Installed Google Voice with Cydia and it works!

You can not get 3G with T-Mobile but Edge works. Email works great, Safari is a little slow, Youtube is very slow.
