Someone who's successfully unlock, please let us know the indicators, do you need to restore etc?
I'm sure we are all waiting with great anticipation

Was just making an interesting observation buddy  No-ones demanding anything 
I remember with older 3G phones (of course none had a proper browser like Safari) the 3 Portal managed to somehow format itself to the screen.

I'm guessing no SMS for you yet either? I'm guessing there were quite a few on Friday. Hopefully mine will come through soon, although I have to see if non-USIM's will work in the phone. hopefully they will (not for 3G just for 2G)

Has anyone tried to put their Optus SIM back in the phone after having it successfully unlocked and it working under 3, to see that it hasn't been SIM-locked to 3 (as someone earlier mentioned it might be - can't remember the thread sorry).....

Err, what time is it where you are?
And do you have nother 3 phone to compare signal strength with? There's no resaon that the iPhone's signal strength on 3 should be worse than any other phone on 3 ...

Hrmm
Just spent the last 20mins on the phone to Optus, and basically they've said they cant provide me with my reference number as there isn't one, but the request was defiantly submitted on July 11th, it shows that it's "Pending" in the system... so im wondering how many other's on here submitted there requests on July 11th and are still waiting...
Cheers,
SiriX |

I got through to the Optus iPhone guru. He told me to do the restore. It takes ages. I did my restore with the 3 sim in but I don't think it makes a difference.
