Need a specific Iphone 3G [S] !!!

POSTED BY: amzmalhotra 3 weeks, 1 day ago

I'm getting a brand new iphone 3GS as a present on thursday, it will be my first iphone.

I am guessing it will have the new bootroom, (for those who dont know, it means that it was made after week 40 and is more difficult to jailbreak.)
Now I want an untethered jailbreak and unlock which I can do with blackra1n and blacksn0w, but if I have a new 3GS, it will be a tethered jailbreak.

Assuming, it has the new bootroom, is there a way that I could take it, still sealed, to an O2 shop to exchange for an older one?

OR

Could I buy a 3GS, making sure it is an older one.... and then later return the one I got as a present? The receipt must not thave the serial or IMEI for this. Does anyone know what the O2 iphone receipts are like?

Does anyone have another way of getting one?

the o2 iphone receipts do have the IMEI number on it to what i remember when i bought the 3g a year ago. Im pretty sure the serial number was there aswell or something similar to that, they have to protect themselves

Thanks for the info
Damn, I really don't want a tethered jailbreak!

Any ideas anyone?

I don't mean wifi tethering.

I mean 'tethered' in the sense of the jailbreak.

There is not currently any available untethered jailbreak for the new bootroom.

YES - I know about all of the jailbreaks including Blackra1n and the new unlock, Blacksn0w which was released yesterday, but that gives a TETHERED jailbreak to the 3GS's with the new bootroom.

I want an UNTETHERED jailbreak.

Thanks for trying tho!
