OK i got a iPhone 3 from a guy at work who got it from a freind when he got the phone it was unlocked and working.
since then he had tried to do a either a restore or repair through i tunes and now it turns on but it says about inserting a Sim card
i have tried using a at&t Sim and t mobile Sim, it does get rid of the Sim message but it will go to emergency dialing only.
the screen shows a lock at the top center.
i have tried i tunes, redsnow and tiny umbrellas and snowbreeze but nothing detects the iPhone.
i have repeatedly tried to put it it dfu mode but from what i understand is that the screen should be black but the
only thing i can get once in a while is just a usb cable with i tunes to show up on the screen.
things i know about the phone
it was ulnlock
it was fine till he tried to reset it
to be honest i dont know anything about iPhone being a android user and windows man but i would like to get it working if only to play games and use as a mp3 player so please help.
thanks Ben
