You'll need to install SAMprefs and provide your phone with the proper APN settings. You can go to www.unlockit.co.nz, and look up Red Pocket's APN settings, them fill the appropriate fields out through SAMprefs from Cydia

ok thanks I have red pocket's APN just not sure i can jailbreak it and if so what jailbreak to use and can it be untethered. if i am correct it will be Redsn0w 0.9.15b3 and will i need this Step 2: Download iOS 6.0 firmware file (yes, the trick is to point Redsn0w to the iOS 6.0 firmware file and NOT iOS 6.1.6 firmware file) for your iOS device from the links mentioned below: thanks for your response. and will this be the correct file 6.1.6 (iPhone 3GS): iPhone2,1_6.1.6_10B500_Restore.ipsw

Yes. Because the Dev Team (@Evad3rs) has not updated RedSn0w to support 6.0.1-6.1.6, but the overall code in the iOS revolves around 6.0, you'll have to select the 6.0 IPSW. This tutorial shows you step-by-step how to do it

OK thank you very much for your response you have been very helpful. Now if I don't screw it all up maybe I can use what I pay for lol.

[idontgetit]

[idontgetit]

updated itunes and tried again and it did restore it so any idea what went wrong only thing I did that i was not sure on was where it ask if it was a newer 3gs i said no because according to serial # it was made in week 28 is that correct to answer no? I used Redsn0w 0.9.153b and this Iphone2,1_6.0_10a403 restore ipsw. or was i supposed to use this ispw 6.1.6 (10B500) modem firmware 05.16.08.

 

[idontgetit]

under general on my phone at version says 6.1.6 (10B500) and modem firmware says 05.16.08.

I ran redsn0w again it completed phone is working and cydia is installed and working a little confused though i thought this would be tethered jailbreak untill i install p0sixspawn but cydia works every time i reboot the phone untethered. so now how do i install SAMprefs? i tried searching for it in cydia no luck. or am i that confused as to what SAMprefs is i thought it was so i can enter info that will allow me to use my red pocket data.

all this and all i have to do is go red pocket and install a app damn. i think data works the weather updated but safari says it could not connect to server.
