Hi, I have a iPhone 3GS with AT&T network in USA.

I contacted Apple and they told me that only a few iPhone carriers can unlock the iPhone and Zain in one of them.

Since I am in USA, can you help me out how to get it unlocked from Zain.

Thanks
Khurram

I just put a Zain card in my jailbroke iPhone and can not get it to work. One bar of reception, if at all, and I have no audible indicators at any time. I put the card in another phone (not iPhone) and it worked. I put a working sim card from an established line in my iPhone and it did not work. Under phone settings it doesn’t even recognize the phone number. It says, “Number Unknown”.

Grr. Anyone have any suggestions? Zain has “fixed” the problem three times now to no avail.

Hi every one,
My iPhone is working properly without any problems on Zain Sudan, I think the problem with your iPhone jailbreaking (i.e. iPhone crack)

Dears,
Regarding setting up the EDGE. All you have to do is first subscribe to one of Zain GPRS subscription, then go to settings  general  EDGE  the apn should be pps the user name is pps and the password is pps.
Thank you.

Any idea if Zain fixed the problem in Bahrain (there new base). As we tried Zain on iPhone just yesterday and it had the same problem “CALLs OUT (OK) RECEIVING CALLs (NO)…” When we called the support on: 107 – they said: oh what is “iPhone”???

Good notes, talk and chat, thanks all. But please no rumors (flan gal o 3alan yegol) its either you have seen it or tried it thx.

zain issue is over on the 20th (yesterday), Vodafone is going out and new upgrades r on the way (this is the 1st one – I hope), now I have my iphone working with zain, calls in-out, SMS in-out, no Arabic display in anyways (browsing or SMS – most important).

Q:Does anyone knows how to set-up zain EDGE on the iphone?
Path: settings/general/ network

By the way, if u r not into IT work, the hack is available in hawaly for 25 KD.

So after all that talking about Zain, changing the card to 128k and problems with network. All it was needed was a patch hehe we were complaining here for days and all they did is solve it less than 24 hours, cuz a guy works in Zain came here and read your comments and posted a video. wow
The question is, would Wataniya would have done the same effort? Go to all that trouble? I leave that for you guys to answer.
Thank you all for your great attention and enjoy your iphone with Zain, I know that I will :P
