      Your best bet is to upgrade to 4.2.1 firmware...this will give you an Untethered jailbreak plus access to all the best apps coming out of Cydia eg Celeste

        I'm not sure if I unlocked it or not.....

        I guess I would prefer to unlock it incase I give this to someone else at a later date.

        What is the difference when upgrading like?

            Unlocking an iPhone to any network is dependant on your baseband. If your lucky enough to be on an unlockable baseband you must learn how to "preserve your baseband" while upgrading / downgrading firmware. Do your homework first.

                u can download snowbreeze where u can create a customer firmware whilst preserving the baseband so u can still unlock the phone with ultrasn0w
