After playing around with the new firmware and taking some screen shots I ran into something very interesting for us TrinBagonians. Here is a screen shot of the Region Formats setting in the International Settings in firmware 3.0.

It clearly shows Trinidad and Tobago as an option. Even though the formatting they have seems to be incorrect (4085551212), it’s a great sign that either Digicel, bMobile or AmericaMovil (see update below) are going to be selling and servicing the iPhone Next Gen.

I have installed the 3.0 Beta on my iPhone 2G that was Unlocked via PWNAGE Tool on firmware 2.2.1. I downloaded the 3.0 Beta IPSW and used the shift/alt and click Update (NOT RESTORE) and updated my 2G to 3.0. The process was smooth even though it took very long. I was able to kepp the unlock and activation, but I lost Cydia and the Jailbreak.

Update

I am being told by a friend who is a good source of Telecom Info here in Trinidad and he is telling/remindaing me that AmericaMovil aka Claro is coming to Trinidad and currently carries the iPhone in Jamaica and other Caribbean and South American Countries. Claro bought the rights to Laqtel’s 3G license recently here in Trinidad and Tobago and is currently in negotiations with TSTT on placing antenna on TSTT towers. So we will see how soon we get the iPhone and from whom.
