Q: iphone and 3G in China

I'm reading about iphone. I'm going to try jailbreak and unlock it myself. I read that the foreign iphone is not 3G compatible in China. It will work n WIFI tho. Is this true?
 Does anyone have suggestions for apps to add to the iphone for use in China?

The wifi & 3g portions of your iPhone will work just fine.  No worries there.  Just 3G service is a little spotty still.  Make sure you get a plan with a good roaming policy should you plan on doing any traveling.

As far as good apps, the 2 I use on a regular basis are: "Better Translator" (uses Google & Bing to do translations), useful because every now and then some government officer gets a jaotzi stuck up his bung hole and google translate gets blocked as a result.

The other one, is called little black book.  Very handy for... handling calls you don't want disturbing you at the wrong times.

To jailbreak your IPhone3G you can use this site wisejailbreak.com . To unlock your Iphone3g you can use remote unlocking method. If you want to unlock your Iphone3g using that method visit this site Prounlocking.com. As far i read some reviews in Google  i think the WiFi & 3G portions of your iPhone will work just fine.You don't need to worry there.

TedDBayer:

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
