I have an old iPhone 3G which I purchased in Canada and it was locked for three years to Rogers, a service provider.

Last month, I stopped the service and moved to the US. I was not able to use the iPhone because it was still bundled with a Canadian service provider and could not even go into the operating system.

I called the service provider but they won't help me unlock because I've stopped the service.

What can I do now?

Ha! As if Rogers would unlock it even if you did still have service with them. – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Jun 15 '11 at 21:30

If memory serves me correctly you should have installed the firmware 4.2.1 on 3G! To unlock the phone and the only way 'to make the Jailbreack!

The programmer chpwn has created a web site where you can see if you can unlock your iPhone at http://caniunlock.com. Look there, and also at http://jailbrea.kr for jailbreak information. Good luck!
