If I mod my iPhone and trick it into thinking it's activated, is there a way for me to activate it on AT&T's network afterward? I've heard that updating the firmware will remove all mods, but will my iPhone still work on EDGE and as an actual cell phone if I mod it before actual activation? In other words: can I un-activate it after modding so I can activate it for AT&T?
Activate iPhone for AT&T after modding?

alright, I'm actually trying to so it right now, but when my phone reconnects to iTunes it unlocks it! I tried deleting all my backup versions, and I'm doing restore/recovery again, but I just need to find a way to undo the unliocking. That shouldn't be hard, right?
iTunes keeps unlocking it! I deleted all my backups, I'm scared! Is there anywhere with instructions on how to un-unlock an iPhone?!
did you try a full restore by holding power and home until the yellow triangle comes up then pull the usb cord and plug it back in while still holding them then let go... it should say in iTunes that it is in recovery mode and must restore... should set it to factory settings
I put it in recovery mode every time, but now I got it back to the "Activate iPhone" screen. (After 4 long tries) I'm now trying to activate using iTunes, but I keep getting an error saying "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. A secure network connection could not be established. Make sure SSL 3.0 or TSL 1.0 is enabled in the Internet Options control panel, then try again." I checked Apple.com, checked my firewall, my settings, Control Panel, and #iPhone. I ran a diagnostic on iTunes and it said it was fine. I can access the iTunes store, but not activate my iPhone. I even reinstalled my iTunes, rebooted, unistalled iTunes, installed newer iTunes, rebooted, and reinstalled that. I'm going to kill someone.
