Even though 3G was broken with ixtab's 5.1.2 images with preinstalled "frills", his "factory" 5.0.0 images fixed my 3G. I was still registered with amazon after downgrading firmware.

And with no installed hacks, I pulled up the Google website using 3G (via the "normal" social networking loophole). I was tempted to do a screenshot, but no need to "overpublicize" this loophole, or they might close it. It should only be used for emergency access anyway...

Now we just need to upgrade to 5.1.2, and install the same hacks as ixtab's 5.1.2, then compare images to see what is different between broken 3G and working 3G.

@giorgio130: Thanks for the pointer! I just noticed that you had less than 2600 karma. I just multiplied your karma by 12, so that situation has been rectified.
