I think it's more a case of him updating the iPhone to version 2.0 firmware via iTunes, and part of this process requires it to try and activate the phone again, which is where it's failing.

What he needs to do is unlock and/or jailbreak the phone again. I'd suggest that he goes here and downloads Pwnage 2.0.1, then go here and read the tutorial for using Pwange.

If that doesn't work you can send it to me and I'll fix it on a No Fix No Fee basis.

Ziphone software will unlock and jail break a iphone and also install the installer app on the phone. I done it on an iphone i had.

ZiPhone can also cause serious problems that a one button solution just can't fix. I've spent a long eight hours recovering an iPhone.
