yeap truee..

got a cases to share here n wanna ask u guys opinion..

my subline is using iphone.btw its a non-contract 3g phne. n she did online via wifi only.unfortunately maxis still charge on the data usage on the 1st mnth after using the iphone..its bout 150++ n she did not use any 3g connection to go on the net..so i call the customer service at 123..wishing to disconnect the 3g service for the main line n subline...to be safe, she also disable the 3g from the setting of the phne.

ok..life goes on that month.

the 2nd motnh

ok, hrmm when the bill for the 2nd month (2nd month of subline using iphne), the freaking maxis still charge on the data call and its stil bout 130++..
i decided to go to maxis service centre at taman tun..after talking to a nice lady there.she mentioned to me, whenever any wireless connection is low, even the signals on the iphne shows 2 bar, it will automatically switch n connect to 3g service to surf the net smoothly. it must be 3 full bar for you not being charged using the wireless.. then i ask her, how bout if i have disconnected the 3g service (remember wat i did on the previous month) n she replied an answer that shocked to me mentioning that, even though u have dscnncted the 3g service, because the phone is 'so' intelligent, it will automatically enable the 3g that has been disconnected and connect to net through the service..so disconnecting ur 3g service is not a solution.thats y we have data package for contract phne (cehh). By the way, i cant see any termination of 3g service for ur accounts since may 2008 (damn you 1st maxis guy. he didnt terminate the 3g)...

next, i ask the solution..she mentioned to me 2 things :

1) if u scared to go online with being charge, enable ur airplane mode during wifi connection.with that ur net its 100% depends on the wireless.however, if u enable airplane mode during surfing, u are not able to receive/make calls, sms n etc as it blocks ur network.

2) jailbreak ur iphne, find a software name bosspref.there is a setting to disable 3g. (this is a proper solution).

im gonna JB soon n sees what happens...


so guyss..any thought??
