Did you guys tried to re-install Fake APN? My thinking is since maxis upgrade from 4.0 to 5.0, it might overwrite the Fake APN setting.

I dont think this is the case, as i was alr on maxis 5.0 when i got my iphone, installed it n works previously, just that currently it stops working, just like everybody does smile.gif

Wow, after finished read most of the comments here, I've started to scare and doubt about whether I should get a iPhone or not?

I'm planing to sign the RM50 iData plan, and I think I won't heavy use in internet. Maybe just facebook and download some apps.

Because I saw a lot of complains about the data usage exceeded problems. And the iPhone will auto connect to Internet by using 3G even you're not online-ing?? Even connect to internet by using WiFi will get charge too??

So anyone can please give me some suggestions? I should get it or not? or I should just go and get a iPod Touch which does not has 3G connection >.<....

Thanks.

if u planned to get an iData plan, then u do not have to worry anything of the mentioned issue, 500MB is way enug for ur usage as stated.

i am on the iValue1 plan, which gives me 500mb of data which in my experience previously with another provider is MORE THAN ENOUGH.

However, reading this thread gives me the idea that with Maxis, they are able to continuously leech your data on GPRS, EDGE and 3G...

All we've heard is that Maxis does not require cprrect APN settings to connect to EDGE/GPRS, DiGi and Celcom still requires correct APN settings to work. So yes, switching to DiGi prepaid will work.

If maxis is capable in doing this,dont think this will b a barrier to the other SP in doing this as well,the only reason others SP is not applying this might becoz iphone is maxis official device tongue.gif
