even though you disable everything, the data seems still flows to your iPhone

hi @jingyong

Is your iPhone JB or not ? Your Cellular Data Network counter reads the same as maxis punya usage ?

hello, i found this while helping my friend upgrading his iPhone from 3.0.1 to 3.1.2...
He JB his phone already. installed fakeAPN, so no data can get trough.

After upgrade to 3.1.2, the setting in cellular data network have entry for APN etc, so i try to browse, no network for data.. thats kewl.
i reset the network setting everything, APN are left to blank, no mms setting all are blank, i tried to browse, walla wei... i can browse even there are no entry for APN. then i try put some junk setting for APN, still can browse...
means anything we put in garbage setting in APN, the data network will still work ? wah.. how to totally block it( rather than ask your provider to cut 3G service).

this was tested on Celcom as provider.

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??

I tried no 1, your data still jalan.

no 2, even you off 3g & edge , data also jalan (im using iphone 3g, fw 3.1.2 JB) - the best way - subs to data service smile.gif

Little circle is Egde. Both Edge and 3G will costs you a bomb if you have no contract or plan on Data.

sorry for interruption. to clarify on those who didnt know,

3G sign after your carrier name means you're on 3G network
E for edge
and small o is for GPRS.
