IOS4 also need not to JB for data blockage.


Could you please explain further?

I have an Iphone 3GS, IOS4.0, not jailbreak, how do I deal with data blockage?

What I did is,

Under Settings > General > Network > Enable 3G is set OFF > Data Roaming is set OFF

Is that all I need to do to ensure no extra data charges? hmm.gif

in iOS4 you're supposed to set Cellular Data = OFF, this will turn off data totally.

mmm i thought my 500mb maxis plan was a hard cap, but it's not. happily happily use and now i'm slapped with an rm250 data bill instead of my monthly rm58 commitment.

OK I got it now.

Turning OFF the "3G & Cellular Data" = Does it mean I am on 2G/EDGE network right now? I can still send and receive MMS, am I correct?

Yup turning off 3G will allow you to be on EDGE but turning off Cellular Data will cause you to lose the ability to send and receive MMS

The only way is to turn Cellular Data off, if you don't want to have any Data to go through your iPhone. Even if you turn off 3G, your phone will automatically be connected to GPRS/EDGE. But unfortunately, turning off Cellular Data will cause the inability to send and receive MMS.
