ok guys, i just restored / jailbreak / install ultrasn0w all over again just to cover if i had left any of the tutorial steps..so now its working, guess i did missed sumthing. anyways, i already sent n mms to my iphone but nothing happen, are there any mms configurations i need to input 1st ? like nokia / se n all, we need to save the configuration files n whatnot to activate d mms settings rite, so..is it the same for iphone ? text messaging works great tho..

usually for the maxis the setting come by default, for others you need to manual setting the network/apn thingy i your iphone.

here is the link where you can update your carrier and hopefully you can mms tethering etc on the iphone.

cant see d link bro..

erk, haha, sorry i forgot to put it..

Help.. any shop doing this? i dont have my AT&T sim with me so i cant just update with itunes.. my fon is locked but im just using gevey.. lol help?

You don't need AT&T sim to activate.

Just follow this guide http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=4301 to Jalibreak

and this guide http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=4253 to unlock.

You don't need to pay people to do it.

Try checking within cydia's installed packages. You may be able to uninstall it within Cydia.

@callmevil: you can do everything on your own. just follow the tutorial/guide on post 4. you don't need your AT&T sim to make it work.

@tornad0: kindly refrain from posting the same question in two different threads. discussions regarding Cydia/Icy here.

i cant do step 2 as it only says "The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to bla bla bla"

Carrier : Maxis
Is 3G working : yup
Is MMS working : yup
Is tethering working : sweet n nice
Other Information/Remarks : nice and easy...

why when i try to restore my iphone theres an error?

guyz, i used the restore file from a CD Maxis gave me, just now it works just fine, jailbreak / unlock n everything, but then when i tried to restore my contacts / sms / notes / calendar.. my phone became unstable, it keeps on switching on n off on the Slide To Unlock screen. so, again..i restored n jailbreak..its fine, but now i cant get maxis signal, again. reinstalled ultrasn0w couple of times, restarted couple of times.. still..nothing..

Did you update to itunes 8.2?

tried this?

you have to use redsnow to activate the phone and the problem will be solve, try it.

we are not mind reader or telepathy person who can read your thought about the error. kindly give us a much as info and we will try our best to help you.


do you restore using itunes or restore manually? if restore manually try to use the method teikwing show you.

Successfully unlocked mine. Took around 30 minutes.

Carrier : Maxis
Is 3G working : Yes
Is MMS working : Yes
Is tethering working : Don't have unlimited 3G plan so didn't get to try it out
Other Information/Remarks : Works like a charm. A big thanks to the Dev Team.

using itunes 8.2 bro. still no luck for me after last nite. is it possible dat my iphone is faulty ?

ok guys, i've read everything all over again n it seems i missed this one step, but im not sure if it will solve d prob im having, so just to make it clear..
-do i need to take out my simcard during restore ? (coz i did restore my phone b4 this with sim card in my iphone n it works great)
-do i have to insert my simcard during jailbreak / redsn0w ?

plz guys, maybe if u can clear things up for me, it will be a great help. thx.

if u really need some service, u can always msg Hanxz.

can i ask u something.....? where did ur iphone come from?

its not from local / original factory unlocked. n i have never used turbosim or whatnot b4 this. it works great, fine with yellowsn0w..infact, i did receive a signal right after i restore to 3.0 / jailbreak / unlock it for d 1st time, then when i got some probs with the phone, i did d restore again n now i cant seem to get the signal anymore.
