QUOTE(irwan6179 @ Sep 13 2007, 08:54 PM) derred, i don't know u get urself an iphone too. I got mine 2 days ago. 8gb one. Nice heh... my iphone is still naked. I don't wanna dress it until i found some skin that worth the iphone. I managed to unlock it .. it took me a whole evening from zero to unlock using the newly found free software unlock. I restored and re-unlocked like 4-5 times already. just to play with it and tried to use different sim. I'm using regular at&t family plan (20usd permonth) instead of the one with iphone data plan(which cost around 40 permonth ). I dont use edge so much so i dont think it worth to take the data plan. Unlock experience: I tried to use maxis simcard after unlock. I can't even connect. maybe because it's under roaming in the US. But i manage to make my iphone work with non-iphone simcard/plan. irwan, and how did you unlock it? is it the one posted on engadget.com? how did you not take the iPhone data plan? thanks. |

QUOTE(derred @ Sep 14 2007, 03:29 PM) That means that he won't have EDGE and stuff. His plan will only allow him to have WiFi and normal calling times. But we don't know if he manages to hack that. How come you got all the times in the world? Ah forgot u r from S.I.T, damn u. So ideoteque, that doesnt mean he skipped AT&T totally, he did that bcoz he still wants to use with AT&T but just the basic plan. Derred, I am aware that he still uses AT&T plan. But do they allow us to skip the data plan and go ahead with the basic minutes. It is not a bad idea to go with that plan instead.  Ideoteque |

QUOTE(derred @ Sep 14 2007, 05:40 PM) I see, it depends on usage. If ur thinking online flexibility meaning online anywhere u like so adding 20 bucks is not so bad imo.
Added on September 15, 2007, 6:45 amAs existing customer, whatever u pay now plus 20 bucks on top of that. That is d way to do without unlocking it Hmm I wonder. I just spoke to an ATT representative, she told me that iPhone cannot be purchased without 2years contract+data plan. That's weird. Maybe she's a newbie. That's interesting, though. Thanks irwan for the steps. When I get myself an iPhone, I will get back to you for indepth instructions. Derred, Go State! haha |

I have been looking for the software that could disable edge on hackintosh but couldnt find textedit thingy. Tried other things such as deedge which i found on google website,but had a problem half way through.
can anyone give me a specific url? Thanks.
(I'm typing using my iphone hehe its pretty neat)
Added on September 22, 2007, 10:26 pmNevermind, I found a way to disable EDGE.
Just for future reference, whoever unlocks his iPhone and refuses to subscribe to any data plan, you might want to disable EDGE on your iPhone so that they won't ridiculously charge you per kb of data sent and received from your iphone.
The steps:
Using any GUI (contohnya Ibrickr atau textEdit on your iPhone.
1. Open /var/root/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist in your editor (Notepad) of choice.
2. Look for the string "apn". This will be followed by "wap.cingular".
3. Delete the "." in "wap.cingular".
4. Restart the phone.
5. When you try to connect via EDGE, it will fail.
6. To reinstate EDGE service, open the file again and insert the "." between "wap" and "cingular", then restart the phone.
The end. Phew, now I can do my homework and watch football.
