hello there guys,

i just bought a 1.1.4 Iphone,

every thing works fine but only the Wifi features. i am currently using a 014 service, itune 7.6.2.9

and when ever i want to logon to the internet "safari" or "mail" a pop up will appear from no where saying
"safari can't open the page because it can't find the server" and follow by "could not active EDGE: you are not subscribed to EDGE" however there are some times i can connect to the Wifi but in most cases i cant

however i dont think there is any thing wrong with the connection because i can connect to the Wifi via my laptop (but not the iPhone)
and just to add on, i still cant connect to the wif (iphone) thought i am standing right beside the router

abang...ur using 014 Digi or Maxis?? if Digi...go to Settings--->General--->network--->>EDGE---->> in the APN put diginet....that will solve ur prob..

hey there thank you for posting,
sorry to mention but i am using a 014 Maxis. thank you.

bro,try to install bossprefs.then,switch off ur edge connection and switch on ur wifi connection.perhaps that would solve ur probs,bro.good luck.

hello there, may i know if there is any alternatives to curb this bug instead of installing the "bossprefs" thingy? Thanks

hurm...actually your iphone should use wifi if there's wifi connection presents.if not,it will try to connect using edge.by default,u have to get into the settings menu,and switch on and connect to your wifi manually.but,the second time u're gonna connect,u just have to switch on the wifi button only.your wifi won't connect automatically if u set it at OFF.

I have the same problem as well.. googled for the solutions and found a couple of tips which requires reseting the network settings to factory settings.. not sure if its gonna work.. yet.. anyone able to connect to public wifi service before? e.g wifi service at Starbucks/Coffee Bean/Dome ? EDGE is kinda slow for Maxis and it'll be better if can connect to a wifi service..

Don't expect the iPhone to have the exactly same connection speed with you notebook cause sometimes the length of the antenna is different.

well for your info i did exactly the thing u mention "connect manually" and i dont think I am having any problem with the manual connection cuz after the manual connection, i can c a "tick" on the network provider.
however when i search through the net...the pop up appear. N stating "m not subscribe to EDGE" n kinda stuff...pls helpppp

i also facing this kind of problem. before this i can connect to my house wifi. but somehow after i use my edge to connect to internet ,i cant use my wifi anymore to connect to my home wifi.

wtf.....who can help this....i think our problem is same.
but after reset all the network setting also same....zzzzz

this is a common prob in iphone after unlocking.... get iLiberty+...the inside there is one payload called DevTeam Grey Wifi Fix.....install that and u can try ur wifi again...after i unlock my iphone lasttime also liddat after installing that no more problem....gud luck..

When I first got the iPhone I always connected to Edge instead of the public wi-fi when I go for out coffee. It got really expensive cos I was downloading alot of things. So I installed 'Services' which allows me to switch off my Edge.

Then after awhile I couldn't reconnect to Edge when I was at a place with no wi-fi. So I went to Settings - General - Reset - Reset Network Settings and that resolved it all. Now I can use either Edge or wi-fi through my 'Services'. I normally switch off everything and only switch it on when I want to connect.

And to answer Obee's question if anyone can use wi-fi's at Starbucks, Dome etc, yes, I always connect at public wi-fi's and have no problem.

mine same too... i just restore my iphone to 1.1.4 then now can connect to wifi but cant use ... how ??

From your statement seems like u r so sure it's because of the unlocking method used. Well to tell u the truth ... its not from that and your suggestion for them to use the Dev Team Grey WiFi Fix may cause more harm than solving it. Its been warned that only use the WiFi fix if your phone's WiFi is GREYED as in you can't even go in the WiFi setting to turn it on/off ... what more to say selecting the WiFi Access Point.

Sometimes it may look like your connected to the Access Point but cant surf the net. Check if u have been allocated with IP Address, Subnet Mask and Router. If u don't have these 3 then u don't have access to the net. When iPhone can't access to the net thru WiFi then it look for the 2nd option which is EDGE. Thats why u got the error message in safari saying EDGE is not available. This thing usually happen with public WiFi, it seems like you are connected but infact u r not.

Like Imzadi said ... u can try and reset the network setting and reboot the phone. No need to reset everything.

@||||||
Did u reboot the phone after u reset the network setting? When u switch on WiFi and select your home wireless router ... did u check if u have the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Router? One more thing ... is your router set to use WEP coz from what i hear, iPhone/Apple product can't use WEP.

so after reading so many posts...what should i actually need to do? to fix this bug (unable to connect to Wi-Fi) pls help !!!!!!

I have similar problem too. I have wifi in my campus and thus i can connect for free, but to certain areas. So my credit in the phone keep on deducting and i used RM25 in just 2 days. Is it because when there is no wifi coverage i will use up my own credit? If so what can i do to stop this? Any setting to change?

turn off your EDGE by using BossPref. ..... use the search button FFS..

Bro, do a reset on your network settings, then make sure you also erase all the EDGE setting if there still exist.

I can say ive tried all the solutions listed here....install this install that...finally the DevTeam GREYED Wifi fix worked...u guys can try if you dont mind.....if scared then just dont it lo(slowly wait for a proper fix to come out ...simple..and i do not normally read those warning bla bla bla...i juz try my luck and it worked....when i first unlocked my iphone the wifi dont work...it just say "cant connect to network", no matter what access point i tried..i am able to locate them just cant connect....i dont know is that what you mean by "GREYED"...but i am sure after installing the payload wifi works just fine.... and if anything goes wrong just restore to my customised firmware in itunes lor...

Winpwn is out...so you guys can build your own ipsw and restore it in Itunes....

everything i wrote is just a suggestion...if u dare then try it...
