Sharing my experience with my 2 week old iPhone 3G.

1. UNLOCK METHOD: Proxy/Adapter SIM (Not sure what brand, but I don't need to cut my SIM card)
2. FIRMWARE: 2.0.1 and will update to 2.0.2 tonight with new Pwnage 2.0.3, just found out today that they have released this new version.
3. SERVICE PROVIDER: Celcom. Usin 128K 3G SIM Card
4. SMS: In & Out working perfectly
5. MMS: Didnt install the MMS application
6. CALL: In & Out working without experience any call drop
7. GPRS/EDGE/3G: Working
10. WIFI: Working
11. YouTube: Working
12. Maps: Working like my old iPhone 2g. Wondering how to use GPS function.
13. Stocks: Working
14. Weather: Working
15. App Store: Working perfectly with my ME account

My only question to the iPhone 3G user here, since day 1 I'm using this iPhone 3G, Celcom 3G 128k SIM Card with unlimited data plan package, I only got GPRS icon which is square icon with hole in the middle. I never get 3G icon even if I'm at Celcom 3G area. Mind telling me your situation there TS. Why this happen actually?

Maybe because of:
1. I'm using the SIM adapter method? Anybody here using Official Unlock iPhone 3G with Celcom 3G SIM showing the 3G Icon?
2. Do I need to upgrade my 128K 3G SIM Card to 256K?
3. Or firmware 2.0.1 having this problem and I need to upgrade to 2.0.2?

Report on item 7, my data connectivity never failed me. I can connect through the Celcom connection using any application except YouTube that require WiFi. But I suspect I only use GPRS connection instead of 3G, which is Celcom doesnt have Edge.

I will try to update to new FW tonight when I got back home. Any other persons mind sharing their experience?

Ic, I set mine as "celcom3g" like before using my iPhone 2G. Let me try using "3gcelcom" and i will update in a while. Thanks!

UPDATE: Cannot use at all if I change APN to "3gcelcom". It appear "Could not activate cellular data network: You are not subscribed to cellular data service". Change back to "celcom3g"
