Actually I'm using iphone installer and twitter to install new apps and posting new twitters..
Unfortunately, after i surf very shortly I realised that it is not using the wifi.
Then, I check my balance it has reduced by RM10!!!

I'm really frustrated

What firmware are you on? firmware 1.1.4 or the latest firmware 2.0.1?

nokia2003 recommend that you download Bossprefs from installer if you're on fw 1.1.4, from Cydia for fw 2.0.1. BossPref has edge toggle to off/on your edge connections.

In my humble opinion:

1. Do not use cursing word. It distracts people

2. Do surf around a little bit more. You may not need to open a new thread

3. Follow both senior members' suggestion.

4. Edge n wifi is easily diffentiated. When u see E logo besides the carrier name, then u r using edge. If u see the signal bar, then it is wifi. This tip is based on assumption that ur fon is normal

5. It is stated in another famous thread that spoofapp is not working in Malaysia. It is for sure works well in US

Hopes these help

it means that you still accessing internet using ur gprs/edge not via wifi, edge/gprs cannot be disable unless you install bosspref to disable it..if you install bosspref and on wifi then you surf net but cant, means that something wrong with you wifi connection or your iphone wifi problem..please regress and debug more bout your iphone..
