Hi,

for those who just update to ITunes 8.1 and sync their iphone, you MIGHT see any update similar to this (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1970)

my advise: DO NOT UPDATE!

i have updated it and i have a iphone 2G.

after i have updated it and i cant browse using my EDGE anymore and worse, when i go to GENERAL -- NETWORK , there is NO MORE EDGE toggle!!

for those who (like me) who have update it.

below is my fix.


1) SSH and GO TO root, go to /USER/LIBRARY/Carrier Bundle.bundle (Note: is USER, not USR)

2) SORT the list by DATE MODIFIED. you then see the LATEST MODIFIED THAT ON TOP.

3) choose the latest and open it.

4) if you see a folder, MAXIS_my.bundle, BACKUP the folder to ur hdd 1st

5) then delete then folder.

6) cross finger, pray and reboot. sweat.gif

7) once reboot, you shld able to see the edge toggle RE-APPEAR under General - Network.

8) Set your APN, for maxis is : NET, Maxis and wap. (im sure you can find list APN easily)


if this manage to help you. please leave me a thanks. thumbup.gif

I have just update the carrier setting from iTunes just now.

The followings are my findings:
1) I cant set my APN option in the Network settings, however i still can browse with my maxis 3g data plan

2) The maxis carriers bundle that previously works, is now not working anymore sad.gif Need to stick with the old icon..only can see "My..." LOL

Had the same problem after installing the carrier update. My solution is to install APN Editing from Cydia (you will need to have a jailbroken iphone). Simple and small package that does only one thing - re-enable the carrier network/APN/EDGE settings.

Try it. Worked a treat for me!

zzzzz.... i don't care bout the operator logo.

is there a way to get APN back out? on windows vista. has no plan to jailbreak my phone as of yet or in the near future just yet.

data roaming is damn expensive on maxis man.

one think that i had notice after the upgrade was my 3g data connection tend to me much faster. I used to have below 100kbps in my area ALL THE TIME, surprisingly, after the upgrade my speed improved to 400++Kbps biggrin.gif

Do You guys feel any difference?
