My edge toggle was missing since early January after updating itunes. Now, the only time i see MY CELCOM is when i am about to unlock the phone but after that it just goes back to MY...

well i found out about the carrier update settings.
its basically for maxis users only. yes i'm a maxis user, updated it thinking it was some feature from apple... but apparently the carrier setting will disable Maxis's APN. and when you go into Settings > General > Network > you will not see APN anymore to disable the APN (GPRS/EDGE) hence you will be charge when you run anything over the internet when you are not Wifi in ranged.

I put in a Celcom sim card and it worked and the APN was back on.

Then i put in my maxis card again... once more its missing (bloody hell)

Then for ppl like me, that didn't want stupid GPRS/Edge charging me like crazy, I went to put in Celcom sim, let that APN to appear, and took out the celcom and put in my maxis > unlock the sim password > went to APN setting ASAP and i saw Network : Maxis || Username : WAP || Password : xxX(can't remember)

and I changed all 3 of those. hence now i don't see APN, and i can't use EDGE/GPRS.

blehh....

i finally found out a method that works!

i can always activate it with bossprefs right?

try to find the bundle file inside ur iphone, the setting is embed thr..delete the folder then reboot...

edge toogle will re-appear.

as for boss pref, u can on and off, but u can change the setting anymore.

Hi everyone,
I like to know why my telco carrier is showing "MYS XL" instead of "MY CELCOM" (as shown when I got the phone initially)? Plus, it is showing the blue "E" indicating EDGE. Thankfully, no data is download as I didn't subscribe to it. It's distracting, though. I wonder whether it's because I changed the settings or somehow. I try resetting all network settings but it's still happens. I try with my friend's Maxis simcard and it's showing "MAXIS". Please advise.

Also, how do I sent a SMS to a 5-digit number (e.g. 32888)? When I type 32888, it becomes "328-88" on the sender column and the message can't be sent out. Why is it so?

click write new msg, just put there 32888 lo.. mine can work without the - also..

I have no problems sending SMS to 5 digit numbers. As to the new logo, perhaps that's because there was a 'Network Update' and that changed certain configurations.

I am a little confused too because yesterday, I was at the mall [I don't think I was online!] but some how my mails checked automatically - I tried to look for the APN to disable but I could no longer find that !!! *gulps* Am wondering if I was just too tired last night but haven't had time to check it out again today.

Someone wants to tell me if theirs is missing too or I'm just missing a brain?

Read this to enlighten yourself if you have done what i've done and what i've regretted slightly... here

oK. I've a minor problem - my phone is not jailbreaked, so how?!

Updated:
Ok.. I managed to get the data thingy enabled through this link (http://www.eidac.de/?p=13). The only problem is that to enable it, I need to have a new Profile Setting and I'm not on my Mac... damn!

Er.. oKies.. so what is considered a valid APN?! I'll try leaving it blank to see if it works

Updated:
I didn't get to create a new profile to re enable EDGE. I deleted the profiled I installed (which will disable EDGE) and tadah it works. Don't even need to reset the phone. Gee... stewpid Maxis...but thank God I found out before my bill started accumulating !

I have a DIGI carrier logo on my iphone 3G.. And have no problem with the latest itune update..

err....noob question - does this EDGE bill charge thingy will happen to celcom user?

checked my APN setting it's all blank. will it drain my prepaid airtime?

if u leave your APN blank username blank, password blank - when you click maps/applications/stock/safari etc and it loads, EDGE/GPRS is in use. if u put something anonymous on the APN like "xxx", "nothing", then it will find that carrier setting which is "xxx", "nothing" which it memang doesn't exist and it will not charge.

To all that has "Carrier Settings" are available - are meant for maxis users only. Celcom and Digi or even UMobile will not get this settings.

My iphone3g works fine after the update. The only thing now is my 3G is not working...it still get the 3G signal, but when browsing or using any data related apps, it will switch back to EDGE...aih...problem..

For me, after the carrier update, my 3G still working fine but I don't like the "MY..." logo. Can any tell me how to restore back the call MAXIS logo?

As in conclusion,
better dun update, am I right ? LOL

i also mistake update it... and lost my prety maxis logo... and change back to MY MAXIS but only can see MY..

i try to copy back the logo folder but no function anymore.. -.-

For logo headed to HERE
