    OK I fixed that problem. FYI all, it looks like one of the sources (STE Packaging) has been updated; see details here: http://blog.psmxy.org/

    CD, I installed services and edge was set to 'on'. I turned it off and back on again, and I'm still not getting anything. Any other suggestion mate? :(

    Did you just update to 1.1.3

    Have you tried putting the edge settings in to the settings page


    Also are you sure that there is coverage where you live

    The way it is supposed to work is the blue square when you have edge available and the E inside the square when it is connected

    That said mine always has the E inside the square even though I have not edge settings entered

    If you find out how you got rid of it let me know maybe I can repeat the trick lol

    Yeah,
    APN: isp.mymeteor.ie
    UN: my
    PW: isp

    OK, i have another meteor sim (i couldn't get an O2, cos my sis is being a b**** right now). I'm gonna try it, should I disable wifi via services or just the norm.. ah I'll try both..

    trying to unlock my iphone. have downgraded from 1.1.2 to 1.1.1. in order to do this. it keeps crashing when im trying to unlock it. any idea as to why this is happening. iphone.unlock.no is the website im using to do this.

    thanks for any help you can give!


    Is your phone 1.1.2 out of the box what are you using to unlock it ie (dont use anysim)

    If you use the unlock app from iclarified you can do the unlock from a jailbroken 1.1.2 or 1.1.3

    Just add installer.Iclarified.com to you sources

    HMMMMM , will i chance upgrading to 1.1.2 after todays shennanigans ?:confused:


    If you update to 1.1.2 you will get an updated baseband as well

    Then just jailbreak and anysim it and you are done

    That is what I would do.

    yeah usually. unless it some sort of interference! i'm gonna be heading out now so I'll try it when I'm around the city centre - should defo have a signal there. I'm on the devteam 1.1.3 upgrade and the new sw unlock.

    When I just disable and re-enabled edge via the services tool it popped up a message saying my settings were incorrect and gave me the options of att, t-mobile, etc., or other. I put the meteor settings in, but no luck. I really don't believe there's anything wrong with the phone, but I think it's weird that the E icon hasn't shown its face since day one.

    So, I updated to 1.1.3 using devteam jailbreak...
    Then installed the unlock.
    Then stupidly uninstalled openssh, spent about an hour playing with repositories, and got open ssh reinstalled. Now things are working fine with 1.1.3...

    Funny story - I was getting worried that every time I hard reset my iPhone it was going into recovery mode and something was wrong - I was about to restore to 1.1.1, started downloading the FW, then it hit me.. Duuh. The phone is supposed to boot recovery mode when you hold power + home... :D

    Has anybody seen the new Mobile Scrobbler? It rocks! So much better than the last, does almost everything the website can do.

    hi.. hope this one will help.. restore your phone back to 1.1.1, execute apptappInstaller, then jailbreak it.. on the system install the bsd 2.0, add a source i.unlock.no, you download there the virginizer,, after doing that, restore back to 1.1.1 again you have to jailbreak it again then adding the source i.unlock.no download the anysim to unlock now your iphone..

    OK , I've done that and its was sucessfull(somewhat) !

    I now have version 1.1.1(3A109a) , modem f/w 04.01.13_G , Unlocked .

    BUT there is "NO SERVICE " showing in the signal bar and cant make any calls .

    UPDATE

    I have updated to 1.1.2 and ran jailbreak , But still have the "No Service" problem .

    i just 112otb unlocked my phone using the iclarified method and i have to say it was the easiest and most painless and straightforward thing i have done with it yet and that is saying a lot because most of this stuff goes over my head, it really is an unlock for dummies!!!!!!



    ps. hardly used stealth sim for sale....

    Hi guys. With all that's been happening with 1.1.3 lately, I just want to know if I were to buy a 16gb iphone tomorrow in the uk, would it be possible to have it software unlocked using the new geohotz method? & use an irish sim? Thanks

    I figured that was only for users with 1.1.3 OTB. My phone is 1.1.2 OTB, which I updraded to 1.1.3

    I just decided to give it a try because the title said unlock 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 OTB. LOL, I didn't really care!!

    Ikman,
    I followed this guide http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=611 with my jailbroken 1.1.2 otb iphone but when i add installer.iclarified.com to the sources in installer it refreshes sources, but doesnt come up in the categories list...

    Does anyone know, do i have to upgrade to 1.1.3 BEFORE i do the iclarified method, i do want to have the features of 1.1.3 but i thought the iclarified method did this upgrade also through installer... any ideas?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 214 ✭✭nah_biy!


    it takes a while i wated 30 mins and added a new source of http://blankblank123.com and refreshed my huge list of sources :) and voila iclarified is there :)

    Good morning.

    It was mentioned a couple of pages back that it is possible to get Pop3 and IMAP to work over the Live APN, but i cant seem to find out how. Any help? i have just unlocked mine, and now i am stuck. there is a post on the HackinT0sh form (http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6365) which has some info, but even after trying that (Qtel seem to use the same type of IP as vodafone) i am not getting anywhere. requests are timing out... Any ideas? PS: requests are timing out for ALL traffic, including HTTP, not just IMAP or POP3...

    Has anyone gotten the new meteor edge data plan for use with iPhone? Im away at the moment but looking forward to seeing how its gonna work out, whats coverage like etc?

    Also do people think that the 250 meg option would be enough for checking emails, rss feeds etc?


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 6,531 Mod ✭✭✭✭sharkman


    Guys , Thanks for all your help . I've rolled back to 1.1.1 , all working perfect . So I think thats where I'll leave it .

    I need to get a new sim (on three mobile :( )
    But looked at meteor but then saw this on vodaphone

    Mobile Internet
    The internet is now mobile so take your favourite websites with you when you're out and about.
    Bundle amount Monthly fee
    500 MB per month €9.99
    Usage is charged at 0.5c up to 99c or 168KB of usage
    Price per MB after you have used your bundle is €5
    Unused MBs cannot be carried forward to the next month

    Surely this is better?

    i think that there is a problem using this bundle on the iphone,
    im someone with more info will elaborate....

    re: 3 mobile... from what ive read the 3 sim wont work on the iphone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 948 ✭✭✭lotas


    from what i can gather in relation to the vodafone 500mb bundle, its mobile internet only. all data goes though the vodafone proxy, which, by the way, i have not managed to get working on the iPhone. internet browsing should work without issue though... If you can setup the proxy...

    yes 3 wont work on the iphone. and im only 2 months into my 3 contract... typical!

    Anyway not sure which network to go for but that's another days decision. Today i want to upgrade my oob 1.1.2 jailbroken iphone to the 1.1.3 version and then run the software unlock. Still having issues with iclarified version, it shows up in my sources but in Uncategorized and it shows up as Untitled Source, doesnt show up in categories list?? Anyone have any ideas?
