    It's 'AppSupport Patch v1.2' you need and it's description should be 'Installs timschuerwegen's AppSupport Patch to fix Dialer Crashes and Caller ID for those in..' (and that's where the description stops).

    Not sure what you are looking for the link tells you how to do it if you follow the instructions you will get the EDGE button back and the you can enter your O2 APN username and password

    What do I have to do in fugu when I have entered the new line of code in order to make EDGE reappear again? Do I just select 'reconnect' in fugu or 'exit'? I've tried both but nothing seems to be changing for me when i go to settings/general/network, still no EDGE.

    BTW, does anybody know the current O2 APN details? Thanks.

    I have the above installed but still have issues with name not coming up on texts with the +353 format. I just noticed in installer there is an update for AppSupport Patch v1.3b9... Anyone used it yet? Does it solve the problem?

    Just got a 16gb iphone which is sim unlocked and jailbreak done it. I still cant seem to make calls or send texts though. If I use the ziphone software will
    this complete the unlocking and let me make calls and texts?

    Got my 16gb iphone today, arrived around lunchtime, so i was playing with it all day since.. however cannot get wireless to work on it :(

    It actually connects to my router.. but, when i check the network settings for that connection, there's no router and no DNS set.

    This leads to nothing internet on it working.. which seeing as the device is pretty dependant on inet.. is starting to tick me off :(

    iPhone came unlocked - ordered from ebay, also jailbroken. version 1.1.4

    I've tried everything that came up in searches - reset iphone, reset router, etc etc.. hoping someone here can help.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,449 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    have you got security on your router?

    if you do turn it off, see if it works without security.

    is your router serving it up with an IP (you can check by going settings >> wifi >> wireless AP) should have an IP like 192.168.xxx.xxx

    if it's just the DNS servers that aren't being sent to the phone, try manually entering them into the phone in the same place where you check the IP listed above.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,761 ✭✭✭cdebru


    Try power cycling the router

    When it says it is connected are you getting a 169.***.***.** number rather than a 192.168.**.** if yes then it is not connected at all hit forget this network then turn the router off and back on should sort it out

    This is the bit you need to do
    Except your phone will probably be 02 or AT&T rather than T mobile

    And you are using fugu instead of cyberduck makes no difference

    1. use Cyberduck (Mac), SmartFTP (Windows) or any other SFTP capable client to connect via SFTP into your iPhone
    2. go to /System/Library/Carrier Bundles/T-Mobile_Germany.bundle/ and download carrier.plist to your host
    3. since you can’t edit this carrier.plist you first need to convert it
    3.1. on OS X you can do it by installing the plist editor contained in the dev add ons on your installation DVD
    3.2. Windows (and lazy OS X) users go here: http://140.124.181.188/~khchung/cgi-bin/plutil.cgi to convert the plist online
    4. so when converted just open it with your favourite text editor. It should most likely look like this (click pictures to enlarge):
    bild-2.thumbnail.png
    5. So we need to add those tiny lines to get back EDGE editing capabilities:
    <key>AllowEDGEEditing</key>
    <true/>
    bild-1.thumbnail.png
    6. You will find “EDGE settings” menu under “Settings” » “General” » “Network” » “EDGE”. Enter the approprate APN and you’re done…

    So basically download the plist then convert it so you can edit it then add the lines save it and then replace the one on the phone with the one you edited

    then you will have the edge setting back then just google o2 edge settings there is a list of them on boards somewhere

    surprisingly enough, yeah, I am.. but i've done that and still not solved it :(

    I've forgot the network, turned off wifi, restarted the router, restarted the phone network settings, and then tried again.... *Pulls hair out*

    are you sure DHCP is turned on in the router are you able to connect other wireless devices to the router like a laptop etc

    Just tried it and it works for me so not the server

    Make sure you have community sources installed try reinstalling the installer then community sources again

    make sure you clear the queue


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,925 ✭✭✭✭challengemaster


    problem fixed - cheers cdebru.

    Problem was it was accepting and connecting with a wrong wep key.. just not sending data.. guess im not used to the keypad just yet.. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,449 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    seems to be installing now, didn't have community sources installed so i think that was it.

    i hate that queue thing in installer it's added nothing but problems, they need to have a queue button so you can see/edit/delete items in the queue.

    I was trying to follow a tutorial and it said to restore and then go through the process of using ziphone to jailbreak the iphone and hopefully that'd work.(seems an obvious stupid mistake to make now)

    However now when i connect my iphone itunes says cannot connect because sim is not unlocked so im guessing its locked again. I was given an AT&T sim card from the ebay seller, so i can try it again with that sim card in it. if that doesnt work how do i get back to where i was?

    Don't use Ziphone use iliberty+ or if you have a mac use pwned

    Yeah if you get a 169 ip address then it is not connecting to the router even though it is saying it is

    Hi all, I'll be getting my new iPhone in the next week from the US and I've been keeping an eye on the the best unlocking software. Has anybody used the new pwned tool yet? It seems to be the best one out there now for unlocking your phone.

    If Apple brings out a new software release you dont have to worry about upgrading to it and locking your iphone as the pwned tool overwrites this setting when it first pwns your iphone so any new software releases you can just upgrade to them directly in iTunes.

    Any thoughts on this??

    Guide to the new tool can be found here plus video demo of it.
