T-Mobile $5.99 Unlimited Internet Edge Settings

October 9th, 2007 by Limited Edition iPhone · 314 Comments

Why spend $19.99 for T-Mobile’s unlimited internet when you can get the same service using T-Mobile’s $5.99 T-Zones Plan. It is fairly easy to get the $5.99 T-Zones plan to work on your iPhone, you just have to follow a few easy steps below. Everything will work just as it does over Wi-Fi, such as, You-tube, mail, maps, weather, and stocks.

UPDATED for firmware 2.0-2.1: Go to Settings -> General -> Network -> Cellular Data Network -> Enter epc.tmobile.com for the APN and leave the username and password blank.

For firmware 1.1.4 and below: just add the LEI installer source and have installer install the hack for you. Please follow the guide to add http://limitededitioniphone.com/lei.xml

Guide To Install Limited Edition iPhone’s Source

First: Enter APN, username and password Go to ‘Settings’ -> ‘General’ -> ‘Network’ -> ‘Edge.’ For the APN field enter wap.voicestream.com. Make sure the username and password fields are empty.

To Start you will need to copy a file called “Proxy.pac“. You can download and unzip or

You can create this file by opening a notepad and cut and copy this code

function FindProxyForURL(url, host) { if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "10.0.0.0", "255.0.0.0")) return "PROXY 216.155.165.50:8080"; else return "DIRECT"; }

Now name it as proxy.pac

PLEASE DO NOT SAVE THE FILE AS proxy.pac.txt but proxy.pac

and upload it to: /private/var/root

(if by exploring your phone you dont see the change in file name ,download mobile finder on your mobile thorugh ibrickr and rename it on your iphone itself….)

After Copying download the file below:

http://rapidshare.com/files/55487664/preferences.plist.html
Or
http://files-upload.com/files/507698/preferences.plist

Or create your own and save it as preferences.plist and make sure its NOT preferences.plist.txt:

</plist>

and go to

/private/var/root/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and backup preferences.plist. Then transfer your new preferences.plist you downloaded or created.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO TOUCH THE EDGE SETTINGS OR APN SETTINGS. JUST REBOOT YOUR iPHONE AND YOU ARE DONE!!

Don’t check your edge settings after the hack. It does something to the plist file and everything stops working!!
Everything should be working with the $5.99 t-zones plan. Speeds are just as good as the $19.99 plan.

You can check you speed by going to: iPhone NetWork Test on your iPhone

-Thanks Wizkid

UPDATE: Here is a different tutorial if the other one did not work for you:

first on your phone go to Settings/General/Network/EDGE/

set your APN to wap.voicestream.com
leave user and pass blank

the copy this code into notepad/ text edit and save it as proxy.pac (PLEASE DO NOT SAVE THE FILE AS proxy.pac.txt but proxy.pac)

Code:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)

{

if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "10.0.0.0", "255.0.0.0"))

return "PROXY 10.23.8.3:8080";

else

return "DIRECT";

}

connect via SSH and save this on your iphone in “/private/var/root”

next you want to find “private/var/root/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist”
on your iphone and copy it to your desktop.

make a backup, and then open the file and search in it until you see

Code:

key>DeviceName</key>

 			<string>ip1</string>

 			<key>Hardware</key>

 			<string>com.apple.CommCenter</string>

 			<key>Type</key>

 			<string>com.apple.CommCenter</string>

and right there you want to add this

Code:

<key>Proxies</key>

<dict>

<key>ProxyAutoConfigEnable</key>

<integer>1</integer>

<key>ProxyAutoConfigURLString</key>

<string>file:///private/var/root/proxy.pac</string>

</dict>

so the whole thing looks like this

Code:

<key>DeviceName</key>

<string>ip1</string>

<key>Hardware</key>

<string>com.apple.CommCenter</string>

<key>Type</key>

<string>com.apple.CommCenter</string>

</dict>

<key>Proxies</key>

<dict>

<key>ProxyAutoConfigEnable</key>

<integer>1</integer>

<key>ProxyAutoConfigURLString</key>

<string>file:///private/var/root/proxy.pac</string>

</dict>

<key>com.apple.CommCenter</key>

then save this back to where you got it “private/var/root/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist”

now you should be able to connect to tzones!

Don’t check your edge settings after the hack. It does something to the plist file and everything stops working!!

People are reporting that if you delete and re-upload the files a few times it will eventually work.

If you are still having problems, download services from installer. Turn off edge and then turn it back on. Select the T-zones option that pops up. It should be working again.

I was getting an internal error and 502 error while Safari said COMVERSE. Services fixed that for me.

after i did all step that you provided. I reboot the iphone and then i tried to go to Safari, and the Safari just shut down. I tried it with Wifi but the Safari kept close up.
2 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 9, 2007 at 10:36 pm

did you reboot?
3 Michael // Oct 16, 2007 at 11:01 am

Same thing happened here and I did reboot. It still just shuts down anything I use, like Weather, or Mail, everything shuts off after a couple seconds.
4 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 16, 2007 at 12:47 pm

try using services.app to set the edge settings
5 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 16, 2007 at 4:16 pm

u’ll need to see if u have an ip address from tmobile. dial *3001#12345#* then call. clik on pdp info, pdp0. you should have an ip. if u don’t, wait. and my apn is set to wap.voicestream.com. i used this for both tzones and the total internet.

according to some posts on hackintosh, some ppl’s ip addy is different than 10.X.X.X. those ppl had to edit their files to reflect the differences.

9 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 17, 2007 at 12:11 pm

What’s wrong with them alex? What can’t you figure out
10 Peruvian305 // Oct 17, 2007 at 3:16 pm

12 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 17, 2007 at 4:23 pm

13 sam // Oct 17, 2007 at 4:49 pm

can u assist me on this page
14 lax009 // Oct 17, 2007 at 9:42 pm

After following this procedure and rebooting, I received the “Invalid SIM” error and my T-Mo SIM is no longer working. I used anySIM to unlock and I’m on 1.0.2… any recommendations? Thanks!
15 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 18, 2007 at 9:56 am

That should not of happened. You must of did something else. Just try reactivating it again
16 djr34 // Oct 18, 2007 at 2:14 pm

I have followed those instructions and it says: Could not activate EDGE
17 lax009 // Oct 18, 2007 at 2:32 pm

Other than leaving iTunes open through this procedure (which I guess could have mucked things up), I don’t think I did anything else. Regardless, I’ll try unlocking again. Running anySIM a second time gave me a “This phone cannot be unlocked. Please restart your phone after anySIM exits” error halfway through. I assume I need to do a restore using the instructions from the dev team’s site.
18 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 18, 2007 at 4:22 pm

Try the new updated tutorial.
19 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 19, 2007 at 7:53 am

Download mobile finder on your mobile through ibrickr or installer and make sure its labeled proxy.pac and not proxy.pac.txt. Rename it on your iphone itself if you need to.
20 lax009 // Oct 19, 2007 at 4:00 pm

Does anyone know where I can find the original preferences.plist file that comes with the iPhone? I didn’t back mine up (stupid) before following the procedure. Thanks!
21 lax009 // Oct 20, 2007 at 5:07 pm

Okay, disregard that last comment. On line 6 of the preferences.plist file, there is a string value. Does this /Sets/… value need to be something specific to your phone?
22 learn // Oct 24, 2007 at 1:38 pm

These instructions are crap. How the original steps don’t even say to “back up your original file first”? Dont mess with these intrustions
23 learn // Oct 24, 2007 at 1:58 pm

Sorry the instructions dont suck, I do. I don’t know if it didn’t work the first time because i just added tzone and maybe it wasn’t fully active, but follow the instructions above and download the proxy.pac.

Thank You
24 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 24, 2007 at 2:48 pm

backing up files that you modify is always a must. anyone who is going to mod should always make backups… Anyways I am glad it worked for you sometimes it takes a few days for t-zones to be activated
25 Sean // Oct 26, 2007 at 12:41 am

If your on 1.1.1, Apple made the Edge settings automatically erase after a reboot.
26 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 26, 2007 at 7:23 am

Dude, thank you so much for the information! I really happy for 5,99$ great internet!
Thanks again.

Adel
32 Michael // Oct 31, 2007 at 5:07 pm

I tried many different things to try and make this work and still no luck. I got an edge icon on top which allows me to go to the yahoo homepage only. I can’t search other sites or use map,weather,aim.
Please help me out someone.
33 Reggie // Nov 7, 2007 at 3:27 pm

I did the instructions, but I get Error 502 – Bad Request.
The server could not resolve your request for url.
34 Limited Edition iPhone // Nov 7, 2007 at 3:41 pm

try a different website and or wait till your t-zones is activated.
35 mysticxknight // Nov 9, 2007 at 10:29 pm

How can you upload these files into the iphone? what program do you need to use?
36 truehybridx // Nov 10, 2007 at 11:08 pm

umm thanks for the info on all this

but i get where anything that uses internet will end and go back to the home screen
37 truehybridx // Nov 11, 2007 at 8:14 pm

ok i finally got it to work.

for all of you having problems, try directly downloading the proxy.pac and preferences.plist
instead of making it through notepad
38 Laura // Nov 12, 2007 at 11:49 pm

i heart you guys!!!
39 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 6:30 pm

what program do you use to transfer the private/var/root/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist

I want to edit and add the necessary files, but dont know what to use to edit.
40 truehybridx // Nov 13, 2007 at 6:35 pm

you can use WinSCP, but you need a wifi router to connect your iphone to.

or just use ibrickr but that one gets tricky
41 truehybridx // Nov 13, 2007 at 6:39 pm

ok best way to do this is method 1.
MAKE SURE YOU KEEP A BACKUP OF prefrences.plist

download! both the files already made and use ibrickr to put the files where they go
42 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 6:54 pm

sorry for the noob questions, but i never used Scp. When i open the app, what do i do next?? i dont see any files anywhere
43 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 6:56 pm

and also how can i backup the file…thanks in advance
44 truehybridx // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:03 pm

ok when you open up SCP you have to put in the ip address of your phone, you need it on wifi tho.
from there you input the user name of root and the password of dottie (if your on 1.0.2) or alpine (if your on 1.1.1)

if you have no idea what I’m talking bout just download ibrickr and do it through USB
45 Limited Edition iPhone // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:05 pm

there is also a winscp guide on my unlock 1.1.1 windows guide
46 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:11 pm

I was trying ibrickr before and when i click the plist, ibrickr does nothing, it wont let me see the files
47 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:14 pm

Now i get host has not answered in SCP. this is a pain in the ass mod
48 Limited Edition iPhone // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:31 pm

u need to have open ssh and bsd subsystem installed. You can get them on installer.
49 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:37 pm

they are already installed, i put my ip in, root and alpine and i get nothing,
50 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:44 pm

do you htink you can explan to me how to do it using ibrickr
51 Limited Edition iPhone // Nov 13, 2007 at 7:50 pm

make sure you select SCP. Then click login. You will have to wait a few minutes the first time untilyou get the keys. If it says disconected waiting. Let it continue.
52 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 8:11 pm

Still nothing, i give up
53 Weezy // Nov 13, 2007 at 9:18 pm

Im back after 2 hours, and i got it to work, thanks for the info and help
54 Kyle // Nov 16, 2007 at 10:18 am

this works great if you just directly download the files rather than copying and pasting in notepad. the only thing is, my YouTube doesn’t work. :[ when i search, it just says “YouTube not available”
55 truehybridx // Nov 18, 2007 at 9:54 am

yea youtube is funny that way……. no really for some reason i cant find a fix to make yourube FULLY work
heres wht i came up with until they figure something out.

just bookmark your fav videos the next time your on wifi, if you do that then you can view em when your on EDGE
56 truehybridx // Nov 20, 2007 at 8:50 pm

hey i kno this dont talk much about EDGE settings but is there a way to magnify in yahoo mail on iphone the txt is sooo small
57 Limited Edition iPhone // Nov 21, 2007 at 8:36 am

cant you just do it the normal way?
58 truehybridx // Nov 21, 2007 at 10:26 am

everytime i tap to make it zoom it just zooms back out
59 Limited Edition iPhone // Nov 21, 2007 at 11:39 am

use two fingers to pinch and squeeze
60 truehybridx // Nov 22, 2007 at 7:20 pm

all it does is go in then back out
61 Limited Edition iPhone // Nov 22, 2007 at 8:59 pm

Download the proxy.PAC file the one you created is bad.
62 truehybridx // Nov 22, 2007 at 11:10 pm

oh ive been using the T-mobile T-zones Proxy from surrealnetworks
63 truehybridx // Nov 23, 2007 at 6:55 pm

ok i got it fixed….. well it appeared fixed after bricking my phone like 6 times yesturday…. hell of a thanksgiving lol
64 viewvista // Dec 4, 2007 at 1:52 am

thanks for you guide, i haven’t sign up for t-mobile internet $6 or $20, but on my service had sms $5, I did use this guide it work some time, 2 out of 10. I have to turn on / off / on / off…. until I got lucky IP then it connect. but the speed heo slow only 56k.

do you think if i cancel the sms, sign up for $6 internet plan, is it run faster & is it connect on other time?
65 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 4, 2007 at 8:34 am

Yes it will be connected all of the time. Just try it out for a day or so and if you do not like it cancel it.
66 nishaha // Dec 8, 2007 at 12:59 pm

im having problems im using the edge i down loade the tzone hack when i open the safari i get converse and internal error you do not have access to the site
67 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 8, 2007 at 1:08 pm

it can take up to 7 days before tmobile activates your service fully. Just wait a few more days.
68 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 8, 2007 at 1:09 pm

also you usually get a text message when its activated.
69 Rick // Dec 9, 2007 at 9:14 am

I too am getting the comverse error. Everything was working fine for a few days, but now only yahoo homepage will work. I read on another forum that t-mobile has started blocking people using tzones on phones that tzones is not intended for. Is this true? Any ways around this?
70 Mike // Dec 10, 2007 at 10:10 am

I have read the same about T-Mobile blocking this also, but that has not been confirmed enough to assume that is the issue.

I am also having problems with this, but I think I might just have to wait a little longer, if not and the hack has been blocked, no biggie, that’s the nice part about this hack, it’s cheap.

I added the T-Zone about 2 days ago, received a text message from T-Mobile stating my services have been activated, but when i check PDP info, I have no IP Address.
71 henry // Dec 13, 2007 at 4:15 pm

hi, I have an updated phone to version 1.1.2 and with firmware 04.02.13_G . which guide should I follow? should I do the : UPDATED: just add the LEI installer source and have installer install the hack for you. Please follow the guide to add http://limitededitioniphone.com/lei.xml
72 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 13, 2007 at 4:54 pm

yeah just use the installer source. If you are having problems with it, do it the manual way. Also T-Mobile has been shutting this hack down and it only works on certain towers.
73 nishaha // Dec 13, 2007 at 5:10 pm

tmobile takes forever activating tzones, patience is definitely the key.. thanks im up and running…
74 henry // Dec 13, 2007 at 8:40 pm

do I need to have t-zones active before installing this? thanks
75 shenese // Dec 14, 2007 at 12:40 am

My tzone was working fine up until 1hr ago I wonder if tmobile put a stop to it.
76 nishaha // Dec 14, 2007 at 7:48 am

no.. i installed mine then activated tzones
77 henry // Dec 14, 2007 at 10:36 am

just one more thing, I add sources http://limitededitioniphone.com/lei.xml
and went to packages categories (t-mobile) and see the option for t-zone’s hack. but I need mor direction from here.
do I install with hi-wi off?
what do I do after installin t-zone’s hack? I have not registed for the $5.99 t-zones yet.
thanks
78 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 14, 2007 at 10:51 am

First: Enter APN, username and password Go to ‘Settings’ -> ‘General’ -> ‘Network’ -> ‘Edge.’ For the APN field enter wap.voicestream.com. Make sure the username and password fields are empty.

Then launch installer over wifi and install the hack. Your done. Wait till you get a text from T-Mobile saying T-Zones is activated
79 henry // Dec 14, 2007 at 11:05 am

thanks.
80 henry // Dec 14, 2007 at 3:32 pm

t-mobile is taking forever to activate my t-zone, still have not recieve a message. how long does it take normally?
81 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 14, 2007 at 3:37 pm

sometimes up to a week
82 henry // Dec 14, 2007 at 3:51 pm

ok. i took off the wi-fi connection and tried the using edge and for sorprise I got a conection. did a speed test and got 133. still have not got any message from t-mobile about t-zone.

is this normal or should I be worry ? thanks.
83 Johnny // Dec 14, 2007 at 6:37 pm

im also getting the faulty connection i was wondering did they officially block the tzone service? Also with the recent people getting the edge to work did you just sign up?
84 Johnny // Dec 14, 2007 at 6:39 pm

im also getting the internal error connection. i was wondering is there a way to override it yet? Also with the recent people getting the edge to work did you just sign up for tzone?
85 henry // Dec 15, 2007 at 4:37 pm

ok, finially recived mesage from t-mobile, t-zones activated. but notice I am having problem with my conection.
first, can not log in to IM
second, youtube give me mesage not available.
third, sometime I get cut off in the middle of the connection and get send back to the home menu

any advise please. thanks
86 Anthony // Dec 16, 2007 at 1:15 pm

I am trying to use the installer source at:
http://limitededitioniphone.com/lei.xml

I first install it, then I reboot the iphone, but once the Iphone is rebooted, the wifi would not work anymore.

When I goto *3001#12345#* and click on “PDP Information” nothing happens. The only thing that does happen is that “PDP Information” disappears.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling a bunch of times. I have tried turning off EDGE and turning it back on.

I have already received a text message from T-mobile stating this:
“Free T-Mobile Msg: We made the change you requested to your account effective Dec 14 07. Visit http://My.T-Mobile.com for details on your current plan.”
87 Anthony // Dec 16, 2007 at 1:21 pm

I forgot to mention that if I reboot the Iphone again, the wifi will work again.

So here is what happens:
-Install T-Zone’s Hack
-Reboot
-No wifi and no Edge.
-Reboot
-Wifi works, but still no Edge.
88 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 16, 2007 at 1:31 pm

try using services.app to enable and disable edge and wifi. Turn of edge. Then turn it back on and select tzones when the option pops up
89 Anthony // Dec 16, 2007 at 1:45 pm

I have tried using “Services” App. Version 0.6.7 By Chris Hoffman. Here is what I’m doing:

-Turn off EDGE
-No service (carrier @ topleft)
-10 seconds later, ervice comes back on (Full bar T-Mobile)
-Turn on EDGE
-No service again, and 10 secs. later, service comes back on.

Nothing pops up for me to select T-zone when I turn EDGE back on.
-Service
90 seven // Dec 20, 2007 at 4:38 pm

i for some reason cant get the hack to work i did all steps correct i know or at least think i did it tells me i dont have permission when i open safri
91 Anthony // Dec 20, 2007 at 5:13 pm

Ok I found out why nothing popped up when I turn EDGE back on, you have to turn it on when it says “No Service.”

I have a few more questions still:
-After installing the LEI source, do I just reboot while still in the installer, or do I click on the home button and then reboot?
-After installing the LEI source, how long does it take before EDGE comes on? (T-mobileweb activation confirmed)

Thanks.
92 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 20, 2007 at 5:20 pm

click the home button and then reboot. You will get a text message when tmobile has activated your tzones.
93 seven // Dec 21, 2007 at 10:21 am

do you have to pay for the t-zone before the the hack can wor im a lil confused?
94 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 21, 2007 at 10:37 am

yes you must pay for T-Zones
95 rick // Dec 25, 2007 at 7:26 pm

I loaded the tzones hack several weeks ago and everything was working perfect but I needed to switch back to the total Internet with hotspots package because I now need the hotspots. Now my total Internet will not work. I have internet2.voicestream.com as the apn. Hotspots is working fine at all the starbucks I have tried. Every once in a while the weather app will load and I am not getting any errors. Is there a way to undo the tzones hack settings so my total Internet will work again?
96 Ian // Dec 26, 2007 at 1:17 am

can i use this service in Canada or do i already have to be with T-Mobile
97 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 26, 2007 at 9:35 am

Rick how did you get it on your phone? if you installed it through installer just uninstall it.

Ian you need tmobile but it may work with other carriers if you modify the file.
98 Rick // Dec 26, 2007 at 9:41 am

I had originally used the manual way explained above, but it did not work. Then I used installer, and that did work. Already uninstalled the tzones hack. Now I am noticing that I am receiving my email through my yahoo and gmail account, and sometimes the weather app will update. Everything else does not work. Stocks, web pages, etc. It looks like it is trying to load but is so slow it times out.
99 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 26, 2007 at 10:14 am

Try to manually uninstall it. make sure you delete the proxy.pac file and edit your preferences.plist
100 Rick // Dec 26, 2007 at 10:19 am

I know how to use ibrickr to delete the proxy.pac, but what do I do to edit the preferences.plist? Also, if I do this and need to go back to tzones at a later time, will the tzones hack take care of everything for me?
101 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 26, 2007 at 10:43 am

follow the guide: http://limitededitioniphone.com/windows-guide-to-using-winscp-with-iphone/
you can right click on the preference.plist file within winscp and click edit. Edit the file and then click save.
102 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 26, 2007 at 10:45 am

Or if you have your backup file still upload that. You made a backup right?? If not just follow the guide to manually edit the file.
103 Rick // Dec 26, 2007 at 11:56 am

I did not back it up. Stupid me. Would you happen to have the original proxy.pac file?
104 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 26, 2007 at 1:22 pm

there is no original proxy.PAC file. Just delete it.
105 Rick // Dec 26, 2007 at 2:17 pm

Sorry, I meant to say the original preferences.plist file, before he tzones edit
106 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 26, 2007 at 2:31 pm

use the code above but delete whats in red and then save it a preferences.plist.
107 Rick // Dec 26, 2007 at 9:28 pm

I could not get it to work no matter what I have been trying. Can’t get the total internet to work, so I ran the tzones hack again with everything working. Only thing is I am paying for tzones now along with total internet with hotspots. Is there a way you could add the total internet settings to the limitededitioniphone source folder?
108 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 27, 2007 at 8:49 am

make sure you change your apn.

internet2.voicestream.com

username/password blank
109 Taylor // Dec 27, 2007 at 8:04 pm

I just added your source.

I would like to confirm if the “T-Zone’s Hack” package do the trick and not require any additional steps as noted above “manually.”

Thanks
110 Edward Fancher // Dec 29, 2007 at 2:31 pm

I don’t have any settings for EDGE under Settings-General-Network-EDGE… any ideas? Can I still use this hack or the surrealnetworks app hack?.
111 Edward Fancher // Dec 29, 2007 at 2:33 pm

I have a 1.1.2 and I don’t have any edge settings under Settings-General-Network-EDGE, any ideas? Please help. Also can I still do the above hack and or the surrealnetworks app hack? Is there something I need to do to get those settings? Thanks.
112 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 29, 2007 at 5:18 pm

type wap.voicestream.com for the apn and nothing for the username and password. Then install the hack from my installer source.
113 Taylor // Dec 31, 2007 at 7:06 pm

DO i have to turn on Edge and Wifi after installing the “T zone” hack
114 Taylor // Jan 1, 2008 at 7:05 pm

Okay. It works. However, my speed is only at 104 kbps.

Youtube: doesn’t work for the “search” feature
Weather: works fine
Navizon: works fine, but very slowwww
Mobile scrobbler: not working
Apollo: time out because it is slow.

damn i hate my area
115 Mr. Shawn // Jan 3, 2008 at 12:36 pm

Hey,
I had already subscribed to the $20 T-Mobile plan. Then i found your hack and installed it. How do I know if I am working off the $20 plan or $6 plan? Will I still get the text from T-Mobile? If I run into any problems with the hack (T-Mobile blocking the hack, slow speeds, no speed, ect.) is there a uninstall procedure?

Thanks
116 milton // Jan 5, 2008 at 1:22 am

hey, one question….

does this work on the ipod touch or no? please let me know….if it does, can you email me step by step and what programs do i need
117 Limited Edition iPhone // Jan 6, 2008 at 3:57 pm

no edge is a carrier service.
118 Rick // Jan 7, 2008 at 2:48 pm

Will the tzones hack work with a phone that is using a turbosim? 1.1.2 firmware otb?
119 Limited Edition iPhone // Jan 7, 2008 at 2:52 pm

it should try it out and report back.
120 Milton // Jan 7, 2008 at 3:53 pm

Are ya planningto make free Internet for the itouch instead of only having connection with your wireless router. That would be nice
121 Rick // Jan 14, 2008 at 10:32 pm

Can someone give me the original preferences.plist so that I can go back to total internet? tzones is working great, but I am paying for total internet and tzones now cause I need the hotspot access at starbucks
122 Rita // Jan 23, 2008 at 10:32 am

I simply added limited edition to my source list and then refreshed and installed tzones..then i changed the username and password from guest to blank
123 Taylor // Jan 25, 2008 at 2:32 am

I update my firmware to 1.1.3 using the Nate True’s way on installer. Now I don’t see my Edge icon!
124 Jerry // Jan 25, 2008 at 9:08 am

125 Taylor // Jan 26, 2008 at 3:24 am

126 Taylor // Feb 6, 2008 at 3:22 am

I have the 5.99 T-mobile plan. Safari, stocks, and weather works but the map is not working. Do you know why the map isn’t working? I understand that youtube would not work with 5.99 plan, that is ok.
147 John // Mar 22, 2008 at 9:27 pm

I am sorry. Actually, the map works it is the “current location” feature within the map does not work. I got a error message” Your location could not be determined”. Does anyone know how to fix this?

173 irakli // Jun 4, 2008 at 6:55 pm

hi. i have a quastion. everything works fine for me(the internet) but i was just wondering if it was supposed to be like that – Its slower than edge. i checked with my friend cause he has iphone 2 and he has at&t and the edge is a lot faster. like 5x
174 ethanpn2003@yahoo // Jun 4, 2008 at 10:46 pm

another way to test iphone network
i.dslr.net/tinyspeedtest.html
175 ethanpn2003@yahoo // Jun 4, 2008 at 11:24 pm

average speed tmobile vs att
tmobile: 5.99 speed 56-113 plan 39.99
att: 20 speed 113-130 plan 69.99
but i use tmobile sometime speed up to 126 and sometimes 52, 53. 67, 102(after tzone hacked), i think speed depends on area and reception of network too
176 Double A // Jun 7, 2008 at 11:53 am

and i accidentally checked the edge setting, does that mean i have to redo everything?
179 vince // Jun 22, 2008 at 11:37 am

well i had the 19.99 plan i just switched to 5.99 would that have any effect on why everytime i try to click and install t-zone from the iphone keeps giving me and error msg saying Package download failed ..
180 Limited Edition iPhone // Jun 22, 2008 at 12:02 pm

183 Makaveli // Jul 14, 2008 at 12:23 am

This might be a dumb question, but are there any plans to make this work on the new 2.0 firmware? I’m currently using 1.1.4 and want to upgrade eventually, but I don’t want it so that I have to pay the $20 a month for T-Mobile’s internet.
184 Limited Edition iPhone // Jul 14, 2008 at 6:45 am

Yes. This will work with 2.0.
185 hannes // Jul 17, 2008 at 2:33 pm

does it work with prepaid t-mobile?

Thanks in advance
186 nick // Jul 18, 2008 at 11:21 pm

Which tzones hack do i install? I see that you have 2. One says “T-Mobile 1.1.3/4 T-Zones” and the other one says “T-Zone’s Hack”. I’ve tried both with no results. I’ve even tried manually installing but I’ve never received a text from T-mobile. Thanks in advance for any assistance
187 kdub // Jul 19, 2008 at 2:32 am

so if i get the 19.99 tzone instead am i guaranteed to get internet at all times? im getting sick of this 5.99 plan going in and out on me. i have fw. 1.1.4 i d/l the tzone hack and tzone is activated. keep getting the internal error. and if i switch the 19.99 do i still have to install the hack?
188 iPhone Helper // Jul 20, 2008 at 10:17 pm

READ. Thanx to limitededitioniphone for all the help. I’m here to help too.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY:

1) This hack is for “iPhones” ONLY!!. If you are having problems with a phone other than an “iPhone”, you are at the wrong place.

2) Your iPhone MUST be Unlocked/Jailbroken for this hack to work. If your iPhone is not Unlocked/Jailbroken, please do so. (Www.ziphone.org)

3) At this page, you will find ONLY information about the iPhones Internet connection known as the “EDGE” connection and how to install it on iPhone, THIS SECTION ONLY WORKS FOR T-MOBILE. If you are looking for other topics for the iPhone, please DO NOT ask here and find the topic you are looking for at the principal/main page.

4) Here at this website, we try to explain steps as easy as we can so you can understand and you can follow up, so if you have questions, read the whole post and if you don’t find what you are looking for, look at the comments. Please don’t ask questions that have been already asked and answered. Thank you.

5) Any questions you have concerning to this topic, please ask and we would be glad to help.

NOW LETS START!!

The first thing you want to do is call T-Mobile. Please don’t call from your iPhone (t-mobile WILL let you know that you are using a phone that u should not be using in the first place), call from your house phone or another cellphone. You are probably going to need to make up a story like this:

Tell the operator that you are currently using (the phone you was using before you started using the iPhone) and that you bought a “Razr” and you would like the $5.99 T-Zones Internet plan “just to check out the horoscope (lie)” they don’t need anymore info.

After hanging up, on your iPhone, tap SETTINGS, then tap GENERAL, then tap NETWORK, then tap EDGE, at the APN section (the first one you will see) and type: ” wap.voicestream.com” (without the ” “) make sure you leave the “username” and “password” fields blank.

EXIT THAT AND RESTART YOUR PHONE COMPLETELY.

When your phone turns back on, open up your installer in your iPhone and add the source in red at the top of this page to make your job more easier. If you don’t know how to install a source, please don’t ask here, search on google or youtube. After installing the source, go to the “Tweaks” folder and you will find two T-Mobile $5.99 T-Zones hacks, please install the one corresponding to your iPhones firmware. If you are not sure, its OK to install them both. (if you have 1.1.4, you might want to try the “T-Mobile 1.1.3 TZones Hack” since I have 1.1.4 and that’s the one that works for me)

After installing the hack, click the home button and wait for the iPhone to refresh as it usually does after installing a program. THEN RESTART YOUR IPHONE COMPLETELLY.

Now you are good to go! Remember that you will need to wait up to 24 hours for T-Mobile to apply the changes to your account. Allow up to 2 days if possible, be patient. And remember you will need a Wi-Fi conection in order for you to download the hack for the first time.

I hope this really helped you guys.
189 t10z // Jul 23, 2008 at 12:25 pm

My situation is weird. I’ve had the T-Web for few mnths now. i recently pwned my iphone to 2.0. via Cydia i installed the T-Mobile $5.99 hack. but wat happend is when i try to edit the EDGE settings n enter wap.voicestream.com , blank, blank. rebooted my iPhone and safari, mail, weather says i don’t have required internet service.
BUT, if i leave the
APN- blank
usename-blank
p/w- blank,
and reboot my iPhone. voila! safari, mail, weather all works fine, but the youtube is not available. has this happened to neone.
190 iPhone Helper // Jul 23, 2008 at 8:22 pm

Well t10z, this sometimes happen because of the hack you installed, maybe the hack did all the work for you! That happens to me sometimes and its because the phone has it configured in the .plist already so it doesnt need to check the APN.

About the youtube issue, what you can do is open up installer, then tap the “Tweaks 1.1.4″ then install the “Youtube Activator 1.1.4″ and restart your phone.

If this doesnt work for you, maybe its because of your Internet connection, your EDGE network is too slow, try it on Wi-Fi and see for yourself.

I’m glad to help
191 t10z // Jul 24, 2008 at 10:31 am

iPhone Helper, you’r right. Youtube only works on wi-fi. one more thing, i updated to v 2.0, so only have Cydia no Installer. Is there any way to get Installer on a pwned v2.0 iPhone? appreciate ur help.
192 iPhone Helper // Jul 24, 2008 at 7:04 pm

Well, i have no knowledge about that. Maybe theres one way out, go on iTunes, connect your iPhone and check if iTunes is recognizing it as a 1.1.4 still.

If iTunes is recognizing it as a 1.1.4, what you can do is restore it to the factory settings on itunes, but all the conctacts you have and music/videos are going to get deleted as well.
193 nick // Jul 25, 2008 at 6:33 pm

Youtube did work after i installed the youtube activator. It was very slow but it did work.
194 ZMJ // Aug 7, 2008 at 3:17 am

Hey i was using the Tzones hack and it was working perfectly (i have 2.0) and now im not sure what it is exactly that i screwed up but my internet wont work and i dont even have the E on the top of my screen. Haha so any help would be great
195 nick // Aug 7, 2008 at 7:59 am

I’ve had the same problem with 2.0. That’s why I’ve downgraded to the 1.1.4 and have never had that problem since.
196 ZMJ // Aug 7, 2008 at 11:23 am

i just reset it and when i woke up this morning it was working perfect lol
197 RAL // Aug 20, 2008 at 5:31 pm

Hello,
“After installing the source, go to the “Tweaks” folder and you will find two T-Mobile $5.99 T-Zones hacks, please install the one corresponding to your iPhones firmware.”
Every time I try to install this “T-Mobile $5.99 T-Zones hack” I get the error: “1.1.3 has its own T-Zone patch. Look for that instead”
not sure where to find that. under Tweaks 1.1.3 i have no t-zones hack available

Also my internet error reads COMVERSE
internal error. You do not have access to the site in

Please help. Can’t access T-zones after trying everything!
198 truehybridx // Aug 29, 2008 at 10:50 pm

202 Limited Edition iPhone // Aug 30, 2008 at 4:58 am

tmobile wants you to upgrade to the total Internet plan. I will continue to look into this. Please post here if yours is still working…
203 nick // Aug 30, 2008 at 8:25 am

I’ve also heard that Tmobile is planning to have 3G on their network. 6 cities are launching it and I’m in one of them. (Dallas). This might have affected tzones functionality but they told me that tzones problems are happening globally.
204 t10z // Aug 30, 2008 at 9:29 am

i had the same problem with EDGE on my pwned 2.0.1 too, for past two days. So checked Cydia, and they had this update for T-Mobile $5.99 Hack. upgraded n HEY!!!! it works fine now.. check Cydia for upgrades n if u lucky u might find the T-Mobile $5.99 internet- upgrade..
205 nick // Aug 30, 2008 at 10:59 am

I have 1.1.4. Is there a link to show how to upgrade and pwn to cydia with unlock and jailbreak. Thanks for any assistance

I’ve restored my iphone from a previous backup restore that was somehow saved on itunes and tzones is working now. Made changes to the proxy.pac and preferences.list through SSH berfore restoring though. Can that be it?
210 nick // Aug 31, 2008 at 2:51 am

Also, on my edge network settings, it no longer says wap.voicestream.com. but instead it’s blank. I’m on the 1.1.4 firmware.

218 nick // Sep 8, 2008 at 4:54 pm

Hey truehybridx,

I did everything that you’ve mentioned above and the internet has been working for a week but it stopped working today. Are any of you others having the same problem? I’m currently upgraded with the 2.0.2
219 Devin // Sep 9, 2008 at 10:54 am

nick, I have had mine working since May 2008 on Tmobile Tzones and in Salt Lake City, UT the network was down from about August 25th til I flew to Portland OR Sept 2nd and even thought the network is NOT down here my phone can’t connect either…. I am wondering if they have wised up?
220 C-na // Sep 13, 2008 at 9:51 pm

Hey Nick! I’ve upgraded to the 2.0.1 and I just signed up for T-zones like a week ago in order to get internet on my iphone but I’m confused as to how to do this? I’ve downloaded T-zones hack from Cydia but still confused…. and the APN went away on my network settings? It was there before and now it’s not there? What do I do!!?!? Thanks!
221 nick // Sep 13, 2008 at 10:07 pm

Hey guys, I’ve upgraded to the 2.0.2 and then I’ve ssh into the iPhone using winscp and changed preferences.plist from truhybrid’s post and then went to cydia to do the the tzones hack. Tzones has been working since.
222 nick // Sep 14, 2008 at 10:29 am

I’ve had that same problem before C-na so I just basically restored it again and made sure that the cellular data network option was still there.
223 C-na // Sep 14, 2008 at 1:10 pm

Hey Nick! I’m afraid to restore my iphone because I got it unlocked and I don’t know what software to use to unlock it again if it locks back up! I used Ziphone software before for 1.1.4 but that wont work anymore. Do you have any suggestions on which software to download to unlock my iphone again if I decide to restore it?
224 Limited Edition iPhone // Sep 14, 2008 at 1:17 pm

You can use pwnagetool, quickpwn, or winpwn and upgrade your phone to 2.1 firmware.
225 nick // Sep 14, 2008 at 1:21 pm

yes, use winpwn 2.5 beta if you’re on windows.
226 Will // Sep 20, 2008 at 5:30 pm

What’s the deal with 2.1, am I able to do this on 2.1 firmware?
227 nick // Sep 20, 2008 at 5:55 pm

I thought that you can’t upgrade and unlock on 2.1 unless you have a mac.
228 will // Sep 20, 2008 at 6:43 pm

I have a Mac.
229 nick // Sep 20, 2008 at 6:57 pm

Download pwnage tool v2.1 & the restore ipsw for 2.1.
230 will // Sep 20, 2008 at 7:03 pm

I think we’re talking about 2 different things. My iPhone is unlocked, I was talking about the T-zones thing.
231 nick // Sep 20, 2008 at 7:09 pm

I’ve heard that you can do the tzones on the 2.1 but haven’t seen it for myself. I have 2.0.2 and tzones is working fine. Try SSh into the phone and change the preferences.plist. Then do the tzones hack through cydia, and remember to change apn to wap.voicestream.com
232 will // Sep 20, 2008 at 7:16 pm

alright, thanks.
233 Limited Edition iPhone // Sep 21, 2008 at 6:19 pm

Try using epc.tmobile.com for the APN.
234 Ryan Collins // Sep 24, 2008 at 12:20 pm

I want to get prepaid and the t-zones, what do I need to tell T-Mobile when I sign up and which is the best option for pre-paid.
235 gab // Sep 26, 2008 at 11:57 am

Ryan Collins: T-Zones is INCLUDED with Prepaid. i personally use “Pay as you go”. I’m getting an Iphone this weekend…will see if I get unlimited internet !
236 gab // Sep 26, 2008 at 12:20 pm

Ryan Collins: I just did some researches and this what came up:

- There is no way to get internet access with Tmobile Prepaid and the Iphone.
-The best deal is to get Tmobile FlexPay ($29.99, no contracts,300 minutes,unlimited weekends) + the $5.99 TZones (unlimited with the “hack”)
237 Needlesj // Oct 1, 2008 at 8:29 am

in post 5 you talk about the ip being different than 10.xxx . Mine is different than this and i dont know how to edit it. My t-zones used to work, but recently stopped.
238 Needlesj // Oct 1, 2008 at 8:45 am

ok, update. i did this “Try using epc.tmobile.com for the APN.” and it corrected the problem. So if you’ve had t-zones working until late august, then try this before anything else.
239 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 1, 2008 at 9:01 am

I updated the post. For firmware 2.0 and 2.1 use epc.tmobile.com for the APN. (this may work on older firmwares also, but why are you still on an older firmware?)
240 John Jr // Oct 2, 2008 at 7:06 pm

I’m using a 2.1 FW on my 2G iphone and I would like to use the internet on it with a SIM Card that I bought on ebay it is a FlexPay T-mobile Unlimited for 30 days.
- First I would like to know if I have to call tmobile and do any changes on my plane.
- I would also like to know the step-by-step of the technical changes to the phone.

– Which of the 2 files from Cydia do I have to install to hack ?
– Do I have to do any of the Hacks from the top of the Post?? If I have which one do I have?
– What APN adress do I have to put ?

Do I have to do anything else to my iphone??
241 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 2, 2008 at 7:15 pm

Just follow the above video. You just need to put epc.tmobile.com as the APN
242 John Jr // Oct 2, 2008 at 7:36 pm

Thanks a lot for you help.

I just watched and I know is very easy to change de APN.
Do you know if have to call tmobile to change my plan and add T-Zones plan?? I’m asking because I’m not in the US now and I bought this SIM from ebay and it is suppose to be Internet unlimited, it is a named like this FLEX PAY T-MOBILE SIM CARD UNLIMITED.

I’m going there on vacation next week and I hope to be able to use the internet.

Again tks for your help

248 ethanpn2003 // Oct 10, 2008 at 6:00 pm

looks like you skipped all the threads. Here is what I do.
Call tmobile to add 5.99 plan, then follow limitededitioniphone’s instruction on top of this thread or follow truehybrid’s instruction is some where above my thread. Search and you will find it
* do not check edge setting, it will mess everything up and you have to restore your iPhone and do all over again
Good luck and do some more reading LOL
249 codie // Oct 11, 2008 at 7:59 am

254 Marino // Oct 12, 2008 at 1:33 pm

I have called 5 different t-mobile people to activate t-zones and they keep telling me there is no way to activate tzones anymore on a prepaid plan.
I guess it is over for new people trying to get the $5,99 plan to iphones.
It seems to me there is a new policy for this.
Unfortunately the cheapest option is to get There is no way to get internet access with Tmobile Prepaid and the Iphone.
The best deal is to get Tmobile FlexPay ($29.99, no contracts,300 minutes,unlimited weekends) + the $5.99 TZones (unlimited with the “hack”)
Saddly but true.

257 codie // Oct 16, 2008 at 10:37 am

i had the internet working with the epc apn
and everything is fine now i cant get the e to come back and i cant browse. i lost it some how
i tried a different apn but still nothing i have the data roaming turned on. will be something with the cydia or installer that is on my phone i dont know what to do to get the edge service to come back.
when i just had the installer on my phone everything worked fine but once i put that cydia on there this happened but it worked for a while with the cydia idk lol im confused why its not working.
anybody have any suggestions ?
258 lam9999 // Oct 16, 2008 at 12:17 pm

I don’t think Cydia has anything to do with it. epc.tmobile.com was working on my phone and it just dies out today also. the APN must have changed or something. Anyone — please advise
259 John // Oct 16, 2008 at 11:47 pm

It isn’t woking for me either. I belive they have changed the apn. If anyone knows a APN that works, please let us know.

262 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 26, 2008 at 7:22 pm

rosa use internet2.voicestream.com. Make sure you uninstall the tzones hack if you have it installed. Also turn data roaming on.
263 rosa // Oct 26, 2008 at 10:17 pm

yes i’ve turned on roaming, turned off wi-fi, and entered internet2.voicestream.com i’ve even reset network setting and rebooted several times also turned 3g off and on still no sucess. is there another setting other than the apn i need to change “what is the vpn address” do i need one
264 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 26, 2008 at 10:40 pm

Your sim adapter may not support edge. Make sure you are using an actual TurboSim and not a knockoff.
265 nick // Oct 26, 2008 at 10:52 pm

SSH into the iphone using WinScp and change the preferences.plist. You can get the file from the above postings from truehybrid
266 Eduardo // Oct 27, 2008 at 7:02 pm

I have iphone 2g with 2.1 with tzone, Now i put epc.tmobile.com and thats it? or i need change the proxy etc….?
267 nick // Oct 27, 2008 at 9:57 pm

I still use wap.voicestream.com. I changed the proxy & preferences.plist. & i’ve also installed the tzones hack through cydia. Mine has been working effortlessly for the past 6 mos.
268 Jason // Oct 29, 2008 at 4:14 pm

269 Limited Edition iPhone // Oct 29, 2008 at 9:14 pm

watch the video up top. thats all you have to do. Just enter epc.tmobile.com for the apn
270 steve // Nov 12, 2008 at 10:49 am

hello, i updated to 2.1 used quickpwn to unlock, i entered epc.tmobile.com for apn and nothing really. what i dont understand is i went to go to safari and entered tmobile and it takes me to google search tmobile, i click on tmobile.com and it goes thru, but i can’t go on yahoo or any other website just tmobile.com

thanks

I am SUPER lost. I have no knowledge on any of this.

I have a 3g iphone on tmobile and it was unlocked with a sim. I currently have the sidekick lx net plan but NOTHING works at all. I called and they want me to get the 34.99 plan. Is there anything more affordable than that? My sister also have an iphone but the 2g and she has the 35 plan and NOTHING works either. So i dont want to get off my 20 plan for no reason. CAn anyone help me?
272 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 19, 2008 at 11:03 am

T-Mobile no longer has tzones. You can get the web2go plan for 9.99. The sidekick plan does not work on the iPhone.
273 Marbs // Dec 19, 2008 at 12:27 pm

it doesnt let me add the 9.99 plan to my account. howcome?
274 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 19, 2008 at 1:43 pm

Switch your phone to a razar on the website.

Hi Limited Edition iPhone:

I have a hacked iPhone 2.1 with Cydia. I used wap.voicestream.com for the APN and EDGE worked fine with these settings (TZONES)….until today. All of a suddent EDGE no longer works. I tested my SIM in another phone (Sony Ericsson K850i) and I can get webpages fine. I see you said TMOBILE no longer has TZONES. What do you mean by that? I currently have the 4.99 plan. Do you know how I can fix this on my IPHONE without resetting it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Andy uninstall the Tzones hack in Cydia. Reboot. Change your APN to epc.tmobile.com. Reboot and you should have internet again.
277 Andy // Dec 21, 2008 at 1:28 am

Thank you! I actually just upgraded to 2.2 and then I installed the Tzone Hack from Cydia then changed the APN then rebooted. It FINALLY works! I lost all my apps and contacts since i didn’t have my computer with me that has an old back up on it, but I’ll deal. Thanks again.

hi, i have an iphone 2nd gen , and it is jailbroken and unlocked for tmobile, i entered apn info u had on video and it worked, i do not want to change my data plan because i switch back and forth from my g1 and iphone, is it ok to not switch my plan, even though i would save more if i was on 5.99 i am currently on 34.99. I would be charged for anything, are u not sure.
279 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 22, 2008 at 7:03 am

The G1 plan will work fine with the iPhone!
280 Dinki // Dec 22, 2008 at 10:59 am

Hello Limited Edition iPhone,
Since Tmobile has stopped TZone and replaced it with Web2Go, can we still use your setting and enjoy the UNLIMITED INTERNET or do we have to stick with 100mb limit which comes with Web2Go plan?

Thank you Sir…
281 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 22, 2008 at 12:22 pm

No you would have to purchase the unlimited plan.
282 Dinki // Dec 22, 2008 at 12:38 pm

Oops bad news…
That means there no much savings there.

If you have contracted Tzone, will it still continue to work or it will stop working?

Thanks
283 Kenny // Dec 25, 2008 at 4:03 pm

the internet isnt working and im getting ‘Error 500 Internal Server Error’
284 Kenny // Dec 25, 2008 at 4:29 pm

i tried turning it off on service and on but my iphone just freezes when i do that so what should i do then? plus internet doesnt work like the unlimited and yes i did follow the guide up there
285 Kenny // Dec 25, 2008 at 4:46 pm

ok now it’s saying ‘Safari can’t open the page because it can’t find the server’ and it also says ‘Could not activate EDGE: You are not subscribed to EDGE’ which my EDGE is turned on… and wifi off
286 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 25, 2008 at 6:28 pm

If you just added edge to your plan it can take a few days to activate. Also make sure you ate following the video and not the old guide.
287 Kenny // Dec 25, 2008 at 6:41 pm

but ive had EDGE on the iphone for couple of days now though… and does epc.tmobile.com work for firmware 1.1.4 and lower? and i thought video was for iphone with the 2.0 firmware and up? (i have the $9.99 data plan for tmobile, EDGE, iphone, proxy, preference) so yeah what else do i need now?
288 Limited Edition iPhone // Dec 25, 2008 at 6:58 pm

kenny read 12 comments up. Epc.tmobile will work with any firmware. Uninstall the tzones hack. Reboot. Enter epc.tmobile.com. Reboot.
289 Kenny // Dec 25, 2008 at 7:03 pm

wait so uninstall everything that says Tzone hacks? or the the hacks under tzone?
290 Kenny // Dec 25, 2008 at 7:06 pm

under tmobile*
291 lencho // Dec 28, 2008 at 2:29 am

292 lencho // Dec 28, 2008 at 2:35 am

293 dave // Jan 7, 2009 at 10:07 pm

@ lencho….. do you have the tzone data plan still on the sim card you was trying to use in the g1? Let me know if so I think we can play with it….I can give you the setup to try.
294 Taylor // Jan 16, 2009 at 6:37 am

I can’t seem to find the T-Zone option from the T-Mobile’s website so I can’t add it. I don’t want to call them.

Any idea?
295 Alex // Feb 18, 2009 at 7:32 pm

I too can’t find the T-Zone option from tmobile website. Does anyone have the link? Going crazy scouring the site for the t-zone option. Thanks!
296 Limited Edition iPhone // Feb 18, 2009 at 7:43 pm

Web2go is your only option now.
297 Alex Korbeck // Feb 18, 2009 at 8:22 pm

Thanks dude! Hey one question…my iphone 3g 2.2 is jailbroken and unlocked with yellowsnow. Am I good for awhile or is there a jailbreak for 2.2.1 I don’t know about? Thanks for the speedy response back.
298 Alex Korbeck // Feb 18, 2009 at 10:27 pm

Ok, I had unlimited texting for 14.00 bucks. I just got rid of the unlimited texting and got the 100mg internet with unlimited texting for 19.00. 5 buck increase. Not bad. Now if I want to make my internet connection faster, do I apply one of these scripts or leave APN blank?

ept.tmobile.com
wap.voicestream.com
internet2.voicestream.com
internet3.voicestream.com
299 Gary // Feb 24, 2009 at 2:49 am

I added ept.tmobile.com to my APN and left my pass and user blank. I could not locate : /private/var/root. Where can I find this? Thanks.
300 A-Rob // Mar 21, 2009 at 6:29 pm

I have 2g iphone and just updated to FW 2.2 from FW 2.1. I have had tzones for quite some time now and it worked fine on FW 2.1. Now with 2.2, tzones has not been working. I changed the APN to epc.tmobile.com and the internet works fine, but I cannot download anything from Cydia. I get a HTTP error -2096. Has anyone else had a problem with this?
301 george // Mar 27, 2009 at 2:49 am

had a question the cellular data network is missing on my iphone n e ideas on how to get it back?
302 A-Rob // Mar 27, 2009 at 5:33 pm

There is a tweak in Cydia called APN Editing. That should add the cellular data network to your settings page and allow you to edit it. Otherwise you can do it through SSH.
303 Chris // Apr 20, 2009 at 7:21 am

Here is a helpful tip I havent seen on these comments.

If you are using Turbo Sim or you have an UNLOCKED iphone and rebooting or static entry of wap.xxx.x did not work:

1. enter either. wap.voicestream.com or internet2.voicestream.com power down your iphone.
2. put your sim in a DIFFERENT phone, load T-zones, load a non standard web page; ebay.com wait for it to load partially.
3. Exit T-Zones power down, re-insert your sim/turbosim whatever power up the iphone.

boom internet works.

anybody can help me please thanks
306 A-Rob // Apr 26, 2009 at 2:26 pm

No solution yet beltran007. I have gotten no response from iphone forums about Cydia not handling the new t-mobile APN.
307 beltran0007 // Apr 26, 2009 at 8:23 pm

I just found how to fix it A-rob Problem solved (I think)!

I removed this from my preferences.plist and it seems to be working better now…

Proxies

ProxyAutoConfigEnable
1
ProxyAutoConfigURLString
file:///private/var/preferences/proxy.pac
308 A-Rob // May 1, 2009 at 9:02 am

Is this for the epc APN or the wap APN?
309 beltran0007 // May 2, 2009 at 12:12 am

I used it for the epc APN and it works
310 stephanie // May 20, 2009 at 9:04 pm

I have installed the hack but do not have any EDGE or apn settings under general-network just option for VPN and Wifi. What do I do? I had it before on my phone and it has disapppeared.
311 A-Rob // May 30, 2009 at 6:45 am

Finally go the time to try your fix beltran007, works great so far! I can download from Cydia now. Thanks, your the man, or woman, =)
312 Lia // Jun 4, 2009 at 8:20 pm

So, my 5.99 plan is working great on my regular t-mobile phone, but when i take it out and put it back into my phone the edge doesn’t work at all, i tried both methods for hacking through winSCP, and it still doesn’t work, can anyone help me?
313 Limited Edition iPhone // Jun 5, 2009 at 6:15 am

Lia uninstall any hacks that you have. and restart your phone. Then set the apn to epc.tmobile.com and restart your iPhone. You may also need to turn on Data Roaming if you have a sim adapter.
314 Lia // Jun 7, 2009 at 3:34 pm

Could a problem also be that under private/var/root/Library/Preferences, there isn’t the SystemConfiguration/? and if that is the problem, how do i fix it?
