    is there anyway of having a flash or a beep after a missed call/text

    If you are jailbroken, you can get an app called Notifier thru Cydia. It provides the audio beep for missed calls, voicemail, texts, emails, etc until you acknowledge it. Works great.

    Would u happen to have ActivateMMS2G installed? That thing drained my battery in about 6 hrs as well. After I uninstalled it, battery went back to lasting 2-3 days w/light normal use.

    Clarification on TMobile Data Plans + iPhone 3G(S)

    FYI - In a conversation I had recently had with one of the TMo CSRs, I asked if there were any plans to enable iPhone users to be able to use the 3G feature on our phones and I was told to look out for something during the 1st qtr of next year. He implied that they were working on something to...

    Clarification on TMobile Data Plans + iPhone 3G(S)

    @Nht: Dont bother trying to downgrade to the $10 Web-to-Go plan; it wont work with your iPhone. There are still some legacy users who already had this plan or it's predecessor, T-Zones, but TMo has a plan to phase out all the smartphone users from using these plans. Eventually anyone still...

    Help with Bypassing Activation for 2G iphone..PLEASE HELP!!!

    1.Try using Redsn0w 8.0 2.Make sure you check the box to Unlock since you're on a 2G, otherwise it's going to look for an active ATT SIM card to activate the phone. 3.Use iTunes 8.2.x, not 9.0. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

    IPhone on T-Mobile

    If you need any help seting up the phone with TMo, just call Cust Service and ask for their PDA Support. They have CSR's who specifically support the iPhone. The ironic thing is that they are way more friendly and helpful than any ATT rep will ever be and it's not even their phone. LOL

    IPhone on T-Mobile

    I am with TMo and have used both the 2G and the 3G models with them. Like the OP said, with the 3G, you just disable the 3G mode. You need to get the correct Smartphone data plan, it's $25.

    What phone did you have before your iPhone?

    Had a BB Curve 8320 with TMobile. Loved the phone....then I got an iPhone and I'll never use another phone again. Nothing even remotely comes close to an iPhone!

    Need Tethering help with T-Mobile

    Well, in case any other PC people cant get the benm.at method to work for them, I would definitely recommend MiWi (you can get it thru the RockApp in Cydia). I installed it and got it to work within minutes so I'm happy. :) It's only suppose to be a 10 day trial, then it costs $10 but it works...

    Need Tethering help with T-Mobile

    Not sure if this is progress but after connecting the phone to iTunes, my laptop recognized that a new "Apple Mobile Ethernet Device" had been found but it still never appeared as an option under Network Connections. Maybe I will have to try an alternate "older" method of tethering such as...

    Need Tethering help with T-Mobile

    Thanks for the suggestion. I will connect it to iTunes tonight when I get home and see if that helps....we're not allowed to have iTunes installed on our work PCs. And just to confirm....you loaded the Tmo profile and got it to work?

    Need Tethering help with T-Mobile

    Well.......now I know why we're told to turn 3G off. Once I turned it On, I completely lost my signal and got "No Service" in the upper left hand corner. Had to pull the SIM out and put it back in to get the signal back.

    Need Tethering help with T-Mobile

    Yes, I am trying to use it with EDGE but I will try turning on the 3G and see what happens. With T-Mobile, we are actually told by the customer service reps to turn 3G off because TMo operates on a different frequency than AT&T's 3G.
