hi. im on firmware 3.0 on an iPhone 3G. the prob is dat im nt able to edit the preferences.plist on 3.0 bcz how many ever times i do it, the original file is restored within the cell automatically after a restart (or evn after a respring maybe). so im not able to use edge on 3.0 whereas on 2.2.1 edge used to work totally fine with the edited preferences.plist and the proxy.pac method. iv evn noticed that "ip1" in the preferences file now has all the mms settings and the gprs settings are in "ip3". also the previous proxy settings used for gprs are now also identically same for mms(im a bit confused as to is this normally the same or wod). anyways im stuck without gprs on 3.0. pls help if u can/hav solved this problem.

yes:

you must edit your preferences.plist located in:

/private/var/preferences/SystemConfiguration

[daksh_jay]

iv hardly tested push on 3.0...2day i usd im+ wid de push n it ws sooo l8...i sent an im to me n de push alert came 15-20 mins l8r on WIFI...n EDGE...dunno bout dat...so lemme see...tell ya sumtym...

[dirk99]

better later and on wifi then nothing like me

another thing: have you forget to type a proxy for https sites? I only see normal http in your preferences.plst

[daksh_jay]

ya i did dat on purpose cz vodafone india hasnt specified any https...so i jus omitted dat...n workd flawlessly...

[man2rhyme]

does this work for iphone2G also??

[daksh_jay]

dunno...try it out dude...itl hardly take 2-3 minutes...

[ssarcastic]

very useful post guys....but i was wondering if anyone can help me with the vodafone egypt settings to use the iphone without a data plan?
anyone?

[daksh_jay]

its not much of a deal dude..hope u are on 3.0...jus gimme the data in *settings>network>cellular data network* and il giv u de code after editing it...den all u gotta do is paste it in preferences.plist..
