@KeviNNZ,

Good lookin out! I REALLY really appreciate the info. Everything works perfect.. maps, youtube, etc and surprisingly faster than it ever did on my SK3.

I didn't need to restart my phone or anything. I tried this APN previously but didn't turn roaming on and left user and password blank and it didn't work.

SO MANY sites claim that the Sidekick plan uses Danger servers and theres no way it will work on the iPhone. Happy I kept hope alive and kept my 19.99 plan and didn't give up.

Thanx again.

does it work on a 2g iphone?my friend tried it did not work

3g works fine for me with my sidekick data,like you said glad i tried this before cutting this 20 dollar unlimited plan off,or i would of never gotten it back!

@rud3bwoy,

Works on my 2g, I have 2.2 Firmware maybe your friend hasn't upgraded their fireware? Not sure. Every now and then I notice the message pops up saying something bout internet is not included in my cellular data plan but a second later it disappears and I'm back on and checking email, etc..

I HATE seeing it cause I haven't even had it a day yet so I'm worried its just going to just stop working on me

I read in another thread someone who had it after 2 days (48hrs) it just stopped all together..BUT they had prepaid or flex so I'm hoping thats why..I have a regular plan with TMobile so again I'm just keeping my fingers crossed.

After lookin thru all the posts I noticed that u posted the same info awhile back so THANx for posting it even tho I didn't see it til now

[rud3bwoy]

so far i had no issues at all with the sidekick data,but i get the same issue as you where it says no network at times and 2 seconds later it works

but i assume that only happens when your phone is idle cause thats the time it happens to me,and once the phone is booted back into normal state for a few seconds after i slide the lock screen all is good

[RDL]

yep only happens when idle..hasnt happened once i'm active and searching...good to know it happens to others. i can live with that!

[rud3bwoy]

yea i think when idle it turns off edge/wifi to save battery life if you ever notice your wifi is gone when your idle,another thing which is a bug on yellow sn0w after a long period of time my net stops working and i have to restart,hopefully they fix it

FYI: I'm still on the prepaid plan and working fine (over two weeks now).
Now I can't find a means to activate MMS use yet; it seems to require the wap.voicestream APN, and my phone ceases data connectivity when I attempt to use that APN (if Swirly was running and attempting to find the data connection) with the 'you are not subscribed to cellular data' error.

RDL, what thread were you looking at claiming it's a flex/prepaid issue? I bet he's having issues that are only specific to his situation (APN incorrect, etc). There's been several people on other forums using data on prepaid sidekick plans (using the correct APN settings listed by Oliver, et al) for weeks now without issue.

[rud3bwoy]

Well i can confirm i have been using the sidekick data plan the grand fathered 19.99 plan with my flex pay no issues at all with data,only bug i notice is after a long period of time i have to reboot iphone to get net,pretty sure it is a yellowsn0w bug,works great tho

data works

calls work

youtube works

texting works

and so fourth

[rud3bwoy]

Hey i also want to update now so far since i updated to yellowsn0w 0.9.7 my edge have not been turning off after long hours or giving me a error after idle and making me wait for a few seconds to turn on,will keep everyone updated

[vmulchan]

hey so i have a sciphone (the iphone clone) and typed in the user name and what not but not sure what to do from here. i heard that the changing hte roaming settings helps but i don't even know how to do that

any tips?
