How to Get Push Notification Working!!

[ryan206]

O god i am not trying to be rude but if you read as of right now

PUSH DOES NOT WORK WITH 2G PHONES.





I did nothing special....


all i did was follow the instructions for push used a activated sim card from atnt,put in apn from mms and net,and all fine

make sure 3g is also turned off

Wrong..

Push doesn't work on Hactivated phones..

Legit Activated 2Gs recieve push.

Worked on my 2G, Activated it with the ATT sim unlocked and jailbroke with redsnow

Is anyone else getting a NO SIM INSTALLED message right after they reboot their phones? Mine signal seems to come back pretty soon after, but I'd love to get rid of that if possible. I'm afraid it'll start giving me that message when my signal gets low like it has previously in some of my less successful jailbreak methods to get push and MMS to work together.

RIght now everything is working besides the NO SIM INSTALLED message.

Any ideas, guys?

I'm using a iPhone 3G redsn0w'ed T-Mobile


You need a Unactivated ATT Sim
Take out your T-Mobile SIM and Pop in your Unactivated ATT Sim card.
Restore Using iTunes
Jailbreak with redsn0w
Go to settings and turn off your 3G!
You should get a "Waiting for activation." message, dismiss it and Open cydia.
Setup Cydia and all the hoopla.
Add the Ultrasn0w source repo666.ultrasn0w.com
Install Ultrasn0w and turn off your phone
Remove the unactivated ATT sim and insert your T-Mobile sim
Turn on the phone, once you receive service you should get the message. "iPhone has been activated"

These Instructiosn (and the Reset Network Settings) do not work on an iPhone 2G

worked for me, Put the att sim in activated the phone, then ran a test to see if push was working, Worked fine, Then i ran redsnow on my 2G unlocked and jailbroke, Works no problem

pain killer how did you get that colored tmobile at the top and the percentage battery indicator

go to Cydia, Search: Crisp T-Mobile. The battery percentage indicator became available when i upgraded to 3.0

All i did was:

1)Upgrade Itunes to the newest version
2)Upgrade my iPhone with iTunes to 3.0
3)Phone became lock and needed SIM to unlock
4)Inserted my old ATT SIM and phone bacame Activated
5)Jailrake with redsn0w
6)Installed Ultrasn0w
7)Reinstalled Ultrasn0w cause it kept either searching or lost signal
8)Thats it...

i have an iPhone 3G

What carrier do you use? There is currently no known fix for Hacktivated 2G users - those who are using an unofficial carrier such as T-Mobile in the USA.

T-Mobile USA, Look at my earlier posts i have a screenshot, i can post another if you like, Its working no problem at all

Hmm your the first confirmed case i've seen all over the interwebs. I'll definitely give it a try. I only have access to a AT&T GoPhone SIM however.

You might want to report your success on these other forums - these guys are all looking for a 2g hactivated solution:

Heres some more pics of it working and a screenshot of my settings

I have two ATT sims, one wants me to go through some registration process and the other one just says waiting for activation, Then activates the phone, Thats the sim that works for me, Ive tried it on WIFI on EDGE push still works, Tried rebooting, tried it without my sim, Still works, ive tested just about every method and it seems to be working solid, No signal issues either, Seems to be with Redsnow my cell signal is better too

2G Proccess
1. Restore to 3.0 Factory
2 Put ATT sim in, make sure it doesnt want you to register, It should just activate your phone.
3. Test push notifications with like AIM Free or somthing
4 Jailbreak and Unlock with Redsnow
5 Put your Sim back in, and Test push again should be working
6 ENJOY!

I'm on 3g and I get a no sim message when rebooting my phone. Are you seeing this on the 3g at all? Everything works for me minus that small detail.

I would agree that should work....But what kind of ATT sim does not want you to register?? I have 2 - one that is activated from my old razor and one unactivated that came with the iPhone. They both want me to register via iTunes.

ok heres edge then, Happy?

I have two one works one doesnt, The first one wants to register with the sims phone number and stuff but the other one has been used in a iphone before so it just activates right away i noticed

So it has to be a previously activated ATT sim card?

Did it have to be used on an iPhone before, is the question.

[Pcpro745]

yes, the sim was in an iphone activated before i got it so im assuming the sim has to have been activated before but i could be wrong, The only way to figure out is put the sim in, if the phone says "Waiting for activation" youll be good to go, if itunes pops up with the iphone picture and ATT logo it wants to register that wont work unless you know the information to put in

it must need to be a previous activated iPhone sim. because i'm using a activated att sim from my old razor that i've been using on version 2.2.1 and it still is trying to get me to register via iTunes with ATT logo crap on the screen. so once i run redsn0w (im not choosing to unlock) im past the activation but i still cant get Push to work in AIM.

[96hondaex]

Someone needs to try it with a previously activated ATT sim from an iPhone and see if it works...
