The bundles in Cydia are broken and the ones that are floating around the net that enable tethering are incomplete or broken. I have created my own bundles. They do not require jailbreaking and can be installed via iTunes. You will find bundles for different account types.
If you choose to share the bundles on other sites, please link bank to this thread or to my
Twitter account. So, people can receive updates. There are rumours that T-Mobile are training their employees for the Visual Voicemail launch at the end of July. These bundles will have to be updated with the Visual Voicemail settings if their implementation is compatible with the iPhone. The bundles were made for the 3.0 Firmware. They will work with any iPhone running iPhone OS 3.0. If you though you'll see an APN for it, Visual Voicemail will not work.
If anyone can suggest VPN settings, please do. I don't know how to configure VPN.
Besides, MMS and tethering, these bundles also have the proper T-Mobile carrier logo. No more scrolling logo or "T - ...". It shows "T-Mobile". When the phone is roaming on a UNKNOWN carrier, it will display the name sent by that carrier, which is long and won't fit in the allotted space. That's why it is scrolling. If you have installed Winterboard logo Cydia packages, or other packages that modify AT&T or Unknown carrier bundles, you will not see your custom logo anymore because once you install this carrier bundle, the carrier will be KNOWN. The new "T-Mobile" logo, which is just a plain word, is the official logo for T-Mobile in all other countries where it is an official iPhone carrier. It is a graphic. That's why it is not scrolling. iPhone logos are not meant to have colours, drawings or other aberrations.
WARNING: If the current version that you have installed fully works for you now, DO NOT upgrade. You are not likely to gain new features, but lose some if the updated bundle is broken.
DOWNLOAD VERSION 1.0.3
I will not create additional logos bundles for those that can't live with the plane iPhone. Don't whine if you see problems. Those are normal PNGs. They are not iPhone encoded. They may slow your Springboard or use more memory. I have compressed them as much as I can, but I don't have the PNG to iPhone PNG converter. I aim to stay official. You will never see themes and crazy logos on my phone. Rename the IPCC to zip, extract it. Overwrite the files in Payload/TMobile_us/. Zip the Payload folder. Change extension to IPCC.
