iPhone Carrier hack patch, get better service/bars from your carrier.

Results on Canadian Carrier Rogers

I have a 6+ in Calgary, Alberta.

I found the patch to slow my download speeds by about 25% but boosted my upload speed by 50+%.

This would be useful if you upload a lot of photos or video from your phone.
 
I tried the new AT&T file on a 8.1.2 jailbreak but it doesn't seem to work. My service is stuck at 'searching'. Anyone else have this problem and is there a fix?

Just tried it on my end, to no avail. The AT&T beta 3 file is in the link on the main page.

Just checked and it's not showing the beta file for att, just the new finished one.

I haven't had a chance to try the new one but can you go back to beta 3? You also might wanna try restarting the phone

I'm in the same boat. I've got nothing but searching.
Does anyone still have the beta 3 file we could use instead?


Edit: I re "updated" the carrier file, rebooted, and then reinstalled Chinasnow and magically my service came back. Very weird.
anyway, I'm up and running which is good!

Edit 2: (iPhone 6 ATT 8.1.1) Apparently I somehow reverted back to 18.0 and that's why I got my service back. I tried updating to beta 3 ipcc and it gives me searching.
Then removed that to start fresh and installed the "official" one and it magically works even though the first time I tried to use it it wouldn't. I'm baffled but up and running. Verified that carrier is 20.5.0

Did you re update with the new file ?? Thanks!!
 
iPhone 6, Verizon

Installed the (beta) Verizon carrier hack patch, didn't really notice any appreciable speed or coverage benefits. But after a few days started to notice failure to activate cellular data network - messages were defaulting to text message, couldn't use LTE data, etc. until I would reboot the phone. So I uninstalled. I think they need to work on the Verizon patch a bit more before it's ready for prime time.

I guess it's like arguing with someone who says the bible is real and god exists. There's no amount of logic you can throw that'll disprove them if they believe.

I'm curious as to why you felt the need to throw a religious argument into a thread about a carrier hack? Did God kill your puppy?

thanks a bunch. i tried the beta 3 file as well and it still ends up as 'searching'. it works fine on my 8.1.1 iphone 6 but on the 8.1.2 iphone 6+, it's not working. i've reverted back to stock.

No prob, but the beta 3 is even doing it now after I just restored. I'm curious if it's allowing iTunes to apply the recent ATT carrier update that's the culprit. Anyone else?
 
I tried everyway I could think of but looks like since trying the latest ipcc even the last beta isn't working now.
Anyone else figured a way to fix this?
 
Is there anyway that we can have this hack for different countries also? :rolleyes:
Finland for example?
