Indeed, iOS 4 Seems to have broken my 3G Data Access. I cannot access mail, stocks, weather, anything. I am able to make calls and receive text message. Earlier today I updated to OS4 with relatively no troubles, aside from the time it took to download it. Any thoughts? Ideas? Of course, I bring my laptop to Starbucks only to realize I don't have a cable to connect my phone to my laptop. Duh. Might have to come back. Help?
Got a tip for us?

Well there have been quite a few posts recently... Tho it would take a bit of effort to find.
Although handy Google does show that alot of web results about it. Might also want to search on MMS as well as Visual Voicemail issues are related to the Data access issues.
The responses have been similar though. Restore from backup or setting up as new phone and then doing a restore after.

This had no effect.
I am currently restoring. Looks like restoring from a back up brings the problem back, might bite the bullet and set up as new phone to see if that fixes it.
What's frustrating is I cannot restore my phone without an Internet connection, I am currently using a neighbors wifi signal on my phone which isn't strong enough to be picked up on my laptop.
Called AT&T, the nice lady said NYC is experiencing an outage. Right. Well, I guess I wait.

A poster in another thread has isolated the problem and confirmed with AT&T that this is affecting those who've jailbroken their iPhones.

Had the same problem of no MMS or data access after updating a jail broken 3GS. I tried restoring, and reinstalling iOS4, to no avail.
I eventually restored and set it up as a new phone, effectively installing a "clean" version of the OS, and that did the trick, *but* I lost all of my text messages and who knows what else.
Now that i have a properly functioning OS4 (with MMs capability - an indicator that the OS4 installed correctly) I'll restore from a previous backup to see if i've synced all of my previous data.

They're completely full of ****, I've never jailbroken my phone.

Lots of people have this problem. Somehow APN settings got corrupt during the upgrade and now they're in my backups. So any time I restore it breaks.
