Hi Hackers,

So recently got my iPhone, but I've had a Touch since they came out. Once Pwnage was release it became my prefered jailbreak and used it to build a custom 1.1.4 for my phone. The Pwning went fine, and the installation of the custom fw went fine as well. But, after a day or two I noticed that all my Visual Voicemail messages were nothing but static. Including ones I had previously listened to. I restored, re-pwned, installed the fw, and all was good for a couple days and all of a sudden, same problem, static. I called 1-800-MYIPHONE and after the tech knew I had tried reseting various settings and restoring he figured we should get AT&T on the horn. They thought removing and re-installing visual voicemail on their end would fix it, and they tried several time to no avail.

So, I restored, and this time I've kept it stock to see if the problem was with Pwnage. It's killing me have my poor phone in jail, but it was the last variable so I'm waiting to see if the problem returns. If so, I smell a new iPhone in my future. The Apple and AT&T techs were pretty stumped!

Anyone else have this problem?
 
I dont think the phone or pwn has anything to do with it.

Have you tried calling the phone's voicemail and checking it the old fashioned way?

oh yeah. first thing i tried. and at&t tried every way possible to reset my voicemail on their end. pwnage is the only variable so far that has had any effect. i've made mulitple versions of custom 1.1.4's and they all seem to do it.
 
So far so good with my latest attempt. I built a new custom firmware (3rd one) and haven't had the static issue re-surface (knock on wood). Pwnage is just so much more stable than other jb's I had to keep trying.
