U.K. 1.1.2 Unlocked iPhone with O2 Simplicty Tariff and Data Bolt On

needing a bit of advice ..

I'm doing exactly what other folks have mentioned, I've got an iPhone, activated it through jailbreakme.com, and got my new O2 sim in.

Now, everything works fine, except when i'm sending texts, it says error sending texts. is that a known issue?

I just got my number ported over 15 mins ago, so my phone started getting the signal. edge seems to be working fine, calls are recieved and made. I'm even receiving texts from folks. It's just my texts are going out.

any suggestions?

cheers

Problems like this often happen during the porting process.



Might help if you switched your iPhone off and then on again.



Tell us how you get on.
 
Hey,

I also have a brand new O2 iPhone sat in a box next to me with an O2 Simplicity £15 per month sim. I had decided that was what I was going to do even before I saw this forum and thread - great minds (and glad someone had experimented before me!) :)

I just want to check that this is the best guide to follow being that 1.1.3 is now out. I understand that for Google maps locator to work you have to upgrade to the proper 1.1.3 as you need the new boot-thingy (forget what it's called) but not sure about the new jailbreak etc.

Am I best to follow this guide and then worry about 1.1.3 later?

Great forum by the way :)
 
Does everyone using GPRS get an error message when you try to use Youtube? Must be some kind of speed test.

Yes, it covers the EDGE costs. There is a fair usage limit of 200mb per month.

EDGE did not require any special set up - it just worked automatically.

Thanks to this thread i got the sim (on a staff deal haha) and it all works ace. edge is a breath of fresh air if you have been on noting but gprs.

So my friend is going to sell me is iphone cheap and i assume this is what i will have to do??

1) buy the iphone

2) buy the 02 simplicity 25 with the unlimited web bolt on?? Will this include the data for everything like youtube and email??

3) Unlock the iphone with a step by step guide or payed download?? which one is best??
