I did this and now my Iphone won’t connect to Itunes and tethering doesn’t work. Do a google search, it’s happening to other people also. How can I undo this?! Also APPLE IS EVIL! Only Apple would have the power to alter Itunes to no longer interface with my Iphone (without an update I might add). Dear Apple, I hope you have a secret contract with AT&T that is forcing you to be so dickish, and if you do if I were you I’d leak that thing ASAP so you stop taking all these nasty PR hits (see Gvoice app store debacle).

Well… worked until the last step. All was fine, but on iTunes when clicking update – didn’t update… just said “you have 3.01″. So – that’s not good.

Rebooted phone – lost all addresses. Hoping they’ll re synch with me.com.

Thanks for this, obviously works for some… but US AT&T (at least me)… didn’t.

Best
Patrick

Super Jealous of everyones awesome luck with getting this working! ARG! not sure why it won’t for me. tried a couple of different guides
including these…

http://www.9to5mac.com/iPhone-3G-tethering
http://gadgetsteria.com/2009/06/18/tether-iphone-3-0-for-free-jailbreak-not-required/
and
http://macmegasite.com/node/7173

but still nothing. I’ve reset my network settings. tried different ipcc’s from different sources. The iphone is a 1st gen, jail broken and unlocked with pwn to get it on AT&T pick your plan.

Could it be the Jailbreakedness that causing issues?

Did your friend already bought an iPhone 3GS for you? It takes 1-2 weeks from ORDER to DELIVER. My friend (stay in HK) order mine on 20th July 09, expect ships on 03 August 09, Expect deliver on 04 August 09. Another friend visits Hong Kong and comes back on 04 August 09. That’s why I hope Apple will ships on time.

About the price of iPhone 3GS in HK: 16GB = around 695$US, 32GB = around 811$US (HKD6,288.00). http://store.apple.com/hk/browse/home/shop_iphone/family/iphone?mco=MTE2OTU

I can enable internet tethering on iPhone, but I still cannot access internet from Laptop through iPhone yet. I think, maybe something wrong with the settings. For me I set to:

Custom carriers
Name: Mfone INTERNET
APN: mfone
User name: Blank
Passwords: Blank

However now I have no iPhone, already sold, I’m waiting the new iPhone 3GS, just ask friend to order from Hong Kong, hope Apple HK will deliver on time, that take 1-2 weeks. If not on time I’ll have no iPhone until September 2009. It will be sorrow and very bad.

ATT tethering does work. head over to help.benm.at ON THE IPHONE and download the config for ATT aftert that turn off the phone and restart. the best part is that it is completly reversable. i tried it on my w3g iphone and then removed it due to VVM not working but it is so simpole to put back on that it can be done on the go! give it a try you won’t regret it.

I tried those hacks out but it did not work with my Proximus provider.

I found necessary to share this URL where Internet tethering is really simple and automatically installed on iPhone 3G :

I wrote a more detailed description for people aren’t familiar with editing property lists or the caveats of messing with this kind of stuff.

It might be worth trying if you had trouble with this guide.

Also Dave is right. If you visit http://help.benm.at/ using your iPhone they can email you settings for many providers already. Excellent stuff – I already submitted my carrier settings to them hope they get it up soon.

PRO TIP

Instead of installing an older version of iTunes you can re-enable “Carrier testing” mode in iTunes by quiting iTunes, opening Terminal and copypasting the following line into terminal:

defaults write com.apple.iTunes carrier-testing -bool TRUE

then press return, and open iTunes. iTunes will now accept .ipcc files whe you option-click “Check for Update.” !
