I have an unlocked/jailbroken iphone. I have the using the Big Boss' $5.99 T-Mobile Proxy hack. Everything works fine, s-l-o-w but fine. If I move to the $19.99 plan do I just uninstall the hack and change the apn to internet2.voicestream.com?

Thanks!

If everything is working fine why are you going to the $19.99 plan? it's not any faster

Actually, the $19.99 plan is a bit faster and less restricted (tested in various markets). Where you average 100Kbps w/ the proxy, you get around 160-170Kbps w/ the Internet Plan)

It's slow and wanted to see how it is with the $19.99 plan. I'd go back if it wasn't noticeably different.

So, if I move to the $19.99 plan do I just uninstall the hack and change the apn to internet2.voicestream.com?

You guys correct me if im wrong but I was reading on modmyifone forums and someone said that Tmobile is finding out about the Tzone hack and bumping people off.

I got my phone yesterday and never got tzone to work on my iphone. I followed all the steps by going to installer and installing all the package and hack needed and still no luck.

I mean having a $14 discount on EDGE versus the $19.99 is a plus but for myself I never had internet. I think im just going to upgrade to the 19.99 plan unless someone knows of a fix.

I got t-zones to work on my iPhone but my youtube never worked and that was very essentional for me so I had no choice but to upgrade to the 19.99 plan. And I have to admit it is kinda faster and better.

I had both $19.99 total internet and the $5.99 t-zones. To me the total internet is a lil faster but not for the extra $14 a month, well atleast for me cause im around wifi or my macbook about 85%-90% of my day.

So I did the upgrade to the $19.99.plan and it is noticeably faster. I've used it while waiting around at my daughters gymnastics class, and now, as I wait my turn to get a haircut. Browsing the internet is a little better. Before I had to really wait for the pages to pull up but now I just kind of wait. When the new iPhone comes out I thinking of going with at&t for the 3G speed. But for now I'm good.

Question. Does changing the APN from wap.voicestream.com to internet2.voicestream.com make a diff when you switch from TMobile Web ($5.99) plan to Total Internet Plan ($19.99). I was told nada but in reading the thread it appears to be the case. True?
