Same here. Tried Telus sim and Rogers sim, both work in other devices. Carrier Settings says "Carrier 8.0" not Rogers/Telus 8.0... after boot iTunes asked about carrier update, said it was successful. Still no luck. Maybe Apple didn't include Carrier settings for all carriers in this beta?
Got a tip for us?

it works!!! basically take latest carrier bundle for your carrier, edit the version.plist file to be 8.1+, preform above mod to allow iTunes to take new bundles, and update your carrier settings.

I love Apple! I have been waiting for this since like march or something!
iPad finally getting OS4
I am not a registered developer with apple so I need the UDID. Can you help me? My email is "bastotook@gmail.com" Thanks.
If anyone wants to test out my iPad apps with 4.2 multitasking capability PM me and I can add your device so my app can be beta tested
Hey Graeme,
I can't PM you but I tried emailing you at your gamecenter email. If you have any spots left I'd be happy to test your apps on 4.2. If you didn't get my email it's grantalbq@msn.com. Thanks!
I still have plenty spaces open for testing an app for 4.2 features
Hey Graeme43,
If you have any spots left, I'd be happy to test your app for iPad 4.2

I wish my iPhone 3G with 4.2 had game center lol the ipod touch 2g has it
I would also gladly test your app for a chance to grab 4.2 for my iPad!

curl -s -L http://phobos.apple.com/version | grep -i carrier | grep Rogers

Try resetting network settings from Settings App -> General -> Reset on the iPad... then rebooting again once it finishes. Might restore your WIFI until it stops working again
Thanks for your reply. I think I misled with my post. I *was* unable to open *settings* (not control panel...) So wouldn't be able to get to the reset bit you mentioned.
Anyway - reinstalled and it seems to be ok at the moment.
Spoke too soon... The network went on me again. Also some apps weren't working.
So I have rolled back to 3.2.2. Will look at the next beta release.
I had the same issue. Powering off and on solved it. Resetting network settings probably would work, too.
Finally a bit of feature parity between my iPad and iPhone 4. It always felt a little backward going from iOS4 to 3.2.
Hmm, I've modded my T-Mobile ipcc and I also enabled the 'carrier-testing' for iTunes accepting the ipcc as noted above, but my iTunes doesn't let me select either the original downloaded ipcc or the compiled ipcc or zip. It's still gray :-(
Any ideas? Maybe iTunes 10 is the problem?!
[Edit]
Works now. My own fault: the downloaded ipcc was too old and so grayed out, and the newly build was just a .zip file still ;-) Removed the original, renamed the modded correctly as ipcc and it got accepted. But still, iPad says "Carrier 8.0" after adding the modded "T-Mobile 8.2" (8.1 original)... :-(
I've also tried to change "BuildVersion" and "SourceVersion" a bit higher, but no luck...

I've written up step by step instructions on how to get the latest .ipcc file, extract and update it, and have it applied in iTunes, specifically for Rogers Canada 3G.
