Tmobile Web Edge $5.99

[carfac]

Just ran it again- 149kbps this time.

Then I noticed this:

iPhones on ATT Averages:

all time averages: 130 kbps (13749 samples)
24 hour average: 131 kbps

So, at least for me, tmo is a bit faster than the ATT averages

>>> how is it when u are surfing the net or watching movies in youtube? compare it to wi-fi (get dslreports test)

I surf a bit- I use this a LOT when my daughter is at Ballet or Karate (helps blow the time).

Yes, it is slow compared to DSL, but not too bad. Better than being bored. I do tend to stick to more text based sites when possible. But once a page is loaded, if you are doing a lot of reading, speed makes no difference.

I have not tried YouTube on EDGE. It is fine on WiFi at home.

I can get a speed report for WiFi tonight.

Carfac,

Thanks. In the Tweaks 1.1.3 folder there doesn't appear to be anything stated as TMobile Carrier Logo, but I'll check later tonight and report back.

Did you use the command line or the GUI 2.4 version of Ziphone? It appears the command line version runs without error, and although I got 1 error returned everything is fine so far, but would that possibly impact T-Zones? I wouldn't think so.

iPhone is with wife and she's using it - will report later tonight.

That is WEIRD! It's right there for me! Do you have a Tweaks (1.1.1), Tweaks (1.1.2) and Tweaks (1.1.3) folders? What version of Installer? Mine just says 3.0, not sure how to check that further. I assume you have updated sources...

On this phone, GUI 2.3. On my wifes, 2.4 command line. No errors on either.

Maybe you MIGHT want to think about restoring as a new phone back to 1.1.3, and doing it all over? I know, a hassle, but if you have an iMac, you can restore in one account, then mate it with the "real" account and restore your info.

Carfac,

I have Tweaks, Tweaks 1.1.2 and Tweaks 1.1.3 folders. I'm not sure of the installer version since I don't have the iPhone on me.

I will remove ALL applications tonight and re-install. I noticed I had problems doing the BSD and OpenSSH installs since the iPhone was trying to lock to available Wifi networks. I will turn off Wifi and then re-install BSD, OpenSSH and TMobile Carrier Logo.

I might put back the ATT SIM and restore the device to original and start over with the process, but this time use the command line version of Ziphone 2.4 for Mac. As you've suggested.

Thanks for the help and I'll keep you posted.
