Want EDGE on your T Mobile iPhone?
I’ve had my hacked iPhone for quite a while now and always wondered if I can use T Mobile’s data plan on it. I called customer service and asked if I would be able to run their data plan on my iPhone, the person I spoke with told me that it was impossible and cannot be done. I refused to believe this so I did my research online on using T Mobile’s EDGE with the iPhone, and low and behold there are quite a few iPhone owners out there using the T Mobile EDGE connection. It looks like you CAN USE T Mobile’s T Zones internet connection on your iPhone. The best part is it only cost $5.99 a month!Now this requires a simple hack but it is very easy to follow, let’s get to it:
You will need iBrickr to browse the file system of your iPhone.
Download iBrickr
If you’ve never used iBrickr before visit the link below for a video tutorial:
View tutorial
If iBrickr doesn’t work for you, try using WINSCP, it will also allow you to view and modify the files in your iPhone much like iBrickr.
Once you have iBrickr downloaded and the PXL files installed on your iPhone, you will launch iBrickr.exe. You’ll see the main interface, click on files to browse your phone’s file system.
( This procedure is for firmware 1.1.2 and under )
Locate /private/var/root
Launch notepad and paste this code:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
{
if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "25.0.0.0", "255.0.0.0"))
return "PROXY 216.155.165.50:8080";
else
return "DIRECT";
}
Save the file as proxy.pac and upload it to /private/var/root
Right-click this file and select “Save Link As”, you need to save the file as preferences.plist, you will then upload preferences.plist into the following iPhone directory:
/private/var/root/Library/Preferences/
SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
NOTE : If you are on firmware 1.1.3 and 1.1.4, upload the preferences.plist to this directory:
/private/var/preferences/SystemConfiguration
This will over write the current file that’s already in that directory.
Now grab your iPhone and tap Settings – General – Network – EDGE. The APN you will use is wap.voicestream.com, username and password will be guest. Reboot your iPhone and voila…you should be able to browse online using EDGE.
NOTE: After performing this hack I noticed that EDGE interfered with my wifi connection at home. If this happens to you, here’s a very helpful solution. Launch iBrickr.exe again, this time we will click on Applications. Click on the Browse Applications button, this will launch a list of 3rd party apps you can install at your will, for our purpose we will install an app called Services. Basically this will allow you to turn off WiFi, Bluetooth, and EDGE.
Once you’re done with the installation, iPhone will reboot and on your Springboard you should see a Services icon, tap the icon and here you can toggle between your EDGE and WiFi connection. Here’s the screenshot:
UPDATES…UPDATES…UPDATES… UPDATES…UPDATES…
Updated 07/01/09
If you’re on firmware 3.0, there’s no need to perform this hack. All you need to do is set up your APN. Go to Settings – General – Network – Cellular Data Network. In the APN field enter wap.voicestream.com, leave the username and password blank. That’s all you need to do to get EDGE running on your iPhone.
Updated 9/01/08
T-Mobile USA has changed the IP address in their system for the T-Zones service. For anyone on 1.1.4 and below you will have to SSH in and manually change your settings or upgrade to 2.0+ and install the NEW T-Zones Hack provided by Big Boss in Cydia. For anyone on 2.0+ who has the previous hack installed you will need to update to the new one.
You must subscribe to the $5.99 T-Zones service for the T-Zones hack to work.
“For 1.1.x users that really don’t want to upgrade, you can fix proxy.pac yourself but editing the file /var/preferences/proxy.pac and changing 10.0.0.0? to 25.0.0.0”
Updated 2/19/08
This hack works on firmware 1.1.3, it’s been verified by a couple readers from this blog. The preferences.plist can be found at this directory:
/private/var/preferences/SystemConfiguration
Updated 1/10/08
I’ve decided to copy this post over to a different forum so that others can post and maybe offer some suggestions or tips on making this work. Please go to: http://www.iphoneshowoff.com
Updated 12/20/07
Download the zipped file below and used these files if you are having trouble renaming your files. This zipped file contains proxy.pac and preferences.plist – preferences.plist may just show up as preferences depending on your pc, this is fine…just upload these 2 files to the appropriate locations.
Updated 12/01/07
This hack works on firmware 1.1.1. I finally updated my firmware and EDGE works flawlessly. I have both the 4GB and 8GB updated to 1.1.1 and so far everything is working as it should.
Updated 10/25/07
Some people are having problems with the preferences.plist I have, if the one I provided doesn’t work out for you try using the one from the link below:
http://uneasysilence.com/archive/2007/09/12232/
Thanks Paul !!!
Updated 10/24/07Here’s a comprehensive list of EDGE settings for different countries:
http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html
Updated 10/23/07There seems to be a bit of confusion about making this hack work, let me just clarify a few things.
- You don’t have to buy the $19.99 data plan with T Mobile, the $5.99 plan is all you need.
- There are 2 files you need in order to make this work, proxy.pac and preferences.plist (both are on this page).
- To enable EDGE go to Settings – General – Network – EDGE. APN will be wap.voicestream.com, username and password will be guest.

Hi
Im just wondering if this hack will work for a prepaid tmobile plan: pay-as-you-go plan. I have limited sites( espn, abc, cnn), but i know there is way to hack it so that you can have unlimited sites. ANyone know?
Friday, 21. November 2008
in order for all these steps to work, do I need to have the 5.99 tzones plan? or can I simply use the unlimted 19.99 plan? and where can I download the program which you can sync the iphone in order to transfer these codes???

confing t-mobile for iphone 2g
Saturday, 15. November 2008
So how do I go about getting an “unlocked” iphone…and what should I expect to pay? And if I get one…do I just take the sim card out of my current Tmobile phone plug it in, perform the mods above and run with it?
Wednesday, 12. November 2008

Sunday, 2. November 2008
can i unlock the new 3g iphone? would i be able to get a downgrade?
Saturday, 1. November 2008
That’s nice but how do you actually add the T-Zones plan to a prepaid T-Mobile account?
I can’t do this online and if I’m on EDGE on my iPhone I can’t go to any website, not even t-zones.
Thanks for any help.l
Monday, 27. October 2008
So after reading all the replies, no one mentions if it’s all worth it. I want the iphone but am T-mobile loyal. Is it worth hacking into or wait until T-mobile gets the I-phone legally
October 27th, 2008 at 3:05 pm
In my opinion it is absolutely worth it. I love my iPhone, it’s like having a laptop inside your pocket. As a matter of fact, I use it more than I use my laptop. You should definitely get one, you won’t regret it!
Monday, 13. October 2008
I have unlocked iPhone and T-Mobile working great. I started with the $5.99 Tzones plan with the Tzone hack from Cydia. It worked but it was REALLLLLLYYYY SLOOWWW when it worked and sometimes it just plain didn’t work at all depending on my location.
Today I called and upgraded my plan to the $19.99 plan to see if there is any speed or more coverage improvements. I did this about 5 hours ago.
My question is: Does anyone know or can confirm that the $19.99 plan actually gives us better/faster service than the $5.99 plan? Or are they exactly the same? I would like to hear from people who have tried both, or just plain know because they either work for T-Mobile or are experts at this type of stuff.
Thanks!!
October 13th, 2008 at 9:47 pm
Joey,
EDGE connection is very slow, you’ll be lucky to get a 56K connection. My speed varies from location to location…although lately I have noticed that my average speed is above 56K.
I’m pretty sure the $19.99 plan is just as slow, because it’s also running on the same EDGE network.

October 11th, 2008 at 3:56 am
I am going to write in here it might be something with the space of the blog, anyway, I got the Pnwag tool and ready to do the upgrade it doesnt let me. If I am on expert, i try to do the installer and the cindya, then take me to other screen where i jsut click on, show me the content, of the two packages I choose, next to the logo with the pineaple and the cartoon of the guy, then takes me back to the applications where i can see text, installer, cindya, etc.
Please help, i think will be better if you email me at escogido77@yahoo.com
Thanks in ADVANCE!
Friday, 10. October 2008
JON B or anyone here, please help, I just got my iphone 8g first generation to work with Tmobile, is working now with the unlimited internet data Access which cost $19.99 freaking dollars, but if i cna save $15 that will be awesome!!.
So I unlocked jail… with the IZphone or something like that, that has El Zorro and his blade as an icon.
I want to be able to use this hack to use it with tzones, but I dont know how to get to those list, directory and all that complex codes that you talk about in the forum, tell me what software do I need in order to access and copy, paste, etc all this files.
I do have a mac so not windows software please.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

October 10th, 2008 at 5:11 pm
I would recommend to just upgrade your firmware to 2.0 or above. The upgrade is fairly easy using PWNAGE ( http://wikee.iphwn.org/ ) Once upgraded, you just use Cydia to install the T Zones hack. very easy to do!
October 11th, 2008 at 3:44 am
Job B, after like 8 hours trying to hack this thing, and getting messages in my email that someone has responded me in this site for some reason I cant see them.
Please help !!
October 10th, 2008 at 5:55 pm
Thanks man you are almost my hero!, well you are not matter what man.
Anyway, so does the phone need to be connected to my mac or not? everything will take place in the phone or in the computer screen, if that is the case?
once again excuse my ignorance
October 10th, 2008 at 11:09 pm
Jon B, first i want to say that i got two more notifications about someone reply to my question but are not here, where are they???
And second, I donwload the PWNAG tool, I unzip the quickpwang file but then when I want to run the other ones with tar extensions it or the others with .exe doesnt let me, its say is not executable, I have a Mac and not a PC let me know is this is the right version or not.
Cydia is there, i click on the application but just flash once and nothing happen.
Help PLEASE!!
October 10th, 2008 at 5:43 pm
Jon B, thanks for the input!!!
But once I get the PWANGE and upgrading to 2.0 then how do I use Cydia, how do i get it, and install the TZONes Hack?? I have a vague idea of the TZones hack is a file in that Cydia software right?? the Boss tzones something, that is what I have read above.
But please be more specific… excuse my ignorance bro.
October 10th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
When you do the upgrade, it will automatically install Cydia on your iPhone. Once you have Cydia, launch it, click on Sections – Tweaks and look for T Zones hack.

hey I tried it , by god it works!!! had the iPhone connected to the internet in under 5 minutes
Wednesday, 24. September 2008
I’ve had mostly everything working for quite a while now, but I’m wondering if there is anyway to access the Appstore or iTunes when using T-Mobile’s EDGE network. I’m using the most recent firmware and have everything but these two working. Thanks for any help!
September 24th, 2008 at 8:47 pm
You can access the App Store with EDGE but not the iTunes Store.
Sunday, 21. September 2008
just go to this and follow the steps all you need is to download a file http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6OE4BUxF44
Monday, 8. September 2008
Jon,
I’m on a T-Mobile family plan and currently don’t own an iPhone. However, I was considering buying one, after i made sure that i can keep T-Mobile and still use all of the iPhones internet features. This plan sounds great, but I’ve never done any type of hacking and really don’t want to spend all that money on an iPhone and then screw it up. Can hacking severely harm my phone if i mess up, or is it not as complicated as it seems?
September 22nd, 2008 at 12:00 am
There’s a pretty good chance you can mess up your phone but you can always restore it to factory setting.
September 21st, 2008 at 11:55 pm
if your know computer savvy and never hacked , i suggest you don’t because you could mess up the hardware

Please use the following sequence to restore the iphone when nothing works:
DFU Restore Mode:
1. Boot phone 2. Hold Power + Home until the screen goes BLACK 3. Continue to hold home and let go of power 4. Plug into iTunes (screen should still be BLACK) 5. Within 20 seconds it should come up in recovery mode 6. Let go of Home and hit RESTORE in iTunes.
Firmware 2.0 DFU: 1. Power phone OFF. 2. Hold power + home for 10 seconds. 3. Let go of power and continue to hold home until iTunes finds the phone.
Friday, 5. September 2008
I tried to make my iPhone work on t-mobile network, and i really messed it up. I had cyntia installed and edge still did not work, so I said I give it a try with ibrickr. done that, and it asked me to downgrade it, which I accepted, and asked to be done. Once the phone restarted, it keeps on showing code on the screen, then restarting again, then again code, and that’s about it. Any help with this would be appreciated.
September 5th, 2008 at 5:25 am
I managed to restore it, and I am now unlocking it, BUT I LOST the data from it, so if anyone else tries it, please backup all your files.
Tuesday, 2. September 2008
I keep on receiving an internal error. I am able to access yahoo.com but nothing else. HELP!!!

t-mobile edge currently blocked. is there other way to acticate it with $5.99 plan or have to be 19.99 plan im on 2.0.2 thanks
September 1st, 2008 at 8:43 pm
T Mobile USA recently updated their IP address which affected the T Zones EDGE hack. See link below:
http://www.modmyifone.com/forums/news/315441-new-t-zones-hack.html
Friday, 29. August 2008
Quick question. With the T-Zone internet plan, will email push to the phone? It may have been answered previously, but there is to many comments to read.
Thanks
Wednesday, 27. August 2008
anyone have the original preferences.plist file? i think i’m just gonna restore it and pay the 19.99.. i can’t figure this hack out.
Tuesday, 26. August 2008
and to add on to my iphone problems, i installed that “service” app so i could turn off edge and use wifi but now it seems to be unresponsive. i click off on edge and when i go to the home page it doesn’t turn off. and since edge isn’t working properly and i can’t switch to wi fi i can’t access SSH. please tell me all this is fixable.
August 27th, 2008 at 12:26 am
Yes it is fixable….just do a restore and unlock and jailbreak the iPhone.
August 27th, 2008 at 12:31 am
I was able to get wi fi working again but my edge still isn’t working. i’ve done these steps multiple times and nothing seems to work. do you know what i can do?
September 5th, 2008 at 8:32 am
T Mobile recently changed their ip address. Copy the following and save it as proxy.pac
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
{
if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), “25.0.0.0″, “255.0.0.0″))
return “PROXY 216.155.165.50:8080″;
else
return “DIRECT”;
}
Upload it to:
private/var/root
Tuesday, 26. August 2008
i tried it again and YAHOO! worked but that was it. i tried going to a different page and this message came up: “internal error You do not have access to the site in http://www.google.com/“

Monday, 25. August 2008
hey guys i need some help. i currently using the iphone that i unlock. i sign up for the tmobile web, which tmobile said its the same as tzone. but i still cant the iphone to work. can someone help me. i have the version 2.0.1.
August 26th, 2008 at 1:10 am
Use the cydia installer to install the T-Mobile Web Fix and then wait a few hours, or attempt to hack your phone through ssh, T-Mobile Web will not work by itself without making a few modifications.
August 27th, 2008 at 12:25 am
Yes some readers have reported that their EDGE suddenly started working. So give it some time, not sure if it’s something within the T Mobile’s network.
August 25th, 2008 at 9:21 am
If you’re on firmware 2.0.1 don’t use this hack…use the app found in Cydia, it’s much simpler than this procedure.
August 25th, 2008 at 11:49 am
what app do i look for in cydia? thanks jon
August 25th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
Go into Cydia, click on Sections at the bottom, scroll down until you see tweaks, the look for the T Zones Hack, Just install that and it should allow you to use EDGE on your iPhone.
Monday, 25. August 2008
The T-Mobile egde works, its a bit slow, and you get a bunch of error screens, but it is good enough to check your e-mail, surf and use Maps.
Saturday, 23. August 2008
Hi there, quick question…
So with this iphone hack, I will be able to cancel my $19.99 data plan, and go to the $5.99 plan, and I will still be able to get EDGE service anywhere or just a ‘tzone’ or whatever that is called?
Nice look on the site, btw.
August 23rd, 2008 at 10:31 pm
Yes you can use the $5.99 plan although I think T Mobile no longer offers that. I believe they have changed it to the $9.99 plan, this will work with the iPhone as well.
Monday, 18. August 2008
has anyone downgraded from the 19.99 Internet service to the 5.99 from T mobile
If yes how did it work?
Is it slower?
Sunday, 17. August 2008
Fav 5’s are handled on the t-mobile side, not by your phone, but you will not have a nice looking display, like on a real t-mobile phone with the 5 pictures in a circle, but you just add them as favorites. And weird fact, you can change your fav 5’s in the middle of the month, if you have been calling someone way too much.
Sunday, 17. August 2008
Will i still have my top 5 contacts woriking when i put my sim card in my iphone or what. and will everything on my iphone keep working the way it did.
Sunday, 10. August 2008
Here is the current information on the iPhone 3G, it can be jail broken, the base band can be downgraded[Possible], but no unlock solution has been released.
If you are planning to unlock the iPhone 3G(Future) so it can be used on non-at&t networks then the only new features to work will be GPS, the 3G hardware will not work with T-Mobile 3G.
There is no unlock currently available for the iPhone 3G, and you must buy a contract with AT&T to get one, I would recommend purchasing an older iPhone, which can be unlocked & jail broken and you can use t-mobile’s edge, or wifi for internet access.
Saturday, 9. August 2008
but if i do buy the new iphone is it worth it and is it hack able?
Saturday, 9. August 2008
Don’t buy a 3G iPhone, they actually cost more with the service plan, 200 off is a scam, and 3G isn’t in all areas yet, which is ok for me because I have WiFi access everywhere and Edge for on the go. Just buy a old iPhone off Craigslist or E-Bay, you can find a deal, just search around and watch out for scammers.
Friday, 8. August 2008
Ok when you do buy an iphone dont you have to buy a plan???
Wednesday, 6. August 2008
Why are you using ibrickr? just use ZiPhone for all activities, and then install SSH for root access.
Wednesday, 6. August 2008
in ibrickr when I try to download an app a window comes up and says iphoneinterface.exe has stopped working. Also now in my installer in my phone I can’t download/update my apps. Anyone know how to fix this?
Tuesday, 5. August 2008
Is you sim card upside down?
Tuesday, 5. August 2008
I unlocked and jailbreak my iphone but now it does not recognize my t-mobile sim card….what am i missing
Sunday, 3. August 2008
The 3G iPhone is not unlockable yet, it can only be jailbroken.
Sunday, 3. August 2008
I have a plan with tmobile and internet the 5.99 running perfect in an Iphone 1st generation.
Yesterday I found an Iphone 3G in the train. (I am happy for that)
My questions
can I unlocked the Iphone 3G and put in it my tmobile sim card to work?
where is the information about it ?
Thanks.
Friday, 1. August 2008
Khang you can switch back and forth. The firmware is in settings.
Friday, 1. August 2008
Okay, to answer some questions. If you already have the $19.99 plan with T-Mobile all you need to do is change the settings to internet2.voicestream.com.
This WILL work with 1.1.4v firmware.
And, to clarify this is NOT 3G speed, even with the hack, 3G is third-gen, only available on AT&T. This is similar to the AT&T EDGE speed, but 3G is about 1.5-2 times as fast (only on AT&T though, T-Mobile doesn’t have a 3G network).
Thursday, 31. July 2008
Can it work on firmware 1.1.4? How to check firmware though? If we use this hack then the phone will disable the Wifi right? Can we switch back and forth
=> New Iphone user, please advise !!!
Thanks,
Thursday, 31. July 2008
i’ve read all these posts and im trying to understand .. now you can both unlock both iphones (1st and 2nd}…. im jus wondering if there dif methods to do this and briefly explain how….
Monday, 28. July 2008
The Faves should work, they are handled on the T-Mobile side, not your phone.
Monday, 28. July 2008
Okay, so I’ve been trying to do my research and it looks like any 1st or 2nd gen IPhone can be unlocked, including those updated to 2.0 firmware (as of a few weeks ago). The only question remaining is will this work with my T-Mobile Faves? I’ve seen one post on YouTube saying Yes, but I’d trust you people more. Anyone using their Iphone with Faves? Thanks in advance. Just waiting for confirmation before trying to pick one up!
Wednesday, 23. July 2008
Well, first I tried to use the old method, describe above, but modifying the files manually, since the preferences.plist file is not the same. I had to install OpenSSH from cydia and I installed the terminal emulator so that I can run ifconfig & ping. The preference file is located in a Preferences folder not contained in the root folder, look around you will eventually find it. I learned that for t-mobile you do not need a username/password, leave those fields blank. For a while Edge would not work, but I had an IP, but after I Installed the T-Mobile Edge fix from Cydia everything started to work, but I don’t know if it really did anything, it seems that edge takes a really long tiime to start up for the first time.
Monday, 21. July 2008
SlashAndBurn, Can you describe exactly what you did to get T-mobile to work? I have successfully unlocked my 2.0 iPhone (2G), but I cannot get the internet/data to work. Phone and Wifi work well. What did you do through the terminal emulator?
Sunday, 20. July 2008
That’s awsome!!! I’m really considering to do this
thanks!
Sunday, 20. July 2008
A update, I installed the T-Mobile Edge Fix from Cydia and made sure that I did not have a user name/password in my edge settings and…
By using the terminal emulator I was able to verify that having a user name/password would result in not getting a iP address.
But after fighting with the phone for a while I was able to get T-Mobile Edge to work on a 2G phone running iPhone OS 2.0.
Sunday, 20. July 2008
The iPhone 2.0 Os has been jailbroken and the current instructions don’t seem to work. The file locations have changed once again and the contents is not the same.
Wednesday, 16. July 2008
Hello,
I have an unlocked I phone and I am using t zones perfectly fine, but i can not get the maps to give me directions. I can find locations but no directions there. Can someone help me?

Tuesday, 15. July 2008
Will this work with the new firmware 2.0 upgrade? I’m thinking of picking up an old EDGE iPhone to use with my tMobile account. Thanks!

@ Whahoo
Yes you can use the phone strictly for internet purposes i.e. Wi-Fi although that would beat the whole purpose of getting a cool phone like an iPhone.
You do have to have it jailbroken not unlocked if you’re not concerned about using its phone features.

So is it possible to use the iphone (or iphone 3G once it get’s unlocked) internet functions using wifi ONLY and not use/pay for EDGE or 3G? Would the weather and stuff still update when wifi is available? If that’s possible would I be able to do it on both At&T and Tmoblie?
I want to get an iphone but don’t want to pay for internet service since I’m usually at school and have wifi. Is this a feasible option? Thanks

I was wondering if the internet for T-mobile would be the same speed as at&t 3g? Or is it a bit slower? I was also wondering, if I bought a iphone anytime soon would the firmware be to high to hack the iphone or no?

Hi, I am having problem, i need help!
I subscribe 19.99 internet add-on with tmobile. I added APN “internet2.voicestream.com” and my edge connection was working perfect until a week ago, but all of the sudden, it stop working. Safari, youtube and other stuff do not work but sometimes I receive emails.
EDGE has IP address on my iphone, so i think it means that Im getting a connection, but it does not work!!!!
What would be reasons?? Please help!

Hi Clay,
I wouldn’t trust anything T Mobile tells you, of course they would want you to buy the more expensive plan. You do not have to have the $19.99 plan, I believe they have changed the $5.99 T Zones plan to $9.99. I’m still using the $5.99 T Zones plan and I haven’t had any issues with it, as a matter of fact it works perfectly fine using wap.voicestream.com. So my advice is go with the $9.99 plan and save you some hard earned money!

Newbie iphone user here… I just jailbreaked my iphone (Version 1.1.4) last night using Ziphone and I just put my T-mobile sim card into iphone and everything has been working just fine (phone, internet via wifi at home, etc) but I was unable to get internet access away from my wifi… So I started diggin online and found this site and following the advice here, I called T-mobile and asked for the T-Zone $5.99 online feature and T-mobile said I actually need the full internet access package $19.95 per month and had me type in internet2.voicestream.com under the edge page and everything is working fine. My question is that if I skip the $19.99 extra full internet access from T-mobile and just go with what Joe said (a few post above) and used the wap.voicestream.com under the edge page, would that work? It would be nice if I didn’t have to pay the extra $19.99 per month.

I currently have a sidekick. I’d like to switch to an iphone. I’m trying to sort this all out. It sounds like I’d have to switch out of my sidekick plan- keep my minutes plan- sign up for $5.95 edge plan and then sign up for some sort of texting plan as well? Then do this hack and all should work well with my iphone on T-mobile?

All you have to do is call tmobile with version 1.1.4 and tell them you need to get the data plan that supports the iphone problem solved..for youtube there is a download on installer and everything should work fine. it did for me..
