EDGE Disabler
This is for users whose carriers give them an IP that push will not work on. They typically give you an IP
that is only useful to reach a data subscription page. An example is T-Mobile US Prepaid.
This package forces EDGE to be disabled and then push will finally work over WiFi. This is only a last resort as some carriers
IP can be disabled using http://iphonenodata.com/site/. You can tell if your carrier is
still giving you an IP by dialing this string on the phone *3001#12345#* and pressing Call. Next, tap PDP Context List and then
0. If you do not have the '0' listed, or the IP Address shown on the '0' page is 0.0.0.0 then you don't need this package.

YouTube Fixes
These are free fixes for anyone to use who does not have a working YouTube key. Unlike
other fixes, these will *not* touch your push key. There are three of them because each YouTube
key only seems to work in different areas of the world, but it is more comlicated than that.





How to disable edge/GPRAS and 3 G on iPhone

Works on all iPhone firmwares up to 3.0 and most cellular carriers*
* Personally tested on my iPhone 2G/3G 3.1.2 on Rogers *

If you have an iPhone but didn’t get a data plan be in for a shock after you see your bill. When out of range of a Wi-Fi access point, the iPhone will automatically connect via EDGE/3G periodically incurring expensive charges. Usually 5 cents per kilobyte, 1MB is $50!
Here is how you disable it.
1. Launch Safari on your iPhone
2. Go to iphonenodata.com
3. Tap the “Disable EDGE/3G” button
4. Tap “Install”
5. Tap “Install Now” to confirm

That’s it!
Go to “Settings – General – Usage” to check if you’re using anymore data. The counter shouldn’t go up from on.  As you can see, my phone never ever used any data.

If you try to browse a web page, this is what you see.  Data is blocked
