Configuring:

After receiving your unlock from your carrier in iTunes:

1. Insert your 3 SIM and restore the iPhone in iTunes if your phone still can't make calls

2. Put the APN in: 3services (Settings -> General -> Cellular Network Data) - no username or password

3. Set the voicemail button to work: *5005*86*333# then press call

4. Bookmark your Three Call and Usage Tracker in Safari
http://three.net.au/hss/getmyaccount.do

5. If you need one, add smtp.three.net.au as an additional outgoing mail server. It is 20c per message on some plans, so you may prefer to use another.

6. If you want a "visual voicemail" style thing: Set up your Three voicemail in mail (link).


You're done



The plans:

If you'd like $300 credit and free 2GB of data, you can change to a Three iPhone plan (1GB on $49 cap).
You will have to pay off your existing handset instalments if any, but the $300 should be enough to cover that. You will need to be over half way through your contract too.

Easy hey

Quick, close the thread and make it sticky, so it doesn't become another long drawn-out, endlessly repeating questions thread!

Ok one question? I haven't got my iphone yet but like you want to buy from Tlife & unlock for three. When I first get it after bought outright do I plug it in with itunes and do anything even though there wont be a sim with as I assume? Do i need to do anything so it ready to be unlocked after the 72 hour odd time frame?

what username and password do you input under this? i feel like this is the stupidest question ever but im unaware of any username and password i have from three.....

disregard i found elsewhere, thanks!!

I dont think its a stupid question cause I have no idea what my username and password are... where did you find the answer Luke?

You don't enter a username or password! Read the instructions

Ha, Im a doofis! Ive just had a baby so Ill put it down to baby brain.

Okay, here's a question...I don't have Settings -> General -> Cellular Network Data on my 3G...is that normal? I was looking for the APN settings the other day and couldn't find them anywhere...

I'm guessing that's cos my phone is still locked.

If your phone is unlocked you will see Settings/ General/ Network (its above bluetooth)/ cellular data network

If your phone is not unlocked (or it maybe unlocked but you have restored it via Itunes) you wont find it.

Hey guys and Girls
I can receive emails (using 3) no problems, but it is not allowing me to send? I believe I have tried everything with no joy, anyone out there found/fixed this problem?

Cheers

Check to make sure your sending server address is correct and your reply email address is correct.

Hi Guys do you reckon 3 prepaid would work on it. Like will the internet work??

If your phone is unlocked and you whack another sim in that is, AFAIK

I've been digging around my JB'd 2.0 and found that the carrier settings for australia Block the cellular data settings for Telstra Optus and Vodafone sims - whacking a Three sim in an unlocked iPhone will allow you to edit the details.
