Let me see if I can break it down for you

1. Buy MTN sim card or use existing sim card.
2. Insert said card into iPhone.
3. Change or insert Network APN to "internet"
4. Next time check the iPhone tips & tricks thread. Did you honestly think this subject has been discussed before?

Sorry, but how do you change it to internet

Hi, as far as I know, you can buy the iPhone on Vodacom for R185 pm. Now if you want to use your MTN sim card, you can, but just remember then your warranty / guarantee will be voided, and if anything should go wrong with the phone, you wont be able to return it to get fixed.

When you get the phone it will be easy to figure out. This is a device made for users to easily figure out.

I bought my iPhone from Vodacom, stuck in my MTN simcard - plugged it into itunes at it was set up and has worked perfectly ever since.

Ok, but i have worked on someone elses iphone. Should i have to take the phone somewhere to get internet or could i do it on my own. If so can you please show me how with alot of detail.

The guys at MTN would have more detail on how to do it I think, anyway, lotsa ppl are moving over to Vodacom cause of MTN's crappy service.

You go there and make the APN internet.... and the internet will work... what more do u need to know ?

What do you mean? You put in the MTN sim card and that's about it. You can do this because our iPhones here in south africa are unlocked. If you get one from overseas, it's probably network locked, which means you have to unlock it.

 

[Malan]

Wow! Really. Is the internet gonna work too. Do you really have to change the apn. And if you do is there just an options that you can choose "internet".
