A lot of 3 customers have asked us where are the APN settings to enable access to Planet 3 on the iPhone 3G.

Well, there is a lot of confusion over this matter, because different networks have ‘removed/hidden’ it on 2.0 software. Basically, on most networks, it’s not needed, due to the fact that the APN data is stored on the SIM itself, which allows for fast SIM swapping on unlocked iPhone 3G’s. However, 3 is a different story. The APN data enables personalised access to your account through Planet 3 directly from your handset.

From our research it would seem that some purchased iPhone 3G’s WILL enable you to edit your APN settings and others WONT. Vodafone AU and NZ appear to have locked that feature out, whereas Telstra allows you to edit your APN even when it’s not unlocked from the Telstra network.

So, for now, see if it’s possible to edit the APN settings on the iPhone 3G in the following way:

Settings -> General -> Network -> Cellular Data Network -> APN

If you can, then you will be able to edit the APN after you’ve unlocked your iPhone 3G. If you’ve already bought an iPhone 3G and can’t edit your APN settings, then you need to visit this website and unlock it manually.
