Just bumping to see if you have made a new .ipcc file in response to the March 2010 carrier update.

Any news??

I should have added that you are helping out a lot of people in doing that aphase.
I know I really appreciate it, and I should have said that in the bump.

Thank you.

I'm going to try and follow the directions in the link you provided on the first page of this thread, in order to do this on my own. But, in case of probable failure, I have a fall back.

No problem Wink

. Actually, I wasn't quick to have my friend put up the file because I wasn't sure if anyone actually used it, but now I know at least one person does haha.

Anyways the new links is here:

The old instructions are also linked on that page

I just found this thread and I have Mobile Me. I followed the instructions and it works! This is great. Thank you.

Well I'm not sure how many people use the "findMyIphone" feature of mobileME, but I updated the carrier file to work with iOS4.

The thing is tho that it now requires a jailbroken phone. The reason for this is that any carrier update installed directly on the phone through FTP, or over the air takes precedence over carrier files installed through iTunes. If you install through iTunes the iphone will keep bugging you about once a week, or everytime you plug it in to your computer that a new carrier file is available.

So anyways installing through cydia is now the better method, as it will make the phone think you installed it over the air.

Here are the current steps:

1. To install the carrier update go into Cydia on your jailbroken phone
2. Go to the section labeled "Carrier Bundles".
3. select the KTF Korea Carrier Bundle (by aphase).
4. Install, and it should work

I haven't tested it out with MobileMe yet, because I ironically don't have a MobileMe account yet, but since I made the carrier file exactly the same way I made the previous ones, it should work.

For anyone who installs it through Cydia, please confirm that it worked for you in this thread.

Also, for un-jailbroken phones, the previous carrier update I listed in the past will still work, but itunes or your phone might bug you once inawhile that a new carrier bundle is available (even tho its pretty much the same). Just ignore the message and it'll work.

I used the very first hack on an UNjailbroken 3GS, and it didn't work.
Now, on a jailbroken 3GS. No go.

Apple lists SouthKorea as an unsupported country for this service. Doesn't that mean that the dedicated infrastructure has been disabled?

Yes, i know. I've always had MobileMe. And I followed the instructions to the letter.

What I meant earlier, when I said it was 'working', was that the function seemed enabled on the phone itself.

However, later, when I logged into MobileMe, and selected the "Find My iPhone" function, it wouldn't load. It just cycled back to the home page. Perhaps it's different now, but the second hack didn't work on a jailbroken phone with Cydia.

I'd love to try it out again now this third time, as you described, but guess what... my phone was stolen a month ago. Talk about irony.

I want to give this thread a bump for all the new iPhone users. I tried the update through Cydia to enable "Find my iPhone" and it works great. Cheers aphase

Can anyone confirm this hack works with MobileMe purchased IN KOREA?

I installed it through Cydia, and i have everything turned on as applicable. Not only does it not show up in my iPhone's settings, but the MobileMe webpage says the service is unavailable in Korea.

Mobileme is now free on iphone 4 if you have 4.2 installed. I just set it up. I used this carrier file to reenable the feature but it only half works. It's on. The mobileme site reports the phone, but it can't seem to locate it.

I can send a remote message and interact with it, but the location shows up as "cannot be found" perhaps another update is needed?
I notice while it's trying to locate it, that little pink arrow that normally shows up when location services are being used isn't present.

I should note if I restart my phone, the option to "find my phone" on the mobile me section disappears.
I have to re-add the carrier file via itunes. However, the phone still shows up as available. So even though the option is disabled in the KT carrier file, it seems if it is set already, it won't change. They aren't disabling it, just removing the ability to set it.

In an unrelated note Jihachul crashes non-stop on 4.2
