Hi DC,

Your suggestion to reset the network settings worked for me. The internet tethering option was not there with my new iphone.

Thanks!

John: I don’t have any problems with connecting to WIFI. I do heard of some cases where the tethering options went missing though.

Maybe you might want to send it for repair.

Hi dk,

Were u still able to use your wifi after enabling tethering on the iphone?

My wifi died – it can detect but not connect. My ipod touch running beside it can connect without issue.

Looking forward to 3.1!

On July 11th bought two iPhones 3Gs and found one of them strangely didn’t display the tiny circle indicator at the top next to SINGTEL. When I enabled 3G, it didn’t show either. Only the usual fan-like indicator is there when I enabled wifi. I got to know via 1626 that although I am on iflexivalue plan, the GPRS service was not turned on for that mobile line. Life then onwards with that iPhone became better. The other iPhone however behaved strangely. Intermittently, My friends couldn’t hear me when I speak to them during a call. I went to Com Centre and was told I have software corruption. The only solution was to restore the iPhone to factory default but not to restore any backup data. Fearing that I would lost all my SMS I ignored those irritating people at counters 25 to 27 and life has also become better with this iPhone ever since. Yes, DK, thanks for highlighting my previous iPhone problems were due to compatibilities issues of Apps. Group MMS sending issue was all resolved in an update from Apple. Lastly, is there really software corruption for iPhone? Are those ST counter people trying to buy time and avoid replacing a faulty iPhone?

duncanchung: Was there such an issue with 3.0 firmware? Didn’t know that.

But I heard a new firmware is coming soon.

I posted the “solution” to my missing Internet tethering problem on June 24th. After getting it to work, I only found out that my MMS setting was totally erased by the “installation”. I keyed them back in manually. A few minutes ago, I tried to use “Internet tethering”, the option just vanished again when I turned it on.

Seems like I have to live with it for a while. The thing that I am so envious of my wife is her iphone 3G 16Gb is totally new as of from 20 June and with 3.0 update on the same night, she has no problem with Channel News Asia and OCBC apps or Internet tethering i.e. all the things I am encountering problems with.
