I just got a new little update for my iPhone. Yay, thinks I, and so it is installed. What does it do? It bloody well hides my APN settings and sets them to O2. My iPhone is on Orange. Now my data doesn't work unless I use Data Roaming.
After digging around for a few moments, it became abundantly clear that the settings page for APN has completely disappeared. I can't actually change the settings on the device itself. This is a pain. Enter unlockit.co.nz, a very handy little website for doing exactly what I need.
So use it, go to http://www.unlockit.co.nz/ from Safari on your iPhone. Follow the on-screen prompts, enter the proper APN data, and voila, a little settings bundle appears. Install it, and you're good to go. It took just a few seconds to change it on mine, and after disabling Data Roaming, I still get access to the web. Marvellous.
Edit: It does do something else ... now the text that says Orange in the corner is slightly larger and a bit fuzzier. Well worth the hassle, eh?
