What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Reboot  or power off iPhone

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expect to See Edge Settings previously manually entered over default Cingular 
Settings to enable 
data over the vodafone UK netowork i.e. APN internet, user web, password web

Instead see no settings at all, not even the original Cingular Settings.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

iNdependence 1.2.2 and Springboard Patcher with Week 25 iPhone upgraded to 
1.1.1, SIM 
unlocked with IPSF 1.5 (and 1.6),  Laptop MacBook Pro running OS 10.4.10 and

The iPhone will allow new edge settings once it has lost them, and works well 
over GPRS / Edge, but loses them 
again on reboot.

I can confirm this, APN settings in EDGE settings disappear after a reboot.

Activated jail broken w/ Independence 1.2.3 
IPSF unlocked 
iPhone firmware: 1.1.1

I also confirm, EDGE settings are gone after reboot.
I tried to update to 1.1.1 with iNdependence 1.2.2 and 1.2.3 but same issue 
with the 
two versions.

I need help in setting edge, I don't understand entering them in 
preferences.plist.
I checked this in Library and could not see this com.apple.carrier.plist.
Can someone help me step by step in setting edge?

/var/root/Library/Preferences/com.apple.carrier.plist file

/var/root/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist

Modify the following fields to update your APN:

<dict>
<key>apn</key>
<string></string>
<key>password</key>
<string></string>
<key>username</key>
<string></string>
</dict>

So for Vodafone UK pay monthly it would be:

<dict>
<key>apn</key>
<string>internet</string>
<key>password</key>
<string>web</string>
<key>username</key>
<string>web</string>
</dict>

Do this twice in each file!

Put your iphone on the wireless network and take a note of its IP address. They 
launch Cyberduck  
(http://cyberduck.ch/) and log on to the iphone. You will see the root 
directory and you can just follow the trees 
down to the subdirectories you want.  You can edit the plist files with 
TextWrangler 
(http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/).  If you feel brave you can 
open them on the iPhone, edit 
and save, but download backup copies to your Mac first, just incase you want to 
revert to their original state.

This isn't a bug in iNd, it's a bug in 1.1.1.

It might actually be a "feature" of 1.1.1 for all I know.  The posted 
workaround does the trick, as does 
supplying your own carrier definition.
