need help editing Edge Settings.plist for EDGE proxy port

[kdub3000]

I am trying to add the port number to edge setting, so I can add port 8080 to my APN on Tmobile now that I can use my network. This would enable http + email on Tmobile for $5.99/mo. (email is already working now)

Does anybody know how I can enable this cell in the plist?
(from Settings/General/Network/EDGE)

file can be found:
/System/Library/PreferenceBundles/EDGESetting.Bundle/EDGE Settings.plist

<dict>
<key>cell</key>
<string>PSEditTextCell</string>
<key>get</key>
<string>edgeProxyServerPort:</string>
<key>isNumeric</key>
<true/>
<key>label</key>
<string>Port</string>
<key>set</key>
<string>setEdgeProxyServerPort:specifier:</string>
</dict>

thanks!

p.s. I've tried editing several times and can get the Port to show up, but it crashes when I enter the value in the field. I admit, I am not plist expert

...how did u get to manage ur e-mail to work? can u share ur settings for me? i only entered wap.voicestream.com with no luck
..i'm really desperate in making this to work, hope some "master" can help us on this...

in Settings/General/Network/EDGE

APN wap.voicestream.com

this will give you email access through T-Mobile. I am trying to enable the PORT menu to add port 8080, which is the proxy for port 80 (for web access)

It is slow, but for $5.99/mo, it is great for when you need it.

How did you get it to show the port up?

kdub3000 How did you get the port to show up on the menu settings for EDGE?

....i just hope somecane can figure the $5.99 tzone to browse web

looks like that plist file is a binary??

[kdub3000]

Yes, it is a binary plist. If you're on a mac, you can convert it in terminal with:

plutil -convert xml1 FILENAMEGOESHERE.plist (converts to XML)
plutil -convert binary1 FILENAMEGOESHERE.plist (converts back to binary)

more info in the wiki, searching 'plist convert'
