These are instructions on how to block and disable Edge and 3G data usage on your iPhone using the SBSettings Data toggle.
Anderson Vulczak and BigBoss constructed the toggle which sets a bogus IP address, (1.1.1.0) to your data adapter’s IP address. This seems to kill EDGE / 3G without any battery drain issues reported in using other methods such as entering a bad APN.
You may want to do this to ensure your iPhone does not rack up costly data usage chargers from your carrier.
