> a formal restore will fix any issue if i do mess it up

yes IF you are OK with being forced to update to a version of the iPhone Firmware that cannot be jailbroken

Also Yes, IF you have the skills and blobs to restore to an earlier version of the firmware, that IS jailbreakable

Im sure you know all this, just being pedantic

> i only mess with the Verizon iPhone 5, NOT the ATT one.

sorry, I should have said, the changes you make to be able to use Tmobile, disable your ability to use other networks
including ATT and Verizon, and Sprint, afaik.. maybe someone more informed will elaborate
anyway, if youre on Tmobile, it does not matter if your phone does not work on Verizon, or ATT or whatever, right?

Thanks for sharing the link. Seems you can now use an ATT iPhone or Verizon iPhone to access just part of the Tmobile network: (not sure why anyone would want a partial solution like that).

Also, nobody has posted this warning:
IF you modify your iPhone to work on Tmobile, it will no longer work on ATT..

Personally, I would wait for a more complete solution.

Here a couple of snips from the link krissakandra offered:

"it won’t make your AT&T device compatible with T-Mobile’s speedy 3G DC-HSDPA on the 1700MHz band nor will your Verizon iPhone be fooled into accepting T-Mobile’s LTE bands…"

"customers using a CDMA iPhone 5 (model A1429) from Verizon, Sprint and other regional CDMA carriers can use T-Mobile’s 21Mbps HSPA+ network, though not its DC-HSDPA or LTE networks."

Apple maps sucks, lacks bus routes, and the colors dont let you see side roads well, and you can barely see traffic.
Google maps is worthless because it cant see my contacts (thats plain dumb!, other apps can find my contacts, like Mapquest and Waze). I recommend against FW 6.x because you lose the original integrated google maps app.

> is their any real reason to update to the 6.1.2 and rejailbreak again?

not in my opinion, I dont use Microsoft Exchange Callendar
"Apple has released iOS 6.1.2 to fix a bug with Microsoft Exchange Calendar."

well... update
ATT is throttling me for the rest of the month. My usage updated from 2500 mb to 5100 mb of usage overnight. I did watch a couple netflix movies, but mostly I think ATT's data usage updates are not very up to date.
Anyway, Im throttled to a <.5 mbps data rate for the rest of the month. Back to using wifi.. oh well

I started Tethering with Att iPhone 5 using TetherMe when evasi0n first came out. I have used 2500 mb of data halfway through my month. I have grandfathered Unlimited Data, which allows 5mb before throttling.

So far Att has not sent me a tethering warning. I have tethered for at least 4 consecutive hours per day, for over a week, as a test whether to cancel my cable internet.

So far, it looks like for my usage, I could cancel my cable internet and use my cellular plan instead. For my area, my Cell data is similar in speed to my cable data.

I have been able to watch netflix on my apple tv, using my iPhone 5 as the WiFi connection, and I have been able to connect my MacBookPro to my iPhone 5 hotspot, and surf the web and watch netflix also. And one of my kids uses their iPhone 4 as a WiFi hotspot to connect to the internet with a Wifi only model, iPad Mini.

Loving TetherMe, thanks to evasi0n
