For some reason my internet service doesn't work on my x10 but every thing else works just fine. I tried calling tmobile technical support and the guy said he has not idea how to fix it, and refer me to post a threat at the tmobile forum Dose anyone know how I can set it up?
Thank you.
I am not quite sure what problem you have. My x10 works fine with T-mobile US A. Do you mean you do not get their 3G network??
I just let my phone do the automatic settings and it just worked. 3G and all.
I have the $19.99 T-Mobile Unlimited Internet Plan + T-Mobile Hotspots plan.
Which data plan are you running?
I can't use internet... I have to connect to Wifi if I need to use the internet.
I used to have this same sim card on my factory unlocked iphone 3gs and its fine. I don't know what the problem is? Can you tell me what's your network setting like?
Thank you

I am trying to configure my wizard (8125 lokiwiz unlocked) to work on my tmobile data plan.I don't have the unlimited internet and hotspot plan for tmobile, i have the unlimited WAP plan. I just can't figure out how to get it to work, the tmobile tech people didnt sound experienced with the wizard but they said its possible. Do any of you know teh correct settings and how to enter them. I was able to work it out on WM2003 but WM5 is really confusing. Perhaps someone with an MDA and the similar plan could let me know what theirs is configured for.

I saw the issue of tmobile's WAP discussed I believe on howardforums.com . At least from what I remembered from the discussion was that tmobile was to be fading out its WAP service which also had unintended consequences for people using tmobile's blackberry sevices. I did however download the tmobile cab files from club-imate which placed a wap configuration for tmobile in My Work Network configurations setup. Good luck.
Bro, its simple, go to settings, connections, connections, then add a new modem connection, Then put in where it says "enter a name for the connection" T-Mobile GPRS Wap" or what ever your want. Then below select GPRS where it says select a modem. click on next after that and enter in wap.voicestream.com then click on next and then finish. You do not need to put anything else in. Thats it your are done. I have five PPC from the XDA on up and no problems on any.
Cheers,
Mike
thanks mike, hmm now the phone just says locating... if i try to load a wap site like wap.yahoo.com for instance. I am connected to the GPRS connection, its just not loading up sites.
hey eb, was that cab from an original tmobile rom, or was it part of the euro tmobile roms that was just released. I have been looking for a copy of the tmobile rom from back in nov.

The tmobile cab I got from clubimate is for the US, and as far as I can tell it is not the euro tmobile settings. I also tried the wap connect and got dumped into my GPRS connection to. The steps Mike described is how it looks in my network connections. I remember back when tmobile was voicestream and using my laptop via cellphone to connect, one had to start at voicestream's wap home page. Just a suggestion.
try a differnt AP like internet2.voicestream.com
some people have had success using that....I myself discourge this, however, it works it works...
internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com will only work if you have a tmobile unlimited internet account which is 19.99 a month not a wap account. What services are on your account?
mike you're right....i thought he had the 19.99 unlim internet plan...i think he needs a t-mo proxy for it to work....i'll google this and post back later...
okay here's what i found....i think the proxy thing is the what might be relevant..
http://www.mobilegadgetnews.com/lofiversion/index.php?t9404.html
That is correct, for the wap, and mms the proxy has to be put in. I am soooo lazy. I reflash my Universal so much, I got tired of putting the mms setting back in. LOL
Mike
hmm so after messing around with more settings, still nothing works. Perhaps its because im trying to connect to restricted WAP sites. anyone know the tzones website/homepage? Or perhaps someone that actually has the correct settings for $9.99 tzones on a WIzard can help me with the settings.

I was told they no longer had the 19.99 plan, that it is only the 29.99 plan. What's the trick to still getting the 19.99 plan?
Dawm that includes hotspots now. I was paying 19.99 for gprs and 19.99 for hotspot service. Heh. I guess they don't have 19.99 gprs internet only now. Sucks. But thanks, I am going to call and save 10.00 a month. hehe
Mike
They are getting rid of the back door to using the WAP as online access for the PDA's. They are going to go to the full data. You will have to have the 29.99 Total Internet Plan which is unlimited data and email and hotspot. There were a lot of people paying the lower amounts and trying to use it on the PDA and it was causing issues and the data group had to try and solve them and there were things that just couldn't be solved becuase the provisiong of the WAP is different then the internet2.voicestream.com. Just pay the 30 bucks and get it all.

If the SIM works for phone calls it should work for data. Provided of course you actually have a data plan with t-mobile and the correct settings in your connection settings.
I had the t-mobile sidekick unlimited plan.... and i called trying to see what was wrong and they said the sidekick plan only worked on a sidekick.... So for it to work on the 8125 i would have to get unlimited internet whice for 29.99... and i was paying 20.0 a month for unlimited internet email aim so what should i do unlimtied text itself is 14.99

I guess it depends what you want to use it for - True internet which means the 29.99 plan, some people have had some joy with the blackberry plan though I have recently had to change because T-Mobile appears to be cutting people off using that on the MDA/8125. If you pick the internet plan then you can use a messaging program which uses GPRS to send messages rather than the crappy text messaging (sms) product that comes with the MDA/8125.

Can any confirm or deny if T-mo is cutting users with the BB plan off or making them switch to the $30/month plan? Also, has anyone tried using the $5.99 "T-mobile Web" data plan with their MDA/8125? Does it function just like a normal GPRS connection or does the portal limit ports (i.e. AIM ports for chatting). Thanks.
i just found out that t-mobile has a new 9.99 data plan for the internet...i was thinkin about getting this rather than the 24.99 plan for the t-mobile wing internet...does anybody know te proxy settings that would allow me to use the 9.99 plan on my wing to use internet explorer?
and if not can someone tell me the proxy settings for the 5.99 t-zones plan?
thank u
The $9.99 plan isn't for smartphones. I went to tmobile.com and selected a standard phone with a basic plan (just to see available services) and then switched the phone at check out and selected a Dash... The $9.99 plan isn't offered with the Dash. So I suppose you could pop your sim in a standard headset and order the $9.99 plan and switch it out to see if it works. Just to warn you, even if it does work, it's only 50mb. Tmo says it's for casual web browsing. You could burn through that pretty quickly if you use your phone to watch videos or stream podcast.
that will not work. i had the 9.99 plan for my motorola and switched to wing and had to upgrade to 24.99. its not the same kind of data plan.
oh okay i was jus wondering
I met an ex Tmo employee that said in some states those proxy hacks work, but where I am in Michigan they won't. Why the hell that is... I don't know? I was never able to get the $4.99 proxy hack working when I got my wing.

how much data can you use before they get mad at you?
tzones hack
well there are some steps missing i have had the 4.99 since the dinosaurs have roomed the earth and i have had no issues. ok heres the hack
apn= wap.myvoicestream.com
proxy 216.155.165.50 port 8080 (or 216.155.165.50:8080)
or if yer brave
apn= epc.tmobile.com
then check "this network connects to the internet"
no proxie. the second one allows for streaming while the other one does not. and the second one is quicker then the first happy hackin ^_^

I have the T-Mobile Total Internet Add-On on my plan, and edge is working fine on my unlocked E61i .. but I've put the SIM in a loaner Touch Pro 2.
Calls work fine, actually I even have the gmail application working fine, as well as active sync with google for contacts and calendar.
Opera and IE both give me Gateway Timeouts.
I have a comm connection set up for Cellular Line (GPRS,3G) to internet2.voicestream.com with all auth info blank.
It looks like it's trying to communicate over EDGE then dies. I've tried setting it up multiple times and rebooting the phone. No dice.
Well, that's strange.. I suppose this phone's Opera and IE have some strange modification..
I loaded SkyFire onto it and it's working fine.. nevermind I suppose..
anyone have any idea if this is going to work, bc my only other windows phone was the dash and i used to use the old school Tzones for $2.99 on that.
On the same boat bro, I am currently paying $15 a month for unlimited data on Sprint and I DONT want a $30 bloated data plan, does Web2Go work on smartphones if you buy retail $450.00 ????
Probably not, T-Mobile does IMEI checks now to see if you're provisioned correctly. While you may use them on other windows Mobile phones, the HD2 is considered a special device and will require the regular data package like Android.

I'll second that answer, but more definitively than 'probably.' Full smartphone data plan required.
Web2Go will work. You have to change the apn in the data settings from epc.tmobile.com to internet2.voicestream.com. I've had several iPhones, Touch Pro 2, and now T-Mobile USA HD2 (got mine last week from Wal-Mart w/no commitment) and I have NEVER had a problem. T-Mobile doesn't perform any provisioning checks or scans that's BS! I've had service since '99 (Powertel=>Voicestream=>T-Mobile)!

Do you have the phone set up as the HD2 on the T-mobile website under your account or as another phone?
That's odd because i use to use my HD with one of the cheap plans (since they didn't have the IMEI numbers for the HD initially). However, after a couple months, I could no longer use the phone unless it had the unlimited smartphone plan (and everyone else reported the same thing on the Blackstone forum). As far as I know, Tmobile does check IMEI and it will detect that HD2 is a smartphone will not let you connect unless you have the proper plan.
Thanks for the heads up k2trill, imma buy an HD2 retail and set up Web2Go. Ill let you guys know how it goes, expect a response in a week.
set it up as "my phone is not listed" option.
I am asuming as much as we read these forums Tmobile will too so there you go - from time to time they will create some sort of firewall (by changing the options and settings) to force us into Web2Go... I want to see how this goes as I will not purchase HD2 to subscribe on additional $30 ripoff... Web2Go I can live with...

In theory of Web2Go works on your phone... yes - it will get EDGE quality and not 3G but it should work with everything (weather, facebook, etc)

before i flashed down, i got 400 kbps...
i just put my sim card in, and was able to connect...
i didn't change any settings at all...
i flashed, put the 2.10.50 radio on there to flash and got crappy speeds...
i tried different radios but no luck... somebody got any ideas?
cuz 64 kbps is hurting my soul....

thanks i've searched online and didnt really find anything helpful
if you get the focus unlocked, it will work on tmobile, but you wont get the 3G speeds. Only EDGE, since the focus does not have the required HSPA frequencys used by tmobile.
thanks a lot, thats all i needed to know, Disappointed tho
Reviving this thread. So I have a Samsung Focus unlocked on Tmobile and I cannot get data to work. Any ideas on what could help? i have already added my apn of internet2.voicestream.com
Have you tried epc.tmobile.com
yes I have with no luck but thanks
in the usa depending where you are they either use epc.tmobile.com or wap.voicestream.com might try the network profile app too... i know samsung has addressed this issue and is in the process of fixing it to where when the unit is unlocked the settings from any gsm carrier will work... there is also a homebrew app somewhere that has worked with mixed results too...
ive tried those apns as well. thanks. and i tried the network profile app too any idea where i can get these homebrew apps?
probably in this forum or the wp dev forum here.....

ATT Samsung Focus on Tmobile
To anyoe else thinking about getting a Focus to use on Tmobile USA network....
I can confirm everything is working and this is how I got it to work.
Everything works except obviously 3G because att and tmobile use different frequencies for 3G (until the merger at least) 2G works great though.
First thing you need to do is either get an unlock code from ATT (unlikey) or go to FastGSM.com and for 19.00 you can get your phone sim unlocked, so that your tmobile sim will work.
Now your phone works and my data was working out of the box as well.
However, you will not be able to send or recieve MMS messages.
To fix this, go to the market and clck on Samsung Apps, then install their Network Configuation app. Open the app and change network from ATT to Tmobile USA and now MMS will work perfectly.
Hope this info helps someone else.

WOWWWW I was searching to see if an unlocked ATT Focus with be able to MMS on T-Mobile US network. Thanks for the information.
I have a Focus and called ATT for unlock code. They said the unlock code will be provided after May 8th. So waiting for a month before I can use it on T-Mobile US.
My only concern was whether I would be able to send and receive picture messages. I hope your solution works next month!!
