My Nexus One is being delivered tomorrow and I have a sim only contract with t-mobile to use with it.
Anyone know what settings (apn etc) are needed to make calls/texts/mms and internet, please?
Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Itll do it all automatically mine did been running sweet for a 2 months
Just out of curiosity what settings do people have under apn?
Using the speed test app, I can only get 300kbps down and 500 up for some reason.
Cheers,
Neil.
Yeah, did it automatically in the end, apart from mms. Sending an mms to myself fixed that.
Not tested my speeds yet as I mainly only browse using wifi.
I am getting 2M+ downlink and 1.7M+ uplink. I have web n walk plus (or what used to be) and I understand you will need that to have HSDPA speeds.
Any chance you could post your apn settings as I have the web and walk add on and don't get anywhere near those speeds in two different parts of the country.

Im on 3 and mine didnt set up automatically, but after using CMs ROM it came on auto after that
I need help setting up my unlock HD2 for AT&T use.
I cannot access web and get MMS because all my settings are for T-mobile (default). Where can i get the settings for it or .cab file to cahnge it over to work with AT&T?
Is anyone in the same boat as me?
Previous phone = Iphone 3GS
bought HTC HD2
Unlocked it (Remote code)
inserted official AT&T 3G sim card
phone is working but without data connection/MMS
Here is what you need. Just apply the cab and reboot.
Hope it helps, worked perfectly for me.
Never mind my sig. I need to update it.

if someone could give a bit of help with this that would be incredible. I haven't been able to get it to work either.
thank you
if you plan on switching roms, the newer ones usually have the function built in to configure them according to what carrier you are on. I found that either Kumar's or NRG's roms work pretty well as I'm currently using Kumar's Lite WWE rom

Copy the cab file to your phone and then use file explorer to go to it and double click on it and run. I will agree with the post above, 99% of custom roms come with a connection setup that lets you choose ATT and it downloads the settings for you. Plus helps out the OS lol
I got the file installed but still no luck, any other ideas??
Media Net
I have installed the media net but it still doesn't work.
I did the same thing and the people at at&t told me that it want allow you to have data connetion through them. They were wrong. Call 1-866-449-8358, they will hook you up with the settings. You want have to download anything. Once you have a data connection it will show that you are connected to edge. But, it is 3g.
I got this figured out. go to settings/Wireless Control/Data Connection/Advance(tab on the bottom)/Selectnetworks/ and then change the both drop down bars to Media Net.
Don't forget to turn the Data Connection "on" in the wireless controls.
It worked just fine on my HD2
I used the cab file on the first page, installed and restarted. Mobile internet works fine, but I still can't receive MMS. The pics are the right size so I am lost as to where to go next. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanx.

Can you make sure these are the settings in your mms server info
Name AT&T MMS
Server Name....AT&T MMS
Ip Address....wireless.cingular.com
Port number...80
Server Address....http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect Via....Media Net
Message Size limit....600 (this is the max ATT will allow)
Wap Version....Wap 2.0
Thanks guys for all your help. Got it figured out. The problem was that I couldn't find where the heck to get to mms settings in the first place. Taken care of.

How can you be sure that HD2 will run on ATT 3g? alot of people are saying it probably won't have 3g, but you get an EDGE network... i really need to know this because i might switch to att from tmobile.
I am in between iPhone's (3GS-iPhone 4), but I have an HTC HD2 T-Mobile USA version as a secondary phone. I returned my 3GS (which I just recently upgraded to after losing my 3G iPhone) so I could be eligible for the upgrade price on the iPhone 4 and I only have the HD2 right now (love the phone by the way). Anyway....
Quick question: I tried applying MEdia Net/MMS Settings both manually and with the cab file, but I cannot seem to get data working on my HD2. My AT&T account is not on Media Net it is on the iPhone data plan, so could that be the reason why I cannot get data to work on my HD2?
I tried figuring out the problem on my own but I'm obviously not getting it done...thx for the help.
p.s. The HD2 is running on stock software. I have not applied any roms or hacks to it.
OS: 5.2.21892
ROM: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Sense: 2.5.20121412

Funny, I'm in the same situation! I sold my iPhone yesterday in prep for the iPhone 4 and got the HTC HD2 from T-Mobile to use for a couple of weeks (also got it unlocked by them the next day!).
After installing the .cab file, reboot your phone then go and change your data settings in the HD2. I'm on the iPhone data plan with AT&T as well and everything thing seems to be working fine.

The T-Mobile HD2 will not work on AT&T's 3G bands, period...only edge. You'll have to get the Australian (Telstra) model to be able to use AT&T 3G.
Choosing baseband
Interesting because in Phone Settings there is the option of choosing your baseband between AT&T's or T-Mobile's or to put it on Auto. I just chose Auto to be safe as I'm using an AT&T sim.
On hold with HTC Support so I'll shortly know definitely.
Thanks

wifi calling apk on the link below:
http://www.4shared.com/get/PCd_a-oA/WiFiCalling.html
real or fake? someone tested?
doesnt work... says invalid SIM.
tried with vodafone and tmobile sim but both no success
Works for me, downloaded to sdcard, installed via ASTRO, no problem

the app works.. but the calling not.. says invalid sim at the app. so cant do anything.
can you call via wifi?
but wth do you want to call via wifi?
it costs money too. and extra connection.
why will you use wifi when you can call 24/7 with your sim all day ?

i just called my house using it, im assuming it called using wifi because it skipped over "Call With Google Voice?" pop up that i set it to do everytime i call. I dont even use all my minutes so i probably wont be all over this app but atleast i have it

wifi calling costs many though?
i read on that app it just costs as much as cellulair data.
so why in earth will people use wifi calling? they can just call without wifi. its called a PLAN
I get invalid sim as well I am on vodafone and not |T-Mobile..
Maybe you could change it to work on Vodafone?
i have tmobile, maybe thats why? might have to do with the APN or something
yay this is good but the thing I see is that if you are calling it may be going to the t-mobile servers ofc if thats the case only t-mobile sims may be able to get unless we edit the apk or spoof our sim but then also im guessing the wifi calling costs so not sure how this would work xD nice though
totally non sense. how can someone call using wifi or whatever internet source you may have to any cellular or telephone number untill you don't have some service provider etc... if this wifi calling is working over the internet, what application is it using?
seems totally fake or irrelavent
This apps works because i put the phone in airplain mode and use wifi only.
If you guys having problem then maybe it your phone. But, my phone is working, be glad that you have wifi calling.
This an oct 22,2008 phone not even the iphone 3g has this feature.
I have t-mobile usa provider phone.

i find this hard to believe since when i put mine into airplane mode to test it it said "wifi calling not available in airplane mode". Ive been trying to edit the .apk and see if i can get rid of that but no luck so far, so how are u doing it?
My bad it doesnt do wifi calling on airplane mode my bad. It does wifi calling on wifi though..

quite right, you think we can get a workaround?
I dont know im going to buy a new phone because i miss adobe flash content so much. I know this is out of topic but i miss my original droid before it got messed up.
G1 is nice when it was a backup phone in 2010. My main phone in 2008/2009 most of the time, until i sold my cliq. But, now i just want a phone with higher specs.
I try playing gameloft games HD/3D games that isnt working because of processor we have.
This developer now a days is coding their apps to make it work with 3.5 inches and beyond, with higher frame,Power vr ship specs.
I love my g1, but im going to buy either g2 or hd 7.
I think i speak for everyone having an phone for to long loses it power in long run.
And, wifi calling on this app only work with T-mobile sim card and wifi of course.
There is a wifi app.
it was ripped off the G2 and ported to the vibrant, so it is possible.
however its not that good.
it was taken out of most roms on the vibrant because of its buggyness/uslessness.
it drains battery pretty bad even when not running.
it uses minutes even when calling through wifi (the only purpose of the app is to get clear signal in places where there is none for tmobile customers and not to save on minutes)
Its just kinda buggy overall.
hopefully they'll release a cleaner app in the future, but for now its pointless if you get decent signal at home.
Honestly, this apps work fine to me. Im just disappointed that the developer now a days isnt supporting older device by coding the apps to higher specs phone.
Wanted to get an android phone with wifi calling capability for a friend who is currently in Iraq. My budget will not allow me to a buy a g2/mt4g, and a g1 seems like the cheapest option so this is where I began looking. So if I added an extra line on my family plan, grabbed a g1, rooted and installed this app would my friend be able to make calls as long as he has a wifi connection? Can anyone confirm this works without any access to the tmobile network?

I'm not sure about on the g1, but on other phones it works, but it still uses t-mobile minutes.
so you can be away from the t-mobile network, but you still need to have a t-mobile plan and minutes.
its basicaly for those who have horrible signal at home, but do have a wifi connection.
OK, so here's my story.
1.) Bought an Atrix from ebay and had it sent to me in Sweden
2.) Unlocked the Atrix with a code from cellunlock.net
Now my problem is that the 3g does not work . In the menu on the top of the phone I can see "Sweden 3g" in the left hand corner, to the right i can see "H+".
Supposedly the Atrix supports the same 3G frequencys as the ones being used in Sweden. But could it be that my SIM card is old or that my carrier in specific does not use the same frequency as the Atrix or is there some setting that I've missed?
What can I do??? Should I loose all hope and throw the Atrix in front of a train and move on?
I would be really grateful for any help I can get on this.
Kind regards//Joel

You probably do not have your APNs configured correctly. Read up on how to set those up manually on an Android phone with your carrier (just google it).
Note that with this phone, you should probably set your APN as "default,mms" under type.
Maybe this will help,
There are many apn settings, hopefully this will help
http://www.androidonhtc.com/wiki/Carrier_network_settings
When I had my captivate in Thailand, I was able to add a apn and was able to use the data network there, there are worldwide settings there.
I love you guys , it works perfectly now. I found the info on wikipedia for my carrier . Many thnxes for all you guys at xda!!!
wow u scarme man...lol after read your first post i'm scare because I bought today from at&a to portugal lol
It was a real easy fix , I just entered "settings - Wireless & networks - Mobile networks - Access point names", then I added a "New APN". The only info I had to insert was the "Name" (which is "Tele 2 Internet" for my carrier) and "APN" (which was "internet.tele2.se" for me). After that my 3g worked like a charm
data conxn, stable?
hi GandalfGraw.... good to see ur problem resolved... if u have used 3g for long periods, does it drop signal or lose data conxn... can u tell us if the conxn is steady with no disconnections....
also how is the battery holding up?!
thanks!
Gents,
Unfortunately in Japan Atrix is NOT adapted into most of carrier, Softbank / B-mobile and a part of data plans of NTT Docomo.
Now only data plan which is able to work, is only mopera plan (128Kbps) and standard mopera plan. repeatedly I have been trying to set correct APN on Atrix but the result was all failed.
The key thing is, all carrier can be worked as calling & SMS (text) but cannot be worked as data connection, including Internet connection and MMS. Actually when inserted NTT Domoco SIM card, we can see carrier name at upper left of screen (in taskbar), but other SIM card inserted, no carrier name at same area.
Someone has same problem in the world?
Thanks.

Hur funkar ditt WIFI? Många snackar ju om att det lägger ner när man låser upp den. Har du haft några problem? Testat den mot WEP och andra säkerhetsnät?

Hi. I tried searching the forum and didn't see anything. Has anyone traveled with their phone out of the US? Does it work internationally? Can I just use the wifi setting and still use my phone while traveling?
Thanks!

With wifi, google voice, sipdroid, and goggle voice callback... There is a forum post explaining how to set it up.. Basically turns your phone into a wifi phone... Not sure if you will be charged for goggle voice outside america using the setup though.

apart from the voip/wifi option outlined earlier, vzw apparently has international cdma roaming agreements for voice in over 40 countries... Mostly americas, asia and pac rim but not in europe. I've used a vzw phone in mexico from time to time, but cdma networks are still relatively rare outside the usa (but there's more out there than I thought).

My fascinate went to montreal with me last year and worked fine. Had to get my data plan switched to an international one (i think it was about $65 instead of 30), but the rep I talked to said there was nothing they could do for voice or text. So, I had to pay per minute and text while I was there. Luckily it was travel for work, so they covered the extra expense while I was there
Google voice was still free in canada (it should still be I think?), so I used my laptop a lot to make calls in the evenings.

I don't have enough posts to enable links, but here is Verizon's website that shows CDMA roaming rates for voice and text:
b2b.vzw.com/international/Roaming/rates_coverage.html
Copy and paste the link directly into your address bar. Do not add www to the beginning.
Here is the link for roaming data rates:

thanks all. I didn't want to pay for the international plan since I'm only gone for 2.5 weeks. I'm hoping to use google voice over wifi and whatever else I can get working. I'm not sure how skype works over wifi, but I'm under the assumption that as long as I'm on wifi and not over the network, it shouldn't cost me anything, correct?

A similar question was asked on the Skype forums, and here was the answer supplied by one of the staff:
Your fascinate is using Skype Mobile for Verizon and your iPhone is using Skype for iOS. Skype Mobile uses cell minutes to connect calls and can not be used to place calls to US landlines or cell phones as this will be charged by verizon.
If you fascinate has Android 2.2 you could put Skype for Android on this and it would work almost the same way as the iPhone except it cant use 3G
