Tmoible 5.99 internet

Hey guys, I've been trying to set up the internet on my Hermes. Ive found settings on other websites, but so far none have worked. If anyone can post the settings that they have personnaly tried and know are working it would be geratly appreciated. I am in New Jersey if that makes any diffrence. Thanks so much

anyone have any ideas? 85 views, someone must know something. Please?

theres a cab file called internet connection setup that should do the trick, search the forum

Being temporarily in the US (In Virginia, but it makes no difference, as settings are identical for whole tmobile network) I use FlexPay offer with unlimited Internet and it works out-of-the box with Schaps built-in Network Wizard. (Of course it is silly, that tmobile has no 3G coverage at all, even in DC and NY)
My settings are APN: wap.voicestream.com, user name and password empty, no proxy.
However I'm not sure which is the offer for 6 USD you are talking about, but I'm nearly sure it's not the one I have and you need to set up additional proxy.
1. Can you post a link to the offer info on tmobile's website?
2. Please, always add country you are talkiing about, because tmobile is not only in the USA (it's not even US company - it's German) - if you can correct topic title, it would be helpful for others.

Given that your subject line is 5.99 Internet, I would guess you want the proxy settings to get T-zones to provide your internet.
The proxy is 216.155.165.50
HTTP port 8080
You have to set up an appropriate modem that uses the proxy. (under connections)

Here u go
Try internet2.voicestream.net or wap.voicestream.net

thanks so much for the help, so far ive been able to go to websites using internet explorer through the 5.99 Tzones full internet hack. I was wondering if its possible to log into agile messenger with this hack? and if not are there any other limitations. thanks again

My experience with this is that it's limited to startard http and https ports. Example: I tried to go to an https page that runs on a non-standard port and the proxy rejected it stating it wasn't a valid port. I really doubt that the messenger will work with T-Zones.
But really, try it and see if it works. It's not going to hurt anything to try. Or, you could try calling tmo's CS reps and see if they know anything about what the service will allow.

its working on my phone.

Tried everything (I think) on my Shadow, cant get it to work.
First was giving me a "couldnt connect" error, now says:
HTTP ERROR: $CODE$
$MESSAGES
Any Ideas?

I use whizzper as my chat client thru esmertec java, and it works fine on the T-zones $5.99 plan.

I'm using T-mobile t-zones on my hermes as well and the only IM client I have gotten to work is palringo. Once installed check out this link to see hack the registry to work with a proxy.

As far as I know, this will not work if you only have the $5.99 plan. Here's what I understood to work:
$5.99 T-mobileweb: wap.voicestream.com
$19.99 Total Internet: internet2.voicestream.com or wap.voicestream.com
$29.00 Total Internet with VPN: internet3.voicestream.com or the other 2

Your Correct...
BTW, there are tmobile usa cabs for each of these plans (instead of doing it manually): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395203

I created a application to help set this up. Here is the thread when I posted it.

The Network Wizard included in WM6 does all this for you.
That is if you are subscribed to the proper plan anyways.

Notice that last line in that post.

Can you disable carrier data connection?

I dont want my Tilt 2 to connect to the data connection EVER! Is there a setting I can change to keep it from doing this? I only use wifi and refuse to pay for a data package.
Mike

settings /communications / data connection off should do what you are asking for

Call your carrier and have them block all data. That is the only true way.

They will not go for that, I am trying to stay under the radar for the whole manditory data package thing. are the phone and data all on the same radio setup? could I flash a wrong setup for data or anything?
Mike

Look up MoDaCo NoData, it disables data connections (such as MEdia Net and AT&T ISP GPRS). That, or go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>Advanced Tab>Select Networks Button and change both to My Work Network. That should block network connections over AT&T's network, since "My Work Network" is set not to connect to the internet, nor does it have any communications settings. Hope that helps

I did have them set to "my work network" copilot GPS still tried to get out. I will look for that NoData.
Thanks
Mike

This is how I disabled DATA connection on my T-Mobile branded touch pro 2.
Connections folder > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks > Drop down menu to T-Mobile Data (on programs that automatically connect to internet) > Edit > Select T-Mobile Data again > Edit > NEXT > Access Point Name : epicx.tmobile.com > Next > Next.
That is how I've been doing it on my previous WM phones (MDA, Wing) and now the Touch Pro 2
MMS will still work via data btw...It is just using diff server

It may try to get out, but it will not succeed. I just tried with Opera and it couldn't connect.

Going abroad.

I'm going on holiday to the Netherlands for a week and don't want to get charged for data whilst roaming.
What are the things I need to disable on my phone and how do I do them? I thought it was just a simple case of switching it to aeroplane mode but I want to make calls back to the UK because its free with the flexible booster I have with T-Mobile.
Thanks in advance

You can put a widget to enable / disable data transfer (add widget -> Settings --> Mobile network ).
You can also disable data tranfer while roaming: menu -> settings -> Wireless & Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Data roaming (on top)

And your second suggestion is enough?
What about pressing the power button and turning off data, is that a more reliable method?

Since you are on T-Mobile UK and heading to Europe, you shouldn't actually need to do anything at all now.
See here.
The important section is here:
What happens when I want to use Internet on my phone or my laptop in an EU country?
When you try to connect to the Internet either from your phone or your Mobile Broadband enabled laptop, you will be prompted to purchase a Booster by either an SMS or by a landing page in your internet browser. You will not be able to use any Internet services until you have purchased a Booster.

I can confirm that when I recently went to Paris, I was unable to use the internet until I purchased a booster. My advice though is to buy a booster anyway, and use internet sparingly (emails, occasional browsing etc).
Regards,
Dave

Thank Dave, that was a really useful link. I was really paranoid about the cost incurred about Facebook updates and emails notifications sent to me. in the background. I think this clears everything up.

It really is time the networks sorted this out, they are all across europe, so there is no need to charge exhorbitant rates once you leave your home country, unless they do it purely as a profit maker.............................

Which is pretty much the reason they do it.
To be honest, the T-Mobile UK euro boosters aren't too bad, but I think the £40 booster should have at least 1gb to be really useful.

data-only sim card
You can buy a data-only sim card for your device. When I was travelling to Europe (Netherlands, Spain, France, Germany), I used MTXConnect, quite simple, you can use it the whole day for fixed price or pay only for Mbs when you need it.

[q] editing MMS Connection Settings

hi,
how do i edit connection settings in the messages folder to make my ROM usable with my provider's MMS settings? everything is greyed out and inaccessible.
i have the info needed from a working phone...

you need to check your APN settings

i dont have that option in wireless & networks

serialteg said:

what option? if you mean "it's not there", that's the whole point, you need to add it >menu >new APN
you need to check with your telco as to what their MMS settings are

in mobile network settings what i get is data roaming, data roaming sound, enable always - on mobile connectivity, and system select (cdma roaming mode). thats it
i see the settings if i go to the messaging menu (inbox) then press menu - settings - connection settings. but they're inaccessible

Do you have a CDMA or GSM phone?

cdma...................

you really should have mentioned that, it's really very significant!
you need a ROM that supports CDMA phones, you can't just put whatever on there

dude i have a cdma rom
i can use the cell phone fine its just the mms settings are for US Cellular which is where the froyo rom comes from... thats not my company

i saw this one post a couple days back where someone edited a file inside the cell which gave him access to these settings. sadly i did not copy or bookmark the page but it was on xda.

Still stuck here fellas... Using pre rooted stock froyo cdma rom from this site.

Tethering does not work, USB or Wifi! SOLVED!!

Running 2.3.3 Generic UK ROM, boot loader locked, not rooted, just completely stock!
As soon as I enable tethering (wifi or usb) the phone drops the data connection (H, 3G, etc. disappears from the notification bar) and my laptop says connected but no internet connection, as soon as I disable tethering the data connection comes back.
I have tried disabling and re-enabling data whilst tethered and it will flick up for a second then disappear again!
This is really annoying as I used to use tethering quite a bit with my X10 Mini!
Any idea's welcome!
Thanks!

After some googling it seems I'm not the only one with this problem, but no solutions yet...

also me the same problem

It's quite a big problem IMO, one of the major functions I want to be able to use and cant!!

i had exactly the same problem, sent the phone off to sony ericsson for repair, waiting for it to come back.... see what happens...

Oh, it works now very well. I just deleted the old wifi-network connections on the computer and now its flawless.

i am experiencing the same problem. I could tether nicely with my X10 and now with my newer and faster Arc, I can't share wifi, which is annoying when I'm out with my ipad and need a wifi connection
SE! we need a fix ASAP!

I've done some tethering with 3.0.1.A.0.145 and it worked flawlessly? Multiple devices at the same time, all of them had pretty smooth internet!

Lucky you!! lol
This problem still exists for me, I try again everynow and then and have only had it work once with a friends iPhone4 connected.

Does it help if you put ",dun" under APN settings>APN Type ?
If there is something already under APN type field just put a ",dun" next to it, save settings and try it by turning on Wifi hotspot.
Or if the field is empty just put there "default,dun" save setting and try.
Hope it helps.

My APN is default,supl and it works perfectly!

I have the same issue! Any help??

This worked for me!!!!
All you need to do is go to Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names
Select your active APN
Scroll down to "APN Type" and click on it
Add ",dun" to the APN Type of your active APN. eg APN Type = "default,supl,dun"
After editing this, you should be able to turn on the Portable Hotspot without the 3G mobile data connection dropping out.

Many thanks guys! I just added ",dun" to mine. Now tethering using this (Rogers) to write this reply!

Heavy Googling mate! lol
Been bugging me since I got the phone two months ago!

I upgraded to 2.3.3 on a Droid 2. I unlocked and rooted the phone but the Wifi no matter which program I use goes to the Verizon site which warns me that I have to pay twenty dollars a month. Has anyone fixed this yet or is there a URL I can go to to solve this issue? If not can someone provide me with a one click fix to go back to the Froyo, and an URL for that?
