Can someone tell me what I need to do to get an Unlocked Cingular 8125 to work on TMobile so my GPRS and MMS work? I tried doing a search and a lot of irrelevant posts come up.
assuming you have a data plan, the gprs access point name is;
wap.voicestream.com
That should do it, there's not PW or other logon info you need to input.
http://www.t-zones.co.uk/en/Getting_started/help_with_tzones/mms.html
On all MMS handsets, ensure that the following has been set up:
Connection Name UK MMS
Data Bearer GPRS
Access Point name general.t-mobile.uk
User name user
Prompt password no
Password one2one
Authentication secure
Gateway IP address 149.254.211.010
Homepage http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk:8002
Connection security off
Session mode Permanent
Where do I input these settings on the Phone? I actually found this site that looks like it has all the info.

Hello everyone, i'm newbie here. I just bought a xda exec and i want to sign up for T-Mobile Total Internet in USA for GPRS service. I wonder if anybody has done it and how was it? How fast is it because as I contacted their customer service, they said they don't know anything about xda exec settings.
Thanks advanced for any reply.
Simple..
1) Make sure its unlocked
2) Get SIM card from T-mobile and insert
3) For intetnet go to Settings and then Connections
4) Under "My ISP" click "Add a new modem connection"
5) Name connection T-mobile
6) In the type of connection detail use "Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)"
7) Access point will be - wap.voicestream.com
8) Click next, then click finish. Do not need the set any advanced settings or Passwords or login.
Just posted this on my MDA PRO with the newest DOPOD ROM
Connections are good, but othside the metro areas I havent had much luck WiFi works great.
7) Access point will be - wap.voicestream.com
----> T-Mobile offers 2 different data plans: if you go with the cheap one, named T-Mobile Web, you get access to the wap sites only, and you will be using the wap.voicestream.com access point.
If you go with the second plan (a lot more expensive) named Total Internet, you will hit the internet, and you will use the access point internet2.voicestream.com
Most people can hit most of the www by simply subscribing to the T-Mobile Web (the wap plan) and then configure the following proxy in the connection settings:
HTTP proxy: getmorespeed.voicestream.com port 8080.
Interesting.. since I have teh big plan.. will see how the other settigns work for me.
thanks,
Thanks for the reply, I think im gonna go with the big one since I use the T-Mobile Hot Spot too. Thanks so much though...
I tried the settings as you describe but my browser (IE) still returns an error stating that the page could not be located. I've been playing around with my Exec for 2 days now since it arrived and have yet to get this to work. Thanks in advance because I know you guys have alot of experience.

Thanks for all the information, my exeec is still on his way so I haven't really tried anything out yet. But one more question if someone could help, will I be able to access to free email services such as hotmail, yahoo mail? because my understanding is if you use the cheap plan one, you can browsing the websites but not be able to send/receive emails. Thanks,
hey
I use this already just use wap.voicestream.com. It doesn't matter the diffrences are one you have a public address and the other you have a private address. Everything works through wap.voicestream.com. Don't put the proxy settings in just the gprs
Can someone point me in the right direction I've doen numerous searchs and talked to tech support (useless) . I have a 8125 that I picked up, although I am a AT&T sim card user (our company hasn't upgraded yet) so I unlocked the phone and it works great. although I can not access mmode or anything email or Internet related unless using wifi.
Can someone point me in the right direction for some instructions on how to get this thing set up to work with the legacy AT&T wireless system?
You need to manually enter the AT&T GPRS and MMS settings.
Call up AT&T and ask for the necessary information. They'll give it to you.
PM me you're email address I have the cab file that I can send to you.

Well they don't exist anymore and the guys at Cingular could only get me so far. that's why I'm looking around for it.
Mark, you have a PM, thanks in advance
Cab file didnt work Mark. Only change it made was resetting my today backround to the default. all the settings are still the same.
is there a list of settings or a walk through for setting it up manually somewhere?
It should have worked.
Here is what I have:
MMS Configuration
Retrieve Messages Immediately
Save Sent Messages
Servers
AT-T MMSC
10.250.250.100
9201
http://mymsc.mymmode.com
My Work Network
100k
Wap 1.2
My ISP
AT-T Internet
Cellular Line (GPRS)
Proxy - Proxy Name
Work Network
AT-T WAP
Proxy - Proxy Name
Proxy
This network connects to the internet
This network uses a proxy server
WAP 10.250.250.250 9201
Secure WAP 10.250.250.250 9203
Hope this makes sense.
Another option is to go to the Cingular web page and choose Support, Phone/Device Support.
Select the following:
Network: former AT&T Wireless"
Manufacturer: Siemens
Model: SX66
Use the information in Device Setup to configure the browser/internet and MMS settings. It won't match exactly because the SX66 is a 2003 device, but you should be able to figure it out.
Hello all,
I've just managed to unlock (Thanks to buzz-lightyear!) my lovely uni from T-Mobile to be able to use my tesco simcard (until the vodaphone ones come through) I seem to be able to make/receive calls as I should be.
However, I got a message from tesco shortly after making my first call which said 'Your phone does not appear to be able to accept automatic settings, please call our care team on blah blah blah to resolve the problem'.
Did that and while the guy I spoke to had never heard of the handset, he provided me with a bunch of settings which I somehow need to stick into the system. They are as follows:
WAP
homepage = http://wap.tesco-mobile.com
apn address prepay.tesco-mobile.com
gateway 193.113.200.195
username tescowap
password password
port 9201
MMS
http://mmsc.mms.02.co.uk:8002
apn - prepay.tesco-mobile.com
ip = 193.113.200.195
username tescowap
password password
port 9201
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My question is this: Where and how do I get these settings into this phone. Is the gateway similar to the WINS? I'm not sure what I need to do here, I would dearly appreciate anyones help on this.
Also, I want to donate a few quid to buzz and here, but when I try to do it on buzz's site, the paypal site comes up in German. Any ideas there please?
Thanks very much.
Alan
I have no interest in MMS so cannot advise but about the wap/internet ...
AFAIK tesco mobile runs on O2 network. My O2 PAYG setting are as follows; settings, connections, advanced, set to my work network. Add a new modem connection. Put a name and choose "cellular line (GPRS)" Next enter apn address. Next enter username and password. Finish. Under proxy, tick "this network uses a proxy.." Put 193.113.200.195. Tap advanced and put 193.113.200.195:8080 for the first 3 and 193.113.200.195:1080 for the last. Soft reset.
If this doesn't work I would try your same APN. username and password, but without proxy.
triplejay, thanks very much!
I haven't done it yet but I have a feeling those settings are going to work. The IP address you have supplied is the same one the tesco mobile 'care team' member gave me. I didn't end up online, but I think because we didn't put a proxy in, he wasn't sure we needed one.
I'll give it a go and see what happens there.
Thanks again!
Sorry to drag this up, but has anyone else got this phone using a Tesco Mobile sim? For all I try, I cannot get MMS to work. If you do, please let me know all of the settings and where I need to put them into.
Cheers
Thanks triplejay, I followed your instructions and they are spot on. Also thanks to inksmithy for the info. Im back on the mobile web - yeha!! Good stuff fellas
Hello,
I'm completely lost, so sorry for the completely noob message. I just got an AT&T 8525 running Windows Mobile 5, and I used the unlocker on this site to unlock it. Worked great. But I still can't send or receive MMS messages from the phone. I use T-Mobile. I've fished through tons and tons of sites explaning the settings and how to set this up, but it's just not working for me.
If I go under "connections", I have a section thing that I made, called "T-Mobile GPRS". Under that, if go to "Manage existing connections", I hav eone called "T-Mo MMS1" that I made which uses Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) Access Point: wap.voicestream.com, no user name, no password, no domain. Then I did proxy settings Proxy server "216.155.165.050" and under Advanced I have the HTTP Proxy server as "216.155.165.050:8080". Then I go to start-messaging and hit "Menu-tools-options" and I click MMS then click the Servers tab where I named one "T-Mo MMS". Under this, the gateway is "216.155.165.050" Port "8080", server address "http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms", and connect via "T-Mobile GPRS". At this point, I keep reading that there should be some sort of "WAP" menu or something, but I don't have that. The only other thing I have there is "sending size limitation" which only lets me choose 600K.
When I go to send a picture message, it connects to the GPRS, but then just sits there "sending" it. But it never sends, and when I come back, there's a red X on my message saying that it never sent.
Could anyone please help me out or direct me to the right place/forum/thread for this type of problem? Thank you very much.
In the MMS section, you have to change the settings in the MMS options to use T-mobile MMS settings.
Thanks for your quick reply. I'm not quite sure what you mean. Could you elaborate?
-- Nick
replace 216.155.165.050 with 216.155.165.50.
The 050 is a mistake on the tmobile site.
That worked!
Thank you, Sandhawk! That was definitely the problem. I appreciate it
-- Nick
Ok, I'm having the same problem, but have followed all of the suggestions with no fix. I'm also on T-mobile, and get the "error synchronizing" message. I've tried all of the settings I could possibly find, but nothing is working. I'm using Schlap's 4.01 rom. Thanks.
Help!
I have the 8125 so the phone is set to receive all of it's mms messages through cingular. Now that I'm using a un-locked t-mobile sim I still can not get my mms messages.
Does anyone know how to make this work?
Under "MMS Configuration" for the servers, there is a "new" option. When I open that, it asks for the following:
Server name______________
Gateway:________________
Port number:_____________ the number in the port box is 9201
Server address:_______________
Connect via: it gives the options of media net, my work network, my isp, work, sicure WAP Network, the WAP network, the internet.
Am I looking to go the right route and can anyone help?
Thanks,
Loretta
try one of these cabs.. even if you don't have a data plan these should setup your MMS..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2237367&postcount=1
Thank you...but I cant find what you said to go to...
How do I get to that place you suggested I look? I tried to copy-paste it into the browser and it came up not found?
thanks,
loretta
You didn't say who you have service with. Those cabs are for tmobile just CLICK (that's why it's blue) the link (you can't copy and paste it because the URL displayed is truncated). If you have cingular then I can't help you
These CABs are awesome! Make sure to use the rigt one though. I find that I need to use the WAP one (his 5.99 plan) to get it to work in the SE US.
Thanks a bunch!
What do your CABs do differently than just setting up the connection and the MMS server though? Up until I stumbled across these CABs, I almost had the settings memorized.
