what data plan for BlackBerry - Networking

Hi everyone
I am about to take out a new mobile plan and was thinking of using blackberry connect for my hermes.
Do i need to take out the specific blackberry data plan, or will an regular data plan be OK?
T-Mobile or orange here in the UK are currently looking the best options
thanks for your help

can i change basic plan to data plan? us t-mobile MDA

I received US T-Mobile MDA from Gartha Wireless. I told them that i want sk data plan, but they gave me basic plan, so i cant use instant messanging, etc (it will charge me if i use IM, email)...
I called t-mobile, i told them that i want use sk plan for MDA, they not accept sk plan for MDA, but they told me that i can use total internet plan 49.99 a month for MDA or replace to sk3...
so is there way that i can use data plan that include instant messanging, email?
Thanks
FYI: im little good at english,but ill do my best
My recommendation would be to phone them and switch the plan to the blackberry plan - whether you use BB or not it gives you access to the web and data at a lower cost than the internet plan.

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.

Cingular Data Plans (3G)

Hello,
I currently have an unlimited phone data plan from Cingular for $19.95 for my 8125/Wizard, which uses Edge.
(This probably isn't completely kosher, but I'm not going to pay more for the PDA Unlimited Connect plan unless I have to).
Question is - will this plan only work with Edge data access? Or will 3G HSDPA work fine w/ this plan?
In a nutshell - just wondering if Cingular has seperate data plans for 3G. I'm planning to buy the HTC Kaiser as soon as it is available, and I'm hoping I can continue using my existing $19.95 data plan for unlimited 3G data access
3G works fine. Cingular tells you that you must have the PDA plan in order for it to work but that that is a lie. I have an HTC P3600 with the the unlimited $19.95 plan and I get perfect 3G signal. They say that the $19.95 media works plan is only for "smart phones".

blackberry internet and mda

i live in newyork and with my mda i have unlimited internet but the thing is i dont use hotspot and i cant cancel it from my plan so i went to mytmobile and switched my phone to mda on the site so i can get a cheaper internet plan. my question is will this trick work.
??? no entiendo!
You have an MDA and you switched to an MDA on the site and ... - ... I am all confused! Your subject was talking about BLACKBERRY INTERNET AND MDA. So, what are you trying to do? Connecting to the www via GPRS? Using HOTSPOTS?
i have an mda with total internet from tmobile which cost 29.99 but that plan includes hotspot which i dnt want. i call tmobile and they told me that i cant take out hotspot from the plan because its one package. also they told me that this is the only plan that works with mda.
now what i did is i went to www.mytmobile and i changed the phone that i have on my profile of the site to a blackberry in order to get the cheaper internet plan. so what i wanna know is if by changing the plan will my internet still work seeing that i still have an mda

Xperia and T-mobile Data

Hey, i am about to purchase a Xperia X1. I am on T-mobile USA
Do i need to get the 20.00 Unlimited data ? or do i get the 5.99 Unlimited T-zones because the phone is only EDGE?
Thanks guys, great community
As far as I know, the 5.99 tzone deal is no longer available. however, the code can be found on howardforums. it pretty much works the same way as long as you have the right settings.
Technically, you're not supposed to know this.
Depending on what you need to do on your phone, you may or may not need the unlimited data plan.
If all you plan to do is use email, then you can tell the techy that you want the $9.99 100mb plan. Just tell him/her that you just want email and don't want to have to pay 24.99 for that.
If you plan on streaming media and such, then you'll need the unlimited data plan which I believe is $24.99
As far as I know t-zones is a service that offers the download of T-Mobile specific content only. It doesn't provide you internet capabilities.
Good luck!
yeah right
Just got X1 and all day try to connect to T-zones, called T-mobile, they said i should get smartphone data plan in order to use internet on this device.
Thats curious, because i had before P1i, P910i, Samsung innov8 they're all smartphones and worked with my t-zones!
BTW, t-zones is not only for special content, i was able to see whatever site, check email, use google maps. I just was not able to watch youtube clips and internet radio etc...
Any ideas?
dont get unlimited data. what you should do is:
register your tmobile account on the web, incase you havnet already
choose your phone as a razr or something
add tzones plan
set up your xperia
and voila.
theres no point in getting unlimited data, as tmobile doesnt support xperia's 3g ( i hate tmobil )
tzones has been working for me since the wizard.
same for me just get the tzones enabled on your account then go into the connection settings and change it from wap.voicestream.com to epc.tmobile.com and your good to go!
You all are lucky!
I have to purchase the Blackberry plan. But at least I have unlimited everything......but for $40 a month I had better have unlimited everything.
I'm on the 5.99 T-Zones and I have everything working. Email. web its all there. No restrictions. I'm also able to stream videos off my computer via Orb without a problem. I wish I would have gotten it when it was 2.99
Thanks guys! Everything is working with epc.tmobile.com!!!!
I didnt see this APN before, is it somewhere on t-mobile site???
I was almost going to get that unlimited or try 9.99 plan :-E
Guys I need help with tzone settings.
I have HTC Touch Pro and have 9.99 web2go plan.
It was working fine but since last 2 weeks I am not able to use 9.99 data plan.
In order for data plan to work on my HTC Touch Pro I had installed tmobyjoe599 cab
Any help is appreciated.
