There was a guide on how to get internet with the 5.99 tmobile internet plan by using a proxy but I can't find the thread...can someone link me? thanks.
So I have read plenty of times about people access the Tmobile data without having a data package. Currently I do not have a data package, I took it off my plan. I wanted to know if someone could help me out with the connection settings for a Tmobile wing. I keep finding instructions for free internet but its for the dash and i dont have a couple options they are asking for. I have a Wing with touch it 2.3. What do i need to do, delete the old settings and add new connections?? help would be awesome, anybody that is working with the wing or that rom that could help, or point me to a thread, i would appreciate it tremendously. Also, i'm in Orlando and i have seen posts of people here in orlando with the dash getting free internet.
Thanks guys!
I've always had the data plan, so I don't know. But here's a post I found in another forum

In addition to above these need to be set:

Select Network: WAP Network
1. With these setting you can switch automatically from GPRS to WIFI seamlessly.
2. At the Windows Media Mobile site, Windows Media Player will play streaming video.
3. You can also connect to T-Mobile Web (http:/wap.myvoicestream.com
4. You can send MMS or pictures via POP email
These setting will allow virtually everything to work with the $4.99/5.99 T-Mobile Web Plan. Using alternate setting can work for somethings but not all.

Thats just about correct. I actually just figured it out before you posted. Thank you anyway.
BTW any possibilities of making the homepage google?
Im answering my own question but thought others would find it usefull too.
To do this you have to edit the registry. HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/AboutURLs. Then there is a value for "home" Change it to whatever. You have to put http://
The dataplan is only $20, lol.. I'm gonna laugh when these guys try and get "free" internet then all of sudden end up with a $400 data bill.
For years, I've been paying close to $40 a month for the data plan ... so when they took it down to $19, I'm not complaining.
I had the data plan when it was $9.99 or $11.99 @ month and all the sudden they canceled out the whole data plan and stuck me with t-zones. I got back on the data plan but was bummed they screwed me over. In case anyone doesn't know the t-mobile data package comes with "Hotspots" but you have to configure it on a separate web page. Good Luck getting CS to explain how to do it they will try and sell you another package along with the $19.99 fee. But "Hotspots" is part of the data package already.
Well, I had the data plan for a long while and realized that the amount that i use it, it truely isnt worth the money for the amount that i use it. I am on a flex pay account, prepaid, so i pay for my service a month in advance and I keep no money in my flex account, which is where they deduct charges that i pay for per service (data, minutes after i exceed my total, text messages etc) I dont know how they would charge me if that was the case
I use the data plan like crazy... various of my email accounts come to my phone directly and I use IM and all sorts of craziness on there ... so I would die without it. hah
is it free???
someone plz reply,
i dont have any data plan on my tmob wing,and i did setting in wap according to above and i am able to get internet,
i have question is it free??
i just started using it recently and i have not got any bill yet,do they charge for this???
help plz i am newbie did search but couldnt fine any post which say free...
plz
for someone using open touch 3.0 biggy can they help with the proper settings? i am unable to get this to work. when i have it setup i goto IE and load pages the error i always get is Error not authorized.....
worked flawlessly thx

hi all
i am newbie and just got wing few days ago,and i dont have any data plan,and i did setting in wap according to someone mention in this forum
like proxy setting and 216.155.165.50 etc
i am able to get internet now,
but question is, is it free???
or they charge me latter??
plz help>>> thanks
I would say you should be ok.
so does this mean i dont have to have the tzones $5.99 plan to get access to the internet using the proxies? so i can just type it the proxies port and host and have the internet working without the $5.99 plan?
Why pay if you are getting it for free?
for some reason, I cant browse sometimes. Any clue ?
btw, im using the above mentioned proxy for http,wap,swap

I did a search for WAP on this forum and could not make a find. Would you please let me know where you found this info as I would like to try it on my Wing. Thank you.
I did'nt know you could do that. I dont't think that T_mobiel should have the power to charge you for anything that you have not signed up for. Check in our contract and see if there is any mention of any such thing. And please let us know of where you read about these settings and if you are chraged on you ractual bill when you recieve it. Thanks.

Otherwise try the link in my signature
O2 Settings
Just install the attached cab to your mobile. Then go to O2 installer under start and install. Everything should work fine - even microsoft exchange!

Hey there....
for all of you T-Mobile HD2 Owners (like me) in case you dont know this..
there is a modded version of Opera Mini 5.1 made specially for us (T-Mobile users) enabling us to use the internet for free !!!
So for all of you who don't have a valid T-Mobile Data Plan. Here's how you can get it for FREE !!!!
Requirements: Windows Mobile 6.1/6.5/6.5.x
T-Mobile Flex Pay Plan/Prepaid Plan
Step 1:
I assume that you already know how to add/edit the APN Settings and add a proxy server. If NOT feel free to PM me.
For all those who know how to. Add these settings manually.
Name: T-Mobile US
APN: wap.voicestream.com (this is most important)
Proxy: 216.155.165.50 (HTTP/S proxy)
Port: 8080
Step 2:
Download the attached modified Opera Mini 5.1 cab (for all resolutions)
ENJOY !!!
Feel free to press the Thanks button if you found this post worth it....
In case this doesnt work for you (which it mostly wont) PM me...may be we can figure out why !!!
Credits go here
Edit: Android Version Added
Edit2: Android Version Opera Mini 6 Added
Call me stupid if you want but but but... you're still required to have T-Mobile service to use this (meaning the 3G connection, not Wi-Fi) so, it's very far from "free" even if it could be a workaround for a data plan which I'm guessing is the whole idea.
Somewhere down the line T-Mobile is going to track pretty much everything... could get slammed with a big bill after the fact even in spite of such claims of it being "free" I suppose. Worth the risk? Hardly.

Dude !! first of all when you put in the APN Settings !! see the small "E" near the signal strength....which means you are already on their EDGE Network !!
As far as tracking is concerned !! I have been using this since past 6-8 months and no one has a clue and they never will !! You know why ?? (Cos a Tmobile representative told me this that too being my friend since the APN is of the old Tzones plan which is no longer in the market but strangely the APN still works)
choice is yours for the so called "RISK" !!!
ughhhhhhhhhh....annoying dream
Try this if u r on prepaid put google.com as proxy and make sure u have some credit left. :=)

i definitely agree. when the packet data icon is "X" it means that the gprs connection is not available in your area or your simcard connection is disabled by your network provider. however if you can see "G"/"E"/"3G"/"H". the connection is available. but if your on prepaid, some carriers wont allow you to connect on the accespoint of the network. they required a min amount of load/credits to use the apn. while some just like here in our country allows you to connect to the accesspoint but pages that you may access is only limited to the network's wappage/homepage. many network have glitches. bugs like you can access sites thats out of the carrier's wappage/homepage just by inserting characters @ the end of the url. for some reasons it confuses the network and allows packet data in even without load. were using this trick for a very long time on java versions my only problem is editing the server of the native opera mini for winmo.

I really don't think you can get free. Tmobile would detect you using data and probably charge you for using it as on the go. Tell me if i am wrong. All my data usage are viewable online.
