OK, I'm a pretty technical guy and I'm still stumped. I've tried entering the T-Mobile provided info into EZ WAP but am obviously not mapping their connection settings info to the right fields in EZ WAP. AFter a couple of hours of tinkering and several searches here I'm caving in and asking for help.
Can somone post the "play by play" EZ WAP setup for T-Mo US?

what info did they give you?... When i calld, they gave me the run-around...plus I tried to ask them why I can't connect threw "internet2.voicetream.com"... & they sound like they gettin mad @ me, an start askin why I need to know all this...
...TMO needs an attitude adjustment
Unfortunately, I agree that the carrier's data specialists are often little or no help. Every question you ask, it turns out that they either:
a. Don't know
b. Pretend to know and give you the wrong answer
c. Assume you're with the Taliban and are trying to break in to their WAP system to threaten civilization
I got the T-Mo official settings at:
http://www.t-mobile.com/help/services/tz/configother.asp
and they are echoed at:
http://www.theody.com/t-mobile.html
Again, the info on these pages doesn't map directly into the connection settings on the PPC or to the settings in EZ WAP. I tries a few intuitive mappings and failed.

Qman, you indeed are the eggman, you are the walrus, you are the eggman, koo-koo-kachoo. (Is that the xda-developers accepted spelling of koo-koo-kachoo?) :^)
I was pulling my hair out on this and have never found any of these settings you spelled out here or on any T-Mo site. It took a few minutes for you to type all that in and I appreciate it.
I was live on T-Zones about 5 minutes after I saw your reply, working perfectly.
Interesting observation, maybe it's an error on my part... I tried your settings in EZ WAP, but connecting through my usual internet2.xxx and the T-Zones stuff wouldn't come up. Other wap sites in EZ WAP would, like yahoo, but not T-Zones. I created a connection called WAP (like you used in your example) and made the APN wap.xxx and it works fine, AND nPOP pulled my mail through it to.
So I'm curious if these statements are true:
1. You can pull WAP and http/smtp through internet2.voicestream.com, but not necessarily T-Mobile's proprietary T-Zones WAP.
2. You can pull WAP, http/smtp, and T-Zones through wap.voicestream.com
If these are true, then I assume that wap.xxx and internet2.xxx are functionaly the same except that wap.xxx gateway has the t-zones subscriber authentication built into it, rather than on the content server.
Since my GPRS connection is always on, I don't want to have to switch connections between wap and nPOP/web sessions, would prefer to stay with one.
@Mad Max
I'm pretty sure your assumption abut that wap.xxx and internet2.xxx functionally are correct and thats why the wap.voicestream AP is my all around AP of choice (its my main T-Mobile AP).
FYI before upgrading to WM2003 the wap AP was also the only AP that would work with Pocket Hotmail 2.0, which now doen't work at all under WM2003. :evil:
Anyhow have fun!
anyone got the ATTWS Settings for this?
MMS and Tmobile US with XDA II
I finally received my XDA II this afternoon.. I have spent most of my afternoon trying to fix this MMS thing. I have used the base software, added EZWap 2.5... Tried every configuration.. Call the useless bozos on Tmobile but couldnt get this darn MMS thing to work...
Can someone please answer my 2 questions
1) What settings do you need with TMO?
2) What plans do you need with TMO?
19.99 All internet + 2.99 + 4.99 etc
Thanks
my MMS works fine, on 2002.
and though i have the internet from tmobile ($19)
goin about it via the wap.voicestream.com works just as good
for browsing net, and using tzones, and mms ofcourse.
the only drawback i hear, is you cant use secure servers on wap.
although i've checked my INBOX several times via wap, and it worked just fine for me.
check your settings from Qman again.
you maybe one digit off.
good luck.
ps: after you set it, if you want to test the mms, give me a buzz.
Hmm...
It is interesting, in my case the Pocket Internet Explorer works.. MMS doesnt and the EZWAP doesnt work...
It is bizzare... I have checked and rechecked each setup as provided by QMAN twice.. Had another person verify it for me...

If you're sure that the settings are OK, my next suspect would be an account setting issue. Unfortunately, getting help from the carriers in debugging that could be pretty tough.

more on the Xda ii. I am posting this message from the XDA. I still cannot send or receive MMS. I had a friend of mine send me a MMS and he got a error message that my phone cannot receive MMS and that a text message would be sent.
I received a notification about the MMS but couldn't retrieve it.
any suggestions
Finally got it working
Finally got it working... There was a MMS Server setting on the network that was missing and took me 18 calls and 95 minutes on the phone with TMobile to get it right.
I can now receive and send MMS to myself.. Looks like the MMS in TMO US is limited to TMO US customers only. I can only send MMS to other TMO US customers.

What was the MMS server name? I'm in Austin, TX, just got a iMate XDA II and can't get my MMS working either.
Do you have to have a plan for MMS? I have the $20 internet already.
What parameters settings do you need in MMS Composer?
What parameter setting do you need in My ISP connection?
Thanks so much,
Craig

I have the unlimited MMS for 4.99 you will need that to send MMS. My MMS settings are all the same. I also have the unlimited WAP for 2.99 and I use the wap.voicestream.net for MMS...
MMS
I talked with T-Mobile. Since I already had the internet access service, T-Zones is already enabled. They said all I need for MMS is T-Zones. I set the right server, ip, etc. I could never receive a MMS picture message to myself. All that came through was the text portion witha download link to tap. Tapping it just brought another text header message. TMO was no help either. Afterwards, ALL my alerts (weather, sticks) started coming to my MMS but I couldn't read anything. I finally had to call TMO to have them remove my phone # off the wap server for t-zones to stop MMS and resume SMS messaging.
Any thoughts on this chain of events?
mms config telfort
got an xda1 with a custom rom, offcourse is there no autoconfig, i can't find the settings for mms in holland (telfort)
you need to install EzWAP 2.5 or its equivilant.
that will add MMS to xda1
good luck.
Just joined Cingular today and am having MMS problems. I've searched on "Cingular MMS" thruout this forum but have not seen any WIZARD USA MMS connection settings. Remember, WIZARD is using WM5 which has a few differences in these setups.
I signed up with Cingular's MEdiaWorks which has data and MMS. I have the data connect working. My settings:
1) My ISP
2) Add a new modem connection
3) Name for connection: <user choice>
4) Modem: Cellular Line (GPRS)
next
5) APN: wap.cingular
next
6) Username, password & domain: leave blank
finish
This works, connects to Cingular data and I've had up to 135Kbps data rates which is definantly EDGE speeds.
Now for MMS, which I can't get working. I also have never used MMS so I'm not sure of it's interaction with connections, WAP and the phone.
I send a MMS message, it connects,is sending and returns with error message:
"Unable to send your message(s). Your message(s) will be saved in the Outbox."
In MMS section, I click of Menu (WM5)-MMS Configuration, up comes 3 tans. Here are my Servers settings:
Server Name: Cingular MMSC
Gateway: 66.209.11.61
Port Modem: 9201
Server address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect via: (I've tried My ISP and My Work Network without success)
Sending size limitation: 100K
WAP Version: WAP 2.0
In searching, suggestions were to set up a "My Work Network" connection as follows:
Connection name: WAP
Modem: Cellular Line (GPRS)
next
APN: wap.cingular
User name: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
Domain: blank
finish
Then they said to set up a proxy server which I did as follows:
Check box "This network connects to the Internet"
Check box "This network uses a proxy server ..."
Leave proxy server blank
Click on Advanced
Set both WAP and Secure WAP to:
Server: 66.209.11.61
Port: 9201
User names, password and domain, leave blank
This does not work.
Interestingly, the two connections (My ISP & My Work network) have the same APN, wap.cingular?????
I read one post saying something like you had to configure MEdia Works on your phone. What does this mean?
Any thoughts in the WIZARD community would be helpful. Does Cingular USA even support MMS for the WIZARD??? Yikes
I haven't even got to setting up Express Mail yet. I'm sure another post is comming.
Thanks all
Craig

Opps, my broadband was a little slow in filling out the rest of your message. Got it but I've tried this CAB without success. I'll give it another try.
yah, i just tried to send an mms and it didn't work. have you tried giving cingular a call? If they can't help waiting a month or so would be good because thats when the wizard100 is supposed to come out on cingular.
see http://www.bengalboy.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=42&forum=8 for the settings

The HTC WIZARD for Cingular is actualy the HTC 8125 model. Do a google search on 'Cingular 8125' and you see lot's of info. Even Best Buy are starting to carry them ...
I signed up for expressMail from Cingular but they don't have the phone client posted on their web site for the 8125 (Wizard). They do have the HTC 2125 (Smartphone) client but don't offer that phone for sale at their site anyway.
I think we're getting closer to the Wizard at Cingular.
best buy is selling the 8125's alreadY? i'm gonna make a trip down there today!

Cingular MMS Settomgs
Here's a CAB file with the MMS settings for Cingular. It seems to work on my Qtek 9100.
does someone have the same cab file for t-mobile usa (to be used with qtek 9100)
Here's the VPN enabled and without VPN CAB files (USA)
I have attached both the VPN enabled and non-VPN enabled CAB files.
Now that the 8125 is out on cingular, all the mms and medianet settings can be found on the cingular support site. Check it out here:

I have a T-Mo USA MDA with XM6r3. I am not receiving any MMS messages. If I try a send and receive in the MMS messages inbox I get an error synching. Regardless of whether it is supposed to sync or not, I am not getting any MMS messages.

Connect via - T-Mobile MMS (other choices are My work, my isp, work, secure wap, the wap, the internet)
Sending Size Limitations - 300K
Wap Version - 2.0 (1.2 also available)
Does this sound right? Anything else I should be doing?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
This is what I use.

Download network wizard and copy cab file to phone. Delete all current connection settings including MMS settings and then install Network Wizard and run it. Select USA as the country and T-Mobile as your carrier and it will automatically configure it all for you and it will work afterwards. What it does is automatically downloads your settings from the network for a painless setup.
Do you have any internet plan?
had the same problem as you and found out that my internet settings were wrong. Once I put in the correct info, everything was working fine.
I use the 5.99 plan proxy.

You are right about that, but not giving him any information. Network Wizard takes care of everything you just mentioned short of paying for your data plan.
Um... theres no USA option in network wizrd just installed it. A little insight would help.

Hi.
I've used many, many APN settings over the past 6 or so months, and on top of living in a valley and get really bad data inside my house my APN setting weren't helping matters I've came to realize. If I walk 2 or 3 doors up I get 5 bars and 3g or H getting over 5 MPS. Since I've used these settings, I always have at least between 1 and 3 bars in my house and constant Edge with 3G on and off. This is due to my new APN Settings. With ANY OTHER APN setting I used I would barely ever get a bar in my house and I had to end up putting money on my Fring account, and I tried Truphone too.. they both worked great but I don't want to pay an extra
$10 or $20 a month to make calls from home.With these new APN settings I don't need , (fring,skype,truphone ect..) anymore. Here are the settings if anyone wants them.. Remember, these are for the HTC HD2, running android, T mobile USA PERIOD.. Just Tmo US.. nowhere else..
Name T-Mobile US
APN epc.tmobile.com
Proxy <not set>
port <not set>
Username <not set>
Password <not set>
Serveer <not set>
MMSC http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

On your phone go to Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile networks > Access point names. Once you are there you can edit an existing APN if there is one. If not, press Menu and then you can choose to add a new APN. After you enter all the info for your new APN, press Menu and then save. Go back to home screen, wait a while for your new settings to update and connect, and you should have data!
I keep having issues with mms, in wm i'm able to do it all with out issues. in android, froyosence 3.2, radio is 2.12.50.02_2, when i just input the apn settings given here i was able to receive a mms instantly, however about 2 min later i went to send one and it wont send says "unable to send message Generic Network Failure. What i'm curious about is if the android data plan will make any difference with this issue. it also seams that the issue is not the apn so much as it is mobile data drops connection, however internet browsing forces a connect but it does nothing for the mms.. receive or send. any clues on if switching data plans will fix this or what the issue i need to be looking at is to resolve this issue. thanks

Hmmm, that's a thought. But before you go and shell out the cash for an androiod data plan see if you can borrow a friends sim card that has an android plan and see it works.. better yet, my daughter has an android plan,, I'll use her sim card real fast later today and try it and let you know...If I forget please remind me..

Great Advice!! Walked me thru perfectly, and I don't even know what an APN is
Good Job
First off let me say I've been searching EXTENSIVELY on this issue.
I'm in the US on T-Mobiles HTC HD2 (obviously).
When I purchased the phone it had already been rooted (I believe that is the correct term). It was running winmo 6.5 along with Android on an SD card.
I haven't had the phone long but I've learned so much from this site regarding modding and such. I can NOT send MMS messages on Android (I believe I remember sending one on Winmo). I don't have a data plan and I've tried every single APN I've found. Still nothing.
I recently flashed my phone with the new MAGLDR. I used "MDJ_Revolution_HD_v._2.2_NAND". It runs pretty smooth.. Except no mms capability =(. I've updated the Radio to the most recent. 2.15~ (I think).
I've read that possibly it's the ROM I'm using. Like I said I've been searching, please bare with me on this question, but I'm a little confused on what a ROM actually is. From what I've read everything I've found is a "winmo" rom. I beleive the rom that came with my phone (note: it came from someone else, its not stock) is Energy? It's a blue logo at bootup.
Would I have better luck with the MMS if I flashed to another rom? And if so, how would that affect my android? This site is full of information and sometimes it's hard to sift through what I need and what is extra. ANY help on this matter would be greatly greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I didn't know that you could send an MMS without a data plan. Most Android builds won't send MMS over Wifi and without a data plan. Some of the new NAND builds have MMS working over Wifi.

My old Nokia would send good quality MMS without a data plan so I just assumed this would be the same. If you think this is the case then I suppose I can stop beating my head against the wall.

I knew it! How did they get it working?
There were three phones on our family plan and none of them would send/recieve MMS. I don't know what they did to get it working, however, they sent information from the cell towers to the phones repeatedly until all three phones worked properly.
2 things u need to check out is to fix the problem,
1. (Boot Android) if u are in roaming area u need to go to your settings go to wireless and networks then go to mobile networks (NOT MOBILE NETWORK) and simply click on the checkmart data roaming to enable data tranfer over roaming coverage and then go to Accesspoint names and clik on the one avaliable. ( you should now be able to send and recieve MMS messages or send them over your network.

No sorry that wasn't it..
It turns out I needed to use a SPECIFIC APN if I didn't have a data plan. It was wap.voicestream.com and then the other stuff. I don't remember it. It works now!

First off let me say I've been searching EXTENSIVELY on this issue.
I'm in the US on T-Mobiles HTC HD2 (obviously).
When I purchased the phone it had already been rooted (I believe that is the correct term). It was running winmo 6.5 along with Android on an SD card.
I haven't had the phone long but I've learned so much from this site regarding modding and such. I can NOT send MMS messages on Android (I believe I remember sending one on Winmo). I don't have a data plan and I've tried every single APN I've found. Still nothing.
I recently flashed my phone with the new MAGLDR. I used "MDJ_Revolution_HD_v._2.2_NAND". It runs pretty smooth.. Except no mms capability =(. I've updated the Radio to the most recent. 2.15~ (I think).
I've read that possibly it's the ROM I'm using. Like I said I've been searching, please bare with me on this question, but I'm a little confused on what a ROM actually is. From what I've read everything I've found is a "winmo" rom. I beleive the rom that came with my phone (note: it came from someone else, its not stock) is Energy? It's a blue logo at bootup.
Would I have better luck with the MMS if I flashed to another rom? And if so, how would that affect my android? This site is full of information and sometimes it's hard to sift through what I need and what is extra. ANY help on this matter would be greatly greatly appreciated.
Thank you

The MMS should be setup as follows:
1. Settings --> Wireless and Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Access Point Names
2. The APN should be named "T-Mobile US"
3. Edit that or create it and the settings within should be:
Name: T-Mobile US
APN: epc.tmobile.com
Proxy: 216.155.165.050
Port: 8080
Username: (leave this blank)
Password: (leave this blank)
Server: (leave this blank)
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50
MMS Port: 8080
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: (leave this blank)
Once done, back your way out, maybe reboot the phone for good measure but shouldn't be required. To test success, send yourself a picture message (mms).
Hope that helps
My Streak actually had two entries for APN's. One as above, and one called T-Mobile MMS

Thanks, but that one never worked. I heard that was for if you HAVE a data plan, seeing as how I don't I was able to use this one:
Name: mms
APN: wap.voicestream.com
username: mms
password: mms
MMSC: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.050
MMS Port: 8080
And it works now!
Ok update: Now all the MMS I receive are very very small. 4KB~ Average. Any Ideas?
New Problem
I have all the MMS Settings set up properly. The onlu problem that I have is...
I am able to send picture messages aka MMS Messages ( I am on an unlimited messaging plan and hence the picture messages are included)
However I have problems downlading and viewing them.
Lets say my friend sends me a picture message ( a .jpg file) It shows me in the subject that there is an attachment but when I try to download it (first it doesn't even automatically downloads it when I have it set up correct )
the error message comes up " Unable to download message from __"
Can anyone help me ? I don't know how this issue started. I only remember that MMS messages used to download by themselves once before.

OK, this is dumb, but try this...
Settings/All Settings/Connections/Connections/Advanced/Select Networks
on the drop down list select T-Mobile MMS. Then, Edit. Tap & Hold on black dot T-Mobile MMS, Then Connect.
