Please could somebody tell me whether or not i can unlock a XDAI to take a payg sim, from a contract one!!!!!! and if so how it is done please :roll:
If you are staying with the same provider with your payg sim then there is no need. If you wish to unlock to another provider you can try xdaunlock, xda manipulator with serial cable or you can install the special edition rom.
The thing is with that Cruisin-Thru is that when i try my o2 payg simcard i get no signal and the network does not recognize the simcard, having talked to o2 they say that because it was a contract phone it cannot be used as a payg phone....
You can stick both a standard or Online (Genie) P&G SIM into a XDA1 & it will work perfectly fine until you go to access the Mobile Internet via GPRS (which isn't possible on P&G). You can still use the Mobile Internet over GSM though (including MSN Messenger). The only settings that need to be changed after changing the SIM is the APN & username for the GPRS WAP & the Message Centre number.
I would take a look at your SIM before the device as no modifications are needed to the hardware such as unlocking to use a P&G SIM in them.
can i put my boostmobile sim card in the wing, and if not can i buy a prepaid tmobile sim card and put it in the tmobile wing. And if the prepaid sim card works what features would work and what features would not work.

no, you cannot use boost mobile sim card in your wing.
yes, you could use a prepaid t-mobile sim card with your wing. Incidentally, I'm using a Cingular (AT&T) Pay-As-You-Go (prepaid) sim card on my tmobile wing.
Any feature supported by tmobile will work on your wing (provided you pay for it if you have to)

Except for the free t-zones that work on, say, a Nokia 6030, but not on the Wing, nor, reportedly, on other smartphones or pocket pc phones. No great loss, it was just CNN, ABCnews, account info (dial #999# instead) and lots of links to by ringtones, wallpapers, games and the like.
hey, just wondering if us tmobile has free tzones still(or again..). i wanna get a prepaid sim for my 2nd tytn, and was gunna go w/ tmobile if the internet was free..
also, if anyone uses prepaid w/ their ppc, do they use cingular or tmobile? (or other)
Guy's,
I'm on a shortstay in NYC and wanted to get a T-Mobile prepaid SIM to use in my HTC Magic as data on my VF UK tariff is going to be stupid.
I went into a store and borrowed a prepaid SIM, I setup the following APN's on the Magic:
gprs.t-mobile.com
internet2.voicestream.com
internet3.voicestream.com
But couldn't get a connection. From the stores demo G1 I couldn't figure out what Android APN settings for a T-Mobile prepaid SIM I would need. Including the MCC and MNC.
Needless to say the rep's informed me prepaid doesn't work with a G1 or "G2" as I had to refer to my Magic.
Can someone please help as I'd really like to get my Magic running while I'm here.
Any help appreciated
Cheers
they told you right. No data whatsoever on prepaid with T-Mobile. You can however get a flexpay account with no deposit or contract. They offer a G1 data plan on flexpay for about $25. You will have to give them a US mailing address, but one of those ain't hard to find.
So there is no way I can use the standard browsing APN that's on a prepaid SIM and manually enter this into my Magic, as from my UK network knowledge APN's are handset agnostic, as in they work on any device s'long as you have the right settings and obviously the APN is on that MSISDN?
So I suppose I need to know what APN's do you get on a prepaid T-Mobile SIM?
its not possible...ive tried to do everything and search everywhere...i gave up after a month of fiddiling around and just signed up for flexpay.
if you get it to work please let us know.
Hello everyone,
I have a T-Mobile Wing which I want to use with an AT&T prepaid SIM card. I called T-Mobile and received the SIM unlock code, but with the AT&T SIM inserted my Wing is unable to connect to the network (it simply says "Searching..." in the left corner indefinitely).
I understand that this device does in fact work with AT&T service so I am a bit mystified. Perhaps the solution is staring me in the face and I am just too daft to see it. If anyone could shine some light on this for me I would greatly appreciate it.
Is a 3G sim card? Might not work on an Edge phone
lol you have to configure the network for it to work. Try the cab in this post:
