T-Mobile US settings for EZ WAP 2.5

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.

T-Mobile US Cab File

Hi,
Does anyone have or know where I can get a hold of this file. I flashed my Vario with the K-Jam Rom and now can't connect to the network.
Thanks

Did You mean Can't make calls?
Or internet?

Here are the T-Mobile US Settings, which is what I assume you're looking for.
Jon.

Thanks for the file. I programed in the internet settings myself, and although it was slow, it finally connected to T-Mobile for voice calls.
Cheers,

Jon - you rock. I thought I was about to spend too much additional money for a frinkin' cab file. got mms and gprs to work. now if I can just figure out how to set up email and get a wireless lan bug i have.
On the wireless side - I can get it to connect to my wireless router - but I cannot get it to browse the web via pocket IE. Any thoughts out there?

If you are using T-Zones service you can't get IE to work straight off as they have disabled port 80 and you can only go through the T-Zones proxy. It's a pain - the way around is go into T-zones (wap.myvoicestream.com) and use the options in the menu there to get to the web pages you want - I set up the ones I use as T-Zones bookmarks. I have a feeling if you pay for the 19.99 monthly internet service you can use the IE straight but havent tried that yet

Ok, maybe a stupid question, but what does this file really do?
I had Internet service working ok with the plain jane qtek 9100 rom after making an account and poking in the right GPRS gateway, and voice calls worked as soon as I put in the sim. Text and MMS seemed fine too (at least until I upgraded to the new qtek rom - but that's another thread).
So I'm sure I'm missing something, but what actually is in the CAB?

I am not sure I understand the approach you are giving - if I want to leverage my current ISP provider and my wireless LAN connection on my K-JAM - I have to do what? What seems to be happening is I can connect to my WLAN at home - get an IP address, good signal, etc - however - when I try to go to Google or something - is says "Locating" but never connects. I messed around with the proxy setting for T-Mobile and actually turned them off - and was able to connect through my WLAN (not GPRS) - however, that screwed up my WAP setting and now I can't ge into wap.myvoicestream.com (of course). Anybody have the manual settings for the T-mobile proxy they can share? I tried reloading the T-mobile .cab file - but it errors out.
Don't you think there should be a way to use your WLAN (which I already pay for and does not cost T-Mobile any $$) and GPRS t-zones (which I already pay T-Mobile for)?

thanks works great

settings, setup? Please help!
Please help!
I installed the file, nothing seems to be changed. All the connection settings dissapeared from setup. when I go to IE, web page, right away gives me an arror message, "can't connect". before it was "loading" and it was like forever..
May be I should put in the settings manually?
Is there a detail how?
I have WM6.1 (TMobile, internet service active on the plan)
I spent hours calling tmobile tech support,, - 0!
PLEASE GIVE AN ADVICE!
Thanks a lot!

Have any of you tried my Tmobile CABs ?

T-Mobile US $5.99 Plan and HTC Home Weather

I set my Touch Dual up today using internet with the T-MobileWeb plan, which uses a proxy server. I'm finding that I can't get the HTC Home Plugin Weather to work.
Does anyone else here use the Tmobileweb plan and use HTC Weather? If so, what do i need to do to get it working?
I'm currently still using the stock ROM, WM6. Will be flashing a new ROM soon but wanted to get everything working here first. Any help would be appreciated.

Same issue here. I have wifi half the time and just use that. If I REALLY need the weather, I use a web page.

Bummer. But can't complain since it's $5.99. I'm using SPB Weather and it works fine. The only thing is that it doesn't show current weather. Does anyone use one that shows current weather that also works with the TMobile $5.99 plan?

I do not think it is the 5.99 vs full internet plan. I read somewhere saying the the HTC Home Weather Tab does not work with the data plan (however, it works on WIFI).
By the way, can someone share the TMO setting for using the Tmobile US $5.99 data plan on ATT Tilt?

Refer to this link:

Here's the setting:
5.99

under proxy settings check: this network connects to the internet
check this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
proxy server should be :216.155.165.50

wap: 216.155.165.50:9201

under modem, your access point name should be : wap.voicestream.com
name and password blank.
under advanced check use server assigned ip address
use software compression
use ip header compression.
T-Mobile Total Internet
The only differences is instead of wap.voicestream.com, its:
internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com
And instead of ports 9201 its 9203.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The only problem I have is I need to switch my setting between accessing the internet and downloading my email. It seems the email setting is different from accessing internet. I haven't figure it out how to combine the two. Do let me know if you able to resolve this issue or don't have the same problem.

my HTC weather still doesn't work. oh well.
i don't have problems with my exchange email. what are you trying to do?

still not working

Now the $5.99 plan is only for WAP pages and generally a selected group by T-Mobile I think. I assume the accuweather is HTML or XML.
However the Unlimited PDA plan should work at $19.99. Can anyone confirm that that works?

The only thing that hasn't worked for me with the $5.99 plan is HTC Weather. SPB Weather and WeatherPanel both work great for me.

theres a great free program to get weather on your today screen its called weather to go, and can be found here

There is a patch to make it work:

having trouble using web2go / tzones on wing?

I am having trouble trying to use web2go/tzones on my wing. I got 9.99 web2go plan and when i try to visit any site using internet explorer i always get a message that I don't have the right type of internet plan and I need to upgrade it in order to use internet on my wing. I have used both wap.voicestream.com and epc.tmobile.com with and without proxy 216.155.165.50:8080 it seems like tmobile systems are recognizing my phone type and not letting me use web2go on my wing. I cannot even update weather on my phone. Is there any additional settings I can use or anything else I can do to get web2go working. I only need data plan for very light browsing so I don't want to sign up for expensive plans.
Thanks

If you have web2go, you can NOT use epc, you have to use wap.
On my Wing, under Connections:
Name it something
Modem type is Cellular Line GPRS
Access point name is wap...
User, pass, domain is all blank
Remove any type of proxy settings.
It may just be easier to delete everything you have now and just add that.
Hope that helps.

T-Mobile Data Hack & epc.tmobile.com
I continue to use T-Mobile Web at $5.99 a month and I just installed Ivan's Windows Mobile 6.5 Alpha 11 and added the new APN - epc.tmobile.com and it works just fine. In fact, when I installed his ROM the first time I had no problems accessing GPRS, but the next time I installed it, I couldn't access the internet. Under Connections 6.5 had "wap.voicestream.com" , "[email protected]" and "[email protected]". It was there I added the new APN and ran IE6 Mobile. All that said, if there is a difference other than the price between T-Mobile Web and web2go, I don't know. Before all the changes were made to data plans, I assumed T-Mobile Web was unlimited and I use the hell out of it when I was at work listening to then XM radio and SkyFM. I do know over on MyT-Mobile as on the Wing you can monitor the amount of data used, whether they're enforcing a FAP on the new data plans, I simply don't know. I've never had any problems with my plan and have noted the new APN is faster than the old voicestream wap. Take care!

have sed all ways of web2go apn connections internet2 epc etc. As of today when I try to visit a website, it redirect me to wipcore.t-mobile.com or something like that and it says that I must subscribe to the webConnect but why would I want to pay more and do that? Any help/ideas what I can do?

Any way to fully enable wap for applications on x10??

Hey everyone!
i was just wondering if there is any way to enable wap for applications in x10?
we can only use the main browser through wap...!
we can't use timescape or facebook or ebuddy or marketplace, track id or any other application.
any solution for this?
Thanks

By WAP you mean GPRS connection right? I'm using it for everything except Youtube when WiFi off
Have you set the GPRS setting? Or just do auto settings under mobile network settings?

I read on an other forum that there were people who had the same problem.
As I like to buy the x10, I'm really curious what might cause this. Unfortunally I haven't got a reaction on my question.
So I you find a solution, can you post it here?
Thx

no, by wap i mean wap. Gprs is a complete different thing. In my country GPRS service cost 25$ for 250mb only.
wap is already unlimited for 5$ only. And i was using wap connection on my iphone (browser, opera mini, push/email, ebuddy, marketplace/itunes).
Now i cant use WAP with any of these applications! only the default browser is enabled. any solution ? :s

GPRS is a connection type, like WCDMA or CSM.
WAP is more like HTML, a data type. The default android browser can't display WAP formatted pages.
Do you mean dial up internet?

Wap is a gprs connection that uses a proxy server with a port: 80 or 8080
it is clear now ?

If you are with Rogers would you mind giving me a hand how to set it up for WAP on the default browser? Just a list of the settings will do. I tried different APN settings from various online sources and the settings from my old W810 but I couldn't even get browsing to work! I tried setting Opera Mini to use HTTP instead and of course nothing works. The unlimited browsing only plan I have is simply a waste at the moment. Thanks!
EDIT: after trying a few things I was able to get the default browser working... but no, the other apps don't work with WAP... not even if I set Opera Mini to use HTTP.

ok, i was having this problem too and i found a way around it.
you have to go to your APNs and edit the APN you are using.
go to the port tag (should be labeled as 80) and erase it making it blank.
save>restart your phone, everything should work fine.

Tried this and only the default browser works...

I have experienced the same issues as described above,
if the default browser is working correctly however stand alone apps fail it may be the APN used has restrictions disabling the use of non-browser data traffic, commonly networks will have a minimum of 3 APNs, e.g WAP, MMS, and Internet.
On this basis I would recommend you ask you provider for the details of thier internet APN (commonly used when using your phone as a modem or email account access) and test accordingly.. if everything works this would confirm restrictions are in place, and a requirement to use an unrestricted APN for full functionality.
As noted different APNs may have differnt charging structures, hence the limitations sometimes when using wap apn access.

The port for my APN (Japanese version) was left blank by default, but I couldn't access my hosted email and website on the X10. Every other website and email worked fine. When I added 80 as the port, I can now access my hosted email and website without a problem.
I'm happy that this seems to have fixed it, but does anybody know why setting the port to 80 worked for me but gave problems for others?

had simualr problem ... calt my x1 support they said that i need to turn on roaming and then it workt .. this is becouse i use tele2 and they dont have there own network they only rent it from netcom so you need to turn on roaming that can be found in settings >wirreles network>mobile network (can have aother name ..my mobile is in norwegiang .. )try that,
