If any one could help I would appreciate it. I have the verizon 6900 and i have unlocked it successfully, but I cant seem to get the internet to work. What do I need to put in the settings or what do I need to do to get it to work? Anyone who has gotten the internet to work, if you could give me a hand I would really appreciate it.

Yes....just read the forum, you will find here as much info as possible
One good tip: Don't play with stuff you know nothing about (I mean Roms), it could brick your device!!
Unlocking the phone will do 2 things;
1 - let you use it on any GSM network but you will need to add the data plan to access GPRS or Edge (the WAN).
2 - Allow you to flash different low level programs onto the device. Think of it this way, on your phone now you can set up an email service on Tmobile but when you move to Cingular that Tmobile program will still be there but useless. Now you can flash a new Rom which has some Cingular specific programs but you have to be careful because if you mess it up, you MDA becomes as they say a brick.
This is a great forum for learning about these things, try some of the simple things like Today screens or phone dialer screens. After a little you take the plunge like this newbie and flash a new rom, overclock it and generally just make it more useable than it is now.
okay i went to the cingular store and showed the guy the phone and he said it can work for regular phone calls and texting, but it wont be able to use the web and AIM, etc.
so when you guys say i have to add the data plan do you mean i gotta install somethin seperate to the phone? or do i gotta add the plan through cingular.
because the guy says i cant use the internet with it, so thats why i ask if i need to downloard somethin separate to the phone
You would expect that the guy behind the counter would know but he's probably clueless about what your asking him.
Cingular's network is GSM just like Tmobile. The data service is called either GPRS, Edge or the next generation 3G & you need to configure the phone to access that. I don't know the access point name for cingular but you should be able to find it some where in this forum, on Tmobile it's wap.voicestream.com. It's analogous to logging onto your wired ISP, you may or may not need a password. Once configured the phone will log you on and then you'll be able to access the net or email etc.
Worse case is you can flash a Cingular specific rom.
wait so how do you configure the phone for edge?
because when i went 2 settings then connections, it had GPRS Setting
Noob here. I just got an unlocked Wing. I am an AT&T subscriber. Phone works great, but is there a way to use the AT&T media net features on the T-Mobile device? Can I make the AT&T network see the device as an AT&T device? I found an old thread with the same kind of question, but no real answers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I believe you have to go to at&t website and configure the options manually unless somebody creates an at&t rom, otherwise everything must be done manually
I'm completely making this up right now ... BUT:
Did you just pop your ATT sim card into the Tmobile Wing? And that's it?
I think for any other features to work, you would need to call ATT up and give them the IMEI and other information from your phone which would make it work, since that's how they detect what type of phone you have server-side and return the information they think is pertinent to your phone...
If youre phone isn't "regsitering" ... or its trying to send your phone the info that should have gone to your old phone that's on the account ... or it may not be sending anything at all.
I suggest, call ATT and explain the situation. I seriously doubt they're going to say anything... since you're still paying THEM every month.
Once they have the necessary info from ur phone, it should take 15 min to provision or something and boom ... everything should work.
Have someone made a cab with those ATT features you are trying to use? Maybe over in the kaiser forum who are mainly all ATT users bc of the Tilt
So my situation is that I have a Mytouch3g (not fender) that I had sent in from the States and would like to use on Wind Mobile in Calgary, Alberta. When it arrived I had it subsidy unlocked and now I'm stuck with the google registration bit but it wont connect and when i looked at the available apn's there weren't any. I can add them but I dont know any of the details for Wind. If anyone knows or if im totally screwed on the google part and need to do something else to get this up and running, any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.
**Follow up **
So I figured it out but in the event someone else has these issues heres how it went down:
Factory Reset on the phone leaves no APN's but if you tap on the Menu button you can create a new one
For Wind Mobile the APN is internet.windmobile.ca and thats it
Give it a name and save it
Activate it by touching the radio button
And 3g is up and running
Ya I know its simple but I googled the google registration thing and I came up with all kinds of nonsense and I didnt know whether I had a real problem or not.
Thanks fer lookin
happy days i though as everything seemed to be fine that is until i put in a sim card.
will not connect to network no matter what i try!
DO i have to request settings from the network or should the phone get them when i insert the sim automatically???

Good morning, johnnyboy4711.
You can try to get the settings going to /Settings/Connections/Connection Setup.
Choose your country and your operator and may be this will help you.
Greetings!
tried reset after your advice
still no radio signal after selecting network,
really confused!!!
Is it just sat at searching?
Interested in this as it relates to something I am looking into.
Can you get the device info as tit asked in your other thread.
Also, can you think/remember what exactly you did on the flash to change rom? And list it in 1.2.3 etc? This may help me figure out where something could haev gone, but I can't promise anything.
Hardware wise, have you dropped it/sat on it in your pocket etc? was all working successfully before hand?
Are you still able to get bluetooth and wifi? Do you know what your original rom was? Do you have a backup you can restore to test if it works again?
So i purchased a sprint s4 off somebody of craigslist. I asked if the imei was clean and they said yes. They seem like an honest person so i didnt bother to check the imei until i was on the way home. Turns out the fing **** was lying and no i am stuck with this phone. So i found this post on how someone with a similar situation got it to work on domestic carriers that are GSM. I tryed it and it was working flawlessly i was very happy. So i took out the sim card i was using to test and put it back in my normal phone LG G2 and the next day when i put the sim in the S4 again it stopped working. I did not change anything and it is just not working. I will link the post i followed hopfully someone could help me out.
