Dream on 2.99 T-zones data plan partially working
Hello - I was wondering if anyone else there is still on the 2.99 T-zones data plan or 5.99 data plan with the dream. I put in the wap.voicestream.com APN and the proxy so now the browser works but no email or google maps or anythign else.
With epc.tmobile.com I have no data.
Anyone else seeing the same results?
This is weird becuase on my unlocked iphone everything works great with epc.tmobile.com

I hope T-Mobile shuts off all of these free riders
were not free riders were just people who are smart enough to make the system work for us. If your in an engineering position and your able to get the same effect from a lower costing material, you would be stupid not to, and most likely fired. A person who takes tax breaks when hes paying his taxes is not stupid, but he is essentially doing the same thing we are. dont hate just because we are able to pay less for the same result you are getting. thats just my 2 cents, and im hoping the tzones plan will work on the dream as it has on my wing, 8525 and Dash.

So you're saying T-Zones will be on 3G? Sorry, but I am fully aware on how to do this. Nothing to do with ignorance. The system isn't "working" for you and your analogies are far off.
"If you can steal a big screen TV and pay the employee 100 bucks to look the other way, why pay full price for it" would be a much better analogy.
But either way, it may work for awhile longer at 2G speeds. I am sure that it won't be indefinite though. T-Mobile knows what phone you're using by it's IMEI. They're not stupid and will figure out your "black box" method. Would be awesome if they back-charged you for theft of service.

Soo you can still use the brower and it will be at 3G speed with the only 5.99 trick ? if i can get this confirmed i may get the G1 =] im on a T-Mo Wing now =]
Edit: My guess is with time there will be a way to use the Maps software as well.. i dont rly care about email, just browser and Maps ( maybe some apps that need internet access but i think that will be the easiest of all to adjust, Maybe a 3rd party maps software will emerge ?)
Edit2: Also since you guys are talking about it i guess you can get the G1 without adding the data plan (i thought it was required) can u activate the device w/o the G1 data plan ( i know it needs to connect to google acct n etc )
Thanks in advance
there are not free rider because are paying 5.99 for tzone.nothing is free in this country. and of course can't run a lot of program that the other plans where you pay more money can do.

about this plan in g1, the new phone can use 3g,edge etc. all depend of you contract with tmobil. if you plan use full internet,mail etc, you phone will have to use 3g for communicate because you are paying for that, they have in you config account that you can use this feature, BUT if you plan is simple for ej tzone the phone will work with edge only because when it try to connect with 3g speed, you plan dont have this activated.
for this 3g speed work you need two part, that the phone have 3g and that tmobil give you acces to 3g in the servers.

Or cancelled the phone service like Sprint. They cancelled the contracts of like 1000 customers last year for "getting the system to work for them", too.

Learn English and perhaps your arguments will hold water with me.
Using T-Zones will work for basic web browsing, and for gmail, and google chat. T-zone's proxy will actively block the map functions for data etc along with most of the phone features. (The proxy has many closed ports). I am running this way as we speak.
T-Mobile knows about this and they have compensated. They dont mind taking 6 dollars for simple browsing at 3g speeds since you wont barely register on their network. They are already offering such a plan in the UK for a similar price anyways. (yes I am running at 3g speeds for 6 dollars) but my phone is at 30 percent functionality.
If you want to simply browse the web and check your g1 mail then this will work and I am running this way but you will lose out on many of the phone features(actually alot of them) MOST PORTS ARE CLOSED on t-zones.
Anyways have fun.

well so much for $20 for unlimited GPRS from t-mobile...
it's now FREE!!
I just found out T-Mobile has free unlimited GPRS.
The thing is, it's limited to webbrowsing and POP email.
If you pay $0, you get access to ports 80, 110, and 25. it's supposed to be wap only but it accesses http sites as well.
downside: cant access ssl, ftp, instant messenger, etc (anything that uses other ports). for that, you have to pay the $20 per month.
i just dumped my $20/month plan this evening cause i can do without those other ports, is it wooth $20/month to use IM? i dont think so. free unlimited gprs webbrowsing owns
oh yeah, and the aim client on the ppc can be set to port 80, so it works.
now i switched from internet2.voicestream.com (which stopped working for me once i called in and cancelled the $20/month data plan) to wap.voicestream.com and i still browse sites, send email, etc.
no bank site access (ssl) but bank access isn't worth $20/month, i'll wait to be on my desktop for that.

you are a... GENEOUS!! (is that how its spelled? )
now, have u figured out how to get and send MMS from pocket pc, without ordering Tzones? :roll:
MMS is no longer part of the T-Zones. With the same changes for the "Included WAP Access" also came "Unlimited Picture Messaging". They've made it where you don't have to do T-Zones for sending/receiving MMS. HOWEVER, you are charged $0.25/MMS that you send/receive. There is a promotion for $4.99/mo that gives you Unlimited Picture messaging through 12/31/04. After that date it reverts down to 50 for the $4.99.
Hope that sheds some light now on the matter.
Thanks for that info. I'm Looking forward to using it when i get my XDA II in a few days.
They won't list zero cost features on the site. All phone plans come with the free WAP access now. If your phone isn't working with it, contact Customer Care and ask them if it's on your account. They will add it i'm sure.
It was originally setup to allow customers to download ringtones and wallpaper without signing up for the monthly fee. Seems like this is a small little suprise for us tho!
I tried it and is not working for me. Are you sure that I can just call CS and they'll add it to my account?. I don't want to spoil people's luck. Maybe is an oversight from them
Ive used both, and if your not going to use the gprs for anything too overbaring go 4 it, but with the wap access, it limits alot, plus is significantly slower
btw: im sure TMO will charge u for sumthing extra sooner or later
(pps) (i have a feeling there are undercover TMO employees spying) :!:
you need to use the address wap.voicestream.com
it's not slower, it's the same speed.
it is limited in that you only get web browsing and emails (ports 25, 80, 110 and 143 for smtp, http, pop, and imap respectivly), if you want all the ports (for instant messaging, ftp, ssl, etc) you need to get the $20/month data plan.

so then why was it that when i was downloading a 2mb file it would take 15-20 minz....not it takes 5-7 minz :?:
OK, I tried and it keeps not working for me, I called T-mo and they say that that is only for regular handsets, that for us, we would need a data plan, they even xferred me to tier2 people, (which were clueless) and he said that in order for me to take advantage of the internet, I have to pay.
I said for the to reset my settings in their end, but they said that they have nothing to reset, since I don't have any data plan.
I have tried all, changed the internet2.voicestream.com for wap.voicestream.com, try making a new connection, with all those settings, and nothing. Anybody know any clues?
try internet3.voicestream.com
-arebelspy
internet3.voicestream.com is for their VPN option ($19.99/mo)
internet2.voicestream.com is for their non-VPC option ($19.99/mo)
wap.voicestream.com is for their WAP service (all other devices)
I thought I also saw somewhere the address wap.myvoicestream.com. Now I can't remember which one works.
internet3 has worked for some people without data plans (only the free wap service). no idea why.
try them all to try to make it work, lol.

what are the instructions for setting this up? I just opened IE and it works but I wonder if im being charged per minute?
Nope, T-Mobile no longer counts MBs, minutes, anything. Every plan has free browsing (free access to ports 25, 80, 110, and 143).

I swear! I didnt think T-mobile could get any ... more ... better than AT&T. I was, once again, wrong.
the pge http://wap.myvoicestream.com does not seem to come up on PocketIE - a post above says that PIE can handle wml pages...
So, is the address incorrect, or is it PIE that cannot handle WAP?

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

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.....

yup cuz while we have unlimited they're gonna be charged by their usage and its def not cheaper.
I just called T-Mobile to add the $5.99/month T-Zones web plan for my Wing, however the rep told me that this plan is not available for accounts with the wing phone. She then tried to sell me the $19.99 data plan, which I declined.
After paging through MyTMoblie account, I found that nowhere does it even mention the $5.99 plan.
To add the plan, you must click the "Not your phone?" link in the upper right hand corner of your MyTMoblie account after logging in. Change your phone to something which will be compatible with the tzones, I picked the RAZR V3. This doesn't give you an upgrade phone, you're not buying anything, this is just TMobile's way of tracking which phone you are using.
Now under the "My Account" tab, choose "Change serves" and add the $5.99 tzones web plan!
Hope I can help someone else out!
i dont think there the same speed but i could be wrong

What are the same speed? The RAZR and the Wing?
It doesn't matter, the Tzones works for any phone configured with the correct proxy, but some reps want you to go for the $20/month full internet plan. If you heavily use the net on your phone, then maybe the full plan would be best for you, but if you are only a lite user, the 5.99 is much more practical for e-mail, weather, etc.
i have the 5.99 plan and i cannot use email or weather.
how do you use it?

You can use the search button here to look up t-mobile Proxy. There have been numerous threads on how to set up the proxy in Windows Mobile
I have been using this proxy for a long time.. I started with tzones back when it was 4.99... glad I save a whole dollar every month.. gonna be rich soon!
Any way to get the T-zones wap browser back once you've flashed your Wing? T-Mobile has closed the proxy hole, and now I'd like to test out T-MobileWeb and see if I like it or if I should drop the $5.99
yea, my wing wont use t-zones... every website comes back with a can't b displayed or w/e it say's....
any1 with us service that uses it till this very day fine??
cuz i got it taken off my account... wondering if i should give it another try
It's been working for me since November 2007, I am in the Northeast USA.
Other than not being able to access Hotmail/MSN Messenger/HTC Home weather, everything else works.
I have been using the T-zones proxy for over 1 year in MN with no problem. I have flashed numerous roms in that time and have no problem setting it back up each time. I also use internet quite often and don't find it to be much, if any slower than the 20 dollar service.
Also, if you flash Trans Open-Touch V6.5 and use throttle launcher the weather will work properly even with the proxy. I have not been able to get it to work with HTC home though.
Well it seems tmobile finally (as of 24hrs ago) blocked the sidekick plan from being used on different phones like the G1 and the iPhone.. on the iPhone forums theyre talking about something that can make it so the IMEI shows as another so I wanted to know if anything like that would be possible on my phone? I still have a sidekick and data works fine on it with my sim but that phone is a POS and more tightly closed than any other phone on this planet. But if I need its IMEI then i have it and please dont tell me to go and pay over 100% more for a G1 plan.. that will be absolute last resort.. BTW the phone still shows as its on a 3G network but everything times out that has to do with data. My Gfs iphone thats on the same plan does the same exact thing but her email works perfectly, I researched and it seems all iphones with the sidekick plan are able to access email but nothing else, i cant access anything.. I really dont want to give up my $15/month unlimited text and data plan
No one else using a sidekick plan? It seems whats actually going on is that tmobile block the hiptop.t-mobile.com apn from using the 8080 port (http), everything works fine for sidekicks because they run on theyre own servers and dont need this. Anyone know a way around this? My email (not gmail) works because it does not use that port to check it Im guessing.. can anyone help me figure a way around this :{
AFAIK, IMEI changing is illegal so I don't thinkl you'll get much help here.

It is in some places changing the IMEI is illegal, but there are guides on unlocking phones by switching the IMEI in the sections for other phones on XDA.
Well it seams that the IMEI change wont do anything so now what i need is a work around to the http port is there a way i can access anything http without using the 8080 port?

LOL doesnt work it needs that port to browse the internet im guessing? i dont know but my hotmail email works fine im guessng because its another port and on iphones same thing along with some apps that use special ports but it seems that the 8080 port which is tmobiles http one is blocked?
Tmo just cut me off too. ... just when I was getting used to the low price. But I do think its just port restrictions on server side. I was thinking tunneling or a custom rom to bypass would be a possible solution. But hey deep down I knew that it would end sooner or later. It was almost too good to be true

People with iphone are getting through with just setting up a vpn although their connection is slow pob not to slow since they only had edge .. i was used to that 3g speed.. How would a custom rom be able to work around it?
OMG thank you!!!
I sound crazy but I just was searching the forums for this and made a post. My sidekick prepaid sim no longer works and I was left scratching my head. Any solutions?
Please please hit me up at [email protected] or post back...
ok i hope i didnt jynx it for the people who figured out this solution. for all yall who have non g1 data plans one way to get atleast internet browsing access would be to use Opera browser. its available in market and is installable if you have a rooted fone and have wifi access to dl it. google sync or other apps wont work but atleast you could surf the web. proving that a g1 rom mod to use socket connections for data via non-g1 plans would work. hopefully our developers could think of something. LETS GO COOKS LETS GO! this your chance to stick it to the man and corperate america!

Thats the VPN i used. The only downside is you need cyanogens 3.9.7 rom and when your using browser some weird text is overlayd over the whole page looks the the page coding r something... But i only really use aim on edge so im good!
Edit:
Also Use Steel as your browser. It will get rid of the text. Make sure u use Iphone for the user agent!
Speeds are what you would expect out of edge.

Yea i had seen that one before... so i changed my plan to the shadows i tested it before on another sim and put the sim in my phone worked perfect.. off course when i cancelled my grandfathered sidekick plan and put the shadow on my sim... it no longer works at all ...keep telling me i need a subscription an the vpn wont work either
Thats unfortunate about the shadow plan. Guess what we need to do is appeal to devs to make a modded rom to help us.
An Hotspot shield looks like its just for the iphone. I have a g1 so how do I try the VPN stuff out?

(NOBODY POST THIS ON T-MOBILE FORUMS WE DONT WANT THIS FIX TO GET..."FIXED!")
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(This is only a temp fix im not sure how long it will work!)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Make sure u have the hiptop.t-mobile.com apn set and the edge icon is visable. You probally have to select the "only use 2g networks" option. Im not sure i dont have 3g in my area but i do have that option selected.)
1. Push menu on the phone
2. Then settings
3. Then wireless Controls
4. Then VPN settings
5. Push Add VPN
6. Select Add L2TP VPN
7. Enter the following info
VPN name: HotspotShield
Set VPN server: 64.55.144.10
8. Push Menu
9. Push Save
10. Then click on HotspotShield
Username: ipykhv
Password: ipykhv
11. Push Connect
It should say connected and you will get a ongoing notification with a time thats counting.
If you get that data should work fully.
The only problem is if you use the regular browser you will get weird codes overlaid over any webpage you load.
So you can download "steel" from the market and go to steels settings and for the user agent set it to iPhone, the codes should disappear!
I can confirm that the VPN method works. Just PLEASE dont post this on tmobile sites and similar. Lets keep this trick going!!!
do maps and all that work then with the vpn set like that? how bout apps like where or sherpa that use data?
OK guys,i paid for plan TMOBILE WEB $9.99
with this plan i set up the APN is epc.tmobile.com for any fone like IPHONE,ORIGINAL HERO it work like a charm,but how come with MY TOUCH and use with HERO rom i cant do that,its always show me the screen upgrade to 24.99 plan
if you dont believe what img oign to say, load up the mytouch wtih the factory rom and see what happens.
t-mobile has a list of imei's for the mytouches and forces them onto the 24.99 plan.
Strange.
Verify your APNs and perhaps upgrade your plan.
You could even "claim" to T-Mobile that you have certain features without plan information access and they might provide you with the "internet" setting necessary to launch a "WAP" browser.

My grandfathered $7.99 t-zones worked with my mytouch for the first day and it gave me that message. Was going to activate it anyway, but just forgot. My friend told me that his iphone no longer works with EPC access point in hawaii
