Internet Settings US and T-zones

OUTZ was kind enough to provide me with his settings for accessing tzones with 2003SE, but it does not work with 2003. I had, at one point in time, internet access for 4.99 us. Speed was 9.6 kbps, but that's fine, I don't use it that much. Anyway, I was curious if you all would share your internet settings (T-zones or not)(US only) as such....

I'm sure there are some other chepo's out there who don't need/want to spend 20$/month, and it sucks that we can't do it anymore. T-mobile changed up thier system for that devilish 63xx :twisted: .BOFH (plural)

AIM USING PROXY?????

Hi,
I have T-mobile's TZONE and using proxy to get to the web and it works fine thank God, specialy after they removed the DIRECT WAP, but anyways, I cant seem to get AIM or any other IM to work with proxy, did anyone get it to work? is it possible?
I know one of the solution is to get the $29.99 plan from T-MOBILE but thats no fun...LOL

no luck here yet with Verichat and Cingular's proxy either.

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
start
settings
connections
connections
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
click advanced
http: 216.155.165.50:8080
wap: 216.155.165.50:9201
secure wap: 216.155.165.50:9201
socks (blank)
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.
- cheers

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:

CABs for T-mobile U.S. GPRS and MMS settings

I put together these cabs for T-mobile data plans. I have the $5.99 plan so I haven't tested the other ones, but people have told me they work.
the $5.99 cab automatically sets up the proxy.
All the cabs set up connections so that GPRS is not used unless no other connections (WIFI or Activesync) are available.
MMS (for ArcSoft MMS 4.2.8.1 but it probably works for other versions) sets size limit to 600k and will not resize pictures (I think T-mobile limits MMS data to 300k).

Cool, members are always looking for tmob setup cab's!
So, gprs internet2.voicestream.com is part of the 29.99 plan cab?

Yes:
29.99 = internet2.voicestream.com
39.99 = internet3.voicestream.com
I think they must've changed prices...

Which one do I use if I have the unlimited data for $20/month?
Thanks

I'm now on that $20 plan and have been using the internet2 connection...

This was the ONLY way I could get the 5.99 t-zones plan to work on my windows mobile 6.1 tilt. Great work man!

Close, but....

Well, it half works. Before using your CAB, I couldn't get Opera Mobile 8.65 to connect at all through the proxy on my HTC Touch Cruise. Now, I can make normal connections in Opera through the proxy, but still can't get HTTPS to connect. No problems connecting with wifi.
UPDATE 10/29/07: I had occasion to revisit these cabs when my friendly neighborhood IT group screwed up my network connections with some automated script they forced down my phone. After running tmobyjoe599.cab again, things were all fixed. I also had no problems with HTTPS and Opera.

I think t-mobile blocks the port on the $5.99 plan. HTTPS uses port 443. You could try some different ports and if you find one that works, let me know and I'll update the CAB.

The settings for Tmo's proxy are:
HTTP 216.155.165.50:8080
WAP 216.155.165.50:9201
Secure WAP 216.155.165.50:9203
Socks 216.155.165.50:1080​216.155.165.50:1080
and this is what my system shows. The Tmo proxy is unauthenticated, so I tried to test against it using my laptop and wifi. Manually setting the FF3 HTTP proxy to 216.155.165.50:8080, and leaving all the other proxy options blank, I had no trouble bringing up HTTPS pages.

maybe it has something to do with the access point (wap.voicestream.com)

That's not really an access point. It's a conventional proxy which serves to restrict most anything but web or mail access, but otherwise doesn't restrict traffic.

Would someone kindly explain what the above cabs are for? I don't want to make any assumptions, but do the cabs provise software to make an unlocked HTC Wizard work as if its a T-Mobile device at the various rate plans - assuming your sim has that plan?
Is the $5.99 the prepaid plan?
I just bought used MDA and am using my prepaid SIM. Having trouble with tzones working - though admittedly it doesn't do much.
Thanks in advance for the help.

tried but didnt seem to work on vs 24 rickywatts 6.1

does this still work?? i have a tmobile wing with touch it rom

The only way to find out if it works for YOU is to try it. Please let us know....

great work!!
Works like a charm! I thought they might have shut down the proxy for the 5.99 plan. Is there a MMS cab that I didn't see? Again thanks alot.

Should I delete all my existing proxies?
I have proxy settings in
settings..Connections....Proxy
should I remove them before applying the tmobyjoe CAB?
what is the "new-inet:1159" proxy server in the Kavana ROM? Is that just rubbish or what?
Also, I don't understand why there are so many proxies and connections. Is there something I can read to understand the relative significance of
"work" "TMobile MMS" "Tmobile Data" "WAP Network" "Secure WAP Network" and "The Internet"
and then the various proxies that route to these various networks?
I don't get why it is so complicated and why I need so many networks and proxies and so on.

i can recieve my yahoo emails giving me cannot connect with this settings?

i can recieve my yahoo emails giving me cannot connect with this settings? i had it working but now its not connecting to recive my emails

Hey everyone. I've added the $5.99 service to my account and I've tried both manually entering the settings and I've tried the CAB for the $5.99 service. No joy...
I can't download email and when trying to browse the web at all GPRS connects, the page tries to load and then I get the following error:
"Error: Requested content
'www.google.com/' cannot be accessed.
You do not have access to the site."
What am I doing wrong?
Also, in the GPRS Settings do I want PAP Auth. or CHAP Auth. selected? It's on PAP Auth.
I live in Denver, CO, if it makes any difference.
Thanks!
EDIT: Interestingly enough it's working now... of course something else had to break, I can't connect to the net via USB now. No biggie, never used that anyway.

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,
