HTC Elf on Tmobile USA? - Networking

Picked up an unlocked Elf. Having a lot of fun tinkering and learning but have yet to be able to get it to connect to my T-mobile data plan. Any suggestions?? I'm a total noob to Windows based devices, been with other fruit flavors for a while (blackberry, apple...)
Also, by chance anyone know the POP settings for Verizon email, thought I had them, but doesnt seem to want to connect either
Thanks in advance

AT&T on the Wing?

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

[Q] Data On Android HD2

Hey, I need a little help.
I am currently on pre-paid with my HD2 with Android on it, and i wanted to get some prepaid data for a month while i go interstate (300mb). But the problem is, i dont know if i will be able to get it with different Roms and Radios that i have installed. Will I be able to use data? (Im in Australia and on Virgin if that helps.)
Also.... I was looking aroud the forums for a fix for MMS after i found out i couldnt send any, how do change APN and all the guides to fix APN have settings to do with T-Mobile, will it still work for me???
One more thing..... Once i get data on my HD2 can i connect it to my laptop when travelling and use the phones internet on the laptop (with bluetooth or the usb cord?)?
Thanks Alot!!!!

Activating My Imagio

I just bought a HTC Imagio off of ebay & need some help. I do realize What I am going to ask cannot be discussed hear but if someone could give me some help via PM I would greatly appreciate it. If you have a Pay-Pal account I would be willing buy you a couple whoever a few cups of coffee or a case of beer. What I am hoping to accomplish is making the Imagio think its my Vogue on VZW by yes changing the Imagio’s ESN. I know this can be done but not talked about on here. I guess this could be slightly illegal.. I should be able to use my Imagio on VZW’s network without a data plan especially since I didn’t buy the phone from VZW.
I am currently using a Vogue which is activated under my companies VZW account without a data plan. I don’t really need the data plan either. This is because I can’t get my work email through my phone anyway. My company doesn’t consider Window Mobile as part of their corporate standard. I have survived this long without a data plan & don’t need on now. My laptop does have a wireless card anyway.
Also the GPS on my Vogue is unreliable too. Onetime it will lock within a few seconds & the next time it might take minutes. I have been playing with the Imagio for the last couple of days & it locks within 10 seconds every time when using TomTom.

My Imagio has been unlocked (not by me) hopefully this isn’t a problem to accomplish my goal.
This has been successfully completed. I am willing to help out anyone else too.
Activation of HTC Imagio
Please inform me on how you got the HTC Imagio w/o the mandatory data plan! I've been wanting to get the phone, but could never figure out how to have it activated without the data plan. I have a data restriction on Microsoft Kin TwoM but can still send/receive picture messages.
Help doing the same thing

Hello,
Would you be able to school me on how to do this? I have an LG Dare whose touch screen stopped working, and I just got an Imagio as a present, but I only use phones for the simple stuff, strictly picking up calls and some texts, so I don't see the use of a data plan. I would greatly appreciate it if you can help me out. My email is [email protected]. Thank you for your time and help.

T-Mobile data weirdness

So I'm on the T-Mobile Pay As You Go plan as a Gold reward member. A few months ago I switched to the Samsung Exhibit II 4G because I was getting sick of my HTC Touch Pro2. My TP2 was a Sprint branded one that was unlocked and flashed with an unlocked radio that would let me use it on T-Mobile (the device is dual-mode CDMA/GSM). The weird thing is that I could access certain sites on that device, like the mobile version of Yahoo, that I can't access on my Exhibit II. Is it because T-Mobile recognizes my current device and is restricting access to it? It might be but I was also able to access the mobile version of Yahoo when I was toying around with an HTC HD2 (when it was running Android through MAGLDR). My plan shouldn't have any data at all but I can still access that site if I switch back to my TP2. Any one know what's going on?
Does it just flat out not load, or does it say you don't have a data connection?
It redirects me to a page saying I don't have data.

Hi, I think you have answered your own question. And that you found some kind of loophole. Obviously if you want data you should upgrade to a plan with data.
