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?
Hello, i'm new to the forums. This is my first post but i've been reserching all over and cannot find a solution to this question I have...
I've been considering buying a HTC HD2 from my friend and unlocking it to use with my AT&T sim card (the phone is currently locked to T-Mobile).
After I unlock it I am planning on installing Android 2.2 onto the HTC. My current phone is a Samsung Solstice from AT&T. I have unlimited SMS/MMS but I don't have a data plan. I was wondering once i get the HD2, unlock it, then install Android 2.2 on it, if I can disable data but I've heard if u disable data then Multimedia Messaging (MMS) doesn't work... (I cant afford a data plan and wont need to browse the web away from wifi so i'm fine without data plan.) I would REALLY like to keep MMS working fine but without using data. is there anyway i can enable MMS and not data? I would call AT&T and asked them to block all data access except MMS but i'm afraid if i tell them that i'm using a HD2 (smart phone) they'll force me to pay for data and that would not be good. can someone please help me disable/block data but continue using MMS, all help/advice is appreciated, thanks in advanced
plzzzz i would really like to know this
BUMP
As my understanding, data is use when sending and receiving mms, but you are not charged for the data because you have sms/mms plan, maybe there is limit how many kb per message, if you over that they may charge you the extra.
I'm not sure about ATT, but Tmobile if I accidently go to internet, they tell me that I don't have data plan, and ask if I want the data or something...., I just click cancel, I never been charged for the data.
I am using the HD2 on ATT, I can tell you for a fact there is no way to block data and allow MMS, MMS uses data to send picture and video msgs. Calling ATT will not help either. As long as you have not upgraded your phone thru them they cannot force you to get a data plan, if they attempt to, you can tell them you want to be put on a pay per use, if they say no, demand a supervisor explain you have a wifi and you dont want the plan, a little pushing will get you want you want.
Also ATT cannot block data and not MMS from their end either, just not possible.
Go into apn settings. If you have only one for data and mms, then edit it, and right at the end "apn type" probably says "default " or perhaps "*" or maybe "default,supl,mms "
Change that to say just "mms"
If you have two entries one will be for default,supl and will have a on off toggle, the second will be for mms and won't have a toggle. Just toggle off the data one or edit out the default in apn type.

Hi Sam, just found you on here ad wanted to say thank you so much for the Nand Android flash, its like having a new phone, I owe you a few pints. Ian, Stev's ffriend.
Hey Everyone,
My MMS messages are showing up on my ATT account as data usage, not MMS and I'm being charged the $0.01 per kb for them. Anyone know why this could be?
Thanks,
Cole
MMS is actually data Mobile operators usually have a separate APN for MMS, so they can make a difference between Internet data and MMS data. You should check what APN you have for MMS and change it accordingly
Haha, I know it is data
At the risk of being dumb, where would I find the APN for ATT's MMS?
Thanks for the help man!
holy crap.. I have t-mobile and i use the regular epc.t-mobile.com
havnt checked data usage but i never knew there was one for mms and for normal internet
No ideas, anyone?
Hi there!
On CM7 and Oxygen there is no way to send MMS without turning ON "Data enabled" option. If you have send MMS before you have turned "Data enabled" to ON it is just says "Sending..." and it cannot send MMS until you delete and rewrite MMS. ( It's just pisses me off. Anyone has a solution for this?
MIUI has a simple solution. It send MMS even when you turn "Data enabled" OFF.
Is there a way to accomplish this on CM7 or Oxygen?
Brgds,
S.
Same at me. I would appriciate if this could solved.
Sent from my Huawei u8800 using XDA App
not possible in these roms, go figure out why....
everyone is asking for this but the devs just wont change it
Use MIUI

Who the hack is "everyone" ... i didn't find anyone complains about it thus i started this thread
I am using MIUI but also i want to try all other good ROM's out there. It is such pity that this functionality isn't built-in in CM7 and Oxygen
"everyone" means no one can send MMS in Oxygen and CM7 without Enabling Data.
Was this the “hack” clear to you or I need to make a drawing out of it?
And if you read more and more carefully you will realise that many other people complain about the same.
This is not a bug or an issue in these roms, is just how they are!!!!

I have searched the forum but didn't find "anyone" complaining about this "feature"
The Hack
Looks like you didn't search very well.
For instance I complained a LOT and many times. And there’s also others.
But why you are so bother about reading other peoples complains? This won't make MMS work the way you want now.
This is one of the big reasons I don’t use those roms!
If this is really important to you, use other rom.

I think there aren't any other threads such as yours so not to worry about this.
This issue was discussed in the respective rom threads.
If you look there you will find it
If your network uses a separate APN for data and mms you can disable the data APN and leave the mms one active. There are lots of apps that can do this in the market, APNdroid is one but there are plenty of others,
You can do it manually as well by going to Settings => Wireless & Networks => Mobile Networks => Access Point Names. Select the data APN and mangle the APN field, say by adding a "-" to the front of it. This will prevent your phone from using any data even when data is enabled.
If your network provider uses a single APN for both data and mms then I do not know what you can do. You could maybe try splitting the settings and put just the mms setting into a new APN.
This is one Idea. But you will also be grabbing your balls with data enable on your conscience and waiting for the bill in the end of the month....
This procedure should be automatic not manually and this is why it’s wrong.
Automatic is how it is from stock why the hell make it the other way around. It makes no sense, unless the devs think everyone as free data plans....

I do have splitted setting for MMS. One APN is for INTERENT other is for MMS. Idea is simple i don't want to enable "Data enable" setting.

You can see things this way:
If these Dev's were building official roms they wouldn't be allowed to build it this this way as wouldn't be legal.
MMS its a data service but completely different than internet data.
In my network plan, every time I enable data and I start using it costs me €1,15/day (10MB included). If I exceed the 10MB each additional MB cost 16cents.
Each MMS I SEND costs me 38cents.
Well, if to send AND RECEIVE MMS I have to enable data each MMS will cost much more than €1.
After this explantation, the obligation of enabling data to use MMS service still makes any sense to you???
Does not need to be a genius to understand this.
Even it is, why if making a rom you change the stock settings for the worst?

It will make sense to me if devs of CM7 or Oxygen have benefits from Telecom providers ... but i guess they don't. So please stop asking me if it is make sens or not ... these are CUSTOM ROM's anyway. Sure it make sens to us end users.
Raping a chicken will make sense to perverts.
For normal and sane people this kind of behavior doesn’t make sense at all.
So, yes you are correct, “sense” is not the correct word to define what is correct from what isn’t… lololl

Just one more vote for this non sense situation!
Mesnati is bullshiting about "just saying for saying"... but is doing exactly that.
If MMS run trough a different APN, not related with data plan apn... it is absolutely simple OS that MMS comute automatic via MMS APN.
That is obvious and shouldnd't be questionable, only if you want to discuss peanuts you fill this forum with garbage.
Other option, is that you have a unlimited data plan so you don't care about this, but that is your own question, does not have to apply to other "mortals" that have to pay for data usage and MMS usage.
Druida69 has exactly the same problem has me... If I pay 5Eur for 100MB of Data and pay 0,3Eur for each MMS, do you want me to explain you the question around this situation ?!?!? You can't get there ???
Best regards,

You don't get it ... i don't want to have this "Data enable" or "mobile data" ENABLED. It waste battery. So please don't be jealous if you don't have data unlimited data plan. Now i can understand why is that "feature" so obvious to you. For me it is not. If i want to send MMS i know that i will pay that's obvious. But why you also have to manually enable "Data enable" ??? That's what is bothering me!
No... you don't get it.
I'm not jealous, I simply don't say that our problem is stupid... just because I don't have it. If you have unlimited data plan, this is not your problem... so... don't fill the forum with garbage about nothing!
The problem, from the beggining is that, with Oxygen or CM7, to send MMS you have to activade Mobile Data. If you read the posts instead of just boring other users with your "literature" you would understood that from the start.
With original ROM we don't have to activate Mobile Data for MMS. With MIUI we don't have to activate Mobile Data for MMS.
With Oxygen or CM7, to send MMS we have to activate Mobile Data and send MMS trough that APN.
It does not make sense, just that.
