T mobile wap settings

I am trying to configure my wizard (8125 lokiwiz unlocked) to work on my tmobile data plan.I don't have the unlimited internet and hotspot plan for tmobile, i have the unlimited WAP plan. I just can't figure out how to get it to work, the tmobile tech people didnt sound experienced with the wizard but they said its possible. Do any of you know teh correct settings and how to enter them. I was able to work it out on WM2003 but WM5 is really confusing. Perhaps someone with an MDA and the similar plan could let me know what theirs is configured for.

I saw the issue of tmobile's WAP discussed I believe on howardforums.com . At least from what I remembered from the discussion was that tmobile was to be fading out its WAP service which also had unintended consequences for people using tmobile's blackberry sevices. I did however download the tmobile cab files from club-imate which placed a wap configuration for tmobile in My Work Network configurations setup. Good luck.

Bro, its simple, go to settings, connections, connections, then add a new modem connection, Then put in where it says "enter a name for the connection" T-Mobile GPRS Wap" or what ever your want. Then below select GPRS where it says select a modem. click on next after that and enter in wap.voicestream.com then click on next and then finish. You do not need to put anything else in. Thats it your are done. I have five PPC from the XDA on up and no problems on any.
Cheers,
Mike

thanks mike, hmm now the phone just says locating... if i try to load a wap site like wap.yahoo.com for instance. I am connected to the GPRS connection, its just not loading up sites.
hey eb, was that cab from an original tmobile rom, or was it part of the euro tmobile roms that was just released. I have been looking for a copy of the tmobile rom from back in nov.

The tmobile cab I got from clubimate is for the US, and as far as I can tell it is not the euro tmobile settings. I also tried the wap connect and got dumped into my GPRS connection to. The steps Mike described is how it looks in my network connections. I remember back when tmobile was voicestream and using my laptop via cellphone to connect, one had to start at voicestream's wap home page. Just a suggestion.

try a differnt AP like internet2.voicestream.com
some people have had success using that....I myself discourge this, however, it works it works...

internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com will only work if you have a tmobile unlimited internet account which is 19.99 a month not a wap account. What services are on your account?

mike you're right....i thought he had the 19.99 unlim internet plan...i think he needs a t-mo proxy for it to work....i'll google this and post back later...
okay here's what i found....i think the proxy thing is the what might be relevant..
http://www.mobilegadgetnews.com/lofiversion/index.php?t9404.html

That is correct, for the wap, and mms the proxy has to be put in. I am soooo lazy. I reflash my Universal so much, I got tired of putting the mms setting back in. LOL
Mike

hmm so after messing around with more settings, still nothing works. Perhaps its because im trying to connect to restricted WAP sites. anyone know the tzones website/homepage? Or perhaps someone that actually has the correct settings for $9.99 tzones on a WIzard can help me with the settings.

Just put out 19.99 and you will have full access!

I was told they no longer had the 19.99 plan, that it is only the 29.99 plan. What's the trick to still getting the 19.99 plan?

Dawm that includes hotspots now. I was paying 19.99 for gprs and 19.99 for hotspot service. Heh. I guess they don't have 19.99 gprs internet only now. Sucks. But thanks, I am going to call and save 10.00 a month. hehe
Mike

They are getting rid of the back door to using the WAP as online access for the PDA's. They are going to go to the full data. You will have to have the 29.99 Total Internet Plan which is unlimited data and email and hotspot. There were a lot of people paying the lower amounts and trying to use it on the PDA and it was causing issues and the data group had to try and solve them and there were things that just couldn't be solved becuase the provisiong of the WAP is different then the internet2.voicestream.com. Just pay the 30 bucks and get it all.

T-zones 5.99 plan?

If i sign up for the T-Mobile US T-zones 5.99 plan will i be able to access internet through my pocket pc or do i have to pay for the 30.00 plan?
My Phone = T-Mobile MDA US
IPL/SPL 2.26
G3
CID/SIM unlocked
Xplore 2.0 WM6 ROM

You might wanna ask T-Mobile for that? Wouldn't help ya if somebody says YES and it was not true in the end ...

Just purchase the 5.99 plan. Then edit ur existing connection and select this network connects thru proxy server and put this in the proxy box. getmorespeed.voicestream.com or getmorespeed.voicestream.net. and you will then be able to access full internet

alright thanks, now all i have to do is buy the plan.

Currently, Tmobile has unlocked their network, so you won't need to use a proxy to get online. You will have full access through the $5.99/month plan.

I've had the T-Mobile 5.99 web package for 2 years now and I've always been able to access any web page I want. It's definitely not the speediest though.

It seems that Tmobile has locked their network again. It's back to proxy 216.1551.65.50:8080 people.

Does this mean that by using this proxy, all ports are open for the web? Or only specific are allowed?

To Go
Does this work for t-mobile to go prepaid or only for contracts? i tried putting in the setting's for it and it does'nt work. and which one exactly do you have to input in the proxy server? 216.1551.65.50 or getmorespeed.voicestream.com??

This should work for both if you are paying for the T-Zones. I used to be on T-Zones and T-Mobile used to lock and unlock the ports (HTTP,FTP,POP,SMTP,etc.) from time to time. But now they have unlocked the ports. So the best way to get a cheap plan with all ports unblocked is to get the Blackberry Data Plan that costs $20. It does not have the HotSpots stuff, only GPRS access. And if you have an EDGE device or even better a 3G device, you will have great speeds on your mobile phone. But if you want both GPRS and HotSpot, then go with the $30 Data Plan.
As for the proxy, you will enter 216.155.65.50 (you got an extra 1 in 155). The getmorespeed.voicestream.com is for the APN that you input when creating the connection.

hi, ive had the 5.99 plan for awhile, it works good with 216 proxy number, but the speed isnt fast, my apn name is wap.voicestream.com, and I tried getmorespeed.voicestream.com for AOn, but it did not work, can u please explain how do you have your settings configured

Use wap.voicestream.com instead. As far as I know, getmorespeed.voicestream.com no longer works. Atleast it doesn't work fo me either.

I am using internet2.voicestream.com since I have the $20 plan. I don't need a proxy for this data plan.
- TKN

it's wap.voicestream.com for the 5.99/plan, internet2.voicestream.com for the 19.99 plan. You only need the 19.99 plan if you plan on using your phone as a modem...

I cannot wait to try this $20 plan with a 3G enabled phone and see what speeds I will get ...

Need Sidekick internet settings for The Hermes

Need Help got a Sidekick PrePaid Sim card in my Hermes everything works Text,Phone Use but can't get the internet to work Did a search for the Settings all i got was the Access Point Name : hiptop.t-mobile.com it connects but i need the proxy sever address does anyone know what it is

why dont you check the t-mobile website since this has nothing to do with hermes it has to do with t-mobiles WAP internet settings

Try this its for the people that have the 5.99 tzones plan
proxy 216.155.165.50 and then click advanced and change the HTTP port to 8080
one thing dough how did you get the sidekick sim did you call tmobile
post if it works

I tried that did not see any all i need is the proxy settings and the internet should work

I did the proxy 216.155.165.50 port to 8080
it connects but cant get any pages to show up
i called them and told them that i had a sidekick and they set up the prepaid sim that i had so now i get unlimited text just need the internet to work but with out the right proxy settings all i will get is the unlimited text

don't have hermes but i like the idea of using a prepaid sidekick sim for internet on one of my mda's

did they ask for a imei number

yeah they did ask for the imei number everything went ok if i could get this to work all i would have to do is get a Dual SIM adapter and have Paid/prepaid SIM cards so i can have unlimited Text and internet for a dollar a day and switch over to use my minutes that would be so sweet

u can just sign up for the 19.99 blackberry add on....the go to net settings and change it to wap.voicestream.com

Any luck? This still seems like a good idea

the tmobile sidekick plan only works with the sidekick. You need regular phone internet and it will work. i believe its a daily usage charge. also you should be connecting to wap.voicestream.com when you get that settled.

I second this.
You cannot use the Danger proxy on the Hermes. It will not work. Many people have tried using this and also the Danger settings for Fido up here in Canada it won't work.
The proxy will recognize that you are not using a Danger device and as such if it can, it will use your Telco's instead which you will get charge their regular rate. You will know when you get your bill at the end of the month.

This is for a pre-paid sim not contract sim. And anyways US tmobile does not offer internet service just like that you have to get a plan.

I posted a solution on this you mite whant to see my post hope it helps

Tmobile US

For some reason my internet service doesn't work on my x10 but every thing else works just fine. I tried calling tmobile technical support and the guy said he has not idea how to fix it, and refer me to post a threat at the tmobile forum Dose anyone know how I can set it up?
Thank you.

I am not quite sure what problem you have. My x10 works fine with T-mobile US A. Do you mean you do not get their 3G network??

I just let my phone do the automatic settings and it just worked. 3G and all.
I have the $19.99 T-Mobile Unlimited Internet Plan + T-Mobile Hotspots plan.
Which data plan are you running?

I can't use internet... I have to connect to Wifi if I need to use the internet.
I used to have this same sim card on my factory unlocked iphone 3gs and its fine. I don't know what the problem is? Can you tell me what's your network setting like?
Thank you

[Q] Is the T-mobile $10 Data plan still working on N1s?

Just wondering if the $10 data plan was still working for Tmobile N1 users who changed the APN settings. What kinds of speeds are you getting?

$10 data plan still working for me. Located in Southern California (San Bernardino area). Getting speeds of 2.5mb down, 1.2mb up.

which one is this, is it that internet for dumb phones one?
How do you do this? Wont they just change you back to the higher priced internet?

Works for unbranded phones like the Nexus, or Nokia N900. On you account you need to put that you have some dumbphone like the Razr, or a Nokia without a full browser. I found this through google:
1.Navigate to the wireless & networks page on the settings menu of the N1.
2.Scroll to the bottom and select Mobile Networks and then Access Point Names
3.Delete all current APN's. Do this by first selecting the APN, touch the N1 settings softbutton and select 'Delete APN'
4. Now create a new APN by hitting the button again and then "New APN'
5.The first APN you will create will have these settings:
Name: T-mobile US
APN: internet2.voicestream.com
MCC: 310
APN Type: default
all other parameters are set to 'not set'
6. Now create another APN with these settings:
Name:T-Mobile US-MMS
APN: epc.tmobile.com
MCC:310
MNC:260
APN Type:mms

Mine stopped working today. Had to switch to using T-Mobile proxy. But then again, I didn't change settings after I got my replacement phone

Been using the 5.99 tzones plan since back in the day and it works perfect for me with default apn settings.

works on Nexus, tried this on Vibrant and doesnt work....

5.99 plan and still working.

Yes it still works (internet2.voicestream.com APN).

Mine just died an hour ago on epc.tmobile.com so I switched to internet2... working for now but how long?

I thought the APN had to be set to internet2.voicestream.com, and the mms set to epc.tmobile.com. After googling around, with that setup you shouldnt have any issues that im aware of.

same here. my epc.tmobile.com has been working since april 2010. epc.tmobile.com stopped working today about an hour ago and brought up the upsell page. internet2 works fine, but for how long?
btw, i have the 2.99 tzones
also, i feel like internet2 is slower. maybe i'm just being bias.

T-Zones is different from $10 web2go. epc.tmobile.com only works with T-Zones but not web2go. Looks like T-Mobile starts blocking unbranded smartphones from using epc.tmobile.com when it's on T-Zones.

phew...i was freaked out before.

i dunno, they have yet to block me out... im going to flip a **** if my internet gets shut off lol

i was too. i was thinking to myself the hassle i would have to go through going through craigslist to sell the phone (paid $240 off contract for it!) and having to buy a replacement phone (i was leaning towards an hd2) that was compatible with t-zones still

Update: about 30 mins ago I got the upgrade screen of doom. Went to my apn settings and changed to internet2. Still didn't work. Before I threw the towel in I changed back to default and am using it to make this post. Wonder how long it will take them to shut me down again.
