xperia x10 for T-mobile

hi i'm new to this and i'm not a programmer. can any one could guide me how
to setup data service T-mobile carrier?

What does this have to do with Android development? That's right, absolutely nothing!
Come on people, don't post useless messages in the wrong forum...

Hi,
You are Posting in the Wrong Forum Category, the right place would be http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=615
To your Problem: Under Settings->Wireless->Mobile Networks select "Automatic Configuration" after that you should be ready to go.

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general

Make sure you get the x10 with the right bands for Tmobile 3g, and that the phone you buy is unlocked. Pop in your sim card. You should be ready to go, that's how it worked for mine except I got the one that works on 850/1900 3g for AT&T.
If for some reason it doesn't work, you can set the APN for data manually in settings -> wireless controls -> mobile networks -> access point names and input the settings for the tmobile data plan you have: http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm21625.xml;jsessionid=6mJPnjzkuv_SLBEXGs
Enjoy your phone!

I am in the US using my x10 on the t-mobile network right now.
When I chose the option to auto configure the internet settings it did not work so I changed the apn to internet2.voicestream.com and that worked.
if you go to settings > mobile networks > access point names > t-mobile GPRS > apn then input the apn stated above, it should work.

That's strange on my T-mobile sim chip is simply auto configured the phone without any user intervention.
Great news is that T-Mobile's faster 3G service is starting to spread. I was randomly testing this weekend and now I'm getting 3.5Mbps / 1.3Mbps (up/down) on average.
Before I was getting 0.6Mbps / 0.7Mbps so that's a huge improvement!
This is in the Los Angeles area.

[Q] 3G with the Adam

How's the U.S. users' experience with 3G? I have ATT unlimited data with my plan wondering if I can just pop in the sim to use internet.

Don't know what reception would be like as I don't live in US, but for 3G to work expect to have to manually configure your APNs in settings for ATT.
If you have an android phone you can easily pop in the sim and copy the settting in:
Settings-> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names.
Hope this helps.

[Q] unlocked tmobile hd2 no data connection??? please help

i have a tmobile hd2 and its carrier unlocked i am using it with ATT and i just recently lost all data connection to my phone. i have an unlimited data plan that was working perfect until just recently. no internet or mms not even weather!! only can use wifi. can anyone help? thanks

Have you tried
*#*#4636#*#*
dial this and then go to phone information.
Have you run the ping test?
Checked what Current Network says?
Checked to see if there is anything listed under =======DATA======= ?
Have you tried to put a friend's TMO sim in the phone to see if data is restored?
All the data you can provide could help solve your problem. As is, the problem might be a little ill defined.

If you are running Windows Mobile on your HD2 from the home screen touch onvStart Menu/Settings/Menu/All Settings/Connections/Connections. Then tiuch on the adcanced tab and then touch on Select Networks and make sure AT&T is the selected network. Also tiuch on the Task tab and select Manage Existing Connections. While on the Modem tab make sure AT&T is selected and under the Proxy Settings make sure the box beside "This network connects to the internet" is checked.
Ok if you are running Androud then go to Settings/Wirless & Networks make sure allow data connections box is checked. Also go to Networks/Vertualy private networks (VPN) and make sure your AT&T VPN is corrwct.

i have fixed the problem! i was running the tmobile 3.14 rom udate which sucked and i just flashed an energy rom and alll is working again thanks for the suggestions

Same Problem
Someone please help and know that I know little to nothing of technical terms! I have the same problem. I have a T-mobile Hd2 and had Android put on it. Right at first I had a data connection then all of a sudden-NO DATA. I'm so frustrated! I checked the setting for using the phone as data connection SEVERAL time. I can get wifi but no data otherwise. PLEASE HELP

Try:
Menu - Settings - Wireless and networks - Mobile network - Access Point Names - menu button - restore to defaults, and follow the simple instructions
This should place the latest APN from your carrier on to the phone - may need a soft reboot

Hi, I'm currently trying to get my T-Mobile HD2 to work properly on NTT docomo, a Japanese cell carrier. I moved here at the end of May and have been using a data-only SIM through bmobile, a provider that uses the same towers as NTT docomo and it worked perfectly, however I switched to a voice and data plan and now I have no data connection. Voice works fine though.
I followed nenol's steps and under =======DATA======= it says, "State: DcInactiveState disconnected with last try at 9:49PM fail because Activation Reject GGSN" What now? Ha

[Q] Cannot connect to mobile data service

Hi,
I just bought an i9500 Galaxy S4. Replaces my Nexus S.
Either-way, I have it simmed to Telus in Canada. While connected via my wireless everything works as it should. However, when I disable wireless and use just the mobile connection I can only use phone and sms, I cannot get connected to the internet via mobile data.
I called Telus and they said to verify Telus as the carrier. I did. They asked me to do a search for networks. Which I couldn't do because I was talking to them on the phone I was troubleshooting on. So I disconnected. Once disconnected from call I opened the network settings and did the network search. It completed once and I chose telus. Still no mobile data connection.
When I look at status it says:
Network = Telus
Mobile Network Type = UMTS:3
Service State: In Service
Mobile Network State: Disconnected
My device is:
GT-i9500
Android 4.2.2
Baseband ver. i9500XXUAMDK
Kernel Version 3.4.5-Adam-1.2+
Build Number JDQ39.i9500XXUAMDK
SELinux Permissive
I rooted my phone using the instructions found here: www dot redmondpie dot com/root-galaxy-s4-gt-i9500-on-android-4.2.2-how-to-tutorial
Everything seemed fine until this morning until I could not get mobile data connection. I did not test the mobile data connection immediately after the rooting so i don't know if it (the rooting) had anything to do with my current issue.
Also, when I attempted to check the network mode I only have these choices:
1. GSM/WCDMA
2.GSM only
3.WCDMA only
I currently have it selected as GSM/WCDMA (auto connect) but I have tried GSM only. The Telus person says I should also have GSM/HSPA as a selection and I know the phone does support this but where it is I have no clue.
Any help I could get for this would be awesome. I am thinking of unrooting the phone and sending it back and I really don't want to do that cause I LOVE this phone.
Thank You.

There wont be anything wrong just that u ll be missing "apn" setting in ur mobile network
Which can be edited in setting / ither networks / mobile networks / access point names
Google it for ur network or call ur service provider for the same
This should solve it
Also rooting wont affect may be apn setting is reset nothing else

Ok resolved. I was to quick to disregard my provider(I usually look elsewhere first because of bad experience's calling help-desk's; this time it backfired on me).
It was a simple thing really. In case anyone else experience's this here it is;
On my new phone I had only one network provider: isp.telus.com
I had to grab my old phone and add this also: sp.telus.com and all other settings copied from my old phone
The help-desk lady said that the isp.telus.com is used for tethering only and that it facilitates communication between the phone and the laptop (or whatever other device you are tethered to) and the actual data connection is is the sp.telus.com .
My phone was only picking up the isp.telus.com network and I had to manually add the sp.telus.com. She said it happens on some international devices and didn't explain further.
Anyways, hope this helps someone.
Cheers

WAS-AL00 originally on China Mobile – gets only 2G speeds in the USA – what gives?

After unlocking the phone everything works just fine, including all the Google services (hooray!), but it gets only 2G speeds on T-Mobile LTE network in the USA (4G setting in the phone is enabled).
The APN is T-Mobile US LTE. However, if I go to Settings > Mobile Data > click cog on top right > Data plan settings it shows the phone carrier still as China Mobile in Beijing.
Does this mean that the SIM is locked to China Mobile only? If yes, why is the phone working, although at 2G speeds only?
Is there a way to make sure the phone is SIM locked? I’d like to avoid spending $30+ for an unlock code to find out it’s still not working.

If you have the correct APN settings I think it's the basebands using different frequencies that are not compatible with the p10 lite.
