I have the same problem....after reading the forum topic on how AT&T is blocking data usage from SGT's.....I think that T-Mobile is doing the same thing. I have two sims...one from/for each carrier and T-Mobile roams on AT&T's network and I have to tether to my EVO.....defeats the purpose of carrying only one device!
so theres no way to use data on a tmobile galaxy tab with a tmobile sim with the no contract 500 minute voice / unlimited web / messaging plan?

Hello all I have a HTC/Fuze (Raphael) with AT&T and can access the web just fine. I however did not get a data plan on the the phone..just an unlimited text to talk family plan. This is an offered plan in case you do not want a data plan. My question is how can you tell if you are using your wifi to access the internet and not the att network. I don't want to be charged for using the internet (since i have no data plan)...I went to the att store yesterday and they told me I can still get charged for using their network to access the net even though I have no data plan... can anyone help me with this question?
Thanks.

you need to use the HTC data connection application. you should be able to totally disallow any internet connection.
I am using an Orbit 2 on O2 UK, when wifi is connected it will only use it until disconnected or out of range, then reverts back to 3G.
You will know when it reverts back because the speed of the internet will slow significantly.
I completely disable/delete the medianet and AT&T ISP profiles so that it doesn't ever connect over 3G.
I have the same setup as you (but with a Tilt, no data plan). Download Modaco No Data cab, install and disable the ISP (the first option). This will turn off data usage but still allow you to send and recieve text and MMS.
I got the unlimted data plan.
I checked my bill and it says under data unlimited...
Then under that it says additional data used and its in red 32kb?
Do we get charged for using data (roaming data) that is not on the sprint network?
How do we change our roaming settings?
No but don't go crazy

There's no charge for voice/data roaming with Sprint. However, if you seem to roam more than you 're on Sprint's network, they'll most likely make you switch carrier since it costs them more for you to roam than not. IIRC I read somewhere about this happening to someone.
So long story short. I am using the Vibrant with my AT&T service that has the unlimited iPhone data plan. The first few days everything worked great, but now I think AT&T is blocking the "Web" app from connecting. Every other app works fine to go online with 3G (Facebook, Opera, Market), but not the browser. Any suggestions or fixes?
Have you called AT&T? It may just be you need a smart-phone or Android data plan as opposed to the iphone data plan. The type of phone you have often times affects the plan you need.
I have a laptop that has a ATT SIM card with data plan. I tried to use it with my ATT Galaxy tab but it didn't work! I easily reach my 2GB limit on my TAB and I was hoping I could use the one in the laptop since I rarely use it. I did SIM unlock (although both are ATT SIMs) yet didn't work.
Any ideas if this can be done and how?
Thanks
Hello.
Although not specific for you, I've done similar with my Canadian Bell Android phone with unlimited data plan, and Bell Galaxy Tab with pay per use plan.
I now have galaxy tab with unlimited data plan, provider is none the wiser.
Your issue might be the apn difference between the tab and the apn set up on your laptop's sim plan.

Thanks for your reply, but how did you do it? or it did work right out of the box without any adjustments?
Anybody have an answer or work around would be much appreciated
Find the APN settings from your service provider for the sim.
Then install APNDROID PRO and enter them settting from above. Install the sim and your laughing! !!!

I would like to give my MyTouch 4g to my mom who is also on Tmobile. However, her plan doesn't include data. Is it possible to use the phone with her plan without racking up data charges? I'd essentially like to disable data over Tmobile and only use it over wifi. Can that be done? If so, how?
System settings/Wireless and network settings/ mobile networks/ uncheck data enabled.
This is for CM7 not sure about stock as I have never used it.

Turn off mobile data in quick settings in the notification bar
Sent from my T-Mobile MyTouch 4g
I tried turning off mobile networks in the quick settings and it mostly worked. However, a few minutes after I turned it off, the 4G sign came on and I was able to browse the internet. This only lasted for a minute or two and then I wasn't able to connect again. Any ideas what was going on?
I'll hand off the phone for now and run the experiment myself. I'll report if I notice data usage again.
If her plan doesn't have data, it wouldn't connect to data when she puts her sim in. My son has a Samsung Vibrant and doesn't have data on his line under our family plan and he's been that way for the past 3 years. So I wouldn't worry.

Yea I used a HTC magic without a data plan for a while. Carriers that say you must have a data plan with a smart phone are stupid. Don't listen to them.

You don't need it the data SOC for use the phone that only carrier advice to gain more money so relax even if the H, 3G, E appear that mean the device(phone) is trying to connect but wolr no go thru bc the required service does not exist on your TMO acount
