T-Mobile USA, iMate Jam and GPRS. HELP!!!!

Hey there,.....ultimate noob posting here but here goes.
I have an unlocked iMate Jam on the T-Mobile USA network. I have upgraded my plan to include the internet on this phone. These are my phone settings/information:
ROM Version: 1.11.00 WWE
Radio Version: 1.11.00
Protocol Version: 1337.42
ExtROM Version: 1.11.210 WWE
Model #: PM10C
The problem is that I cannot connect to GPRS to get or get MMS. I have gone through the connection settings with t-mobile reps about 20 times and I'm SURE they are correct.
Does anyone know what's going on here? Is it my ROM version. One t-mob rep seemed to think that my ROM version was unsupported. Has anyone else had this problem. Can anyone shed any light? Thanks.

By George, I think I've got it...
Hey, I think that one of the other guys on the forum, figured it out. Check out this post. It is working great for me. I love this forum!!!!!!!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=25662&highlight=tmobile+usa+gprs

I also have an Imate-Jam and I'd like some help from you guys sothat I can read and write chinese for text messaging... I know that there are softwares like monster chinese or CE-star about US $40, is there any alternate way instead of buying the software? since I'm not a bigpocket kinda person please help... thank you

GRRRR
Since the post from Elite has NOTHING to do with the subject of this forum, we are going to ignore it and continue to talk about this issue at hand.
FYI- After my last post, my GPRS internet seems to be working fine. I have to soft reset every once in a while but considering the level of functionality that I have had up till now, I'll take whatever I can get.
The only obstacle left for me is MMS. The iMate notifies me that an MMS message is available for download but when I click on download, it attempts to open my WAP connection (T-mobile rep said that MMS always uses a WAP connection) the connection says that it connects (after looooonnnnggg time) and then says 'receiving' but it NEVER downloads the rest of the MMS message.
All I want to know is if any other T-mobile USA customers have had similar problems. If so, is there any info you can provide me that would help me fix this for all of us.

Ok well here is the 411 on gprs and mms on T-mobile I have run and used both since the xda II was out. I now have a xda IIi and confirm everything works fine. You need to make sure you have the right internet or data service enabled before try! They have two data services. One is just wap which does not give you full access to the internet as in open ports on there network. The other is unlimited internet which is like 19.99. That gives you full access. Configure your device as the following and you will be fine for mms. Also you need your apn correct. Usually on tmobile its internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com. You can call in and ask.
MMS Setting are as follows on any pocket pc phone.
1 Under My Work Network, select “Add a new modem connection”
2 Enter a name for your connection; I used “MMS”
3 From the Select a modem drop down choose Cellular Line (GPRS)
4 Tap Next
5 In the text box labeled (Access point name) type in wap.voicestream.com
6 Tap Next
7 Leave the User name, Password, and Domain fields blank
8 Tap Finish
9 Tap the Proxy Settings tab
10 Place a check in both boxes
11 Leave “Proxy server” blank
12 Tap Advanced
13 Leave HTTP and Socks Server fields blank.
14 Enter 216.155.165.50 for your WAP server. Port # is 9201
15 Enter 216.155.165.50 for your Secure WAP server. Port # is 9201
16 Tap OK twice
Now go to your MMS program and set it up, create a new server and I called mine T-Zones. Here are those settings.
Server Name: T-Zones
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 9201
Server Address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Tap ok
Now go to preferences and enter these settings,
Connect Via: My Work Network
Connect to Server: T-Zones
(check the box to retrieve messages immediately)
And it should work.
Enjoy!

TMobile GPRS Settings on 8125

Can someone tell me what I need to do to get an Unlocked Cingular 8125 to work on TMobile so my GPRS and MMS work? I tried doing a search and a lot of irrelevant posts come up.

assuming you have a data plan, the gprs access point name is;
wap.voicestream.com
That should do it, there's not PW or other logon info you need to input.

http://www.t-zones.co.uk/en/Getting_started/help_with_tzones/mms.html
On all MMS handsets, ensure that the following has been set up:
Connection Name UK MMS
Data Bearer GPRS
Access Point name general.t-mobile.uk
User name user
Prompt password no
Password one2one
Authentication secure
Gateway IP address 149.254.211.010
Homepage http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk:8002
Connection security off
Session mode Permanent

Where do I input these settings on the Phone? I actually found this site that looks like it has all the info.

Thanks for the help.

gprs/networks settings for tesco-mobile

Hello all,
I've just managed to unlock (Thanks to buzz-lightyear!) my lovely uni from T-Mobile to be able to use my tesco simcard (until the vodaphone ones come through) I seem to be able to make/receive calls as I should be.
However, I got a message from tesco shortly after making my first call which said 'Your phone does not appear to be able to accept automatic settings, please call our care team on blah blah blah to resolve the problem'.
Did that and while the guy I spoke to had never heard of the handset, he provided me with a bunch of settings which I somehow need to stick into the system. They are as follows:
WAP
homepage = http://wap.tesco-mobile.com
apn address prepay.tesco-mobile.com
gateway 193.113.200.195
username tescowap
password password
port 9201
MMS
http://mmsc.mms.02.co.uk:8002
apn - prepay.tesco-mobile.com
ip = 193.113.200.195
username tescowap
password password
port 9201
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My question is this: Where and how do I get these settings into this phone. Is the gateway similar to the WINS? I'm not sure what I need to do here, I would dearly appreciate anyones help on this.
Also, I want to donate a few quid to buzz and here, but when I try to do it on buzz's site, the paypal site comes up in German. Any ideas there please?
Thanks very much.
Alan

I have no interest in MMS so cannot advise but about the wap/internet ...
AFAIK tesco mobile runs on O2 network. My O2 PAYG setting are as follows; settings, connections, advanced, set to my work network. Add a new modem connection. Put a name and choose "cellular line (GPRS)" Next enter apn address. Next enter username and password. Finish. Under proxy, tick "this network uses a proxy.." Put 193.113.200.195. Tap advanced and put 193.113.200.195:8080 for the first 3 and 193.113.200.195:1080 for the last. Soft reset.
If this doesn't work I would try your same APN. username and password, but without proxy.

triplejay, thanks very much!
I haven't done it yet but I have a feeling those settings are going to work. The IP address you have supplied is the same one the tesco mobile 'care team' member gave me. I didn't end up online, but I think because we didn't put a proxy in, he wasn't sure we needed one.
I'll give it a go and see what happens there.
Thanks again!

Sorry to drag this up, but has anyone else got this phone using a Tesco Mobile sim? For all I try, I cannot get MMS to work. If you do, please let me know all of the settings and where I need to put them into.
Cheers

Thanks triplejay, I followed your instructions and they are spot on. Also thanks to inksmithy for the info. Im back on the mobile web - yeha!! Good stuff fellas

greetings from soaking wet and utterly drowned ireland,big up to everyone who has built this amazing site,cheers.
anyhoo thought i,d payback a bit.
here are the setings for 3 ireland for the spv m3100/hermes.these setting were arrived at after many many hours of fiddling and growing my very own ulcer.
these settings have resulted in full internet access with full mms send and recieve.
create a new connection called 3,modem-cellular line (gprs,3g)
APN- 3ireland.ie,leave all else blank and finish.this will be your default for internet access.
in messenging-menu-tools-options-*mms
Create new 3MMS
gateway- 217.171.129.2
port-8799
server address-mms.um.3ireland.ie:10021/mmsc
connect via my isp
size limit- whatever,mine is 300k
wap version 2.
dont rename the wap connection leave as my isp and only call the modem 3.
and thats it.the gateway was the key.
btw what about a new sticky for all the mirriad networks out there.these settings took for ever to find and then figure.
enjoy

MMS Settings not working
Thanks for the settings. I still can't get the MMS working on my TyTn on 3 Ireland network.
These are the settings I'm using:
MMS Server: "3MMS"
Gateway: 217.171.129.2
Port: 8799
Server address: http://mms.um.ireland.ie:10021/mmsc
Connect via: "My ISP"
Sending size: 300K
WAP Version: 2.0
Connect Using: "My ISP"
"My ISP" Settings:
Modem:
3
Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
APN: 3ireland.ie
Proxy:
Nothing checked
Also, has anyone got Planet3 and services working for 3 Ireland?

check your mms apn it 3ireland.ie not ireland.ie,ive been using mms for 3 weeks now no worries with the posted setings.i can log onto the 3 web site,my 3 etc 3 mail is a bit of a pig as it is not tytn friendly,internet is proving a stumbler as i cant navigate away from 3 and cant download mail over gprs,there may be a proxy or port that need sopenong alternatively a slight change in the apn may be required.keep looking

Duh, got it now... Thanks stevieboy.
Server address should be: http://mms.um.3ireland.ie:10021/mmsc, dunno how I missed the 3 when putting that in...
I can access the internet and use exchange active sync and windows live over the 3 connection, I've got a mobile broadband bundle and it is working fine.
Some of the links of the 3 internet aren't working (complaining about incorrect handset, I've tried updating the User Agent string without any joy) and streaming media isn't working at all, comes up with a 'Failed to find network' message, but according to the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313961 there is nothing that can be done about that.

ive managed to snarf a copy of the australian dopod wm6 upgrade pack for three AU. flashing your tytn/hermes would brand it as a three phone and i suspect open up the streaming and wider web access,but might be a bit limited in scope other wise ,i,ll atempt to extract the relevant bits and post back with results

so then i flashed the phone with the dopod AU rom,repackaged first as it wont work if you've oli'd your phone.made a note of the USER AGENT and had a good look around,some specific network stuff in the rom area but nothing to get excited over.reflased the phone with new rom and inputed the UA and bingo,full internet with working links from the 3 site,very few "not available on this handset" etc,pop mail etc all good.maybe i got lucky and dont realise it but who gives a fu.....
heres the UA...ppc;240x320:/E1000/mozilla/4.0.
the E1000 was my idea instead of dopod 838pro as the e1000 is supported by 3 here in eire,ive kept 'mise and compatible out of it as nothing else seemed to work.
anyway by accident or design this has worked for me and i'd be keen to see if anyone else can make a go of it

I haven't changed the UA string at all and EAS, POP3 and most internet sites work fine off the bat.

i got all 3 services working

thanks for the post savage,but whats in that link as i cant open it on the phone at the mo

Thanks for the info. Will try the settings next month when I come for a visit.

Make sure you use the correct APN, sometimes PAYG APN's are different from contract ones.
