Hello I am trying to use my activated (works in my ipad) SIM from my ipad in my atrix, I set up the apn to be Broadband and the rest the default.
The atrix doesnt even show 3G a d obviously is not connecting, I am in the Orlando area.
Anybody has gotten it to work?
Thanks

Hi all,
I've got a T-Mobile Vario II, and basically the 2G and 3G data connection had been working great on it.
However, since about a week or two ago, I cannot get any 3G data connection. It would connect to the T-Mobile Internet service, but it won't actually load any webpage - it just keeps saying "Locating", as if the DNS is down or something.
But if I go to a non-3G-covered area, the 2G data connection works great.
T-Mobile don't think there is a problem at their end.
Any idea/advice please?
Thanks.

Had the same problem with mine, phone up t-mobile tech support and ask them to enable HSPDA on your account, they will tell you it will make no difference but get them to do it anyway, it worked for me and download speeds are 3 times faster than 3G

Also double check they have really enabled it using DSL Reports

you should expect 500+kb/s
There have been a couple of reports of them saying they will enable it but not really doing it!

Since i'm new to windows mobile i was wondering how to disable data roaming.
I just figured out that my HTC Touch Diamond was roaming and i already have a bill of 7euro's for just 1 day roaming..
I have a subscription to for unlimited internet access, so roaming is not necessary.
I already set my network to manual.
Also i wanna have only wifi enabled when there is wifi around, but still it connects to a other network too.
Someone who likes to kick me into the right direction?
Thanks.
how do access the Internet settings such as change dns serer address
I don't see the DNS anywhere but there are a lot of options if you go to the Browser->Menu->More->Settings
Anyone else have a G1 with no internet connection?
I got mine the morning of the 22nd, and since then I've not been able to access the internet by either means of Edge or 3G. I also live in a very good 3G coverage area. Anyone else having this issue?
I called T-mobile, they escalated it up to engineering and told me they are working on it. Was told I'd more than likely get called back today, and i didn't... Seems everyone I know has no issues with the net and their new G1's.. Anyone here having this problem?
I'm liking the phone OK, but for the 349.99 and 30 bucks tax (I wasn't eligible for the upgrade)and 4 hours in line... I'd like the internet to work out of the box. .
Half tempted to get the Touch Pro, since it appears to be at a local best buy...
I had a HTC diamond touch with WM6.1 same processor pretty much a kickass phone and I can tell a big different when it comes to internet speed.I don't live in a 3G area but the G1 browser is faster than Mobile Internet Explorer and Opera.Mine started working out of the box.
If I were you I would go to your Tmo store and ask and think about the other phone....it's gonna be more expensive too.
See ya.
I did for the 22nd
the chick put the g1 data plan on the wrong line, so I got no joy till I called and had it fixed then waited 8hours for the setting to change...
but now all is well

Does anyone else's EDGE randomly go off and on? And not the no-service so no-edge thing, i mean i'll be in the same position and it will randomly disappear and reappear...other times it just doesn't connect.
another thing PLEASE HELP WITH...
i have cincinnati bell and they recently rolled out Dual-band WCDMA 1700/2100 network.
is this NOT the same as t-mobiles? i partially bought this phone because it would work with cinci bell because they were both on the 1700/2100 band, but apparently not because i can't get 3g signal...well i've seen it flash 3g before for like 1 second but then it goes away.
any suggestions? i also have mms troubles but thats another thing i'll worry about after fixing my current problems.
I'd guess you need to change the APN settings. Google "g1 att apn" and you should get plenty of instructions for AT&T. Just modify them to work with Cincinnati Bell. And yes, Cincinnati Bell is using the same 1700/2100 AWS-1 T-mo is using.
i have the correct APN - internet DOES work and has worked on all other devices using my current APN configuration.
Hm. Beats me then. Are EDGE and 3G rock solid right now with your other devices?
i hope thats it...EDGE works...most of the time. i haven't gotten G yet. i have no other device to test 3g on...except my brother's super un-smartphone nokia 3555 which displays "3g" at the top almost always...that's the only other 1700/2100 mhz phone that i know of.
hopefully this gets fixed in an update? also, should i delete all other APN's from the list besides my CBW one? and should i have a separate APN for mms and data (cause under the tmobile ones the apn type on the data is set to default and apn type under mms is mms...i copied this format...no luck either...mms still doesn't work).
EDGE and GSM is Smoothest across all HTC i have used.
and GPS is the fastest in all HTC Device may be becuase of Dedicated Antena on Body below Battery cover
I just received mine yesterday and have been using internet all day. the only problem i had was at 2am (gmt) i was dropped down to 2g. But that was a t-mobile problem, my PC broadband was dropped down to 2g also.
Both were back on 3g when i got up.
In you case it may be the phone, id phone up your operator. If your network isnt experiencing any problems then you should send your phone back.
Well I have a Verizon Samsung Fascinate and I have the AT&T UVERSE App for my phone since I subscribe to the U400 package with AT&T UVERSE. But it's not letting me download show's over 3G, it's saying WiFi only. I know with my iP4 I have an app that allow's WiFi only app's to operate over 3G.
My question is, are there any hacks or app's that will allow me to use UVERSE and other app's over 3G instead of WiFi and trick them into thinking 3G is wifi?
Thanks I appreciate all your help.
My guess is: very doubtful.
So one day my internet flat out stopped working. any app or browser when opening up says "no internet". i checked my network and it's defaulted to AT&T US HSDPA. then i switched it to AT&T US and now everything is working again. Do any of you guys know what the difference is?
Also note that i'm still getting 4G indicated by the "H" symbol in the status bar, at least that's my understanding

So I posted this somewhere else but because I'm too lazy to find it ..
The difference between AT&T US and AT&T US HSDPA is the APN's (access point names) they use to connect to the network.
AT&T US uses the WAP.CINGULAR apn while AT&T US HSDPA uses the PHONE apn.
If possible, the ATRIX always tries to connect to AT&T US HSDPA first as the PHONE apn has a higher speed cap than WAP.CINGULAR (hence the HSDPA), but occasionally the phone may switch to AT&T US. I've seen this happen once, but cannot tell you why my phone did it.
If you are on the "4G plan" for smartphones that AT&T offers, your plan *should* include access to both APNS. If you're on something else, however, you may not be able to use AT&T US. To be honest, as long as you can access AT&T US HSDPA, you're going to be fine.
