I believe this has been asked all over the place for the last several months or so. It's somewhat of a fluke that it's been allowed. Tmobile has been "upgrading" their networks and rolling changes. In the interim, they've kind of left the doors open for anyone with access to their voice networks to have free access (for the most part) to their data networks.
So, I can only say that you've been lucky to this point to get free internet from them. I've read that for some it's popped back on from time to time, but I who knows.
Maybe you'll get lucky again, maybe you won't.

is anyone else's working or not working? let me know.
thanks

Mines working right now.

PLeeeease Help me

Ok so you guys are the best when it comes to these answers, ATT cant help me cause they stink, anyway. I have recently come out of town for the holiday and now my phone will NOT log into the internet. I keep getting that there is a a connectivity error. So i cannot do ANYTHING online related, update stock reports, check mail or go to websites. But i can still make calls, texts and i can even still use the WIFI router option and it shows up on my mac.
What could be the problem? At&t had NO help for me, told me to call HTC, yeah no thanks.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
*****Problem solved, i ticked the switch time zones automatically option and it started working! How come AT&T couldnt tell me that? Laaaaaame!

Missing APN Settings?

Hey guys i've got a rooted Hero running MoDaCo 2.0. Im tryin to get this MMS working and cant seem to get to the APN settings. I know its suppose to be under the Mobile Network Settings but nothing is there. Ive looked at the instructions here on the forum but it doesnt give much detail. Im running on the ntelos network (based in Virginia) which im thinking could be the issue but i just wana be 100% sure

I'm not familiar with ntelos but this is the CDMA Hero forums and CDMA does not have APN menus since the data/mms functions are part of the phones programming and is not supposed to be user accessible.

Yeah nTelos is a CDMA network so that answers that question. Thanks man. Im trying to follow the instructions here

but im not sure on what acually goes in the "YOURSERVERHERE" and "Production" sections. Ive heard of some people getting it to work using the sprint settings which i have but im not sure what EXACTLY to put in.

Bell Atrix Experience

Hey Guys,
Wanted to share some initial impressions of my new Bell Atrix.
Picked it up yesterday and had to sign a 1month contract (purchased mine full price at $600 + tax). I emailed a guy from one of the threads on here for an unlock code (im on a corporate fido plan) and got the unlock code in literally 2 hrs!! (VERY IMPRESSED!--he is very inexpensive aswell --$20 USD for unlock codes) -- i can provide the email address of the guy if anyone is looking to unlock.
It seems like my WIFI isnt working. It keeps scanning for wifi networks and when i put in my wifi password, it just wont connect. ive got thru the forums here and noticed that others have had this issue, anyway i can fix this without having to get another unit?
I am still in the process of configuring it, but dont want to go too far ahead without getting the Wifi issue resolved. I will be contacting Da_G to do a system dump and see if i can put gingerblur on there.
Mods: If this thread can be integrated into another one, please do so.
Cheers,
SS

I am expecting to get mine today,will be unlocking for Rogers.
Sucks about wifi
Did you root?
What settings did you need to change for Fido? APN? Other?

I havent rooted it yet. Im still new to Android -- ive been on the corporate iPhone 3gs for a year now...waiting for a smartphone that would be a big bump up from my iphone. Never really felt any of the previous phones cut it / would be a big jump from what im doing on my 3gs. Having said that, my brother is samsung galaxy S user and is accustomed to android for the last 8 months or so..so we'll be playing with this phone all weekend and seeing where things go. Ive also contacted Da_G for a info on a system dump.
I needed to add APN setting for FIDO...here is the forum i used: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537829

Update: one the Bell atrix forum, one of the posters mentioned that it was my security type for my network. I am able to connect to my work network fine so i think ill change the security type at home and give it another go. for now, all is good!

Thanks. But still weird that WPA2 only works until you SIM unlock, and after that, you need mixed mode.

Flash different carrier ROM to my phone

Hello! I have the T-Mobile version of the V20 and I read that i may be possible to get unlimited hotspot on my phone (I'm using metro PCs) if I use a phone from another carrier like AT&T and was hoping someone could help me with flashing a different ROM that's not T-Mobile to this phone so I can test the theory. I've tried vpns I've tried root hotspot apps and none of them work so this is kinda my last resort lol. Thanks you guys.

Very bad idea. Do not do it. Have you tried the "dun" hack?

Yes I have and that doesn't work either. I've tried pretty much any method I could find. WiFi tether router doesn't even work.
