Can I have web2go on my Vibrant if I root the phone?

I had an hd2 with an Android evo rom which let me use HDSPA speeds with web2go... now that I got the vibrant (without the 30 dollar plan), is it possible to use web2go if I put a custom rom like on my hd2? I obviously know from continous research that its impossible to have it with the stock rom but is it possible to have web2go with a custom rom? thanks.

No. It does not matter what ROM are you running, unlocked or not. They know your IMEI number if that is a T-Mobile model.
Probably, first few hours works with web2go plan, then they'll block. Also you'll receive SMS messages for reminding you to add correct data plan.

Tip it will still work. I've tried myself.

how did you get it to work?

Go to settings then networks and click mobile network. Click apn settings and make sure all the way in the bottom you have mms and internet selected. Then open your browser and it'll work then.

I tried what tge post above said with internet2 and it didnt work... U used that eith a custom rom?

I've used it with every custom rom for the vibrant and it worked every time. Do you get signal at the top of your notification bar with edge showing it's downloading and uploading? There should be a green and red bar blinking if you do.

I'm curious if this still works also. My girlfriend recently lost her phone so I am giving her my old G1. She is coming from a dumbphone she she doesn't use the internet much, will mostly need it for checking email and getting directions.
The internet2 thing works I hear?

Crazy I have those arrows when I try to go to a website... but it redirects me to web2go data update... even when I have those two arrows. Does web2go work for you with a stock rom? If not then what custom rom should I use (that will look the same as the stock I like the stock)

I know TMO is getting very picky on their data plans, and they insist you have a smart phone plan for your Android device, so they may have started blocking some how ..
But there has been announced that $10 200meg data plan for smart phones.
I know access to the market and such only works half assed on my "Windows smartphone" plan when using my HD2 on Android.

its very hard to find a solution for this someone please help me... Crazy25000 you have been the most help till now can you please answer my post before this

You have kind of answered your own question IF you are getting redirected to "web2go data update" , then TMO is telling you that you need to have a smartphone data plan, and most likely your phone has been identified as a smartphone.

Download eugene froyo rom. He has the second revision posted and that's what I'm currently using. It is stock and everything will be familiar to you plus awesome enhancements. Promise

Hello everyone .. My nexus s not read any sim card so I took it in for service .. I come home and the problem remains the same .. I call them and tell me that the only explanation is that the phone is "SIM lock" but I read on the net that the nexus s are not blocked by the operators .. I throw my nexus?

Who did you take it to?

We can't help you until you give the info we're asking for. Who did you go to? What model is your nexus? What rom are you running? "All rom" doesn't count. Rooted?
I actually have a guy in mind who can fix your phone (I think)!! I read about him in some old book, dude has a soft voice, creeps some people out with his hippy message (all that crap about peace and love!) And was a carpenter before. He's really famous, most people visit him on Sundays, he's like the clean up guy from "Michael Clayton ". I'll talk to him, if he's not busy he'll pm you.

There is obviously a language barrier here. No need to make fun of him because English is not the first language.

Have you looked in the the Development section or the original development section to see if any of the ROMs in there fit your needs? There are also a couple of index threads in the General section that list the ROMs in certain classifications to make it easy for you.

Told you to wait it might not be what you wanted but it's an answer

It's my understanding that AT&T blocks native video calling, at least that's what I was told when I asked about this same issue.
Basically just use Skype or another video chat app.

There is a Mod out there to enable video chat on Stock ROMs (for Google Hangouts or chats or whatever it is called now), a search would probably turn it up. AT&T is supposed to enable it on all Android phones by the end of the year...if they keep their promise.

I think OP was asking about native video calling. As in open the dialer, dial the number and hit video call. The phone can do it, AT&T still has it blocked. Again, I'm repeating what I was told about this same topic.

Blocked yet daily I see a damn commercial for the s4 with a brother and sister using it as the younger brother enters high school for 1st time . advertising it but blocking it? Wtf is that? Every time the commercial shows I have to hear my damn wife bugging me why our S4s won't do it. This is why I'm asking. Lol

Apple probably patented it and is suing the piss out of everyone who wants to use it.

[q] call block on the verizon g2

Anyone know how to do this on VZW? It can be done on the TMobile variants, but it's different on VZWs G2s for some reason

The first thing you should try is not posting questions in the general section.

To block your number on VZW you have to enable the service on your account. I believe it's under your plan or something. After you enable it your number will be blocked from caller id. If you want it to show, you will have to hit *82 then area code then number.

I guess I didn't explain this well enough. i would like to block certain incoming calls on my G2. I was able to do that on both my Galaxies and
my DNA, but I can't seem to find that option within the call settings.

My bad. I haven't found any setting either. Might have to use a 3rd party app for that. The only thing I can say is that if you have the number stored in your contacts, you can select ' go straight to voicemail'. I do know that some ROMs have that feature, like CM.

The aosp dialer has the option to blacklist specific numbers and wildcards but I've never seen a stock dialer that did.

You have the option to send strait to voice mail. That's pretty much like blocking a call
