ok well im running 2.24 custom tmobile usa rom.. i upgraded from the aku 2.3 mr clean usa rom.. and now my MMS arent sending.. it gets a waiting icon next to it. pretty much its not auto-connecting to the GRPS to send them out like it did b4 i check my settings and it all seems fine i even re-installed the tmobile network cab posted in this forum but its still not connecting to send them out neone got ne idea whats wrong
same thing
the exact same thing has happened to me. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with data services. as it turns out the OS 2.24 rom has not been released by tmobile US yet. the tech said their system does not recognize the OS as one that supports mms because it is to new. when he looked up the OS version he said their system has 2.24 listed as the UK version not the US one. he wasn't sure if it on their end or mine, but since you have the same problem, I would venture to guess it is the rom not on tmobiles end
this doesnt make sense cuz it worked on the mr.clean 2.24 rom...2.17 2.21 roms...so what the hell lol.. well i figured out how to get it to work.. go into ur connections and change ur settings to T-mobile MMS for both connection options.. dont use the t-mobile data cuz the settings are wrong.. i got t-zones on my plan so i added a new t-zones data connect and it works just fine now. hpe that helps
can you be a lot more specific about how to do this?

I bought a Cingular 8125 from eBay and recieved it today. I unlocked it with loki and it works on my T-Mobile SIM and my AT&T SIM. I was talking with a member of the forums here and he told me to purchase unlimited MMode for $25 a month and I can get EDGE data from AT&T. I purchased it and went through steps to use "My Work Network" but when I use IE it says "Connecting to Cingular GPRS" and doesn't connect. Any idea how to fix?
Also, I see AKU 2 is available and I was also recommended to flash my ROM because I don't need the Cingular bloat (I'm not even using the Cingular network!) but I have no idea what to use.
I wanted to try the AKU 2 but I don't have 50 MB free on my phone so I'm going to buy a memory card tomorrow... is that what I should use?
Also, regarding Outlook and ActiveSync... can I set contacts in Outlook 2003 to be Personal and Business and then have my phone only sync with the personal contacts? How?
Thanks!
this is the post that was left by a user in a topic i started. Maybe its because you didnt do the radio rom ?
i'm posting this from an unlocked 8125 on a cingular blue (old AT&T) plan and I absolutely love it. I see no slowdown where i'm at compared to the cingular SIM chips. on dslreports.com/mspeed I average between 125 and 155 kbs.
if you still can hurry and add unlimited mmode for $25 a month before they completely freeze the at&t accounts so that any change/add would warrant a migration.
once you do, get your 8125, carrier unlock it, cid unlock it, flash with button's cooked rom, flash with radio rom 1.13, customize your extended rom to the way you want (no need to use the cingular extended rom, its just bloatware because your on at&t's settings.
to get edge working just set your connections to connect to "my work network" on both settings, then go into my work network and add a connection "cellular (GPRS)",name it at&t edge (or whatever you want. now the important part is that you have to set the apn as "proxy" without the quotes. then set this connection connects to the internet under the proxy setting.
leave username and password blank and domain blank. that should do it, then connect to internet explorer and you should be surfing on edge. good luck.
I paid full retail also, $490 after tax, and it was worth every penny. I could have got it for $250 if I migrated and used my FAN buisness account, but my blue plan is sooo much better. good luck.
Check out this link if you're still having problems setting your 8125 to work with the at&t network. It's not exactly for the 8125 and WM5, but its very similar. I believe this is for the blue angle and WM2003.

if you still have questions after looking at the link let me know and I'll try to help.
Oh and no, you don't have to update the radio rom, the radio rom update will probably help with reception and edge speeds, but won't have an effect on connecting to the network.
Kenny- I've got my 8125 working on Cing Blue. If you need the settings PM me and I'll copy them out to you. It was a pain but I got it working in the end.

Thanks for the replies guys.
KINetics: I read the guide and realized I needed to edit the Cingular GPRS connection, and I did as it said... and got a little bit further. My 8125 says connecting to AT&T GPRS, says "locating..." and then returns the error: "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again later." Any ideas? I have 4 bars when this happens, and the E icon (I'm guessing it's EDGE) is showing at the top.
Also, I want to have the phone as upgraded as possible... and I want the internet to work, which is why I'm thinking about updating the rom. Can you tell me what I'm best doing and how to go about doing it? I'm getting a 1 GB mini SD card today.
Thanks again!
SUCCESS!
I got the internet working!
I went to connection settings and to the proxy tab and unchecked use a proxy for internet.
Thanks for all your help! I just need ROM advice now.
danrw84: Have being trying for 3 weeks to connect and no one could help. Followed your instructions and it worked. Thanks a bunch.

Ok, i'll be receiving my T Mobile MDA this week. I want a clean ROM, and the best radio. But I still want all the functions/features to work (MMS, etc.).
If i understand right, it would be using this radio upgrade, the 2.47.11 rom. Is that correct?
And for the ROM, I could use Molski's, or Ell's AKU3.2.
I'm not really sure on all the terminology, like AKU, or IPL/SPL....so some help would be great. I've tried to use the WiKi on here, but some parts are left out. Thanks.
You mean Wizard MDA Vario Rom Upgrade???
You can access this page
Or Download
Have fun
no i'm from the US, getting the US T MO MDA. Looking for a clean rom with nothing in the rom that is carrier specific; i.e. splash screens, color schemes, anything like that. I want the best radio upgrade and the best rom.
May I suggest you live with the MDA at least a month before you flash it? The 2.47 radio rom is the best I've ever used. I'm using T-Mobiles 2.26 rom. If you don't want the custom T-Mobile options that come with the ROM you don't have to load them. Just do a hard-reset and when it says it's loading the custom cabs just do a soft reset and load the ones you want.
I had an MDA before, a couple months ago, and loved it, but had to return it. Now I am porting my line over to T MO, and I remember doing the 2.24 upgraded rom when i got that one...and it was great. One thing I remember not liking about it though was my MMS. I couldn't send picture messages when connected to wifi. Has there been a fix for this?
no fix
im not sure there is a fix for sending mms when on wifi. the phone uses GPRS to access the MMS server on the tmo network . When wifi is on then GPRS usually drops. if i were you i would just send the picture message as an email. that way there are no messaging charges. you can send it to their phone # [email protected] and all other carriers have the same type of email set up
here is a site with all the cellphone email addresses http://www.hiptools.net/sms/
Hello All,
I bought a prepay Side-Kick Tmobile sim card in Memphis today, after activating it and toping it up. I put it in my Kaiser. Auto connection setup started nicely and found tobile USA settings.. whoever, I am unable to attatch to the data network.. when ever I try and connect, the E with arrow icon starts working around, but then it stops and a message reading: Cannot connect for unknown reason (then it goes on about changing settings etc)
I looked everywhere for answers, (as I id like to think im more intelligent than just asking a question that could be dumb :-D) but i could not find a thing that worked about this.. and the things i did find were not helpful..so apologies in advance if there was an obvious place for my answer but i missed it some how..
The Device Information is:
ROM: Dutty WM6.1 WWE (CE OS 5.2.19716, build 19209)
Date: 04/01/08
Radio: 1.64.08.21
Protocol Version: 25.74.40.02H
I would hope that someone can help me, as i am desperately needing to get connected... im visiting from the UK and my silly sim card malfunctioned and i can no longer get online :-(
Many Thanks
the other day i saw a cab that said ::
"use this when you have trouble setting up t-mobile" ..

has a cab and instructions.. maybe its for you.. if you try it, please report results
Sidekick data tries to connect to Danger (manufacturer of SKs) Servers for internet connection, any other devices will not work on that service. You need to use the service that they offer for regular cell phones called Tzones or the data plan for smartphones

I tried the file (its one of the solutions i found and didnt work before posting).. what it did that it refused to even try and connect. it was something to do with having the Prixy settings active..so really im not sure what to do..
I tried to get through to Tmobile CS, but im almost sure that they will have no clue on what to do, but i was too late in the evening, so I will try tomorrow..
Any more ideas are Warmyl welcommed!
Thanks
from what i've read it seems that the sidekick data plans will not work on our devices.. as i was planning to do the same thing it seems that only the unlimited text would work not the data probably due to the fact that the data connects through danger which would detect that it's not a sidekick.. i was disappointed to find this out b4 as well
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr
So what does a man have to do to get access to get pay as you go mobile access( in the US)!? does any one know any other service provider that would sell me a prepay sim that will have some kinda daily data package?
cant tell you who dissapointing this is!

I totally agree! I ran into the same problem as you. I am in the USA for 3 weeks and want a cheap (prepaid) mobile data connection. The best option seems to be: T-Mobile Total Internet Plan $40 month-by-month unlimited EDGE + WiFi.
ATT also sells prepaid sims under the name Go Phone...

Yes.. I found that out.. but they said in the ATT shop that it doesnt allow data access :-(
The Sum of All Fears!
Well to sum up,
I managed to get through to tmobile CS, they confirmed what was mentioned before about Side Kick servers. so the anser is No to all other devices besides to "side kick" (the handset)..so no Kaiser, or anything else!
I guess that i will have a new addition to my sim collection!
Many thanks to all that gave thier opinion and tried helping out
Ta
i actually had the same problem. and i downloadede a Dutty Tmobile set up worked wonders! make sure you install it to device .
i downloaded the zip onto my memory card. inserted it into phone searched my memory card opened the zip and used the DUTTY tool to set up connection. installed the program onto device and once installed you will need to do a soft reset in. once the phone comes back on it will prompt you to set up the tmobile connection.
hope it helped
Before i decided to flash a new rom i had been having issues with my phone getting, and staying connected. At first to just data connections, ie 3G. So i decided to try a cooked rom for the first time.
But since then i've had even more troubles getting my phone connected and keeping it connected. Ive been through Hyperdragon III Opal, Dutys latest rom, and now im on the latest AT&T rom, and still im having troubles. Ive hand entered in the Media net connection info so many times ive got it memorized, ive even tried cabs, turning proxy on or off, and just plaing letting it sit for a while. It seems as though every time i try something new it might for a second but next thing i know i lose connection and can't get it again without restarting my phone.
If it helps im currently using HardSPL 3.56, and my phone is running the AT&T ROM version 3.57.502.2 WWE and radio 1.65.21.18
This is a very urgent issue for me as in my job i use my phones internet almost daily.
Ok for a while there with the stock AT&T rom it was working just fine. I went to start adding in a few cabs and it was like my phone once again decided to hate me.
Im not trying shogunmarks DeathV4.1 and have NotATreoFans AT&T v3.2.5 Loaded downloading in case the other doesn't work. I don't even really care about having a really awesome cooked rom, working is about all i am after right now.
UPDATE: Tried both of those ROMs to no effect. ive now broke down and rolled back to the original ROM and SPL that came on my phone when i bought it from the store. I pray this at least gets it working long enough for the Touch Pro to come out and me to get enough money to buy one out of contract. Still if anyone has any ideas im all ears.
Ok i hate adding a new reply or bumping this but now things are getting desperate. I have been through checked and changed every setting, tried everything. now its not just data, the phone itself wont work as a phone. Calls wont go out or come in. If someone trys calling my phone it never goes through, it wont even go to voice mail. This makes no sense at all.
All that comes to mind at this point is a defective phone. If you bought the phone new, then it has a 1 year warranty on it, and AT&T will replace it for you. If it's been less than 30 days, then just box it up and go to an AT&T store for a full exchange.

Set the phone band to GSM manually and see if you can make phone calls. If that works then search for 3G problems. There are a lot of bad devices which suffer 3G not working.
Connection Settings
How did you set-up your data connection? Manually or automatic config?

Yea i downloaded BandSwitch last night on a hunch it was just 3G, and low and behold my phone works fine on EDGE. I can make calls, and get the data connection working.

I have tried doing it all by hand, cabs, and even the auto connection wizard. As i discovered last night it wasn't my settings but 3G just not working at all.
Thanks everyone
UPDATE: I called support after rolling my phone back to its original shipped ROM and SPL, and man did the guy at the call center almost crap when he heard how early of a ROM i was using. He said i have to install the newest update first then if its still borken (considering ive had the newest one on here before, i already know the answer to that) that they will send me a new one since im still in my warranty period Yea for customer support
I have been combing the forums and searching like crazy for a way to get my MMS to work on T-Mobile USA with my ATT Tilt. It has the stock WM 6.1 on it.
Can someone PLEASE help me and NOT refer me back to searching? I'm about ready to get rid of the phone
Have you tried using the T-mobile configurator?
http://tmobileuspublic.wdsglobal.com/
There was a Cab floating around called tmobyjoe599 that could also set all the data settings. It appears to be here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395203

Ya, non of that seems to work. I'm sure that someone out there must have gotten this to work...I've had other phones from other provides and didn't have an issue with MMS...
Check to see that you have 3G signal. No 3G no MMS. Also, I'm not sure but does the Kaiser3 (TILT) even support the 3G Frequency of T-Mobile?
Also, SINCE you are using a Stock At&t ROM I have a sneaking suspicion that you won't get an At&t Optimized ROM to work on another Network. Maybe you should flash a Custom ROM and see if that helps.
Ya, i've tried that too, and I can't even get the hardSPL to install...SOOOO i think I'm stuck with no MMS : ( I get the big "E" on my screen for the edge network of T-Mobile.
EDIT: Nevermind, I FINALLY got it, with the help of T-Mobile Configuration tool...
moneyies?
do you have to pay for the configuremyphone thing if you have unlimited texting?
