Can the HTC Tilt work on T-Mobile USA? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I have T-mobile and I really like the Tilt. If I were to able to get it unlocked will it work on T-Mobile's network?
If you you already have the HTC Tilt and using it on T-Mobile are there any conflicts?

Yes It works, I have not had any problems on T-mobile

You don't have any problems sending and receiving messages, or getting on the web?
How would I get it unlocked?

for the love of god please do NOT BUY A TILT!! can you not read all of the major threads in this forum? the htc tytn11 aka att tilt is a big pile of s***. If people keep buying this phone, htc will do nothing about the problems of this phone. get informed and buy a different phone please.

Well I am sure the Tilt is not as bad as the Wing!!!

DUDE, calm down. . . some people wont use it for what we use it so the problem wont make it self that obvious. Geez. . . the tilt is the best pda out(just lacking drivers) and it is nice to use. . .

I think the tilt is a great phone, even if it isn't as great as it has potential to be. If something happened to mine today, I would buy another tomorrow. If you want a phone specifically for watching videos and taking pictures you could do better, but the tilt is one of best PDAs on the market right now (if not THE best).
HTC definately needs to come up with some drivers for us, but you have to admit, they still made one heck of a nice phone.

With my Tilt on T-Mobile I get all my services fine. I even use the 5.99 data plan for my internet on it. I reflashed to Dutty's 6.1, and when I hard reset, it asked me if I wanted to auto configure to T-Mobile's settings. Hit yes, viola, done.
Hey, all you haters out there: He probably already read the NUMEROUS threads about the driver issues. How could he miss them? Please let newbies make their own decisions on what devices they want to purchase. All he has to do is lurk, and he'll find more than enough information on the Tilt/Kaiser.

I have had no problems at all with my tilt and tmobile. Two ways to get it unlocked are to call att and ask them to unlock it for you, or what most people are now unlocking it themselves using jockyw2001 Kaiser Sim Unlocker. Here is the link:

email routing issue + cannot download TM's w/ pics
Hi All ~~
It sounds like I may have found the right msg board! I am a T-Mobile customer using an unlocked AT&T phone with the original ROM (minus the bloatware). I currently have three msging accounts on the Tilt: test msging, a hotmail account and a work email account. I am having two annoying problems:
(1) I keep getting TMs saying that I have received an email on my work account; however I cannot (a) get the text msg notifications to turn off, nor (b) get the emails to actually pull down into the account. So: I know I have a work email (even who from), but cannot read it. Any thoughts on how to resolve either or both of these issues?
(2) I cannot receive or send pic text msgs. Really annoying; I am curious to see how other T-Mobile Tilt users have their settings arranged for this.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide ~~ Kim

Tilt on T-mob
Im in the same boat.. A little further down the river.. Here is what I did.. Bought a brand new Tilt of Craigslist for $300.. I did 3 things..
I used a service on Ebay that gave me the unlock code for my phone.. search TILT or HTC unlock on ebay.. Costs $13 and is well worth it to avoid the risk of flashing the phone.. ++ I don't know how valuable your time is but it was well worth $13 to me.. It takes a while of digging around in the forums and figuring things out before you feel comfortable with all of the procedures and language.. I think I saw my phone actually trembling with fear as I plugged her in for a flash.. Maybe that was me..
Getting the unlock code for your phone gets the tilt working right out of the gate.. Put in your Tmobile sim, enter the unlock code and voila!! The only thing you need to do now is change the network settings for T-mobile Data..
After getting the phone unlocked, I did finally get the Hard SPL to work.. After that I flashed Dutty's new 6.1 Rom.. Everything is working great.. Love this phone..

I love my tilt and I paid full price for it from ATT. There is nothing wrong with it. Its a phone not a laptop or server. It does what it was intended to do period.

So if I flash my tilt with dutty's 6.1 when i turn it on it will automatically ask me to configure T-mobiles settings for the data plan? The 5.99 data plan works with all the internet sites and programs. I've tried everything for it to work )=. Thanks in advance.

Yea, there are some roms that come with the settings configure app from HTC pre installed, if not just look in the cab data base down load it, then pop out then re pop your sim in turn it on and it will do it.

Yes, and no. When you have 6.1 on it, the first thing it asks is if you want to configure to T-Mobile's network. If you have the Data Plan, it will configure for it. It will be just the Data though. You still have to manually input the proxies to get the full internet. The settings are here, on post #4:

Everything is great so far about the Tilt, i only have 2 problems, I can either search the internet using the Tmobile Data setting, or i can get MMS messages using the T-Mobile MMS setting, however i cannot get both to work at the same time. If anyone has figured this out please let me know how you did it.
The other problem is just the short battery life i seem to be getting.

Call T-Mobile and ask for a OTA settings transfer. They are very lenient with unlocked phones. Just say its a WM6 Pda phone and they will send you the settings.

Should I buy an unlocked TYTN II now or wait for AT&T's 8925?

1) I heard some news a while back that three different Kaisers were submitted to the FCC; one was the full Kaiser as we know it, another had the front camera removed, and the third had something else removed as well (I think it was the rear camera). Does anyone know which of these three will be released as the 8925?
2) Does AT&T usually install bloatware with their ROMs? If so, could I flash an 8925 with a TYTN II ROM or would that run a risk of bricking the device?
3) if I decide to buy the 8925, it'll be without a contract. Still though, I'm wary. See, I'm currently using an unlocked HTC p3300 (Artemis), even though I'm still successfully using a "MEdia Max" smartphone data plan grandfathered back when I had a windows mobile smartphone, to get full internet access at a lower cost. I just slipped the simcard into the p3300 when I bought it and used the internet as I always did. I'd like to continue to operate 'under the radar' so to speak, but I'm afraid it won't go so smoothly this time if I buy a device straight from AT&T. Does anyone know if AT&T does some sort of owner / device lookup when you buy a new phone, to ensure you're using the "correct" service? In this case, they might force me to go with a PDA data plan, which costs twice as much - something I'd rather not do!
4) Will the kaiser's usage of HSDPA trigger a 'red flag' on this "Media Max" smartphone data plan I have and incur all sorts of extra charges? Or are there other smartphones out on the AT&T market already that feature HSDPA?
On 3), I posed a similar question a while ago:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324535
In that thread someone suggests the best option is to tell the AT&T rep when you buy the 8925 that you just want to keep your existing plan 'as is'. Hopefully that will work!

The easiest way if the ATT rep gives you a problem is to tell them you dont want any data plan, then go on the online account manager and add the MediaMax Plan yourself. And if the online manager does not list the MediaMax due to your phone being a PDA and not a phone (this happens sometimes but not usually) then borrow a friends phone (or in my case go to the closet and pick a random phone that is collecting dust) and transfer SIM and wait for ATT online to think you have a phone and then the feature for MediaMax will appear.

Interesting - so if you pop your SIM card into another phone, the system will automatically update to reflect this other phone? I always figured it just showed you the last phone you purchased....
I always just tell the AT&T rep that this is a gift for a girlfriend, and when you get home, just pop in your old sim... No harm no foul. Worked for me.

We are waiting for the ladies to flame this guy. To add to it.....
I was on a plane and saw this business lady with her IBM laptop working on a spreadsheet and next to it was her 8525. She looked at a contact and then put it down on the tray table. The screen looked like she impaled it with her tweezers. It was such a stereo type moment to see such disrespect for such a high quality piece of electronics.
Are you wanting to buy it at the 2yr contract pricing? Or are you buying it at full retail(no commitment) pricing? If you want to buy it full retail, I would most definitely buy an unlocked phone elsewhere. If you're wanting the discount, you can buy the phone, sign the contract and then if you're made to switch your plan, take an old phone, call up CS and tell them you want to change your IMEI and also switch to the 19.99 Media Max plan. It's really that simple. As far as them flagging your account for HSDPA usage(I've never seen something like that in the 4 yrs I've worked for att/cingular), if you get ridiculous ie over 100mb's then you may need to worry, but to be perfectly honest with you, if you put your sim in a phone...they can tell what kind it is...doesn't matter if you call in to change the IMEI or not. If you need more details, feel free to PM me.
i didn't wait...i'm using my Tytn II w/Smartphone Connect data plan as I had been with my Trinity for the last year. this includes tethering with data usage averaging 600MB+ per month over the last 9 months. i purchased a 3125 from ATT last Sep/Oct and got the Smartphone data plan at that time... wifey has the phone now and i'm using the SIM with my Tytn II. it's my experience that tethering will connect using HSDPA by default and work down to UMTS and/or Edge if the faster services are not available... so far no issues with MaMa Bell (a.k.a., ATT)....

8925 Identity

Hi all this is my first post, great site btw
Anyways I have an ATT Tilt that I have flashed to the latest official HTC TyTn II Rom.
I just found out that ATT can charge me more if they know I'm using a pda phone, but since I have a cheaper MediaNet plan for non QWERTY phones it works fine.
I was wondering if there is a way to hide the Identity of the phone. To show up as a Sony Ericsson or something to ATT. So they couldnt see that it was a tilt.
Also Using the phone as a modem (tethering) is a big no-no on ATT. Was wondering if there is a way to mask that too.
I have read of very serious fees... up to $700 for tethering and connecting through the phones plan. I wish to know all information if anyone has any knowledge into this subject please tell me all you know.
Your attempts sound a bit to far away from the legal path if you ask me! Your IMEI number is already enough to identify what kind of handset you have, further every server can easily determine what kind of device is knocking while analyzing the referrer information.
If you are unhappy with the data plan politics of AT&T then you should consider a provider change! I am with T-Mobile for over 8 years now, tried twice AT%T but their hidden fees and sneaky contract terms and conditions made me cancel both times!

Tmobile data plan help 9.99

Hello
I have been using the 9.99 web2go data plan part of tmobile for about 3 months now and this morning it just stopped working. I wanted to see if it happened to anyone else, and what setting is everyone else using?
i tried:
internet2.voicestream.com
wap.voicestream.com
both didnt work and i tried to use a proxy with the wap.voicestream and didnt work as well
any help would be great!
I'm also using the mobile internet from T-mobile and don't have any isseu's with it.
what you could try is the connection setup maybe it will help. it is located in start>settings>connections
They also nailed me today. THey are forcing everyone without T-mo phones to the 24.99/mo plan. Jerks.

whats ur configurations, that you are using??? because i believe i tried everything that i know of and its not working for me...
Mine internet was setup automaticly witch connection setup
the settings of t-mobile internet looks as followd
General tab:
T-Mobile internet
Moden tab:
T-Mobile internet
Acces point name: Internet
The user name and password is empty
Proxy settings tab:
there is no proxy
could i aske you where you live. maybe its a local problem.
but if i'm must be honest the mobile internet of vodafone is much much better than the on of t-mobile. i used them both and the vodafones was much faster. but thats my experiance. now i'm using the 15 euro internt plan from t-mobile it is a little bit faster thatn the 10 euro.
Here in US, we need to put a Access Point name, but they want everyone to use the 29.99 plan, but there was a loop whole where you can use another plan but still get unlimited internet, but it seems that isnt happening anymore for some people ; (

Not at all. That used to be the case, but then there was a legitimate $9.99 internet/messages plan. It was just a $9.99 plan for a half-ass edge connection, which I was okay with. But they are trying to force us up to $24.99, STILL for a half-ass edge connection (because X1a can't connect to USA T-mobile 3G). I say we boycott.
my 4? dollar whatever it is plan still works haha. I've had this thing for like 6 years? 7? and mine still works fine.
Yes, my 9.99 tmobile data plan stopped working too just last night, called tmobile and they are positive that it's due to the upgrade of their pricing, 9.99 plan no longer work, at least for smartphones, to browse the whole web. they are pushing a 24.99 or even 34.99 plan. We say we boycott too!
that soo stupid... i havent called yet, but ill call later today and see what they say
T mo told me since i had a phone not from their network i would have to get the 24.99 data plan and the old one wouldnt work anymore. then seemed as if they were relectant to remove the 9.99 data plan. Whats the deal with that? i didnt change the rules you did!
I am in the same boat. Called and they say I have to pay $24.99. This sucks and I just joined tmobile.
I went online and canceled my 9.99 plan, and now I'm thinking of switching to AT&T 39.99 /mo + pay per MB ($2 per MB) internet. Then I would only use the internet if I absolutely need to. Unfortunately it's only 450 minutes/mo (but with rollover). Anyway, there's no way I'm going to spend $75 / mo for EDGE on T-mo. Ludicrous.
I hope others also ditch T-mo; this was a really underhanded thing they did, especially since we never got any kind of warning.
i may do the same thing, i havent had time to call them and complain about this
Good news, mine started working again today, this morning

i pay 15 dollars for my unlimited data with att ... im so loving this 3g.
I agree, same here, but did you check with tmobile again to confirm that they didn't automatically move us to the 24.99 price? That's the case I'm worried most. But I highly doubt it is so.
I am using T-Mobil's 9.99 TWeb plan and everything works great except for MMS i can receive picture messages but i can't send them. its very weird i didn't have that problem on my Htc Tilt. so i don't know if its a window mobile issue. it seems since i have been using flashed roms with 6.5 i have been having problems. i am going to flash back to original ROM and see what happens. if anyone is having the same issue please let me know, i really don't want to go back to Original rom!!

KAISER: A Thing of the Past?

Hello everyone,
Been away for a short while, but I'm noticing that not much is happening new with the Kaisers. The cooks are gone to other things, and therefore tech support is far and in-between by what I've been reading over several posts in each of the Kaiser forum sections. I was just logging in to try and get help with making my volume louder (for the in-call volume AND the speaker), but my cook has gone, and seemingly not much is happening with regards to the ROM's needs.
So, is everyone going to I-Phones, or FUZE devices, etc.?
I'm curious because I'm really aggitated with AT&T right now. I just realized when I bought my wife her Samsung Epix, that JUST for buying the phone, I'm REQUIRED to have a $30/month data plan for her. She doesn't cruise the net on her phone. But she DOES text (I have the family unlimited messaging plan). She needs a device with a storage card so she can text, use the MS Office Apps, etc.. NOT cruise the net.
So, I'm thinking about changing carriers, but don't know anyone else other than T-Mobile that will accept my SIM card. And SOME say that trying the T-Mobile SIM card in my Kaiser will render the GPS, messaging, data, etc... applications useless.
So, just tryin' to get a feel of what to do next.
everything will work just fine. you should swithc to tmobile. tmobile is much cheaper than att. i used my kaiser on tmobile for nearly a year with no problems if you bring your own phone they wont make you have a data plan but if you buy one of their tmobile branded phones they will make you activate with a dada plans. anyway if you have any questions just pm me

Isn't the bands of the Tilt regards 3G different than AT&T? Thought the Tilt couldn't get 3G when using a T-Mobile sim?
Indeed the bands are different. You can't get 3G on T-Mobile with the Tilt. I use mine on Tmo everyday, with full GPS and everything. Tmo doesnt really have great 3G coverage anyways, so I don't really miss it all that much. But yeah, just use the combo SIM and CID unlocker, and slap that SIM into your Tilt and all is good to go.
Le Kaiser est morte, Vive Le Kaiser
Yeah...with the advent of more powerful phones in the HTC line (I recently went Rhodium/Tilt2), the Kaiser/Tilt is pretty much a dinosaur. I am still keeping the lovable brick for a backup. I've tried many roms...Thanks Dutty, Mr. NATF and TwoPumpChump for creating and releasing them, but unfortunately the Tilt's time for "Operation Upgrade" had come.
On the flip side though there are still folks cooking out there for Kaiser, ya just gotta know where to look and who to ask! Yeah, the unlocked Tilt will run with a T-mobile SIMM ( or any other network's SIMM), just not at the full potential that one would get on it's native network.
Good luck and good use!

[Q] Does Web2Go still work for you on N1?

Hi, I've been using Web2Go on my N1 with T-Mobile for the past couple years along with my brother. Today, it stopped working for both of us.
Anyone else have this problem? If so, what solutions have you found for it? Thanks!
BTW we are both also on CM7 if that matters. We're using the internet2 APN.
Thanks again!
It stopped working for me too today.
I thought it was a CM9 thing....apparently its bigger than that
same here =[
family plan, my bro's N1 is still working though.

Stopped working for another line on my account too.
Had no choice but to call 611 and inquire. They said they will "Upgrade" me to the regular 200MB data plan with no overages and no additional charges.
I asked if they can give me the 2GB plan since they are changing my existing plan for their benefit, they couldn't do it. (They offered a 5GB plan for $25, i.e. $15 more)
Oh well, no market downloads over mobile and limited tethering for me... Looks like Tmo got hold of a majority of the Nexus One IMEI numbers.

same apn. internet2.voicestream
i'm hoping for some workaround
Stopped working for us as well.
Changed APN to wap.voicestream.com and its working again!
However, a lot of ports/sites are blocked. Can't access anything Google related, Facebook, Whatsapp, etc.
I'm looking into SSH Tunneling to see if that would fix the problem.
After 2 years of the amazing N1, think I'm going to switch to HTC Vivid or Galaxy SII i777 sometime soon. Yeah, I know I'll only get EDGE for now, but I don't mind. Maybe later I'll get 4G (some signs of tmobile getting ATT bands, but mostly speculation).
mine died today, too. once i get a chance, i'm switching to simple mobile.
Stopped working yesterday in TX.
If I'm gonna pay full price for internet, might as well get me
phone that can handle 4G.
Just wanted to also chime in. I'm in TX as well and I haven't had data service for the past two days. It was nice having web2go for 2 years, but I'm going to move towards just not having a data plan anymore, go prepaid, and use a usb stick whenever I travel for data.
My only other option would be to try to jump onto the $30 / month walmart plan -- gah I'm so tired of cellphone companies.

That may be an option, but that's effectively a downgrade that makes me rather consider switching to (gasp) at&t.
The N1 I have stopped working with the web2go data plan too. Does any one have any solution for this? Was planning to upgrade to something else now

Only thing you can do is swap to a plan that work.

Stopped working for us as well.
Changed APN to wap.voicestream.com and its working again!
However, a lot of ports/sites are blocked. Can't access anything Google related, Facebook, Whatsapp, etc.
I'm looking into SSH Tunneling to see if that would fix the problem.
After 2 years of the amazing N1, think I'm going to switch to HTC Vivid or Galaxy SII i777 sometime soon. Yeah, I know I'll only get EDGE for now, but I don't mind. Maybe later I'll get 4G (some signs of tmobile getting ATT bands, but mostly speculation).

Did you try configuring it to use the old proxy that the wap apn used?
If you're going to get another phone, I'd check the hofo wiki. They have a list of phones that have 3G ("4G") on AWS but are compatible with tzones.
TMO will probably never get 1900MHz 3G all over, just in a few places.
