PLEASE HELP ME. AT&T is so horable

Ok im almost ready to sue AT&T for how long this is taking. I have spent 5 hr on the phone trying to get my data plan back...
Here is what happened. my 8125 with a 2 year old cingular unlimuted data plan (40$) included tethering and there access to isp.cingular. well my phone died so i went out and got a tilt. i bring it home and i look online and find that the (trying my best not to sware) horable sales men switched my plan to a 10$ more expensive one with out asking me. So then i have to spend time getting my plan back. so they revert it to a 40$ plan but i cant connect to the isp.cingular. i call back, go to there head it person and he says you can get it back. you need to spend 60$ on a plan that supports this. (im thinking you people messed this up, un mess it up) so i kall more times and i get nowhere. all them dont understand me and think im having a problem with wap.cingular even tho i say wap works. i mean i have been using the isp all through out the time i had my 8125 and loved it. now i get a diled isp.cingular. unable to connect.
so what do you think i should do. i have spent too much time on this but i want my old plan back. does anyone have any ideas or advice. (and yes i have gone to the manager wice... they were less helpfull then the others)

When you got your tilt, did you sign up for a new contract? If not then you should still have your old plan. They are grandfathered in. They CANNOT take it away unless YOU switch your plan. Just be aware that you cannot access 3G with the SIM card from your 8125, you will need a 3G SIM for that.

well i think i did sign up for the 2 year aggrement... but i did get a new sim card. but can they really change your plan with out telling you and make it 10$ more expensive?

Are you sure about that statement? There are no contracts for data plans like there are for voice plans to my knowledge anymore except for a few specialized data plans (most of those like some international data plans are 1yr commitments). Thats why you can add and cancel your data plan at any time without having to pay an Early Termination Fee.
I've gone thru some of my contracts for the past few years and I don't see anything stating any data plans have a commitment form either party. Only Voice.

well i mean i got the two year contract to keep the price of the phone low. (the 100$ off with 2 year contract) so yes it is for voice but the guy changed my data plan for some reason

Yeah this happened to me as well. When I got my tilt they chopped my old plan to hell and back and to get it working right I ended up having to pay more money than on my old plan. Sucked and for some reason it's a hit or miss whether or not I get pictures messages now.

Ok, well i guess i will try my best to have them give me the 60$ plan for 40$... just have to make them feel horable for it

they do it cuz they make commision off u
its in the contract u signed. they lie, cheat.
thats how corporate is though.
just ask them to switch you to a media net unlimited plan $15
tell them u have a regular phone not pda, and ask for the $15 media net unlimited
and teather, but i hear they put a cap on it.
i cant believe any of u guys would pay more than 20 bux for unlimited internet,

What about the fact that they are now monitoring the IMEI of the phone you are using and if it is in their database (AT&T Branded) then they'll know he should at least have the $30 plan. (Which is still a lot better than $50)
Anybody know what happens if AT&T figures out you are on the wrong plan? Do they switch you to the $30 plan or try to charge you outrageous fees?
I don't want to tether, and I'm offended that I should have to pay 2x for the same service just because I bought the wrong phone! Maybe somebody will come up with a way to repair our IMEI soon.

One time when i was in the At&t store talking to a rep making adjustments to my plan, he noticed the HIGH data usage and saw that i had a medianet plan and not pda connect on my 8525 (this was about 6 months ago).
He tried to force me to switch to the $49.99 pda connect plan but i just persisted that i bought the 8525 from them with that plan so he let it slide (although it was an imate jasjam and not att's branded 8525 )
BUT he warned me that if i get "Caught", and he said i will, they will charge me per KB which will have the bill break through the roof! But i know if this happens i can just go to the store with my bill and add the pda plan and have them cancel the charges. (i've done this before when i went over my minutes, messages, and kb when i was on a 5mb plan, not unlimitted)
I haven't been caught yet and last week i switched to the unlimited pda data plan for $30 so i'm playing it safe now (but still tethering )
ALso i can not connect to isp.cingular, i thought that was the point of the pda plan. Do i have to call and ask them to allow me to access isp.cingular?

From my experience, wap.cingular is faster than isp.cingular.
I have the $45/mo PDA Unlimited Plan (includes 500 any-type messages), and I tether using wap.cingular. I get 50-100kb/sec download speeds on my laptop when tethered.

Speak to an AT&T rep that knows about this, and cares, and knows the tricks. I suggest Gyngabread Man here on this forum - send him a PM. He got me fixed up properly with the PDA Connect Unlimited plan for $39.95/mo. and I have access to isp.cingular as well as wap.cingular.
Good luck!

Typically if you read the two year agreements or rebate agreements they will say that it's only valid with a specific data and voice plan of at least $X value. That's not uncommon.
As for getting back a grandfathered plan. I know at Sprint, depending on how old the plan was, once it was deprovisioned the system just was no longer capable of reprovisioning it. No matter how much you wanted it to.
My guess is though that you did in fact agree to have your plan changed. They just didn't make it any more clear than they legally have to.

My mistake... I am on the $39.99 PDA Unlimited plan. I was on a strange combination of Data and Messaging plans until I went into an AT&T store to buy a pair bluetooth headphones, and the rep looked at my account and pointed out that I could save money by combining my 2 options into this 1 plan.

this wut i did....i got a crappy phone ( real crappy) not a pda or smartphone and got the data plan 25 bucks i think unlimited internet and text now its 30 cuz i added 5 to get unlimited text and they asked me y do u want unlimited for my phone and said cuz i like it and then i changed to the tilt on craigslist bout mine for 250 and just put my sim with all my data plan and no problems

That is a cute trick, but you are not the first to think of it. AT&T can tell that your are on the tilt. The browser requests contain information about what OS you are using. You probably are not using ridiculous amounts of data, so they have no reason to look. If they ever do look tho, they will see you are on WM, and they will switch you to the correct plan without warning.

I work for AT&T Tech Support. For the sake of keeping my job i'll call my self BoB.
Anyway you can still tether with wap.cingular as mentioned before. The only way we'd catch you is if you were downloading torrent or excessive amounts of data. We recently changed our data features which I think is retarded.
One thing they don't tell you is that the new Tethering plans which cost money out the ass have a 5GB soft limit.
What this means is that after 5GB of data you have used, AT&T will monitor any usage past the 5gb. The reason for this is so that they could price their data plans accordingly, hopefully for the better but in this world probably will be for the worse.
If you are casually browsing just use internet sharing in your phone to tether. Go to File Explorer-Windows-Scroll down about halfway to Internet Sharing then hit connect.
YOu could also go to wmwifirouter.com and download the app straight from the phone, it turns your phone into a router and you can just tether like that. I think it's ridiculous to charge so much for data. Sprint (even though I would never switch) Has their unlimited everything for 99 dollars, data, gps, voice, tv, etc. That just goes to show you how much unlimited data is actually worth.
Get a 19.99 Medianet Unlimited Plan, 19.99 Unl Messaging and you are set
Just get a RaZR and switch your sim card out, place a couple of test calls, and boom call in to have it changed or go online to make the change. After you have both features on put SIM back into TILT and you're done. I feel so bad when I tell a customer that in order to tether they need a 60 dollar feature. I'd feel insulted if that were me.

Thanks everyone for this help... after reading i guess my new question is what is so different between isp and wap... i thought it was like wap goes through a proxy and is not "THE internet" where as isp is "THE internet". is that right? also i would run a speed test too but well i cant.

All UK Networks except T-Mobile

Just want to see if anyone else has the same . Just got my Uk Version today but in the setup for Network there is no T-Mobile?

The previous versions of connection setup do have t-mobile, and the provisioning file has the same format, so it should be possible to add t-mo UK without issue...

I see BT-Mobile, and O2... so i assume BT-Mobile is actually T-Mobile?
Anyway it auto detected virgin, which is an MVNO of t-mobile, and of course it has a different APN (for billing purposes). I had to manually enter the apn.

Strange. Mine picked up T-Mobile setup with both roms 1.34 and 1.35 (elite 1.0)

A bit off topic here, sorry, but saves opening a new thread..
I'm currently on three payg with the £5 internet access add on, does anyone recommend t-mobile over three? I find the 3g coverage to be naff in most areas on three, and I remember someone saying t-mobile has better 3g cover.
Any comments? Thanks.

Hard for me to say as I live in a city so 3g is good , but T-Mobile has it running through a lot more of their network than most. Have a look at Tmobile website . They will have a coverage map.
I have installed T-Mobile settings but seems strange that it is missing off the list. Not a prob as you will be able to get them off the T-mobile site soon anyway.

In UK , I would say the t-mobile 3g coverage is really good and way better than 3-network.

Where I live (the grim north) 3G on Orange was great. I have just moved to T-Mobile and in the same areas I do not see 3G at all, saying that, In my place of work I get HSDPA on t-mobile and only 3G with Orange.
Overall I think T-mobile have better coverage and I do live out in the sticks

Thanks for that guys, but one more q:
on my three plan, I spend £5 a month to get "fair" internet use, so far seems good. On the t-mobile plans that I see on their site, you have to pay £1 a day for unlimited internet, that's already going to be £28+ a month, add onto that texts/calls, that's expensive for payg. Am i reading the deal wrong? Or do they have other internet deals?
My three 3g drops often onto "H" and sometimes drops to "G", so if (as most of you say) t-mobile is better for 3g coverage, I will go with them - if there are better deals for the internet.

Why not just buy a tmobile webnwalk package...im on the £10 a month one and it works brilliantly. Used to regularly get 3.5G on my nokia n95 8gb and was blazing fast.

Is that £10 a month no extra charge for unlimited internet use? I'm looking on their site but can't find much.

Yup it is, allows me to use the internet as much as i want without paying anything extra ie only pay £10 it and i can spend as much time on the internet as i like. Also includes usage of messenger programs. I dont think the package i use allows you to use your phone as a modem for your laptop nor does it include VOIP calls.
But if i was you give them a ring and they can explain to you exactly which package does what. They do have a web n walk pro package as well but thats £20 a month i think but allows you to do anything on your phone ie VOIP calls, tethering your phone to your laptop etc etc.

Mmm, they def arent there on the latest 1.37 rom version
My diamond that I got today which is an official UK version didnt have the tmobile settings either. Does seem strange that the tmobile settings arent in there tho?
I just found a tmobile settings cab on my touch dual from previous searches on xda developers and used that.
Sorted, internet works fine. Will leave the cab on my phone just in case I need to reset them.

I'm on T-Mob's Web N Walk basic for £7.50 a month (on top of my flext) with my current Hermes. Not sure if it's available on PAYG, though.
Messenger works here too, as does using it as a modem. A data packet is a data packet, be it from a phone or a laptop, they can't tell. I don't abuse it and stay well within the "1GB fair use unlimited limit".

Can someone kindly post the tmobile internet cab file or point me in the right direction so that when i get my Diamond tommorrow...i can have my internet working properly. BTW does the cab also include the MMS settings??.

You can just set it up yourself..

Folks, I read in the www.3g.co.uk forum that Three was to strike a deal with T-Mobile to expand their coverage. I live in N. Ireland and the three 3G coverage is pretty impressive.

well there is no "activation" of the x1a on att.. just put an existing att sim card in the back and there ya go. x1a should do the rest of the setup for you. att knows i have x1a and they still only charge me 15 a month for unlimited internet.. muwahaha!

^^^ What he said, but don't forget to update to the newest firmware. My provider was not in the first firmware, but after I updated to R2A the phone configured itself automatically.

Yup, the X1 does the whole set up for you. All you have to do is insert the sim card, turn on the phone and it will automatically find all the settings for you. Easy as that! I would definitely update the ROM as Orelsi says. Unlimited Data is only $10 a month if you are on a family plan! MUAHAHAHHA.

ya but i dont already have an account with them and they sent me a phone i put the sim in my x1 and nothing happend. i called them and they said they couldnt find the phone so it wouldnt work. im sending the phone back. i dont need a 2 year contract and i dont know what to do from here

What the in the hell are you talking about dude. Your carrier will never be able to find out what phone you are using unless you take it to the store, show it to a representative/salesman and say "here is my phone"
What in the world are you talking about dude. Are you talking your online phone profile? The phone you pick for your profile doesn't matter. Your profile could be saying that you are using the LG Vu, and yet your actual phone is the Xperia X1. Is this what you're talking about?

Family plan baby! There is an option for an unlimited family data plan in att.com in which you have to pay only $10 a month vs. $15 if you are not in one. The $30 plan is a smartphone plan that AT&T is pushing upon you and isn't really required if you have a unlocked phone, so you could be spending $15/month instead!
My suggestion is that, if you have authorized access to change your plan try and do so, log on online @ www.att.com and change your plan from the $30 plan to the $15 plan. I don't know if you can do this if you are locked into your 2-year commitment, but you might as well and try anyways. Another way that I changed my plan was going to in-store and told the rep I had a SE 850i (any non smartphone will do) that is unlocked and wanted to get internet on it and they hooked me up with the non smartphone plan.

[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

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.

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.

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.

wifi-tethering tmobile samsung note
keep in mind on september 5th 2012 tmobile is relasing the truly unlimited 4g data plan no caps or anything for 30 dollars
a month free tethering for everyone my friends thx

I keep reading about how great this unlimited $30 data is for t-mobile -$20 when added to a value plan, but you have to add it to your voice and texting plan- the cheapest I found under value plans is $35 for voice, $40 for voice and texting. So you're still looking at $55 at the least, plus taxes and various fees.
I will stick with $30/mo, 100min, unl text and unl web (first 5gb at 4g spd).
Am I missing something?

I believe so

I will stick with $30/mo, 100min, unl text and unl web (first 5gb at 4g spd).
Am i missing something?

i believe so my friend im on a family plan right now im paying 20 dollars a month for data for 2 lines for 2 gigs, if i move to the 5g plan i will be paying 3O dollars a month for 5 gigs this will still have a limit if im wifi tethering not using there hotspot thing which is an additional 14.99 per line. So if i get the 30 dollars unlimited no caps which is the sam price as the 5 gigs i can achieve th same goal with out an stupid text messages saying i went over my limit

Then I hope it works better for you.
I left my family plan with ATT for the $30 4g plan. My hubby is stuck on the iphone, so he won't leave. It made sense when we could add a line for $10, plus another $10 for data, but then they went smart phone crazy!!!!!!! Good bye ATT!
Don't get me wrong. If t-Mo turns itself around, they will be jacking up rates too, I'm sure. But for now, I like them.

mistake

this will be a mistake by tmobile to have this plan i have also read that they stopped the wifi tethering already in europe on the unlimited plan. my hope is to get on this plan when sep 5 comes around so i can have it and then when they realize how big of a mistake they have made i would already be grandfathered into the plan when they discontinue it.

dosent work

did some testing, and it kindof working, ventrillo is working, got into diablo 3 game is working, but chrome or IE brings up the tmobile hotspot screen
any help on this one? thanks

after much reading it is not our rooting or software problem, it is the way TM handles IE/chrome/FF to determine to give us that dreaded page on our pc/lt. on a tablet/phone the tethering works fine.
my solution was to run a vpn on my pc and have the info tunnel out from there so TM cant look at what info is being passed, or you can try one of the vpn apps for the phone.
Second choice is on the pc/lt you can run a user agent swithcher for your browser and emulate a android version of it, but only draw back is you will be accessing the mobil version of the site, this is much easier fix for those who dont know how to set up a vpn.
hope this helps others in supplement to the OP original post for getting tethering to work on PC and laptops.
