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!!

tmobile $5.99 internet

Today my 3g stopped working all i can get is 2g anyone else having this problem it is Tmobile usa

3g doesnt seem to work for me...

do you have the 5.99 tzones plan, or are you actually paying for a 3g plan? I am using the 5.99 tzone which i am grandfathered into... and my brother has the 2.99 unlimited data. We both were getting 3G since the nexus one was released with no 3G plan, so i'm just making sure this is an issue for all users. I'm worried they are able to stop us from using 3G now all of a sudden since this has happened to my brother and I both.

im not grandfathered in, but it is 9.99 web2go plan which i believe is the same thing

ok, i may have spoke too soon, i just actually downloaded speed test and i am NOT getting hspa anymore although this has happened before so ill hold my comments until tomorrow, maybe ill get it back

please let me know bc my brother and i both not working it sucks also i am getting a new n1 so i will see

keep contradicting myself here, but pulled battery left it out for few minutes, booted and got 1.3 megs on first pull(i barely get 3g at my house) ill check at work tomorrow i usually get 5-7megs of dl speed..anyways ill check back in with info

ok anyway to edit the thread

internet2.voicestream.com works fine

deleted +10

I'm on the $5.99 plan and have been for years. I just got 4.57 Mbps on the epc APN. Its just the local berwick giving you problems. If your in a big city maybe they are upgrading your towers.
If they ever drop tzones the you'll get nothing. Just, zero data.

works fine

Tmobile and T-zones change?

I've been using Tmobile T-Zones for years for my internet. Had it for my Palm Centro, used it on my iphone, and used it for the past 6 months on my Nexus One.
For some reason now, this AM (also for a brief hour or so last week), Tmobile is not letting my T-zones work, telling me I need to upgrade my data plan.
Anyone else having this issue?
This is not a T-mobile contract Nexus, this is the full price unsubsidized one.

I have the $10 plan I got with a dumbphone and that still works for me. Is ur apn set to internet2.voicestream.com?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

I was grandfathered in to the $6 T-Zones plan. I think this is the same thing as the $10 plan. Haven't changed the settings or APN but I'll check.
Addendum:
epc.tmobile.com is what I've been using all along. ? why they'd shut that one off and keep the other one going?

Idk that never worked for me. Then again I'm a new customer. epc one always took me to web2go page saying I need to upgrade. Hopefully they don't stop this one.

Crap, changed the apn to internet2 and still having the same issue. Rebooting, seeing if that does anything...
Maybe I'll pop the SIM into my iphone when I get back home to see if I still have the same issue.

Bah! Looks like it's nationwide.

One of the other forums had a guy from Yorktown, PA reporting it was still working, so maybe in your area it's still okay?

Sux for everyone else though.
That's an additional $19/month. Won't break the bank, but it was nice while it lasted. If it's a permanent block.
At least I may get faster speeds!

hi guys imsoongoing to buy a nexus does the phone work on tmobile uk /?

Yeah I'm in pa too. This is gonna suck. I'm getting 3.5mbps speeds with this already

Question, does it still work on your iPhone ?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Ok, all the forums report it's back and working again. I just tried and it is working. Did not make it home to try it on my iphone.
Apparently did not affect (at least that I could see) those who were on the $10 internet plan (what you have). My T-zones is $5.99, and all the posters I saw were on the same plan.
We'll see if this outage is intermittent or what.

How to get Unlimited Data on AT&T

I'm just transferring this thread from the Atrix forum for those that would be interested in getting onto (or back onto) AT&T's unlimited data plan rather than the tiered plans they offer.
It requires an IPhone 2G in order to do it and a sim card that has not been previously registered on an IPhone.
It does work, I did it on my own lines with ease.

I have a friend that does that...you send him $$ and your login info..he sends you back a sim with unlimited data

AT&T's policies do allow anyone with an unlimited plan to keep their unlimited data when moving to a different smartphone, so if any rep says otherwise, then tell them to look it up in their reference material, called myCSP......just a little inside info

Can't find a iPhone 2g locally to save my life. Anyone know who offers this service

Just throwing this out there, starting this month they will be throttling data speeds if you go over 2GB on the unlimited data plans. You can go over but it will be sloooow.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but being a sales rep, tons of people come in obsessing over unlimited data. Especially the ones who barely use a gig a month.

I barely use a gig a month, but it's better to be safe than sorry...

I'll save $5 and keep it under 2gb.

I was lucky enough to have an unlimited data plan grandfathered in from last year when i had my previous Android cell (Motorola Backflip)

*Crosses fingers* please don't say you liked that phone lol
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium

Hey, I was just wondering, does it have to be an unactivated sim card that's never been used on a 2g.. or does it just have to be a sim card that hasn't been
used on a 2g phone..
and i have an old 2g phone, it lights up but you can't really go into anything on it.. basically a black screen just lit up.. it's recognized in itunes too..

it served it's purpose for a year and a half... made the mistake of getting the FIRST android based phone AT&T released... did i like it? 50/50

I had one for three days because I HAD to try Android. Had promise but fell short. I still have people bringing them into the store for service every now and then these days.

well i guess i got lucky... never had to had my phone go in for service.... most issues i was able to resolve on my own... might end up selling it to a dev on another forum

since at&t counts data in bytes,
it would make sense that your speed would lower after 20001 bytes, right?

I have no idea but are you still tethering? Like as in are you still tethering hours later? If so, you might want to watch how much you're tethering. If you push it too far, AT&T can find out and put you on a tethering plan.

Right now I'm on Sprint and would like to move over to AT&T but like most of you want unlimited data. If I switch I will get 3 lines (family plan) 2 iphone 4s's for my two sisters and 1 Samsung Skyrocket for me. Anyone know if its possible for us to get unlimited data?

Free wifi tethering now free from verizon

Sorry if this is old news(I didnt see a thread about it), but finally the govt does a little something right. And its kinda nice to see greedy Verizon get slapped in the face. :/
hxxp://gizmodo.com/5930610/verizon-officially-cant-force-you-to-pay-20-for-tethering-anymore?tag=verizon
sorry im a new user cant post links

Unless I missed something it doesn't necessarily mean that tethering will be free. What the govt. did was slap them on the wrist for blocking tethering apps in the app store, forcing customers to use their paid app. I could be wrong, though. Anyhow I've heard that a number of people were already tethering anyhow. Just don't go overboard on the data usage even if you have an unlimited plan.

this.

It wasn't just for blocking users from using third party programs, it was for charging LTE subscribers to tether, period (especially users on limited tiered pricing). That is why the share everything plans all include free hotspot now.

Now I'm tempted to get a share everything plan. Can anyone recommend any apps to wifi tether on the market?

Would you even need a 3rd party app on a shared plan if hotspot is included? Wouldn't that use the built-in app?

If you are on share everything, then you can just use the built-in hotspot.

Here is an interesting article regarding FCC's ruling:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57...eans-to-you-faq/?part=rss&subj=news&tag=title

People definitely need to read that CNET article. Anyone on an older unlimited plan still has to pay to tether. It's only existing customers with a fixed amount of data per month who can tether for free.

This ruling makes no sense at all. Why would it allow wifi tether on tiered plans but not unlimited?

im goingto guess because the deal was for the 4g range not the 3g range.... unliited plans werent for 4g only 3g.

Not entirely true... there was a period of a few months, I believe, where you could get 4G and still be unlimited. I'm pretty sure I fall in that bucket

Me too! I got my Bionic for free, since it was 100 bucks with a 2 year contract minus some discount I got for using more than 1 GB of data a month. Still unlimited data, no unlimited talk. Still 91 dollars a month for basic service.

How did you get a bionic early? They didn't release it until after they stopped offering the unlimited plan. I signed up the last weekend unlimited was available and the only 4g phones that were out were the Tbolt, Revolution, and Charge.

I got my bionic in December, then called in February and got switched to unlimited data. They had a loophole for a while where unlimited hotspot was listed in the features section of the website, but it failed if you tried to add it to your plan. You just had to call and many reps would tell you you needed to be on unlimited data to get that, so you just asked then to switch you to unlimited data. The unlimited data was even 29.99 instead of 30 for 2 or 4GB. Plus, if you had any kind of group service discount it applied to the unlimited data but not the tiered plan.

It actually makes COMPLETE sense (for Verizon's sake) - since you will run through your allotted 2GB or whatever plan you have. If you have unlimited, then you can just power your home WiFi or whatever you want, which is not what you're paying for when you have unlimited data for your cell phone.
Anyway, this is XDA, so this shouldn't really matter to anyone here...turn that 1 to a 0 with an SQL editor and enjoy your free tethering.

I have a stock charge and am using foxfi free tethering on unlimited plan. I will have a bionic in 3 days

Seconded. I bought mine release day with an upgrade and the only question I asked the sales rep was that I make sure I stay on unlimited data, which I have. In theory, the ruling should support free tethering on all 4G service, including unlimited.
