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

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!!
I have an iphone on t-mobile and I am using the unlimited web for phones and unlimited texting plan for $19.99. using internet2.voicestream.com apn it lets me have data and it works great on iphone.
I am wondering if the same thing can be done on the G1? i might be getting a cheap G1 for fun from a friend and I dont wanna switch data plans. What are my options? thank you
unfortunatly, no. I switched from unlocked iphone on tmobile with 9.99 unlimited web data (internet2.voicestream.com) to a mytouch 3g for 3g speeds. However mytouch refused to accept my 9.99 data plan. at first the data worked perfectly... for about 4 hours. after that it started redirecting me to tmobiles upsell page, saying that my current data plan is not compatible with this phone. I tried to change APNs, fake user, and more but it didnt work.
the mytouch 3g data plan is 30$ if you get it from the website. however I called customer support trying to get them to get my 9.99 data plan to work for the mytouch. the refused but they did give me the mytouch data plan for 25$ (5$ off regular price).
If you do decide to go to mytouch data plan I suggest you call tmobile customer support and play dumb asking why the 9.99 data plan is not working on your android phone. After some tests they will redirect you to tech support which can give you the 25$ plan.
its worth it though. 3G speeds are amazing. Im getting around 120KB/s in NYC on 3G, as opposed to 9-10KB/s I had on EDGE.
Maybe because you have mytouch. Maybe it would work for g1? People on other forums talk about it working for g1... I'm sure there's a Hack like there is for iPhone back with the t zones hack
sorry, but no. The only reason a 10$ data plan works on the iphone is because T-Mobile does not carry the iPhone, and therefore does not have special rules set up for it. If you use an iPhone on T-Mobile's network, they see it as a regular phone.
Phones like the G1 and mytouch are both T-Mobile. They have special restrictions set up on them, most likely based on the IMEI # or something of that level.
Damn. I guess those people who had it only had it until t mobile caught on. Well i would be swithing back and forth from g1 to iPhone and so I can't get android plan because iPhone wouldn't work. Is the g1 worth it without data plan? I have wifi at home and at school so it's ok.. Would I still get mail notification etc and so forth? Facebook widgets...
iphone will still work with the android plan most likely. you would just need to change iphone's APN to epc.tmobile.com.
to be honest if you dont have data for g1 it makes it kind of pointless, since you already have an iPhone.
Oh so it's because it's TMO branded.. What of I get like an htc hero which is not tmi branded.. Would my webconnect work?
So, I've read that people were able to get 3g speeds on their 10$ internet plan using epc.tmobile.com . I have the web2go/phonefirst plan, internet2.voicestream.com works but it is only edge speed. When I try epc.tmobile.com, it says that I need to upgrade my subscription. Anyone know how to get the epc.tmobile.com to work?
No, that loophole was was filled awhile ago.
I guess it only works with the 5.99 tzones then? I am 100% sure on that...
im using internet2.voicestream.com and i have working MMS and FULL 3G connection with 3G speeds.
What is your download speed using speedtest.net app in kB/s? And also, how did you get your mms to work? I need help on that :\
Im on the $5 tzones plan.. Have been since nexus one launch... Works fie using epc.tmobile.com, im getting 2-3mbps downloads in most places. Also im not sure if they monitor bandwidth but use pandora A LOT and also tether
i am having issues with mms though. but i think it might be a problem with my rom cause it worked fine with vanilla 2.1
ok I have a question..... if Warez is illegal here and gets threads deleted and locked, how is screwing the phone company over ok?

its not really screwing them over... fact of the matter is when the plans like tzones were offered, those were the internet plans of the time so anyone who has them has just had them grandfathered through with contract extensions and such... i payed for unlimited data then and i am paying for it now...

Paying less money for unlimited data is one of the many perks of being loyal to a company for as long as those grandfathered customers have, without giving in to the temptation of other carriers with more features and more capable phones. Besides, contract free, the data plan on T-Mobile breaks down to $10 for smartphones anyway.
YOU'RE stealing!
T-Zones works for me.
Tmobile knows I have a unlocked Nexus and they know my plan.
Everything works.
I had 7.1 MB download a few months back only happened a few times though I have the web2go plan

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.

is he using a different apn? If he is, please share
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.

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.
So I was just sharing that I did manage to get T-Mobile up and running even though it was a pain in the butt to figure out the first time. The first issue I had was I had to get the SIM unlocked, which is always the hardest step it seems for everyone. I used unlock4moto.com per everyone here and the annoying thing was they have a PayPal payment system and they don't take Walmart Moneycards. So I had to wait until I got my paycheck to get it paid. Then I got the code before I woke up so I tried using it using the T-Mobile SIM I bought from a cheap T-Mobile prepaid Wal-Mart phone and it worked and didn't say anything about Subsidy just that it was unsuccessful. The biggest problem I had was that I would try flashing the radio and it said it was unknown, which was just a matter of me forgetting to flash the build.prop. After that, it was smooth as cake.
So if you are wanting to try this but not sure, it's not a bad idea. The biggest problem is the 2G is slow as heck but switching to Straight Talk would fix that but that's $45 a month instead of $30.
Same here. I'm on the 100 minutes, unlimited text, unlimited data for $30/month plan. I had the $25/month plan on Virgin but I needed a good qwerty phone.
With the spectrum swaps they're doing, hopefully T-Mobile will roll out faster data on the compatibile bands in more areas soon. I'm in Portland, and at least I get pretty consistent rates up near the top of 2G speeds.
