I have an AT&T Tilt unlocked and am using it for T-Mobile. The phone works great with the exception of a few things. What do I need to do in order for my Internet and MMS messages to work?
Also does anyone know of any shortcut for text messaging? It seems that you have to go through so many steps to start a text.
Thanks!
settings are different with other carriers
I am not exactly sure what settings would have to be changed to make the internet work but I know I have read it a few times for different ROMS, I just didn't need the advice since mine works. Search the forums and find out what TMobile runs off of. As far as how quick it takes to get to texts, you can change a key to them and there are a ton of programs that offer shortcuts.
for MMS the setttings need to be:
Server name: T-Mobile MMS
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port Number: 8080
server address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
connect via: T-mobile MMS
Wap version: WAP 2.0
for the internet go to connection settings and for the connection name enter
T-mobile Data
access point name: wap.voicestream.com
user name and password leave blank
thanks for the quick response. Where exactly do I go to enter this information?
thanks again

Thank you for the link
it also depends on which internet plan u have? if its the 5.99 tzones plan, its a little more difficult to set up, let me know if u have that one and i'll tell u how.. if ur using the 19.99 plan, simply go to settings-->connections-->connection setup, and set it up for tmobile USA. it'll also set up ur mms at the same time. good luck

oh wait... ur using the tilt rom... thats probably NOT gonna be there... i'd advise u to flash to a different rom.. sorry
Hi,
to speed up your textmessaging you can copy the files tnsms(for SMS) or tnmms (for MMS) for the windowsdirectory in your startupfolder.
These files open a new SMS or MMS an you wont have to do many steps.
Then you have possibility to choose these applications in your buttonapplication, where you can assign applications to buttons.
yes i have th 5.99 plan can you still help?
sms settings on tilt
Sorry mms settings......
Does anyone know where these are ?
my buddy is on tmobile and it took me a good day to figure out the correct settings... I honestly don't understand why tmobiles mms settings are so hard to setup while atts is really easy
hey, just as a warning, i was never able to get the 5.99 settings to work on the original tilt rom, and another user on this forum also never got it to work. the 19.99 internet works fine on the tilt rom. dunno its weird. however when i flashed over to a different rom, it worked no problems.
1- go to connections, and add new connection cellular line, gprs 3G, call it whatever you want
2- access point name: wap.voicestream.com, leave the next one blank and then finish.
3- now click on manage existing connections, click on proxy settings on the bottom right tab
4. make sure both boxes are checked, and enter 216.155.165.50 as the proxy server.
5- click on advanced, and double click on http: and change the port to 8080. leave everything else the same. ok out to the original connections settings screen.
6- click on the advanced tab on the bottom. click on select networks and set both of them to my work network
thats it.. IE should work now no problems, and set any pop3 email accounts to connect to my work network. good luck

i have no idea how to flash to a new rom. Is this something that you think i can do easily and without ruining my phone?
I am running into the same issue too, no MMS, but Internet works good on the 5.99, so i am really wanting the MMS to work.. I hope i dont have to have the $19.99 to have it to work.. that would suck! HELP!!!
Guys,
I have performed a search and tried various settings but have been unable to find a combination that works.
I cannot get the MMS on my unlocked, purchased directly from Google, T-mobile Nexus One to send.
Additionally, I am using the APN of internet2.voicestream.com so that I can use the $10 Web2Go internet instead of the epc.tmobile.com.
I have tried using both the stock messaging system as well as Handcent.
I am currently on Froyo but I also had the same problems with Eclair.
What are the tried and true settings for my particular configuration? Is anyone out there doing the same exact thing as me and have you been successful with sending MMS's?
you need two apns
FROYO by default will add epc one... don't delete it. however, go to APN settings and change the APN type to mms
create another APN for internet2 and set its type to default
arkavat,
Thanks a bunch! I tried this before but I did not properly set the internet2.voicestream.com APN type to "default". That did the trick.
Which APN should I apply the "supl" type to? internet2 or epc?
Can either of you post a line by line of the mms settings? This may come in handy to enable mms on my old g1 that my gf is using without a data plan.
I had the same issue, the mms settings helped but something else helped.
Send two sms and two mms to your phone (from yourself) and that fixed it for me.
OH MAN! I just spent 2 hours checking every line and trying every combination. Follow the above instructions about the mms and default APN settings exactly..... REBOOT your phone, then it will work. I didn't reboot and it drove me nuts.

Edit: Nevermind..dumb question. I need to try to get my gf to sign up for the $10 internet plan if it's still available.
for MMS I used just the factory settings.. epc.tmobile.com, etc etc..
However.. I changed the name of it from T-mobile US to T-mobile US-MMS
then down at the bottom where it says APN type.. you type in "mms".. all in lower case letters..
Now simply make a new APN... with the settings
Name T-mobile US
APN internet2.voicestream.com
APN Type "default" (all lower case again)

For the new internet2 apn, we need to know if there's anything that needs to be entered for the other lines.. like proxy, port, mms proxy, mms port, etc..username..password.. that's what we're asking for.

Everything else is blank.
Thanks guys... one last question. Do you guys get internet access with the internet2.voicestream.com apn?

Thanks... I need to get my gf to sign up for the $10 web plan if it's still available. She's getting nothing... no internet, and no MMS, which is what she really wants to work.
Has anyone had any problem using a lot of data while on this plan? Will they notice?
I noticed that in the Manage Account Usage page under Recent Usage, with only 244.6/Unlimited minutes, the little bar below it is about 1/4 of the way filled. Is that normal or does that mean that we have a 1 GB softcap now?
The price makes it worth my while to go easy on the data, but I'd still rather watch an episode on hulu every day, if possible.
arg nm it just started working lol.
Anyone here has the Even More Unlimited Web Plan ($10) working here?
I am wondering if it is the same as web2go

I am on an Even More Plus plan and it works.
Confirmed Even More Plan Unlimited Web Plan works great.
I think it's faster than Tzone.
Hi
I am having trouble sending an recieving photo messages, i am on orange payg and have just spent 30min talking to them and they dont know thr reason why.
My APN settings are
Name Orange MMS
APN orangemms
Proxy not set
Port not set
User Name Orange
Password Multimedia
Server not set
MMSC ://mms.orange.co.uk (has http before it)
MMS Proxy 192.168.224.10
MMS Port 8080
MCC 234
MNC 33
Authentication type PAP
APN type mms
Is there anything wrong with this???
Have you tried selecting the 'Auto-retrieve' and 'Roaming auto-retrieve' in: Messaging > Settings > (scroll down) Multimedia message settings? As for sending, try enabling 'Data roaming' in Mobile network settings. I am thinking that because Orange/T-mobile have merged, maybe you are trying to send/receive the message over the old T-Mobile network. Just a thought. Hope it works for you.
I've got the same settings as you, except one minor difference, I have a / at the end of the mmsc (ie http://mms.orange.co.uk/)
I have exactly the same problem and have also tried phoning Orange. They just talked me through the settings but I was already set up correctly. Very annoying! I would love to hear of a solution to this problem.

I can confirm that this problem has been around for me long before the merger, basically since I got my phone back in July.
@FloridaK - I also have the slash at the end, but it's not working.
Like the thread title says, I'm in London at the moment. I unlocked my Captivate before leaving and bought a SIM card from 3. Unlimited data, 3000 SMS, and 300 minutes for 15 quid ... not bad.
Trouble is that I can't get any sort of data access. Voice and SMS work, but no data is coming through. I have full bars, but normally there is an E or H to the left of them with up and down arrows and that is gone. Google logins aren't working and no internet for any applications.
I've been reading a little bit and something about APN numbers perhaps?
Thanks
Make sure that the data radio frequencies are compatible and if so make sur they are enabled, can't remember what exactly to do but searching should find results easily
See if data roaming is disabled because the radio frequencies are probably not the same as the normally accepted ones

Aye, it's the APNs.
You have to get the settings from 3. As far as i know, the cappy does support the 3G bands there.
a quick google search gave me this
Name - 3
Apn - three.co.uk
proxy - not set
port - not set
Username - not set
Password - not set
Server - not set
MMSC - http://mms.um.three.co.uk:10021/mmsc
MMS proxy - mms.three.co.uk
MMS port - 8799
MCC - 234
MNC - 20
APN type - not set

Give that a shot. In case you dont know how to get to the settings, it is. Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names > (then hit the bottom leftmost capacitive button) and press new apn.
Good Luck i hope it all works out
So it's a combination of the below answers. For anyone looking to do this you want get to the APN settings page then and make a new profile but only set the apn to be "3services" no quotes. I tried three.co.uk, but that doesn't work. 3services works just fine though and speeds are pretty reasonable. Also, you must enable data roaming as the above poster mentioned as well.
Thanks for the help guys much appreciated.

That's the thing though. Yours is T-Mobile and not AT&T.

The issue lies in that AT&T has locked the ability to edit the APN Type field. Where you can normal type in: internet,mms,supl,hipri to get your MMS to work they have disabled the option. Those apps will not work. You need to follow the above mentioned comment and edit the system files with the correct settings.

lg g flex d950 att straight talk.apn type work around
1. First pull out sim(do not power down)
2. No apns will be shown as there is no sim but add new anyways.
3. Fill in using all data needed. Input (internet,mms,supl,hipri) for apn type.
4. Save new apn.
5. Turn off and put in sim. Then power on once in.
6. Do not use the new apn type, use the original straight talk apn. (The newly made apn is working behind the first apn.
6. That's it!
