My girlfriend just bought me a att tilt/kaiser/8925 and I have Tmobile. I have unlocked the phone and am now having trouble getting it to connect to the internet, I have tried the settings from my old mda to connect through wap but I get an error every time. Also I dont know if I need to change mms setting or anything else, please someone help, I have been reading these boards for years and I cant find anything about usa tmobile settings
Look at the thread for the q-mobile rom in the upgrading section and theres settings there. theres also a cab that automatically sets up the settings which worked for me but its said that they are wrong.
I have a verizon touch pro 2 that is running on tmobile network. I have the mighty rom and the arcsoft cab but I do not know the setting to set it back right. When we first did this we had it set and the mms worked perfect. Then the phone reset to verizon some how. When I set it back to tmobile the mms setting were messed up. Does anyone know what I need to set the phone to. A guy did all the work and now I am having trouble getting the info from him so I have to figure this out alone.
Thanks
I had a similar problem. I got the phone unlocked but I never had the settings. It took forever but I eventually by luck got the right exact settings I needed. I have a sprint TP2 with Tmobile service. I dunno if the phone will matter but it should work. Here is the link to the post and follow the instructions for the settings that someone posted for me. It work and Im grateful.

I just tried the setting in there. I have to go to work so I will post back tonight if it worked or not.
ok. lets hope it does
So far no. Now it is saying that it "Dialed epc.tmobile.com can not connect for an unknown reason. "
I also tried wap.voicestream.com and the same thing. I need help it wont connect.
it also will not let me connect to anything data so it seems to be my data connection causing this problem
it says that for me sometimes too, but mines work anyways. did u do the same data(T-Mobile Data) for both internet and private (when it says "programs that automatically connect to"). Both should be the same exact setting. After u do the whole process for internet just pick T-Mobile Data in the drop down for Private cause it has the information u just configured.
I did do that. And I had nothing. BUT this morning it worked. I did nothing diff from lastnight. It just started to work and has worked all day. I do not know what or why it all of a sudden worked. Oh well it works now.
Thank you for your help.
No problem . Your very much welcome.
On my Phone(Andromeda 2.0 Themed), I get the indication of having 3g or any signal at all and the minute I attempt to send a message, make a call, or surf the web it is unable to send that message, unable to make that call, and unable to surf the web. Help on how to fix this?
NOTE: A flash back to stock DID NOT help this problem at all.
EDIT: Changing APN isn't really working(Cant leave the APN type as not set because it auto sets it to internet+mms when I save) and I am starting to get a little frustrated. The reception was really working fine earlier today but now its just weird all over. Please help me out you guys, I really need this working.
EDIT2: Please help guys, I really need my service up for tomorrow.
EDIT3: I am going to AT&T today to swap out my SIM card!!!! I am all Odin'ed out and I will check back if this works.
First try to enable airplane mode. Then turn it off.
If that does not work check your apn settings, under wireless and network, mobile networks, access points

Doing that now.... The signal bar indicates no connected network.... Trying the second thing you suggested....
For the second option I am under Wireless and Network/Mobile Networks/Access Points.
My options from there are AT&T 310 410(the text under it says wap.cingular)
What do i do from there?????
That reads correct. Unless you are on rogers. Hmmm. I am on the same rom but do not have the same issue. You may want to manually configure you're apn. You may want to search the captivate forum for at&t apn settings. I think you can find them in one of the stickies
I am on att dude. Thanks for the advice. You are positive its the APN though? This happened to me on Phoenix Reloaded too.

No I am not sure, I have not had your problem but this is where I would start if it did. The apn settings are posted in the captivate development stickies, captivate directory
Okay, so I configured the APN settings to what was found in the thread. Problem is the only thing I cannot configure is the APN type. Hm. Any help?
I am sorry I hope someone who has done this reads this and has a suggestion but I have not had to do this
Read through the sticky, maybe yet has been discussed
Read through it and nothing. It wont let me keep the APN type as not set and it automatically sets it to internet+mms. Any ideas?
Have you posted in the andromeda thread? Maybe the devs may have some ideas
I just did, hopefully they have an answer and if they dont hopefully someone will post an answer here....
I had the same issue back a few weeks ago. I called att, got a replacement phone, and it did it again. Turned out to be a bad SIM.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
So do I just need a new sim card???
Well, this sim card JUST started doing this. So are you sure it is just the sim? I mean, if I go to the store to get a new sim, will they ask to see my phone? Will I have to flash back to stock before I get a new SIm?

Do you think the person in the store will have any idea what a custom rom is? Chances are they will change it no questions asked
Okay, do you think I should just play it safe and reset to stock though?
There is no harm in doing so.

Well, thanks, I will head first thing in the morning.
I got the same problem at certain locations, such as my university. Haven't been able to get much help... Gonna try getting the SIM changed as it's a pretty old SIM. Weird thing is that it works fine on my Sony Ericsson G705/W715.
So almost two months of owning my Captivate that I got from Rogers (BNIB from Kijiji) and I noticed that at a certain area in my school, I have 3/5 bars of signal yet I can't seem to text/call and use the network. Is this a network problem or phone problem? Or can it also be my SIM? My SIM card is pretty old. However everything was fine when I use my Sony Ericsson W715 in the same area.
I should add that my friends on the same network beside me, they can text/call fine, which leads me to believe that this is a phone problem. A poster over at Howard Forums suggested network congestion, but it seems impossible because everyone else can use their phone fine.
I've tried different modems too, but it doesn't help. It's like my Captivate doesn't want to work at certain areas of my school.

I am just going to change my SIM. It is about 4 years old now and I think that means it needs to be replaced. I actually worked fine at my home before and now it cant even find a network. I am going to head out for a new SIM in a little bit, I will get back to you on if it works then.
I have the HTC Pure unlocked. I had recently changed over from Fido to Rogers. At first everything seemed to work properly, but somewhere, some how things changed. I can no longer use my browser(internet explorer). It seems that everything else works. I can get my mail (yahoo and Hotmail), I can check my facebook and get a weather update. All of those things tell me that I am receiving a connection, but my explorer doesn't work. I have been trying everything. I even did a hard boot and restored to original settings. I inputted all of the normal settings, but still nothing. What am I missing? Why would it work before, but not now.
I have looked at the treads and post here to try and find something but haven't been successful.
this is one example of the different settings I have found and tried with no luck.
For Internet Access/Texting
Name
Rogers
APN
internet.com
Username
wapuser1
Password
wap
MCC
302 (should already be filled in)
MNC
either 720 or 72 depending on your SIM card (should already be filled in)
Leave all other settings blank.
I also changed sim cards as well. I think (but am not 100%) everything went squirrely after I changed sim cards. Could this have something to do with the sim. When I got the card from Rogers I noticed it didn't gave the 3G labelling on there like the old one and inquired, but they told me that there is no difference in the cards.
Thanks in advance and if there already is a solution for this please re-direct me to it. I looked, but could not find the answer.
To further update, I have gotten another sim card, because I was told by the guy at Rogers that the sim I currently have is outdate. Today I have a new sim once again, but still have the same old problem. I have seen that there were a lot of views on this thread, but unfortunatelly no replies. I am sure there must be someone out there that knows what to do. I am open to suggestions.
Thanks.
OK, Just to let u all know, the problem is solved. I don't know how to delete the thread so I figured just put this up so I don't get any responces (like if that would actually happen, lol)
Hello there,
First time poster. I've had a hell of a time trying to figure out this problem with my LG L90 D415, updated to the latest version of Lolipop, which I bought advertised as "unlocked" off eBay and intended to use with Consumer Cellular (CC), a virtual GSM network using bandwidth from the AT&T and T-Mobile networks. Such a phone is supposed to work on their network. It is now rooted and ready to go. However, I cannot change the APN settings to use data. Under settings, if I try to create a new APN with a different MNC number, the new APN will automatically be deleted. The phone is supposedly unlocked, and does seem to be so as it accepts the CC sim card and I am able to send and receive calls with it. It is now rooted using the one-click script by avicohh method.
As a side note, I also cannot send or receive text messages from anyone other than a friend who is on T-Mobile. I've contacted CC's tech support and they swear its the fact that the APN is still locked on the phone. I therefore plan to fix this problem so I can add the CC network's APN to see if it makes a difference on my phone.
I have since rooted the phone using the one-click method. I was even able to delete the T-Mobile APN entry by using a combination of BusyBox, /system/app mover, and APNManager apps. However this does not stop any APN without the T-Mobile MNC from being auto-deleted in Settings -> Mobile Network - APNs.
I have downloaded and installed the Android SDK suite in anticipation of flashing a rom onto the phone as a last resort fix. However, I cannot find a link to a rom for the D415 which I am certain does not contain the T-Mobile firmware and bloatware on it, neither on LG's website nor here.
I am hoping someone here has heard of this problem before and has an idea of what I can do to fix this frustrating APN problem caused by T-Mobile.

I just tried it. No luck, but thank you for the link. Looks like it applied to the same problem, but solved it only for an older version of Android. It will not work with my phone which has Lolipop. My problem is that the new APN entries get auto-deleted, not that they are greyed out as that link described.
I have contacted LG and T-Mobile technical support, and they keep pointing fingers at each other and cannot help me. After much insistence, T-Mobile has suggested that I go into one of their stores to solve the problem, and if a support tech cannot help me there, then I should return the phone to the vendor, which is what I intend to do.
If anyone has a clue how to unlock the APN settings on this phone, please help!
