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!!!
hello everyone! Well I'm fairly new to this but I have followed all the rules, I think. I have search high and how for a fix with no help.
MY PROBLEM is that I cant send or receive MMS messages. I recently unlocked my tilt so that I could use it on tmobile-- thanks to jockyw and I did the hardspl that to-- pof. Thats all I have done. I have my network set to tmobile and I get edge service. I just cant figure it out. Any help would be great.
Did you also change your MMS server settings? When in the MMS folder click Menu > MMS Options > Servers tab .. You need to make sure you have the correct MMS server settings here. Sorry I don't have the settings for T-Mobile for you to enter.
Hello
1st. sorry; I have bad English language.
I've an problem in my phone X8
I cannot sending or receiving MMS when data mobile is disable
I tried SmartAPN ... this prog is close the 3g and data mobile enable but I can't sent MMS
when 3G enable I can sent/receive MMS
how i can fix this prob.
info.
1. I using GingerXD v12 ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486
2. In SE ROM 2.1 when dataconnection disable i can sent/receive MMS
thank yuo ,
It's a known bug on CM7 (and even CM6 i think), the Data Traffic really needs to be on so you can send or receive one.. If you don't want to waste money by having it on you need to use one of those programs you mentioned so it changes the APN of the internet connection to a false one.
EDIT: if you have problems even with SmartAPN, go to your MMS APN proprieties and change the APN Type from "mms" to "mms,supl" (no quotes and no spaces).. and if you still have problems, use APN OnOf instead of smartAPN.. but remember, data traffic needs to be on.
Hi - i have the same problem - but only on GingerCruzt. I can send and receive MMS fine on GingerDX.
Impster
I also had problem, but "mms,supl" works fine! Thanks!
thank you all ,
i was try the solution but I have the same prob. :-(
Hello All,
I'm trying to get a stock Verizon OG Droid to work on Pageplus.
I activated it recently and the 3G data and text messaging seems to work just fine but picture messages/mms aren't received nor sent ...
I assume this has something to do with a apn settings or some options, any help would be appreciated
Thanks,
Pete
You have to create a second APN for MMS in addition to the mobile data APN.
You should be able to find the necessary information in the help pages of your provider - or use google.
Interesting thing is i have tried sending that phone smaller pictures and it seems to receive them, can this be a MMS size limit issue ?
How does one resolve this ?
I am not sure if the APN would cure this problem anymore or has anything to do with it...

I'm pretty sure there's a size limit on MMS too.
Usually the picture is resized when attaching it.
Perhaps i should check the APN settings because it seems very flaky still...
I could not find out where the settings are on this phone, can someone point them out to me ?
Thanks,
Pete
Settings > Wireless > Mobile network > APNs > press menu key > select "Add APN"
Something like this - I don't have any stock 2.x devices to check...
I can't use this phone for MMS , pictures or groups texts are not working. Anyone experiencing this??
You have to setup the Access Point Names for MMS and internet manually. The phone is new so your network doesn't send out settings for it yet.
You have to find the right info on your networks provider help pages.
