I have an unlocked iphone 4s on tmobile's network. I have a micro sim card in the phone, from tmobile, and am only getting EDGE not 3G and i'm in a 3G area. I was told i could get 3S with an unlocked phone. Is there a way to do this so i'm on 3G and not EDGE?

View 15 Replies View RelatedAny thoughts on whether its worth the extra money to buy the 3G versus 2G when I am only using it for the phone and apps? There difference is about $200 for an unlocked 2G versus $330 for a 3G. I also have several apps programs that I used on my ipod touch that I will use on the iphone.
My husband purchased me an unlocked IPhone 4S. My sim card from my current cell phone is too large to fit in my new Iphone. My current cell phone carrier is Tmobile. Should I go to the tmobile store and purchase a smaller Sim card?

View 23 Replies View RelatedI purchased an unlocked 4s to use with my T-Mobile SIM. I had previously been using a 3GS on T-Mobile. Since the update to version 5, apple has removed the settings toggle to disable the 3G radio. This causes a strange issue when 3G is forced to be on, after every call, the radio resets its self, dropping to 1 bar and searching before reconnecting. On version 5.0.1 I was able to jailbreak the phone and install a second party toggle to disable the 3G radio, this restored the normal operation of the phone on the T-Mobile network. But since upgrading to 5.1, I am unable to install this toggle, and it has made the phone really annoying to use. Why has apple removed this toggle? Have they moved it or is there another way to disable it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI activated my iphone 4 to tmobile from att. Receiving/making call and text works well. But iMessage and Facetime is not working with my phone number, it just sending with my email address!I tried to change the receiving address to phone number but on my phone (setting-message-iMessage section), phone number bar is showing as verifying; same as on Facetime. Also its gray out and not possible to tab though. And finally verifying status changes to error... Even though my phone number seems as correct format with +1-XXX-XXX-XXXX. I have ios5.1 with 4.12.01?
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy factory unlocked iPhone 4S on T-Mobile cant receive Emoji icons from an ATT iPhone. Instead I see a bunch of weird symbols, but the ATT iPhone can receive emoji's from my phone. Also some of my friends have a verizon iPhone and I can receive their Emoji icons, and they can receive mine. At one point I was able to receive emoji icons from ATT iPhones.

I'm trying to unlock my Iphone 4 version 5.1.1, I have an OK from AT&T to unlock, the question is Can I use Tmobile unactivated sim card just to proceed with the unlocking procedure?

With the iPhone, I'm paying $71 a month for TMobile with the Unlimited Data & Text plan along with 500mins. I have my office Blackberry, so normally I just use that to call people, so no big deal on the lack of phone mins. What are you guys paying? I'm looking to reduce my monthly bill somehow.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have just recently purchased an HTC HD2 from Tmobile USA and got it unlocked to use it on Wind Mobile here in Canada. So far the phone is great but was wondering if anyone knew how to get rid of the Tmobile garbage that is on the phone. I would like to set my music as ringtones, set Wind Mobile as an APN to use data and tether, etc, etc. I dont want a phone that will be similar to the garbage phones Canadians get all the time here.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy N97 has US AT&T 3g radio frequencies. I have a T-mobile sim card with unlimited data and an AT&T card with very limited data.With an AT&T sim card the N97 talks to the AT&T USA towers at "3.5G" speeds no problem. Beauty!But when I put my T-mobile sim card in it it will only connect to T-mobile towers. It sees that there is a T-mobile tower and an ATT tower no problem but it will only talk to the tmo tower.
If there is no T-mo tower it will connect to the ATT tower but it will not be at 3G just edge.I have tried to enter the apn settings manually but i am tripping up somewhere.Called T-mo and tier 3 tech support said that she could see no reason why it should not work. I pressed to find out if T-mo provisioned their sims to work at 3G soeeds ONLY on t-mo towers but she said that that was not the case.
N97 user manual mentions apn alterations being contingent on a PIN2 number coming off the sim card, but that did not sound tright to t-mo support.
Am i missing a very obvious thing like a switch called "turn on data roaming" ? My Nexus1 has that.
I have been waiting for the hand held software 5.0 to be released for about 3 months now. Every other company is way ahead and already moving onto the next software update. The other versions for my 8520 from other carriers do not show up on the application loader, even after completing every step. T-mobile needs to step its game up.

View 6 Replies View RelatedPerhaps I'm just not using the right search keywords, but all the instructions I find aren't working. Mostly because my phone doesn't seem to have the same lines that everyone else is listing.
For example, I typically see this -
Profile1 Info
1. Profile Name: T-Mobile GPRS
2. GPRS Setting:
+1. Gateway:
+++1. IP address: 216.155.165.50
+++2. IP port: 9201
+2. APN: wap.voicestream.com
+3. Login ID: anonymous
+4. Password:

3. Homepage URL: http://wap.myvoicestream.com/
For MMS, I have these from my E635 as well.
MMS Settings

5. Bearer: GPRS only
Then, trying to follow another's step-by-step instructions, I'm still having trouble following along. Here's my step-by-step to the point that I get lost. Open Menu, tap Settings, tap Messaging, scroll down to Messaging Settings, tap Multimedia Message, tap MMS Profiles... and this is where it gets confusing for me. Whether I try to edit one of the preset profiles, or add my own, these are the lines I'm offered to work with:
editing the MEdia Net profile -
Set Name
Access Name
Auth Type
User ID
Password (user ID and PW aren't able to be edited in this profile)
Protocol (either HTTP or WAP)
Home URL
Proxy Address
Linger Time (sec.)
Advanced Settings
And in the Adv Settings, I have -
Static IP (to check, or unckeck, a box)
Local Phone IP (not highlighted, ie, able to be edited)
Static DNS (to check, or uncheck, a box)
Server 1
Server 2 (neither server lines are able to be edited in this profile)
Traffic Class (down arrow sellection, with Subscribed as the only selection available)
And in adding a new profile, everything that was previously unable to be edited, can now be: User ID, Password, Static IP #, and Servers 1 & 2 #'s. I've tried every combination of URLs that I could find:
Home URL - http://216.155.174.84/servelts/mms
Homepage URL - Homepage URL: http://wap.myvoicestream.com
Along with every combination of IP #s that I could find:
216.155.165.50
10.168.200.50
And I'm striking out everywhere. I'm hoping someone understands the babble I've typed in here, and can make sense enough of this to be able to help me. I don't care about getting on the internet with the phone (no data plan), but I just want to be able to send/receive pics and videos.
I got a the blackberry storm 2 9550 and I had it unlock to work on tmobile network and my email and internet is working but any 3 party app the need use the Internet won't work.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI had my Bold 9700 delivered from Saudi Arabia. I was absolutely in love with the phone with its incredible speed and my favorite thing about it was the 3G network. It worked absolutely great in Egypt. When I moved back to the US (Ive been here 3 days now), I can only use T-Mobiles EDGE network. If I search manually for networks, it finds AT&Ts 3G network, but I cant use it since Im T-Mobile and not AT&T. When I went to the T-Mobile store, they told me that since T-Mobile didnt sell me the phone, my phone wouldnt find their 3G network. Any idea what I can do to fix this? The phone is brand new, and its a shame that I cant use its best feature
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe adapters are out there. Would any of them fit under the battery cover without bending it or it not securing correctly? maybe an adapter that you cut your sims to fit?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently acquired a curve 8900 (Tmobile) through work. I currently have an LG Lotus from Sprint, with all of my contacts in it. It's in the neighborhood of 500 or so, so I obviously don't want to transfer them by hand individually. What is my best bet to get them from my lotus to my new blackberry? I normally have it done at the store, but I didn't know if they would be cooperative in doing that since it's two different carriers.
