birmingham, al
Running a fresh 2.2 Pwned version WITHOUT the T-Zones hack. Had to switch to internet2.voicestream.com to get it to work, but it seems to be working now.
YMMV, but good luck.
2G with T-zones, san francisco bay area 12/26
NYC iPhone 2G 2.1.
I have tried everything hacking putting in tuns of APN's
I even have the total data plan for like 25 and i cant get internet to work.
HELP
dont see the 5.99 option to add in my tmobile account page
NEW PRICE INCREASES AS OF 2 WEEKS AGO:
The $9.99 HotSpot plan is only for access to T-Mobile's WiFi networks at Starbucks and other public areas. NO cellular network access is included.
If you already have the $19.99 total data network plan, you may want to stick with it, as the rates just increased to $24.99/$34.99 per month. T-Moblie says they now will not switch an iPhone to any other data network plan....not even the new $9.99 Web2Go plan (formerly the Tzones network plan). :(
Location: St. Louis, MO
Date: 11-30-2008
Speed: 305kbps
Internet, Youtube, Google Maps, Weather, everything works perfect!!
If you are lucky enough to have the $5.99 Tzones plan, DON'T CHANGE A THING! You are "grandfathered in", and should not have any problems with your network access.
...and remember: This is for CELLULAR network access only. If you have Wi-Fi, none of these extra cellular plans are required (you just have to be on WiFi to access the internet & email).
iPhone 2G, software 2.2
please help thanks in advance
With "Internet3.voicestream.com" it told me that I wasn't subscribed to a data plan.
But "Internet2.voicestream.com" seems to be working like a charm.
Khaldoun
MN, iPhone 2G w/2.2 software, jailbroken/unlocked
all data working still!
"Internet3.voicestream.com" didn't work for me and changing "data roaming" to on had no effect.
"Internet2.voicestream.com" works though painfully slow. . . like a modem.
i just up date and stuck.
now working
Thank you.
Also in my network settings, there is no APN, just VPN... does it work if i type it in there?
help!
Settings, General, Network, Turn VPN on
Description: Tmobile
Server: epc.tmobile.com

the top and bottom values I just filled in arbitrarily because they are required fields but it seems to work!
Seattle, WA 2/12/09
Description: Tmobile
Server: epc.tmobile.com
Account: t-zones
however i am having problems still connecting to the internet. i can get my email however non of my other internet functions will work...any insight/ideas/suggestions????
So to get APN you have to go to unlockit.co.vz but access it through your phone, and that allows you to create the APN so type epc.tmobile.com in the first line and leave the others blank and download it, then reboot the phone and it should show up in the settings.
If this doesn't work by itself then also download APN Editing from Cydia.

Grandfathered into T-Zones, $5.99/mo and still working!
also, tethering works too :P
Minneapolis, MN. iPhone 2G v2.2 Jailbroken
Still working on OS 3.0 updates.
the $6.99 tzones plan is still available; just be sure to tell the CSR that you have a Sony Ericsson or another 'dumbphone' that you want unlimited data on.
for the APN use:
internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com
epc.tmobile.com and wap.voicestream.com did not work and redirects you to an Upsell page that tmobile tries to sell you the full web2go package :)
verified on an iPhone 2G 8GB w/OS 3.0 jailbroken/unlocked.
For those who were already grandfathered into tzones; epc.tmobile.com still works fine for me on my 3G 8GB unlocked/jailbroken iPhone w/OS 3.0
Location: Minneapolis, MN
you have to reset network settings in
Settings=>General=>Reset=>Reset Network Settings
it’ll reboot and turn on airplane mode right away.
and then I set the APN to “epc.tmobile.com”
then turn airplane mode off and BADA - BOOM!
btw i see a cydia icon on desktop and cycorder next to it, are they related?
tmobile sim card in the iPhone, it's unlocked.
Then you would basically need to call tmobile and ask for the tzones
unlimited data plan. Tell them you have a razr or non smartphone.
Then go into settings - network - apn and follow the above :)
Main thing is to get tzone, you may need to use the internet2.voicestream.com
as apn
and i have itunes 7 and it doesn't see iphone. suggestions?
as for itunes; try a few other usb ports to plugin to. could be a bad cable
T-Mobile Total Internet Plan
http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/Plans/cell-phone-p...
you can only get tzones by basically 'hacking' the customer service rep. tell them you have a nonsmartphone; like a razr or rokr and you want to get internet on it but don't want to pay the full $20for the total internet :)
however you have to be unlocked via the redsnow/ultrasnow hack to get these options
i don't have an account with tmobile . So i'm hoping to get on the tzone plan @5.99 or 6.99 just data.
greets seamonky420 ( i used a few tutorial you've written thanks)
i think i would try the code and tell them you are looking to switch from AT&T and have an unlocked Razr you just want unlimited browsing on and was told to get the tzones since your phone doesn't have a full browser :)
good luck buddy! :)
Thanks!
didn't work, tried the internet3.voicestream.com, didn't work. Finally I tried the internet2.voicestream.com and everything went fine after that one.
I think so. the 30 reps i called wont help me do it.
they keep telling me to sign up for the $9.99 and acted like butts to me.
i even tried internet3.voicestream.com , epc.tombile.com , wap.voicestream.com . none which seems to work at all. every time i load safari i get error msg stating that i have no internet connections.
any solutions to this problem will be greatly appreciated!!
so like the above poster says, be persistent and mean in a nice way.
thanks to this page i have this awesomely cheap plan and i works like wonders. many thanks

FYI. T-Mobile still has the 5.99 plan as of 10/4/2009. I just did it in the morning. Chat did not work, but calling them on Sunday at 7:00 to the rentention department did.
Now just waiting to see if the service works on my 2g iphone.
Slower than 3g...but I"m okay with that!
