I'm going to give my 8525 as a Christmas gift to someone who is going to use it on Tmobile, so I need to set it up for it.
I haven't been using it, and just updgraded it to the official ATT WM6 Rom, so I will upgrade it again to something on here.
It doesn't matter the ROM, I will figure that out later.
What I need to know is how to set it up to work on TMobile, sms, mms, internet, etc.
I tried searching, but the answer is probably stuck somewhere in 100's of pages of threads.
A quick answer would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

If you upgrade towards one of the latest Schaps roms there will be no problem with those settings.
Autoconfig will configure the phone according to the network of the simcard in use. I use it everytime when I'm in England, I've got myself a T-Mobile NL simcard and a T-Mobile UK simcard, no problems with connecting to the net or mms :)

Depending on which tmobile plan u have, these cabs will do all the set up...

Im currently using a 8525 on t-mobile. The only problem I had was when I called t-mobile they the broad gave me the wrong IP address for my MMS soo that was a headache. If you search you will always find what you need.

I use Schap's 3.20 on an 8525 with T-Mobile US. It was very easy to set up, as long as you follow the instructions listed in the forums and Wiki. I was able to use a settings CAB to get everything working properly right off the bat.
Only two things I haven't been able to fix- The TAB key no longer has any function, and I cannot send an SMS directly to an e-mail address. I found a rough work around for the e-mail, but not the TAB key.
EDIT: Was just kindly directed to a fix for the TAB key: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1764376&postcount=2
Good luck!
