Ok, here's the situation i've run into w/ AT&T. I used to have the old data/message package media max unlimited i believe it was called, where it was unlimited data, plus unlimited messages for 39.99. I guess this only worked w/ the 8125 and possibly the 8525. Is there anyway to get this package to work w/ the 8925/Tilt, either the phone or the network recognizes the package, and AT&T it still showing i own an 8125 on their end. Any workarounds?

AT&T really has no idea whqat phone you are using. I own a blackjack and Tilt and go back and forth all the time, never causing any issue. I, too, have the media max unlimited package and never had any issues. Just throw your sim card into the Tilt and you should be fine.

well, i know they had no idea what phone i'm using, as i said, they thought/think i'm still using my 8125. but when i put my sim card into my tilt, no internet. take it right back out and throw it in my 8125, i have internet. unless they're something wrong w/ the internet settings which i highly doubt...the net settings weren't working when i originally got the phone under the AT&T rom...and its still not working under the q-mobile 1.2 - tilt rom...

Was the 8125 able to do 3G? What's the sim look like? Does it say 3g across the front?

The problem may be the sim. It works with older phones but won't work on new phones.

n/m i figured it out....it was def a 3G chip in my phone before, because i remember cingular sent me a new sim in the mail nearly a year ago. But here was the trick, in the tilt under the gprs authentication it was under CHAP, i switched it to PAP, which was what my 8125 was under, and the net works now. It was a lucky guess on my part, i just went to that immediately. Haha, thanks for the help though
