What internet plan are you using for your Wing?

[ryansofresh]

I have a T-Mobile Wing running Open Touch.

Everything on my phone is set... except for internet.

What are my available options for internet plans for my wing?

I want unlimited internet usage and unlimited text.

What is available and what is the best/cheapest plan to get so I can use it for Internet Explorer, Opera, Google Maps, Weather, etc.??

I just have unlimited text and unlimited data. I figured that's what every wing user had.

[ryansofresh]

So, that's $14.99 for Unlimited text and $19.99 for Unlimited data..

Is there any other option? Or is this the only way to go..

Can I use the $5.99 T-Zones plan for internet?

You can but don't expect it to be there when you need it. My daughter does the 5.99 and I on average 2 times a month I get asked to see if I can figure out why she can't go to Myspace in Opera Mini. It is usually her fault changing a setting but still I do expect the day that the loophole will be closed. As for myself I have unlimited text and data. I just like to use my phone as I want when I want. As a matter of fact today my ISP (Comcast) was having difficulties with the ambient temps around here so web was slow or not loading. So I used my phone's ICS to browse the forum.

it's in my signature :)

Thanks for the input..

So the Unlimited data is the best thing to do, but the $19.99 hurts, haha.

Say I get the T-Zones $5.99, once I get that activated, will my internet explorer, weather, google maps, etc work automatically?

Or do I have to change some settings and download some cabs before they work?

Can someone shed some light on what steps I have to take to get T-Zones internet to work my internet explorer, google maps, etc. after I activate it?

Unlimited will require no configuration changes. "If" you already have T-Mobile configurations present.

T-Zones will not work right away the proxy configurations are listed all over the forum and can be found via google. There is a decent amount of configuration edits. It can be tedious or work right the first try all a matter of how well you follow the directions and if the directions you find do indeed work.

Good Luck!

p.s. If you plan on using palringo (all in 1 IM) ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) the proxy did not work for me. Can't say that is true with everyone.

I just tried the proxy settings 2 nights ago with a friends sim card on my Wing just to show him what the benefits are of paying for proper service and not.

My opinion is get the Full Service it just works.

[ryansofresh]

Thanks for your response.. really helpful.

I'm going to try the T-Zones for a while, if I hate it, then I'm going with the Unlimited Data Plan...

[D3TH METAL]

I have 1,000 texts for 8.99? and unlimited internet for 19.99. Get the internet, it's connected 24/7, I get all my emails,weather, browsing the web, downloads, :)

unlimited internet

[fzzyrn]

i use no plan. I'm cheap.

wifi is fine for me.

[duprade]

I have to have it for my job... not to mention its convinient to have regardless.

[dougstoner]

Yeah, I'm too cheap for that too, but now I'm starting to rethink the 5.99 tzones though. Although, wi/fi works fine and anytime I need it, I can usually find a hotspot.

[duprade]

Because of work, I HAVE to have unlimited internet and the worldclass service, so that I can use my phone and internet from any country... If I wasn't always traveling on a monthly basis. :mad:

[xmsleepR]

I got the Tzones set up the proxy like in the tutorial loaded up a few pages fine then i had to go to work...a couple hours later tried it again and this is the message that I get on internet explorer now...
"Error:request content '(website here)' cannot be accessed. You do not have access to the site."

[POOPIE4279]

wifi is fine for me it saves me 20 dollars a month...lol

I had t-zones for a while on my wing,one day it stopped working and couldn't get it to work for after a few days, I had to call t-mobile and asked what happened.They told me t-zones is for regular cells, not smartphones. I had to go with unlimited data.

you goofed by not just telling them that you swap your sim out with another smaller phone once in a while that you DO use t-zones with. If they ask you why, just tell them it's none of their business Or if you are feeling nice then say that you're 2nd phone is for times when you want to use your smaller Samsung T-809 or whatever to keep in your pocket when you're out... like clubs, ect. The wing is not pocket friendly so that's what I actually do sometimes.

Bottom line is, they have no business canceling your t-zones without your permission.

Im on a $2.99 offer for Unlimited T-Zones and Unlimited Picture Messages
I use the T-Mo Proxy =]
