Treo 750 and Tmobile usa, NO Edge connection??

[jxs714]

Hey everyone.. as usual im having a problem. I have tmobile in the usa and my internet is ALWAYS horribly slow. Its only on GPRS and its just horrible slow. I never got and never do get an Edge connection. Im using the first windows mobile 6.1 that came out. Does the problem have anything to do with the windows os or the band selection? I tried changing the band but its a no go from what i see. How can i get this to work correctly and connected on edge?.. Also does tmobile usa 3g work on this phone? I always appreciate everyones answers! thank you so much for the help!

I fixed the problem:: I downgraded to the Row 2.27 unbranded rom and the rom had Edge. Now my phone is running much faster online the way it should =-)

I'm planning on upgrading to 6.1 on T-Mobile as well, could you point out where you got ROW 2.27 from.
EDIT: Nevermind, 2.27 is 6.0 but I want 6.1. So you say 6.1 is worse than 6.0 for EDGE?

The 6.1 that was on my treo never connected to edge, i could tell because the Speed was extremely slow and the connection never showed a E icon. For some reason it looks like Edge was missing on the rom, i dont know why. 6.1 is really no different at all from 6.0. The only difference i know is that 6.1 has the updated internet explorer built in which involves the ability to zoom, thats all lolz. That can easily be modified on 6.0 if you google well. im pretty of it. I am definitely happy with 6.0 and you will be too especially when you get to use edge.

Don't you miss the reported snappier function of 6.1 and the threaded text msgs, automatic email fetch for pop/imap, and few other convenient features.

Sounds too good to pass up, but like you said EDGE is important.

Hi Guys:

I've just picked up a Treo 750, having used my 600 on Tmobile for years. I've been struggling for a week to try and get it unlocked. And I've been concerned about upgrading to Win 6.0 or 6.1

My Treo 750 is Cingular branded. ATT does not want to cooperate in giving me the subsidy unlock code. I used to be a Cingular customer, but they say I have to be a current customer in order to get the code from them.

Would you please tell me how you got yours unlocked?

Which firmware and/or radio versions are working for you?

Do I use the "unbranded" files? Or Cingular?

I need some help in figuring out where to download the proper files to get mine unlocked and onto Win 6.0 or 6.1. I would prefer that it work on Edge.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I have T-Mobile and had my 750 unlocked and on the internet. However, a couple of days ago, it quit connecting to the internet. It will download email with no problem but will not connect to a URL in Internet Explorer, Y!Go but will connect to messenger on Palringo. Any ideas? I have checked the connection settings and changed those around but nothing seems to work. It does not seem to connect to Edge either. Is there an update that helps or some settings that I am missing?
