Is this with the sim card that came with your tab? I'm really curious. Try calling tmobile and see if they give you another apn setting. Many people are facing the same problem.

Having trouble getting an answer? | What is XDA about? | How to ask for help?

if [ $PM.incoming.type = $type.question.ROM.how_to_use ] || [ $PM.incoming.type = $type.question.ROM.silly_question ]; then mv $PM.incoming /.trash; PM.response($responsetype.ignore); $PM.sender.ignore_in_future=true; init.sequence($boy_who_cried_wolf); fi;


If you wish to apply for one of the Recognized Themer/Contributor titles, or have a question, please DO NOT send me a PM about it. Instead please contact your device's forum moderator, or a senior moderator, who will deal with your application. Thanks

Same results here
I have the even more plus plan on tmobile. Asked the sales rep if I could just keep my plan and usw my current sim, she said I could. Purchased it full price with the intention of using it as a phone (ty everyone here), but after inserting my sim, it showing 3g, all it will go to is thw tmobile site. Wifi works fine for everything after a google signin, just not 2g/3g. Guess I'm taking a drive back there today.

I had the same thing happen. I bought it, walked out of the store with it working, but 2 hours later, it just redirects everything (but google) to my.tmobile.com.

I spent hours on the phone, took it back to the store the following day and let then work on it. They eventually opened a ticket with the PDA group. I let that stay open for 24 more hours, then I just returned it. It never did work.

I bought a verizon tab and it's working great.

Incidentally, my buddy bought a tmo tab the day after me, and is experiencing the same issue... he is more patient than me, though, and is just hoping they fix it soon.

We both paid full retail and are/were on the $39 no contract plan.

From what I understand tmobile wont allow you to do a non contract line without you credit being ran in the process. They consider it a web connect line and you have to get that data plan. The reps for tmobile aren't explaining it to people which is why I will be returning mine and probably get the Sprint or Verizon tab. I don't understand why a android data wont work but they have found out how to get voice to work with the tab. Its very unfortunate

So you're saying that there's no hope then. Later today I'm going to find out if it can work with the no-contract plus unlimited plan that I've been on with my g1 for 2 years. Again, I was told that it would work. If not, back it goes. That would really be a shame, but not the first time I've been lied to by t-mobile service reps.
