No ****s, same here.
Why the hell would they start doing this now?

Doesn't connect to Google server

I had this problem a while back. I just called up the retention department and had them switch me to the official "android" data plan but requested they keep my same price. Been with Tmo for close to 12 years so I guess they just decided to eat the cost.

Good thing is, that "official" data plan is now part of my profile and as long as I buy my phones off contract I should be okay unless they try more shenanigans in the future.

my 5.99 tzone is still working with APN wap.voicestream.com however my brother $10 web2go get blocked since today. It happened to him before, but it got connection back after a day or two. So guys just be patience!

 

[baseballfanz]

Yeah it happened before here and there but it's too wide spread now to think it's just a fluke. It doesn't hurt however to give it a day or two and go from there.

Thanks for the info, Ill wait it out otherwise ill call the retention department and see what they will do. that is stupid. took them 3 years for them to begin blocking the nexus, while it took them 2 days to block the nexus s

Well the market for used N1 just took a hit if it's permanent.;D

It still doesn't work on my daughter's Nexus One... I've switched my Sensation over to Android Preferred for $20-$10 off but I'm not sure how they would take two more phones

wap.voicestream.com APN still working fine for me. I'm on $5.99 T-Zones plan.

Had been using the default epc.tmobile.com since I got my N1 in Jan 2010. Started getting upgrade message consistently a few months ago. There had been brief episodes of a day or two before, but it always opened up again. Not so that time. Switched to wap.voicestream.com and all has been well since.

Are you getting access to all sites? Can you connect to Google server?
I'm using wap.voicestream.com but it's limited to what I can access.

Did you call 611 from your phone? I call but I guess it's not "retention" cause they told me there's no such thing as "android" plan. Want me to pay $25/mo.

Ask for the 200MB data plan for $10, verify that there will be no overage charges, Just edge speed after 200MB.
I switched 3 phones to the $10 plan with no problems. T-Mo customer service is excellent.

Make sure you configure market/google plus, google photos, amazon market, etc to only sync large volumes of data over wifi.

Yup, all sites and Google servers working fine. My SIM is about 10 years old, and I've been with Tmo as long. Maybe the T-Zones plan is treated differently from Web2Go?

I called 877-524-9422. This is their retention / loyalty department. They have more leeway and can give pricing for plans not offered anymore.

So you're basically getting the 5GB android plan for $10/month? Did you have to upgrade your contract?

Good thing is, that "official" data plan is now part of my profile and as long as I buy my phones off contract I should be okay unless they try more shenanigans in the future.

How would buying phones on contract affect the data plan being on your account? Or do grandfathered plans usually not carry over when you get new subsidized phones?

My Web2go plan that i have been using for almost 2 years have just stopped working . I switch the the wap.voicestream.com and i can only get into few website as someone noted above. Tried calling them and they wanted me to get one them new plans the 200mb and the unlimited 5gb cap. Idk maybe ill stick to this and wait if there is a way out. I guess days of unlimited usage of data for 10$ is gone. Btw people are calling tmobile and they say that its an easy fix and their fixes are the upsell to another plan which means you will lose your grandfathered plan just a heads up. Can anyone confirm if web2go still works with galaxy nexus uk version?

 

[robeest]

I thought it was just me. I decided to unsubscribe to the tzones and see if I put the sim back on my old phone and re-enable it that way.

My internet2.voicestream.com stopped working last week. I experience the same thing as others with wap working some of the time. I called T-mobile customer support to change to the normal data plan for $10. But the online account says the service is 200MB 4G but the data usage says 5GB Unlimited.

I think it will take them a few days to change what is shown on your account.
