thanks for your speedy response. It now works.

I see your comments about bluetooth. I just can’t send pictures/ ring tones over from old phone. Infact can’t even send anything from any paired bluetooth device.

Shame.

Really appreciate your help.

Kind Regards

Shelly

@Shell

As you see from previous comments, the T-Mobile GPRS service has been a bit erratic lately. I’ve been having problems myself, whereby a page in Safari appears to load but comes in completely blank. If I figure it out, I’ll be sure to post about it.

Sorry I can’t be of more help.

Hi
i am trying to get safari working. I am on t-mobile with same web and walk package. I have put in the APN settings but still can’t connect. The message l get is “Safari cant open the page becuase it is not connected to the internet”. Do you have any ideas what l am doing wrong?

Many Thanks

Hi
Same intermittent problems for me with T-Mobile data.
Seems a bit better today.
Glad it’s not just me

@Ian

I had problems with the T-Mobile data service yesterday as well. I guess it was a nationwide problem as I spent the day driving from Leeds-Bournemouth and it wouldn’t work anywhere. It’s not been great today either - still intermittent. How about for you?

Hi there.
I used your settings to set my iPhone up for data use on t-mobile, & so far it’s worked perfectly.
Today, it doesn’t want to work. Safari “can’t find the server”, & mail is saying “the connection to the server “mail.mac.com” failed”.
Is anybody else having problems? Or is anybody aware of T-Mobile outtages in the Nottingham area?
Cheers
IAN

The Installer app comes ready-loaded if you use Ziphone to unlock/jailbreak your iPhone. Since that’s what I’ve done most recently, that’s the best recommendation I can make.
