T-Mobile GPRS, MMS, SMS settings configurator

[redwildebeast]

If you have an unlocked phone and need the T-mobile settings sent to your phone this is the place to go. It will configure your device to use T-Mobile's networks to access internet, and send text/picture messages.

Does that thing really work??

Every time I have tried to use it in the past and more recently (yesterday), nothing was sent to the phone...

You can also do it manually. The manual settings are the same for every non smart/PDA cell phone.

Yeah the site is up and running perfectly fine. I just tried it. Make sure you put in the phone model and number right and it should work perfectly fine.
Just let me know and I will post the setting that you can put in manually for WAP or MMS

T-Mobile Total Internet APNs:

The rest of the settings are the same as above with T-Mobile Web settings

You can use wap.voicestream.com with Total Internet too, as well as on the BB Internet add-on.

Info from this has been moved to the wiki and it will be un-stickied but not deleted. Thanks for the post!

The Configurator is also useful if you flash an unbranding MP to your Motorola phone--even though that will not unlock your phone, it will remove all the T-Mobile-specific stuff ("Send to My Album," etc.) and will knock out the T-Mobile web/MMS settings.

Are these settings on any particular menu in the Nokia phones? every T-Mobile phone I've used since becoming a customer in 2004, has not had these on any accessible menu (from what I could see).

It turns out that one of my settings had a mistake.
after creating a new connection under GPRS:
Name: T-Mobile MMS
Connect to: Work Network
Access point name: wap.voicestream.com
Username: blank
Password: blank
Primary dns: blank
Secondary dns: blank
Ip address: blank

Then modify the Profile under MMS Options (New Multimedia Message, Options, Multimedia Msg. Options, Profile:
Server name: T-Mobile MMS
Connect via: Work Network
MMS URL: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Proxy IP: 216.155.165.50
