I am planning on getting a Motorola Atrix as a secondary phone. I have set up a family plan for my daughter and I plan on putting the Atrix in there.
She uses a flip phone so I didn't put a data plan. If I put the atrix on that plan will rogers automatically give me a data plan?
I have three numbers in my familly plan; one iPhone, one Nokia N97, and an Atrix. All work fine with the familly data plan. For your info, the numbers are getting the data, not the phone. Last year I had a Desire, a Desire Z, an iphone4, a Vibrant, a Captivate, and now the Atrix. All have been in the data plan and Rovers never new what phone I had, but for the iPhone4 because it uses a micro sim.
yes but I heard that if you have a smartphone you need a data plan. I don't want a data plan on the family account. Will rogers force a data plan on it?
rogers requires you to have a data plan only if you are buying a smartphone from them at a subsidized price. if you get an atrix and unlock it you can use any plan you want.
Just don't use any data on it as they will charge you for it and it won't be pretty. Use wifi only and you will be fine on that front
Is there any reason why Rogers Data service wouldn't work on freshly unlocked Atrix?
I have data enabled and all! (as far as I know I went through every data setting and tried multiple permutations, but it always says something "no network access").
The phone works fine for calls though!
Ideas?

I was just going to say... you need the proper APN but it seems you've found it.
Did you get a data plan after all? If not, I'd get rid of that APN ASAP. Their standalone data rates are outrageous.

my Dell Streak will not connect to any networks, and it is unlocked. What do I do?
I apologize. I did research on this before posting, but apparently didn't do enough. My original message said that the Streak wouldn't work on Bell, but I didn't dig deep enough to realize Bell utilizes a hybrid network, with the HSPA+ GSM component activated in 2009.
Am not on Bell but on Telus.
My suggestion is to go on Bellmobility websitd and check ? Telus does post its APN setting on its site. Perhaps Bell does the same ?

The best you can find from Bell is in my post above from the Bell website. They would not give me the APN over the phone.
(Currently not with Bell while living in Germany).
I've really been considering a T-Mobile Springboard lately, but getting it banks on the assumption that flashing ICS on it would unlock GSM voice/text, and let me use the Springboard as a phone by putting my T-Mobile USA SIM in it.
One person in the general discussion topic basically said that it would work, but I just want to make sure before I plop $300 on a device when I could have gotten a different tablet instead (likely the HTC Flyer 3G at ~$450). I'm assuming I'd have to delete the /efs folder to keep T-Mobile from picking up the IMEI and blocking the SIM with the voice plan on it, correct? And would I be expecting slower data speeds after flashing? I'm not concerned about that part, just wondering.
EDIT: And as the title suggests, I'm talking about the T-Mobile Springboard, not the international Huawei Mediapad.
ICS and Phone work for my Springboard
I have a T-Mobile Springboard that I purchased on ebay. I just flashed the ICS in place of stock T-Mobile a couple of days ago. I had a T-mobile SIM for prepaid Mobile broadband, and got an error announcement when trying to use the new phone feature.
I called T-mobile and had my plan changed to a pay by the day plan just to check the phone functionality. It works great! I have only used it as speakerphone, but assume you could pair it with a Bluetooth headset.
Note - the IMEI from the Springboard will not work to set up a voice and data plan. T-Mobile rep said it was invalid for a voice plan and asked for another IMEI off another GSM phone. If you already have a SIM and plan for a smartphone you should be able to plug it in and go I expect.
Sweet, good to know, think I may have just decided on a tablet. And yeah, I'd be swapping the SIM in my current T-Mobile phone in and out for phone/data capability, not a separate plan for it.
Yes it works great. Well worth it wont find a better deal
I have a SIM card on T-Mobile for the Value Talk+Text+2GB. From what I read here, this will this work fine for the tablet with gsm voice?
I have the same plan, and the voice does work. However, I am so far not able to get both voice and data to work on the plan. I really bought the thing to use over wifi but registered a T-mobile account to try out the phone feature and to allow me the ability to request a SIM unlock.
Just realized I had turned network data off and hadn't verified all three services worked together - so far the answer for me is no. I turned wifi off and network data on, and now I currently can get voice and text working but not internet over T-mobile network. Trying to open a webpage currently just sends me to the my.t-mobile login page.
I called T-mobile support and was told that since it is a tablet, they would not support both voice and data for it.
Is anyone else having luck with getting both voice and data over t-mobile network?

I wish we could get a conclusive yes or no to whether or not this damn tablet works just like a smart phone (just like HTC Flyer 3G) so I can decide which stinking one to get.

Is there no ramification (on the phones software) for deleting that folder? Will the carrier just see it as a generic device?

I don't believe so, but you obviously want to back it up elsewhere anyway just in case, and I believe that's the idea of it (carrier unable to detect IMEI and therefore unable to restrict you in some way based off of it).
I don't have any good news on this. I took another run at T-mobile customer service today and was again told that this device was not permitted to have both voice/text plus internet. I can have voice and text on the 2$/day plan or I can have data and no voice on a tablet mobile broadband plan.
T-mobile said "Tablets are not phones!" I demonstrated while on the phone with the rep my ability to make calls and text with the Mediapad.
I argued every logical angle I could conceive, and the rep agreed with any logic I presented for having the 3 services available all at once for tablets. While we were in complete agreement that it would be 'nice' if it would work, he could not suggest a plan that would allow for 'talk text web' on this device.
The rep did say that T-mobile was 'working on' a new plan to allow for these tablets with phone capabilities.

What you should do is just ask for the smartphone value 500 plan.
500 mins, unlimited text, 2GB of data for $49/month
Once that's on your sim or whatever, try to access everything. Don't ask for a plan that doesn't exist.

Could try, but I expect then I would just be out $50 and still only get phone and text. Two different T-mobile reps have said they have no plan that will allow for talk, text, and web for this device.
My experience is as a new customer as my current phone is on AT&T. Possible someone who is already on a T-mobile smartphone plan can get it to work with their existing SIM.
I am quite happy with this device as wifi only for now. Was mostly just curious if I could get the phone function to work. Working now to get a SIM unlock so I can try the thing with AT&T.
Just got my springboard tonight. First thing I installed the rooted ICS leak. Popped in my TMobile Monthly4g Sim (on $30 5gb Walmart plan) and I have phone and SMS but no data. Apps time out and browser redirect to my.TMobile.com... Really want to get this working... Any ideas guys? I'm willing to test. my next step may be a straighttalk byod Sim... If that doesn't work I'll have to move to AT&T and the galaxy tab plus

Who's rom are you using
To be clear. What types of networks are our rezounds capable of running on in North America.
Do we get full HSDPA+ on ATT or just Edge here.
Also, What about UTMS networks like TMobile. Can we have a guru chime in here?
there capable with frequency that have 1900/2100 since most gsm company in the u.s has 1900 frequency you can only get edge with it, but some people were able to get 3g like t-mobile and Att because of there 1900/2100 frequency they have.
please explain what is or are guru chime

I am rather intrigued by this subject, because I do sometimes travel to other countries. Not very often, less than once per year.
My wife has an iPhone 4s which is an official Verizon global phone. From the latest ruu leak, the rezound will soon be joining the list.
With a Verizon global phone, one can automatically roam on CDMA and GSM networks at a cost of $2 per minute or more depending on the country. This seems like a lot but I think one can call the USA without any long distance charges.
An alternative is to use a GSM ROM along with a SIMM from a cell company in that country. But, what will it cost to call the USA?
Another variable us the length of travel. My last trip abroad was just for a weekend. Arrived on Friday afternoon and flew home on Monday morning.
Perhaps a GSM ROM SIMM coupled with Skype or Google Voice is more economical?
Anyways, I probably think about this more than it is worth.
On the subject of APNs, I ran across a free app which can load any of 1100 APNs depending on ones location.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tweakkericsbeta
It does not seem to live up to its claims, because when I run it the only choice seems to be Verizon apn.
But it already has globe have you updated with the new ruu

The proxy setting only helps the MVNO, in this case NET10. They can and do use it to throttle certain types of data transfer. One specific type that I've experienced is that the android speedtest.net app will not function with this proxy setting in place. You can delete the proxy setting without ill effects on your cellular signal and, among other benefits, the speedtest.net app will once again work. YMMV.
I am a GoPhone user. I just received my LG Optimus G in the mail today. I'm coming from a Galaxy SII Skyrocket (rooted). With the Skyrocket I was getting 10Mbps data. I had to go to AT&T and get a MicroSIM because the Skyrocket had a standard SIM. On the LG, I cannot get any kind of data signal. the LG is stock. Am I missing something?

With the sim in the work phone, im currently in Melbourne, Australia and picking up Vodafone. Texts and calls work fine. When i put the sim in my S4, the furthest i can get is to the Available Networks screen and it shows vodafone AU and Telstra Mobile.
Tapping either will either keep searching until it times out, or say that it is not registered and to try again later.
the APN settings im currently using are....

Contact whomever sold you the SIM and ask them for the APN. Many carriers use the AT&T network and affiliates but don't use AT&T APNs.
When I bought a global SIM, the carrier provided me their APN details. Even though it uses the AT&T network, it's not an AT&T APN.
Ya I tried all their settings to no avail. I ended up just breaking down and buying a local sim. Bummer not having a US number but using whatsapp for texting and it works out.
