[Q] How do I use my Vibrant for gps and wifi while avoiding roaming related charges when in Canada or another country?
[A] this is the question I asked support at t-mobile. I got 2 answers, neither were completely correct. The problem is that you cannot block IMs and phone calls from reaching your mobile unless you go into airplane mode. (Note that you will receive charges for IMs and for calls you do not pick up as long as they register on your phone. This is what I was told by one rep. Other reo said that I should not be able to receive these since my account was not set up for international services, but as msgs and calls came in, I got worried.)
The short of it is this: for $20, I bought CoPilot off the android market and downloaded the North America maps. This app does not require data connection, and it works remarkably well. I then put the phone into air plane mode. After doing this, I enabled gps and wifi. This allowed me block all direct calls and IMs while retaining the ability the ability to use the phone for gps and for browsing when there was an available wifi network. (having a google voice account actual enabled me to send IMs when connected to a wifi network.)
It all worked so well, I am further considering dropping my data plan altogether since the places I typically use the internet are places with wifi (though perhaps I will wait until the 2.2 update is pushed.)

In terms of GPS, you are correct, you would have to purchase a third party GPS app for that (since google maps doesn't cache. Well it does, but if you find yourself lost after choosing a route and don't have wifi available then you are forced to turn on data so it can redownload your route, since it only caches your route and nearby streets.) To block incoming phone calls you just set up unconditional call forwarding (**21*18056377243# send) which will forward all of your calls to VoiceMail. The 1805 number can be replaced with your VM provider of choice (ie Google voice.) To undo, just dial ##21# and send. After that just disable data roaming and you are good.
In terms of stopping IM/SMS/MMS, just have care add message blocking (or better yet, go to your tmobile account and add it from there) its a free service that blocks all incoming or outgoing sms/mms/email as sms/IM. Sometimes the reps will just add the sms/mms block so you might want to add it yourself from the site.
Also if you purchased the vibrant on a contract then you can't remove your data.

Or if you want to keep the FULL functionality of your phone while traveling internationally you could buy a prepaid SIM for a carrier in the country you're visiting.

this ^^
If you did not want to get a SIM, you could just take your t-mo sim out. This way you could still use wifi, then use Google voice for texts and VM.
I don't know whether I should ask it here or shouldn't.....i was very happy doing VOIP on my Vibrant.....now suddenly my company has blocked VOIP also none of the messenger's are getting log in...
Only my phone's Gtalk is working...but no VOIp. is there a VOIP application which can bypass this blocking. I tried several application from Market...but none seems working.
My sip provider is NYMGO (www.nymgo.com)
Please if any one can help??
Bump.....85 views no reply...come on guys....help me out...
I don't understand the problem.
Are you saying T-Mobile is blocking VoIP over data?
Are you saying your employer is blocking VoIP on their WiFi network?
My employer is blocking VoIP on their WiFi network.
Make friends with one of the network admins and ask them to unblock the ports NYMGO uses. Seriously, they obviously don't want you using unauthorized apps or services on their network. Many companies, including mine, have strict policies in that lead to disciplinary action, up to and including termination for any unauthorized use of the company's network or the circumvention of any security policies in place.
First step would be to talk to the network admin and find out what changed on the network and if they could re-open those ports used by your voip. If they tell you they can't, you're SOL. It's the company's network, not yours, they pay for it and therefore they decide how it's used, not you. If you had to manage a large corporate network you would understand.
Hello.
I have a 4G/LTE Nexus 9 Tablet . In my Country in order to use internet through data services like 3G & 4G on Telecom Carriers (service provider) , I have to "DIAL" a code (or a Number) like:
*141* pin number # (to charge my account / pin number is bought from Service Provide website)
*141*1# (to know about reminder of my credit and in response the service provider should inform me by a text message in default cell phones)
As I know , the nexus 9 doesn't support "DIALING Numbers" in GSM band.(It only Support SMS) ,So It's not possible to CALL (DIAL) the mentioned formatted numbers and it seems I can not buy charge,check my account info and use 3G & 4G Services.
Would you please help me with this problem and give me advices about solutions that help me to use 3G & 4G data services .(Maybe I 'm wrong and the tablet has capabilities to address this problem.)
I hope to receive a reply.
Thank You.
I understand your frustration about this issue.
Are you using a Prepaid package from your service provider? This is kind a tricky when subscribing an internet plan in Nexus 9.
I got some ideas about solving the problem.
First, I'm not sure but try go to Setting, More network, select mobile plan and see if you can select from there.
Second, eject the sim card and insert into a Smartphone (that has a dial app) and subscribe the plan you wanted and put back into Nexus 9 after response or replied from service provider.
Third, find out whether your service provider provides any online service that can subscribe a Prepaid plan for your current number either from their website or a downloaded app.
Hope it helps.
I'm newbie anyway.
can't we just dload a dial app from the playstore like truecaller app , truedialer app ?
No you can't, caller dialler app you mentioned are not working in Nexus 9 as it has no call facility, only smartphone or tablet with a built in dialler can install that. You cannot make any service call (phone call using sim) but you can make internet call like hangout, Skype, FB messenger.
Hello folks. I am searching for an application that switches off my internet connection from countries that my roaming is not free (meaning non EU countries).
Well the technical challenge would be to keep track and recognise that it is entering in an foreign provider non approved.
Thanks for the help in advance.
Hi everybody,
I have a google voice number that I use for my business.
I have it on my business card and on my website too.
I'm currently using a cellular provider Im not satisfied with and want to switch.
Before I do that I wanted to know if switching cellular providers effect the google voice number or is it linked the my Goggle account only?
I'm currently using Cricket and want to switch to T Mobile.
Thanks in advance!
