Well, usually, i use the command "ifconfig" to list out the ipaddress and ethernet settings.

However, when I turn off wifi, I can't seem to find the ipaddress in there for tmobile.
So, I don't know what I should use for the proxy setting.

I know that I'm somehow getting some network usage, because it shows some bits sent and received.

It'd be real nice to get it working!

Sort of off topic, but, has anyone noticed that mail won't use wifi to access pop? Has anyone found the settings for that so it will automatically swap if available?

By the way, I posted a complete, edited plist file on page 4 if you need it.

EE4life. Mine seems to work perfect. When my Wifi is near it grabs on and uses it, if not it uses the gprs, although my gprs does not allow anything besides port 8080 so my mail does not work.

To answer the questions about getting your IP address. Use the Field Test App

*3001#12345#* Call

Then click on pdp Information
Then pdp 0
It will give you your Type: IP, APN: whatever you have in APN, and Address.

Yes if you have the terminal app installed you can use ifconfig also, both will show you the IP. But then again "netstat -i" will also show you the IP

If you turn off wifi and there is no IP address in ifconfig then maybe you are not getting one in which case I would start with making sure my APN, USERNAME, and PASSWORD are correct.

Even without the proxy fix you should be able to grab an IP. However the only thing you will be able to do is ping the proxy nothing more.

If you are not sure what range of IP's your ISP/Provider is giving you just use the first octet and put in a entry of ie for me would be just like I use 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0

Chances are the first octet is not going to change no one needs that many addresses.

I hope you all get it working, it really does complete the phone when you can use the gprs/edge.

Exactly the same thing happens to me...

So i want to make me pac file look for that. The 255.0.0.0 is saying look at the first octet which is the 10. The 0.0.0 tells it to ignore the remaining octets. So if your ip is say 192.168.56.77 then the next time you connect its 192.168.75.34 the two octets that remained the same are 192.168 so you pac should be host 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 I hope this clear things up.

I check for 6 hours and found that (so far) the IP address set by TMobile on my phone changed 4 times. The changes are on the last 2 octets being the first 2 10.188.X.X. Is anybody on TMobile USA have the same first 2 octets?
If yes the proxy.pac file for TMobile USA should be:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
{
if (isInNet(myIpAddress(), "10.188.0.0", "255.255.0.0"))
return "PROXY 216.155.165.50:8080";
else
return "DIRECT";
}

I did it, this is freakin' sweet. Now this phone is complete.

Mine doesn't work after following the instruction in this thread. But as someone already mentioned, network usage show some bits sent and received (usually 1 - 10 kb increment). I noticed that at least mail works even though it is painfully slow. Safari doesn't work. Could it be my sim card? It is a year and a half old. Hope someone can help me. I am in Los Angeles, CA using T-Mobile and I just signed up for T-zone for 5.99.

So is mail just dog slow even over wifi then?

No both mail and safari are very fast over wifi. I only have this problem when connected to edge.

Yeah, I can get safari, and weather and stocks over wifi, but not email. WTF?

Our IT guy isn't here, so I can't go ask if it's port blocked. Maybe it is, though I didn't think so. Hrm.
