If you didn't know, t-mobile doesnt deduct minutes from your plan when using the stock wifi calling app.....even though it says it does in the notification bar....so thanks but ill stock with the free version.

But u still have to pay a monthly service fee. This is an alternative used to come up on the man. Stick with the free app. (I wont lose any sleep.) It just doesn't do the same thing. Werd.

I dont pay any monthly service fee, I pay for my plan which is 79.99+ tax. I get no service at my house so I'm always connected to wifi. Doesn't cost anything extra, doesn't use my monthly plan minutes. So what does this app do that is so special/different than the stock app. I wont be losing any sleep either. WORD.

Yes I get 3g, hspa+ speeds with no issues. In Seattle I get average download speeds arnd 2MBps since att network is not great where I stay. But I have hit around 5Mbps in Chicago airport while traveling.
If you want there is a thread in sgs2 forums about people's experience on media net plans and their speeds. For me I didn't see any speed difference between the media net plan and the att 4g plan speeds. So i'm happily using the one which costs less and get unlimited data in the process

Just found this thread. It's helpful in my search.
FWIW, I USB tethered my Nokia 6700 Classic (which I didn't even know was capable of HSDPA until it launched). Signal used to be really good for it, but it started dropping like crazy. Thought it was the device, so I replaced it with another... same signal issues.
Anyway, I think I'm the reason why the signal is all crappy. In April, 2011, I did 800GB of data on my $20 Media Max unlimited data plan. AT&T never caught me. Until that month, I was doing between 10GB and 30GB each month.
Now, I'm looking for an affordable smartphone that is very much NON-AT&T so that I can continue to bend the rules and keep getting high speed internet.

Nope...once you go to SM you are free of T-Mo. However, if you use Wifi calling or other T-Mo branded items you will not be able to use them on SM.
I did have a data loss last week with Simple here in Sacramento. They had tower issues. But nothing else of consequence.
One issue that I have had. On virtually every ROM is editing the APN. YOu can usually edit it once, but when you go back in often the APN's do not show up. Food for thought.

Lol. Hmm thank God. I'm going to get sm tomorrow. Thank you very much.

Actually you can and do get 4g depending on where you are located. I am in Sacramento and get 4g speeds on SM.
Your plan also has to do with speeds. If yo are on the $40.00 plan yes, you are restricted to 3g. If you pay $60.00 then you get 4G.
And no you do not have to unlock for SM.

They do offer a $60/month plan that has 4G. As usual the giant word plastered all over their website and retailers is "unlimited" - which, as we all know, is a load of crap. Yes it's "unlimited internet" - however you get 1gig at 4G - then the rest of the month you're throttled to a whopping 56k (so useless you can't even stream a song with it).
As for the disappearing APN problem - if you run the CM7 ROM, and you're APN's are not in there - all you have to do is pull the battery out, restart the phone, and the APN's are back in. Also as pointed out the specialized apps for t-mobile like the wifi calling app won't work.
Anyway - all that being said - I've been on Simple with my G2X for 3 months and it works quite well for me. Only wish they offered more data in the plans - so I try to stay connected to a wifi hotspot as much as possible.

I thought there flyer says 2gigs of data hahaha on the 60 dollar
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Yes you do have to be unlocked on simple mobile. You cannot use a simple mobile sim in a locked phone. You also get 2gigs of data on the $60 plan and 4g if available in your area.

Can you use android phone without data plan?

Is it possible to use an android phone without a data plan and just text and call from it. Then connect to wifi for internet use?

Well not exactly. If you buy the phone out of contract then you can use the phone without a data plan. That's exactly what I did with my G2X and I don't have any data plan on it. They also aren't bugging me to get one either.

haha i didnt tell them im using a g2x

Like another poster stated, they only force you in to a plan w/data if you pick up a new phone through contract. Out of contract deals are totally safe and you can use wifi for Internet all you want

My mom apparently asked a person at the tmobile store if this was possible and he said no because the phone will search for internet and update itself and then you will get charged for data usage. Do you have to turn the data off on the phone?

To get the unlimited data you have to pay I think an extra $10 or some sort of extra fee but the unlimited data doesn't include hotspot, for hotspot you have to pay for it seperately.

Actually, i'm not rooted (became unrooted with the last update and just haven't gotten around to rooting it agina yet, lol) and neither is a cousin of mine. We both stayed with my grandpa for a week (our grandmother passed away) and we were able to use tether. He used it for his wifi only iPad and I used it for my Nexus 7. Neither of us rooted, and neither of us got charged for using it. Both of us on T-Mobile.

I just upgraded to unlimited w/out hotspot. Only $10 more then my previous 2GB plan. I seem to remember some rooted ROMs getting around it awhile back though. Haven't tried, but hoping I can get around it still.
