Verizon TP2 on AT&T - Data Configuration Help

[CyberVirus]

Help - I'm a newbie to this forum and just came back to WinMo after many years of BlackBerry. I just bought an HTC Touch Pro2 from Verizon and have already unlocked it for use on T-Mobile or AT&T. I'm trying to set up the data configuration so I can access stuff (I have an active data plan). I don't know what to do - can someone help??????? Thank you

**** Also TMobile Settings too - I am going to play with both at my house to see who I like more.

Verizon uses CDMA technology, as does Sprint. Even though Verizon & Sprint have a GSM SIM slot in them, as of yet the phone is still locked out on US towers. Until we can get a working Hard SPL, I doubt we will find any way to unlock it.

Sorry.

Funny man - just because I'm new to PPCGeeks doesn't mean I'm an idiot. Well, let's see. Phone arrived at 2:45pm Eastern via FedEx overnight from Verizon Wireless (I upgraded my business account but there's already a Tour on that line). SIM Unlocked by 3:00pm. Test call placed on AT&T at 3:15pm and on T-Mobile at 3:25pm. I managed to swing data configuration on T-Mobile and was surfing the web on EDGE data by 5:00pm and now am looking to configure AT&T Data for the phone. Did I miss something about this lock you and many others keep reporting? The phone works great - I should have email configured by this evening. If anyone can offer up some assistance as to AT&T Data Configuration that would be great.

I stand corrected - must have been doing something funky here at house - I'm still not configured properly via DATA settings. Help!!!! But phone and SMS works fine

Yea man. We've been able to use AT&T and T-mobile networks freely with the VZW TP2 once unlocked. I posted a video some time back.

Would you mind sharing those T-mobile data settings? I got my T-mobile prepaid yesterday. My texts work fine, but I can't get data up yet.

Cool,so a domestic T-Mobile/ATT SIM will work in this phone in the US? That's neat. I've only tried my Orange/UK SIM in it.

Now to try to get this thing to roam on Sprint's network with my regular verizon phone #... half the time where i'm at my VZ service sucks but Sprint is good (ATT is good also).

Mind sharing those T-mobile settings?

Great, so now Sprint is the ONLY one that locks you out of the US-based GSM towers.

Try this, then soft reset. Edge is slow.

Granted, I only have a Sprint TP2, but I could have sworn that I read that the necessary support for US GSM 3G had been left out, and that only overseas GSM 3G would work.
