Internet Trouble with New Unlocked Iphone

[Llako202]

I just had my friend unlock and jailbreak my iphone last nite for my tmobile service. everything is working but my internet....when i go to safari it tells me that i need a data plan to continue to use the internet...now for my tmobile account i already have unlimited internet usage for my regular TAP phone so would i need to get a data plan for this? When i called tmobile they were asking me what kind of phone i had so they could put me under the right data plan...obviously im not going to tell them the iphone...can someone please give me some insight to this????

Off the top of my head the problem is it's still looking for a network using AT&T data settings. you have to modify the phone to tell it how to connect to tmobile's data network

Of course you can tell T-Mobile that you're using an iPhone! They actually have an iPhone tech support division at T-Mobile.

You're not doing anything wrong, man. You don't need to be paranoid about using your iPhone on other carriers. Millions of people do it.
