Spoke with the highest level tech support this morning about the issue and she said she has no mention of any outages in my area. The only thing she saw was the data plan I had was specifically for Win Mo devices. Once that was changed we did some testing but still no data.

We next went to the APN settings to check what info was in the "T-Mobile Data" APN. After confirming all was okay, I went to "Menu" "Save"....began getting notifications like crazy and could once again get online :)
[HTC Sensation] Pandemoniumone:
What timing! How much were you paying for the WM data plan? I was paying $25 a month, When they switched me to the universal plan it stayed the same price. Looking into the "Cap" right now...
[HTC Sensation] WarlockW:
Yea $25 - no cap

Now they want $30 cap a 2g

Freaking hell..
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
this is the part that's completely bull****. there's only 1 difference between these plans: price! data was cheaper back when some of us started using it & now they want us to pay more & be capped!

I'm currently rocking the original Total Internet plan for $20 (started at $30 with hotspots) & don't want to change from that!
[HTC Sensation] mike2518:
Same issue here, I'm in Houston, and data has been out since yesterday evening. I called t-mobile and their automated system said that there is an outage in the area. I hung up the phone at that time. I am running the sensation on the $30/month data plan, so I don't see any reason why data would be cut off. I mean, it is the the most expensive plan they offer!!!
[HTC Sensation] Pandemoniumone:
Just got off the phone again and confirmed what I was told in my last conversation with them. I'm now on a universal plan that works with everything but Blackberry devices and it is $25.00 a month with a 5 gig per month guarantee 4G speeds, I reach the 5 gig limit they flip a switch and it will become drastically slower. With my HD2 I barely reached 2 gigs a month so I'm thinking 5 is more than enough for me.

Not sure why your only being offered that plan but you may want to call ask about what I'm on.
[HTC Sensation] WarlockW:
Ask for a supervisor!

Yeap .. I just called .. and talked to a supervisor ..

I was told that my data plan will only work with WM Device ..

Blah Blah ..

I said I was going to quit after 9 years .. and guess what ?

They changed it to a universal plan LOL ( Shakes Head )

$25 a month 5g cap :)

Sooooo .. If you have this problem .. BE NICE .. Talk Like you know what your talking about ..

And ASK FOR A SUPERVISOR!

TRY it I did It Worked :)
[HTC Sensation] bcbbc2202:
No data on Sensation.

Tmo rep said my data plan in not for android. Don't tell me that data for android is any different from data for WM, or jailbroken iphone for that matter. So far I was really satisfied with Tmobile but this smells bad. I'm gonna stick with my HD2 until xda guys find a way to get rid of Sense. I'm pretty sure stock android won't have any issues with my data plan.
[HTC Sensation] mike2518:
It will, because tmobile goes by the eimi or whatever number its called. that number identifies the device, so they know. what options did he give you to get the data working again? I'm having the same issue, I curretnly have the $30/month plan on HD2 and data stopped working last evening. it sucks!!! i should be getting data no matter what considering what I'm paying. i'm gonna chat with a rep soon. people, please report your findings and/or conclusion to this stupid proble.
[HTC Sensation] bcbbc2202:
I tried my S4G with 2 different sims, aside from mines. Both have non-android data plans. They worked. I think that Tmobile realized that too many people are dragging their old and cheap data plans into new phones and didn't like it. Especially now that they need to doll themselves up for a potential buyer.

As to the data plan change, any change is not acceptable for me so I really tuned him out.
[HTC Sensation] oakland73rd:
ive had the phone since sunday 6/12/2011 and i have the 24.99 smart phone unlimited plan everything was working fine untill today when nothing worked internet,weather etc... went to tmobile they did a factory rest on it still didnt work so they said since i have the old plan i should change it i told them only if i still pay the same price after a few minutes they said ok and now my phone is working and on my accoutn it says android plan were before its said smart phone and still paying 24.99
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
did your old plan have a cap? cause you new one does.

I'm telling you, they probably did a system wide IMEI block yesterday for anyone not on their newer plans.
[HTC Sensation] oakland73rd:
yeah its 5GB OF HIGH SPEED BUT I STILL PAY THE 24.99 A MONTH I DONT MIND AS LONG AS MY PHONE KEEPS WORKING
[HTC Sensation] El Daddy:
I have the old $24.99 android unlimited plan and my data works fine.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
bolded the important part.

We're all running older internet plans from before Android
[HTC Sensation] unixman2000:
Ok, Here is my story about getting 4G Data to work...

I had an HTC HD2 with a Flexpay plan (500 talk, unlimited text, unlimited Internet for $63.19/month w/tax). Bought the HTC Sensation out right at a T-Mo kiosk at the mall. The rep was very helpful, she looked up my plan and stated she had to give me a new SIM and change my plan slightly so 4G would work. She said there was no extra cost and my plan would remain the same. So I walk out of the store happy as a clam..

I get home and while I have the 4G connection icon at the top of the phone screen. I can't surf anywhere on the Internet with any app I tried. Wifi connection works great, I can make/recieve phone calls no problem. :confused:

So the next day, I called T-Mo support and after 15 minutes of researching my account (and at first the rep said my account was provisioned properly for 4G). He found out my phone IEMI was not registered correctly in their system. The tech spent another 10 minutes of walking me thru menus and checking settings. I start getting T-Mo text messages and the tech sez I am all set. It may take up to two hours for the changes to take effect. I had to wait about 5 minutes and then I could surf the Internet from my cell using the 4G connection...Yea! :D

I guess the moral here is be persistent and call T-Mo support for help first. Their techs are not too bad and they helped me out.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
UPDATE: Problem Solved

And to update my issue regarding data connection; It turned out that the issue was indeedy my data plan. I had the old smartphone data plan with 400 texts for 24bux a month and speaking with the really really really understanding rep today, and because they have on record that I have been a tmo customer for at least 10 years (originally voicstream back in the days), the rep got her manager to update my data plan to the android data plan and keep my plan with no increase in price. I don't know about you but that is customer service.....

Because it takes time to cycle through data and connecting my phone with data again, the same rep said she would call tomorrow to see if everything is working and update me on my trouble ticket that I had submitted on Friday.

Bottom line, tmo does check it's data plan to ensure it's compatible with the IMEI they have on file. Methinks that updating the IMEI did me in regarding the data plan....*shrug*

And yes BE NICE and the reps will help you!
[HTC Sensation] schoei1:
Web is back baby with old rates and they even emailed me the unlock code!:D

After about 3hrs on the phone with T-Mobile, and being very nice, they switched me to technical support. I now have the Android Data with my old myFaves 300 with FlexPay Unlimited Web + 400 Messages.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
so did they or didn't they change your data package?
[HTC Sensation] macnotin:
Tried changing my sim to the one that came with the S4G. Still no luck. The rep that sold me the phone assured me my old $20 voicestream unlimited plan would work, and indeed it did for two days. Fingers crossed that the fix won't involve a pricey plan upgrade...
[HTC Sensation] jreed3786:
FIX for the problem, guys....

I too, was having the same problem, even after the 2 days of the outage being T-Mobile's towers...then my fiancee's Vibrant was on 4g...while mine wasn't. I went to Walmart, where I purchased it from on the 12th, and a T-Mo rep came TO THE STORE, and realized that the 4g was not working on my phone, even after a swap out in the store. New phone, same problem. So...I suggested that maybe the old plan was needed to be pulled off and then re-added to my account, or maybe my phone needed to be pulled off of the network...(which they did) and BAM...everything's been great ever since. The problem as stated before, is that you MUST have a rep RE-ADD your device to the network or remove and re-add the data service again. ENJOY! :) Oh...and MAKE SURE YOU USE THE NEW SIM CARD that comes with the phone. Have that provisioned for your account. The card is a 4g sim card.
[HTC Sensation] xnifex:
congrats, your IMEI was flagged just liked the rest of ours.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Yes you need the required steps to be on the 4g data on tmo.

1. IMEI to match what they have on file.

2. Use the SIM card that was included in your box....just do it anyway.

3. Make sure you are on an ANDROID plan. I can't stress it enough. Tmo will need to recode your data to be the correct corresponding plan.

I have mine now with a cap but I did NOT lose my 400/mo text package. So in essence they have given me the text package for free. 1

Even though there are many older plans out there like I had and even though my "smartphone" plan worked with my N1, they have since flagged almost all the IMEI's out there running these different data plans. If the plan doesn't match, they will disconnect you, period. No text, no email, no notification.
[HTC Sensation] Minnesotavikings15:
My phone works now just an android plan change. Some Tmo reps in Minnesota have no idea how to master reset a phone lol.
[HTC Sensation] schoei1:
Yes. My new Android data package at the old rate of $24.99 has 2GB at high-speed. I may change it to $30 with 5GB if needed.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
When I go into the my account app on the phone, it read the recent activity change on my account.

It was the contract change, now extended my contract to 6/9/2013. Then was the cancellation of my old data (Smartphone plan). And then the new info that I saw today was that I have unlimited data with 400 texts. So I am guessing this is the universal coding that I have seen a few others report on. I am not sure if there is a cap, but I do not think I would reach it in anycase.
[HTC Sensation] macnotin:
I can confirm that my issue was my old data plan was flagged and they disconnected me. You can try going through the loyalty department or update to the newer $30 data plan. I also switched to the sim card that came with the phone.
[HTC Sensation] backstep:
I had the T-Zones data plan for $5.99 and had to switch to a different data plan with the Sensation. I got the $20 Android preferred data plan.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Pretty much what I stated here in this thread on post 55, besides the phone info test. I wouldn't suggest that route only if you are comfortable with messing with those screen options.

[HTC Sensation] txdonahues:
Okay correct me if I'm wrong

I have same issue as everyone, been in the store and on the phone with CS several times, changed out sim cards etc...

The one underlying connection is the $30 Unlimited data - 5 GB of high-speed data included.

I am on the $24.99 Unlimited Android plan currently and was told it is exactly the same as the 4G plan by both in store and CS representatives. But like others I believe our IMEI numbers are being blocked from the "HIGH SPEED DATA". Sure with the Unlimited plan you are getting data, just at 3g or less speeds hence the words above off of Tmobile's own site Unlimited data. I fear that the only way to get the 4G speeds is adding the 5 GB of high speed data $30 plan.

In my opinion, the phone should not be allowed to be sold unless it came with the High Speed data, it is only making Tmobile and HTC look bad. New customers go ahead and charge the $30 but for those of us who have been loyal to TMobile, close to 10 years myself, we should get the upgraded plan at the same grandfathered rates.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
If you have read some of my earlier posts you can tell that me and some others here did get just that deal regarding grandfathered plans. My current plan is the android unlimited web + 400 texts package for 24.99/mo. This is my grandfathered plan with NO cost increase. The CS tech's manager just recoded my data to work with the phone.
[HTC Sensation] Mr3G:
Anybody else experiencing data shutting off after 10-15mins while the phone is in sleep mode?? I tether my phone to my lab top, after about 10-15mins, my internet connection goes out and I have to wake the phone for the data to resume?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
You running it via mobile or wifi? If wifi make sure your wifi connection is set to never off in the advance settings.
[HTC Sensation] Mr3G:
^^The stock wired tether does not work, so I use PDA net and wireless hotspot occassionally. It happens using both types of tethering, where is this advance settings for wifi? TIA
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
menu-settings-wireless&networks-wi-fi settings-hit menu again to choose advanced-wifi sleep policy.

Make sure the toggle is to never. This should ensure that wifi stay on here. GL

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScrumpyZebra:
How long has it been doing this?

And yeah, what he said ^
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zalatorisaurus:
Could be a Rom or you're using or could be your phone itself. I recall several people, including myself, that had problems with mms on CM6 Froyo on the Droid Eris. Some people could fix it using an apn manager, but I could not. I had to move back to the Stock Sense with android 2.1 or a variant like XTR. If mms worked on Stock 2.2 for you, you could try using Virtuous or Sky Raider.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rfarrah:
I agree with everybody's suggestions above. You might also make sure your phone is programmed correctly and that the ROM didn't change something critical in that regard. Dial *228 and select option 1.

Good luck!

I i were to root on 2.2 would i have to unroot to update to gingerbread
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
To receive the T-Mobile over the air update (OTA), yes. But there are plenty of gingerbread ROM's available in the dev section.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dubie76:
If your here on XDA then you probably are curious about using your phone to its fullest abilities. Running stock roms hinders that. I recommend rooting, and flashing CWM, and a custom rom. Get that sucker going!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
as L&B said. If you are rooted running a custom ROM you will not receive the update from T-Mobile stating that 2.3.x is not available for your phone. T-Mobile doesn't know what phone you've got when you are using a custom ROM so they don't know what ROM to push. However if you are running a rooted/s-off standard ROM you will need to revert back to an unrooted state before preforming the update.

The great thing about hanging out here @ XDA is someone i'm sure will post a ROOTED version of the updated ROM shortly after T-Mobile pushes it out. So you can remain rooted, [backup/wipe] flash the new ROM and have the best of both worlds.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concorde380:
If i were to wait until gingerbread would i be able to root
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GazaIan:
Probably, but can't make any promises. Either way, the update that T-Mobile might be pushing OTA is available in Dev section, as well as tons of other awesome ROMs. Take a look, you might fall in love. (With a ROM, not a developer.. I'd hope O.o)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concorde380:
Link please
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
If you're using XDA, you have no need for OTA's...Devs will always turn OTA into optimized versions instead with more features, so there's no reason to be concerned with OTA's, they dont offer anything special.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concorde380:
Ok so where can I find the gingerbread update
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Where can you find the official T-Mobile update?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimbernator:
I wasn't... there was pretty much nothing new about it in comparison to the 2.2.1 stock ROM. The only thing noticeable different was the quick settings in the notification bar, and even that's pretty minor.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
:eek::eek::eek: but it ranks much higher on the Quadrant then the standard 2.2.1 ROM that T-Mobile has out. So your say that Higher Quadrant always doesn't mean better performance!?!

:rolleyes:

To be honest all of our developers do a awesome job.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Lies! Are you saying my MT4G with a Quadrant score of 1.8 K-Jiggahertz isn't faster than one that gets a score of 2k! :eek: Impossible I have tweaked the ROM so much that it has imploded into an iPhone 1G. Tell me that isn't true power. To me I want 2.3.3(mysense) since it allows me to use the Sense 3.0 apps/lockscreen and some apps only work on Ginger.

I would post in in the development but... that great rule doesn't let me.

People were having issues with accessing the recovery menu.

I get to the recovery screen (some people were having trouble, if you have your tab plugged in and adb reboot recovery it'll get you to the charging screen, just hold the top vol rocker and power and you get to the menu where you can choose the icon for recovery and another for "downloading..." dunno what that one is)

anyways, if i select apply update from /sdcard it's empty, I tried changing it to update.zip but still no dice. Is it in the right directory?

[General Questions and Answers] doktornotor:
You need to manually move whatever your want to SD. (In settings you can choose apps, dalvik cache and libs; do not bother with libs, they will be back to /system after reboot). Anything already on SD (the native way, in android_secure on FAT) needs to be moved back to phone first.

N.B. You need a second partition for this on your SD card, in case you have not done it, it will not work at all :p
[General Questions and Answers] nixie2121:
I moved everything back to phone then did the link2sd with libs and see no difference in space left
[General Questions and Answers] nixie2121:

[General Questions and Answers] doktornotor:
What lib file? Yeah, you are very confused really.
[General Questions and Answers] nixie2121:
because you said not to bother with linking the libs..

my real question is this...

should link2sd save more internal space than just moving all apps to sd? if so.. mine did not..

try to partition your sd card via adb. idk why, but when i tried to partition via clockwork, i had sd-ext as read-only. u can check if link2sd is mounting ok in shell (comand: mount) and look for /dev/block/void/179:2 on /data/sdext2 line . also check if ext partition is ro or wr.
