    Im using tmobile to-go with a motorola V330 phone.

    I rarely use the phone so I dont want a contact.
    But can I access WAP sites using my above mentioned phone.

    Cause when I try to access a wireless site for instance cnnmobile, my phone states

    You do not have access rights to this site

    What can I do? Any info?

    Re: Possible to access WAP internet using Tmobile To-Go ???

    i have a tmobile to go phone which i havent touched in ages and it is way less "sophisticated" than yours and i was still able to go online with it at wap sites. It may be that you have a block on T-mobiles side. Call customer service if you cant access any site.

    Also you must have money in your account to go online, if you have a balance of zero then that is the reason why you cant go online. your balance does expire, i hope you know that.

    I love my cellys

    No WAP for To-Go phones unfortunately unless you pay an EXTRA monthly fee! WTF

    Thanks ELLEN, you are by far the most knowledgable person that has spoken with me on the handful of sites I have asked this question!

    You're even smarter than the TMOBILE telephone operators!!!!!!

    Hi Ellen
    Could you please let us know the URLs for accessing these sites via WAP:
    ABC News, CNN, ESPN, and Amusing Info

    Something would be better than nothing on the WAP for "T-Mobile To Go"


    BTW, I tried: http DOT wap.go.com/wmlabc/start
    did not work

    T-Mobile To Go has a few free limited sites that you can go to with their very limited prepaid T-Zone. The following sites are currently the only ones that you can use at this time; ABC News, CNN, ESPN, and Amusing Info.

    BTW, I am able to connect to GPRS on my HP H6315 PDA Phone.
    I am also able to access Yahoo Messenger.....but that is pretty much the only application which works..........nothing else works

    No Ellen,
    Since my device (a HP iPaq H6315 Phone) is so old.....it does not even have T-zones on it anywhere.

    It has pocket internet explorer....but anything related to T-zones is not there in the favorites.

    Any other ideas ?

    Yes, I do have T-mobile To Go.

    But where is T-zones?

    I have a HP iPaq H6315 bought from T-mobile themselves. The device runs Windows Mobile 2003.

    I bet there is a URL I can enter into Internet Explorer (on my PDA phone) and access T-zones......just that I dont know it.

    i just installed Klondike WAP browser and now if I try to connect to any website I get this error:

    The server has reported the following error:

    "500 Internal server error"

    I called T-mobile ...... they say that the HP H6315 does not support T-zones.

    They also told me that the only way to get internet access from T-mobile on a pre-paid plan is to get a Sidekick. The rep told me that on a prepaid sidekick you have unlimited internet access. She told me that sidekick uses some special server via the "hiptop protocol".

    Not sure what that is.

    Hi there try the following settings for Klondike:

    Launch Klondike.
    Click menu (lower left corner)
    1)General Tab
    Set homepage as Http://wap.myvoicestream.com
    3)Connection Tab
    Connection Type: Http connection through a proxy server
    Proxy server settings:
    Domain: 216.155.165.50 Port: 80.

    Good luck, hope it works.

    no this does not work. I get this error:
    The browser could not open the WAP site: same url as you posted

    Reason: a connection with the server could not be established.

    Also if I try to use "WAP gateway connection" as connection type.....I get :
    Reason: Timeout waiting for reply

    But here is when it gets interesting:
    If I try to use direct HTTP connection and try to access the homepage (the one you told me to set the homepage to) I get redirected to this:
    10.176.39.70/resources/webpages/error.jsp
    I then get this message:

    Error Unknown

    Your homepage is temporarily unavailable. Please try later.






    I think T-mo has specifically denied us access.

    You can always use the WiFi to access the WAP.

    Ellen, the WiFi should work, right?

    Re: Possible to access WAP internet using Tmobile To-Go ???

    Yes, you are right....the tech support confirms that.

    The problem with Flex Pay is that I still wont get any internet UNLESS I add the internet for 20 bucks a month !
    Also No free T-zones because this iPaq does not support T-zones (thats what they say!)

    That is asking for too much for SLOOOOOOW GPRS. Furthermore I dont plan to use internet on the iPaq regularly.......only for emergency access.

    .....so it does not make any sense to me to ditch my prepaid.
    Thanks anyway!
