OK, so I’m just making sure of this. I also don’t have a data plan and I used the APN settings Dave stated above, its sending and receiving MMS fine. Now my question is will I get charged for this? The reason I’m asking is I’ve seen mixed responses of people saying you get charged without data plan. Is this only without APN not changed? or even true at all? Thanks

Please help me out. I’m gonna need to buy the data plan and then cancel it to use my G1. I’m wondering how I do that and exactly how much it will cost me.

BTW, I’m using Even More Plus.

Install something like APNdroid. If you’re running Cyanogen(mod) or anything like that, data status is in the menus somewhere.

And how might I do that?

Jay, I know T-mobile did not let me transfer any data without the data plan enabled, but ATT did, and I was not charged for that (maybe I did not use enough). At any rate, just save yourself some trouble and disable data on your phone.

I have the G1 without a data plan. Is it true that as long as i have no data plan i will not b charged for accidentally clicking on something that involves data transfer? ( no byte by byte charges??)

Hey everyone, try this!

FIRST APN, set as below, leave as-is for all others not mentioned:
Name: t-mobile
APN: wap.voicestream.com
APN type: default

save apn.

Create SECOND APN, set as below, leave as-is for all others not mentioned:
Name: t-mobile MMS
APN: epc.tmobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS proxy: 216.155.165.050
MMS port: 8080
APN type: mms

save apn.

It’s working for me. Using epc.tmobile.com for my default APN worked for sending and receiving MMS but it would also use data. When I used wap.voicestream.com data would cease BUT then the mms wouldn’t work, so I think for the default you could even set it to anything random and as long as you set up the second APN as I have it up there you should be good. Spread the word if it works for you!
