Former Suncom Customers...Plan Change?

[RaQHoliday]

weird i am a old suncom person

i added the data plan and didn't change anything else. my phone is working fine have not tried in a 3g network yet.. i have been just running on edge. in my area

all i did was put in the t mobile card in because the suncom card was not programmed or something ( forget what was wrong with it) and i do know they said the old suncom card would not connect to the 3g network

so we used the t-mobile card and everything is working

Have you verified that they didn't go and change your plan for you or anything like that? I'd double-check it just to be on the safe side, my dude.

OK, phone arrived... got my suncom sim card in it... voice and data working without issue at the moment, but no MMS apparently. Trying to figure out how to add the APN so that i can receive MMS's properly

Any old Suncom customers out there who live in a 3G market? Atlanta maybe? Are you using your old Suncom sim? I'm in the same boat with the other posters in this thread. I'm using my old suncom sim card (no t-mobile sim card came with my G1), kept my $50 unlimited plan, only added the $25 G1 data plan, edge here in Charleston, SC works fine. I really want to know if it's going to work when I visit 3G markets (and when we eventually get 3G here in Chas). I have not tried MMS yet.

I posted this on another forum, but figured I'd add it here as well.

OK, MMS weren't working... I dug around a bit and found the APN settings for Suncom...

A little experimentation and a couple failed msgs later and VOILA. The APN settings below will allow you to send and receive MMS msgs from the G1 using a Suncom SIM card:

Name: Suncom MMS Data
apn: mms
proxy: <not set>
port: <not set>
username: <not set>
password: <not set>
server: <not set>
mmsc: http://mms.suncom.net:8088/mms
mms proxy: 066.150.033.125
mms port: 80
mcc:310
mnc:490
apn type: <not set>

With the settings above I was able to both send and receive MMS Msgs ... hopefully these will work for you as well.

just checked my bill online i still have my suncom 39.99 plan for 800 mins and i have the g1 24.95 plan

no change

Just checked mine on My Tmobile also and have my old Sun Com plan 1000 national min for 29.99 and they added the data plan for my G1 at 24.99 I noticed they still had me billed for T Zones (my former data plan from Sun Com but renamed by T Mobile) at $5.00, called customer service and they removed it. No need paying for 2 data plans when the G1 data plan covers it all.

Check your bills Andriods from the planet Sun Com and check to see if they're trying to double dip you also.

OK, i received my phone friday.. just peeped My T-Mobile, and the G1 data plan isn't on there, even though the phone is working fine. No idea why...
