Hey courtney,

To get internet with T-Mobile you need to sign up for one of their internet add-on plans. If you get the full internet plan, “T-Mobile Internet” just use the APN for that service (internet2.voicestream.com I believe, but I haven’t tried it.)

Otherwise, if you only have T-Zones, take a look at the end of this unlocking guide for a hack that may be helpful:

Hi Alex, it’s Linh from school.

I was able to jailbreak and unlock my 8gb iPhone on Windows XP Pro.

I used http://iphone.unlock.no/. Key things:
- DO NOT use the most updated iTunes. I used iTunes 7.3.2 from http://www.oldapps.com/itunes.htm.
- You must have a wireless network to access your iPhone via SSH.

I tested it by going to a T-Mobile retail store and signing up for their Total Internet Package for $39.99/month. It includes unlimited access to their EDGE network & Wifi HotSpots.
I put the SIM card in, changed the Access Point Name (APN) to T-Mobile’s APN, left the username & password blank. Did a soft reboot and I was up and running in a matter of minutes (9/24/07).

*YouTube was not working after the unlocking process. I downloaded the patch from http://limitededitioniphone.com/youtube-not-working-on-your-iphone-steps-to-fix/.
- Make sure your iPhone is connected to your computer and execute the batch file. It will search for your iPhone and patch it so that YouTube is working like in it’s pre-unlock state.

I hope everyone is enjoying their iPhones!

–When in doubt, start over by restoring your iPhone with iTunes.
