Configuring "Unlocked" RAZR V3?

you might have to update the phone's firmware with a monsterpack or flex file.

Those flex files/monsterpacks are available at motomodders.net which is free to join.

 

You'll have to do it manually. Here are the settings...

I just wanted to say thank you very much to MOTOhooligan for his post.

I just got a new unlocked RAZR v3 today and could not find any clear instructions anywhere on how to get the T-Zones and MMS stuff set up propertly.

Your post was very helpful. Thanks!

 

hi i am new to this forum too, i also have the same problem with setting up sms and mms messaging on a moto v620 that i bought unlocked on ebay, i am trying to set it up using my t-mobile sim card in it. i tried the info above
"SMS and MMS Settings

Goto Messeges, click on the setting button, click on INBOX SETUP or MESSAGE SETUP then click on MMS MESSAGE SETUP then SERVER INFO

Service Name: T-Zones MMS
Server Name:http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Web Session Name:T-Zones

but i had no luck, i was wondering if you or any1 else had any other suggestions or if you knew what i am doing wrong?
any help would be soooo greatly appreciated!

 

Did you ever get your phone configured? haven't used a Moto that i haven't been able to configured yet.

 

I have had success of making everything work on my phone except for the instant messanging program. if there is a way you could provide me with a server name, port number, and post url for t-mobile phone. thanks.

 

Been trying for two days to configure my razr v3 from T-Mobile for mms & web. So I googled for "configure mms for razr v3" and found this site. Changed the settings as described and now everything works!!!!!! Thanks so much for the info

 

I changed all of my settings, but I bought an AT&T phone. I have a T-mobile plan though. Am I #@%$#@!? It looks like the edge network still shows up. What happens if I use my phone?

 

It won't make any difference. You can still make calls and do what you'd normally do with a phone. The settings adjustment are only if you want access to T-Zones (or whatever they call it now), to send text messages, and access the Internet.

EDGE showing up doesn't make any difference or harm anything. AT&T phones won't have T-Mobile's 3G frequency (1700mhz) on any of their branded phones, so EDGE is all you'd get anyway.

Welcome to Wireless Advisor.

 

Thanks. I was worried that since it turns on as an AT&T phone, that I'd be charged roaming from T-mobile.

Go Manny!

 

Your phone is AT&T, not your service. You're fine, no need to worry. Roaming doesn't work the way you were thinking.

If you saw "AT&T" in your display, instead of T-Mobile, then you would be roaming (and only if T-Mobile has a roaming agreement with AT&T in your area).

 

sorry. lastly, I reconfigured my phone and I can't send/receive text messages. I changed my settings to:

Service Name: T-Zones MMS
Server Name:http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Web Session Name:T-Zones

I wasn't able to write T-Zones MMS case sensitively, but outside of that, I'm out of options.

 

As for the text messaging problem above, some people are suggesting I return to my medianet config. I haven't tried it because I don't think it'll work.

 

Not sure if you've tried this yet, but if all else fails, give T-Mobile CS a call. I did this very same thing years ago when I had an unlocked/unbranded RAZR I wanted to configure to T-Mo. They helped me out without any problem. I don't believe they've changed this policy.

I remember them telling me they'll help people get other phones (than the ones they sell) working on their network as a customer service. After all you are using their network. Though I'm sure they'd prefer people buy phones from them directly, they know GSM allows for easy swapping with unlocked phones, something they acknowledge instead of pretending it doesn't exist.
