    What version of ios are you on? Did you lose cellular network after a software update? If not, you may just have to restore your phone through itunes to get cellular network back under settings..

    All the t-mobile APN's are here: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/T-Mobile_APNs

    FWIW, I'm running the $5 data plan on my iphone as well, and it is working fine right now. (But I might be on a different data plan than you -- mine runs through the following APN- internet2.voicestream.com)

    I don't think anyone is going to be able to figure out what you did/what happened based on what you are telling us. The cellular data tab should be there under settings. You can jailbreak and install ultrasn0w to unlock the phone if you restore. You are going to want to use a custom IPSW for your restore since you are running 4.2.1.

    i am only getting GPRS (the blue circle)

    if i use epc.tmobile.com, i can't get ANYTHING. when i ordered it from tmo cust svc, the rep asked me repeatedly if i was going to use it with an iphone, so of course i said "no" i am using it with my razr.

    has tmo blocked edge from us now?

    No, it works. I am using the exact same data plan as you, but I got it for $5 /month (I called with an even older phone than the razr and asked for a data plan add-on).

    What's the blue circle? (BTW- I think GPRS is 2.75G EDGE on t-mobile). Do you mean you are getting a "o" instead of an "E" on your status bar? All the "o" means is that you are out of Edge's service range (drive somewhere where you are in range of Edge)... Based on what you've said, it sounds like data is working fine on your phone. If t-mobile port restricted it, you wouldn't be able to use the full internet at all (they wouldn't just block edge, but leave you with slow data).

    This is typical. Only one of the APNs should work (from my understanding of it). internet2.voicestream.com is for sure a good APN that works on an iphone (i.e. it is not port blocked) with Edge. I use it everyday.

    Here's all the t-mobile APNs and info about them: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/T-Mobile_APNs

    ^Did you load SpookET's T-Mobile carrier bundle?

    The reason I ask, is because his bundles do not show (or allow) editing of the apns. Did T-Mobile customer service give you the 'correct' apn to use? Even SpookeyET's bundle can be changed but it requires a bit of plist editing on the phone
