Hmmm. Tried it again in a 3G zone last night and it was a lot quicker, so that side of things IS fine after all.

Just need to see if anybody else has got the same issue with the FB or Logic Mail apps on T Mobile...

Yeh I've not paid for the BB Booster because as far as I read it, that only enables push email which I don't want / use.

A mate on 02 has a very similar sim contract with another unlocked Blackberry and it all works fine for him with his 02 APN settings :(

Got an unlocked BB Bold off a mate, using it with my T Mobile sim I've had for a while now on various packages, and just changed it to Solo so I get unlimited internet.

I can install Google apps fine, and browse the web, but I can't get Logic Mail app to work or Facebook v1.7; the 2 other apps I want on there.

Facebook says "Could not connect because a data service is not available. Please try again later. If this continues, contact your service provider for support"

And Logic Mail says "could not connect to server" instantly.

I got the APN settings off T-Mobile's site for the iPhone as thats the only settings I could find on their site, and the ones I found via Google didn't work.

APN: general.t-mobile.uk
Username: user
Password: pass

Anybody else in the same boat as me? I'm pretty sure 3G doesn't work as quickly as it should either, so guessing something's not quite right. Google did also seem to throw up a lot of people having issues with the Facebook App, so could be that?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Rich

P.S - No smart arse comments about moving to another network etc etc, I don't intend to!
