Overview
Here are the T-Mobile Internet and picture messaging (MMS) settings for the Apple® iPhone®. These instructions were designed around iOS 5.1.1. These settings may work for other versions of iOS, however their placement and/or naming may differ. If you have access to Wi-Fi, we recommend starting with Setup guide: Apple® iPhone® for the fastest and easiest setup.
Important: The Apple® iPhone® is missing the WCDMA 1700/2100 band, and cannot function on the T-Mobile 3G or 4G network until after our network reallocation has been completed. For this and other ways we're making it easier to enjoy the iPhone, check out T-Mobile Steps Up “Bring your own iPhone” Efforts.
Note: Read the disclaimer and notes on unsupported handsets, devices, and software for additional information.
