Does the proxy trick still work to get $6.99 internet working on Shadow? I had it working on my SDA perfectly fine, now I plan to buy Shadow, and I just wanted to check if that still works?

Thank Y ou.

It's no different for the Shadow than any other WM device. T-Mobile has for a while now been working at implementing stronger enforcement of subscription service levels. Some users can still jury-rig their devices to get full access at T-Zone pricing, some can't. Seems to vary by region, and to some extent by device. i.e. -- your luck might be better with an unbranded HTC ROM than it would with a T-Mobile one. It'll either work or not -- good luck!

Yes it works - it is the $5.99 T-mobile Web (or T-zones) that you need to add to your account and then click on the following and follow steps 1-3.
It works for me - it is just really slow - like dial up pretty much, but works when needed, good for google directions and stuff like that.
internet for 5.99

It used to work for me, but stopped a while back -- it's the total-internet-package or nothing for me now...

Thank you everyone for the responses.
Chazznet, where do you live? I heard that it is disabled in some areas.. I am not sure, maybe it is because you are roaming and using someone else's network (but still under T-Mo service) and therefore they do not allow data? Do you live in rural area?
