hi,

i ve just switched my wireless to t-mobile pre-paid plan. i was using whatsapp and twitter apps by just wifi connection. but now i couldn't use whatsapp or any other apps. on the left top of the screen writes uma and i can't turn off t-mobile network wireless to just use wifi. I turn off wireless network connection manually. but just after a sec it pops up again automatically, on the check box of wireless network connection there is no check sign but on the top of the screen t-mobile - (wifiname) writes. and uma jams my apps connectivity to net!!.

please help me to solve this jamming.

thank you.

thank you for your reply, but that doesn't work either.

once I connect the device to the wifi network t-mobile pops up on the top middle of the screen. I receive text and calls also in that mode. that doesn't make sense to me.
with at&t sim card I didn't have such issues.

t-mobile uma stuff jams the wifi network for apps. etc.??

Have you tried turning WiFi off, rebooting your phone, and then turning WiFi back on (if necessary?)

If this doesn't work, a couple of questions:

1. Which carrier's 9700 do you have? You said you haven't had any issues with an AT&T SIM, so is this an AT&T branded 9700?
2. If this is an AT&T branded 9700, did you modify it in any way so that it can pick up UMA, via the engineering screen perhaps? Unless modified, an AT&T 9700 will not be UMA enabled.
