Switched over from browser to Data settings on My HTC Raider. Cannot get the phone to work. Even if I go back to old settings, no internet. Spoke to speakout, they said to use setting on the question page of their website. No luck. Anyone else having problems connecting? Any solutions?

Create a new apn. Then the only setting you need to enter is this:
APN : internet.com

I spoke with speakout and they referred me to the data settings on their website. If that doesn't work talk to your manufacturer. I called HTC and they worked me for almost 2 hours trying to get it to work. They even called speakout and tried to work with them to get it working. Speakout only referred them to the settings on the question page. Speakout wouldn't even work with the manufacturer! They said we are not responsible, you need a new phone. HTC said very sorry
I post on this forum and one answer, one setting, internet. com fixes my problem. You would think speakout would have this simple information. Terrible tech support.
Thank you very much for the help!!

SpeakOut of course does not have to provide any support for phones that they do not sell.

this is not about support the phone but setup issue on their side.
APN setting is the simplest and it is entirely the carrier side responsibilty. If one use an APN that doesn't work, it has nothing to the phone.
this problem indicate that their official APN still do not accept SO account/sim. As for using internet.com, my test suggest that it is throttled to 240bps or so. Though I am still on UMB so not sure if they have the ability to distinguish 'real data' account vs 'old' and throttled accordingly.

Practically everyone getting the data add-on will be using a non-Speakout smartphone. So Ian's comment (is he justifying it?) is plain stupidity from a customer service point of view.
I could never get the official settings to work, both on a Huawei and a Samsung phone. However, I found that by changing the setting for 'APN type' from 'Default' to 'Internet' made it work.
I would be interested in knowing if Chimpanzee's comment about internet.com being throttled is true.

Not a stupid comment at all and it make perfect sense in customer service. Just stating the fact that they do not support non-SpeakOut phones. That goes with any carrier. Why should any carrier give support to a phone they do not sell?
There are many people who come here asking why SpeakOut will not help them with their non-SpeakOut phones. Now they know why.

I don't think so. I have experienced with MANY carriers(in various countries including here in canada) that gladly help to make sure a BYOD works with their sim for things like this. So that goes only with SO.
this is not asking them to fix a phone(as if they are responsible for the hardware) but the right setup which all phones are basically the same.

You must have been lucky, as I have experienced carriers that do not offer support to BYOD anymore, including carriers I have used in the USA.

Hey Guys!
I've been watching SpeakOut for a long time and JUST switched to them about a month ago when they got Data. APN was working fine up until now but then I had the same issue as the rest of you starting yesterday morning. I've just fixed it (I'm on an Android).
And so, I've registered an account just to help you guys fix it to (hopefully)!
I updated my APN settings to exactly the following:
————————————————–
3G Frequency – 850mhz/1900mhz
Name: Rogers [3G]/SpeakOut
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com
There's a section there with APN settings for Rogers network.
Good luck to you all!

“What are the data settings?”
“In order to access the new SpeakOut data plans, program your device with the following settings:
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn
MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com
MMS Proxy: mmsproxy.rogers.com
MMS Port: 80
APN Type: Default
APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN Roaming Protocol: IPV4/IPv6
If you need assistance adding these settings into your phone, please contact your handset manfacturer.”
Failed to see yours and SO's recommended so not sure why some people said it is not working.

Yeah, the "official" settings you just posted are the settings I was running since I hooked up on SpeakOut with data 1 month ago and stopped working for me 2 days ago for whatever reason.
In the settings I listed are very similar and the IP address posted for MMS Proxy is simply mmsproxy.rogers.com - converted to IP. Perhaps it was the "APN Type: default,supl,mms" that made it start working again, I really have no idea. But now it works unless it was just sheer coincidental timing.
I hope you guys get your data working again though. I'm running Android 4.4 on my phone, unknown if that has any factor in this. It shouldn't, but who knows...

the ONLY thing about it not work is, you need reboot your phone after change the settings. That because some cellphone only apply the changes after boot.

Tried using the internet.com APN, the Rogers APN, and the APN settings provided on the SpeakOut page.. I tried rebooting it for a minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes. I climbed the Everest and searched for the Holy Grail... ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WORKS. Just wasted my money on the useless Data plan I can't use. Someone friggin help me. Anyone?????
I have an Android Gingerbread if that even matters anymore

Yep... of course i enabled it... I already paid for it. I even got the text verification that I got the Value Plan with the 100 MB Data enabled. Still NO connection.

I believe Dennis was asking if data is enabled in your phone settings.

The other thing that people may forget to do is to make sure that your new apn has been 'selected'. Does the radio button for that apn show that it's active?

Yes to all of your questions.... Still no connection.
I'm probably gonna reset the phone to factory settings... then try all the APN and see if it works.
