I just wanted to share with the community that I have somewhat got GPRS working T-Mobile on a Freerunner (GTA02) with the August 8 release of Om2008.8. I'm going to paste a bunch of stuff in here, so sorry if this email is pretty confused and long. I need to say up front that I don't have any data plan with T-Mobile. I just went to a T-Mobile store yesterday and bought a SIM chip (US$10) and a pre-paid plan. The guy behind the counter asked me what the phone was that I had. I explained a little, and then he mentioned something about me being able to get free data service, that T-Mobile didn't advertise it, and that it wasn't worth their time to track down who was using it ... I don't know. He just wrote on my receipt "wap.voicestream.com".
I should also note that I didn't have to modify /sys/bus/platform/devices/neo1973-pm-gsm.0/power_on, or chown /dev/ttySAC0, or even do "stty -F /dev/ttySAC0 crtscts". However, in relation to chowning /dev/ttySAC0, I *did* modify /etc/group and add the users "uucp" and "ppp" to the group "dialout", which by default has write permissions on /dev/ttySAC0. It seems to connect, bring up the ppp0 interface, and get and configure a number of TCP/IP settings. Only DNS name resolution seems to work, but this is probably just because I don't have a data plan, or haven't figured out what ports are open to the outside world or what proxy may need to be used. Any input, or suggestions would be great. What I've done required very little modification from this wiki article: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/GPRS. The only files I edited or created were the ones you see below.
