I got my phone yesterday. It worked wonderfully out of the box. I'm a linux geek, so I immediately set to installing everything from extras and the main nokia repos. (Not EVERYTHING, but lots). Aaanyway, I also installed some stuff from extras-devel and extras-testing (I'm comfy flashing the device, and fine with having to do it).

So my internet (via T-Mobile) worked great immediately, and all last night. I even usb-tethered it. Wonderful.

This morning, and ever since, it won't connect to t-mobile's internet connection at all. It gives the message:

Internet Connection Failed. Try again?

In dmesg, we have:

Code:

So anyway, I don't know what to try next. If you missed it, the important bits were:

Code:
[13322.844909] gprs0: attached
[13328.303375] gprs0: detached
I'm using internet2.voicestream.com as my APN, it picked that up automagically. I don't know what to do next, except I guess reflash. I'd prefer to know what to do, debug-wise, though :-\

Anyone else seen this / have a suggestion for my next avenue of inquiry? Thanks in advance.

Did you use vpnc by chance? Check your /etc/resolv.conf

If that doesnt fix it you have gto reflash, I had the same problem after using vpnc on a cellular network

I got a similar problem today... I think it's caused by some daemon tilting or something like this.
However I solved it rebooting the phone... if it doesn't work consider to open a new bug in the tracker

What should my /etc/resolv.conf look like? Right now it just says nameserver 127.0.0.1. I don't think this is the issue, as it fails when it tries to connect...but I don't know if resolv.conf issues would affect it finding its apn. At any rate, I'm reflashing now. Thanks for the help

I'm sad to announce a reflash didn't help me at all. I've filed a bug. I'm currently unable to connect to the internet via the cell data.

Bug is here: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6573

I called them earlier, they said the G1 plan wasn't going to work for that phone and switched me to the smartphone plan. We'll see if it fixes it (they said it takes 2-48 hours.)
