5) If data isn't working go into Settings - Cellular & Data, turn on the Data Connection, then go into APN settings and make sure the top option (Internet/WebConnect) is selected and hit OK. You might have to restart. I found after restarting the Data Connection option turned off but I still had data working. | 5) If data isn't working go into Settings - Cellular & Data, turn on the Data Connection, then go into APN settings and make sure the top option (Internet/WebConnect) is selected and hit OK.

=== Refill your prepaid phone plan === | |||
If you got a SIM card from a B2G Ambassador back in October, you may be on a $60 plan (instead of a $30 plan). You'll need to go to [http://t-mobile.com t-mobile.com] and switch your plan. | |||
Here's how in a few easy steps: | |||
# Have your SIM card in your phone, and your phone on. | |||
# Go to [http://t-mobile.com t-mobile.com] and select sign-up in the top right (under MY T-mobile). | |||
# Put in your phone number and follow the instructions to activate with a text message. | |||
# Once you're logged in, see if you're on a $30 plan. If not, click Change plan or services under "My current plan". | |||
# Select the $30 plan, click Next and your new plan will be activated. | |||
# You should get another text confirming the change. | |||
# So you don't have to manually pay each month, you can set up Auto Pay with the directions below. | |||
=== Set up Auto Pay === | |||
You can enable Auto Pay to automatically fund your prepaid phone plan each month. | |||
# Go to [http://t-mobile.com t-mobile.com] and login with your account. | |||
# In the right sidebar, select "Sign up for Auto-Pay". | |||
# Use a credit or debit to add $30 to your account each month. | |||
Note: You will need to disable Auto-Pay at the end of the Test Drivers program. | |||
