You can try to beat them, or you can go ahead and join them. Say you’ve gotten your hands on an unlocked iPhone, and you want to use it on the T-Mobile USA network. If you’re simply using the iPhone to make calls and SMS, then usually all you need is to pop in your T-Mobile SIM card and you’re good to go. However, if you want to access the Internet and use MMS, you’ll need to enter the settings for T-Mobile. This guide is for iPhone OS 3.0 and above.

First, navigate to Settings -> General -> Network -> Cellular Data Network
