Did you reinstall the power kernel after updating to PR 1.3?

Re: IPv6 T-Mobile US Beta Test
 

No, I didn't have to. I did however had to re-install the kernel for power user settings (v0.11). After PR 1.3 I checked in xterm and the kernel was there, just not enabled.

A guess, you might say... I had read elsewhere that the ipv6 authorization settings on the account are prone to drop out when the account is modified -- this being a beta program after all. Before, I had tried re-installing and configuring the libicd package and still I was getting apn connection failures. Sure enough, soon as Cameron re-authorized the account I was able to connect successfully!

Re: IPv6 T-Mobile US Beta Test
 

Being dropped is a result of the beta status. It is most often triggered by the user doing an account update (calling customer care, upgrading ...), which then triggers the account to be overwritten without the flags for the IPv6 beta program.

Re: IPv6 T-Mobile US Beta Test
 

You should ask your friend to try again. The beta is open, but the beta status means there are some manual processes and mistakes can be made. The only people that get rejected are iphone and android users, since their devices do not support IPv6 on the mobile network .... maybe someday.

Ok, to get more info on what's going on, you can put libicd-network-3g-ipv6 into debug mode:

[run these commands as root, it'll disconnect you]
initctl stop icd2
/usr/sbin/icd2

This will print out the connection messages to your terminal.

If it's a matter of not having ipv6 support, it'll say:
ifconfig: socket: Address family not supported by protocol

If it's something else, it should say something like:
[X] failed (com.nokia.[Y]): [Z]

That error message should hint to what's going wrong.

After you're done with debugging mode, you can turn it back off with:

[this will disconnect you again]
hit control-c and you'll get a prompt back
initctl start icd2

Thanks for your help gentlemen.... After Cameron verified that my account was still good, I decided to do some deeper file checking and in a slew of sloppy script writing *facepalm*, I found the problem and all is good. After visiting www.whatismyv6.com to verify my connectivity, www.v6.facebook.com and ipv6.google.com were also done swiftly. And of course the swimming turtle...

Re: IPv6 T-Mobile US Beta Test
 

I got accepted in the Beta today, and I followed the instructions here: https://code.google.com/p/n900ipv6/wiki/README
Everything was OK, the IPV6 connection was created, I changed the APN to ccinternet2.t-mobile.com, but still can't connect. I only have 2.5g here, could this be a problem?

When I try:
initctl stop icd2
/usr/sbin/icd2
icd2 will seg fault each time I try the ipv6 connection (but works fine with wifi).

Any ideas?

Re: IPv6 T-Mobile US Beta Test
 

2.5G is fine. I'm able to connect if I force it to only use 2G

Does it print any messages before it segfaults?

such as:

using non-default apn: ccinternet2.t-mobile.com
Attached: GPRSAttach
Available

Does it crash after you select the v6 connection, or when it presents you with a list of connections, or right after starting icd2?

Re: IPv6 T-Mobile US Beta Test
 

When I start icd2, it will stay there and do nothing indefinitely. However, as soon as I tell it to connect using the 3G ipv6 connection, it will say:
using default apn
seg fault
