1. Connect your Vibrant to your Mac with the USB cable.
2. MacOS should prompt you saying that there is a device connected and not set up. If it does not, click on the Apple Menu, select system preferences. Select the Network pane.
3. The device should have been named as SAMSUNG_Android. Select it.
4. Start with the advanced options. Click the button that says ‘Advanced.’
5. Under the Modem tab, use these options:
- Model: Samsung
- Model: GPRS (GSM/3G)
- APN: epc.tmobile.com
- CID: 1
6. I left the DNS, WINS, and Proxies tabs alone
7. I read on a blackberry forum that under the PPP tab, ‘TCP Compression’ had to be checked.
8. Click ‘OK’ and return to the Network Pane.
9. I used these settings for the SAMSUNG_Android configuration.
