Re: Android, please...
Past it's prime? You do know Windows *Phone* is only a little over a year old, don't you?
Or are you thinking this phone is using the old Windows *Mobile*? If so, shame on you.
Re: Update
Thanks for the informative post to this thread. :roll:
Re: Exciting
For this, AT&T got an OK from the T-Mobile brass for a buyout. That didn't pass the regulatory muster so now AT&T is having to pay their agreed-upon no-go/breakup fee.
Re: Exciting
This is the ORIGINAL agreement. The agreement was AT&T buys T-Mobile for $39b and if the merger fails they would pay T-Mobile cash plus spectrum.
AT&T is simply fulfilling the agreement they signed with T-Mobile. I can't see why you think that is wrong.
Re: I want a new phone
If I do this, will it still work as a phone?
- Yes
Will I be able to run this custom app?
- If it runs on WinMo, yes
Will I be able to post my scores via a WiFi connection if I don't have a data plan?
- Wifi does not require a data plan.
Does anyone have any advice?
- Find out it the app requires touch-screen. I prefer touch screen anyways; it's much easier to navigate around the phone.
Re: Is this the end of MyFaves?
Bummer. Really no reason for me to change plans then. I have the 700 Family MyFaves plan for $70 which gives me unlimited already to most people I call and the $5.99 T-Zones for unlimted data on my smartphone. I only use the data for activesync and the occational browsing (rare) so I don't feel bad not paying a ton for the real data plan and I doubt T-Mo would care either if they looked at my usage. ...
Is this the end of MyFaves?
I don't see any more MyFaves options on the web site.
Re: Screen in bright daylight
My Nokia 3220 seems to be very good in sunlight. Much, much better than a razer my brother owns.
Does anyone else have a buzz in the earpiece.
My 3220 has an annoying buzz, even when using the earpeice. It gets louder as you turn the volume up. It sounds like when you have a speaker turned up really loud with no music on.
Does anyone else have this problem? It could be that I got a defective phone.
Re: Best reception, RAZR or wait for Nokia 6101/6102?
That does not show RF performance. :(
Re: T-mobile release date still 9/12?
"For a Limited Time, when you purchase a T-Mobile Nokia 6101 on www.t-mobile.com or through 1-877-387-4324 receive a free hands free speaker/charger a $79.99 value!"
Probably the HF-3 here:

I'm going to the local store to check it out and if I like.
Re: Best reception, RAZR or wait for Nokia 6101/6102?
RAZR does not have the best reception. My old V60 has better reception, and so does my RAZR replacement, the Nokia 3220. My guess is the 6101 will have even better reception than the 3220.
Re: .... DALLAS COVERAGE TMO or Cingular?
Not sure about Cingular, but you can check T-Mobile coverage here:

If anyone knows of a similar tool for Cingular, or any other provider, please let me know.
Re: Who has what plan in here?
Nationwide 1000 anytime, unlimited N&W, $40
Re: Tower Location
hmm.. my phone works just fine at CSUN... :roll:
Re: Tower Location
I'm a network engineer and can tell you this guy is flat out wrong about WiFi interfering with GSM. And the "wireless systems at dorms" are not 100 times more powerful, that would be illegal and the FCC would be down on that faster than George 'putting food on his family' Bush can drop another bomb on Iraq.
Re: Anyone work for Cingular telesales?
$4.25 an hour plus $0.25 for each new customer they sign. $0.125 for renewals.
:lol:
Re: Help me pick a T-Mobile phone
Skip on the RAZR. I had one and sent it back because it got worse reception than my 3 year old V60. I'm now waiting for the Nokia 3220 to arrive and if I'm not happy with that one, I'm going to try the 6101.
Re: Does Tmobile charge for receiving SMS msgs about voicemail?
no
Re: Selling my Nokia 6230
And unlocked.
Re: Anyone here heard of VIP Tools? What is it?
gothca. And the August promo, I was offered to choose from 3 different phones. The CSR told me I would not have to do any kind of contract renewal/extension to get the promo prices. Does this sound right?
Anyone here heard of VIP Tools? What is it?
I was told I could get a phone upgrade using this program but I've never heard of this before.
Re: SGH-C207, SGH-E317, or V551?
How about the C207. The only reason I'm even considering it is because I don't really need/use the EDGE, camera, blue tooth, etc, on this phone. But if the general consensus is that the RF on the C207 does not match or exceed the V551, then I will get the Moto from CSR or a different phone off ebay.
SGH-C207, SGH-E317, or V551?
I (actually my wife) lost my phone (Nokia 6230) and I called CSR about my options. I was told that I could get this August VIP tools offering out of these 3 phones.
My question is which of these has the best reception? I've never used a samsung before, and am seeing that the C-207 gets high marks evn though it's cheaper than the E-317. With the Moto being 2-5 times more expensive than the Samsungs, I ...
Re: Can Cingular triangulate for a lost phone?
It makes sense that it it's resource intensive it would only be used in emergencies (which this obviously is not). I just didnt know if it was something that they could just punch in and find out just as easy as looking up your account.
They are, after all, keeping track of all the phones on their network at all times, otherwise how would the system know which tower to use to reach your phone when you have an ...
Can Cingular triangulate for a lost phone?
I misplaced my phone yesterday and am wondering if Cingular would do this for their customers. The phone appears to still be turned on and have signal because when I call it, it does not go to vmail right away.
Re: TMo Release Date
I called CSR tonight and he told me Sept. 9th too. I came in to post but it looks like you beat me to it.
Re: Question - for those who have the phone - about the camera
Just FYI, "true digital zoom" is no better than zooming after taking a picture. I would never use digital zoom unless you can't get the images off the camera to edit (zoom/crp) them. Digital zoom results in a lower resolution image.
You might be thinking of optical zoom (true zoom).
Re: Hey guys and Gals
I just got it because the antenna on my v60 broke. So far I'm not thrilled with it's reception. It's just a little better than my v60 with a broken antenna! :(
My v60 with the antenna intact had better reception.
I was trying to hold out for the Nokia 6101 but was tired of having an old phone with a broken antenna. I may return the v3 if the 6101 comes out in the next 2 ...
Re: How to get best price on a phone upgrade?
I believe the V3 supports 850. Is this correct?
How to get best price on a phone upgrade?
First off, let me say that I'm not EXPECTING to be treated special nor do I EXPECT to receive pricing different than is listed on the t-mobile web page.
I have a V60 that I've been using for 3 years and the antenna recently broke, or half broke. I still get somewhat of a signal and the stub is hanging on by some coil. I'm trying to hold out for the 6101 but I may get a V3 ...
Re: Handset upgrade question
What are the details on this $100 rebate for renewals? I'm thinking of getting a new phone and my contract ended over a year ago.
Re: T-Mobile will finally use MWI!!
Link to original thread I started about this issue back in November. It looks like we did it!!
https://www.phonescoop.com/carriers/f orum.php?fm=m&ff=5&fi=132879
Message said it would be switched over this week. I'm in the Los Angeles area, so I don't know if this is nation wide.
T-Mobile will finally use MWI!!
About freakin time!
I had a message on my voicemail Monday saying that due to customer complaints/feedback/requests they are going to dump the text message alert system and finally offer a true message waiting indicator.
Now I can look at them again. I already signed up for one Cingular account and I was about to dump my T-Mo and switch. Now I will reconsider.
Re: The Definitive Answer
joef3 said:
The 6230 is NOT ENS capable. Also, as far as alpha tags, your phone should always say Cingular or Cingular Extend. It can say Cingular even when using a tmobile tower, theres really no way to tell if you are on a cingular, att, or tmobile tower.

The 6230 is ENS capable and there is no more Cingular extend. The phones have been or are being updated to say only Cingular. You should review the post with ...
Re: The Definitive Answer
The 6230 is NOT ENS capable.
That's just great! :x
There is too much misinformation being given out. I wish people that didnt know would just shut their trap instread of giving out bad info. I had read somewhere on this forum that the 6230 was ENS capable. This was the main reason I signed up for Cingular.. to have that feature because of the way the dead (or almost dead) spots are out here.
Where ...
Re: The Definitive Answer
OK. I just bought a Nokia 6230, which I was told was an ENS phone. It also has a 64K SIM card.
Now here's my experience/question. So far it seems to lock onto Cingular towers even when there is a stronger AT&T signal in he area. There is a hallway at work that only gets 1 bar with cingular phones but full bars with AT&T GSM phones. When using my 6230 in the hallway it ...
Re: MobiTV - Can't wait for the 1fps video
Oh the torture of 1 frame per second...
I can't wait to watch some football at 1fps. Was that a fumble or wasnt it? I cant tell because even on the replays I miss the action as it fall somewhere in one of the other 29 frames that I'm missing.
This is not worth paying for until they can get it to at least 15fps.. stick with a watchman.
Also the commercial is stupid because portible 2 inch tv's have ...
Re: Blue Service on an Orange phone?
your new sim is probably locking onto cingulars towers first. If the sim is 64K but your phone does not support ENS then it acts just like a 32K sim. That said, your old at&t sim is picking up a stronger (closer) at&t tower, and your new cingular sim picks up a weaker cingular tower.
if you can, manually select the network you want to use. If may be deep in the menu somewhere. Mine is ...

You may be able to cancel with no ETF due to a major change in service (sell-off). Read something like this in an earlier post.
