Strobe Q.

Jul 21, 2006, 4:31 PM
So I got a Strobe, mainly for the text/AIM feature...and cant use either. when I try to use AIM, it says "checking for upgrade" for a looooooooong time and then "retry when coverage is better." It wont let me send a text, I get an error message saying "retry in 1min(s)?" and it is rally frustrating me. I'm paying for the access pack, $20/month, and cant even use it! any tips, I'm anxious to get this fixed and test the phone before my grace period is up

call tech support...you might need a code added to your line...or it could just be your handset is defective...

Hey, I have a friend who has Alltel, he has a phone that flips open and can do wireless internet. What phone is that? Is that the strobe? That would make that phone seriously cool for some of my business customers.
