Any idea ??

Hello,
i had the same problem some months ago. My solution: I took a application called tdClock (You may download at http://www.freewareppc.com/clock/tdclock.shtml. This Application is a Today-Plugin displaying a Clock at any side of the screen. As Background Immage you can use a self-Made *.bmp-File, which may contain your Provider-Logo.
Okay, it is not Out-of-the-box, but for me it is an very nice solution and the large clock at the today screen is very helpful too.
Hope, that help.
Best Regards from Berlin!

Hi miwu !
Thanks for your contribution, but what I am looking for is a today plugin which display permanently the provider you are connected too !
I am living in a 3 country borders, if I do not take care, my gsm switch to the international providers easily ! It would be cool to see the provider name on the Top of the today !!!
Any other idea ?

Hi TotoR,
sorry, with the application i described you can only display an image, changes of the Network-Provider will not take any effect (or you have to change the picture everytime you change your provider :wink:
The only chance i see is the solution of cam in this thread. Sorry.
Best regards
Michael

Hudson Phone Dashboard does tell you who you are connected to, you can set it up so the only part that stays on the screen is just the network status.

SIM Switcher Software Compatible with WM5 ?

Howdy folks,
I used to use WiViT SIM Status Switcher with my Magician, which worked well.
I would like a similar application for WM5. (WiViT SSS will not install on my Wizard)
Does anyone know of such an app that will work with WM5?

try this
it is a slight variaTION AND works with WM5 devices. i use it on the EXEC.

great stuff thanks ! i'll give it a shot

SSS does install now, thanks. But how about the license. The code you were given wont work on a different device. . . .

Just had contact with one of the Wivit developers.
A WM5 version is planned.
Just give these guys some more time.

I installed the download link on my mda II, but I can not start the application, does anyone has a function version / software for switching in WM5?

Does anyone know where I can buy a dual sim adapter for the Wizard (XDA Mini S) please? I don't want one where you have to cut up the SIM.
Thanks in advance.

It's a today item which has to be enabled from within settings

Next version STK compatible?
Hi,
I use a dual sim solution where you have to cut your sims.
This worked fine, and the new dual card seemed to work.
It even made a new entry in my program group called "Hypercard"
I didn't had time to fully check it out, but that program is gone after shut down the device or do a soft reset..
Any way to get it back?
I also tried Wivit Sim Status Switcher, but only the cab i found here (Sim Switcher.cab) worked, although i had to manually edit the registry to reflect my Dutch ROM. (Program Files to Programmabestanden)
It would be great if someone could create a Dutch cab or could tell me how to edit..
It doesn't seem to switch the SIM's though.. Possibly because i run WM5 or because the adapter uses STK? (Sometimes it just dissapears from Today/Vandaag screen..)
I really hope Wivit's next version is STK, WM5 compatible. (and multilangual?)
Thanks,
allegro16

This version of the sim-switcher works great with my mai-12 dual sim.
One glitch though: after switching, the operator is not shown anymore. The software only says Registering...

Hmm, I found out how to get it back:
Disable in your settings / today / items the Sim Status Switcher
exit the settings screens until you're back in the today screen.
Enable the Sim Status Switcher again in your settings, and voila: There is your operator again.
:shock: ???

Guys,
I've updated VJVolubilis to control the phone radio. I've put in a function to toggle the radio on and off, so for me, launching it twice will switch my dual sim. It should work on WM5, but I've only tested it on the emulator. Could I ask if anyone gets a chance, just to give it a quick go?

I cant get rid of the 'registering' . . . .

Like mentioned earlier in the topic:
Just disable/enable the plugin in the Today screen settings, it should work ok then.
I still hope the soon start replying to their mail..
They asked me to beta test and translate to Dutch, so i send them a Dutch copy of SSS, but haven't heard from them yet..

Irritated the hell out of me.
The Languange file is just a text file, choose you language and just edit the text. I replaced it with ablank space
B.t.w. I still can't use it to switch SIMS, I need to go to the STK, switch and then turn the GSM function off and back on again. Anyone knows witch DUAL sim adapter handles V1 and V2 sims and can be used with WiViT's switcher?
Thanks, cheers,
cacti

le_cactus: have you tried VJVolubilis? I use a dual sim that uses fight mode to switch. VJVolubilis hopefully works on WM5 and Wm2003 to switch sims this way.

Tmobile settings: where can I find them

So, you hard reset your device, you do the softreset to avoid all the branding rubbish and .... your phone won't work because you don't know the password to the internet connection settings and so on.
Question is: where can I find the t-mobile settings, web and walk included?
TIA!

There is a website I found recently called Google.com . It's some kind of search engine. If you enter "t-mobile uk gprs" and hit search it comes up with loads of links. not sure if the first one helps. Try it out.

Ah-ha. You must feel like a big man now.
Plus, you're wrong, they are not that easy to find. Looking at the first links on the search string you gave, they all list the username for the t-mob connection as being 'user', whereas mine is 't-mobile'.

here it is - but they dont work on some (ch) roms,works fine on my rom with web n walk

For USA T-Mobile users, here it is:

Just in case you want to add them in manually TMobile and all the UK service providers details can be found in this post over at the 4WinMobile.com website.

please help

How do I install from this cab file?

Not sure if it'll work on your device, but give this a go:
V

Vijay, maybe you want to rename the file to GPRSsettings ?

Hi guys, thanks very much for all the replies!
Signed_UNI_TMO_Connection_112100.CAB did the trick. I didn't seem to need the other file (MMS settings). The only other file I had to fish out of the extended rom is the long_dtmf one. If you don't put that on and try to dial a number, the phone hangs on keypresses :lol:
I'll let you know if I see any other required cab I might have missed. So far the phone is behaving slightly faster - not as big of a difference as I've seen on the O2 branded ones (which hurt from all the crap 02 leaves on them).
Cheers!

Would also like to add, without all the tmobile stuff from the extended rom, my battery life has doubled. Brilliant!

if U want to not install branding rubbish, after calibrating touch screen, ppc starts installig. U've got some 3seconds to softreset(small black hole below usb connector) press it and trick is done. Other way use ext_rom unlocker (www.buzzdev.net) remove or move (move is better, there are gprs,mms and other settings in .cab files, U'll figure it out which of them U need) all **** from ext_rom and hard reset

Well it's definitly there in the German ROM.
Can't make screen shots right now.
First you can see the homezone display as a today plugin which enables itself when you are in the homezone.
And there is a little icon on the upper right side of the dialer screen if you are in your homezone.

Homezones are based on BTAs?

forum.xda-developers.com

There is only one Homezone (but 3 would be cool) with o2 Germany and city zone is still existant in old plans like mine.
But city zone doesn't get displayed but it doesn't get displayed in other UMTS phones either. I'll get a small voice notification when I start a call now.

My cellular phone can show name of city i'm actually in. Is this similair to homezone?

Few Questions.

i know im a noob but i have a few important questions i need to know.
1st. Can you use wifi without the data plan? I bought a unlocked qtek to use on cingular and i was wondering if using the wifi on my home router was free. I really dont want to see a surprise data charge on my bill lol.
2nd. If i bought my qtek unlocked, does that mean it comes already pre registered with the wifi G or do i have to install the cab i found on xda forums to make it G. Thanks again!

Hi ipodlover77 - welcome to the forum. Using wifi as you describe is free. With some of the newer roms it is already set to G, but if you have the same rom as me (see my signature) it will not and then install the cab you found - if you use the one i made it will affect the wifi settings only

oh, then can you please give me the url of the wifi settings you made? will the settings work on a unlocked qtek, used for cingular? thanks. and also, is it possible to stream youtube videos form the site on ur qtek? and finally, (sorry, i always have a lot of questions ) how would i know if im using cingulars data charge on wifi or my own? when i scan for networks on wifi, will it says like "pay"? thanks again for all the help.

My cab is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=254420&page=15&highlight=wlan
Yes the settings will work on an unlocked qtek used for cingular. You should be able to stream youtube videos via your wifi router although only those that suit your screen size will prob work properly.
You should never have to pay to cingular for using your wifi on your home router - to test this you can switch your phone to flight mode (phone radio off) and wifi will still work. The only time you would have to pay for wifi is when you connect to a pay wifi hotspot and then you would have to subscribe to the service first.

so what is the difference between the wlan g tweak and the wireless plugin tweak? and also after downloading the right one, do i just move it to the memory card via usb and open the .cab over the phone? thanks

wlan g tweak - sets wlan to g mode and wireless plugin is a today screen plugin showing operator, bluetooth and wifi status. Yes that is correct way to install

No problem, this forum helps noobs period!
With the registry wizard this can do the g tweak for you, so you wont need my cab if you are going to install registry wizard.
Sorry dont know mms setting for cingular as i am uk - do a search it will be on the forum. What is book up? - do you mean look up? = google.
Ah ha quessed it now - backup! I use Spb backup and find it very good - http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en

Try this then - (from coolsmartphone.com) TinyTube.net continues to get better and better. They've now made it even easier to find, send and watch your fave YouTube videos on your mobile. Take, for example, this YouTube video. Notice the URL - it's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCLYGoM1GrU. Now, if you'd like to watch that on your mobile all you need to do is type http://tinytube.net/watch/RCLYGoM1GrU into the address bar. Just copy the "RCLYGoM1GrU" bit and stick it on the end of http://tinytube.net/watch/ - this can then be used or forwarded to any mobile user via text or email as the address to get the video.
TinyTube fill a very important "gap" that other sites such as Google video have already plugged - being able to convert the Flash-based videos into 3GP format for viewing on mobile devices. TinyTube.net have now added an "SMS this video to a friend" feature for the USA with plans to roll out elsewhere soon.
Boot up software = how do you mean? for what purpose?

2nd) what is the fastest rom? Im using the updated qtek firmware and it is VERY slow. And i was wondering if there is a rom, that does everything the qtek rom does but alot faster.
3rd) how do i take that fricken vibration when i send a text message? I hate feelings the vibration for only sending a message.

Hey you have set up your own thread for Q's lol. First change your name to Wizardlover77 and we are in business!
If you just turn your wifi on via comm manager it will automatically search for you. Others use wififofum http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1020
Plenty of roms out there - which rom are you using? i.e. the numbers
There is molskis rom that gives you 30mb free ram and farias new 3.2aku rom just to mention a couple. Browse the wizard upgrading for a week or so before deciding to upgrade and you will need to decide if you have a g3 or g4 chip - ipl numbers - .001 = g4
Change your notification settings for messages in settings\sound and notifications not to have vibration.

Sprite is the only app that can restore after a ROM upgrade

ok. So when i turn off my phone, it says some data will lose? which exactly will the device lose?
and also if i turn off my phone. does meschles Wifi G tweak, erase? it says its still installed but are the settings messed up or is it perfectly fine still?
ok I thought of another problem. like I said before I don't have any data plan on my package so I'm surfing wifi over my own home router. ok so I found this really cool site that actually streams the videos to my phones WM. is this costing me data I don't have? the videos streaming url was like mms something. just want to make sure its not costing me money. and lastly do they charge me for downloading stuff from the internet straight to my phone while using my router connection? thanks in advance!! happy thanksgiving everyone!
