really all that's important now is that I can disable 3G on her phone, and I just cant figure out how. Is there a simple registry edit or a smartphone comm manager around? I tried a few comm managers but they didnt really disable it, I just want it off so it always uses edge
It was time she got an upgrade, so I had her get the burgundy colored Pantech Duo. So as I've heard there is no Roms for this phone yet, so what should I do to her phone? where would i find some compatible homescreens? perhaps the Vox (wings) homescreens would be compatible? I'm not sure yet what I can do with the phone, Im gonna put HTC Home on it if that works.
o man im pissed to find out it doesnt have wifi!
here I was excited she can finally have internet in her room.
makes her and I even more mad that her sister's BlackJack II has wifi.
damn...no secret wifi chip inside the pantech that we didnt know about?
See if you can get your hands on a MicroSD wifi card... They make them but I don't think they're on the market, not sure... But the Duo supports it. Also, there's something called HomeScreenBuilder (use google to find it), it's free and very customizable for her homescreen in WM6. I just sold my Duo recently, but here are a few other programs to check out...
DuoSTT (Answer calls by sliding phone open, hang up by sliding closed)
SmartToolKit (Better start menu, task manager, cleaner look)
TCPMP and there's a flash plugin for IE to play youtube videos, search the att forums it's posted under pantech by my username
Opera Mobile browser, if you download the trial I can get you a serial # (Just go to "register opera" and PM me your device ID)
hey thanks! i didnt know they had a wireless microSD card.
Now I just need to wait till it's avaible somewhere, I hope the price isnt too bad..
I'll put some of these programs you've mentioned on, as well as HTC Home. Is there a customizer for it like there is for pocket pc? or a way to change which icons appear.
I bought this phone for my sister. I think its crippled a lil without Wifi, but she doesnt care about anything but the cool red color and 2 keyboards... *rolleyes*
But to the point, if you are looking for other software, I would recomment using Conduits Pocket Player if you/she would like some music on it. Also, Newegg is selling 4 gig microSD cards (SanDisk) for 14.99. Worth looking into, wish you luck.
There is a 6.1 windows rom upgrade beta rom out for this phone. I have had this phone for a few weeks and am liking it from my 3125 that died. This was a warrenty replacment for me. Figured I could use it for a year and then when my contract is up look around.

$14.99?? talk about a good deal! now only if they could make that WITH the wifi.
well at one point she too wouldnt have used wifi, but when i went over to her house and connected to the wifi at her house with my Tilt from "ANYWHERE INSIDE THE HOUSE **OMG**" now she really wanted it, i got her hopes up to cause i assumed every windows mobile phone had wifi, should make sense shouldnt it? well i guess not lol. she doesnt have computer in her room and the next best thing is if she could get on msn and look at her myspace from her phone in her room, lol.
As far as a media player, I'll probably just have her use tcpmp, being it's the best for music, although not the prettiest, maybe Coreplayer? but I've tried coreplayer and i wasnt able to add onto my playlist, only load a series of files at a time.
Will the Duo work with a 4gig card? I heard it will not read any higher then 2 gigs.

lol there I go assuming things again...
Am I really that out of the loop? when did HTC stop using wifi in their new devices?
---------
you know what also pisses me off, her call quality is horrible, can barely hear what the person is saying, sounds like she has a blown speaker, but from reviews I've been reading this is really what it sounds like.
and what has pissed me of since the very beginning, was I didn't want her to get this phone originally, I wanted her to get the nokia N75 (she would like it better) but it has been discontinued now.. and there are not any other s60 devices right now.

I put my 6gb SDHC card in and the card icon showed at the top, but I was not able to explore the card, so besides that it didnt show up anywhere.

well, because there is no Wifi, horrible camera, and horrible sound quality, i would not recomend this phone. However it does have a nice Xscale 416mhz processor. I tried some games in Finalburn and they ran very nicely!
for a smartphone I would get a nokia phone, but for a touchscreen phone I would get a windows pocket pc.
In my book Nokia wins the non touchscreen phones, I'd like to see them pull of a s60 device with a touchscreen.

Okay first off your avatar pic reminds me of a very good friend. But every skater looks like that. But secondly, The BlackJack II is made from Samsung. I dont know where you got HTC from Take the duo back and get a new phone. So far it's not that good. As far as I've heard. And I think that HTC stopped making smartphones and the BJ II is a smartphone. Well originally the BJ I had wi-fi (the european version anyway) but at&t decided to cripple it and take out the wi-fi chip. The BJ II was never actually released with a wi-fi chip. I actually suggest you tell her to get a BJ II or go for the Tilt since it's the only phone that at&t offers that has wi-fi (besides the iPhoney and the Crackberry)

I dont recommend the tilt to anyone who isnt technically inclined and/or willing to tinker. It takes too much work to get the phone into a sweet spot. It will be a pain in the ass to update 2 - I barely have time to keep up with updating my own, lol.
I completely agree with you...my wife can't stand my tilt but she isn't tech savvy like I am.
I love the Tilt ONLY because of XDA though...if I weren't able to find the sweet spots I have I would have returned it long ago. I am spoiled...never again will I own a phone I can't customize as much as I do now.

Really? I guess I'm just naturally tech savvy. My tilt is actually my second wm phone. I had the BlackJack first. I didn't find xda until maybe 2 months after I got my tilt. I had already customized it to my own knowledge, but this site made it even better. I guess you're right. It's probably best to stick with crackberry and nokia.

haha well if you live in washington that may be me..
well I have told her to return it and wait around the august - october area, but she says she will only return it if I can find a device now, well I have, but it's discontinued, the N75. But i know in a few months there will be more phones.
She doesnt like the blackjack II, and i dont blame her, I dont like phones that are wide and have the keyboard on the outside.
She likes my tilt but cant spend $300 - $500 lol
I also agree, i wouldnt like my tilt if it weren't for xda. the stock AT&T rom sucks, and it would be too plain!
well nokia requires just as much work, that is the fun of nokia, is you gota install the doom emulator and then customize it.

Not really :S Can't she upgrade? My friend recently bought a tilt. It was $100 instant (making it $199 from $299) and then $100 mail-in-rebate (making it a final $99+tax).

really? i know buying it outright is $550, then with the 2 year contract it's $350, then with the rebate it's $250, but that's as cheap as I saw it..
even then i had to pay $350 for mine cause I guess you had to buy either the internet plan or messaging or something to get the rebate, and my parents didnt wanna do that.
I guess her dad told her she has to stick with this phone, so. yeah, gay, lol.

Guessing you're over 18? Random sorry lol. But how about the LG Vu? or the Moto Q global? The tilt is $149 /w 2 yr contract (after mir) in my zip code. Don't know why'd it be any different in yours. Well the refurb is anyways. The new one is $200. Link. Also check amazon.
EDIT: Wow, you bought your phone late. I bought mine in Feb 08 and it was $350 (/w tax) after rebates. (Although I payed for the phone myself and none of the monthly bills ha) If I didn't take messaging it would have been $450 for me. Some people were especially lucky. There was a time where the tilt was only $74.99 after rebate with a new contract on amazon. That also included messaging/internet. I really think it was worth it though. The rebate, not for you anyways since you would pay min $20 for 6months which would be $20 more than instead of getting the rebate. I had a employee discount which takes off 15% of my monthly bill, so it was a saving of about $25 so I took it. I mean what the heck who cares lol. At least I got messaging too. So my real total was about $425. Which is pretty hefty. Now going back, I could have bought a tilt from ebay or something for that price. :S well that's the problem with tech. It gets cheap too quick. Btw did you check out that slick new white BJII with the pink and the blue background? That totally looks sick. I would get that if it wasn't a BJII and a BJI instead lol
Ok so let me tell you my story. I had a iPhone it got stolen so i bought a g1 fell in love with android but missed iPhone so sold G1 and got iPhone again. Got tired of iPhone and bought G1 and now i have a iPhone 3G 16GB and a G1. I saw the Nexus One and fell in love. Now my question is should I sell my iPhone 3G 16GB for the Nexus. Is the Nexus that great? And how much could I sell this iPhone for on eBay? Please helppp
Wow, you do need help, and I thought I was bad.
personally, i'll be keeping my iphone and switching back and forth till the android market gets close to all the games i have on my iphone...
i have 8 pages of games (no apps, just games) on my iphone so i wont be getting rid of it, also i have a custom red backplate that i installed my self and ordered from hong kong
i also have a g1 but i dont use it cause of my iphone... just pick it up here and there
when you had your G1, did you like it? Essentially, what makes the nexus one better will be the snapdragon processor. it will make everything faster compare to the G1 or mytouch 3g. Yea android will not have as many games as the iphone. i'd say buy the nexus one, try it out. if you don't like it return it. go back to your iphone
Yea I do need help lol. Well I only use my iPhone for music. The apps got boring and i don't even play the games. I just use my psp or ds. I barely even touch my iPhone now I just use it as an alarm. The only reason I went back to the iPhone before was because 3.0 came out for it and I thought it would be awesome but it really wasn't. And plus I have the iPhone unlocked for T-mobile and could only use edge so it was pointless to have a iPhone 3g. Main reason I kept G1 was 3g and because I just fell in love with android. So to get to the point lol how much would you suggest sell the iPhone for?
dont listen to firedup hes probably just hating cause he cant get a nexus one. Its your money and your decision.
Nexus One = Slimmer G1 with bigger higher res screen, faster processor, more RAM, and latest Android OS. (oh and no hardware keyboard)
If that is what youre looking for in a phone, then you have every right to buy it with your own hard earned money.
why sell it, you are just going to buy another one
Keep the G1 and iPhone while buying an N1 and call it good.
Lol I'm selling the iPhone because I need the money for the Nexus.
i'm assuming since you're using the iphone on tmo then its unlock and jailbroken? hows the condition of the phone? if it still in good condition, i think people will still pay good money for your iphone. list it on ebay and let people bid on it. let it ride out. lol. good chance you can get anywhere from 300-400 for your iphone. Is it 3GS? Then you get even more

Whoah there, steady on! I've got a Nexus being delivered in the next 2 days! I was being serious, I need help as well. I've bought every HTC premium release since I can remember, plus a few others and iphones!
Its a 3g. Haha i put it on ebay for 425 and it sold in 5 minutes but it was a scam but i put on craigslist and got an offer of 220 and unlocked blackberry storm. i think i might try to get a 2yr for tmobile and get it cuz currently im on easy plus which isnt 2 yr
or you could flash a 2.1 rom have neXus_on3 with no live wallpaper.... lol
i'll tell you my story.
early nov i ordered an e71. then a little bit of dust accumulated under the screen so i swapped it for a new one a couple weeks later. then that one had a slight wobble in the battery door, and my original one had absolutely none. so i swapped that for another e71. then i saw a fleeting deal on ebay to purchase a nokia e72 at 20% off, and this was just a month after it's original release. so i jumped on that deal. now i have an e71 and an e72.
i'm returning both of them after i receive my nexus one tomorrow.
i figure i made out pretty good, to use two phones for practically 3 months at no cost whatsoever.
well i have a iphone 3g 16gb i bought for 350 a while ago and im currently trying to sell that and my modded banned xbox 360 for the nexus. I also have a g1 but wanna keep that for testing purposes. OMGGGG I want this so baddddd
I just sold my iphone 3g that was well used on craigslist for $350. Also put my mytouch up for $230 and have gotten several serious callers but i will prob just keep it. i cant wait to get my nexus tomorrow.
yea im thinking of selling my iphone for 220 and a storm but idk yet. im currently bidding on 3 nexus's hoping (actually praying lol) to win. I put max bid for each at 250 but i doubt ill get it. But im i can get 350 for my iphone and 100 for xbox ill find the rest and order straight from google lol
I ordered a Milestone and a N1 and don't know wether I want to keep both (I like them both and beginn to hate my Xperia X1, sometimes it's so sluggish)
Couldn't upgrade from my easy more plus for some reason. I was on a family plan with my sister and then did a change of responsibility and transferred my line to my own plan but technically i am still under contract til my sisters is over according to a T-mobile rep . But i may have hope the lady at the store told me that the 2 yr from my sister isn't over til August but she said i should still be eligible to upgrade to nexus and to keep trying because T-Mobile and Google are discussing problems people have been having with upgrading. But i read online that in the long run nexus + 2 yr is more expensive then nexus full price + easy more plus. So I'm gonna sell iphone on ebay
I've only owned the iPhone 3G. I didn't want to be the first to jump on the 2G because I thought it was asinine for Apple to release their first phone on 2G when we already had 3G. I loved the iPhone but the main gripes about it were lack of customization. I did the whole jailbreak thing and got all these cool apps but with Winterboard and themes you'd run into crashes, apps just rebooting, etc.
I mainly switched because I'm pissed that the new iPhone will be minimal at best but yet many people will flock outside on launch day to get the device. I've owned Nokia phones with video recorders and a FLASH! It's frustrating to see a company nickel and dime people with *Magical & Revolutionary Features* that have existed on phones for almost a decade.
The only thing Apple has going for them is the App Store but hopefully Android will catch up and people will see the light.
I'm going from paying $250/mo with AT&T to $120-$140/mo with Sprint. I've since sold my iPhone two weeks ago and I can honestly tell you I don't miss it. I"m using a temporary crappy Blackberry 8900 for now until launch day.
I am giving up my 3GS for the EVO.
I have coverage issues with AT&T.
Like you, I am saving a bunch of money, even with the EVO 4G $10 surcharge.
I also am jailbroken. I admit the iPhone is an amazing phone and when you jailbreak it, its even better. I came from WinMo, had a Tilt and with xda-developers modding your phone is a completely different experience than jailbreaking.
I think the only thing I'll miss is the 32GBs of space to carry my music but then again, my iphone will just become an ipod touch and I am ok with that.
I pick the EVO over the next iphone for screen size, Android (long live an open OS), plan pricing, and overall awesomeness lol.
I am curious what the new iphone is going to have though.
Were going to test out the Evo's, and so long as it has good battery life, Sprint data speeds are = to AT&T and the phone isn't too big we will make the switch. Otherwise we will be selling our 3gs's for the new iphone hd's.

Why not just get a 16GB or 32GB micro SD for the Evo?
I have the incredible on one account from client that pays for my service and phone.
I have AT&T with the everything plan $120.00 a month. No tethering. IPHONE 3GS - jailbroken 3.13 - all sorts of stuff.
Not a big app person. I use Timewerks and thats about it as far as a paid app. I have never paid for anything else.
I already enjoy android so I will enjoy it 30% more with the larger 4.3" screen
Froyo 2.2 here I come. This will give it the boost without a hardware upgrade
I won't miss the Iphone. I had too many problems with mine. I am on my 5th warranty phone in less than 4 months - all lock ups/glitchy. No it was not the jailbreak. two of them didn't make it outside the Apple Store. Happened while I was walking out.
I couldn't complain to get a better phone the 3GS was the best they had.
I like HTC and their innovations so far. Keep them coming.
I am leaving the iPhone. I have been a fanboy since the 3G was released. I now use a 16GB 3GS and have been watching and waiting for the phone that would make me switch. The Incredible was close, but the EVO got the job done. Just posted my iPhone for sale on my local craigslist and eBay.

You do realize that this phone accepts MicroSD cards, right?
Pre-ordered Evo last week. Sold my 3gs yesterday. Bought a hero on a sprint account for a temporary phone that allows me to test android out and see how sprint is in my area. That way I can always return my hero within the 14 day period, get my Evo, and if I hate sprint/android or both (all very unlikely) then I can cancel my sprint account, still have my AT&T account for 2 months (altho already ported my number to sprint, hopefully can port it back to AT&T if need be) and when the next iPhone is announced if it's better than evo (also highly unlikely) then I'll go with that. My 3gs netted me $281.35 at the shack so money isn't a problem with any of these phones, and I have lots of options. Can't wait until the 4th!

Leaving Iphone 32gb 3gs
I admit that I'm a phone whore. I am in between an HD2 & Iphone 3gs 32gb. I started with the original HD, but the HD2 wasn't all that great. I am just worried that the Android Market will not have enough apps to keep me occupied. Thats the main thing that I like about the Iphone. Also, the apps on the HD2 from Windows Market place seemed out dated and tired. I hope Android does a better job than Windows Mobile.
Can't wait. Defiantly going to sell my 3gs after I got to play with the Evo at the Sprint store. It should be awesome with the Everything Family Plan.

Are you serious? You could have gotten more than $300 for the 3GS. You could have gotten more if it were on 3.1.2 software, jailbroken & unlocked. Could have fetched close to $400 if not a little more. Never sell your phone to Radioshack. Oh well it's all said and done now. BTW you can port your number back to AT&T.

more details good sir...I have a jailbroken 32GB iphone 3GS on 3.1.3.
I am aware of the 32GB SD Card myth....are there high quality ones out there? I haven't kept up since I had my tilt.
I'll definitely pick up a 32GB just have to look for a good price.
Im dumping my 3gs for the evo. I had the 2g, 3g, and the 3gs, sick of apples grasp getting tighter and tighter.
I already picked up a 16gb card for my EVO, still gotta wait until next week though. Don't know how much music i'll load, maybe only a few albums worth at any given time. Most of those 16 gigs will be for movies...gotta make good use of that kickstand!
Currently use an 8 gig card on TP2, most of it is movies running on CorePlayer.
Amazing the premium you pay to have that kind of storage with iDont.
I've been with AT&T since 2007 when the first iPhone came out. I've had the 2G and 3G, but passed on 3GS since it really wasn't much of an improvement. So now I'm switching over to Sprint, and I'm a little nervous about it due to my previous experience with Sprint during the Nextel merger/walkie talkie phase. Luckily, I have a 30 day guarantee if I decide that this beast (EVO) isn't worth crappy service. Worst case scenario, I awkwardly go back to AT&T if the iPhone HD impresses me or take up Verizon on the Incredible.
Just curious - anybody out there also have a cell phone addiction? LOL People think I'm nuts to have both a T-Mobile account (love the ability of unlocked phones, sim swapping, etc..) as well as a Sprint account (love the coverage). Anybody else out there double dipping?
I try to save the most amount of money possible (even considered at one point switching to Virgin Mobile for their $25 per month plan on the intercept) so theres no way in hell I'd have two different cell phones.
I can give you a list of rehab clinics in your area though if you'd like
Im not on 2 carriers but this cell phone **** is getting out of hand with me I got the nexus S yesterday im done with obsessing over this.
People are starting to think I do for buying this phone without a plan.
...Honestly, I told myself I'd use this Wifi-only. But it's just such a waste, I need to start looking at cheap data plan options... Maybe T-Zones?
Okay, I have a problem.

Having 2 phones or 2 services for that matter isnt a problem if you are using them. I know a lot of people who have work phones and personal ones.BUT if you use both as personal phones to make the same calls, then its a bit obsessive. You could have bought something similar like a laptop and do basically the same thing as a phone minus the talking.
I may not have accounts on different providers but I must have bought like 5 different phones this last year only. I started 2010 with an iphone, then by March I finally saw the light and got rid of my iphone and got a Nexus One with at&t. By august I upgraded to a Dell Streak with its gorgeous 5" screen, but a month later wanted to go back to a SAMOLED screen and got me a captivate. Unfortunately I couldn't get used to the smaller 4" screen so by December I got the at&t tab, which has been hacked as a phone, and so far I'm loving it.
Nevertheless, I think I have a problem. Is there anything like a therapy group for people like me? Help please! :-$

i went through checkout process just didnt commit to buying, doesn't seem like it needed a plan to buy phone
good for the ones that like those $50 bestbuy phones a while back or could use a spare wifi toy/music player
Virgin website says 50$. Today only. No jelly bean for poor one v but solid budget phone.

Does anyone know of any GSM phones at this price. I am going to Artentina next month and do not want to take my Galaxy S3 because of it being too flashy and with the depressed economy there I would be a target to get robbed. I just want a good phone with a good camera for almost nothing!
If you live in Canada the Koodo HTC One V is $125 (gsm). It cost liek $4 on ebay to unlock it

for something like this, i'd just search local craigslist with the search terms "-virgin -boost -sprint -verizon" and set the price limit to like $50-75
I just looked, you get some old g1/optimus/lg marquee/galaxy captives around me for about $50-60 on android side, even some windows phone 7 for $75 like the focus flash. some old iphone 3s for $50 if you can fix them
edit: actually some fairly nice phones in the $50-75 range here lol, saw a hp veer for $60, so tempted to pick it up to match my hp touchpad

Just search GSM, almost all those listed networks are CDMA and won't work.
