My carrier is small and therefore doesn't have its own Network.
It rents networkspace from a larger carrier who has a Network.
Problem is that WP7 display the name of the larger carrier and not my real carrier then I'm in Windows Phone.
Windows Mobile and Android had no trouble with this.
Any idears on howto make WP7 display the name of the carrier correctly?
It should say "CallMe" which is the name of the carrier which I use, but they use the base Network of a provider called Telia.
But WP7 shows "Telia" as my carrier, not CallMe.
Doesn't WP7 have this ability?
same here (for giffgaff), but it's no big deal, there's no need to stress about it, it doesn't change any functions what-so-ever.
Why is it so hard to follow directions and post in the right section

Dude that WP7 doesn't displays a carrier correctly is in my opinion a development related question.

WP7 must be "missing" a feature which Windows Mobile had. Since it can't see Our real carrier?

In Norway we have two big carriers with their own network, Telenor and Netcom. Myself I use a smaller carrier, Chess, using the Netcom network. That's why it says Netcom, and not Chess. It's the network you are on, not your carrier.

Ummm i never thought of it but i dont think improving GPRS speed can be done by software...
i hope there would be something like this but i dont think its feasible...
the technology is available
http://www.bytemobile.com/html/Client_products.html
this is the producer and it already has a desktop software considered revolutionary.
it is implemented by vodafone, orange, t-mobile ... and i have the PC version. i was looking for the PDA version

Such a software exists. My norwegian provider NetCom has one availiable here http://www.netcom.no/Content/images/aksel_pics/netcom_ce.exe
I have no idea how it works, or if it is operator specific, but I had no trouble with it (except that it takes up valuable RAM)

Thanks, I guess that's probably what I'm looking for. But can you tell me if you're using on an XDA and how did you installed it. I cannot get it running. Also if there are some settings to do.
Thanks again,
Decebal
I tried that one and didn't really get it working, but even worse, now can not completely get it uninstalled!
In the Applications screen there's still an "Akselerator" Icon I can not delete. If tapped it says it can not find the application "Spawner" connected to that icon. Wierd.
What can I do?

Peronalizer 2.0.
i think they meant change the whole phones programming not just the operator name
Dear "TheChampJT",
I want to say what "nxtech3" is what I want to do. Not only to change the operator name but to move to another operator in my country who use a 800 Mhz CDMA system.
So, I want to know if it is possible and If yes, how to do it.
Thanks for your reply.

You need to:
1) Have an operator that is willing to enable the phone's ESN in its system. MANY CDMA carriers simply will not do this. It's not a technical block, but rather a simple matter of policy. If the ESN is not enabled on the carrier side, the device will not work.
2) Get your device's MSL (Master Subsidy Lock) so that you can access the programming settings.
3) Get all the necessary settings for your new carrier.
4) Program the device manually with EPST.
5) Update the PRL from your new carrier.
There you all are, bragging about latest Rom updates and customisations and this and that and here we are stuck with T-Mobile Rom 1.43.110.2 release date 28/10/09. Loads of things that don't quite work and no support from T-Mobile......I feel that we have been mugged. Would the sale of goods act work for us if we beat the drum loudly enough?
Just Gold Card it and stick on your choice of ROM.
1.61 WWE/TUR works fine for me. It self configures the network settings and only needs the proxy disabling.

"WE" ?
So much for "thanks for the feedback"
Instead of throwing a wobbly why not do as advised ? Read the forums, methodically. Every time you find something on your phone which 'won't work' you need to search the forums and read the threads. You will find the answer to all of the 'issues' with your phone.
Since pocket pcs and smartphones were invented it is a fact that the manufacturers are not as good as some of the chefs on xda developers at cooking up ROMs. Mobile suppliers have always under resourced the phones they issue, the branding has always been rubbish, the phones always locked. Licensing issues have always meant that what one mobile phone provider giveth the other taketh away.
One thing remains constant: there has (nearly) always been a workaround and the workaround was usually devised on xdadev !

why can't you just HSPL it and install your ROM of choice?

without a stock rom from your provider to go back to if it all goes wrong the warranty is worthless.

Agreed -it worked for me.
Two things.
1) The stock t-mobile UK ROMS are on this forum. Search for posts by a user called Football and you'll find what you need as a backup.
2) Disabling the Proxy didn't work for me on it's own. I had to find the setting to update the connections database first. Once that lastest connection database downloaded, I could then disable the proxy and viola, Peep started to work.

Add to that not all t-mobile UK ROMS have the proxy issue.
Hi Guys,
Is it possible to change the phone number of my Froyo phone on Bell without reverting back to the stock ROM?
Thanks!

I believe that you need to have something like CDMA Workshop, where you can connect the device to the computer and change all the programming of the device (including phone numbers).
I believe there are codes as well to access carrier programming directly in the device, but I don't know them. Although, I have seen a few threads with these codes around xda.
I know my new XevRev rom for WM6.5 would allow me to program/PRL update with Verizon, it is currently untested with other carriers though but I wager it should work since I made the roms carrier specific. It's not droid but you shouldn't have to flash back to stock without relocking.
Since I switched service to MetroPCS with my EVO and Metro did an outstanding job in leaving me phone-less for a full day and a half due to not programming it properly, I had to search around a bit myself and came across a few codes that may help:
##DATA#
##DIAG#
##000000# (note that if the zeros are for the MSL number. If you have CID unlocked the device, this code should probably work. Else, you will need to figure out your MSL. You can use MSL Reader, which is free in the Market). BTW, this last one is the EPST Programming, which is where you can change the phone number. Having said that, play with this at your own risk and back up every single number that you change by writing it down somewhere in case you need it again)
Has anyone figured out how to get two different APNs working on WP7?
My service provider uses one APN for data and another one for MMS. I can get the data working fine but MMS is a different story.
Anyone do that?
