o2 PayG on XDA2i
Hi,
I too had this problem - I finally managed to find out after visiting several phone shops that you can't access o2 web via prepay, only wap.
Something to do with way PayG service works.
when you do a major reset itll ask you what sort of sim ugot....and then sets all the gprs n wap connections...that might do...

Hi there
I'm due for an upgrade (got a HTC Wizard @ mo) and wanting to avoid carrying mobile & blackberry - have read that I can put BB Connect on Kaiser and this seems a good option.
My question is - work use Vodafone for BES - but do I need to be on the same network or can I stay with Orange and get BES activated on my account? I use my personal phone (had same number for years!) and just bill the company back - so would prefer to stay with Orange (for call plan) if possible.
Have asked Orange (UK) and they couldn't give me an answer that made sense, so thought I'd ask here!
Thanks for any help

Your Kaiser can work as a blackberry if you install BlackBerry Connect 4 on your device. Regarding the SIM card, it has to be the one given by your Blackberry service provider. I mean if you use Orange for the phone, and if Orange is not you blackberry provider (it shouldn't be) then you will have to put the blackberry SIM card in your Kaiser and use another phone for your Orange SIM card (I know blackberry can also provide the phone functionality if you ask it and of course pay for it...).
I know you can put two SIM cards in your Kaiser using a specific tool (the brand name is SIMORE) but I don't know if it works with the Blackberry SIM cards (all I know is that is does not work with 3G ...).
thanks for the reply - what do you mean when you say that Orange shouldn't be my blackberry supplier?
surely i can get phone & blackberry on the same sim card, rather than use 2 sims?
not sure if i have an answer to the question yet either. to receive work e-mail do i need to be on the same network (i.e. vodafone) or can i be on a different one (e.g. orange)?
thanks

BB Connect comes on the application disk and is running on my Stellar right now. Obviously you have to tell O2 you want a Blackberry tariff before it will work.
I've had it running since I got my phone on Friday and my only complaints so far are that it didn't pull down all my old emails off the server like my 'real' Blackberry did/does and it appears you have to go through the Blackberry Internet Explorer shortcut to browse the web.
Blackberry tariff is £10 a month for (allegedly) unlimited email and browsing, though I suspect there is a FUP of 200meg, like on the data bolt on.
Hello All,
I bought a prepay Side-Kick Tmobile sim card in Memphis today, after activating it and toping it up. I put it in my Kaiser. Auto connection setup started nicely and found tobile USA settings.. whoever, I am unable to attatch to the data network.. when ever I try and connect, the E with arrow icon starts working around, but then it stops and a message reading: Cannot connect for unknown reason (then it goes on about changing settings etc)
I looked everywhere for answers, (as I id like to think im more intelligent than just asking a question that could be dumb :-D) but i could not find a thing that worked about this.. and the things i did find were not helpful..so apologies in advance if there was an obvious place for my answer but i missed it some how..
The Device Information is:
ROM: Dutty WM6.1 WWE (CE OS 5.2.19716, build 19209)
Date: 04/01/08
Radio: 1.64.08.21
Protocol Version: 25.74.40.02H
I would hope that someone can help me, as i am desperately needing to get connected... im visiting from the UK and my silly sim card malfunctioned and i can no longer get online :-(
Many Thanks
the other day i saw a cab that said ::
"use this when you have trouble setting up t-mobile" ..

has a cab and instructions.. maybe its for you.. if you try it, please report results
Sidekick data tries to connect to Danger (manufacturer of SKs) Servers for internet connection, any other devices will not work on that service. You need to use the service that they offer for regular cell phones called Tzones or the data plan for smartphones

I tried the file (its one of the solutions i found and didnt work before posting).. what it did that it refused to even try and connect. it was something to do with having the Prixy settings active..so really im not sure what to do..
I tried to get through to Tmobile CS, but im almost sure that they will have no clue on what to do, but i was too late in the evening, so I will try tomorrow..
Any more ideas are Warmyl welcommed!
Thanks
from what i've read it seems that the sidekick data plans will not work on our devices.. as i was planning to do the same thing it seems that only the unlimited text would work not the data probably due to the fact that the data connects through danger which would detect that it's not a sidekick.. i was disappointed to find this out b4 as well
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr
So what does a man have to do to get access to get pay as you go mobile access( in the US)!? does any one know any other service provider that would sell me a prepay sim that will have some kinda daily data package?
cant tell you who dissapointing this is!

I totally agree! I ran into the same problem as you. I am in the USA for 3 weeks and want a cheap (prepaid) mobile data connection. The best option seems to be: T-Mobile Total Internet Plan $40 month-by-month unlimited EDGE + WiFi.
ATT also sells prepaid sims under the name Go Phone...

Yes.. I found that out.. but they said in the ATT shop that it doesnt allow data access :-(
The Sum of All Fears!
Well to sum up,
I managed to get through to tmobile CS, they confirmed what was mentioned before about Side Kick servers. so the anser is No to all other devices besides to "side kick" (the handset)..so no Kaiser, or anything else!
I guess that i will have a new addition to my sim collection!
Many thanks to all that gave thier opinion and tried helping out
Ta
i actually had the same problem. and i downloadede a Dutty Tmobile set up worked wonders! make sure you install it to device .
i downloaded the zip onto my memory card. inserted it into phone searched my memory card opened the zip and used the DUTTY tool to set up connection. installed the program onto device and once installed you will need to do a soft reset in. once the phone comes back on it will prompt you to set up the tmobile connection.
hope it helped

Hi, noob here so bear with me! Just unlocked my HTC Tytn II ( from Orange) and eventually managed to get GPRS and MMS working on a Virgin PAYG sim (details from another thread on this great site). Decided to get myself a Virgin contract with 6 months free Instant Messenger and as GPRS was only 30p a day. Unfortunatley to keep IM free I cannot go through the normal MSN Messenger link. Virgin customer services sent me a link to download but it says my phone is not supported. Any ideas/fixes/cab files would be much appreciated before I revert to another phone for 6 months! Thanks.
Hello, my dear talent xda delevelpers,
I bought a T-mobile HD7 online few days ago, and i am using it in China now, the operator is China Mobile. I face some troubles these days, and i am searching the whole world but i can't get the answers, please help out.
1. How to identify HD7 is unlock or not? Then i know if i need to unlock it.
2. I could not get any date service (Wifi is not available for me), i am sure i input the correct APN but no data service in HTC HUB/marketplace/Emails, ect. Data connection of the same SIM card works on my old phone O2 Xdalli perfectly, but not on HD7. Is it because of not unlock or how can i get advance settings?
3. I heard that there is "CONNECTION SETUP" on other HD7s, but i cann't find it in marketplace or HTC webside, can somebody send me this app? maybe i can solve the data connection problem with it. Also, i want an "ATTENTIVE PHONE" app, please send me as well if you have.
4. My last question is, i got a T-mobile SIM card in the box, is it come along with any balance or package? Can I use it in China by roaming?
Waiting anxiously and really appreciate your help. Thank you so much.
1.Try putting your local sim-card ,if there is no network then yours is locked.
2.For data connection , I got HTC Connection Setup.
You can download it from Marketplace.(its under HTC apps)
Since you dont have Wi-fi I recommand you do this setup at your friends,Or at some internet center.
3.Sorry I dont think its currently possible to send over apps.You have to get it from Marketplace yourself.
4.As for the last question , hy dont you try using the T-Mo card and see what happens

1. Yes i am using my local SIM and got good reception, calls and SMS works fine, is that mean i got HD7 unlock? How to identify lock or unlock?
2. Still i could not find connection setup from marketplace app. Under genres, there is "tools", and i rolled so many pages but i cant not find. I searched also, there is only an app named "student connection", do you have an address? or tell me how to find it?
3. I successfully make it prison break, haha
I will try my T mobile SIM later, and see what happens :)
