Help! Unlocked Tilt Problems
i recently purchased a tilt online and it is brand new everything is fine with the phone but i unlocked the phone because my company switched from att to tmobile, so before i unlocked the phone my att 3g sim card worked fine with the phone, wifi worked fine 3g icon came up in network bubble at the top taskbar...but after i unlocked the phone and placed the tmobile sim card in the tilt, no Edge or gpsr icon shows up at the top next to the signal strength icon and when i click on wifi and go online everything works fine but after i go back to commanager to turn off the wifi....the wifi icon doesnnt go away from the top taskbar..its just shows the no signal wifi icon when the wifi is off. So then i took the tmobile sim card out and placed the cingular sim back in the phone and when i click on the wifi button and then press it again in commanager to turn wifi off the icon, it goes away like normal....so is there something wrong with my tmobile sim card? which is why its not showing any edge or gprs icons for some reason? even though i dont have a data plan i should see when i am in an edge area...what is annoying me the most is when i place this tmobile sim in the tilt, the wifi icon wont go away when the wifi is being turned off in wireless manager. PLz help this is very strange and i cant seem to find out how to gain these icons and lose the wifi icon when wifi isnt on.
wow are u serious nobody has had prblems with the wifi icon not going away or any other icons not going away when there not supposed to be turned on? ..this is a huge forum i know i can find someone to help me figure out why this tmmobile sim card is doing this to my phone and not allowing the wifi icon to go away from the top task bar when i go into comm manager and press the wifi off button it doesnt work...the wifi radio itself turns off and theres no data being sent to the phone from the wireless router but the icon stays on the phone and the only way to get rid of the icon is to go in comm manager and press the phone button to turn of all connections to my phone. This problem only occurs with my current tmobile sim card which is being used in an ATT 8925 unlocked tilt PLZ somebody help me get rid of this problem

I am not one to help because I am also a noob and your issues are not ones I have seen. BUT - let me give you what help I can:
Recommendations -
1. use punctuation.
2. use concrete sentences
3. specifically tell what you did and enumerate each problem separately
4. indicate what ROM you are using
5. indicate what changes you made to your phone AFTER you went to the TMOBILE card
Now - here are some guesses -
1. you had an AT&T phone with AT&T connection strings - and you think that unlocking the phone and simply putting in a TMOBILE card will make the phone work?
My guess is that you are going to have to change some data connection strings at least? AT&T is not going to allow you to use media net to surf the internet with no contract using a TMobile card.
Remember - you are asking people to use their spare time to help you fix YOUR screwup. Make it easy for them to read and help you.

You should not start more than one thread asking for help - you not only will not get helped - you will need an asbestos suit...
Here is your other thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396565
BTW: you are still not using puctuation to its best use and carriage returns to make your questions identifiable and easy to read.
Duplicate / redundant threads merged.
If you want us to help you, please take the time to use punctuation.
Thanks!

Very well said...
moegdaog:
run this cab file on your phone and after doing a Soft Reset, go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connection Setup and choose T-Mobile from the list if the program doesnt run on its own.
Thanks to Dutty for putting this together for us to share with the ones not familiar with it.
that didnt work...all it did was add tmobile data to my connections. My wifi icon still doesnt go away from top taskbar when i turn wifi off. Since i unlocked this att phone an im using a tmobile sim card, do u think i should install the official tmobile windows mobile 6 for HTC phones? seems that this tmobile sim card is the culperate of making this wifi error, because when i take this sim out and place an old cingular sim in the phone it doesnt do this error. Wifi turns off when its suppose to and no icons hang around. If anybody has ever heard of this problem plz help...i dont want to go to the last resort of switching to WM 6.1 right now or something i like WM6

I will bet that you are not going to get help -
1. you use run on sentences that are VERY difficult to read
2. you do not specifically state your problem or goal
3. you state "that did not work" you do not QUOTE what you were trying so no one knows what THAT is (although I am suspecting that you ran the suggested cab file)
You need to:
1. use EXPLICIT SHORT sentences
2. engage the CARRIAGE RETURN KEY
3. enumerate your issues
4. tell us what you want to happen - we CANNOT guess what you have hosed up
5. Not an expert - so you will need someone else to tell you that this is true - but each company "brands the device and makes it so that the phone works with their system. If you are leaving AT&T and going with TMOBILE I suspect that you MAY need to flash to a ROM that works specifically with TMOBILE BUT
SPECIFICALLY STATE what you want - for example:
I have an HTC TILT - it was an AT&T phone and I want it to work on TMOBILE -
Currently - nothing works on the phone and here is what i have done.....
or
Currently everything works on the phone EXCEPT...
Just my opinion and I am going to quit responding to your message (which you may actually appreciate) as it is obvious that they have no effect.

dood whk im not in english class....im on an online forum trying to get help to fix my phone..get a clue or get a life cuz obviously u have nothing better to do but tell people to use punctuation when im obviously not worried about how i type in a freakin forum u jerkoff...and for have this thread up for a week and getting limited help on what i ACTUALLY NEED HELP ON MY ATT TILT AND WHY A TMOBILE SIM MAKES MY WIFI ICON NOT GO AWAY WHEN IM DONE WITH WIFI AND TRY TO TURN IT OFF..THE DATA STOPS BUT THE ICON DOESNT GO AWAY FROM THE TOP OF MY PHONE...IT JUST STOPS SEARCHING FOR SERVICE WHEN I PRESS THE WIFI OFF BUTTON...there, so i guess i need to use a new rom and flash a radio or wutever that is....that conection setup cab only put tmobile data in my conections. It did nothing to switch att defaults in the phone to tmobile, thnx anywayz guy who gave me that app....if anyone has had these issues with tmobile sims plz respond and not reply with english lessons
well no one is goin to read that type of garbage if its just one bigass blurb of words together...i'm with whk...and caps doesnt help either...maybe thats why no one wants to help u...and if u cant be bothered about the way u type...we cant be bothered to give u assistance ...just a headsup
well i solvd the problem myself by changing radios...thats all sommebody had to say..some of you arre a buncha idiots like whk....i didnt post this thread to get grammer lessons, i posted to get some damn help you morons so if u wana tell people how to type go to a fckin word proccessing forum u flamers
Good luck here in the forums, if you can't manage to follow something as basic as proper grammar and spelling, no one will bother reading what you have to say.
I for one, read MAYBE the first sentence in your posts apart from the last, and I'm certain I'm not alone.
and FYI, a better attitude will get you along ways here if you intend to stay. Your current attitude could likely result in a ban, and that causes issues when you need help.
dood....
You really need to read the links in my signature BEFORE you waste any more time on this forum.
I seriously suspect this is not the place for you as we actually expect you to have 3rd grade or better communications skills. Several members have attempted to help you but you don't seem to grasp simple concepts.
Thread closed as it is pointless. I would suggest you spend some time reading the forums if you really want to solve YOUR problems. The answers you seek can be found using search (and better language skills).
Thread closed due to rudeness!
moegdaog - consider this an official warning!
Please use polite language or you will be banned.
And in the future consider this simple fact:
No one can see your device so if you don't do your best to describe the problem no one can help you.
Also big chunks of continues text are hard to read and most people just give up.
Try to break up you posts in the future.
Hi,
I have just been to Belguim. During this time a new white triange icon was shown on the top bar. What is it for? Nothing happened when I clicked on it. After return, it disappeared.
Thanks
pretty sure it's the roaming icon.
Yeah that is the roaming icon, had it when I went to Cuba too.
how to disable that icon
anyone know how to disable that roaming icon because my operator carier being merge to another one and now that annoying icon always show on my screen even im not roaming
You need a new SIM card which is from your merged carrier.
i'm pretty sure theres a registry hack for that, but can't seem to find the thread right now... anyone?

Note that this is a workaround, and will disable the roaming icon even when you are actually roaming... just remember the bills
looks like thats the reg hack i need.. because there is no more roaming by my carrier in all over my country here,so i dont need that annoying white triangle anymore. But ill go to my CS carier first,hope they can do something. thx guys
