Hi all,
I have been using an T-Mobile MDA Vario III for 4 weeks no and quite happy with the device. But unfortunately I have a small issue with Opera Mobile 8.65 and the T-Mobile Speedmanager. Quite often, the requested web page is not shown but rather an empty screen with a single "<" on it. The url shows something like ww*.speed.t-mobile.de?...
However, as I am on UMTS most of the time I was wondering if their is a possibility to switch of this annoying speedmanager.
Has someone managed to do this? Might this be a setting somewhere in the regestry?
Cheers,
Stephan

Apologies to all in advance, who rightly groan when I ask this, but does anyone know if and when an official UK MDA III Rom update will be released by T-Mobile UK?
I am new to the network and have no idea how the support works. I have read through the forums and seen issues with upgrading the MDA III from another ROM (such as QTEK country ID issue for example). For an absolute novice like me (no technical background whatsoever) can anyone assist me.
The issues I have appear to be common ones and they are:
1 The microphone doesn't appear to carry voice effectively (although the speakerphone seems better for some odd reason) and
2 The bluetooth connection is temperamental and battery draining; to say the least.
All help appreciated. Please forgive my naivety as this is my first ever post - so be gentle.
Sorry, I don´t understand you at all, could you tell me if you have got a new T-mobile ROM for the MDA III that has an unlocked-SIM? If so, where could I get it? Thanks.
My post was regarding upgrading my existing ROM.
My MDA is unlocked as I requested a code from T-Mobile who provided it within 1 day.
Sorry I cannot help, as like you I am trying to find out where and how to upgrade.

Hope every one is well,
guys I am aiming this thread at UK T-mobile Vario III users, so please dont be offended and please dont hijack this thread
Now that out of the way, the thread concerns Blackberry connect from T-mobile and has anyone had any luck getting it working with the MDA vario III using a T-Mobile UK based sim card for corporate email,(not personal email, but email solution(work email))
I know some of us have got BBC to work with the kaiser, using software etc supplied by other companies/ parties (including myself)
But has any UK T-mobile mda vario III user got bb connect working downloading the official version of the software from http://updateservice.t-mobile.net/blackberry/download/folder.do
Thing is they do not have the MDA vario III listed on there devices section.
I have got BB connect working using BBC software supplied by HTC
Heres the link and follow the instructions take around 15-30 minutes for corporate email.
http://www.america.htc.com/connect/8925/
Issues that I have and reading through the forums seems to be affecting a lot of fellow users, is that using BB connect on the device really slows the device down and makes it sluggish! Ontop of that, Once I had done a corporate activation using BBC I could only receive emails from that point on, and any old emails that I had would not be visible in my inbox. To a point I thought it was not working at all, until I got an email and realised that yes, I can get emails via BES but not old emails prior to the setup.
Come to think of it that’s my BIGGEST gripe with this, the device sluggishness and email issue.
As for installing T-mobiles BBC software from there site, I downloaded MDA Vario II’s and installed this, Got it installed both on the device and the desktop, the device software registered and I had a PIN assigned, done the device config update via the desktop, but that’s as far as I got, It kept trying to connect > connecting> connected> data tunnel available > not connected<<
So it kept looping around.
The only thing I could think about is that BBC software I download from HTC/RIM allowed me to do a corporate activation (as am BES admin- I could set my own password etc) but the BBC software supplied from T-Mobile does not allow this,
Vario III users
Have any of you got your devices working with the t-mobile UK bbc and corporate account?
Guys please don’t hijack this thread and go off topic, I am really only after pointers on getting this working with a T-Mobile UK sum card with MDA Vario III using BES.
AS for anyone else after advice of getting BB connect working on there devices, there are so many threads and if none of them offer you what you are looking for start a thread of your own, and people like my self and others will try our upmost to support you. End of the day this a forum and posting threads is part of what the XDA-developers experience is all about.
I hate to post topics that might have been covered...but i've searched and searched until i got a headache and figured I'd just ask....
From what I understand, from a t-mobile representative I know, there is a download able patch for the wing that will allow you to use hotspot @ home (that is use your mobile phone and mobile phone number to place calls through ANY active wifi network you can connect to) and also one for the sidekick..which is irrelevant considering the platform...
Anyways, I have a wing and went to t-mobiles site and see nothing about downloading this fabled update but haven't found anything.
Long story short: does this exist, and if it does, has anyone tried messing with it (i.e. cooking something up) so it works for the MDA?
I love my MDA and the wing is really..well...the same thing, with a few new lame features.
I, too, have a T-Mobile MDA and REALLY want to use this service. I can't understand why I wouldn't be able to utilize the MDA's built in WiFi features with the service. Anyone done found any helpful hints since this thread was originally posted?
I understand this thread is old, but wanted to chip in and voice my curiosity for this as well.
I have the MDA and have been very happy with T-Mobile. But after moving to a new place recently, I have NO coverage inside my home.
The MDA is a very capable phone and I'm sure that [email protected] is usable on it with just a software installation. Although, does anybody have a clue as to how to make that happen?

The only WM phone that I'm aware of that can possibly be used with [email protected] is the Hp IPAQ 510 that has not been provosioned for AT&T.
There are two SKU's for this phone-one for AT&T, and one that is unlocked.
Hi guys…
Bit of a desperate first post!
Picked up a HTC Diamond Touch last week locked to Orange and unlocked it using Olinex’s solution on here…
Now, I’ve put my T-Mobile SIM and all is working fine… calls, mobile internet… everything…
Well, everything but SkyMobile TV…
The HTC Touch Diamond on Orange supports SkyMobile TV… and the equivalent phone, MDA Compact IV on T-Mobile also supports the SkyMobile TV app… put the T-Mobile SIM into the HTC Touch Diamond however and it’s a different issue! The website says it's not a compatible handset... go figure
From searching there’s about a post and a half from a year or so back now that just kind of died a death… the guy who responded mentioned changing the user agent in the Opera browser, but didn’t quite know what the correct user agent was, lol…
Now, I’m reluctant to flash (I’ll have to, right?) and install the T-Mobile ROM given the bloatware it comes with… but I’m really kind of eager to get Sky Mobile TV on the phone and make those commutes into work a little more bearable!
All help, greatly appreciated!
Problem solved for all those that care, lol...
Went into the opera:config screen and changed the browser user agent to a T-Mobile compatible one... used MDA Compact IV since that's the T-Mobile HTC Diamond equivalent
"Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 5.1; MDA_compact_IV/1.0 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1; U; en)"
I'd really like to know the answer as I've spent an hour or so looking and only found ambiguity.
Thanks.
Anyone ? Someone ?
Please ???
wrong section, vario IV is a rebranded touch pro.

i think it's this one, the raphael.
the T-mobile version of the diamond is called compact IV
