Not sure if you guys have seen this yet or not, but you can access the field test menu on the HD7 by dialing:
##3282#
This was confirmed on my retail T-Mobile HD7 (US). This menu is not of much use to me, as it isn't the MFG menu or anything, but someone might find it enlightening. I cannot claim credit for this; saw it on a random post referenced to the Dell Venue somewhere, though it is actually for the HTC HD7.

Hey guys on my 6800 when dialing a number it says what state the area code is, how can i get this feature on my Tilt?? thank you
and is it possible to have it while calling in?? thanks
I think that's just a Sprint feature.
I used to have it on my cell phone with Sprint, and you say you have it on your Mogul now. I've had Windows Mobile phones on T-Mobile and now AT&T, and neither has it.
Someone correct me if you've ever seen the state name displayed next to a phone number on the screen of any phone other than Sprint.
Yeah almost all my sprint phones had that feature, damnit i find it rather usefull sometimes when i refuse to answer a call and find out who it can possibly be.. Well if anyone knows how to get this on our phones, i know they have it for the mogul, so it must be somewhere in the rom...
Sometimes I am amazed at the lack of applications for WM5/WM6 versus the Palm. I had a Treo before the Tilt and no matter what, there seemed to be a program for everything, including AreaCodes. When I cam to Windows, I assumed there would be 1,000's more, but it is simply not true!
Sorry for that......
You would think it would be pretty simple... just have the phone display the state name matched from a list of all the area codes and their states...
Maybe someone can cook a cab? I would if i know how to do it
Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and new to wm smartphones as well.
I have an Alltel Touch Diamond which was given to me and I recently activated it on PagePlus. Voice and text work fine but I cannot get the data to work. Do I need to flash this phone to full Verizon firmware or is it likely a setting that is wrong on the phone? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I have the exact same problem
Voice and text are both working - however, I'd love to get the data going (and GPS if at all possible). Thanks in advance for any assistance...
what apn are you useing?
HTC Touch Pro on Page Plus
I have the same problem as well.
The only solution I have found is to have the phone "flashed" and the internet will work.
One company that shows up everywhere online is http://winscommunications.com/
I did speak with a guy there and he said he would charge $25 to "flash" my HTC Touch Pro so I would have internet access as well. You pay to ship it to them and include a prepaid return shipping label as well.
I have unlocked and Jailbroke iPhones and others myself so I was hoping someone would have the links to the software used in the "flash" process.
Otherwise I guess I will have to give the $25 to these guys.
Anyone else have some help for me?
Can anyone shed some light on this and point some noobs in the right direction?
Hi
i own a htc touch diamond, which is the SPRINT VERSION, and
need to activate it with page plus for my MOM.
for what i understand both networks are CDMA so it should
work, right?
if that's the case, what's the best and cheapest way to go to activate it?
but first a little story:
i tried to go to with a multi-carrier cell phone location, but the guy tried to screw me
promissing to activate it this was the deal with the guy:
80 DOLLARS up front, 40 to activate and credit starter, and
another 40 for "transfer the ESN from an old forgotten page plus
non-smart phone" which i found very strange... so i said
NO DEAL, BYE.
--
anyways, i need the phone to be PREPAID and i only want to
start with 10 dollars of credit to give it a try
if you know other prepaid CDMA service provider with GOOD rates per
minute i would like to know
please guide me
THANKS in ADVANCE !!
not going to be trivial, but may be possible... you will definitely first need the phone's MSL (lock code). And it is possible that you'll not be able to get data or MMS working. You'll have to manually program the phone... Go to www.howardforums.com and look in the PagePlus forum for more details...
It would be far easier to sell off this phone and get a Verizon phone of some sort instead, since PP is a Verizon MVNO...
It can be done, I did the same. I followed a tutorial I found somewhere, but can't remember where. Look around. Def need the MSL, that was the hardest thing for me to find.
i did the same thing years ago. i can sure that it can be done. but now my diamond is dead due to unknown reason .
anyway, try search ppcgeeks, i remember someone give me a radio prl for page plus. just run it , and the *288 can activated your phone.
sorry i didn't have the file u need.
the file u need is called Verizon Prepaid EVDO PRL 51214 Modified (01-13-09)
Hi, I'm new here. *waves*
I'm trying to unlock my HTC Touch Diamond on Bell Mobility in Canada and I've run into a couple questions.
1. How do I tell if my phone is CDMA or GSM?
I know for a FACT it doesn't have a sim card (which I believe is the defining factor between the two)... but for some reason the search results I've been getting just fail to clarify whether or not Bell Canada is GSM or CDMA. I believe they went GSM in 2010 but since my phone is pre-2010 I'm not entirely sure.
2. Is my phone even really a Diamond?
For a while I was wondering if my phone was actually a victor p3702, (I know... same $#!+ different pile, right?) but in the images I got from Google I became VERY confused as my phone has a 3.2mp camera and the flat backing, and has that subtle slight curve to the bottom of the screen and says Touch Diamond when I boot it up. All the images I can find are of phones with a 3.1mp camera.
3. Do I even need to do this?
All I want to do is get custom ROMS for the phone. I heard in my internet travels that for a CDMA phone you don't need to unlock for new ROMs... just roaming and all that jazz.
4. WTF!?
Apparently the only unlocker for CDMA diamonds in existance is on the PPCGeeks site, but it gives me a damn 502 every time I go to check it out. Are there any others out there?
Hi Guys, i need your help i bought a samsung focus s and it is still stuck on demo mode,does anyone know how to take it off demo mode. I've tried holding the camera button,lower volume an power button together but it hasn't made a difference. And i went to the about option and theres no option to reset factory settings. I've even emailed samsung and they told me to contact windows as it is their software. This is really frustrating, because the guy who sold me the phone well he doesn't know what to say they only had the one, I had read (You should return the phone because it seems you have bought a demo device and not a retail device, also another person said, I'm sorry to say that demo devices are loaded with different software from retail devices, so it will not be possible to get the device into a 'normal' mode unless you have the technical skills to flash the 'phone with a fresh ROM (see xda-developers.com). I wouldn't normally suggest this, but it sounds as if your vendor may have (perhaps conveniently for them) disappeared from the picture. Note that if you do flash the handset you must be prepared to lose all support from Microsoft, the 'phone manufacturer, and your carrier. In particular you will get no support here on Microsoft Community) and thats ok I'm with the prepaid thing anyway...Any Help is Good help
Thank You

sorry to say my friend but your probably out of luck, there is no ROM for us to flash, official or otherwise, we have no modified boot loader to make our own ROMs and there isn't any update cabs to update you to the correct ROM.
the only thing that I can think of is perhaps some registry entry that can be changed, but you would need to dump your reg and email it over.
but to be clear, I don't know of anyone getting them working, its proabably the same device being passed about, if you got it through ebay I would raise complaint if your unable to speak to the original seller
note that even if you can change the device in to a retail device with the use of a reg entry, you still cant change the ROM version so cant update it
