Easiest way is to call your provider for settings. My provider just emailed them all to me so I can set them up whenever needed.

I have t mobile usa, I will call in a few mins, hope they can help, bacause last time i called and I had a p910, they had no clue what I was talking about.

lol! I know what you mean... they should have a technical department for support with more advanced handsets like the Universal, just ask for them. If not, I'm sure there will be another TMobile USA user somewhere in the forum who can give you theirs. Good luck, keep us posted.
P.S... it may be worth giving Jwrightmcps a private message as he seems to know a lot of the providers settings, just a thought.

So, to be clear, I should tell t mobile that I have a mda pro, not an o2 exec, in essence they are the same unit correct?

Yes, same unit, different branding in different countries. Original model name is the HTC Universal. Hope fallenczar can help you out earlier though

I'm on the phone right now with tmobile usa and they are telling me that I will need the 29.99 plan to actually get on the net, as when as of yesterday I was still getting internet with my regular plan of 5.99. Also that mda pro does not support t zones, but mines did before the upgrade, also that by march 1st this year in NYC, not even my p910 will work with t zones, they will need the 30$ a month plan. Now this is ridiculous.

If you ask me, they're trying their best to get you on the $30 plan by any means... and it's a load of B$! Might be worth asking the reasons why it wouldn't work on t zones (and is that public wireless access or GPRS connection?).
I know US doesn't support 3G/UMTS2100, but that has nothing to do with GPRS...
Editted*** just came accross this thread, take a look!!!

Ok, super officialy tmobile costumer service is the worst, I have tried myself all the settings I could scrounge up myself, please, someone dig me out this hole...lol. Is that if I cant get online with my o2, then is a huge part of it that I cant use, and its really vital. But on a good note, I can get online on my p910, so that atleast is happening.....HEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!

T-Mobile Internet settings
Hi,
I'm from Holland as you can see, but the settings must be the same isn't?
Start/Settings/Connections/Conections/ 'Add a new modem Connection'
Name for the connection: T-Mobile
Select a modem: Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
Acces point name: Internet
User name: t-mobile
Password: t-mobile
Finish.
Maybe this works!
Greetings, Leo

here you go

Thanks, now for the ignorant question before I attempt, how do I properly install the cab file, and where. Thanks in advance, and for everyone who is also trying to help.

Just copy the CAB onto your unit somewhere (anywhere, just so long as it's on the phone's memory or the SD card), then just go to it via explorer and click on it to open. Installer will do the rest. If asked where you want to install, select the device. And that will hopefully be problem solved woo hoo

The set up file is in XML format, and when I do the above it just opens in IE in HTML code, nothing else happens. What am I doing wrong?

Ok, I got that I needed to put the RAR file without extracting on to it and run it, I did, and got a CAB was unsucessful to install.

do you have any program in the extended rom to install the operator settings...
anyhow
soft reset and try again...try installing from the main memory...
if that dosent work try downloading again....also try this files that i have attached....put both the settings and the file in the extended rom..and run this file...the rest should be obvious

It says customization tool cannot be installed, thats what it actually says. Now, Since I am new to this, where on my device do I find the extended rom?

btw, this is the rom i used to update to wm6....
XDA_Exec_WWE_20108_20301_11300_wwe_ship

put the two files i provided you in a folder and run the exe file....
or read this....at the bottom of the page you will find the settings...

CECT W800

Helooo!
this is actualy my first post though I have been lurking for ages
proud owner of a HTC Wizard about to upgrade to the XDA orbit but thats not my question
recently came across this
http://cgi.ebay.com/CECT-W800-Touch...ryZ64355QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Looks like an Artamis but its it, another CECT clone of the orbit with no wifi but with built in GPS running WM5
anyone actualy bought one? I wonder if it could be upgraded in some way with a custom ROM to WM6?
not too botherd as going to get the Artamis anyway but may be intrested in buying it to experiment

same thought...
but still no answer found

Hi All,
This is my first time on here i've just got the CECT W800 as a christmas present and so far very happy with it. The onboard tomtom GPS works very well and it came with complete car kit and two batteries all for £138 inc postage from China. I've recently found out its a clone of the MDA Compact III, does anyone know of any other issues with this phone?
It came sim unlocked for any network and i put my virgin sim card in and it found all the correct setting for GPRS and MMS automatically.
Can anyone tell me if any of the iphone lookalike programs and skins would work with this phone pls?
Thanks Mick.

Have You eny problems with w800:
- with sms receive ?
- gsm module working after softreset ?
link:topic

"Can anyone tell me if any of the iphone lookalike programs and skins would work with this phone pls?"
those programs and skins are generaly made for windows mobile and will generaly run on all devices which run windows mobile

Does the w800 have EDGE or just GPRS data? I'm looking in to getting one shortly and I won't even bother if it only has a GPRS radio.
How's the build quality and camera? Decent?

It's only gprs. Camera - phone quality
W800 hasn't any manufacturer support and has many bugs

what a shame... i could get past the bugs since SOMEONE's firmware ought to load on it but if the data is GPRS only, forget about it... too bad about it, the only other phone that I've seen that has built in GPS and doesn't cost an arm and a leg is the Pharos PTL600 for USD $469 with a $50 rebate. That's an ETEN rebrand, I believe.
the CECT w800 sounds (in theory) like a great device, is there a support website for it or does it just come out of a warehouse in Taiwan and that's it? I know CECT makes that knockoff iPhone that everyone has up on Ebay so they should be a fairly major company with at least a website.

I found cectelecom.com and qxmc.com as the Chinese and English webpages for CECT. Oddly enough, they don't list either this knockoff or the iPhone knockoff they sell. I'm going to shoot them an email and ask about the W800.

look this thread

Hi,
I have the CECT W800 and i'm very pleased with it. It comes with tomtom satnav which is very good and 1gig memory card. Try these websites www.cectstore.com and www.sourcinggate.com for more info.
Thanks Mick

GPS
Hi All,
Can someone answer does GPS navigation works without connecting external gps antenna.
I'm planning to buy one but i read that you must connect external antenna to have signal in navigation software.
BR

Hi,
Mine works without the external airel but it may take a bit longer to find a signal without it than it does with it, usually a couple of minutes. Where do you live? I'm in the UK and got the phone for xmas and very happy with it, if you need to know anything else about this phone let me know aand i'll try help.

I have this w800 and never used it. It came with its core language in Italian, a language I neither read or understand.
Is there anyone out there with an English rom for this damned thing.
Cheers all.

hi Lekkie,
Where did you get it from? I got mine from china via ebay and came in English, tomtom satnav was in chinese but changed it in the tomtom settings. I don't how you can get the rest of it in English maybe someone on here can help. I'll look through mine see if theres any language settings on it. Did you get a user manual with it? I got English version on CD rom i could send you file if you want, let me know.
Mick.

Hi guys,
Yes, got it through Ebay from some little chinese fella who has no idea about sending a phone with the right language for the country its being used in, its driving me crazy this damned thing.
I did get the manual, yes. That at least is in english, its the phone thats in italian.

Is there a way i could take a copy of the rom off mine and either send it to you by email or post it on here as mine is in English?

help!!
I set a pass code so it would lock and the pass code just quit working one morning anyone know a way to fix this?

I guess if you have a Touch Cruise, and not a UK O2 branded XDA you'll have to go to the HTC site

That is correct, the HTC branded devices have different firmware to the o2 branded devices. You can obtain that from the HTC website.

Orbit 2 WM6.1 ROM
Loaded it today!
A couple of nice tweaks but I still feel the os needs a major revamp which will hopefully come with WM7.0.
I'm not a big stylus user and a couple of things really bug me, especially the silly little 'x' to close windows in the top right of the screen.
Whenever I'm in the Comms Manager and want to close the thing I seem to keep turning on 'airplane mode' rather than hitting the 'x' button because they're so close to each other!
I still think the device is the best out there though.

just wondering if anyone else has found this problem at som points my orbit will freeze and then start reacting like 10 seconds later.
This is the only problem i have yet to find/annoy me with the rom so far so quite happy, even more happy by the speed increase over the original rom

Hi, i downloaded the rom update, from O2 was wondering if gps and tomtom work fine still, and also with igo 8, i dont wanna flash it and find my gps wont work, thanks peeps.

I have updated to 6.1 and all appears OK, in fact I havn't noticed any major diffirence. For info I have both TomTom and CoPilot working OK.
I am no expert on this ROM upgrading lark, but it took me hours to get my Orbit back to its previous state with the installation and configuration of various apps.
Do those brave guys who are constantly changing their ROMS have to go through hours of re-configuration each time or is there an easy way??
A

is that with your internal gps, i have not got a clue myself about this stuff, you dont unplug anything while its doing it do you.

Battery life seems much improved. Also, the QuickGPS util works very well and a lock can be had in seconds rather than minutes.
One funny - my Direct Push email would not work correctly after the initial upgrade. I could download all my content but the device refused to stay in sync requiring a send/receive to empty the Outbox. No amount of deleting/recreating the Exchange partnership helped. In the end I chose "Clear Storage" and did it all again from scratch. That did the trick....

From my other thread in the sub forum...
Hello!
I'm trying to upgrade my orbit 2 from wm6 to 6.1 using the official patch on the 02 website. When I enter in my serial number I get the download link with some instructions.
One such instruction is...
"Please note that if you already have CoPilot satellite navigation software on your Xda, read this installation manual (links to PDF) before upgrading to Windows Mobile 6.1"
The PDF talks about upgrading from wm5 to wm6 with co pilot 6 installed. Now im upgrading from 6 to 6.1 with copilot 7 installed
Do I still need to follow the guide? or can I just install the upgrade without touching the copilot 7?
I dont want to lose the use of the co pilot software by not deactivating it prior to the upgrade.
I tried calling o2 but they were useless.
Cheers

just reactivate it as you did the first time round @orbit2user123z

Windows 6.1 for O2 Xda Orbit 2 - and the features are?
Now this upgrade is available what do we O2 users get in terms of features? The HTC version on their site details some minot tweaks but not enough to want me to install the upgrade, can anyone give us a definite list of features in O2's new ROM?

I've got it all working now - cheers Madheadwil

Before i found this thread i thought my Orbit 2 was faulty, i could not get any roms to install onto my device but now YESSS!, thank you

That would be really helpful. I don't want to waste a couple of evenings reinstalling and reconfiguring all my applications if 6.1 doesn't do a lot more than 6.0 (or the things which have changed are things which I wouldn't use). Anybody know?

Hello I'm New, I Need Advice For My HTC Tilt 2

Hello everyone.
I have a lot of questions and a whole lot to learn? I have been browsing this web site for a few days now. I see a lot of information but I’m not sure where to start!
I just bought a new at&t HTC Tilt 2. So far it has been a love hate relationship. Previously I owned a Blackberry Storm 9500 that I was using on at&t for two years, my Storm finally died. So I thought that I would do something new! I had no problems with tweaking and updating my Storm with the latest leaked OS or mixing up my own OS with different leaks. That being said I’m not afraid to explore.
I really want to unlock the HTC and I also want more functionality then what I have with the HTC Tilt 2 right now. I have a unlock code from at&t but I could not unlock it because it requires a SIM card for another carrier. I was told I have only 5 attempts before locking up the phone. I travel internationally and need to have my phone unlocked. The last time I was in Nigeria my Blackberry ESN was blocked by at&t and it took two weeks for at&t to figure out what happened on their side, and fix my phone. I do not want to relive that again. As a note, I did try unlocking the phone without the SIM card and it did not work.
I would like a better email application that ACTUALY works! So far I have had to reset my Yahoo account settings three times already. It appears to work for a day or two then it loses everything and stops receiving my emails. Besides the fact that the email wants to search all 13000 emails I have on the yahoo email server. (Yes that’s a lot of email but I have my reasons) Then the device wants to download everything instead of only the last 7 days and only what is new! I am not impressed with the IMAPI setup and the POP3 settings in WM 6.5. So I want to know what software and ROMS I need to use and if all fails how to restore the HTC back to its original factory settings. I know that there has to be more potential with the Tilt 2 then what I am currently seeing? So any guidance would be appreciated….

Suggestions: What to do with a broken digitizer Raphael phone

Hi,
I need your suggestions. I have a T Mobile MDA Vario IV whose digitizer has given up on me. It basically doesnt register the correct input and sometimes it doesnt register anything at all. I have tried all the possible software tricks on it, to no avail.
The phone gave up on me after the first time I installed WM6.5 from NRG.
I cant replace the hardware as it is not available locally in Riyadh and any other way would be too expensive.
So now, I still want to make use of this phone which I used for hardly 3 months. Any suggestions other than using to assault HTC engineers.
