thats it im pissed

it seems that something is globally wrong with cingular. they tried using the same sales tactic on me when i bought my 8125. i told em i did not want the data plan because i was only gonna use wifi and they told me i was gonna get a 400 dollar bill for data usage. i laughed, and got my 8125. i use wifi and have no data plan. i even called cingular and had them remove the internet feature from the account. i use wifi everyday THERE IS NO CHARGE. i spoke to one rep over the phone that when i told him what i had been told at the retail store he cracked up. he told me that the closest thing that the rep probably ment was that if you use wifi and you loose connection IE automatically connects to GPRs thus charging you.

even worse my friend thought he had a deal because the sales guy at the store told him that if he got the data plan he would give him a 20 dollar discount on the media net. wtf...

Re: thats it im pissed

lol @ your post... but for the quoted part one could think that the salesman meant he was going to add MEdiaNet($20) insted of PDA connect thus really saving him some money?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] holmanm:
I think thats the problem. He is turning on Wifi with no wireless router around, but thinks since he turned on Wifi that he is using Wifi, so he is still using GPRS and getting billed accordingly. Not a smart guy.

Let's start the bets :-)

Twenty Mexican Pesos say that Tweker will either

A) Return his stupid 8125 to avoid paying for wifi, or

B) He will just create another account here and keep lurking, waiting for the right moment to speew some other pearl of wisdom on us...

Any takers?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] newbie2:
Re: Let's start the bets :-)

Considering his adamance about the WiFi issue, I'm going with "B". I don't think we've heard the last of HIM yet, but I DO think we've heard the last of TWEKER. :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Funky B:
Like other posters, a Cingular employee also told me that they charge for all data transfered including wifi. That same employee owned an 8125 (he pulled it out of his pocket). I did not get the data plan because I don't need it and I understand how the phone works. Cingular employees probably make a larger commission from the data plan, but it sucks that they prey on people like tweker for personal gain.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PiTT:
ROFL, LMAO..........on a more serious note, he is right guys, you do get charged for wifi. ive had my k-jam on cingular since november 05 and i use wifi all the time and cingular charges me peanut butter cookies every month for every 1/kb....ill prove it, it even shows on my bill, im just as ticked off about as the next guy, but what can you do?

PS. as projectile noted, guys please do not judge us americans based on this guy or our president, they are both idiots, the rest of us aren't, i swear......ok 80% of our pro-athletes are stupid too, and so are our congressmen, and....ok you get the point...

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] TheGadgetGuy:
The funny thing is, even after all the explanations everyone has given, Tweaker still probably doesn't believe any of you!

Here's a foolproof way for him to verify what everyone has been saying:

Tweaker. Take the battery cover off your phone, remove the battery, then TAKE OUT YOUR SIM CHIP.

Now, turn the 8125 back on, and try to make a phone call. NOTICE THAT IT WON'T WORK. Without the SIM chip, the 'phone' portion of your 8125 won't work.

Now, Turn on Wifi, and connect to your home router. Guess what?? Oh My GOD!!! The internet is working on your phone!!! Even more amazing: IT'S TOTALLY FREE!!!

The bottom line is this: When you are using 802.11b/g (commonly known as WiFi), this function is not controlled, regulated, or charged by Cingular. It's just the same as you connecting your laptop up to an access point.

Now that your little experiment was a success, you can feel free to put your SIM chip back in.

When you are not using a WiFi access point, any Internet access is via CINGULAR'S GPRS/EDGE network. Notice that I said it was 'Cingular's Network'. Since this is their network, they charge people for using it. If you don't want to use their GPRS/EDGE network, just don't do it. Your phone will only be able to browse internet sites when you are connected via WiFi or USB to your computer.

Hope this clears things up for you. While I understand your initial confusion, you should understand that this board has been in existance for several years now, and a good deal of its members have been participating for just as long. (myself included).

Good luck to 'ya.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mengesb:
I think Tweaker, or his newly registered name - who dare not posts because he'll get so toasted by numerous users, should simply return his highly advanced device for a regular phone.

Problem: PSTC error / ID : 10t error

Take your pick. IMHO I think that you should go with something like a Samsung X497, or Nokia 6010. These devices will never charge you for wifi, and you should specify to Cingular that you want to disable MEdia.Net access to your phone. There are some lovily forums over at Cingular that you can ask your questions further, but please, you're distracting us and its starting to rather annoy me. Those here who've seen my posts know, that even without being a kind prick, I can flame the best - I don't want to see you go down in a ball of fire because honestly, you've been beaten up enough here. Take the lickin', and just move on - Return your device, get a good phone that's only a phone, and move on with your life.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DanITman:
Not to defend this guy but I think I might know where he is getting confused.

If your on WiFi and you attempt to access something through the Cingular Proxy it will dial up the GRPS and then in turn charge you money.

Am I correct in saying this?

I have noticed it a few times while surfing on wifi and I'm not sure if its because I'm trying to access the MediaNet information or if my phone is trying to keep its HTTP tunnel open with my Exchange server.

This might be where he is getting confused. Just make sure you don't have proxy information on your 8125 and you should be all set.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] panthar:
That is definitely possible. I found a good way to solve my data issues, too. I never migrated from my old ATT Blue plan, so I have unlimited mMode for $25/month. No proxy restrictions or anything. That's not much more than dialup and I can pretty much always stream 64k-96k mp3's. Sill little orage guy isn't gonna get $45/month from me!

I wanna see twekers phone bill.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
Tweker reminds me of my ex-inlaws.

10 years ago I discovered that my (then) wife's parents were paying rental fees to the phone company for 2 very old (circa 1975) rotary dial phones. If I remember correctly they were paying about $2.50 per month per phone.

They had these phones ever since Ma Bell was broken-up! The ex-mother-in-law had no idea that they were paying for the use of the phones and got very confused when I explained that she could go to the store and buy two better phones for the cost of one of the quarterly bills she was already paying.

I ended up buying her replacement phones and arranging to ship the rentals back to the phone company.

For the next two years she was worried that she would receive a quarterly bill for the new phones that I had purchased.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] bluetoothless:
I don't understand all this talk about using Lokiwiz to unlock the 8125. I just tap the unlock link on the screen and it says the device is unlocked. If I'm worried about voiding my warranty I just tap the link again and it says device locked! that's why you can't flash the rom when it says device locked you morons!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] thebombs12:
of course to prevent this from happening he can opt to block data access on his plan or just delete the GPRS connection entry for cingular on his pda.

Very funny thread. I guess he realized he was being stupid and decided not to come back. LOL. The CSR told him wifi cost money. Yeah, it does if you access Cingulars service. If you access a wifi connection such as the one in your home, no charge. I bet the Cingular CSR didnt even know you could do that. Seems the people that work in cell phone stores know less than most customers.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] 100Tbps:
@bluetoothless: you're close, but that's not the CID lock / unlock. You found the KID lock / unlock.

If you want to CID unlock your phone, it must be done at night when the NOC folks at the GSM carrier aren't sniffing the 802.11g packets. It unfortunately has nothing to do with KID locking the phone.

Alternatively, if you can find the tertiary rotator in the flippingrid behind the battery, you can cover it with silk to keep the carrier from detecting your hacking. This allows you to hack during regular business hours. In fact, this is precisely why there are no Cingular stores located adjacent to Victoria's Secret stores in US malls. They intentionally make it harder for you to hack the phone.

I have no idea why this isn't in the wiki.

Is cingular screwing with wifi????

After seeing this thread for several days I decided to post. I agree wifi is FREE heck ive been using it with my 8125 pulling 2-3mb on my wireless router by tweaking it to g and overclocking to 240. It has been great. I recently decided to upgrade to summiters new rom and so far its great. the only thing I so far have a problem with is WIFI, it keeps using Edge no matter what settings I use I looked at the Cingular site and it shows wifi setting up as using GPRS. I started searching around and found this http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=56197 post which seems to confirm Cingular or HTC has done something to WIFI forcing you to use GPRS and hence forcing you to pay. Luckily I have a unlimited medianet so it does not cost more but 235kbs compared to 2-3mb in speed is a big difference. I hope I can or someone else figure this out or I will downgade back to get

MY WIFI

back. :evil: :evil: :evil: Someone please tell me I am crazy and just screwed up a setting somewhere. Does anyone else who use wifi on a 2.xx rom have the same trouble??? I'm wondering if TWEKER may actually be right about the new 2.xx roms I sure hope he's wrong.

Re: Is cingular screwing with wifi????

Well after trying & trying I redownload Summiter's rom and reinstalled it on this 8125. Before I reinstalled any programs I played w/ wifi and got to WORK finally then I reinstalled all needed software. WIFI is slower at 1.5MB compared to usually 2.5MB I have compared to my second (work's) 8125. I can live it it for now. So TWEKER WIFI works and is still FREE. Now the question is if should upgrade my second 8125 since technically it is a "work" phone. By the way this post is done by from my 8125 via my FREE WIFI.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] audia4dude:
I wish 8125 had the ability to do a tracert out to the internet while having the phone in flight mode and wireless turned on. You'll notice your gateway right away is your own ISP and not Cingular dumba$$!

How about check your ip address in wireless settings. Is it a private IP address that your own router is handing off to you? YES IT IS!. And where does the data go from there? TO YOUR CABLE OR DSL MODEM, and how does it route from there? Across your ISP's network, NOT CINGULAR.

im done =)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hitechcowboy:
To think that WiFi is costly is insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The CSRs at Cingular told me the same thing, they sent me to their "experts" and the still did not know what they were talking about. Until one of them told me they have no "notes" on their computers about the subject of WiFi.

They are props with a bunch of letters on their screen half the time. They have some good people working for them, but most of the time they have no idea what they say.

WiFi is not a chargable way to communicate.

What a dumbass. i can't believe he'd actually believe in those stupid cingular reps. somebody look up his name in the search area to see if he ever posted recently. also, i have no clue why he would want to go to cingular's bull**** service anyway. their service is crap. never fall for their dumbass slogan of having the least dropped calls. that is just total bull****. No offense to those who work or use the cingular network, although i do like the look of the 8125 than the mda. but their service is crap 24/7. so tweker, get your wifi facts straight, then switch to t-mobile.

I did contact the seller and she is trying to contact the person she bought the phone from. I am awaiting her email.

If she cant get the previous owner to release the phone, I will contact ebay to gt my money back.

Been on Mahdi forever on my VS980 and wanted to try the new KK so I tried to use TitaniumBackup and it says that I don't have root.

I tried to flash the latest SuperSu in recovery and it didn't work.

What else can it be?

i can get into recovery fine.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elite001mm:
Lost root..

So, if you havent already done it, first make sure root is enabled at all in developer options (it can be disabled).. if it is enabled, and you still dont have root. Back your stuff up with titanium backup or the like. Wipe/clean flash the rom/gapps/superSu. If that doesn't fix it, it is a problem with the rom file itself
