about flat

yes but anyway, my bill is 19th of november so i cant change anyway before that date.

i did sign up for Dual Packet teigaku .

and i have the advertisment here in my hands.

for the normal DPT almost all mobiles are eliable

for teh PC site Browser only 910T, 811SH, 810SH are listed.

PC site direct only the X01HT is listed.

and in the fine print there is one thing listed which did confuse me first.

it is stated that the build in POP3 email program of the 6680 is not eliable for the flat.

i thought this means the X01HT is not allowed to do so, but the meaning is that the 6680 which uses the 3900yen flat is not allowed to use POP3 as that plan excludes pop3.

in the explanation for the X01HT it is cleary written that PCmails and Internet is fully flat at a max. rate of 5700yen (9800yen)

so from my understanding it should be possible to use any 3G handset with any browser with the OPEN SB acess points which surprises me a bit.

i thought that Softbank would do a User Agent check to let handsets other than the X01HT not go online through Open Sb.

but :D good they are not doing that check .

now i would like to check if i can acess the X01HT my softbank page, if anybody is kind enought to post that link for me.

thank you for you help.

you don't need to change your plan, then. they simply changed the name of the discount from dual packet discount to "Unlimited Packet Use Discount."

you can use the open softbank for the flat rate, already. call 157 to make sure if you are worried;-)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
actually, there is a tunnel;-) it's not like you cannot use pocket msn with open softbank. open softbank simply blocks msn passport authentication process. once you are authenticated via wifi or another internet connection like vodafone@connect, your authentication is valid for certain hours (24 hrs?) and you can actually use pocket msn with open softbank;-)

agile and icq

well with agile ICQ is working if you un-click the setting : secure connection.

so icq didnt work first because it tried to connect via secure connection.

so , with the flat WEB, ICQ, POP , push mail seems to work.

better :eek: than expected.

Is making this new MMS connection going to take you out of Dual Packet Teigaku since you are no longer connected to open softbank? I see that you are making the network think you are a V802SE... so maybe not? Also, before I bother to install/try this out - does your MMS address to the world just end up being your phone number@softbank.ne.jp or can you access S! Live services to change it to something more interesting?

Also worth noting is that Bic Camera got in X01HT sized privacy seals. It makes the touch screen a tad bit less responsive, so I might switch to a not privacy version when clear seals are released.

Progress

Making some slow progress on this device. I installed a new SSL certificate with a proper common name/FQDN, and syncing through USB works perfectly.

However when I try to sync through the GPRS connection, it sits on "Synchronizing folders", then "Looking for Changes" and finally after a few minutes of doing nothing, it just gives up and goes back to "Waiting for network".

Has anyone encountered this? Its driving me nuts. Any ideas?

How do you use the MMS Composer software? I have not unlocked/flash the X01HT, so I am using stock softbank ROM; however, everytime I install the software, there doesn't seem to be a program icon visible in my programs. I do get MMS Settings when I hit menu in Pocket Outlook.

What's up? How do I use this software?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ashikase:
In Pocket Outlook, was an MMS account automatically created for you?

If not, and you are unable to manually create a new account with MMS as the server type (as opposed to POP3 and IMAP), try installing MMS Composer immediately after a hard reset - that was the only way I was able to get it to install properly.

Open Softback Connection

I have successfully converted to English OS -- thanks everyone for the tips here! The steps are well documented. As a newbie, I am able to follow and learned quite a lot along the way.

I am able to use Internet Explorer and it connects automatically displaying this message:

Connecting to: Softbank

Connecting 3G, GPRS....

Is this the so-called Open Softbank connection?

If not, I gathered the following manual setup in this thread

Open Softbank

APN：open.softbank.ne.jp

ID：open

PASSWD：o z R t 8 n 2 9 R a 1 P s d 0 7 (remove space)

Do I define this in Settings -> Connections under "Internet" or "My Work Network"?

Regarding the data packet fees, I know qtotter has answered these queries multiple times but I would like to confirm which situations or connections are NOT covered by the Unlimited Data Packet Plan?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
well, i hope you know this discount does NOT apply to internet use overseas by roaming...

i think i have, and do not want to become a sb customer service here. i don't want to post duplicated info again, either.

i have already received my first bill, and everything was free except the initial handling charge.

i used the connection for skype, pocket msn, pop3 email, web surfing by netfront w/o proxy setting, spb wheather, etc. everything was covered by the new discount.

yes

if you have "softbank" connection created by ext rom cab, you don't need to create another one yourself. if you did not use ext rom cabs, you need to create it yourself under "internet" not under "my work network."

Can anyone tell me whether the reason one cannot burn a rom from a different company onto a hermes is because of the bootloader version or because of the CID lock?

(please don't say both. i am particularly asking about two scenarios, v1.06&cid-locked and v1.06&cid-unlocked.)

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SimUnlock

i thought pof's method left a device temporarily CID unlocked so that one can burn any rom at least once...?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Because of the CID. The rom you flash must match your CID.

but... v1.04 has a bug where you can bypass CID-checking.

v1.06&cid-locked --> cannot be upgraded to a rom with diferent cid

v1.06&cid-unlocked --> can be upgraded to everything

v1.04&cid-locked --> can be upgraded to everything

v1.04&cid-unlocked --> can be upgraded to everithing

That's correct, it is CID-unlocked until you flash a rom, then it is reverted to your original CID. however, you can flash the patched radio again to CID-unlock it. Hopefully after this weekend I will provide a second version of the unlocker which will make SuperCID sticky after flashing new ROMs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
thanks for your clear answer, pof.

i saw some messages around the net about downgrading bootloader for unlocking or burning a rom from another company.

i read the wiki unlocking guide, and wondered why so many people wanted to downgrade their bootloader only to burn a rom unless you want to try many different roms.

many seem to be confused about downgrading bootloader.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] jello_e:

forget this post, i answered my own question... i fixed it myself... you just have to go back to mms configuration after the soft reset and re-enter the config...

it seems the other settings revert to default after the soft reset....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
was it simply that the setting was in the cache and you did soft reset before the device save the cache into the memory?

after you set up mms, switch off the device and do soft reset again. this should work. at least, the setting was not reverted on my x01ht when i tried mms on it.

Sling box and using the X01ht as a Modem in Japan

I am not sure if softbank in Japan has loosened up some of the restrictions but my phone is working with my Sling box streaming TV.

The only thing I had to do is change a setting in the slingbox to set it on port 80.

It worked so good I mounted my phone on the dashboard in the car so I can watch cable TV in the car. However the screen needs to be a little larger to actually enjoy it in the car.

Also, today for the first time I was able to get it to work as a USB modem for my Note book.

I am only averaging 100kbPS but at least it works.

x01ht bluetooth modem

Can anyone confirm that you can use the x01ht as a bluetooth modem to connect a laptop to the internet?

I see some posts about a Wireless Modem app you can get from one of the other ROMs but I'd like a clear confirmation that it works, if anyone has got it working.

I really want to get one and this would be my last requirement to push me over the edge :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
i meant to say;

1) everything (all internet access via the open softbank connection) was included in this new flat rate discount.

2) the first charge was zero yen including the monthly base fee and the packet charge excluding the one-time-only initial handling fee since it was a new contract. the second bill will be free as well, and i will be charged from the third month.

anyway, i don't think use of the phone as a modem is excluded out of the discount although they have disabled the function in their original rom... i have not tried it myself coz i don't need such a function myself, but i will try sometime when i have time.

I wasn’t able to get it to connected with the Blue tooth to use the internet on my notebook, However using it as a USB modem with the usb cable works.

If you are on the open Softbank network in Japan be sure to use the username (open) and the password posted earlier in this and other threads.

Thanks okinz.

I find it interesting that some ports are blocked on the open softbank connection. Right now I am using a Vodafone 903T which I connect to my laptop via bluetooth. It works beautifully and it doesn't seem that ports are blocked at all since I can MSN and the rest of my apps working. But I guess the internet connection I am using is probably charged. I don't use it for long periods so it's ok.

I want to upgrade to the X01HT but I would dearly love to keep this functionality. So I was hoping someone had been successful with the bluetooth connection as carrying around a USB cable is a bit of a bummer for me.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
i think you totally misunderstood.

this open softbank connection which is covered by the flat rate discount blocks some ports. it is NOT x01ht. OF COURSE, you can use x01ht with full internet capability if you use a normal 3gpp/gprs connection such as vodafone@connect and pay by packet as you do now.

Hi qtotter,

Actually, I am not worried about the open softbank connection blocking some ports. I am happy to use vodafone@connect. I am more concerned with being able to use the x01ht as a bluetooth modem to connect my laptop to the internet. I just wanted to find out if anyone has done this yet.
