[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
I recently got rid of my data plan for my TouchPro and downgraded to a Touch (Vogue, XV6900), since it does not require a data package. Then I realized I could no longer send/receive PIX/FLIX messaging because their MMS uses the data network.

They told me that if I have a smartphone I have to buy data package ($30 a month) to get pix/flix working, or I can pay for data by the MB, yet on regular phone (non-smartphones) pix/flix works fine, and you do not need to pay for data at all. Is this a limitation of Windows Mobile or what?

Is there anyone on Verizon right now, with a windows Mobile phone but without a data plan that can send/receive MMS free like dumbphones can?

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] nahid569:
one question for you, the xv6900 does not have wifi right? so if you dont have the data plan what do you plan to use your phone for?
[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
why does a phone need a data plan or wifi to be worth it? I had a dat aplan for over a year, and loved it, but it was not worth $30 a month just for the convenience of having my email checked every 5 minutes. I became a slave to it. I actually feel a lot better now that I have no data, and feel free-er. Here is what I currently use my phone for...

1. Calls

2. SMS/Texting

3. GPS via TomTom 7 (locks in under 30 seconds)

4. Transcriber feature everyday for instant translation of my writing into text. Very useful for night classes/school

5. Bluetooth syncing/audio streaming

6. MP3 Player

7. DivX/XviD/H264 Video Player

8. Xflib.com games

(the list goes on...)

Your question basically stated that a phone is useless without a data plan, and that simply does not hold true.

Now, can anyone answer my original question about forcing data on smartphones just to do simple PIX messaging? Is this true, or do I need to fix something on my phone?
[General Questions and Answers] nahid569:
I said nothing about getting a DATA PLAN, I said it should at least have WIFI, I mean a PDA is for organizational, email purpose. I personally dont have data so I hate it too but I have wifi.

Nonetheless, yes you need data to to MMS messaging. I am on verizon too and I have called them there is no way to do it any other way. So I gave up on MMS.
[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
Again, this is your "opinion". Before this phone, I had a XV6800 and a TouchPro, both of which have Wifi, and I never once turned it on or used the WiFi in a year and a half of owning those phones. WiFi on PDAs is pointless to me, in my opinion.

We use our phones for different things, so what's wrong with that? You use it as an organizational tool, I use it as a 16GB flash drive, and a TomTom GPS. It was only $50, so if I had wanted a 16gb flash drive and a TomTom separately it would have easily been over $100, so why do you care so much how I use my phone?
[General Questions and Answers] nahid569:
wow nevermind, it doesnt matter. But your question has been aswered so mods close this thread please.
[General Questions and Answers] crobs808:
"wow nevermind"...? why the attitude? we use our phones for different purposes...why do you care so much how i used or don't use my smartphone? jeez, stop being such a commie about this.

also, don't order the mods around. they do their job just fine on here.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Loccy:
I have a Vodafone Magic, thus no Exchange capability. I tried TouchDown, couldn't get it to work at all, and was on the verge of flashing my ROM in order to install something with native Exchange support until I found this thread over on the Dream forum:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=536727

They've stripped out the Mail.apk file from the MyTouch ROM (which they found over here in Sapphire land!). The APK file installs and runs fine on my Vodafone/Google branded model using Apps Installer. You'll have a new email program called "Work Email" which will happily run side by side with the GoogleMail app or indeed the crappy built in Email app. No contacts, no calendar, but proper Exchange push email in a clean, no frills interface.

I thought I'd share this with people because it's not in an obvious place where people on the Sapphire/Magic boards would find it easily (and also so I can track it down quickly myself in the future!)

As an aside, am I right in thinking that there are several HTC-branded Exchange clients for the Magic? We've got

* "Work Email", which is a separate app, and which comes with the MyTouch flavoured Magic devices. This is email only.

* a version of the main email app which supports ActiveSync along with the more usual POP3 and IMAP, and which I believe comes with Asian market Magics. This does Contacts and Calendar.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Gimpeh:
Thats too bad you couldn't get Touchdown to work. That little app is so wonderful. It has tons of features and even supports its own set of widgets for tasks, inbox and calender.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Hotas:
Yes, Touchdown works great for me too. I'm 99% sure that your problem is related to incorrect settings you made (I did the same). Check out the Touchdown Google group. The TD devs answer every question, most likely the same day. Have never seen such a close support.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] jon0881:
This is fantastic. I have touchdown working (i had to use domain\username to get it to work) but it costs $29. This is free! if the calendar can be added then that would make it perfect.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] ari197:
Just like to confirm something...does the Work Email app has activesync capabilities?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] ari197:
Wonder if you could help me with my touchdown config..

My company us running Ms Exchange 2003 SP 2 server with a self-signed certificates. From the advance config screen, I know that the activesync status is ready. i've also loaded the client cert. I also able to see my folders from my the choose folder screen, so I assume that I've the correct configuration.

The problem is that I can't get my inbox to sync but my sent-mail folder is sync and also I'm able to sent emails..

Any hint?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] looktall:
i'm no longer using touchdown, so i can't check the specific settings, but have you checked the settings to make sure it is checking for new emails automatically as they arrive rather than manually or after a certain period of time?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] ari197:
I finally get touchdown to work after emptying my inbox folder ..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] MikLSP:
I don't see why you're all talking about Touchdown when the topic was created about the native push email support.

Back on topic, I've been using the "work email" as it comes built into Cyanogens ROMs which are of course compatible with the Magic. It works very well and I'd much prefer to use this than an installed app.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] riddelln:
remote provisioning

You may or may not be able to connect to your exchange server using "Work Email" app. If your exchange admins require that your phone has been remotely provisioned you won't be able to use this app.

Touchdown guys sorted this out. That's why I paid the money for a great app. Worth every cent.

Hi There!!

Thanks so much for that!! Ive downloaded it and its all working brilliantly.

Exactly what i was looking for......

Ive only got one question-

to recieve Emails to my WM device, is my device constantly roaming to recieve them, or is my Email only triggered and sent to my device by the SMS?

In other words, is it costing me (constant) roaming time to keep this app running?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bayhas:
hotmail accounts

Hi, im not sure if this will help but use the following method for your mail accounts. Hope it helps. Goto mail and settings then new accounts.

Where example1 etc is written enter your actual email address.

when it asks for your email enter it as follows. example1@pop3.live.com. your actual password. follow the settings and do not use the net to get settings. put in pop3.live.com for the pop3 screen. and smtp.live.com. on the smtp screen. check the box to allow smtp. and advanced settings. Modify as necessary. Continue and complete other features as you wish.

Once its completed go to settings then the account u just setup. change the last part of ur email from live.com to either hotmail.co.uk/hotmail.com/live.com or live.co.uk.

In the settings for the email you can change from the connection type from Wifi to 3gprs or anything.

If you have mutiple accounts one the first screen of the new account setup enter your password, but for the email add enter:

example2@pop3.live.com2

example3@pop3.live.com3

example4@pop3.live.com4

follow setup as previously.

Notice the numbers 2, 3, 4 on the end this can be changed later if you have several accounts with a provider.

took me a lot of reading up2 do on this mostly thanks to guys here at xda and ppc geeks.

Hope this helps.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tedbearmeadows:
That sounds cool, ill give it a try!

but again would it be best to have an unlimited data plan as the phone is constantly roaming for the emails, or is the phone only triggered if i get an email??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bayhas:
unlimited would be better but in the settings when u go into the settings menu for that specific email acc. you can change from "the internet" which would be a wifi connection. or your network internet. mines is tmobile so i can swap when at home an out. but its completely up2u.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tedbearmeadows:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhang:
when switching back and forth between roms or just keeping up with Cyanogen's speedy update schedule, I always have problems with the market knowing which apps I have and which I don't, so I was wondering if an app or script could just scan the apps on the device internal & apps2sd them remake the marketdb to reflect what is truly on the phone??

I may be wrong but it seems as its the marketdb that keeps this info, not the market "server" so it sounds easy, but since I couldn't code my way out of a paperbag how would I know if its easy or not...

it's no big deal but it would be nice, im sure im not the only cat who has thought of this so there must be sumthing more complex than I can understand that keeps it from happening...

just an idea,

bhang
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kusotare:
the marketdb sucks for that kind of thing. use atrackdog. it creates its own db and updates it every time you run it to show exactly what you have on the phone and scans the market for updates on request.

Every now and then, my TomTom 7 loses GPS connection while driving, the screen turns grey (as if you're driving in a tunnel) and after a few seconds it gets a fix again. This happens about 2-3 times per hour. Occasionally, it will not get a new fix and I have to reset my TP2 - which is a drag.

stock from this and hoping i get an OTA soon
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
You flashed DREAIMG.NBH to a phone with Haykuro's SPL? I've read that would brick a phone. Evidently not.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisag92:
b4 i flashed the DREAIMG.NBH i flashed g1 original boot loader into it. but ive done it on haykuro's alot. never bricked. i think its because haykuros spl prevents from brick and the NBH file replaces the SPL to original also :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
Exactly. Both the SPL and radio are reverted back to stock so you shouldn't brick your phone. I've done this with mine and it didn't brick and I was able to re-flash the Radio/SPL, no problems.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisag92:
wen did u get the OTA? how long it take
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
The time is variable for each person as the network might only check your phone version every few hours and it might take till the next cycle for the OTA to be sent to you (I honestly don't know as I have never used the OTA and I'm on AT&T so it would've never been sent to me regardless). I, didn't use the OTA, I only reverted because there was a problem with my phone that necessitated the temporary downgrade. However, shouldn't take more than a day.

oo okay hopefully i get it soon
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:

[Touch HD General] -=Tavos=-:
Aloha !

I have a problem and I need your help (and yes, I have searched already):

My Blackstone activates data connections automatically, if a programm tries to reach the internet.

So far not a problem, as I have a flatrate for that.

The problem is, that it consumes much energy, if the data conection is etsablished and you drive in you car.

So my question is:

Is there any way to connect just manual to the internet ?

I tried deactivating the data connections by HD Tweak.

Afterwards it is still possible to connect to the internet and I even get an ip adress, but no programm on the phone is able to use that connection.

Does anyone have a clue, how to fix this ? It would be just perfect !

Tools like NoData and gb soft gprs umts tweak dont work, as they either dont block automatic connection or disable data connections completly.

Help would be appriciated, as this problem really annoys me.

Tavos
[Touch HD General] Rudegar:
settings->connections->connections->advanced->select network

and select my home network or whatever it's called on your device

then no can create a connection using anything but wifi or over activesync

and when you want to let it use gprs

you do the same by select my isp or <insert your isp name> or whatever it's called on your device
[Touch HD General] -=Tavos=-:
Thanks for the answer, but thats not what I am looking for.

I want to be able to switch the data connection on/off by one click (with the CommManager for example), but not the programs to be able to do it.

The way you offered, it is completely off or it can be connected by programs.

I agree, this could be useful indeed.

I don't see the point of having a switch in the comm manager, if then any program can turn it on.
