Yes, but you cannot get a smartphone on contract without a data plan. No carrier will let you do that. The only way to do this is to pay $600+ (i.e. full price) for the phone and use a Pay-Go plan.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ajftl:
yes ..just like anything else
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tone_:
Think orange do phones without a data plan
[Windows Phone 7 General] zulu208:
no, the data plan saved my ass a good many times since I've had the HD7. had the iphone 3g before w/o data and it suck balls when you aren't near any hotspot or wifi and need to get an address/number/info (had no data because I didn't feel like paying $25 for edge network)
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
buy yourself an ipod and get yourself a free feature phone with no data plan.
[Windows Phone 7 General] zulu208:
and be limited to wifi calling and paying to call a land line? no thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
that is what the feature phone is for.....
[Windows Phone 7 General] JediFonger:
i use my unlocked hermes on Tmo w/o paying for data plan =) it's pretty close to dying... just wanted to continue my non-paying of data plan w/upgraded smartphone
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Wp7 pretty much cannot even function optimally without a data plan. I guess an HD2 would work okay if u didn't set up twitter/fb/activesync to sync automatically. IPhones would also work better since they're less commected... But WP7/Android are basically tethered to a data plan for decent opetation.

These arent feature phones...
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
your right one that one , way should you buy a phone like this without a data plan ?

this is a cloud based phone so you actually need the data plan and if you don't like that don't buy it .
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Everytime I read one of my posts from my phone, I realize why I hate posting from a touchscreen keyboard :<
[Windows Phone 7 General] slyjai:
Yes you can use just wifi. I have been using my HD7 with the $9.99 webtogo unlimited internet package { Max 5 gb before throttling } getting hsdpa (3G+ • 3.5) speeds using [ Internet2.voicestream.com ]. I am not locked in a contract because I bought the phone using the EM plan T-mobile offers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JediFonger:
good2know, thanks sly. i'd still like to wait for all the bugs to be ironed out and also can't live w/o my custom ringtones. once these issues get ironed out i'll jump in.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Talys:
Yes

To answer the original question:

YES you can use WP7 without a data plan. I suppose if you are at home or work most of the time, then what the heck, save the $30. Internet on WP7 is much faster on WiFi than 3G (at least Rogers/Fido).

You can even use WP7 without a SIM (no voice, no data). It works great to play to play XBOX Live games and as a portable browser and mail client, LOL.

Also, you CAN buy the phone without a data plan (or a voice plan) -- you just have to pay the unsubsidized price.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JediFonger:
thanks for the reply =)
[Windows Phone 7 General] action_efn_jackson:
I use my WP7 with data off almost 99% of the time and everything works just fine.

I tried searching under s-off but didnt have much come up. I did read the post from the guy with Joe dirt as his avatar (sorry forgot the name) and it had some coding to turn s-off but is there an easier way... I was not able to get ADB to run.

I rooted my phone and overclocked it but I wanted to install CM6 and I need to back up my current ROM and ROm manager is not working I think it's because I need to turn s-off... is that right?

Thanks!

Is there a stock fascinate theme out there? I tryed searching and I couldn't find one.

Basically a full theme that is stock Fascinate but with a darker bar up top like the other Galaxy S's. Actually just stock fascinate all together. I miss the blue stock look.

I was wondering the same thing. I came from the lg eXpo running windows mobile and honestly after using android for a while I can't see a good enough reason to run winmo. It has it's good points that beat android, but not enough of them to warrant sticking with it.

I did see someone post how to run windows 95 on the x10 lol.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PollPixx:
That must have been the windows theme which I tried too, fun to play with, but actually useless for daily use...

[G2 and Desire Z General] jjuice525:
I bought this phone off craigslist and now I'm having certain issues with it. I was wondering if I have the T-mobile warranty even though I'm not the original owner so maybe they can help me out or replace it. I'm talking about the warranty not the insurance asurion. Does anyone know?

Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] elreason4:
It is HTC that is obligated to fulfill the G2 warranty, not T-Mobile....You must contact HTC directly to find the correct warranty repair procedure (i think it is warrantied for one year).....You could only go through T-Mobile if they sold you the phone...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Modernly:
In most cases T-Mobile will still honor the warranty for the handset. They can look up when it was first activated/purchased through their systems. It's worth a shot to walk into a store and just say you're having issues and want to get it replaced. The phone is so new there isn't anyone who is possibly out of warranty (unless it's damaged).
[G2 and Desire Z General] jjuice525:
I called HTC (the USA region) and they said they couldn't do anything about because the phone is too new and they still don't have parts or the device for repair or replacement period... I'm surprised about it... you said you got it off craigslist but still haven't gone to the tmobile store so there still isn't a chance for tmobile to fix it...

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheNewGuy:
OK I need help... I am not a noob but I cant seem to figure this one out.

I was running CM nightly 238 with the new 15 MB Hboot and radio, cm 2708port kernel, and custom MTD. everything was fine, I made a change in settings to adjust compcache and VM heap size and rebooted.... and when it started up my ext partition was gone.... So I decided to go ahead and restore a BART backup i made a day earlier.. But now bart gives an error: mounting dev block mmcblk0p2 on system/sd failed no such file or directory. I looked and there is no system/sd anymore... (I think there was, at least I KNOW bart worked the day before) So I wiped and reflashed my 238 build again and fr-patch is giving me a new error, after removing 05mountsd, and running fr-patch140.txt sdext it says that fdisk: cant open /dev/block/mmcblk1 no such device or address.... and that sd-ext mount is installed but it is not right and that I should make some noise... So I am.:)

I have tried, re-formatting and partitioning my sdcard with Recovery, and many other bits of code I found while searching google and XDA,, and still no luck... So any advice is really appreciated!

Also after this last attempt to re-partition, using default sizes via amon RA, I now cant mount sdcard via PC, but i can push to it with ADB....

--EDIT--

It turns out all this was because my ext partition was gone because the sdcard is corrupt. So I need to fix it some how. Because it seems the size has got messed up... it says total 16.2G.. and they are never over..usualy a little under. also when I try to reformat using amon RA gparted utitlity it says error: file system full, when it tries to make the ext partition... yet I have removed all the partitions using rm 1 , rm 2 ....ect

Im trying to flash a ROM using Amon recovery, but when I try to find the zip file of the rom in recovery mode, It doesnt let me map/search for it unlike Clockwork recovery..

I'm using Amon over Clockwork cuz Clockwork doesnt seem to clear the davlik like Amon, at least in my experience..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Igzekyativ:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strapt:
im not sure if i have noticed this or not before but in the application "terminal" i get line at the top of the screen no matter what I do and its this"

"export PATH=/data/localbin: $PATH

$"

now i can type "su" and it does take me to the #

but if i type "free" at the # it says :not found" .. and im pretty sure thats supposed to take you to the memory usage .. not sure why this wouldnt be working if i have it rooted right.

also something similar but a little more lengthy is when i use the terminal in "Su File Manager & terminal" app it says:

"export PATH=/data/local/bin: /data/data/com.protocol.x.su.fin:PATH;clear;

clear: permission denied

$"

that whole thing is exactly what i see .. and i cant clear it at all

any ideas as to why this is showing up and what it means??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] MadDogMaddux:
So, inspired by Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo ROM, I broke out my GiMP and have been hacking together some icons for Launcher Pro Docks, as well as use via Desktop Visualizer, what have you.

I'm making them at 256x256, but with 300PPI, so the single icon can work either for a Dock icon or a Desktop icon. Two batches so far, one I'm calling Steel, and the second Steel on Glass. "Steel" is closed, but if you need a specific icon for Steel on Glass, just give me whatever 5 letter (or less) icon you'd like and I can have it pretty quick.

Of note: the App Drawer icon is patterned after the one that comes stock with Myn's WarmTwoPointTwo - I take no credit for its design concept.

Attached here is the master file for all the Steel on Glass icons.

I am now "closing" all icon sets. I will still make custom additions to any of these icon sets

on a donation basis

, and then update the files linked here so that they will be added to the icon sets available free to the public. Just reply here or PM me if you'd like something specific.
