Anybody Planning to Remove the data plan, Please do this how do u delete the info so that ur phone does not use data network and u get a big fat bill...??
Click on Select Networks Set both to My ISP Click on Edit... for one of them (they will both be set since you chose the same profile for both) Click on the Modem Tab Click on Edit.. Click Next Remove the Access point name Click Next Remove all the information Click Finish
Its sort of a dirty way to do it. You can't actually remove the connection setting thats in there. But you can remove all the login info so that your phone can't sign on to 3G even if it wanted to. This info can be found in the user manual or online if you ever do decide to use the data network.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Question: One of my friend got the 8525 and his ROM version is 2.xx where as my ROM version is 1.34.502.3. I think the latest ROM version has the "X" feature which will enable to close and application(Kill) rather than going into the background when u press x on the top. I want the new ROM version! Anybody has any clue?
Emulating HP’s calculators on Windows Mobile - link here
Email? I don't use outlook... blah. I use Thunderbird for non gmail accounts and gmail for most things. The installable gmail program from google works really well. Just sign on to gmail from your phone and there is a link that says make gmail faster. It'll install a program that displays gmail extremely well.
Calendar? There is also a free utility called Activegcsync that will sync google calendars with the ppc calendar. It's in the early stages and can only sync one calendar instead of multiple. Google it and you should find it.
GPS? ppcwarez.org
Contract Length? Log in online to your account. Look for the last tab that says "My Profile". Then go to the second tab, I think "User Information". About half way down you will find your contract experiation. Don't assume your upgrade due date is your contract end date - they say I have to wait 21 months to upgrade, but my contract is up in a month - does NOT make any sense.
FAMILY PLAN CONVERSION? Playing around on the site, i also noticed another thing that should come in real handy for all of those looking to transfer to a family plan. You could switch to a family plan online!! Under "Rate Plan & Features" there is a tab on bottom left "Change Rate Plan". The second choice is to "Convert to Family Talk". You can select your numbers, plan etc...
Unlock? what's the standard unlocker for this phone? I found something called v3a at the xda site
i used the v3a and it worked like charm...pretty neat program http://pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/
Delete 3G setting? Eliminating potential charges?
Use isp if you have PDA data connect, use wap if you have media max. Delete it if you don't use either. The phone WILL try to connect to 3G if wifi is unavailable and you open a program that needs internet. This can be very dangerous if you don't have a data plan, since you can't turn off the charge per use from at&t.
Click on Select Networks Set both to My ISP Click on Edit... for one of them (they will both be set since you chose the same profile for both) Click on the Modem Tab Click on Edit.. Click Next Remove the Access point name Click Next Remove all the information Click Finish
Its sort of a dirty way to do it. You can't actually remove the connection setting thats in there. But you can remove all the login info so that your phone can't sign on to 3G even if it wanted to. This info can be found in the user manual or online if you ever do decide to use the data network.
Want old phone number from Cingular? the best would be...port your number to prepaid Tmobile...no activation fees...port the number back to the new Cingular phone.
porting hotline for Cingular: (888) 898-7685
Anyway around old number? I hear a lot of people talking about porting back and forth, but I don't see anyone who actually did it yet. I can tell you what I did. I left my two old phones up (because I have 2 months left in the contract), and just set up voice mails that told callers my new number. If someone doesn't call and get the new number in the next two months, they must not need to talk to me much anyway. I know it seems like a pain to change phone numbers, but it isn't that big of a deal (unless you have it printed on business cards)......
Unofficial Windows Mobile 6 ROMs comparison Keep in mind that flashing your ROM with unofficial versions may void your warranty. The XDA forums are generally very good at helping you out. But if you don't know what you are doing, I'd suggest waiting for the official upgrade. HTC (makers of 8525) has announced a WM6 upgrade sometime this year for free. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Cooked_ROMs
Copying Contacts? Go to SIM Manager then to Menu and Select All and then tap and hold the screen and press save to contacts.
Turn off startup animation WARNING, DON'T DO THIS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. I HOLD NO RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU KILL YOUR PHONE Get a registry editor (I use the HTC signed one here - download, unzip, send to 8525)
Go to: HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation Go to: Enabled Change from: 1 to 0
wait 30 secs do a soft reset
Did this on 3 8525s already. All works

I'm eligible for Premier, and I'm using an aging Nokia 6620 with an old ATT Wireless/Cingular Blue plan. I was thinking of taking advantage of this deal and getting a two year contract, but not sure which phone to get, either the 8525 or the Palm Treo 750. It looks like the 8525 has better specs/features but the Palm is a better form factor (not as bulky). Any thoughts?

Think twice before giving up your Blue plan. Consider buying an unlocked phone or get one and unlock it yourself.
I just got 8525 couple of days ago in my hand from Premier Site. So deal works for sure. Deal is on for a month or can be discontinued by Cingular (maybe due to FW effect! )
Phone is free, but tax is charged on full price..$599.99. Also choice of Treo 750 as well for free.
5 months ago, I got this phone for $500+, plus $45 monthly fee and $500 deposit. I paid $1000+ when purchasing this phone in local store... I was crazy. Damn!
The term stupid comes to mind. You can get the same phone for less on the bay. GO into cingular and get a free phone, then just pop your sim card into the one you bought on eBay.
jsehlms said:The term stupid comes to mind. You can get the same phone for less on the bay. GO into cingular and get a free phone, then just pop your sim card into the one you bought on eBay.
Life is then good. Show me on eBay where you can get this phone for free or even close to free. You have no idea what you are talking about. Good deal OP for those that qualify. This is a $450 phone in store.
Great find, OP, if sold on Cingular. Sprint's SERO deal (FW Deal Discussion Thread) may be a better deal over the long term. Giving you green as this is a great deal for Cingular.
Sorry, guys, didn't mean to TC, but since I'm in the red anyway... The 8525 is a great phone and this is a good deal. I just wanted to point out that the PPC 6700 on SERO costs less if planning to honor the contract. I pay less than half ($26 + $4 insurance) of the monthly price for similar national service (500 anytime, 7-7 unlimited, FIMF, 500 txt, unlimited data). I use the 6700 particularly because the wifi enables me to use Skype when I'm out of the country. Also, I can use it as a modem when there's no wifi coverage in the states. I hope that's useful information to some people trying to decide which plan/phone is right for them.
Again, if you're sold on Cingular & the 8525, this is a great find and the OP definitely deserves green.
EDIT - Not in the red anymore. Thanks for the love, guys.
If I buy this and cancel a month later, what would the cancellation fee be? If it's just $200 it's worth buying it and cancelling a month later. I know the 8125 can be unlocked easily. Probably the same for the 8525.
You can also get the Palm Treo 750 FREE with a voice and data package on the Cingular Premier site. I just paid about $400 for one less than 6 weeks ago (it was more on the Premier site) through the regular retail store when I upgraded my plan for another 2 years so I am calling the Premier department to inquire about a price adjustment.
Here are some of the current offerings (for my company) however it appears the deals seem somewhat universal. Probably trying to sell off those Cingular badged phones. VHA Employee Discount Program Exclusives

I would definitely go with the 8525 - better keyboard, hsdpa, faster processor, better screen resolution, better camera. While the 750 is slightly less bulky, it certainly isn't a BlackJack in terms of thickness. Both are good phones though...

It looks like the 8525 has better specs/features but the Palm is a better form factor (not as bulky). Any thoughts?
I started off with the 8525... thought I HAD to have it. The folks at the Cingular store told me I wouldn't like it and would be bringing it back because they know that I am all about convenience. Well, they were right. In less than one week, I was right back in the store getting the Treo 750.
The 8525 has a beautiful screen and is larger than the Treo. However, is like carrying around a brick and you really have to concentrate (unless you're good, and I'm certain that there are those of you here who are) in getting the keyboard out with one hand and trying to type one handed. I can do all this with the Treo with no problems. Plus, the Treo is much lighter. I am certainly not trying to talk you into any direction, just expressing my observations and subsequent decision between the two phones.
Oh yeah, I just ordered myself a Blackberry Pearl (refurb) for $59 on the Premier site because I've wanted to try it for awhile. Several of my friends have them and love them. I recieved the phone the next day with free FedEx shipping. The phone appears brand new (protective stickers in place) with everything that ships with a new retail phone although it arrived in a white box. I'm having fun with this phone. I just ordered the phone only with no plan change. I switched my unlimited data plan to the Blackberry data plan and I'm off and running.
rjk6w4 said:I would definitely go with the 8525 - better keyboard, hsdpa, faster processor, better screen resolution, better camera. While the 750 is slightly less bulky, it certainly isn't a BlackJack in terms of thickness. Both are good phones though...
there is a workaround to enable HSDPA on the Treo's also.
I guess a better question...is there anything much better than these two phones coming out in the next 6 months or so? (Understandably probably not a free phone deal, but still) And don't say iPhone because I can't believe they made that phone without 3G capability.
Also, I had heard that you need a newer SIM card to use the 3G network, so I don't think I would be able to use my old AT&T Wireless sim and connect to the 3G/UMTS with an unlocked phone.
My Blue plan was great. I have the Olympic Gold package, 550 anytime, unlimited N+W (7pm) and M-M, 200 text, 20 MMS, and 2MB internet for $52. What was great was that my internet was not being counted since Cingular bought AT&T Wireless, so I was getting great value for my package. Well since Cingular got bought by AT&T, the glitch was fixed and now my data is being counted, and 2MB doesn't get very far, even with only EDGE speeds.
