I am a Verizon guy and I know little/nothing about Cingy's phones so I need some advice please.

I have a friend who needs to buy 2 camera phones for Cingy GSM service and asked me to help find good ones on eBay. I dont have a clue what is good on Cingulars network and what phones are crap. She just needs 2 camera phones w/ speaker phone that are releatively cheap to purchase outright. Not really interested in Ericsson or Moto's but anything else is fine, can anybody help me with this?

Thanks in advance

This is great. on phonescoop on my with opera mini and i can view and post forums, read reviews all that good stuff. you guys need to check it out if you haven't. and if this has already been posted, sorry for reposting it.

Cingular Wireless announced a deal with Dell under which purchasers of the Dell Latitude D620 and D820 laptops will have the option to outfit their machines with Cingular's $59.99 monthly BroadbandConnect service. Cingular says the pact will eliminate the need for mobile workers to rely on Wi-Fi.

I thought I needed to put my cellphone number in the direct dial slot and I erased the number that was there!!!

Figured that the process would be different then every other phone and carrier that Ive ever used!!!

thanks for the help

Lou ...

Why doesnt cingular offer a 49.99 plan with 700 mins? Wouldnt this be a great plan that people will want and in turn increase the no. of subscribers?

I need some help here! I bought my Sony Ericsson Z520a back in December '05. It's been a great phone...coverage everywhere I go! Last week my phone suddenly started SEARCHING then went to NO NETWORK COVERAGE everywhere (meaning every place that used to get 5 bars) now has zero coverage! I took the phone to Cingular...they said I had a bad SIMS card...so they gave me a new one...didn't change anything. Went back...they gave me another SIMS card; nothing. They suggested I send the phone back for an exchange...I did. I got the new Z520a and put my SIMS card in and guess what? NO NETWORK COVERAGE OR SEARCHING! Went back to Cingular...they put my SIMS card in another phone and it worked perfectly...but their SIMS card would not work in my phone! ...

will cingular name be replace by AT&T? if so when?

Any cingular reps around...i've got a question for you. On the motorola website it says that the slvr has a scratch resistant color display. Is this true of the phones you selling?? Thanks...

How is the new all over network going to benefit cingy customers?

Im thinking about choosing cingular over verizon which I have now because Verizon has treated me terribly. I'd like to find the right phone for me. I have some qualifications the phone needs to have: #1 The best reception possible for rural areas, #2 Bluetooth, #3 A great quality external speaker for taking calls #4 and good battery life. I also have no need for a camera. I know this is a tall order but I would really like some good feedback. Thanx ahead of time for you help! P.S. Ive been considering the SLVR and the Sony Ericsson W600i / W550i.

I checked Sales Portal today at work, apparently the 9300 Communicator is being released tomorrow.

😁

Discuss.

I had a lg phone before and when using aim I would only get charge for text messages. Now using the w600i It logs in to aim using the internet. Is there any way to change this?
Thanks

Saw that Tmobile was now offering 1,500 anytime minutes for 39.99 does cingy have it in the works to offer the same?I know if they did i would come back.

1) Is it true that Cingular is being rebranded as AT&T??

2) if you've had VZW and did was in the same shoes i am now in... do u regret your move? do you think you made a smart move? how does Cingular comare to vzw?

3) What are some downsides to Cingular?

4) AM I GONNA REGRET CHANGING?!?!

5) i am either going to the the orange walkman phone or the samsung 3g fone... any opinions?

I love in the San Francisco Bay Area (Walnut Creek/Concord/Pittsburg/Antioch area is where i am most of the time) any Areans with any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!!

has anyone else had a problem downloading themes from sonyericsson.com/fun with a w600i??? if so, did you find a work around. i keep getting the message 'download of select content not allowed'. I'm logged in, i have the correct phone selected on se.com and know how to download, but I can't get this to let me... anyone have any suggestions??? and i am using Cingular with a Cingular branded phone.

Does Cingular offer 1 year contracts if I do not want a new phone? In fact, do I need a contract at all to port a VZ number over? I already have a new V3i phone that is unlocked. I'd like to try Cingular service without getting locked into a contract.

I thought there was an exclusion clause to waive the ETF if the policy holder died. Is this true?

How does it affect other lines on the account?

Specifically, my father-in-law passed away and his contract still has a few months left on it. My wife's phone is on his plan as an additional line, but the contract on it is for a longer period (it was added later than the original).

Can we get his phone cancelled without the ETF and just make her phone the primary line until the contract is up? Does she have to assume the rest of the contract, or is there a way we can cancel the whole plan without ETF? How about just splitting her off to her own contract for the remainder of the current agreement and dropping his name?

Any help is ...

now that the first quarter is almost over do you think that Radioshack made a big diffrence in adds? do you think cingular's net adds will be higher **relatively anyway** than last year? Im all for cingular but i would like to see them beat verizon in adds for once!!!!what do you guys (and gals) think?

Can anyone tell me what the etf is for the state of califonia?

Hi, I bought a Nokia 6682 in January and its a good phone but the battery does not last 1 day with minimal use like 5 minute talk time.. maybe a few text messages and thats about it. Nothing extreme. I will charge it at night and the following night it will be dead. The phone has suffered no damage at all. Never been dropped so I'm assuming that theres a defect in the battery. Would Warrany Exchange replace my battery or is it only for phones?
