Call log checkers

Man, am I the only one who hates it when people call in fifty times a day to check up on their spouses and kids? "What calls have been made? What's the number? What time was it? How many minutes?" Ugh. Get some dignity and a computer and do your own dirty laundry sniffing on line, leave us OUT of it! If you have so little trust in the people in your life that you're reduced to calling strangers to check out the health of your relationships, it doesn't MATTER what's actually going on, it's over. Sack up, get a divorce or whatever and get on with it...

Sorry, pet peeve... 👿

New Nokia & Samsung Phones Coming March 21

In talking with a care rep tonight, they commented that the Nokia 3220 and the Samsung X475 will be available on March 21. Not available for upgrade of course.
Does anyone know if this Samsung has a Speakerphone? The E330, which phonescoop says is tentatively coming to T-Mobile does. Have T-mobile just substituted models?

MCC-MNC Codes and Network Names Question

I believe that in CA T-Mobile and Cingular share the 310-170 network. Why does a T-Mobile phone would display it as T-Mobile while a Cingular phone would display it as Cingular?

Is the network name transmitted through the air or the network number is mapped to a net work name by the SIM?

Thank you very much for your clarification.

To T?, or not to T? That is the Question...

I'm currently at Alltel, but I have been at Nextel ATT, Sprint, Cingular and back to Alltel .. but never T-Mobile im going to be going to college in Akron Ohio were coverage is good with all, but for some reason Cingular freaks me out because they have to much power now and can do whatever they please ...

T-Mobile seems like a good bet with right priced phones should I go with T-Mobile or if not Alltel with what other carrier??
Thanks

What is wrong with #646#?

I used to get my weekend mins and whenever mins. Now I get mins and bonus mins. Everytime I have been checking it lately I would get like 20 bonus mins and 0 mins. Then I would check like 2 days later and it would go it would go to like 60 bonus mins and 0 mins. WTF is wrong with it? I called customer care and asked the lady what is bonus mins and she said its mins T-Mobile gives you after you have gone over your regular mins, but the thing is I haven't gone over my regular mins all that goes up is my bonus mins but not the mins, it stays at 0. So I asked her how many mins are used up so far on my number and she said 90. Then a little after I hung up and pressed #646# and it said 65 bonus mins and 0 mins. This problem has been going for week...

text message center number question

would the text message center number for a tmobile phone in california be different then the text message center number for a tmobile phone in colorado?

the reason i am asking is that i am going to get my mom a phone today, she lives in colorado and i live in california, it will be activated w/ a california number, this phone is an unlocked samsung d500, so obviously i am going to have to configure the phone for WAP/MMS/SMS.....

thanks in advance

T-Mobile Germany

Looks like the popular Sidekick 2 that has been famous in the U.S. is going to be carried by T-Mobile Germany and for a way cheaper price than the U.S.!

Paris Hilton: Victim of T-Mobile's Web Flaws?

Hackers may have manipulated an online password reset feature to steal her address book.

Paul Roberts, IDG News Service
Tuesday, March 01, 2005
Hotel heiress Paris Hilton's mobile phone account and those of other T-Mobile customers may have fallen victim to hackers who took advantage of a gaping hole in the company's Web site to steal information, according to security experts and those familiar with the incident.

A flaw in a Web site feature to reset T-Mobile account passwords is believed have played a role in hacking Hilton's T-Mobile Sidekick account, which resulted in her star-studded address book, photos, e-mail messages, and voice mail being posted for public consumption on the...

Big Decision! Help needed

So ive recently interviewed with t-mobile and cingular for a store assoc position. Now ive got offers in front of me from both and i would love some advice. The cingular store used to be a blue store and is now orange if that makes any difference. Has anyone had experience with both companies? Im interested in hearing your take on what you think i should do. Both companies seem to be offering the same in pay and benefits so that is really of no concern; Just looking for opinions

T-Mo is so boring

T-Mobile is so boring!! They rarely come out with new phones compared to verison and Cingular. And the phones they have are so plain! Where's the bluetooth selection?? Where are the phones that play mp3's? How come these little things aren't standard by now on t-mo's phones? How come every nice phone that Phonescoop anounces on it's home page is sure NOT to be carried by t-mobile?

Is t-mobile ever going to do the free in-network calling? Or do they justify it by giving a bunch-o-minutes?

I'd like to upgrade my nokia 6610 but I haven't found a phone that is really that much better that T-mobile has released since then. Why does t-mobile seem like the slow kid in the back of the class?

I would switch but i'm a sucker for all...

Sidekick Reactivation Question

Does anyone have any experience with reactivation? I'm a former customer and I cancelled my account about a year ago. I still have my unit and recently I've had the need for it again as an internet device.

What does it take to have it reactivated. Is this possible? Also would it be possible to regain my old account ( @tmail.com) provided it hasn't been used yet?

Thanks

Any chance the Motorola Razr will be released by May

I love the V3 Razr, any chance of Tmobile releasing it by May? That's when I qualify for an upgrade. I was thinking of buying it unlocked but I'd rather get it from Tmobile and have their warranty.

Thanks in advance!
