ok thanks for your reply. i'll give it a go

I have recently moved to New Zealand and now have an NZ vodafone prepay sim in my phone. Checking the balence on this is slightly more long winded than I'm used to as o2 is simply *#10# which I set as a speed dial.

With vodafone there is 3 ways to check the balance:

1) phoning up the freephone number and going through a sequence of keypresses.
2) using the vodafone live! application from the sim card which eventually sends a text message with the balance.
3) texting bal to 777 which texts back the balance amount.

out of all of them it seems 3 is the quickest if i could somehow find someway to setup the text message being prefilled with subject and receipient. then i would just need to set a button to send it.

does anyone know of a way i can do this?

I'm off to New Zealand in a weeks time and it would be a nightmare if data connections were active, not to mention costly! I was just wondering, I disabled my '3G' in the comm manager and then set nodata to disable my t-mobile connection. I now have a large 'G' in a white square. Does this mean that its deactivated or not?

I have tested with a browser and it says that it cannot connect with current settings. I know that sounds like its disabled but I just want to make sure incase I run up a costly bill. I was expecting some sort of 'X' for the icon instead.

thanks alot

I have mixed up my C500 and Kaiser mains chargers and don't know which is which. I know your thinking, wait a minute... they are both mini USB adapters and do the same thing. But I'm in the process of doing some packing and want to make sure I get the C500 charger in the C500 box with the phone etc. So I was just wondering if someone could tell me what some of the writing on the Kaiser charger says so that I can confirm which is which.

Cheers.

looks very good. while i wait, does anyone know where i can get this t9 keypad from?

Just wondering if anyone here has an idea of how to change the clock skin? Ideally, I would like to keep my today screen the same but just change the clock to look like the one on the diamond.

thanks guys. a really helpful guy over at xda helped me resolve the problem

I was changing the splash screen on my phone and sim unlocking it and now there is no sound at all! only vibrate is working what can i do??

also just realised if i listen to it close i can hear hissing and a slight crackling noise


Update: cant even hear people talking on the phone

thanks for your help i have successfully changed my screens

one last thing. is it possible to hide the numbers in red on the first screen?

all the command line stuff goes way over my head. surely there is a more simple way to just change the background start screen from t-mobile. someone here must have done it?

I just wanted this as my first screen:



And then for now I was going to leave the second screen as it was. How can I choose my own first screen?

which splash screen does the first application install? what does it look like?
also, what is the second splash screen (windows mobile one) replaced with?
what is the third splash screen?

ok so i ran through steps 1 and 2 but i still have the same boot screen

I have seen this but I don't want the modaco picture, I would like to use my own if possible?

If this method above doesn't hard reset my phone, is it possible to run the zip file but for me to upload a different picture?

I was just wondering if there is a way of changing the t-mobile splash screen image on my kaiser without having to make a hard reset?

i was about to post a new thread then saw this. i have the same problem! guess i'll uninstall opera and wait for the fix

that worked great thanks

I have v0.90 but its not in the remove programs list. how do i get it off my phone?

haven't tried it yet but i think im going to.

HSDPA has just started to appear on my Vario 3 in the west midlands (stafford)!

Finally I can enjoy faster speeds. Couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw it, thought it must have been a mistake!

wow this is great. cant wait to try it out in august!!

ditto, i took my vario 3 contract out at the same time. there seems to be some confusion as to the official specs of the device however once a review becomes available i would be very interested as the device looks so much nicer that the vario 3 in terms of visual aspects.

ok so i guess its the signal that needs to be turned off, and the backlight turned off which will allow maximum battery to be saved. is this possible?
