Hi all. I am a current Cingular customer who lives in nyc.

**Disclaimer**I have combed endlessly through Modaco, AT+T, Cingular, and Howards forums.

I have successfully unlocked my phone and have inserted my 64k cingular sim card. I can make calls + surf the web.

However, I can't seem to receive txt messages from other carriers.

Also, there is a roaming icon appearing on the top of my. When I go to change networks, only AT+T and T-Mobile show up.

how do i fix the txt thing and the roaming issue? I have followed the GPRS and proxy settings according to this site.

I question (current settings)

start >more>settings>phone>call options>

voicemail number: +19084630020

sms service center:+12099042030

and (current settings)

start >more>settings>phone>networks>

Can someone help me?
