Hi,
I currently live in Portland, OR and I'm using Voicestream/T-Mobile.

What is the lastes software for T68m ?

Will Voicestream store upgrade your phone for free ?

I have problem with my T68, when I select WAP, the phone just freeze on me, I asked for replacement phone form Voicestream, they send me a replacement phone but the problem still exist.
I tried my SIM to my friend's T68 and work just fine ?

Please help me guys..
Thanks a lot

agent23, call Voicestream and tell them your WAP isn't working. Make sure you are signed up for GPRS data service as opposed to the "regular" wireless web. You will need to receive an SMS from them containing the WAP settings for your phone. After that it will work.

You won't be able to do an "official" upgrade of your phone in the US. There are a few threads on this subject in the forum if you search.

I'm just passing this info along, but other users have talked about sending their phone to a guy in PA who upgraded their phones. Have heard only positive remarks, but again I haven't dealt with him myself. Try sending him an email:

Robb Weiss
2000 Technology drive suite 400
Pittsburgh,Pa 15219
412-395-1146
email: ke3ee@attbi.com

It would also be a nice drive up the coast to Vancouver, B.C. if you can find an address there. Take a long weekend...

Thanks a lot jnonhoffzieg.

I don't know what's wrong with the phone.

The software is R2B013, is that the latest ?

I asked for replacement phone from T-Mobile, it still not working, still freeze on me when I select WAP.

My other phone, I have 2 phones works just fine when I select WAP from the menu.

How is it freezing when trying to do WAP? Is it that it never connects, and you can still hit a button to make it stop trying to connect, or does it literally freeze? If the first, get GPRS (it's worth the extra cost anyhow.) WAP uses regular voice channels, so they can be taken up. GPRS has dedicated channels. If the second, try a new battery and home charger. Really.

when you are in the MENU,
I point my active cursor to the WAP Icon and when I press "YES" or push down the joystick on that WAP ICON, it freezes on me.

IT also freeze on me when I select Connect -> data comm -> data Account -> freeze

Please help me

basicly, It freezes when I select WAP icon.
It's not when I'm using WAP, because I can't even get into the WAP menu.

I think if you have this kind of problem it may caused by your phone not your service provider.

agent23, I think johnnie is right - the problem is with your phone. Just take it back to the T-Mobile store and they should give you a new phone. Definitely do that before going through the hassle of upgrading! Good luck...

Thanks a lot guuys,
I've contacted T-Mobile and asked for another replacement.
Hopefully that the next replacement phone works just fine.

Thanks much for the advice.
