NEED HELP with an unlocked cingular phone

I just recently bought an unlocked Cingular palm Treo 750 on ebay. And actually I like the phone but I can not get it to do what I need it to do. I use Suncom as a service provider, who just recently merged with T-mobile. I went to Suncom and they supposedly set everything up so I could get on the interenet. Well....... I can not get any page to come up. It says that the page cannot be displayed and to check the connection. I went to suncom again who told me that unlocked Cingular phones do not work well with suncom and there was nothing they could do. I want to use this phone to help me with my college work and I can not. Does anyone have any type of suggestion for me. I am sooooo frustrated. I have been with suncom for many years but this makes me mad. Can ANYONE HELP ME???

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
I am very sorry you are having these issues and have a few suggestions that may resolve your issue.
Make sure the SIM card is inserted correctly before continuing.
First, you may want to contact T-Mobile to make sure they have the right device provisioned onto their network and that the Treo 680 is supported.
Second, you could have a bad SIM card. SIM cards are usually free at stores. See if they can swap it out and if that resolves your connection issues.
Thrid, try a hard reset. A hard reset will erase everything off the device so be sure you backup your data on a computer via hotsync. For further
instructions on how to do a hard reset, go to kb.palm.com and search for article # 42094 in the solution ID. search field. Before you add any data back onto the device make sure you are able to establish a connection to the T-Mobile network.
If none if this works, you may have recieved a defective device from ebay. I hope not though.
Well, I hope one of the suggestions resolve your issue. Let me know if you have any further questions.

    I would love to go play with one. But I’m currently deployed  over sea’s with the Navy right now due to come home back to the states in a few months and I’m looking for a new phone, the one’s in Japan suck and so does the service. Can’t wait for an American phone. I compared both phones on the version website and it shoed the Droid x to support VZ navigator. And it showed the Droid 2 to be expandable to 40 gig. My wife wants the keyboard I personally don’t like the drop down keyboard. Is there any thing else you all can tell me every body has been extremely helpfully. But at this point it looks like I’m going with the droid X and my wife will be getting the Droid 2. What about sound, camera is the touch screen accurate?   
    Thank you for serving the U.S. Navy!
    I hope you do enjoy the new Droid X and your wife enjoys the Droid 2. Remember this....you both have 30 days to try out the phone. If you don't like for whatever reason or something is wrong with it just exchange it. This is nice because you can pretty much test out the phone & see if it meets your needs/wants.  Not sure about the sound or camera. For touch screen I have read it is pretty responsive. Have you ever owned a touch screen before? If not it may take a little time to warm up to the touch screen part. Just remember, practice makes perfect for typing on the touch screen and other things. I  think the Droid X has swype built into it which makes it easier to type on

  • Need help with synching 2 different phones.

    Hello I have a N82 and a 6085. In a nutshell I want to have the same information (contacts with numbers and aaddresses) on both phones. What confuses me is the difference between synching with the nokia synch application,Microsoft Outlook, and Nokia Communication center.
    I only recently found out that you can't save addresses on the SIM card, it has to be on the phone memory. What I also didn't know is if you have the names and adresses in the phone memory and on the SIM and you don't select Phone or SIM only the phone displays both. I was wondering why I had so many duplicate entries.
    OK but back to the main problem. Where does Nokia Communication Center get it's list from? How about regular Synch? 

    Try to directly transfer from 6085 to N82. To do this, turn on the Bluetooth of both phones and make sure that the 6085 is set to Visible to all. Then start:
    Tools > Utilities > Switch
    Folow the steps. Basically it will ask what sync you want, so select Download (the middle button in case the Wizard does not start). 
    If you want to use computer, then Syncing is not you need. You need to use Content Copier. Start it and make a backup of the 6085. Then connect the Nokia N82 and use Restore, choosing the backup file of the 6085.

  • Need help with buttons in a phone simulation

    Hello
    I have built a telephone interface to be used for training in a Call Center.
    I am attempting to allow the user to press on the numberpad to enter passwords and such.
    It is only a simulation and will only work if the user presses the correct buttons.
    I am able to create the simulation when the user presses different buttons such as 1234
    but I need them to press 0000 (zero 4 times)
    I am not sure how to do this...
    I have been playing around with the advanced actions, which has allowed me to accomplish the hide and show actions when the user clicks a button, but wondering if there is a way I can
    have them click the 0 on the dialpad so each time it brings up the next zero
    once its gets to the 4th one, it will advance to the next slide...
    Hope that makes sense
    I appreciate any help or advice
    thanks
    Melissa

    Hi there,
    What I did, I took a variable 'counter123' and assign '0' value to this variable.
    I then added a button with Advanced action, I am sharing the Screenshot of the advanced action panel.
    Screen shot 1 :
    Incrementing the Value on click :
    The value of the variable should increase on every click, so lets add a true statement as a condition.
    Screenshot no 2 :
    As normally on buttons/click boxes, the project will continue as soon we click them.
    lets compare the value of our variable and then pause the project.
    Screen shot 3 :
    last if our purpose is solved, here we have clicked the button 4 times, so that has updated the value of our counter to 4, so as soon as the counter exceeds the value, we want the project to continue.
    please let me know if this helps you.
    This will help you in pressing a button 4 times, and i think you can also add actions to show and hide 'zeros' in your project.
    I find such scenarios very interesting and I always find help on Lilybiri's Blog : http://lilybiri.posterous.com/
    Thanks

  • 10.9.5 update issues -- need help with sync to LG phone

    While 2 GB is the absolute minimum to install Mavericks, if you want to do anything with the Mac you need more then that. Upgrade your RAM.
    Until you upgrade the RAM seriously consider shutting down the Mac nightly. You should also seriously review the items in the User Login Items to see if there are any there that you really don't need to have startup with your login to reduce the amount of RAM you are using.

  • HT200150 I need help with the Find my Phone application

    We found my daughters phone using the Find my Phone application. Before we found it, I locked it so that no one could use it. Now I am in able to unlock it because I can't seem to remember the password. Is there anyway around this?

    If you found the phone and cant remember the password, you will need to plug it into itunes and restore it to factory settings.

  • Need help with question about upgrading phone

    Okay, so, here's what's going on:
    I currently have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus on Verizon.
    It's dying/freezing/battery life is terrible. Looking to upgrade.
    I don't have an upgrade available for my line, but my wife does.
    She's giving me permission to use hers, which a Verizon rep told me is fine.
    I want to use her upgrade to get a Samsung Galaxy Note II.
    The best price (subsidized) right now is on Dell's site ($169.99), which I could price-match at Best Buy (employee confirmed this). However, it's still a little high for me.
    I could get a better price by adding a line with this device - shave off $40 ($129.99).
    So here's my question: is there any way to add a line, get some immediate savings on the purchase, then immediately cancel the line (maybe only taking a little bit of a hit, getting most of the cost reimbursed for not using it)? In other words, how can I get this phone as cheap as possible?
    Thanks for your suggestions!

    If you add a line as you suggest, that new line will come with a 2 year (24 month) contract for service that will have a $350 Early Termination Fee (ETF) if you cancel the line immediately like you indicated.  There goes the thought of getting the Note II for the cheaper than the upgrade price.
    I recommend going with the price match upgrade @ $169.99 at Best Buy.  I can confirm they do the price match.  I bought my last phone from Best Buy and they matched the Radio Shack price I brought them and  I had a good experience.
    Good luck.

    Dear Apple,
    I have an iPhone 4 32GB (black), i bought from softbank, japan. Now, I have recently finished a graduate and i'll comeback home in Laos. But i can't continue to use my iphone.
    Could you please help me to unlock my phone so I can use it with other carrier Sims. I would appreciate it.
    Please let me know if you could help me out. Thanks again.
    <Edited by Host>

    Like ckuan said, Apple does not unlock iPhone; your carrier does, provided that the carrier offers this service.
    Unfortunately, SoftBank does not offer authorized unlocking of iPhone.
    Your best option is to sell this phone and buy another iPhone from the carrier of your choice or better buy a factory unlocked iPhone so you would be able to use it with any compatible GSM carrier around the world.

    i cant activate my iphone 5c because it has been locked with a different apple id. i dont know the original owner so i need help. its a second-hand phone that i bought some months back

    Unfortunately, there is pretty much nothing you can do. Only the owner of the account used to lock it can remove the lock. If you can't contact whoever you purchased it from, or if they can't or won't remove the lock, then it's a brick. There is a very real chance that it's stolen.

  • Need help with a activation code for Adobe Acrobat X Standard for my PC,, Don't have older version serial numbers,  threw programs away,  only have Adobe Acrobat X Standard,  need a code to unlock program?

    Need help with a activation code for Adobe Acrobat X Standard for my PC, Don't have older Version of Adobe Acrobat 9, 8 or 7. 

    You don't need to install the older version, you only need the serial number from your original purchase. If you don't have them to hand, did you register? If so, they should be in your Adobe account. If not you really need to contact Adobe, though it isn't clear they will be able to do anything without some proof of purchase etc.
