No "Band" tab on Treo Pro settings

Hi,
I just received an unlocked Treo Pro, bought in the USA, two days ago. Since then Ive been trying all the settings and just making sure everything works as it should, and everything does except for the fact that I can't manually turn off 3G as there is no "band" tab on the phone settings. Instead of the band tab I have a PIN tab. So my phone settings look like this: Services - Network -PIN/PIN2 (where the band tab should be) - ALS - Beacon - More. I've looked for a band tab pretty much everywhere on this phone but there isn't one.
So, yesterday I used the chat support and your representative told me to return the phone and get another one. Being that I'm not in the USA this is something I would do only if all else fails. However I was doing some research in other online forums and found out I'm not the only one with this problem and everyone else with this issue has an unlocked Treo Pro with software T850UNA -1.02-NAE and firmware 1.65.29.45. So, now I'm afraid to return the phone and then get a new one with the same firmware and same issue. I need to make a decision ASAP and really need to know if an older version of firmware can be installed or if something can be done to solve this problem, as being able to manually turn 3G on and off is a MUST for me and everyone I know can do so easily on their devices. I really don't want to have to return the phone, which for me means mailing it to another country, and everything else works perfect but I need to have a band tab! Please help me!

I recently bought an unlocked Treo Pro but I don't have a SIM card in it so this just speculation until someone tests it.
In my Registry, there is the following setting:
\HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\ShowUMTSBandPage
It currently is set to 0, which usually means "false". If this were set to 1, which usually means "true", that might fix the problem.
For comparison, ShowALSPage=1, ShowBEACONPage=1, and ShowPINPage=1, while ShowPIN2Page=0 and ShowNITZPage=0.
(This forum does not support registry edits as there is too much risk of breakage. At least make a solid Sprite Backup first. Then search for advice on PHM and Resco registry editors.)

"Cannot open Help. The file cannot be found." Error on Treo Pro

I can see a support item listed on my phone when I try to search the Help files, but when I click on that item, it gives me an error message, "Cannot oepn Help. The file cannot be found."
I am trying to block telemarketer calls, and it looks like there is a way to do it. Two help references come up - "Setting Options for rejecting calls" and "Blocking Calls." I just can't access them.
Thanks in advance!

From the Owners Guide http://www.palm.com/us/support/handbooks/treopro/treoproT850E_UG.pdf But I dont think its what your looking for.
Setting options for rejecting a call By default, when you reject an incoming
call, the caller is sent to voicemail. You can
change this setting so that, in addition to
sending the caller to voicemail, a text
message opens. This message contains
default text and is addressed to the caller
so that you can send the message right
away. You can also change the default text
of the message.
1 Press Start and select Settings.2 On the Personal tab, select Phone .3 Select the Advanced tab.4 To turn on the text message feature, check the Reject call with text
message box.
5 (Optional) To change the content of the message, select the text in the box and
enter the text you want.6 Press OK .

ATT data setting for Palm Treo Pro

I can no longer access the internet with my Palm Treo Pro. My service provider is ATT and they were not able to provide me with the data settings. I have searched high and low but haven't been able to find them anywhere - I'd appreciate any help. It is a huge pain only being only to access internet/email at wifi hotspots!

Generically, your current settings should be here:
Start > Settings > Connections tab > Tasks tab > "Manage existing connections"
I am a Sprint customer, so don't know what yours should say. Did they walk you through re-creating your "Modem" connection in this dialog?

Treo Pro Error Message 530 5.7.1 Relaying not allowed cannot send Email from pop acct

I just purchased the treo pro thru Sprint. I love the phone I just cant seem to figure out the proper settings for my outgoing POP Email acct. Every time I set up the settings properly and attempt to send an email I get an error message "530 5.7.1 Relaying not allowed". I get this message with the outgoing server set to smtp.sprintpcs.com and i receive this error message through an "undeliverable" Email in the same account I am attempting to send from. When I have the account set to my ISP's outgoing server mail.optonline.net it will only send email if I have my device set to WIFI mode..... Any ideas? Thanks.

P.s. I read in another posting where it advises to change the outgoing port # from 25 to 587. This sounds very familiar to me because when I recently set up my blackberry I believe cablevision advised me to do that exact modification. Now here is the million dollar question. How do you change the port #'s on the treo pro?
Try adding it to the server name, e.g.: smtp.provider.com:587

Cannot send email with Palm Treo Pro

Hi,
We have a Palm Treo Pro that was previously configured to sync with exchange 2003 and at the same time also had an IMAP email account setup for another email address. We have since removed the Exchange email account and only have the IMAP account configured. Since removing the exchange account we can no longer send email from the phone, but can receive fine. The error we get when trying to send is listed below.
"The message(s) could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage and that you account information is correct then try sending again"
The connection is fine because we can receive email and browse fine. The account information is also correct. We are using the SMTP server settings for the phones provider and that requires no authentication. I have also tried a different SMTP server with the appropriate user credentials but still get that message.
I have contacted the phone provider (Telstra) but they were no use.
We did have to load on a self signed certificate to get the exchange email working and I dont know whether this is causing any issues.
If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated

Treo Pro No Vibration on any setting

About a week ago my Treo Pro stopped vibrating entirely.The phone will not vibrate when the switch is set to silent, or with ringer on, or for text messages, or during the phone boot up. When it's set to ringer the sound notification works properly.
I've checked all the settings and they are correctly set to vibrate on incoming calls. I just performed a hard reset and went to factory settings and this still did not resolve the issue.
Has anyone else had this issue? Any known solutions?
Should I be requesting an RMA for this?
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

If you are having the issue after the hard reset, it looks like the Treo may need to be repaired.
You can call the Palm smartphone support line to setup a repair. Here is the number. 1-877-426-3777.
For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

Treo Pro locking on incoming call

My Treo has the habit on "locking buttons and screens" on incoming calls. If I don't answer quickly, nothing works anymore and the call is abandoned. Quickly means less then 10 seconds!
Is there a way to stop this from happening?
I've went through all settings, but nothing seems to prevent this from happening. I have the impression it's getting worse.
Post relates to: Treo Pro T850U (Unlocked)

Thank you, for that information.
Be sure that your SIM card is updated for 3G, also that your network settings is been updated as well. The network settings is something you would need to talk to your carrier about. The term to use is called reprovision. Basically they remove your account from the network and add it back in with updated settings and if the setting where correct but it should resolve any other issue like if the settings were corrupted.
If you do not want to talk to your carrier or this does not resolve your issue the next step is to hard reset the device.
Here is the instructions to hard reset if you need them.

Unable to get Data Connection on Treo Pro after Flying (Sprint)

I got my Treo Pro a few weeks ago and have really had no issues. It has been a great phone, but I just ran into an issue I cannot explain.
I had to fly from Mpls to Miami and put my phone in "airplane mode" when the flight started. When I landed I took the phone out of "airplane mode" and was able to get voicemail and make calls. However, when I tried to get email or open a browser session the phone kept giving me an error. It was trying to dial #777 to begin a data session (I think) and said it was unable to make a connection. I removed the battery and forced the phone to reboot and everything work just fine.
Someone I traveled with suggested I give it some time to "sync" up with the network, so on the return trip I just let phone continue to try and establish a session for about an hour. After an hour with no email I got frustrated and rebooted the phone... again everything worked just fine. Am I going to need to reboot this phone every time I travel? Is there something I am missing here?
Is anyone else seeing this? Is it a Sprint Issue? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
That's strange and I've never heard of this issue. I usually don't jump to this method of troubleshooting right away but I do not have any other idea to resolve this issue. Try to do a hard reset on the device. A hard reset will erase all data on the device and restore settings back to default. Be sure to back up all data on a computer to Outlook via Activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC). For further information and instructions on hard resets please visit kb.palm.com and look up article number 43146 in the solution id search field.
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Washed out background image on Treo Pro

Hi:
When I set my background image on my today screen (check the box in settings, browse to image - use 320x320 resolution) I get a "washed out" version of the image regardless of its original color, tone or intensity. Images from the preinstalled themes are fine - vibrant and clear - but the user set images are very light (almost like a 50 percent transparency in Photoshop for example). I have tried both .jpg format and .png. Backlight settings do not cure this either.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi Again:
Upon further investigation, I have discovered that the options for setting background and transparency levels is found through the pictures and videos explorer not the file explorer.
As suggested I have set the transparency to 0 and the image (Crab Nebula through the Hubble space telescope) is as bright and vibrant as it should be.
Thanks again for the direction - it's much appreciated.

Backlight won't stay on - Treo Pro

The backlight on my Treo Pro will not stay on, unless I hold down the middle Palm button with extreme ammounts of pressure. The backlight settings are set to work but it does not work. I need help I've tried everything including talking to the support chat, AND I have googled it and can not find it.

The screen dims, or the keyboard backlight goes off? Or both?
There is a little program you can install that lets you control the keyboard backlighting. It's called KeyLight, and you can find it here:

Space button on Treo Pro (sprint) takes me back to Home

Hello,
I just had an odd thing happen yesterday. When I looked at my phone, some settings were changed - my digital clock display for time got set to analog. I switched it back thinking it wasn't a big deal. Anyway later when I try to text, every time I hit space after s set of letters it will exit Messaging and take me back Home. I can press space multiple times, but if it comes after I start typing any letters, after the 3rd letter, it will exit. I also tried the transcriber and other input methods and it does the same. So somehow the Space key in messaging has been changed. I tried a battery pull and it didn't resolve the settings.
Is there any way to resolve this by not having to Hard Reset?
Thank you

Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums. Unfortunately the only option here is to do the hard reset. Be sure to sync first as this will totally remove all data from your device. If you need instructions go to this link.

Internet on Treo Pro (GSM) not working

If I want to access the internet to browse webpages on my Treo Pro, I do not get anything while connecting through GPRS. When connected through Wifi it does work. I think it is not the internetconnection itself since I do receive my e-mails through GPRS; it does connect without problem. However, while browsing the internet internet explorer hangs while trying to find a webpage. What can be wrong?
Post relates to: Treo Pro T850U (Unlocked)

I'm having the same problem and have asked for a new phone. I worked with tech support with Bell, did hard resets twice and they even took me off their system and put me back on ... all to no avail. The internet is not working. If my Treo Pro is sitting on the cradle, connected to my PC, the internet works fine, but when I take it off, an error message says, "Cannot Connect: Cannot connect wth the current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings." The tech people told me to go to settings and manage "My Work Network / Manage Existing Connections." There, all I do is make sure the number is #777 and that's all. After a hard reset, it clears this connection setting. So I can still not connect to the internet unless it's connected to the PC via the USB cable / cradle. Something else must be set up wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Email setup on Treo Pro

I live in Australia and use the carrier Telstra but there are no aussie support forums.
I have set up my email for my Internode Pop 3 account the same way I did for the old Palm Centro and as per instructions on the Palm site. The Palm Centro worked fine but I cannot get email with my Treo UNLESS I also have my wifi on and near an access point. Just trying to get it through the phone as I did with the Centro does not work as keep gettin g"error synchronising" as soon as I hit send/receive. I assume it is probably something simple I am doing wrong given that the actual settings work through wifi but Telstra are hopeless and really no one seems to know anything here about this particular model. I use WAP as my network as I did previously but not sure if I should be using another network eg My ISP? Realise many of you would have no experience with Telstra but any advice appreciated.
Post relates to: Treo Pro T850U (Unlocked)

The Australian support number - depending on where you call from - is either continuously busy, or is 'out of service'.
Given that it's no longer listed on the Palm page, I'm going with the latter.
I tried contacting the US via live chat, but they absolutely refused to help me because I was supposed to be using Australian support options, so, yet again, no help.

Post relates to: Treo Pro T850 (Sprint)
As stated in a previous post above, you will need to change Palm Desktop's sync settings to Microsoft Outlook.
The Treo Pro uses Microsoft Windows Mobile as its operating system, and is designed to sync with Outlook, and not Palm Desktop.
If you don't have a copy of Outlook on your computer, then it will have to be purchased.
There is a "switch" in Palm Desktop that will tell your old phone to start syncing with Outlook. Start Button/All Programs/Palm/PIM Conduit Sync/Sync with Outlook. Once you've activated this switch, all your data will migrate to Outlook, and the Pro will automagically find it there when you do your first ActiveSync.
