Treo 750 & SIM Card

I just bought a used Treo 750. When I plug in my SIM card I get an error that says my SIM is locked, the code was put in wrong 4 times and I need to wait until the timeout is over before trying again. I never put in a code though, I can't get to a place where I can put in my code, and my wireless provider is clueless.
Please help.

Thanks for the response, legendeld.
Yes, I am using a 3G SIM card. I did do a hard reset and came up with the same thing. I am going to try to take the thing in to my wireless provider today, but honestly, I think I got jacked. Any other suggestions are welcomed.

Is it really possible to upgrade from a Treo 650 to a Treo 750?

I am not a very happy customer at the moment, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from my old Palm Tungsten to a Zire, then to a Cingular Treo 650, combining three devices into one. I have since discovered that the Treo 650 seems to have a faulty transmission mode, as I can rarely be clearly understood by whomever I call. Am on the second (or third, I have lost track) and continue to have the same problem. I get five bars of reception but can't be understood on the other end. A bit of a problem when one is trying to call 911. Am constantly told I am "breaking up". The repair shop says it "Can't duplicate the problem". OK, then I do not want to give up all the info I have stored in the fool thing, and the 750 seems to have a different system, so I thought I would try that. All the stuff I could find seemed to indicate it wouldn't be a problem to upgrade. When the 750 arrived, I tried to install the software from the CD on my Windows XP computer. No dice. Setup encounters an error and closes. Can't even look at the files, because setup tries to run any time I access the CD. From any drive. Gave it to my girlfiend to check on her computer, and the CD seemed to run fine. Other CDs work just fine on my computer. Must be some kind of conflict, but what? Tried calling the AT&T number that suggested they could help with setup, and was first connected to the business center, they routed me to the laptop center, who routed me to the network center, who said they would have to bring in the Palm customer service and connected me to a Mac guy that dumped me back to a menu that took me to someone for whom English is a second language with whom I was trying to communicate over a very poor satellite connection. They made no sense anyway. telling me first that I couldn't have two desktops running (wrong, my girlfriend has my old Zire and the CD worked fine) and then insisting that the serial number on my device had to start with a P, when it clearly does not have any alpha characters in it. Gave up on that route of assistance. Managed to get the new ActiveSync installed from my girlfriends computer over the network. Great. Now let's get my 650 synced with Outlook (which I have not used at home) and see if we can move on. Nope. First I have to update Outlook 2000 from the old Win98 to my current XP. Find the old CD, and square that away. OK, now sync to Outlook. Nope. The sync program gives an error, saying it will only sync with Outlook 98, 2000, and XP(2002). Good grief. I have Outlook 2000, and the software apparently does not recognize it. If the Palm doesn't work, there is no reason for me to keep this phone, and I am very close to returning it and abandoning the Palm entirely when I upgrade to something that works, although I dread re-entering all that information.

Thanks for the feedback. Today I installed an Enterprise version of Office 2007 I purchased a while back, but had not yet installed. Microsoft presented a few challenges, but they were quickly resolved. I then downloaded the appropriate conduit from Palm, and synced the 650 with the handheld overwriting the computer. Then used Active Destop to sync the 750. Satisfied I had moved as much info as possible, I called AT&T and had them move the phone number to the new Treo.
Bonus! When the guy at AT&T called me on the new phone to verify it, he said it sounded better than my landline.
Sorry for the streaming paragraph. When it is late I tend to write like I think.

Problem with syncing Treo 750

I just got an AT&T Treo 750 and am trying to set it up for syncing with my disktop computer running Windows XP Pro, SP3.
First, I am not an Outlook user, but figured out that I had to install that software to use ActiveSync. Second, I am not planning on using my 750 for email, and am only interested in syncing my Contacts, Calendar, and Tasks. It appeared that I did have to set up the 750 for email to get thngs started with ActiveSync, so I did that, too. Now when I attempt to sync I get this MS message:
Cannot syncronize with the Outlook profile you are using, because a different profile was previously set up or the profile is password-protected. Please open Outlook using the appropriate profile. Support Code: 8503001f
What do I need to do to get the 750 and my computer to sync?
Second question: Is there any other syncing software I can use other than Outlook?
Thanks - John

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. If the data is gone from your 750 and was never in outlook there is nothing I can do . But if you have your old device and are using Palm Desktop 4.1.4e we can get the data back to outlook so you can sync your data back to the 750.
Post back if you do not have Palm Desktop 4.1.4e
If you do great. All you need to do is go to Start-->Programs/All Programs-->Palm/Palmone-->PIM Conduit Sync--> Sync with Outlook. If it says you are already to sync with Outlook then good if not let it do its thing. After this what you need to do next is right click on the Hotsync Manager go to custom then click on Calendar and select change then select handheld overwrites desktop. Do the same for contacts, tasks, and memos.
Post back if you have more questions.

ActiveSync won't detect my Treo 750

Help!!
I started with Windows Mobile 5 before with Activesync 4.2 and it worked just fine.
a year ago, I updated my palm with WM 6 and Activesync 4.5 and it worked just fine.
Recently, I have got new laptop from my company and try to re-install activesync.
During the process, I accidentally deleted the connection in my palm and everything is gone!!!
I tried to install activesync 4.5 in my new laptop and try to connect them, however, activesync won't detect my device. It did not even charge my mobile.
Curious enough, I tried to connect it with my other laptop at home (using Activesync 4.5) and it did not detect the device as well. Running out of idea, I removed Activesync in my home laptop and install Activesync 4.2. Try to connect and it worked!!! However, an error message came out saying that I need to have ActiveSync 4.5 to synchronize with WM 6.
I uninstall the ActiveSync 4.2 and install 4.5 in the laptop and try to synchronize again. But this time, same situation happens again where Activesync did not recognize my device!!!
What to do, I am running out of idea. Help me please...

I went through all the recommended steps I found online and spent 2 hours with palm support and 1 hour with Dell support and still was unable to connect my att palm treo 750 using activesync when I had successfully done so in the past. I am using a treo 750 with winmobile 5 ver and activesync 4.2 connecting to win XP pro. I would see the phone in my device manager but it would not connect. This is what I discovered that fixed my problem and not just on my Dell computer but another computer I have as well. I would go into the phone to Start/Settings/Connections Tab and found USB to PC and check the box to allow advanced connections. I would then remove the battery. unplug the USB cable and reinstall the battery. After phone boot up, plug usb in and attempt connection again and it would fail. Again open on the phone the Start/Settings/Connections Tab and found USB to PC and uncheck the box to allow advanced connections. If connection fails (it probably will) pull battery from phone and unplug USB. reinstall battery to reboot phone then plug the USB cable back in. My device would again connect.. This needs to be done every once in a while because of the buggy phone and/or activesync software. I hope this helps anyone and prevents them from wasting as much time as I have on keeping an otherwise good phone in sync with an xp computer. Peace and long live a free internet and quality software....

Sync Windows Mobile Treo 750 with Vista 64 bit, FINALLY DID IT!

I have just spent 3 hours trying to set up sync between my Treo 750 and my new Vista 64-bit computer. Here's what I learned:
You have to download the Windows Mobile Device Center and its update (that's why some people felt they were downloading twice). Even after the second download, it still didn't work, so I was told to uninstall both, then I was directed to the following link, where it only had to download once -- http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx
Once I did that, I kept getting an error message that my device was not recognized, and the mobile device center
said the device was not connected (and the proposed solution on the computer was to replace the device). I tried the things that others have mentioned on this forum, but it still did not work. After talking with AT&T, they suggested I do a soft reset on the phone. That is what finally worked for me EXCEPT that each time my phone "timed out" (the display went blank), it would say it was not connected again. I finally kept touching the screen so the display would not go blank. Another option is to change the amount of time it will stay on before timing out, which I may do if this continues to be a problem when I sync in the future.
I hope this information helps someone else along the way. It has been quite a frustrating process, as are many other things when transitioning to a new computer.

Cannot select HTML message format in Active Sync - Treo 750

Hi -
When I configure active sync in Treo 750 device, I can select the message format as HTML but after the first sync the message format reverts to Plain Text, and it's now grayed out!
I would appreciate if anyone have a solution for this.

Very Delayed Update:
Whenever I upgraded my Treo 750 to WM6, I found in PROGRAMS "Proxy Manager" which is nothing but a box to select to "Force AT&T Proxy".
Whenever I have established an ActiveSync connection via Bluetooth with my internet connected laptop, I simply Un-Select the "Force AT&T Proxy" and any program (IE, Google Maps, email Send & Recieve, etc.) use the ActiveSynce Passthough.

Problem with Activesync on treo 750/outlook

I've always had problems trying to sync via usb since I purchased my 750 12 months ago, although this time I'm unable to sync at all after 4 days of trying. the xp pro sp3 side seems ok (it tries to sync but cant) any ideas please Taffy
Post relates to: Treo 750 (Cingular)

Have you tried another USB port?
Another thing to try would be to uninstall ActiveSync, delete the Microsoft ActiveSync folder under program files then reinstall activesync and try to sync again. (Trying both with and without Advance networking checked.)

Palm treo 750 os required

i have a palm treo 750 unlocked
recently i updated it to windows mobile 6.5
and i am in problems with it
i want to reset it to wm6
pl send me the original os link

1. There was never an *official* WM 6.5 update for any Treos.
2. Have you tried a hard reset?
3. Are you sure its the OS, not an application?
4. I see disclaimers left and right on hacking-related apps, sites, etc.
5. Try the 750's Palm support page, maybe an update will help.
webosnation.com is another option for help.

Palm treo 750 will not pair with Motorola H500

I followed all directions and the Palm recognized it but refused the passkey (0000) which was in the instructions. Now it won't recognize the device at all. Help!
Post relates to: Treo 750 (AT&T)

I have no other Bluetooth devices at all and nothing will pair with it and I followed the directions to the letter as have several other knowledgeable people, one being the AT&T tech in the store. You say the connection is locked to the last device paired. Is it possible that it's locked on the device even though the passkey didn't work? Can it be in some kind of limbo - recognized but not paired and the connection is locked? I don't know all the technology about that - but something happened when I tried to pair it the first time - it recognized it just fine and then rejected the passkey and it won't pair with anything, even a Palm earpiece. Of course, if that were the case, any of the 3 master resets I have performed should have cleared that huh? There are no devices listed and both devices are fully charged. The ebayer who sold me the phone is willing to let me return it so if you have any other ideas, please let me know. Thanks.

Someone could help me to resolve I don't know how it's happened because I don't modified anything before !
Thank's and I appologise for my poor english
[email protected]
Post relates to: Treo 750 (Cingular)

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
You can try a hard reset to resolve this issue. A hard reset will erase all data on the device and restore settings back to default. For further information and instructions on resets please visit kb.palm.com and look up article number 43146 in the Solution I.D. search field.
Once a hard reset has been completed successfully and the device is restored, see if you are still experiencing the same problems with the microphone. If the problems still exsists you have a hardware issue and you will want to seek repair or replacement methods.
I hope this information is useful and please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Treo 750 syncing w/ Windows Vista 32bit

I have a Treo 750 that I had synced with windows xp. Ever since I "upgraded" to windows vista I have not been able to sync. The computer won't even recognize the phone as connected. Here is what I have and what I have tried already. I have, as mentioned, the Treo 750 running windows mobile 5.0/ the laptop was running xp which I had no problems setting up and syncing. I now have window vista 32bit I guess since when I tried downloading WMDC 64bit it wouldn't support the download, so I have WMDC 32bit. When I downloaded WMDC the treo was connected through a usb cable. I have uninstalled and re-installed WMDC several times. Sometimes the device manager will not recognize the usb cable and sometimes it does. When it does recognize the cable it shows a bluetooth symbol and says everything is working properly but when I open up WMDC I am not connected, if I push the sync button nothing happens, if I unplug the usb cable and replug the device manager then will no longer recognize the usb cable. I have also tried everything on the support boards, help forums, you name it I have tried it except a hard reset which I don't want to do until I sync all my info first. Oh yeah the whole reason I am so desperate to sync my phone after such a long time is because my phone constantly freezes up as if I have to much going on which I don't. I have cleaned out every program not necessary so I have tons of memory, so that is not slowing down or freezing my phone. I basically have to soft reset my phone after I do or run 3-4 different applications including phone calls. ANYONE PLEASE HELP EITHER OF THESE TWO PROBLEMS BEFORE MY GIRLFRIEND DUMPS ME FOR SPENDING SO MUCH TIME ON THE COMPUTER TRYING TO FIGURE THIS STUPID THING OUT. THANKS DAVE
Post relates to: Treo 750 (AT&T)

Yeah I have tried that already no luck. Here are some other things that I forgot to mention. I have another laptop that is running windows xp, this laptop has never been synced to anything. I downloaded Microsoft Activesync but it will not connect to that either. The difference with this computer is that when I plug it into the USB port it makes a sound and when I push the usb sync button it makes a beep followed by another beep. Lastly I have another Treo (my girlfriends) that when I first tried to sync to WMDC it did not connect but after running troubleshoots I got it to work on both computers. It is so frustrating.

IPad 3 Headset (Jack?) issues

Figured I would see what anyone else thinks. I consider myself to be pretty darned knowledgeable about iDevices. I have been inside iPhones, iPod touch, iPads. I can normally fix things easily. This one has me a bit worried
I bought an iPad 3 when they were released. I bought it at Walmart for some odd reason (never again). So when I checked out, the woman asked if I wanted to buy the protection plan. I said no, because I always get applecare+. She replied that it was the same as applecare, and I told her that I doubted it. I said that if I have an issue with my ipad through applecare, I just get a new one. She said you get the same thing here, but instead of driving 2 hours or shipping it off, you can come in here and get one. I decided to try it, and needless to say, it was not anything close.
The headphone jack on the iPad started doing something where when a set of headphones are plugged in, it would freeze up and then reboot, and get stuck on the Apple logo. Then it started ruining headphones within 2 weeks. No matter how many we bought, it would short them out or something.
So, I tried to take it back to WM, and they said they were not responsible, and that I needed to contact an outside source. I did, and they had me ship it off to be repaired. It came back, and you could tell that someone just like me had repaired. As a matter of fact, I could have done a better job
Never the less, it came back and the headset jack seemed to work. However, it is already starting to do the same thing. Assuming that they actually replaced it like they were supposed to, then I assume that it has to be something else. Since it worked at first, I guess they did replace it. I can replace the jack again, and just see, but I feel there might be another problem elsewhere.
Moral of the story, is DO NOT BUY WALMART extended service plan. I think that the lady was not lying to me, but ended up selling me the wrong plan. After some research, it is apparent that Walmart has 2 levels. First level is the service plan ($79), and then a replacement plan ($99 I think).
I will be fixing it this time
