Are there any other Canadians in here?? Specifically in Ontario or Toronto to be closer?

The t68i was just released last week from Fido, Rogers, Simpro and some others... so there will definitely be MANY more t68i users in Canada... just wonder how many will find this forum.

Yes, there are Canucks here. Check out the "Great White North" thread.

I'm located in Toornto and have a Rogers AT&T T68i. Great phone. I bought it largely because it works so well with Mac OS X.

Posted by DragonEye
I'm a Canadian too!!!!!!!! I've had my t68i phone for a 2 months now. Import from HK. Got the camera, a new t68 goldface plate and a data cable. Looking for an mp3 player and the jabra bt200 headset fro cheap. no anywhere in canada where i can get a good deal?

Posted by DragonEye
by the way..anybody know how to setup and email account for there phone in canada? i'm with rogers.... i got the WAP working but don't know how to do the email thing. I've checked the forms but i'm to dumb to understand what's going on.

Posted by cybertank
macfreak... good to see a fellow Torontonian in here. How are you connecting to the Mac? IR, Cable, or Bluetooth?


Posted by cybertank
Good question DragonEye... I just picked my phone up last weekend... still can't get the GPRS stuff working... I didn't get much in the way of instructions from Rogers.

Does anyone have a .pdf or something from Rogers explaining how to set up the Wireless Desktop services?

Posted by cybertank
Ahh... see DragonEye... you got me thinking about it. If you have Wireless Desktop all ready to go... Go to Web, and once connected, go to Portal/Email and it will say that it's emailing you the installer... you will get a message in about 5 secs that asks to install the software.

Posted by DragonEye
what is the rogers wap address??

Posted by cybertank
I don't know how to do step 7... Go to WAP services??

Everything else I have set... but don't see how to do the rest of your steps.


Posted by DragonEye
After entering all the CONNECT SETTINGS

leave that and go into WAP SERVICES. (the phone with the world behind it) in the main menu.

then continue..let me know if you need anything else

Posted by cybertank
Ah... That is WEB Services on my phone... and it only has Select Profile which has like 8 ROGERS profiles. There isn't anywhere in the menus for create, delete or even to modify them.


Posted by DragonEye
t68i???

Posted by DragonEye
what you can try is if you select a profile, click the option button and it should let you do some mod's i think? Do you haev a t68i? if so what version of software?

Posted by cybertank
How do I check the version?

Posted by cybertank
uuughh... and how do I change the title on the main screen?? I hate seeing Rogers AT&T all the time.

Posted by DragonEye
i don't know how to check the verison.. i just assumed your's is different because it says web services instead of wap???? was your bought in canada?? mine came form hong kong..anyway you can't get rid of the roger's at & t thing as far as i know....

Posted by cybertank
I just picked it up last weekend at Rogers AT&T...

Posted by DragonEye
If you bought it from Rogers then they shoudl tell you how to do it. Those Roger's People drive me crazy someitmes. YOu bought the phone from them and they can't give you the right info to hook up your wap... you should complain and get them to give you free unlimited wap for 6 months and hook it up for you.
i don't know how else i can help you but let me know.

A SPECIAL WANKER FROM OSLO

Posted by macfreak
Hey Cybertank,

I connect to my Mac (a Titanium powerbook running OS X 10.2.1) via Bluetooth. It's the only way So cool and fast I don't even have a USB cable adaptor for the phone. I haven't tried IR but that should work if you aren't running OS X. I've got the DLink USB dongle (via the AppleStore). I've synchronized with iSync (no problems - both iCal and Addressbook). My only disappointment is that I can't pick up a Rogers AT&T signal in my office so I can't use my Mac to control the phone (incoming and outgoing calls).

WAP works great but the plan I have only allows 150k a month and I've used 100K without even trying....

I also use the OS X BlueTooth File Exchange to upload files (like background pics - my current one is the Jaguar icon) rather than go to WAP sites as that saves a ton of data charges.

I haven't gotten .Mac email to work yet though.

There's a Mac-BlueTooth list (bluetooth-mac@lists.themacintoshguy.com ) you can subscribe to which is 70% about the T68i.....

Posted by Alezone
I need the pdf file~~~ I have no clue how to setup the WAP thing... tried to follow the steps listed above... but couldn't find the options that was referred to....

Help me out~ I'm from TORONTO and a Mac user too~

Posted by Alezone
Tried to setup everything again following the steps... but GPRS FAILED is shown everytime... what's wrong?

Posted by DragonEye
Hey,

That dude with the pdf file seemed to have disappeared. But i'll try to help you as much as i can. first what software version you using? You have to go into the service menu. Do a search to figure how I can't remeber. Something like left left right right *#..but use the search
Mine is RE006. I notroiced some new phones have web services not wap services? Have you signed up with rogers for the mobile interent plan? I did a master reset on my phone... first . I'll walk you through step by step again in a private message

dragoneye

Posted by DragonEye
The first verison I posted was kinda dodgey this is a more detailed version which should be more clear. I use an unlocked t68i from HK software RE006.

this is how i setup my wap

Go to CONNECT
1. go to "data comm"
2. go to "data accounts" and create an account called "rogers"
3. select GPRS data
4. enter APN goam.com or internet.com (i use goam.com)
5. User id is "wapuser1", password "wap"
6. Save it and select it again to edit it
7. Turn password request off
8. allow calls should be automatic
9. ip address should be blank
10. DNS leave blank
11. under advanced settings
authentication is set to normal
data compression is set to off
header compression is set to off
quality is set to precendence and subsricbed

go back to main menu screen and go to
1. WAP SERVICES
2. go to OPTIONS
3. got to WAP profiles
4.Add profile called rogers
5.under change homepage use
http://upaapps.goamerica.net:8582/start.wml
or
http://goamerica.net:9203/index.wml
you can change the name if you wish..but i left it as mobile internet.
save this to the current profile
6. Connect using rogers
7. IP address is 208.200.067.150
8.. user id and password are blank
data mode is conn oriented
9. security is on
10.show images set to on
11. response timer 150 secons


12. go to "My shortcuts" and make sure you cell # is in my numbers data and voice.

turn phone off.. leave it for a minute turn it back on.

try logging on the wap.esato.... it should say "Server identity could not be verified continue? keep pressing yes till you get on. it will also say "loading securely" if it is working.

and obvioulsy you need to subsribe to rogers' wireless service.

I can't get much more detailed than thatso i hope it works.. but let me know. You may wnat to try a master reset first... but that will erase all your phone numbers and mms and and other settings.

Good luck,
Dragoneye.

sorry was away for a few days.... dragoneye i sent ya the pdf, would anyone know how i can paste that file here somewhere? i feel bad whenever i can't help someone imediately... maybe i can post that file somewhere... have no clue how though.... and yes u do have to subscribe to wap services, but most providers i think will let you have a two month free demo, i know i got from rogers att here in canada i got 2 months free trial use, trick is i have to call them before it ends to cancel it, otherwise its automatically put on after that, after using it, for a month so far, i don't think i will be keeping it, gonna just use pay to use, means whenever i use it i pay, but the first month bill was huge, i hade $150 data use alone... thank goodness i have that month free!!! but this month i hartdly used it... i figures its cheaper to use the computer, through bluetooth, send and recieving things.....

Posted by cybertank
Dude... let me know what you are using Bluetooth wise on your computer. I just picked up a Billionton USB which is awesome, but I'm having trouble getting all the features configured... CRAPPY DOCS.


Posted by DragonEye
@Thanatos 808, thanks for the pdf, but how does the picture messaging work? are they're any settings? I've already downloaded the roger's settings from the wap but i still get an error.

Posted by gshanouda
DragonEye
Security has to be off, other ways it won't be connected.

Posted by Prom1
How come all of you are having problems with pictures over wap? Mms style? Someone should call customer service ask 2 speak to a manager and demand a solution from tech support and ims dept. Or ask the rep 2 either speak 2 mr. razon whom may be able to help, you. Hes in Toronto call center and old coworker...if unavailable get them to email him with your ban# and request. Hope that this helps.

Newfoundlander here! T68i running on Rogers GSM with GPRS, WAp etc. working. Aside from a couple of dead spots it works pretty good here in St. John's.

Posted by DragonEye
My works with the security on though. My WAP browser functions perfectly with the settings i've posted. It's just the picture email part that doesn't work.

Posted by Prom1
Hey Toothlessjon,

Did you know that GPRS from Rogers AT&T Wireless had their first GPRS/GSM tower in ST.John's Newfoundland in July 2001?!!! They did.


All of your on Rogers AT&T Wireless can you do me a favor??
Can you please access Scotiabanks WAP homepage and Bank of Montreal's Homepage and PM me WAP site address, Please?!!!! I really need it.

Thanks

Posted by DragonEye
