hi guys,
I am new to this forum, as well as to T68i.
My bro-in-law has V60 and he lives in McCown and 14 th Ave and he finds the GSM signal is not that good even just outside his house. He also finds that it works fine here in Scarborough and TO.
I have gotten my t68i last week and it is working fine, may b/c I am in GTA mostly.
OK, since you guys are using Rogers, I would like to ask few questions here.
1) how can I change the banner of Rogers AT&T ( i was abe to change to Nokia 3360 with some code)
2) where did you unlock your phone
3) where can I buy RS232 cable to sync with my PC (any used one I can buy)
that is it for now

1) u cant change the banner with the t68i, i don't know why, but that's the way it is, or at least no one knows how.
2) u should ask rogers for the sim lock code thing via email or goto one of those small phone shops
3) they should have cables at some small shops as well, but i use a TDK bluetooth adaptor which is waaaaaaayyyyy better.

JwY,
thanks for your info.
for unlocking, did you get the sim lock number from rogers and you did it yourself? is that the number I have to enter for NCK or something? can you please outline the steps to unlock my phone?
ok, i want to experience the bluetooth too, how much the TDK adapter? is there anything else I have to buy? my PC is old, PII-350 with Win2000 pro. I need your help in this set up too, if you don't mind.
thanks

i haven't unlocked mine yet because i don't really need to right now.
the only problem with getting the NCK code is that i don't know if Rogers is willing to give it to u just like that. And u have to make sure u know what ur doing. If u want to play it safe, find a shop somewhere. Rogers charges $250 or something which is a total rip if they do it for u. U should email them about it first and ask for the NCK code. tell me if they give it to u.
i got my TDK for like $200 something at Pacific mall if u know where that is. it was expensive since it was imported from europe, but it's really easy to install, just download the latest software from their site and everything will work.

JwY,
I have the contact of a guy who does the unlocking thing. his rate is $40 for the T68i. The price is OK, but as you said, I don't have any need for unlocking right now.
Keep in touch. Merry christmas to all and happy new year. Don't drink and Drive!

I live in the Ottawa Area and the Rogers Reception is kinda spotty not terrible but pretty bad with the gsm. My own house which is downtown doesn't get reception.... They said they were sending someone over to check it out.... I'm not sure if they did yet hasnt been that long ago!

Rogers is crappy reception wise but fido is better but fido has ugly phones and rogers has not so ugly phones. I say buy a phone and use it for fido.
