Cingular runs on both 850 and 1900 and most areas have both. That means that P800 is compatible, but may not get excellent reception compared to a phone that has the 850 band. His ability to make and receive calls as well as receive SMS is proof that the phone is compatible.
There is entirely too much speculation over the 850 issue. People just assume that no phone will work, the entire purpose of a Tri or Quad-band phone is to ensure compatibility.

well i am currently with the att-wireless contract and they are trying to make me switch over to cingular. but i love my p800 so i asked them if my phone would lose reception if i were to switch to cingular and they (att-wireless/cingular) told me that i would probably need to get a new phone... shows how much those tech reps know. im stilll not sure if i should switch over to cingular or not....

There are plenty of people on this forum with unlocked Tri-band (900,1800,1900) phones that use Cingular. They are just trying to scare you into buying a new phone that they *officially* support.
I myself use Cingular, but I played it safe and bought a P910a

@armodrummer
Please let us know if the format worked.
I would have suggested both a master reset and formating the internal memory as well, but you may also want to consider trying to change the firmware if the format does not work.

Callate!
I have to wonder though...I dont know how this can happen AFTER a few master resets...I mentionned on another thread that before I sold him my phone, I had already done a master reset...maybe your hands ooze negative energy...or maybe it's just the Cingular SIM

P.S. Why u callin me @ midnight? hahaha
