I bough my t68m unlocked. I was subscribed to Fido it works fine there, but I had to switch to Rogers AT&T because of corporation deal I got at work. Since then I can't make a clear phone call or receive a calls. I was with Rogers tech support everyday trying to fix the problem and finding out what could coz the problem. I been told to upgrade to t68i is the solution to my problem, I did so and it works better then it was. I also forget to say that I had to make the call 3 or 4 times before I got connected to the caller. What I am asking is if anyone who had the same problem how did you fix it and what did you do???
Please let me know or reply to me... I am really really stuck with this crab.

Doubt any1 has a solution yet, too new a phone on the network. But try those signal booster things you stick under the battery. Gimmicky but might help? Good luck! This post was posted from a T39

Hi there,

As Prom1 has told me before FIDO has a better GSM signal in the GTA. I tried it on the weekend unlocked t68i and the reception was better in a lot of areas. But have faith....I'm with Rogers and everyone tells me my phone reception bites the big one and it does. BUt this has caused my to constantly stare at my signal and in the last week it seems to be getting better. I guess they are developing rapidly. The other thing i find is that the signal is usally very weak indoors but fantastic in the open.... does being indoors obstruct signals that much?? my old cdma didn't seem to have the same problem?

About the signal booster, I have one and it works kinda.... it seems to give me an extra bar... the thing is when i have that extra bar i can hear the person well but they can't here me... but it does usually give an extra bar.


Does anybody know what GSM 850 is?? Someone told me that North America will be using that soon ??????

Just an observation, has anybody noticed that the Rogers At&t site stopped the adds for sending pictures using the t68i?? I guess they couldn't figure out how to do it and were getting to many questions so they had to pull the ads..... mwwhahaha maybe they should go ask FIDO for a helping hand.

Proud Rogers Network User, (ha)

well that is right they still have problem with the phone, they can't even get the e-mail system to work, I spend over 2hrs last time with the tech support to get my e-mail set but he couldn't get it working so he told me that he will put a service request for me and then they will contact me. so they didn't and I call them back after 2 days to check they told me they are facing a technical defecalties with the system and they can't get it working so as soon as it over they will call me. 3 weeks now and I haven't recived any call from them yet. so I guess they still have the problem. there service is getting better by the time so we just have to wait till it get fixed. and the thing is they make you signe a contrac so you have to pay for the shitty service while they are improving.. in the other word they make you pay for there engineer to fix there problem.

DragonEye:
After using GSM for 5 years in Europe, I was completely disapointed with the quality of the GSM networks in Montreal (both Fido and Rogers). I couldn't use my T39m in my apartement nor at work (the signal was too weak). The solution was to buy a decent CDMA with Telus... All my problems vanished just like that... It seems like it's better to use GSM in Europe and CDMA in North America. This is my advice to frequent travelers between the two continents.

tao980, I thought that CDMA wasnt available in Europe at all? That a simular version of CDMA in China & Korea exists, W-CDMA like version and CDMA2000 respectively. What service provider in Europe uses CDMA and in what country? Just curious, never been there.

I dont know whom had a similar problem with Network support with Rogers, but in one of my posts I did warn that your lucky if they do call back in 3 days.They barely call back other reps internally, hehe.

Anyhow sorry to hear that you didnt get better signal, and as I expected email directly into the email client of your T68i still isnt possible with Rogers, thought that they'd get this fixed by now. Guess that they should've kept the person that thought of the idea of selling this phone in the first place, and getting a dedicated team of Network Engineers to support an elite team of users to play with all features of the phone.That way supporting the functions of the phone would be beneficial to their customers, along with their customers incurring more $$ using the features of the phone on their network, but DUH. what do I know, I just worked for DCC/ICC (sorry internal jargon).

Never fear though they should have this solved by the end of December, I hope.
