No Data, No Pic Msging, No Smartphone Plan
Okay so let me clarify these points before anyone asks.
Flight Mode is not on Wi-fi is not on Bluetooth is not on I have the Data connection set up as: Dialing #777 xxxxxxxxxx@alltel.net password: alltel Connecting through: Cellular Line I have arcsoft mms (latest, with all alltel settings) I have the latest DCD Carrier cab from alltel I have the latest PRL and PRI updates My MIP settings are correct Here is my device info: ROM Version: 3.08.666.1 Radio Version: 3.42.50 Protocall version: 7500B-SDCAAXAM-4350H Hardware version: 0003 PRI Version:2.01_011 Browser Version: MSIE 6.0 ESN: ******** Current Username: Blank (nothing there) ERI verison: Blank (nothing there) I know how to get into my EPST settings, and had to talk with alltel to get through manually changing all my MSID MNC and other settings. I do not have a smartphone plan, but i have unlimited txt, pic, and video messaging. I cannot download the msgs due to the fact that: When my phone goes to get a Data connection is dials...stays there for about 10 seconds, and says " Cannot aquire data connection blahblahblahBSBSBS." can someone help? I will gladly donate 5 dollars to the person who can figure this out for me. I've tried switching ROMS, from alltel's latest rom to DCD, to my own. no luck.

Re: No Data, No Pic Msging, No Smartphone Plan
just manually told them to activate my phone when i called them.
Okay, but doesn't most of the phones have data connections, too? My Alltel Scoop had data, so i could recieve my pic msgs, so why can't i do it now? |

Re: No Data, No Pic Msging, No Smartphone Plan
You don't have a data pan and the service your not getting is normal. picture messages require "internet service.
I don't see a problem.. RD |

why do u keep saying smart phone plan? is that how altell breaks things down? on sprint if you had a TP without a data plan, but with pic mail, your pics would come in fine... even if you didnt have a pic mail plan and no data plan youd still recieve the pics, but it would charge you by the k/b for usage once you open it.. |

Re: No Data, No Pic Msging, No Smartphone Plan
when i say smartphone plan, i mean data plan from alltel.
Thats what i was mainly concerned about though is the MMS. Just like a regular non-winmo or blackberry or palm phone, they all have data connections to get MMS and data (if applicable). I did not buy mine from the store or NIB, it was a used one from a friend in MN. It had Qwest on it, but i changed everything to the alltel settings. All of my mms settings are correct, and so are my data connection settings. Maybe it is because the phone was specifically set to qwest? Some internal thing maybe? |

Re: No Data, No Pic Msging, No Smartphone Plan
Is it possible that when your phone tries to connect(dials #777) and it hangs there for 10 seconds or so and gives you the "cannot connect" message, it is because the Alltel system is able to tell that you are using a phone that should be on a smartphone/data plan(Smart Choice Plan), and because it doesn't show that your on such a plan, it won't connect your data services for you?
Just a thought...not really sure though. -Keir-
