select edit.

press view info (left soft key)
select Nam settings.
press Mobile Directory Number (MDN) until you get "edit" context menu.

i think MDN is always your phone number.
MSID can be or can not be your phone number.

Question for all those on TELUS networks...do you all have a "username/password" filled in for the #777 data connection? (I don't at all which is why I'm wondering...but it works just fine.)

I'm password/username free as well and it works fine

99.9% NO, if you have problems it does help.

K just checking...thought maybe that might solve the problem for the ones running into data connectivity problems. Just doublechecking...for those running into problems, do you still have problems with the STOCK TELUS ROM?

Never had a problem with stock TELUS ROM, have had some problems with No2Chem kitchen and Zero problems with dcd 2.1.0 - 2.3.1 Kitchen. Once I've had a problem with the stock TELUS ROM on PPC6700 (Apache). When I called Telus data tech support, they informed me that 99.9% NOT required but if your having a problem this may help. Especially if your using data outside your local calling area.

username:
areacodetelephonenumber@1x.telusmobility.com
or
areacodetelephonenumber@mb.telusmobility.com

password:
always your esn

It has something about transfering your device to the right domain and billing/accounting. At work I use a Bell Mobility PPC6700 phone only for accessing a 10.???.???.??? address that has satellite RTK timing file. As this device dials #777 it's transfer into a private network. The unit can't be used for surfing, just for this application.

username areacodetelephonenumber@?????.belmobility.com and password: esn
Without this information it dose not connect.

One thing I have noticed with some older/other CE ROMS is username and password are required. What happens is the phone dials #777 over and over.

Set username/password
1. START-> SETTINGS-> CONNECTIONS-> CONNECTIONS-> TASK-> Manage existing connections
2. Edit CDMA1X #777
3. NEXT-> NEXT until username/password
4. username: areacodetelephonenumber@mb.telusmobility.com (ie 1235550987@mb.telusmobility.com)
5. password: esndec (ie the number on the phone under the battery)

Going to WM6.1
1. Hard-SPL-240-MFG.exe
2. Titan_Radio_3.27.00.exe
3. Run dcd 2.3.1 Kitchen
4. Wait 5min
5. Dial *22803
6. 1 for english
7. 1 for program codes
8. Wait 5min
9. Dial *22803
10. 1 for english
11. 2 for roaming codes

Going to Original Rom
1. Titan_Relocker.exe (this restores original bootloader)
2. Telus_HTC_P4000_WM6_07252007.exe
3. Wait 5min
4. Dial *22803
5. 1 for english
6. 1 for program codes
7. Wait 5min
8. Dial *22803
9. 1 for english
10. 2 for roaming codes

WOW! This post has given me some hope again for using a WM6.1 w/ 3.27 radio ROM. A few days ago, I regretfully flashed back to an older ROM and had temporarily given up on all of this until there were further, more positive looking developments. I recall it did infact keep asking me for a username and password, and would redial #777 over and over and over... Also, the information for username and password you provided rings a bell. That phone number@mb.telusmobility.com looks very familiar. As a matter of fact, I just looked at my current (older style ROM) and in Device Information the "ESN" shows up, as well as "current username" (under "Version" in device settings). I can't say for sure, but I am pretty sure this informatin did NOT show up in my wm6.1 w/ 3.27 radio rom. I am going to try this right now and hope (and think it will) work. HLouie, thanks so much for this above post!

Telus has also been having connection issues the last 2 weeks.

Okay, so now that I had thought I had the final answer as to how to get data working on telus... I got greedy and flashed to NexVsion's hybrid rom as I liked the sound of all of the apps he had in there. Went and did this same process and it did not work. Figured no big deal, I'll flash back to DCD's telus rom. I first relock and go back to Telus' standard WM6 image to be safe. Go back to DCD's 2.3.1 rom, do everything the same and I cannot get data working again....... argh what the heck... I had it working.

edit: lol I do distinctly remember in the Connectivity Manager it saying TELUS and then Activesync right underneath it. Is it possible it was just using my laptop's internet connection as I had it plugged in via USB and connected with Activesync. Would DCD's 2.3.1 rom do that by default? If so, the fact that it said Activesync right beneath TELUS would lead me to believe I never had it fixed at all...
