Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / ATT Wireless / April 2004Home display
I have a Nokia 6560 that displays "HOME" on the main display, not ATT WIRELESS. On my other phones the display changed to ATT shortly after I initially turned them on when new. This one has not changed, it's been over a month. ATT CS says it should change eventually but am having my doubts. Any ideas ? >Any ideas ? Why do you care? As long sa it says Home, you are in AT&T's territory in your home market. -- John S. e-mail responses to - john at kiana dot net > >Any ideas ? > > Why do you care?

Well, in my experience, seeing "home" on an AT&T phone generally means either the IRDB isn't updated, or it's programmed with a non-AT&T SID as it's home SID. This might just be a quirk of the 6560, however. My experience with AT&T is limited to Nokia 51xx, 61xx and 82xx phones from my TDMA "leftovers" collection. ;-) > > >Any ideas ? > > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > AT&T is limited to Nokia 51xx, 61xx and 82xx phones from my TDMA > "leftovers" collection. ;-) Not a new issue. Check ATTWS's user forums. Same problem with my S46. They spent a week trying to get it right -- "programming" on both ends -- and got nowhere. However, I only get "HOME" in TDMA mode. GSM says, "AT&T Wireless." Thanks for all the feedback, guess I'll just live with it. Pat > > > >Any ideas ? > > > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > and got nowhere.

They should do it without any issues usually takes less than 5 mins for it to change over. > Thanks for all the feedback, guess I'll just live with it. > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > "AT&T >> Wireless." Thanks, I'll give it a shot. > Go into an actual ATT Wireless corporate store and ask them to resend the > Over The Air signal to change the Alpha Tag.

Some people do not understand or know why their phone displays Home and not At&t or Att Wireless. Just because you think you know it all doesn't mean that all subscribers have an understanding of particular plans, Roaming and other important features. You get a lot more respect when you are not such a wisehead. Although it doesn't surprise me because most of your posts are of the same nature. Have a great day Ninny! > Most likely he cares because it's HIS phone and not yours. Some people do not > understand or know why their phone displays Home and not At&t or Att Wireless.
