Hey folks, I've got a three week old Cingular 6340i that for some reason
doesn't seem to want to go to Cingular GSM in a known good GSM area.  Of
course, there's no indication of this on the screen, but the phone is
greyed-out on forwarding fax calls, says MUTE instead of HOLD on ...

You need to be on a Gait plan for your gait phone to work .. a lot of people
think that by adding there sims card to a gait phone will add new service
areas .. it wont you need to be registered on the GAIT Roaming network . The
GAIT Network will work on Cingular and AT&T a GAIT ...

Can someone tell me why I get the hourglass on my Samsung SGH X427, as if it
is reindexing,  for at least a minute or more when I push the Names button?
It only happens the first time I turn the phone on and push Names. If I
select the Names button again without turning the phone ...

 Hello fine folks...I've noticed that when my phone is in analog mode, the
battery doesn't last as long, and it seems to warm up quite a bit...am I nuts,
or is that plausible? (have 6340i) Thanks,

Can anyone tell me if Cingular's GSM is 800 or 1900?  Is it the same system
wide, or area specific?  I am in Central Indiana, and it seems to be 1900,
but I can't get a straight answer locally.

I have a national plan with Cingular; my account is in SoCal. I've been in
Chicago the last week, and every time I turn on the phone or wake it up from the
screen saver, it's asking me if I want tp update the clock - EVEN THOUGH THE
CLOCK IS ALREADY UPDATED.

Both would be an upgrade from my Sprint Samsung SPH-A500 and weights don't
make a difference and their sizes seem pretty negligible compared to my
A500. And price isn't a factor for me.
I guess it boils down to which phone has the most fun factor. I'd like to be

can someone tell me which is the best samsung phone for Cingular? I've heard
of the 427 and the 307.  What are the differences and is one better then the
other?  Thanks.

I just purchased the Samsung X427 today to replace my V60i. I am not able to
receive called id name, just the phone number appears, not the name. I have
gone thru the manual and have not been able to determine how to change this
setting. Any help greatly appreciated.

Is there a quick way to check my minutes left balance with a Nokia
6340i, on the Superhome 300 plan?
Thanks.

From what I have read in this group Dallas is GSM 850 I think.  I also
thought I had read that 850 was the same at GSM 900 or I could be
mistaken?  If this was the case could a tri-band phone that included
GSM 900/1800/1900  be used here in Dallas our would I have to find a

I have alrady honoured the 1 year commitment with Cingular, and am
still happy with the service and coverage in my area, however the
folks do not want to unlock my phone. I have a couple of collegues who
just unlocked their phones from T-Mobile.

A question has been plaguing me this holiday season.  GAIT phones use
the ESN to authenticate with AMPS/TDMA, and the IMEI on the SIM to
authenticate with GSM.
Well, interesting thought.  If I activate a SE T62u on a national GAIT
