I unsuccessfully tried 3G with T-mobile on my last phone (Sony Ericsson K850). My girlfriend tried it on her phone(Sony Ericsson K850i). No good. My phone would not ring on incoming calls, making callers redirect to voice mail immediately. I would get network busy when dialling out and SMS message would fail (this is with full signal). T-mobile support (after much effort and recoding of every incident, which was all the time the phones were on 3G setting) told me that these phones were not entirely compatible with 3G. I believed them. The problem was solved by setting my phone to 2G! No problem, didn’t use the web much on those phones.

So when I upgraded to the latest KU990 phone with full web browser capability, not to mention built in YouTube application I did not give 3G capability a second thought. Surely T-mobile provides 3G for this phone, I mean I am paying for it have just bought a phone built specifically to use it, so naturally did expect it!

No. New phone, same problems. That leave one point of failure T-Mobile. Basically T-Mobile cannot and do not provide a reliable 3G service. As their solution is ‘set your phone to 2G’ every time I complain no matter where I am or what phone I am using.

My solution: return the phone and cancel my contract. My advice to anyone else, use a network that does provide the 3G service. I believe 3 do! Don’t get a LG Viewty till LG provide some kind of support for it!

Just received one of those annoying scam ‘You’ve won loads of money’ letters. I am surprised that they are still trying it over snail mail, but I guess we are all becoming more savvy to online and email scams.

 

The letter appears to come from ‘Euromillones lottery primitiva s.a’ and goes something like…

Which and where should you create your new blog space. Here or www.MySpace.com or www.blogger.com or … on it goes.

Don’t be tempted to typing in www.spaces.com as that one of those infuriating search re-feeding sites.

I presume this is the least known of the services, but because it uses your MS Passport, I found it easier to get set up on. It also seems to have less porn or advertising masquerading as blog, however I am sure that will rapidly change.

 

Looking through the huge amount of rubbish being put on site, it made me wonder who is going to read this. If you do read this, please leave a comment of how you came across this, and why you read this far. I would really like to know.

 

Do we all want to be heard? Is this an attempt at our 15 mins of fame? Do we want our comments to be picked up by a search engine…why? Do we gauge our popularity by number of clicks? I have to say I am not sure why I am writing this. I hope it’s just to see what it’s all about, but I am also afraid that there is some small feeling that I know what I am talking about and that you should all listen!!

 

Who reads this shit anyway. The only blogs I seem to read are those of very helpful developers and programmers who are willing to explain how to do something. To them I am truly grateful. I will be including some of these very informative blogs on my links listing etc..

It is to that group that I hope to join. Give a little back, join and create some knowledge threads and maybe learn something.

 

Not me. So this is the end of my first blog.

 

…and what is this Blog…she needs help or I have missed something?
