I've looked on line, but they all seem to be refurbished. Any suggestions.

I just bought the samsung soul u900 and as you can tell from the thread title, it is a euro tri band phone. I was just wondering if there is any way to make the range on the phone better or hack itto also use 850Mhz. I read somewhere that there is a way to do this on Motorolas.

I've got an unlocked nokia 6555 (3G model unlike the canadian nokia 6555 carried by fido). the rogers settings for mms and internet and apn access point have been entered and the phone can send/receive messages, get on the internet, but cannot display mymobilehomepage.rogers.com (this is necessary to download the software necessary to use the phone for mobile TV/internet).

Why is it that only this web page cannot be displayed? (mymobilehomepage.rogers.com)

Any ideas? ]]> Mobile Phones xrayali http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=73003 http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=72375&goto=newpost Tue, 25 Mar 2008 22:27:50 GMT So I heard they have a 7$ plan that gives you unlimited browsing on your 3g phone. I don't really like any of the phones that they offer. So does anyone know what kind of phones they support?

For example 3g HTC's and such.

Also if they are supported would they be categorized as blackberries/pda's hence subject to a data plan or would they be categorized as a normal phone and with a 7$ unlimited browsing plan? ]]> Mobile Phones kaywalker http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=72375 http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=72112&goto=newpost Fri, 14 Mar 2008 22:25:03 GMT Two weeks ago I received a call from Fido, asking me how satisfied I was with my services.

He then proceed to offer me a $5 discount on my regular plan and a free new phone. I specifically and explicitly told him that I don't want to be bind into any contract, since I may be moving out of province/country within 6-8 months. His reply to me was: "It's not a contract. I just need your word to agree that you will stick with Fido in the next 24 months."

I repeatedly asked him to make sure that I won't be bind to any contract, and he gave the same line. I finally agreed, and my new phone was delivered to me the next week. Yesterday, I just received a letter from Fido, saying that my new "agreement" has started from March 2, 2008 and will end on March 2, 2010. And there will be up to $400 cancellation fee (plus applicable taxes) if I cancel my "agreement" before March 2010.

Today, I called a Fido rep. He explained to me that what they're doing/offering is not a contract, since I didn't have to sign it. They call it an AGREEMENT. I explained him my case, and all he said that I can do is to return the new phone before March 18 (15-day period) to have everything reversed back.

I feel it's such a dirty trick . I clearly told him that I didn't want to be in a contract. But of course, to Fido, a binding 2-year agreement is NOT considered a contract.

If you receive an offer from Fido, be aware that if you "agree" on anything, it can count as a Fido Agreement, which binds you into a contract that you don't have to sign. ]]> Mobile Phones cis http://forums.canadiancontent.net/showthread.php?t=72112
