Cellular Phones/CECT A88
Expert: Roberto Serrano - 6/26/2008
QuestionI purchased this phone recently and love it! My question is if you have setup information for use on T-Mobile's network? I seem to have the voice working for placing and receiving calls, but I am having trouble setting up the SMS, GPRS for wi-fi and e-mail to work properly. Also if you were not aware I will share this. To setup ringtones they have to be downloaded in the format MP3, midi, wma, etc. and then located in the correct folder on the phone when you add the ringtone. Hope this was helpful and thank you for your time.
