Ok I just got my self this wonderful machine. A Cingular 8125 and i LOVE IT!
except of course all this cingular logo's and pictures on my phone.
Anywhere from turning it on, to the background, to calling.
I live up in Alaska and there is no cingular or I would use them. The only cell phone company that is good is called CelloneUSA.com.
My phone info is:
ROM version: 2.25.11.1 WWE
ROM date: 5/11/06
Radio version: 02.25.11
Protocol version 4.1.13.12
extROM version 2.25.11.102 (i changed the boot splash)
My question is I love the programs on my phone. From the whole MSOffice (word, outlook, excel, access, powerpoint) all where defaulted on this bad boy.
But I'm getting real tired of seeing this orange man everywhere i look.
I was reading about ROM updates and changing this, but I think my Radio rom is good (not sure if it can get any better). And not really sure what will happen to my programs if i do a rom update/ hard boot.
I don't mind lossing my contacts and my information that i put in the phone. But I do mind lossing my programs that came with the phone.
Any help / information would be greatly appreciated. because I dont want my new $400 phone become my next paperweight like my alienware laptop (grrrr, different story). However I would try anything to get rid of the orange man. I would love to find a way to change the color scheme of the phone also. (I'm a little bit lazy, so a premade one would be perfect)
I thought this phone had windows on it. :p You know right click and go to themes and change the looks.
Also i wish there was an alt-tab function, and an ability to open up more then 1 IE browser, and some how to update windows media player to recognize avi files, mpg files, java would be nice, and why can i not install anything with the *.inf?
I feel like such a nub (thats worse then a noob)
Like I said im new to the mobile PDA world. And any information would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
