okay so i have a blue angel ph20b and its for telstra...well it was until i flashed it with the wmo5 rom

Helmi_WM2k5_AKU3.2_32mb_v1.3.2_16mb_bitpool_32mbRa mdisk

that one to be precise.

anyway that thing has a folder in exrom/operators that is called

3-DUALBAND_ALL.sa

now i put that on the storage folder in the phone and ran it. it said it installed it n yeah watev. now i've been using a 3 sim in this device for ages, just its an inactive sim i only put it in so the device works n like its phone mode is off.

now i have another sim i put into this that is active, like i use this in a seperate phone, i put it in the blue angel in the hopes it'll let me turn phone mode on and use it as a phone.

well after installing that file above i tried it and....well nothings changes, i still cant turn on phone mode and use it as a phone.

can anybody advise me on how to, if its possible, get my blue angel to actively use this 3 simcard (as in 3/hutchinson the 3g network).

I have no idea if this device is network locked either, i.e locked to telstra, wen i try to unlock it with itsme's tool (just incase it is locked) i experience an error.

so yeah thats about all i know, all help is much appreciated :)

thankx (btw i love this forum and all the contributers you guys rule! if i wasnt so stupid with this stuff i'de help lol)

Check out the posts in the forum mate.. The Phone pin screen does not switch sometimes properly..

Just go to the menubar at the top, hit the phone icon with the X, hit settings, and then a pin screen will pop up!

Enter the pin and away you go.

(Actually... i removed the pin number from my sim card, coz it got a bit annoying after a while!)

greetz..

If it's a H3GUK SIM it WILL NOT work in the BA - end of story.

H3GUK make it so that their SIMs will ONLY work in 3G phones (otherwise the phone would roam onto O2/Orange and cost 3 money). Only the older SIMs work in 2G phones, and if 3 catch you they disable the sim and send you a nice, new, 3G only sim.

What I said is definately true for H3GUK. I'm not sure whats H3G's policies are in other countries though.

Can you not just boot up with no sim installed? I've done that before, it works OK as far as I remember.
