Help! SB X01HT Internet not working... please someone!

[quiksilver_blue]

Hi guys,

I've spent the last few days reading most of the posts on this forum. Thank you everyone for sharing your solutions.

I purchased a X01HT last week. The back says May 2007 batch.
This is what I did:

-I followed Pof's instructions to Unlock the phone. And I got all success msgs.
But I am confused b/c i read somewhere that there is still a SB sim lock b/c it doesn't detect a SB sim. So i have to do something else to fully unlock it?
-edited the ExtROM with Pof's instruction as well

-I flashed it to the newest HTC english ROM available on this site.

-Hard reset

-Used Htweak to unhide the ExtROM. it wouldn't let me delete those files... but installed the Softbank extROM files one by one according to the order on the config.txt


After the last step, the internet was working fine for like 10 minutes. Now it dosen't work, I keep getting the error msg "Cannot Connect. Dialed open.softbank.ne.jp The answering modem has disconnected....."

I can't get it to work again....

I have one more question. Softbank didn't give me an email address, so how am i suppose to email other people from other companies?

I am new to Japan, and somewhat of a phone enthusiast. If someone can help me out.. it would be great. thanks!

Are you sure you have followed this thread:

Is the phone part working?

Which is the radio version and bootloader you have now???

About Softbank email you need to create your account in MySoftbank website:
https://mb.softbank.jp/scripts/japanese/mysoftbank/index.jsp
Then click in オリジナルメール設定 (Original Mail Settings) and a popup appears. You must insert your phone number and the password you received from softbank in your first SMS. If you lost that message you have to ask them again...
You need to create also a MySoftbank web account (everything in Japanese ;) to check your bill and update optional services.

You are "very brave" to try everything without checking first the basic Softbank setup...

Yeah I followed the thread. I put my SIM from Hong Kong in the phone... and it doesn't seem to have any error msgs.

How do i check my radio version and bootloader? (sorry, im new to hermes)

My phone part works. I can txt other softbank ppl, but i guess not other companies.

The internet was working... it downloaded my hotmail inbox once.. and now that error msg won't stop.

I left the phone on in japanese... for a good hr before i flashed it... I didn't get a text. I guess i have to call them. Do i just set up the mail account in Outlook after i get everything?

Thanks in advance for the help.

For your internet connection try with this:

To use your softbank email, you need to install one application from softbank (but it is crap). I recommend instead MMS Lite... it is somewhere in the forum.

If you don't know the radio version... how do you know what you did was right???!!!

just letting you know that you can't send SMS to other carriers here in Japan. Only to other Softbank phones. If you want to, you have to send a MMS to the likes of DoCoMo or AU.

I gave up on it as its too hard to get working right!
