Tilt already coming named?

[spyderrtd]

Hi,

I'm new and I'm happy to be a member this site. I just received my new at&t tilt a couple of days ago. :) I installed the activesync software on my computer and connected my device via usb. When my device came up on my computer and I ran the short device installation my devices name was "Johnson" ... Is it suppose to come named already? Or would somebody have to had named it? Should I be alarmed? Did I get a used Tilt?

One more question, how do you delete the 10 songs that are already preloaded on the Tilt's memory?

Thanks everyone for your help. I'm so excited to have this phone. I can't wait to dive into it and do all the customizeing that I've seen. I hope to learn a lot from you guys and gals. :)

where did you purchase it? by default the activesync name should be something like ATT_TILT (im using a cooked rom so its something like HTC_TYTNII) so it sounds like its used..whats the call duration when you goto start>settings>device info>call duration tab ?

[spyderrtd]

The call duration is showing 0's all the way accross. I haven't activated the phone yet. It should be activated tomorrow. Could the call duration time possibly be reset?

When I first turned the phone on I did go through all the set up processes like if it were brand new ...

Is there a way to change the name?

Strange...unless you had active sync on your computer before?
Don't think you can easily reset the usage timer, even on a hard reset.
I just installed 6.1, and it didn't reset the timer.
Welcome to the club...lots of useful info around here.

where did you purchase it?

I bought it from newegg.com. I think they outsource though through a company called simplexity I believe.

Thanks reaper, that worked. :)

Thanks 007 for the welcome. Anything you could recommend that i could get started on?;)

If you haven't already, read the manual that is on the CD that came with your phone. That will always be the best place to start. Next, start browsing the forums and do some reading. After that, use the 'Search' feature to get to know what's out there and what you can do with your phone.

I've been lurking here for a couple of days, having just received my Tilt, but am finding this site to be invaluable. I also regularly visit mobilitysite.com, which used to be devoted to the Dell Axim I used to have. Quite a friendly bunch over there, just like we have here.

Awesome! Thanks for all the info and links everyone. Just from those two links I already have a bunch to research and figure out. :)
