Another Sanyo 8100 call timer question....

I know about ##786. But this only shows the lifetime call timer. Is there a way to reset this so I know my usage for every bill cycle? Also, It shows the lifetime data usage as a certain number (ex. 564) then K, what's this mean? I don't subscribe to vision, I just pay as I go (I should just subscribe, it's dumb), but i'm not sure how to keep track of my usage.

Any help with any of these ?'s is greatly appreciated! Thanks a million.

hmm..

why do you want to use a call timer.. for sprint its not a big deal cause they give you so many options to check it...

www.sprintpcs.com
*4 (cost 1mins max?)

*2 (free but takes few mins to get a person on the other line)

To answer your question, mari, there's no way to reset the lifetime timer. As a matter of a fact, I'm fairly sure that even the Sprint store can't reset it. (kinda like a car's odometer). The 564k is how much data has been transfered through your phone with vision. If you don't subscribe, then you pay a certain amount for X amount of k (k = kilobytes).

Unfortunately, though, there is no way to get a "call timer" on the Sanyo phones. Actually I don't remember any Sprint phone I have owned that has a call timer? arbntmare is right on the nail though, there are lots of ways to check your usage (even Vision can check it for you!).

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
