Greetings,

I have searched and searched..googled etc and still cant find the answers.

My boss gave me his old 8125 on cingular when he upgrated to a Tilt. He had it SIM unlocked from cingular. I put in my sim card, entered in the code and got voice calls. I can not find the codes to put in for setting up my text messages SMS for t-mobile.

The screen reads as follows:

Try the instructions for a Tmobile MDA, as that was the tmobile version of the HTC Wizard, also known as the 8125.

Good luck.

I thought that SMS followed the SIM? You put your SIM into an unlocked/unbranded phone and you can send SMS off the bat. Am I wrong in that thinking?

ahhhh i think i am getting closer to the problem. It is unlock so my sim card works but when i boot it up it is still branded to cingular. Well, that bites because i am out of my element on the flashing etc lol yes, i am that much of a noob lol Amanda

So bit the big one and sucessfully SuperCID the phone, dropped down to button rom and flashed to mda rom on the cingular phone lol. now comes up tmobile, sms works. still having issues getting to the web but, that may be due to the fact i have just the $5.99 tmo web program.

Does anybody know if i have to just upgrade my program to get the web and mms to work? Thanks.

Well it is amazing what you can do with research... got the tmo web working throught wap.voicestream.com so the $5.99 tomob internet is working just fine, can go anywhere on the net...

Now on to setting mms settings and who knows maybe flash it to WM6 version from a cooked rom at xda...

I'm a newbie too and I would like to know how you did a SuperCID and how you got mms to work.

I just unlocked my 8125 and I am using t mobile too. I can send and receive text messages but cannot send or receive picture messages. I talked to a tmobile rep and she walked me through the steps for the settings and it still didn't work.

Your help is appreciated.
