Verizon Slider need help please

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: ihaveaslider

ok, I just got the slider and its great and all but I have some questions.

1. When I try to go on WAP it tells me it has to set up security and whatever, so I click ok. It connects and then says "Security Error: Key not recognized." How can I fix this?

2. I've seen ways to get free ringtones and WAP for the Virgin Mobile version of this phone. Do they work with Verizon?

Thanks a lot for any help.

For #1, you're getting that because you're not paying for it. Verizon charges a fee for mobile web.

I'm unsure if free WAP is available for the Verizon slider yet.

Would a WAP tunnel work?

you phone has brew so you cant download anything for free but if you buy the cable you can send rings to your phone. and i doubt verizon would give you free wap

Of course Verizon wouldn't give you free wap, they don't give anything away.

But the original poster is talking about WAPTunnel, which is a way to use WAP with a Verizon phone, just not using Verizon's WAP service. I did it all the time with my CDM-9500.

Anway, I haven't found a way to get this working with my VM Slider on Verizon... just sits there eating airtime but nothing comes up. Maybe those with Verizon Sliders will have better luck.

I just got it working today. Set up WAP tunnel, then add a website you want to visit in the contacts menu. Then go to the url and hit the call button.

I guess not

I did some searching but couldnt really find the site addresses to add to contacts. I thought one of them was wap.aol.com but that doesnt work. Can someone give me an example of a wapsite to try.

Thanks

try wim.aol.com, see if you can get on AIM!



Posted by: cratos

Connection refused. I can get to other web sites though. Like google etc. I am wondering if I can download any ringtones.
