Thanks for the heads up.

It P2P video simply video calling? That is what we call it here. All our phones for the last 2 years have supported that.

Unless P2P video is something different??

No, you're right P2P video is the same as video calling. The at&t V9 doesn't support it and I'm guessing the AU V9's seems or firmware will allow us to find out how to unlock that feature in our V9s.

I've had an AT&T V9 for over a week now and I'm starting to like it more and more. (the color grows on you but I'd still rather have black or dark blue ;) )

After reading the posts here and elswhere, it would appear I can make the changes I really want. Enable POP3 email client, flash lights for a missed call, enable full rate transfer, and get rid of all the annoying AT&T branding. Right? :2thumbs:

I was just wondering, before my 30 days run out......... are there any benefits or extras in getting an unbranded V9 vs. the AT&T brand??

Is there an issue with the V9 and being able to use my POP3 email accounts?

Mine was setup with one of my Verion Emails and I had no problems.

Made some progress on this just now. Edited my modem script to limit the speed of the serial link to 115200 bps (not full on HSDPA, obviously) which prevents the modem from hanging up unexpectedly and requiring a reboot on my MacBook (+ power on/off phone to fix it... argh...).

I think this works for me, since I'm willing to accept a bit of speed limitation for the convenience of Bluetooth, but hook up the USB when I want full DSL-like speeds. Here are my results on broadbandreports with a 1MB file in both cases:

Using Bluetooth:
Mobile speed test
266 kbit/sec
0.774s latency
31.197s d/l time.again.

Using USB:
Mobile speed test
603 kbit/sec
0.5s latency
14.002s d/l time.again.

Here is the Australian version that just came out today. Nice that you can do video calls with the flip closed (actually the only way to do video calls as no internal camera!)

Searched a bit and could find any posting on this ...

I rely on the alarm clock and usually assign it to one of my home keys - it doesn't show up as an option - the closest I can get is the Tools menu which has the alarm clock on it. I know it's on the "Options" soft key but I'd like to reassign that if I can get it on one of the dpad keys. This isn't just my phone - it's just not available as an item, correct?

It comes up for me on my AU V9. I have set up for alarm.

Maybe I'm just cornfused.... but on the branded V9 - email options appear to be limited to what AT&T wants you to have.

I can't seem to find a way to get to other pop3 accounts, ie cox.net, pop.usahosting, etc.., but from what I've learned here - a seem edit will allow enabling a full email client.

Do I have that right? just wondering

Andy when you get a chance could you back up the entire a/ drive and seems 0032, 004a, and 004e?

Thanks for your help and that silver V9 looks very nice. Congrats!

Could I please ask a question about the photo with the flip open?

On the ATT USA phones, the clear button is underneath the menu navigator. I see that your clear button is to the right of the four-way navigator, in the position where we have our Cellular Video key.

I can't quite make out what' below your four-way navigator. Is that the Video key?

Wow. That Silver is a lot better looking than our "mahagony"/pinkish/purplish/maroonish US color. :(

The video button is on the left. The button down the bottom is a "Telstra" key which brings up my networks set menu. The phone is branded by "Telstra" however it is not locked to the network. The only branding is that button and a small "Telstra" logo on the back.
