You need to add ';wap2' to the end of the url to get the basic WAP interface, David.  So, the url for unread posts would be:

http://www.idnetters.co.uk/forums/index.php?action=unread;wap2

You can then navigate from there.

Thanks Simon I will try it...because I managed to get in thought it would allow me to post,had actually written and added a smiley ..

Typing it up though was fairly easy,much better than the LG but I have not typed with the Blackberry though

First challenge..I failed and wasted 4 hours of my life well it seemed like 4...the sim card from old phone going into new one but for the life of me I cant see how to get all the contact numbers into my new phone same goes for the images and my ring tones !! any ideas ?


We can work out how to set the email up after I have slept for a week... :whistle:

Can you not Bluetooth the contacts over from the old phone?  Or how about setting up the Nokia to sync with Outlook?

No Simon...I was on this hours last night...some guy on the Nokia users forum has the same issue but has 6300 numbers in his...I did all my contacts manually in the end (only 12)  ;D
I have the manual which shows how to sync up devices and transfer via Blue tooth...got the lap top out and tried and tried...no luck tried getting the phones to link up..no luck....gave up around 1 am

Tried to set up mail....wont recognise any other email other than Tiscali,BT,Hotmail...which is clearly silly.
Cant seem to access internet other than though  TMobile Zones....

I want to set the mail with my 1&1 account which seems impossible at this moment...I did find my router on the wireless setting but it would not connect up...After hours of fun  I gave up and went off to bed at god knows what time.

I have to get myself over to Argos to pick up one of those toys which is gold dust but I have managed to reserve one of the last ones...I cant get out of this one it was on "Santa's List" so he cant let them down can he....then I have to go to the Christmas assembly,get back here to see some people,that will tie me up until 4 at the earliest.

Then I can try again and set this phone up.
Yes or NO chaps.

Can these things..connect up to the web as stated but not through TMobile zones ?
Can they connect up to designated Email address..not the few on the list ?

If the answer to these are yes...then I will resume my nocturnal efforts later today.
??? ??? ??? ???

Give me human beings any day  ;)

You should be able to access POP email from any source, I would have thought, David, but you'll probably need to send via T-Mobile's SMTP server.

On most phones there is a set up wizzard to make things easy David, and bluetooth from one phone to another should also be simple  :dunno: no idea why you are having issues.

As has been said, the phone should have it's own email client, and you should be able to set up POP3 fairly simply.

Bluetooth should just be a question of pairing one phone with the other.

You'll need the Nokia software to be installed on the PC to sync with Outlook.

just type in your settings, its simple, David and bluetooth across phones takes seconds, unless the handset is faulty.......maybe read the manual  ;D

Well I have just posted from the phone in the other thread but see that there is no phone icon  ??? ant answer that one  :dunno: I did though.Then I used the phone and connected here,very slow but this area isnt really covered that well,if tha is a factor..but it works which is brilliant to me

Still stuck on the email issue and I think its to do with the information I am putting in....tomorrows another day,as I am changing isp in a few days I will try and sync this up to Microsoft mail or office,I have a feeling its to do with the pop3 ect but have entered the right information...I willl get there.. ;)

One last thing before I go off to bed...I had a client here today who showed me his Blackberry and when I showed him my phone he preffered it and is changing next week..... ;D mad me feel good  ::) :whistle:


I had better get some sleep....... :bye:

The nokia E71 is a great handset, like the Blackberrys, I just could not go back to a phone where I have to have buttons, but for those that do, great devices.

I found a google app where I can just put the phone to my ear and  say my search, the app registers the accelerometer in my phone, detects the movement movement and when you look at the screen it does a search after you move it from your ear, that's just fantastic  ;D
