Hi all, Since my FR has been working as a pretty reliable phone since I installed QtE 4.4.2, I decided to get greedy and see if I could get GPRS working. Note that I've been lucky, and have never suffered from the buzz issues that I've heard so many people talk about.
So on QtE, I went to the internet application and added a GPRS connection, and then went off looking for the APN and login information for my carrier. Someone called me, and when I answered the phone, I heard a deafeningly loud sound very much like a modem about to connect. I hung up, and the person called back, only to get the same reaction. I had to get the caller ID off the FR and call them back on a landline. The good news is that once I found the connection info and got connected to GPRS (which worked flawlessly, BTW), the loud modem noise went away, but it was replaced by a loud, rather annoying buzz in the background. So I guess 2 questions: 1) Is it normal to hear a loud modem noise when someone calls with GPRS enabled, but not connected? Is there anything that can be done about this? 2) Is the buzz I hear with GPRS connected the same buzz I've heard so much talk about? I suspect this is related to the hardware, not the distro I'm running, so I'm not going to tag this as 'QtExtended'... Warren
