Hey, thanks for the help! I'll give that a try later tonight.
I have just one more question I forgot to ask when I made this thread a few
days ago. It is: How come whenever I put a t-mobile sim card into the phone it
gets a signal (2g EDGE only though,) but whenever I put an at&t sim in, I get a
red X over the signal bars. I have tried this with two different at&t sim cards
(one through Straight Talk, and the other through at&t) and both give me the
red X. Neither of the at&t cards are activated, but they should still be able
to detect the network.
One other thing I should mention is that when I spoke with at&t and gave them
my IMEI # for the phone, they said it was a 2g only device. This is confusing
to me as on the back of the phone it shows "UMTS 850/900/1800/1900MHz." Does
that not mean it should 3g capable? Also, the ebay store I got it from said it
was 3g. Do you think it could be a problem with the radio?
