Questions about MDAIII on T-Mobile(UK) - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

I have just purchased (awaiting its delivery) a UK QWERTY MDAIII on T-Mobile(UK) and am wondering if it will accept a VodafoneUK sim card? if not is there an unlocking service/software?
Also could anyone tell me the differences between a T-Mobile Rom and the standard i-mate PDA2k rom? Has T-Mobile disabled any functions/features? or have they customised any of the builtin software/today screen like O2 do?
Thank you very much.
Regards
Richard

I have T-Mo MDAIII, but had to pay £15 to T-Mo to get it unlocked for my O2 SIM. There is no unlocking software yet.
There is no flashy interface like the O2 device, but you do get the voicedial, zip, truefax and GPRS monitor software with it.

£15? - Not bad at all, in the grand scheme of things. How was it done? Over the phone, and they add it to your bill sort of thing? or did you have to send it in.
Many thanks
Regards
Richard

Done over the phone and added to my bill.

What price for the MDA? - o2 are in total chaos about the XDA IIs - on website it is quoted as £179 (with contract) [look for 'Great Deals' link] but link leads to dead end page with incorrect phone number.
Phone staff say variously: "£350 on our price matrix, even upgrade" - "£249 on business offline, not available on business online)

MobilePlanet customers

Did anyone receive their Kaiser from MobilePlanet yet?
If yes when did you guys pre-order?
Thanks
I pre-ordered mine on Aug/27 ... at that time ETA was sept/09
last few days, they have been pushing it back a week...
and as of today it has been pushed back further ( sept/20 !! )
I emailed them for answer and told them that i will cancel the order if they keep doing it again !! ( not good for one's heart ..LMAO !
BTW ... at the original time .. my order was quoted $799 USD + %7.5 tax + S&H (14.99 ) --->>> TTL= CDN $924 +
anyone know anything regarding the quoted price & the balloon prices ???
am I obligated to pay a higher price once stock is in ?? do I get the discount price if it happen to be lower then at the ordered time ??
I'd also emailed them about this already ... and I'm about that close to canceling !!!
there are stocks around ... but it's not right for expansys to keep playing with customers emotion like this ... you're so close to the date & then they just crush your bubbles .. not only one time, but again & again !
and why suh a price cut throat/difference when it is also from the same company but different region ??
Mexico is almost $100 USD higher ??

Dude I assume that you are in Canada as you converted your order to Canadian. I ordered one with SuperiorGadgets.com from here in Canada and it was only $911 inc Gst and shipping. He will ship by the 9th he says. If price goes down you will be credited if it goes up, they eat the difference. Click on the link at the top of the forum page.

Thanks for the info ..but ...
I was going to cancel the order regarding the "in stock" date keep being pushed back ...etc
just got an email from "mobileplanet" and mine is shipped (sept/06/07) ... with tracking number !! ETA Sept/11/07 ... nice date.. eh ??
oh well, I lost $12 ... the price to pay for wanting the latest/greatest.
Thanks again
P.S ... the %7.5 tax charged ... they assured me it will cover "customs" ... absolutely no hidden/surprise charges.
Website showing Due Sept 20th.... I just called Mobileplanet Customer service and they told me that they do have it in-stock... I just ordered once and it will be shipped today
Are you all paying $800+ because you want it so bad? Isn't the retail price from Cingular supposed to be $499? Granted, its whenever that will be.

Just called mobileplanet. They did get an order of 1000 in but they were for retailers and the old backorders. Mine was one day short so will ship next week . Not sure how you managed to snag one today. As far as paying full price there are several reasons.
1) I dont like locked phones.
2) I wanted the base OS not at&t
3) at&t's data plans are incredibly expensive and the difference in data plans would more than offset the 200 saving in less than a year and I would be bound to it for 2 years. Yes I know they have 3g but I dont use data on the go much and edge is fine for now and wifi is everywhere.

Want a Kaiser on T-Mobile (UK), got a cunning plan - advice please

OK, so I still have a blue angel, drooling over a kaiser, and my contract with O2 was up last week.
Thinking T-Mobile (for web n walk) but from what I hear the styling isnt as nice as the HTC one, plus my experiences with the O2 version of the XDA IIs ROMs left me a little cold.
So, ideally I want a non-branded Kaiser.
Well, if I take up a contract with T-Mobile, and take no phone, I am losing out, so I thought I would get a phone from them and sell it unused. I was looking and I can get a nokia 6300 for free with the tariff I want and it seems like I could get it unlocked easy enough or do it myself and flog it new, maybe get 100 quid for it? Any suggestions as to whether this would work or if I could shift an unlocked T-Mobile branded nokia 6300 on ebay for a decent rate. Also suggestions as to a better phone to use.
The other question is whether when I hooked the sim-free kaiser up to t-mobile, I would be able to get web n walk and all the other services set up OK. Don't want the T-Mobile front screen etc, just as long as everything works. I would imagine that cooking roms and stuff for it would be much easier as it was a vanilla phone, I am just worried about making the operator-specific settings...
Any other advice welcomed, ie another provider to go with who will subsidise me on the phone and who do an all-you-can-eat bandwidth package for a decent rate.
The only non-flexible bit is that it just *has* to be a kaiser
i did something similar a few years ago, look on tmob for all the phones you can get for free and the look on ebay's finished auctions search for the phone that seems to sell for the highest amount (it is generally the newest phones). You will still be out of pocket doing this rather than just waiting a few weeks on your current contract until tmob release the kaiser.
you will be able to get web'n'walk sms/mms settings fine, but probably won't be able to access their other services like mobile tv very easily
cool, nice to know it can work out.
I think I may have found a better phone to do it with - a sony k800i
There's a few going for over 300 quid at the mo on ebay.
I can get that free with the 15 quid a month contract, that's approaching the price of a kaiser
Not really worried about the mobile TV and stuff like that, am a geek, will do it myself - slingbox or mythtv something
OK, maybe I was smoking crack before I went to lunch or something, but there were multiple K800is on ebay listed at over 300 quid. I come back, check the link and it ended for 99.
WTF?? Maybe it was in euros or lira or something.
Im also going to use this cunning plan!
But I think your best options for a free phone to sell is either the Nokia N95 or the Blackberry Pearl.
Also, ensure T Mobile puts you on a 12 month contract as opposed to a 18 month one.
Agreed that the design of the MDA Vario III looks pants.
you can't get a free N95 on 12mo contract, and on an 18mo contract, you have to go up to the 45quid a mo contract to get it free - it's 250quid on the 15/mo contract I am going to get. The k800i or similar looks to be the phone that is going for the most on ebay that you can get for free with the 15/mo contract.
Am prolly gonna go with the 18mo contract as it is only actually 30quid more for 6 months more contract and you get more minutes / texts
Plus then I can get the web n walk for 7.50 and am still only paying a total of 22.50 a month
Okay. I talked T Mobile in throwing in a free N95, how much do you think it would sell for on ebay? I have no idea of the worth of these Nokias
If its unlocked, probably £250+
Don't get caught though
Here in the NL you could just go to any telecom shop and get any phone they hold in comination to any subscribtion with any provider. Of course these telecom shops are not affiliated with any particular network and usually the discount you get for the phone are approx 50 euros less then T-Mobile for example but it is worth 50 euros to have an unbranded and unlocket phone...(this what I am doing actually right now via a website)
Of course if you get Branded t-mobile device you get a free Micro SD card with it and the best is the guarantee for the duration of your contract. Plus here in the NL if you need to send it for a repair it goes much quicker then via HTC... T-Mobile send you prestamped & preaddressed envelope (a special one) which you use to send in your device. I haad to use this service on my Vario II when I got allignment issues and I had my phone back fixed after 4 business days. Alternatively you can bring your phone to a t-mobile shop and they even offer you a temporary replacement phone (a junky one) but then it takes longer as it has to go throught their main depot.
I am right now ordering a TyTn II via my resellers website with T-Mobile Flex 40 renewal + PITP the phone costs me including shipment 125 Euros...

Well I see two on ebay currently bidding at £544 and £655 but I saw phones yesterday going for silly amounts and then went back to a more reasonable amount. Maybe bids are getting rejected or someone is playing around.
What tariff did you have to go on to get one chucked in for free??

You can do this in the UK, but it seems that T-mobile do not allow this unless the phone is branded or approved or something. Annoying as tmob is the only one doing a flat rate 3G bandwidth package for a reasonable amount (£7.50 pm or £1 a day) I am going to explore this avenue myself, but it seems to me that you can get way more subsidy by getting a whole phone and selling it.
T Mobile wont permit this in the UK because they like to attach branded phones to their contracts, these days banning services such as MSN messenger (which the Vario III will have disabled by default)
Is MSN etc blocked on web n walk now? I heard before that it was technically against the terms, but it was possible.
What about other stuff? I would ideally like to set up some kind of media centre at home and have it pull any mp3s / videos etc I like over the net.
What about VPN? Could I maybe VPN to my home and route everything inside a tunnel, thus denying tmob the ability to see what I am transferring?
I tried selling a phone a while ago on eBay. From past auctions I was expecting to sell my phone for £200 but at the last minute someone bid £350. The PayPal details said "Kate from Richmond" (an expensive area in London) had bought the phone. It was then that I received an email from someone in Nigeria asking me to send it to Lagos... they promised £50 extra for P&P but it was obviously a scam. They started sending through spoofed PayPal receipts claiming to have paid money into my account (even though my PayPal account said differently) and in the end they got quite aggressive and threatened to report me to eBay.
Just thought I'd warn you
OK, that makes sense.
LOL, one of those N95s just finished @ £1131 !
Normal bidding, then silly bids from "Bidder 1", "Bidder 2" etc...
Looks like the 419 business is getting too much heat so the Lads from Lagos have switched to a new tack.

Its not blocked. Its frowned upon. However T Mobile are now disabling use of it via firmware, hence one of the reasons why the Vario III is being delayed.
So guys, if I sell a new unopened T Mobile N95 for £250, you think its reasonable? Or could I push for more £££s? That Kaiser isnt cheap!
To clarify on Web n Walk...
On the normal (£7.50) tariff, only surfing and email is allowed.
On the Web n Walk Plus (£12.50) tariff, everything except VOIP is allowed.
I will probably go with the £7.50 one and if they moan, go on to the £12.50 one

Dunno, might only get £200. Most of the ones over £200 seem to be tampered with...
What you might be better of doing is browsing the net and seeing if you can get 1 on a 12 month free contract with a cheepish phone and then the money u save on the contract put with selling the cheaper phone might get u somewhere...

AT&T Tilt now available on Premier Website

Just logged in to my company's AT&T Premier site - the Tilt is available now for $399 (!). I was hoping for $299 before rebates......

P.S. Looks like I can upgrade to the Tilt (no new contract) for $399 as well - I chose 'Upgrade Device Only', which allowed me to keep my current plan unchanged (including my trusty Medianet service).
yep, i was just getting ready to post this..
Included Accessories
1350 mAh Lithium Ion Polymer Battery
AC Wall Charger
Mini USB Sync Cable
Stylus
Extra Sylus
My wallet is at work and AT&T has the Tilt ready for me
Yeah I was hoping for a better price too. If you do the upgrade device only, I know it leaves your plan intact. Does it extend your contract 2 years though?
Where the heck is PDA Personal Max? Does anyone have it in their list? I HAVE a cell card, I don't need tethering, dagnabit!
And no data plan discount? We're better off getting it from the retail site!

I'm wondering the same thing - I got to the very end of the process and had to click to agree to a Service Agreement that specified 2yrs. I asked this same question in another thread:

I had an option to upgrade the phone only for 399 or upgrade the device and plan as well..so i tried to see if price is goona changed it did,instant 100$ off and 25 dollar instant credit..275 plus tax and 18 dollar upgrade fee because I bought the 8525 like 3 months ago. because it seemed like I bought new plan and data plan,I can get the 100 MIR as well,they won't have esxuce not to give,,I saved 225$..so I really don't understand the big deal if they exttend the contract you know..if a better phone comes I can do the same process over and over again,with out having to wait 2 years,,so the money I will save over time is justified if I have to abondan my contract and pay 175$ one day.. what do you guys think?

FWIW, in the other thread I referenced above, at least one person has confirmed contract extension showing on his account after the $399 deal
As far as the "big deal" on contract, my company pays for my phone and the monthly bill is a LOT more than I'd carry personally. I don't want to be at my company's mercy if they decide they don't need me to have a phone (or don't need me at all) with 23 mos left on a contract. Sure, they *SHOULD* cover the ETF but why risk it....
Richard
in your case yeah its a big deal but for me when I just saved over 200 with the extention,I don't mind the possibility to be punished 175 only. 399+tax VS 274.99+tax is a difference that I can't let go,couldn't live with myself haha.I can extent again in 6 months if they come up with a better phone..so I am in control and getting the discounts ..you know...but for you ,no contract is clean and necessary..

Anyone bought the kaiser at a decent price recently?

Has anyone bought the kaiser at a decent price recently? From the feedback in the forums, tursted web stores are a lot more expensive Even ebay is getting expensive...
I got mine from Orange (in the UK). My contract just expired - I spend about £50-80 per month and I negotiated 300 minutes, 500 text, 30MB data per month with unlimited data at evening and weekends for free, plus I got the phone for free as well!
The only other vendor in the UK that I know is selling the Tytn II is T-Mobile. Hit Orange with T-Mobile's web n walk service and they will probably bend a little, especially if you talk to the cancellations department - they will do everything they can to stop you leaving...
I got mine from egadget depot .com price match available and honest merchant with fast shipping.

I own a small business. I recently moved 25 lines over from Sprint to AT&T. This was via an authorized dealer (AT&T franchise). They gave me my Tilt for $300.00 bucks. I will never deal with a corporate store again. It's almost like they have more freedom to do what they want in order to win business. My friend moved his family plan over from Tmobile to AT&T with the same franchise and they gave him the same deal as me.
Got mine from craigslist. Brand new at&t tilt for $400.00 even. best deal ever.
got mine for 300 euro's at a place they call the black market they sell all sorts of things before the official release date and for a reasonable price oya and thats only the phone with no contract or monthly payment it used to be the vario 3 but i sim unlocked it and flashed it with the dutch rom

There getting 499.00 at the att stores here. Retail ,no contract needed.
Add in 6% tax and 15 bucks to unlock it and your at 534 grand total.
Just walkin and walk out with a new phone.
What gets me is how someone would pay over 600 plus shipping on Ebay for the same thing (locked to att also). And theres alot of buy it nows on ebay over 600 bucks for a tilt. I must be missing something, I dont understand that.
OK whats the lowest price available for the tytn ii not the att tilt?

I have bought 4 units so far for family and friends. For Shops I would recommend Inkino Ltd at 48 Tottenham Court Road and 9 Great Russell Street. They recently had deals for HTC TyTN II P4550 Kaiser and 6GB Micro SD for £499.95.
I have also bought a unit from www.htcdirect.co.uk I was impressed with their speedy service, responses to my email queries and the unit turned up very nicely packaged. I will be using them in the future too. The only reason I went with HTCDirect was that Inkino had sold out at the time. Its always good to know more than one good source.

Seems they've had a bit of a change of heart over pricing too. SIM free price is £474, unless you're talking about the 12 month contract price + £18.99 on t-mobile, but that is £371.31 + you get 300mins and 200 txts thrown in for free.
they're still £373 + p&p if you buy it as pay as you go with vodafone. The first TD2's are shipping unlocked (or at least the ones to that supplier are) so you can just leave the voda sim out when it arrives if you're on another network. I think the 'sim free' option on the website is probably for when they start locking them to carriers.
The 12 month t-mobile contract is a good deal, except it means signing up to t-mobile!

I don't get it. I've seen that T-Mobile won't be offering the TD2 until they repackage it as the MDA V which is to be released in June.
How come retailers can offer it on T-Mobile, Voda etc this early?

They just package the retail HTC item with a sim-only contract that they get commission on.
It is not unheard off to offer a unbranded HTC device with a contract...I know when I used to go for packages like that in the past with O2 and T-mobile, I used to specifically ask for a de-branded/original unit from Carphone warehouse or Phones4U...and both offered it - if not after a few huffs and puffs
As for settings, remember most HTC if not all now days come with the settings manager app so it picks up the simcard, and 95% of the time, will have the settings for you already pre-programmed so you just hit install
hmm
would the sim free version work for sprint?
my original touch battery just pooped out haha

When you were the only one with stock did you jack up the price just to make a quick fifty quid?

I'm unsure why the price was put up as we always work to provide the best pricing at the current time.
We run systems to ensure we are competitive on pricing on all HTC products and are currently looking in to this blip. Any one who did purchase at the higher price has already been refunded the difference.
I'm also aware stock is now in a very limited supply with additional UK stock now over 4 weeks away.
Sorry for any confusion/issues caused.

All our orders processed before 4pm are sent out for next working day delivery.
We do get many reports that deliveries usually happen in the morning and in fact Diamond2's have already started to arrive this morning.
If you want to guarantee pre-noon delivery then this option is available at an additional cost.
