Hi
I need field test (FTD) for windows mobile work on OMNIA 1 and OMNIA II
So i need to get network information and to locked to BTS
*#2580# - This Code Shows you the Integrity settings.
*#0228# - This code shows you the Antenna RSSI, Active Antenna Bars, Serving Cell, Read Therm ADC, Device temperature.
*#2222# - This Code Shows the FTA hardware version.
*#1111# - This Code Shows the FTA software version.
*#0011# - This Code Shows some more detailed GSM (Basic Information) status. I think This is what you actually needed.
All these are tested myself in Samsung Omnia I8000.
Hope this may help you.
Can i locked to a specific BTS, you know what i mean, in symbian OS there is application named (FTD) you can locked your mobile channel to a specific one so you use one sector in one site...
Thanks for reply

Wierd. None of these codes work on my i8000L
I've had a search here already and could not find an answer, so ...
Is there anyway to directly sync (in both directions) a Windows Phone 8 mobile with MS Outlook (no exchange server) on a PC ?
I've been using my Outlook on my PC as a central point of control since I moved from my SE T68i/Palm Tungsten T2 combination to a SE P900, so over a decade now, and have no intentions to change (plus I, for various reasons, have no desire to dump my personal data in 'The Cloud').
I was able to do this with my old WinMobile 5 and 6 phones (through Activesync ?) and then my android phones (through MyPhoneExplorer on my Nexus 4 and on my older Desire Z when HTC dropped the ball on the Gingerbread upgrade), but I know yo could not do so with Win Phone 7.
Note if it's manufacturer specific (as it is with Android) then it's the Nokia Lumia 1020 that's tempting me with it's compact camera sensor (or is it a compact camera with a phone module included ....).
If it's not possible to do it with manufacturer/Windows software, then are there third party applications out there (such as MyPhoneExplorer) ?

I'm going to check later but this question has been asked before, an I'm fairly sure it was almost exactly the same question, I also have a feeling it was asked in wp7 as well ages ago. H
No is the answer, an the my phone explore option you talk about for android, by your own admission, doesn't work correctly either.
I know change seems a pain in the arse, but if you want full out look sync then your going to have to go back to something like the HTC HD2 and use wm 6
My friend, an in sure it was you I spoke to before about wp7, this is never going to change, you can have it with wm6, you can have a bodged version with android, but wp has left that (admitted fairly useful) feature behind, the cloud is the future, like it or not.
Sent from my arc 10HD using xda app-developers app.
I'm about to buy a WP device, and of course it's my first WP device so I was doing some research on it.
We know that Lumia devices to WP are like Nexus device to Android, which means first gets update to new system.
And recently there a lot of wallet-friendly WP phones comes out like Prestigio, Yezz, Blu... etc, and as I have wait for 2 months that Lumia 630 dual sim is still not available in my country so I'm thinking about prestigio multiphone 8500.
Only thing I'm worrying about is system update. I take no doubt it's not gonna be as fast as Lumia devices get.
And I read an article about an app "windows preview for developers", and appears it can run on Lumia, Huawei and Samsung.
So I was wondering how does WP work?
I mean, for example the Android , each device has its own driver so need manufacturer to do the update.
And WP doesn't work that way? just like we saw on PC, one system contains almost all driver?
Each OEM device contains the Windows Phone OS + OEM/Carrier specific firmwares that do include drivers that will add and tweak things for the specific version of WP.
The Preview for Developers program allows a user to update his or her phone to the latest version of the Windows Phone OS ONLY, keeping the current firmware that you had installed BEFORE you updated the OS via the preview for developers. Before updating, Microsoft informs you that if something goes wrong with your phone, that it CAN void your warranty (unless you can get back to a previous version of the OS to match the version that is in production for your carrier).
The carriers will release the OEM/Carrier updates when they are approved.

Hi,
Firstly, although now Nokia's mobile division belongs to Microsoft, I do not think as long as it is a kind of exclusivity for updates. It's just that there are only a duo (or rather all in one) Microsoft/Nokia that move your ass, the rest of the manufacturers do almost nothing, and royally fu** Windows Phone (Huawei, HTC, Samsung, etc). It is therefore felt in the updates:
- Nokia first in almost all the time
- Huawei, HTC, Samsung, etc. last
All this because some OEMs do not want to bet (big) on Windows Phone. This is unfortunate.
In addition, the updates via the Developers Preview for all models of Windows Phone 8 uild OS updates have the same time. Namely, since the GDR3 Preview, the Preview status updates become official once the release for everyone (almost no change the build version between of Preview/official).
On Windows Phone, the packages the OS portion and the firmware part *are separated*, which means that one can go without the other.
Some example (Nokia):
- Preview GDR3 WP8.0 on Lumia Amber (Lumia Amber is fully compatible under GDR2 WP8.0).
- Preview WP8.1 on Lumia Black (Lumia Black is fully compatible under GDR2 WP8.0).
- Preview GDR1 WP8.1 on Lumia Cyan (Lumia Cyan is fully compatible in WP8.1).
- Etc. (along with other OEM).
Of course, for each GDR (at minimum), OEMs need to update their firmware to make it fully compatible at this level (software-hardware).

thanks for your reply.
please forgive my stupidity and poor english, about GDR, can I take it like a big update on Windows , like Service Pack ? at least that's how I felt about this thing ...
what do you mean "Amber", "Black" and "Cyan" ? I assume it's like system name ? like TouchWiz , SenseUI and something ?
so I assume i bought a Prestigio Multiphone 8500 duo (WP8.1) , is it possible i get WP8.1 GDR1 myself ? (even somehow it's problematic and not fully compatible) or I must wait for OEM to do it ?

GDR means "General Distribution Release". GDRs provide bug fixes, modifications of any kind, add features, etc.
If Windows Phone 8 would "equal" (excuse the term) at Windows 7 (not Windows 8, because there are more Service Pack on this version), then yes a GDR would be about equal to a Service Pack.
Lumia Amber, Lumia Black and Lumia Cyan are firmware developed by Nokia. They contain all sorts of things, such as drivers, features, assembly (dll/exe), etc.
Basically, it is the firmware that makes the link between the hardware and the software. All other manufacturers are developing the firmwares for their Windows Phone, only they do not give of name at of their firmware. Nokia does.
All Windows Phone 8 will get the GDR1 of WP8.1, even your device (either by voice Preview, or by the official voice).

if I may , i'd like to know something more about WP.
as we can see in Android , the eco-system is full of fragment , and Google couldn't push OEMs to update their devices, does Microsoft have more control over this matter ?
I mean , how could Microsoft to be so sure about all WP8 devices will get GDR1 ? for Lumia series I can understand , but what about devices of Huawei , Samsung and other OEMs ? how could Microsoft guarantee the update on NO-Lumia devices ?

All Windows Phone 8 device has support in terms of updates. Support for Windows Phone 8 will normally end at the latest in 2016 (for some device).
On this point, you do not have to inquitez, not before long (and in hope that Microsoft to learn from their mistake with WP7).

with all due respect sir , i think you misunderstood me ...
my main question is , how could Microsoft possibly to oversee the update over all other OEMs ? for Lumia , there is no doubts about that ...
like they've made a contract , agreement , or such thing ?
we see how the looser Google is, in the control, special the update part of Android ...:crying:
Microsoft controls the phone update servers. If an OEM doesn't want to release an update for their phone, MS could (in theory) just push the OS update to all users of that phone anyhow. This would be functionally equivalent to using the Preview For Developers option, except doing it for everybody instead of just those who opted into it.
PFD allows you to update any WP8 device from any OEM and on any carrier as though it were an Android Nexus device: you get the updates as soon as Microsoft publishes them, without waiting on OEM/MO customizations and without the OEM or MO having any opportunity to block or delay the update unless it breaks on their firmware (in which case MS will stop pushing the update until it's fixed).
