N82

Friday, July 04, 2008

Randy and I went to Smart Wireless Center.

I retained my Smart Gold subscription plan but, I didn't liked the FREE HANDSETs available under Retention Plan: Sony Ericsson W910i, Sony Ericsson P1i, Nokia 6500c, nor the Nokia E65. So, I picked instead N82 Warm titanium, and paid Php 6,000.

We did some grocery shopping before going home.

At home, Randy bakes bread and cake while preparing dinner. I was too excited to explore N82 features but I think I corrupted the installation of NSeries PC Suite in my PC. It failed to communicate with my N82 device due to a mistake when I stopped Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 installation, as it was taking long time. I forgot that the Microsoft .NET Framework is a platform that connects information, people, systems, and devices.

Worst of all, when exploring my N82 device, I got this message: Sim card registration failed.. I checked online and found out that many mobile users encountered the same problem. I called *888 from Tintin's cellphone but customer care gave me a Smart Hotline to call: 8110211. The problem was still there so I asked my son to fix it. Voila, my new cellphone is working again!

Anyway, if anyone of you encountered similar situation, reboot your cellphone. And, also, make sure your SIM card registers your new cellphone model, even though your new handset has pre-loaded phone settings...

Download 3G, MMS and GPRS settings from Smart:

To set-up MMS/GPRS/3G, text SET <handset model> and send to 211. Example: "SET MMS N82"
NOTE: Save your MMS/GPRS/3G settings upon download. Key in 1234 when prompted .
To activate MMS/GPRS/3G feature: Key in "MMS ON" and send to 3401.

Smart Mobile Services:
* 3G
* i-mode™
* MMS and GPRS
* MMS Mail
* Mobile Decode
* Mobile Exchange
* Mobile Internet
* myTV
* Voice Txt

Oopppsss... time to sleep: phone has low battery... I missed my daughter, she's the one doing all these settings and pc installation for me.
