I just bought an unlocked Telus Milestone. I'm still getting used to the phone but so far i'm really liking it. But for some reason it's not connecting to data. Did I miss something in settings?
View 11 RepliesI noticed I could create an AnyCut shortcut to SIM Toolkit on my Telus Milestone, unlocked and running with Fido. But when it launched, it immediately force closed. I think it's cause Fido doesn't use SIM apps.Anyway I backed it up with Titanium Backup and then I figured it was safe to uninstall the Toolkit with Titanium too, cause I could always put it back later. When I tried though, it turned out Titanium hadn't actually backed up the toolkit successfully. I have tried various approaches to reinstalling the various versions of Stk.apk that I can find on the web but they all fail - including adb push. The app is in my /system/app directory but still doesn't show in AnyCut or Manage Applications anymore.
So two questions - 1) can someone post their Stk.apk from Telus Milestone 2.1? 2) Any idea how to get it back in there?I'm asking because I'd like to take the phone on a trip to the US soon where I'll use my AT&T GoPhone SIM, and I think that provider does use SIM apps. Thanks!
Has anyone managed to get Google voice search working on a Telus Milestone? I cant find it on my phone.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm about to trade my Milestone for a brand new Xperia X10a because I'm going to be travelling later this year and I need that 2100MHz band.Can anyone confirm that this phone has the 2100MHz 3G band? Every website I've been to says that it only has 850/1900MHz but others on this board say otherwise.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI see so many threads where people are taking a Telus Motorola Milestone and trying to tweak it to run on Rogers network (at slower speeds than it would on Telus).Why are they just not going to Telus? Is there some other advantage to making the Motorola Milestone work with Rogers network?It just seems many people dislike Rogers - is there something about Telus and the Milestone I should know about? Maybe locked into a contract at Rogers... but it's not like the Moto hardware is cheap without contract through Telus (something like $599 CAN).
View 8 Replies View RelatedI just recently got a hold of a very new Telus Milestone 2.01. I need to back it up before updating to 2.1 just in case things don't go well.I have googled pretty much alot of sites but only "ROOTING" is all i find. Not interested in that, but just to back up the whole firmware for my own use. Im not interested also in using someone else's .sbf
View 2 Replies View RelatedDon't know if this is more appropriate for the Telus HSPA forum or Motorola. I'm going with Motorola because it's about unlocking the Milestone to use elsewhere.Please post in here if you obtained an unlock code for a Telus Milestone and it worked. Even better would be a screenshot or photo/video of the screen, showing your Milestone is running on a non-Telus operator (double bonus if it shows 3G/HSPA reception). Let us know if there were any specific options you had to choose when buying the unlock code to make sure it's for the correct Milestone.
Please *also* post in here if the unlock code *didn't* work and let us know who sold you the lemon.
What frequency bands will the Telus Moto Milestone support? All the info seems to indicate 850/1900 for 3G and no info on 2G except for rumors saying the same as the EU milestone or only 850/1900.I was hoping for at least tri-band 3G and quad-band 2G. I am sick and tired of these phones with weak-sauce frequency bands.
View 15 Replies View RelatedI know there is another thread about the Telus update that came out a few days ago, but that thread is more about issues installing the update.Like most of you, i looked for new features and have not really found any, but figure there must be some improvements in 32MB of fixes.One thing I have noticed is much better battery life. After 3 days, I have noticed that I have significantly more battery when I get home at night with my normal usage.I am wondering if anyone else has experienced the same. Normally by the time I would get home, my phone would report under 15% or less. However I do have a Seidio extended battery (yeah the big honking one). The last few days I have had 40-50% battery left.
Since the milestone/droid has never recognized the extended battery's extra capacity, it reports battery % based on the standard battery size. So even though my battery would report 5%, I could run for 10-15 hours at 5%.So, is the battery life better with the update, or is the milestone now recognizing the extra capacity of the battery and just reporting it correctly.
last month, I inherited an LG-C900B (BELL) as my buddy had upgraded to an HTC TITAN Windows Phone. As I was frustrated with my force closing, stuck on Android 2.2, HTC Desire I decided to give WP a chance.
We unlocked the SIM from my TELUS HTC Desire and everything worked great. MMS, text, data, wifi, etc. Last week, I suddenly lost the ability to receive MMS messages from outside of the TELUS network. After a few days of troubleshooting and working with TELUS support, I'm at a loss.
I've done the following:
1. Reset my phone.
2. Downloaded the LG Network App to setup all my APN, Proxy IP, and MMSC settings automatically. (I did this last month when I was setting up my phone as well).
3. Upgraded my phone to the latest version available 7.10.8773.98.
I've also gained access to the MFG app to check my config.xml and to see what my network profile showed.
Current network profile: TLS_CA_302_220_ENG.xml
AlwaysON options: ON
Proxy enable options: OFF
Auto update options: ON
All of the following values are hard coded into the config.xml file after running the LG Network Setup App for TELUS 302-220.
APN: sp . telus . com
Proxy: 74.49.0.19
Port:80
MMSC: (aliasredirect.net/proxy/mmsc)
Has something changed? Funny when I go to aliasredirect.net t it comes up with a place holder page. Not sure if that's related or not.
I have 2 cell phones; one on Telus contract, and a V3xx unlocked on Rogers Pay as You Go. I would like to be able to share a Telus plan, but Telus says the V3xx will not run on their 3G network. I installed a Telus SIM card, and it cannot find a network. Does anyone know if it is possible to get the Motorola to work with a Telus SIM card?
View 2 Replies View RelatedEven though the Backflip comes to AT&T in a week, it looks to me that the Droid/Milestone may be the better phone. Bigger but better. But can I get one that uses all the AT&T 850MHz bands? It doesn't seem to be like Nokia, where I could simply buy the phone I wanted from (e.g.) J&R or NewEgg; where does one buy unlocked NAM (North American) Motorola Milestones from?

View 1 Replies View RelatedNeed to replace my wife's Storm 2 which died last week. Don't want to go to a new device as she loses her current unlimited data plan if she switches to an HSPA device, and she was ok with her Storm 2 before.
OK with a good used one, though I know she'd prefer new. Telus doesn't sell them any more, and they're $200+ on eBay - that was a shock, considering I can get a new 9860 for $600!
Any suggestions on other sage places to buy, and what price I can expect? We're in Vancouver so Canadian shipping is mandatory, and she'd like a replacement ASAP so a Vancouver purchase would be ideal.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAfter spending 2 hours on the forums and 2 hrs on motorola website, downloading the motorola software update and finding that the updater says that your phone is up to date with 2.1 (where as the motorola site says 2.2 is now available) and browsing thru unending discussions, I was unable to update my Motorola milestone to Android 2.2. I last week sent my phone to the service center to ask them to update it to 2.2, they returned the phone saying it is up to date.I am sick of removing applications and always worrying about the remaining ROM availability.

If the official version is not available in Dubai can someone tell me of a shop where I can get it updated, as I dont really understand the concept of rooting and stuff like that.
Somebody wants to buy my iPhone 3G which is locked to Rogers. They need it to work with Telus (Canada).
So my first thought was, jailbreak and unlock. Well it appears that the person does not have a telus sim card and wants her original number with the phone.
Is this a no go? Is there anyway I can still get this iPhone 3G to work with Telus without a Telus sim?
