New, Very Useful T608 Codes Discovered
A former SonyEricsson T608/CDMA team member (who I am assuming wishes to remain anonymous, please contact me if otherwise) sent me the following code that enables some very useful menus. Dial ##8786368 (##TSTMENU). Then press the Menu key, and select Add Number. The following menu items are now enabled. Menu->9Settings->4Display->5Display Sleep Menu->9Settings->7Other->2Time & Date->3Set Time […]
Phones Section Updated (Again)
SonyEricsson T608 Page and the T608 Themes Page have received updates, and the phone pictures have been tweaked a little more.
HP iPAQ h2210/h2215 Firmware Update
HP has released a new firmware update for their popular h221X handheld. Version 1.10 includes updated Bluetooth drivers and manager, as well as fixes the issue with SDIO devices draining the battery, and 25 other issues. Hopefully this update will fix the issues the PDA was having with reconnecting to the SonyEricsson T608 after an […]
T608 Rebate Update
In another SPI-proved-the-T608-naysayers-wrong turn of events, Sprint has started issuing rebate checks for the T608 $100 rebate. Most people that mailed in the rebate were initially rejected, due to the rebate center thinking that you had to be a new customer, and then that the T608 was not under the promotion (try and figure that […]
SPI Delivers T608/SE Wap Page Workaround
As you may have known if you own a T608, the pre-loaded bookmark to SonyEricsson’s WAP Site does not work (selecting the T608 generates an error). However, SE has placed some of that content online for previewing at their HTML site. To workaround the unadressed problem, we have comprised all of the T608 downloads into […]
T608 Faulty Real Time Clocks?
It appears that a large amount of SonyEricsson T608s may be defective. Running the Real Time Clock service test (Dial ##786 > Menu Key > Add Number > Menu Softkey > Service Screen > Service Tests > Real Time Clock) shows that the T608 fails… a lot. Multiple T608s tested have shown the test to […]
Phones Section Updated *Updated*
Update: OTA theme downloading has been established, though it will not be available until tomorrow. Until then I have uploaded three more themes (the ones that come with the phone; Fire, Earth & Metal, as they are erased in a ##786 reset)… T608 Themes Section has been added to the T608 page. Currently listing ten […]
New T608 Application: Mistake or Sick Joke?
Sprint today posted a new Application for purchase from the Vision store, and it is available for T608 owners. It’s the AP Newswire’s Pictures and Newsfeed program. The problem? They posted the Spanish version and omitted the English one! The English version has been out for weeks (for other phones), but the Spanish version has […]
From MobileTracker
Just saw this posted on Mobile Tracker: Still no T608 “Despite a ton of chatter, the T608 is still not on the market. MobileTracker took a lot of heat from Sony Ericsson fans for declaring the phone KIA, even though the company stated it axed the North American CDMA unit in financial reports.” “Sources continue […]
T608 Petition Ends Tomorrow
Update 3: *Bangs head agains wall* Sorry folks, the petition will end on 9/1 not 8/1… Update 2: About an hour to go… Six signatures to 1400. Can we make it? Update: Today’s the last day… Tomorrow is the last day to sign the T608 petition. After tomorrow, all signatures will be sent to Sprint […]
