[Galvatron]

Just wanted to let everyone know that the WAP version of this site is up and working fine. I'm testing it out with my new Curve now! :)

[greenblood]

it works fine with my HP HX2495, but don't work with 6120 (load standard version, same problem on hofo as well)

[Ellen]

Does the WAP work on your SE phones greenblood?

[Matt]

It works on w580.

[Galvatron]

works on crackberrys just fine
loads faster

[Ellen]

I don't know about this one. My BB Curve isn't exactly the fastest thing out there when it comes to loading up web pages. Although I don't have anything to compare it to.

[Galvatron]

lol the link dosn't pop up on the forum emails yet
BTW 2 words OPERA MINI

[Ellen]

Galvatron, I was reading up on this very topic this afternoon. Is Opera Mini fast than the BB installed browser when it comes to loading up web pages?

[Galvatron]

www.operamini.com use your mobile browser afer loading it go in to options advanced options and click tcp in the APN fielld typeWap.voicestream.comLeave the username an the password blank an save the settingsWhat operamini dos is take an average website sendit to operas server resizes it to your screen resolution an renders it on your device withing a fraction of a second that's what it's dong when it says processing.

[Galvatron]

Cuerntly using opera mini4 beta 2 to veiw the forums

[A_pheonix_boy]

What about the people that have phones with wap browser? I downloaded Opera Mini, but access to internet is denied. So I use Skweezer and Oceanview. It loads OK, but its not like the real deal...:(

I just downloaded Opera Mini on my Motorola V360. No problems with it so far.

Posting on wap right now from my 8100 using the BB browser.

I downloaded Opera Mini on the Curve last night to test it, and I actually found some of the pages loaded even slower than on my V360.

[Galvatron]

how is that possable? the 8800 and 8320 have the seam 312mhz processor

[secrecyguy]

I don't feel like reading all 3 pages so I take it that you guys are working on one right?

Just don't use the really cheap ones that Blackberryforums and Howardforums are using. It lacks so many features that I decided to not use it at all.

[Ellen]

Galvatron, this is what I'd like to know as well. But after my own testing of the Curves page load times and reading complaints on other forums by people who own it, I have come to find that there is a real problem with web speeds on it.

[Galvatron]

well the average black berry only has 4 data channel my 8800 loads fast on opera mini

[jjj]

i vote for a wap version.

[greenblood]

somehow, wap version doesn't work on 6120 (same situation happens on hofo)
I guess it's phone problem
pda, on the other side, it works well

[Ellen]

greenblood, it must be a phone problem. I'm able to view the wap sites of all the forums that I post on, using all my phones. I don't know why that 6120 is giving you a problem with this.

I thought the WAP version looks the same on every phone. Maybe the screen resolution on your Samsung compared to your Nokia is what is making it appear to be better?

It didn't last, it's back to the Nokia. Bluetooth isn't working properly w/the Samsung. I went through two earpieces, both (Jabra and Motorola) were defective, buzzing and tinny sounds.

I can live with the Nokia.

[Edward]

There is one oddity that I have noticed with the WAP site, but it is not limited to T-MobileSignal, I see the same with WirelessAdvisor's WAP site.

The graphics for both "Username" and "Password" appear vertically:


U
s
e
r
n
a
m
e
instead of horizontally across the screen. Is it the web site software doing this or the Nokia phone? When I looked at T-MobileSignal in the Samsung, I believe those graphics appeared properly (horizontally).

[Alex]

Hmm...I think it may be your Nokia phone. However, maybe the other users can test this out on their phones?

Edward both of the sites that you are referring to here use to appear that way for me to, but that was because they were on the regular web site version, instead of the WAP version. Two things that you can try are:

1) To use the WAP site for T-MobileSignal, type in : WAP.T-MobileSignal.com. For WIrelessAdvisor, type: Wa00.com.

2) Another thing that worked for me on my Verizon phones, was the Google Mobile Converter. The url is: Enter a URL (http://www.google.com/gwt/n). This allows you to type in the url that you want to go to. Then it mods it into a format that the handsets browser and memory can understand.

I hope this helps. :)

[Edward]

1) To use the WAP site for T-MobileSignal, type in : WAP.T-MobileSignal.com. For WIrelessAdvisor, type: Wa00.com.

The above are the URL's that I have been using for here and WA. HowardForums gives me a "memory full" error when I go to wap.howardforums.com.

Puzzled...

Although I could pop the SIM into a Nokia 6800 that I have, to see what happens on that phone.

Edward, did you try using the google mobile converter URL that I posted above to see if that would work for you?

[Edward]

On the Nokia 6800, the Username graphic appeared as:


Userna

me:
Not exactly vertically, but a little better.

I have used the Google converter previously, for other web sites, but even with that, I noticed it did not format pages correctly. There were even a few that I ran into, where the Google converter was unable to reformat for a mobile phone screen. It's not perfect.

The Samsung displayed T-MS's WAP site without any issues, I just need to get that BT for it. :D

I'm glad to hear that the WAP site is working for you now. Thanks for informing us on how you resolved the issue, as this may help others who are having problems with this as well.

Ellen - it was short lived but I hope the admin can fix it. I changed the WAP Option language to WML from XHTML, lost the graphics and cannot change it back, the list is now empty. I PM'd Admin to let him know.

[Edward]

If you see all the graphics on the WAP site, DON'T change the language in the WAP Options preferences (until the Admin can fix it)! :(

[Ellen]

Is there a setting in your phones that you can use to change the settings back to the way they were before?

[Edward]

The setting does not work anymore, someone has to fix it, it's a web site software problem.

When you go into the WIForums Preferences, there is a selection WAP Options, this is where the WML/XHTML setting is.

After it was changed from XHTML to WML then saved:
The two items in the selection list disappeared, leaving an empty selection list.
The T-Mobile Signal graphics also disappeared, they were replaced with a generic "WIFORUMS" graphic.
It removed a link to save those preferences.

[Alex]

Edward, T-MobileSignal is going through some drastic changes. These changes will affect the WAP version of the site. I will do my best to see that this gets fixed. However, it won't be fixed until mid-next week my programmer said. Please bear with us!

I can wait. :)

I just wanted to clarify exactly what occurred when that setting was changed, so your programmer would know where to look to find the problem.

[Edward]

I accessed the WAP site with the Samsung phone today and for some reason still unknown to me, it displayed the missing entries and I was able to re-select XHTML so the site is now fully displayed (graphics and all). :D

[A_pheonix_boy]

why does T-mobile Block Network Access to Games and Applications on my Nokia 6133? I really didnt read the other pages due to time limits in my classroom in school, so i dont know if my question has already been answered. I downloaded Opera Mini, and it wont give me Access to the Network; same thing with the games i download from GetJar.

any help will be greatly apprecieated!
thanks in advanced!

Did you receive any kind of error message after you downloaded the program? If so, what did the error message say?

[Alex]

The WAP site is not functional yet. Since moving to the new domain, it has been non-functional. I will get it up asap but I'm waiting on the software team to help me that created the WAP software.

[A_pheonix_boy]

i just downloaded operag mini and it installed fine. The problem is that when it trys to connect to the network, a messagae pops out saying" network access not allowed. That message pops out everytime i try to use a game or application that needs network access. For ewample "GMAPS". No apps i download work cus of the phones message. "network connection not allowed". S6mething like that. ......................and thanks for the help ellen!

[Scooby214]

Any word on when a WAP site will be up and running? I do miss that functionality from the old forum.

[Alex]

I contacted the owner of the WAP software I used for the site. He's going to work on getting it up tonight (hopefully!).

[greenblood]

Hope it'll be back to normal soon
loading normal version on mobile device is a big pain (it's very slow on PDA, while it works betteron my new E61)
