Can you tell mehow you got the internet working
By Catina , 07/07/08 1:02 PM (CommentID #767800)
Hi, I just bought this phone (CECT P168)for my husband, and he apparently is having some of the same issues as are being talked about. Anyway, I did some research on the internet, and you can get all your answers by going to www.yzcompany.com/ebay/p168-FAQ.htm It has different links you can click on depending on which phone service you are using. (ex.AT&T, T-mobile, etc..)

I just got my phone today so I am sure I will have many questions to come but my first is that I connected it to the usb on my computer and my computer does not recognize it. I went to my computer, device manager, nothing. Tried all 8 of my usbs! It seems to be charging though...it shuts off then lights up black saying "bluetooth" then does the same thing over and over every 20 seconds or so. Does this mean it is charging??

Jp, I got email to work now...apparently I cannot pop Gmail on this phone it might be due to the fact that i need SSL which i didn't see the option for on the phone.

Can you share with me how I get the A88 to be used as a modem on my PC? GPRS works fine on the phone itself but i need to know how to use it as a modem on my PC. Thanks
By JP , 28/05/08 7:28 AM (CommentID #701870)
Follow everything to the letter.
To setup for ATT is as follows
MEdia Net (ME & N in caps
WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
Password is CINGULAR1 (CAPS)
Data Account MEdia Net
APN wap.cingular.com
User name WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
PW CINGULAR1
Auth Type set to Normal
and hit activate account
Connection Type HTTP
I have tried these and have yet to get it to work evidently I am missing something but I will keep at it until i can get it to work. Plus shake and tilt does not work yet on the A88. At least I have not gotten it to work. I got my pictures to slide by touching the screen.

By Noman , 25/05/08 11:04 AM (CommentID #696442)
Well first: AT&T GPRS direction is clearly included in one of the post bellow, so people please refer to that post and stop asking about it, one tweak I may add try port 8080 in the proxy setting if port 80 is not working.
Second: new area is there any update for the BOIS software (OS) for this phone to enhance the phone for the browser, the look and feel? If any one has any idea please share it.

do you have AT&T? They tried but since it is a unlocked phone they referred me to Apple. I will call back again and see if they can give me the settings. which set of settings did you change?
By reneelynnhart , 23/05/08 6:58 AM (CommentID #692204)
you have to contact the phone company you have service with & they'll program it with you over the phone. It took us about 2 hours to do this but it is working amazingly now I have absulutly no complaints

THE DEFALT PINE FOR THE CECT P168 IS 1122
By TM , 15/05/08 7:07 AM (CommentID #678663)
I received my new CECT P168+ last week and it worked great until two days ago when I got a low battery warning. I switched the battery to one I had just charged and now when I press the on/off button, I get the Bluetooth screen and then the screen goes black and all of the buttons remain lit until I disconnect the battery.
I was given a suggestion of charging the batteries for 12 hours straight. I did this and still the problem remains. Any advice you could give would be greatly appreciated.

i just got the cect p168 yesterday and i had the same problem and i resolved so if you want it fixed so you can do picture messageing and to be able access t-zones then dial 611 and get the alternate number and call them on a seperate phone ad tell the customer support that you just got the cect p16 and that you need the setup for WAP and picture messaging and they will talk you through what needs to be done takes about 30 minutes.

Can you use the Suncom internet (hiptop feature) when using the P168? I just purchasing one and the phone works with my simcard so i bought the internet package and i couldnt get it to work. A suncom rep told me a lady got hers to work o na iphone threw the suncom internet package. Is there a setting i have to change on my phone to make it link up to the net?

If you press "send Receive" and then press "abort" it will take you to the email's inbox, send etc. Press on in box and you can then access your emails. The problem is that you will only be able to see the header. I have the same problem and I do not know what to do from there.

- go to menu
- settings
- phone setup
- display characteristic
- slide to unlock
switch that setting to on. after a while it locks your phone and requires you to have to slide a bhutton on the touch screen across to unlock it.

Bought two CECT A88 Hiphone I32 phones for a friend and we can't get them to work they show service . He is on the GSM network and the area supports 1900 MHZ according to AT&T but it will not connect when tring to call , any help . Post or Email ( R34SklnNsn@aol.com )
By carlosf , 24/04/08 8:35 AM (CommentID #649808)
Sorry, didnt explain my problem very well earlier ! I have always had internet / web access on my mobile (through vodafone), but when I called them to ask for the configuration settings, they ask me what type / model phone I was using. I could'nt say HiPhone, otherwise the phone line would of probably gone dead ! (I take it that configuration settings are different for each type phone ? Or are they ? )Sorry for my lack of knowledge !

If anyone is having issues with getting online and with the MMS go to www.nokia.co.uk and download the settings for the Nokia 2610 to the Cect through your number. It comes as a package so after 2 clicks you have no issues in connecting, its all done for you. Its also free.

By Melvin Smith , 08/04/08 9:06 PM (CommentID #618747)
First you need to convert your songs that are wav. to mp3. You do this by downloading a wav. to mp3 converter from the internet (its free). After you do this then you put the songs back on your phone. Go to the audio player, then go to list, then select the folder my music. Then you click add (you may have to add each song one by one, but it works)

By Trouble4u , 15/03/08 1:42 PM (CommentID #560077)
I wanted to let you guys know, if your phone shows EMERGENCY only on it, that means that you are in the 850 band range of your cellular provider. This means that you will either not have a phone to use or you will have lots of dropped calls. This is due to your phone only working on the 900/1800/1900 bands. The 850 band is more prevalent in rural areas, so unless you live in a large town or city, I would definitely stay away from this phone. Your best bet would be to CALL your cellular provider and ask them what band their towers broadcast in your area, then you will know for sure.

By Psytaur@netzero.net , 13/03/08 12:20 AM (CommentID #553236)
Most folks not geting a signal have a 900/1800/1900 phone, though it was claimed as quad band. Anyone with this phone is OK if you have t-mobile (and don't roam into a 850 area), or ATT urban, but half the US has the 850 band. If yours' said 850 optional, you do not have the 850 band.The 900 band is not supported in the US.

Okey now it is working adding to what computertech.1990 says to setup AT&T internet when you choose HTTP it will ask you for proxy setting here what you need to type: 066.209.011.032 and port 80.

It is now obvious to me that this phone sucks. Don't waste your money on it. It will end up not working. Trust me, I've spoken to over 100 people who have bought this phone. Everyone has a completely different problem with the phone.
The phone may be cheap and look cool, but it will kill your communication skills.

I had to go on YouTube and search a bunch of vids to find out how to open mine! You just push down on the "center panel" and push toward the bottom of the phone. It doesn't look like the whole bottom half slides off, but it does.

Hi,

I just bought the phone a few days ago. I can’t seem to figure out how to make the incoming calls show the name of the person and not just the number.
Also I can’t seem to get the phone to have different rings for different people. It always seems to revert back to one of the ring tones that came with the phone. I downloaded some ring tones and they play alright but seem to revert back to one of the original ones.
Can you tell me how I can delete the original ones and add more of my own??
I also can’t seem to get my email to work.
I sure hope you can help with some of these questions.
Thanks

Hi. I just recently bought the CECT P168+ device. I added music and videos. But Now I can't seem to actually get it to connect to me computer anymore. I Connect it to my computer and its tell me I need to install device driver. Which I have no idea why. I thought this phone was plug and play. Does any one here have the drivers for the P168, or at least let me know what I can do so solve my problem? Thank in advance.

By SmUrFiZzLe , 28/01/08 7:35 PM (CommentID #451289)
Ok, let me answer alot of questions, then I have a few.
The phone had a unique OS, not really made by a large company(Windows or Mac or Linux)
The best format for any file to be in is as follows:
Sound(mp3's): 64kbps to 128kbps
pictures(jpg, gif) 320x240, try to keep to 80 kb and less
video: mp4 and 3gp smallest frame rate possible.
When you connect your device to the computer, make sure that you do not use many usb devices at once, webcam, mic, mouse, keyboard, then your phone. Try to keep it simple until your computer can be used to the phone. You may have bad USB drivers or they may not be up to date. USB 2.0 or 1.1 is ok. Your phone will ask you which type or connection you would like to have, you have the option of either mass storage(so that you can put stuff onto your memory card), or webcam (which you can use to mainly take pictures with, video is a little harder). I have had this phone for now four days, but have successfully modded alot of it. Also if you have tmobile, I can offer you free information on how to setup your mms, plus make sure that your phone can get on the internet via tmobile servlets.
Questions that I have:
Does anyone know the direct website for this phone, being the manufacturers page?
Does anyone know what platform of Java this phone is using?
email at wowiezowie@hot-shot.com or kintaka717@gmail.com or wowiezowie717@yahoo.com or americaonlinesupport@mail.com with any more questions.

for all of you thats having problems with the ph one like goin on the net and receiving sms or mms messages. you need to configure data account and connection type to do so say you have tmobile sim. put your sim card on your old phone not the cect p168 . and on the tmobile phone look for proxy and home page and port write it down and look for those settings on the cect p168 . on the cect you can choose between wap and http try http if that doesnt work try wap.

Anybody that wants the new updated version that support ATT networks please contact me. I have realized alot of people are cheated that there is a quad-band. There is no quad-band version the new updater version which has slide function and other cool features come with 900/1800/1900 and 850GHZ is optional so you have to check the back to see if it support it. So be careful anybody wants to get one can contact me at cectphones@gmail.com. 100% quality guarantee not like other fake phones bad quality phones sold on ebay and other places that die the minute you get it. I provide all the support you need when you get the phone with alot of extra accessories. Interested shoot me an email. Working on my site right now what would include all the top quality CECT phones including the new released James Bond watch phone.
Thanks again

hi, i jut got this fone last night (p168) and i cannot get my mp3's to play, i can get them to go onto the card, but it wont play the songs at all, theres no play option. and the songs wont show up on the cards list in the audio player either, im stuck and wouldnt have a clue. i just wanna play my mp3's.
if it makes any difference i copied them from a cd and then file transfered using my laptop.
