HTC Viva and WIFI Problem Connection

I have an Unlocked HTC Viva, but the chip I use is Mexico-Telcel prepaid, NOT in plan, I tought that when the wifi is in use there is like a free of charge all you surf. But, all the time the phone makes a GPRS connection to my network and if I don't have money left in the prepaid card.. there comes an error like "There is an error trying to the GPRS service in your registered home network ". Is getting confuse... Why the system does that?? is that the way the HTC phones works in the wifi mode>?? I'd appreciate support ASAP... Thanks! Olvert!
This phone is Not G3 and the network we use is GSM 1900MHz

Hello, wifi is a sort of WLAN conection. you need a wireless router to be able to use wifi. there are two ways to connect to the internet on the touch viva. 1st way is by the sim card and that costs you a lot of money!!! the other way is by a wlan router, you can access to the internet as long as you want is you have a flatrate. My good tipp: switch off the gprs connection, it will only cost you a lot of money. you will still be able to make phone calls. Ilost about 60$ (i mean it!) by trying to access to the internet by gprs.

this is one of the biggest problems of VIVA.
one way is updating phone.

I bought an unlocked htc dash s621 (T mobile) and under communication manager the data connection and direct push dont work at all, i cant even click on it. Please what can i do?

For direct push, go to the start menu, and then click the Set Up Email icon. Follow the steps to set up email on your phone. I think that the Push Email icon will show up. But, I know that once you get email set up, you will be able to download email to your phone (just make sure you are in a good wi fi area or have a data connection with T Mobile.) For Data Connection, I think you will need to have a data plan with T Mobile. (Now, I'm a prepaid customer, so I use the $1.49 Web Day pass, and when I activate it, the Data Connection button is lit up.) Try that, and try calling T Mobile as well.

I have an htc hero and Want to cut the plan. Is there any way i can use a prepaid card on my htc hero?

Possible? Yes, Good Idea? not completly...

Here is what you are going to want to consider first, very few prepaid services use the type of Technology that the hero does. Secondly if your in contract that could incur in Term Fees or other fees, also most prepaid carriers still require data plans for smartphones,

On the Plus side this would be a great way to save money depending on your prepaid carrier option

At the start up idea logo shows in my htc touch

Hi,

Initially, Idea launched HTC Touch Viva handsets with their connections and a little customization favoring their services.

The handset that you have got, is an unlocked one (unlocked so that it can be used with any service provider). Hence, you see the Idea logo at the boot up.

Do not worry, the handset is genuine and original. I have the same one (with Idea logo) and it works perfectly (or rather say wonderfully).

Its a wonderful phone (Pocket PC). You just need to surf the web to see what all it can do for you.

Cheers.
