E62 Convert Cingular to T-Mobile

[jarchor]

I bought a new Nokia E62 Cingular phone, paid for an unlock code, unlocked it so I could use it with my T-Mobile account. I can call out and receive calls and recieve text messages. I can't send text msgs out or connect to T-zone, as all of the Cingular garbage is still on the phone. Can someone point me in the right direction so I can use my T-mobile services?

Go to the Nokia Configurator and get the settings for T-Mobile service, that should enable the use of T-Zones and MMS. For SMS you'll need to find out the right SMS message center number and program it into the phone — if you have an older T-Mobile phone, you can place your SIM there, check the number, then put the SIM back into E62 and program it in. Ultimately you may want to flash it with generic firmware, that's the only way to get rid of all the junk.
