Subject: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth


1. I can connect to a wireless network, however I can not browse the internet or check my mail, whats wrong?

MEdia Net is set up to connect through a proxy, because of this when you activate Wi-Fi it tries to use the MEdia Net connection. To stop this go to Start, Settings, Connections, Connections and under MEdia Net tap "set up my proxy server" and de-check "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet". You should now be able to use Wi-Fi correctly.

2. Does the 8125 support wireless 802.11g ?

Yes, you need to perform the "Enable 802.11g" Registry Edit.

3. Does Wi-Fi on the 8125 drain the battery quickly?

Yes, your battery life will significantly drop if you leave Wi-Fi on constantly, it is best to turn it off when you are not using it.

4. How do I setup Bluetooth ActiveSync with my computer?

First, put your computer into discovery mode and if you haven't already, turn on Bluetooth on your 8125. Hit the COM Manager hard button on the left side of the device to bring up the COM Manager. Tap Settings, Bluetooth Settings. Tap the Devices tab and select New Partnership.

It will now scan for all Bluetooth devices in range that are in discoverable mode. Select the name of your computer and tap Next. Now you can enter a display name for the computer, and make sure you check ActiveSync under "Select services to use from the device." and tap Finish.

The 8125 does support OBEX, in the past the Microsoft Bluetooth stack was much more stable in this aspect, however after trying the latest Widcomm Bluetooth Stack, I am happy to say that they work great and they support so many more Bluetooth Profiles than the MS ones.




Subject: Installing Programs


1. How do I install apps on my 8125?

There are two ways, first you can use the .exe installer. The .exe installer will install load the .cab file to Add/Remove Programs in ActiveSync, all you have to do then is sync your 8125 and the program will be sent to your phone and installed, simply follow the instructions on your 8125 to complete the installation. Secondly, you can copy the .cab file to your phone, you can put it in any directory, then use File Explorer to go to the location to where you saved the .cab file, simply tap it and the program will install.


Subject: Data Connections and Messaging


1. How can I add a POP3 or IMAP Email account to my device?

Is there a limit to the size of the mini SD memory card this phone will support? 1GB, 2GB, 4GB? Are there any other specifications I should look for in a Mini SD Card?

Kweezy157 Cingular 8125 memory (RAM) usage problem 4 Sep 8 2009, 9:57 PM EDT by Sgarrela
Thread started: Aug 29 2009, 8:01 PM EDT  Watch
Whenever I open more than 3 apps, 1 app crashes. My phone has a total of 44MB o RAM and whenever I close all open apps it tells me that I only have 20MB left of RAM. What is taking up all of that memory??? Its so annoying if I try to open web browser, Windows Media, and instant messenger at the same time my phone will auto exit out if IM'ing without warning, then any music playing will start skipping, and my browser will freeze up causing me to have to reboot the whole device. If I have 44MB of RAM then why am I not able to use it all???
