I want to mod my phone because I saw the stuff that D/\SH did and I like it. I was really doin it to hopefully upgrade the GPS on the phone. I was going to run the 6.1 update, but didn't want to lose all of my contact information. How can I get around not losing my contact information?

come on bro. please search as this has definatley been answered already. You need activesync on your pc for xp or windows mobile device center for vista. You will also need microsoft outlook.

have never used outlook. I have it on my computer but don't really use it that much. I just got my Active Sync to work though so I'm making progress. What do I need outlook for?

1. sign up for an account at www.mail2web.com
2. go to start/programs/activesync on your phone.
3. click the lower right softkey.
4. click new server source
5. enter your email address (be sure to add the @whatever.com
6. than click next and it will come up with the username and password field. in this field after the username be sure to add @whaterver.com otherwise the last box wont gray out.
7. keep save password checked and move onto the next page.
8. here it will ask you for the domain.... you will want to type in mobile.exchange.mail2web.com
9. than click next and set what you want to sync like your contacts, calender, tasks, etc........
10. click sync
11. DONE.|

ok, got through and registered my account with mail2web but and I think that it sync'd my files but can't find them
I looked through outlook but haven't seen them yet or don't know where there at. what can i do?

Aftrshck · #8 07-31-2008, 12:15 AM

did you do it to your PC or to mail2web????

Bestofview · #9 07-31-2008, 12:27 AM

I signed up for a mail to web account and then tried to sync my phone up to my pc. I thought that was the way to do it.
I'm new to this. I want to figure it out though.

Aftrshck · #10 07-31-2008, 12:32 AM

in order to sync to mail2web...

make sure you set up according to the information given....
once logged into mail2web look at menu on left side

click "my email settings"
click "View ActiveSync Settings"
follow the instructions....and then let it sync.....there is a config file there you can use if you need to....it took me a couple times before I figured it out....but if you do what i said, you should be golden....

good luck man....

Bestofview · #11 07-31-2008, 12:36 AM

Aftrshck · #12 07-31-2008, 12:41 AM

your welcome....like i said...it took me a few times...and once it does it....its nice.....im a little more at ease now.....i even use PIMbackup as well.....this way I have it in a few different places.....and if i could figure out how to export to a spreadsheet...i would do that as well..... :)

Ok next question!! I hate to get on people's nerves. But this the more I ask, The more i learn....anyways. I tried to put the Diamond theme on the touch (Jstar's version) but it keeps giving me an error message on my phone. Run the application first and then run this file within the application. My question is where is the application?

please keep the thread on topic and ask in the thread of the application you are trying... there is many different apps with the diamond look.
