Recent phoning hacking scandal by Rad
I wonder how the News of the World was hacking so many phones. I would have imagined brute force attacks would have been detected very quickly and nipped in the bud? I remember a number of years ago O2 used to have a default voicemail PIN. Rather than only allow external access if you changed your PIN, people could access the voicemail of any O2 customer that hadn't changed their PIN from...

Phone dead? by Steve[_19_]
Have a N95 black - battery drained last night and when I plugged it in, nothing. Also nothing with my spare charger - although that sometimes has a bad connection depending on the angle its plugged in. Need to get a new phone anyway I think, but in the mean time, I need to get contacts and data off it, and back it up. What's the best way of achieving this? Pretty confident it will run with a...

"Refresh the network" by Paul[_6_]
Just got off the line to T-Mobile because for the last week or so any mobile calls I receive at home are unintelligible - the other person can hear fine, but at my end it's just garbage. Anyway, the customer service bod said that he would "refresh the network" and that would fix it by the end of the day. Anyone know what "refresh the network" actually means, or is it just nonsense?

Unlocking w200i Vodafone by Tosh
HI My son rec'd a new W200i for Xmas and was gutted to find that it was locked to Vodafone and he can't use his Tesco sim card in it. I've had a quick Google and there seem to be a few people claiming to unlock for £20+ unfortunately he's a kid and doesn't have £20 to spare and I can't help out with all the Xmas bills to pay. Is there a cheaper or free option? I can understand a network...

O2 and using a 3G phone for internet connection. by Garry Knight
Michael Chare wrote: You probably need to search for 'using your phone as a modem' (or just modem) Aha! Thanks. Didn't occur to me to search for such an old-fashioned term. I didn't think there was much modulating or demodulating going on in modern phones. --

Paying Monthly by Gared Haus
I'm guessing most of you folk here are on pay monthly price plans, right? I have been a PAYG customer for the last 10+ years and was thinking of moving to a Pay Monthly contract. I figured this would be better for me as I could have a better phone and mobile internet all included in my contract. I'm open to suggestions if I should stay with Vodafone or move to another company - as long as...
