Can I make tmobile MDA compact III wi-fi?

essexsi_2

Good morning,

I have a MDA compact III on Tmobile with their web'n'walk, but its very slow and unresponsive most of the time.

Is there a way to make this device wi-fi enabled? It has a micro SD card slot that I am not using at the moment.

I'd appreciate anyones help or your experiences if you have done this.

Many thanks Si

I have one of these also & it is wifi enabled I believe

Go into comm manager ( signal bars at the top)

Then click the second image on the left & it should pick up any wifi signals.

However I have found it to be terrible as is the 3g & am changing it asap

Thanks for replying djkaizen.

Just tried that and it is not responding. I did read that the wifi on the Tmobile version was disabled, probably to promote their web'n'walk!!

Is there any such thing as a microSD wifi card?!? Would this be the way to go?

Cheers Si

All T-Mobile versions of this phone have Wi-Fi disabled, seemingly in hardware. The Chipset supports it though.

It's worth checking their forums to see if anyone has a solution.

Thanks for the links and your help.

djkaizen-looks exactly what I need, bet it will cost a bit when it does come out. If its not for a while I might have the opportunity of an upgrade with tmobile by then.

weegie.geek- thanks for the link will have a good read. Looks a bit techy for me but nothing ventured...

Thanks for your help Si
