I dont think that Orange offers UMA service.

they do my friend used to beta test it and its out of beta now and it still operate on both his uma enabled phones

[John Clark]

Under Options >Mobile Network do you have the option for Wifi Only, Wifi Preferred, Mobile Network Preferred, Mobile Netowrk Only?

oky if a mdo can close this thread ive just bean intouch with orange they only offer um on nokia and a samsung phone atm they will be enabling ti for more uma enabled phones in the future

[John Clark]

Kinda what I thought but this stuff changes daily. Hopefully, they get it supported soon as it's a nice feature.

on another nto thing like bb messenger and many over internet enabled apps can i get them to work over wifi i have a data package but i dont have much bandwidth on my package and ti cost a fortune if i go over so im wondering are most net enabled apps usable over wifi also in the uk u cant download the aim and msn clients from mobile.blackberry.com does any one no were i can get an OTA installer for these

also thank you john for putting up with my bad spelling bad typing and trying to help me i thank you its not often u get mods like ur self again thank you

Yes, even without UMA your BBData plan data will go over wifi. You can test this by simply turning the mobile network off in Manage Connections.

so in other word ill get the data plan BUu i wont get charged the bandwidth is that wat ur saying?? jsut doble checking

[John Clark]

Correct. Your data will be coming in off the wifi network. I can turn my mobile network off completely and still send pin messages, email, etc. If you have the mobile network on for phone calls and send pins, email, etc. watch the arrows. They blink fast indicating it's going via wifi. The EDGE arrows blink slow and steady.

ahaha ur tmobile u have edge here we jsut have gprs :( brw anychance of talkign to u on BBmessenegr ??

[John Clark]

I don't give out my pin/email....sorry.
