Worked for me today....9/30/2010

I can no longer call area code 907 either. this isnt good.

ret27m

I can call 907 but I do have a slight delay when talking, its tolerable though. The problem is the USA lower 48 transfers to Canada, Canada transfers to Alaska, there in lies the breakdown. I have found that NOT saving the Alaska phone number in your contacts and dialing the number manually each ...

I have a file that will allow you to install XPe on a drive larger than 1GB, I'm currently running a 2GB DOM in my thin client. It took me awhile to figure out how to do it but a very smart person on this site pointed me in the right direction.

ret27m

Still too many negatives with my TK, I cant get a local number and they promised I would have one by November, Still no number porting available, they keep promising but haven't delivered and I get a lot of stuttering with mine, As of now my MJ operates Flawlessly but I'm hoping TK gets it together.

ret27m

I bought a TK and so far I like my MJ better, if TK improves there service in the future I could change my mind.

ret27m

Flash drive and ram are too small, looks like you didnt do any research befor you bought a thin client....sorry, it will probably work with a few cheap upgrades tho

ret27m

stroths I grabbed one of those netbooks because I had a $25.00 coupon from mwave plus the $10.00 off from the AD. So I got it for 84.99. Shipping was 11.77 so total to the door was $96.76 it was a steal, it got delivered today and its quite impressive, I upped the ram to 2gb and wiped off linux and ...

GV is a great service for my needs. Its great that its free.

ret27m

do a restart wait 5 min do a commit and restart, that helped me, i wasnt catching an update. that said 256mb ram is really thin.

ret27m

Ditto norml jack, except for a minor hic-up here and there mine has preformed way beyond my exspectations, and has saved me hundreds of dollars too boot, i fired ma bell long ago.....

ret27m

LOL az2008 has ran alot of good folks away from this site, i rarly even come here any longer because all he likes to do is argue with people, thank goodness those good folks he ran off invited me to a private forum that dont have people running behind every post and demeaning the poster. Keep an eye ...

ret27m

Jim just a heads up, a 2gb dom will work but you are going to have to apply a winxp hack to make it work.

ret27m

they are not always aware that problems will occur, my area is back up and running now, I was only down a few hours.

ret27m

atleast they are aware of the problem...

Kiefer: We do apologize for the inconvenience it may caused you

Kiefer: We are aware of the problems you're facing right now

Kiefer: And we're now taking a look on this

Kiefer: Are you still with me James?

James: yes i am

Kiefer: Can I ask you to try to ...

ret27m

im on with the help desk now...lol...im sure it wont be a help, everyone here in my town is having the same problem

ret27m

it seems as tho everyone here in florida..atleast nw fl.. is having this issue. i dont know if its affecting many others in other states, i do know the the help desk is quite busy so id say alot of folks are affected.

ret27m

as crazy as this sounds tony, do a restart and as soon as the MJ loads and says ready to use do a commit and then do a restart and see if that fixes you problem.....

ret27m

Kokkos

How cheap I'll buy them.......let me know.

ret27m

There is some good info in that link.

ret27m

For MOST people its a simple plug and play, I use a common base with 3 phones http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product. ... id=9240151

Hope this helps.

ret27m

George It looks like I found a T5730 as a trade for a laptop that was given to me, I have 3 laptops and certainly didnt need a forth besides the laptop was only a single-core celeron......I'll know more tomorrow.

ret27m

The people in Best Buy and Radio Shack were surprised that they had an outdated version of the MJ, even though they recently received them. In both stores, they asked what the difference was and I told them about the physical difference (white chip under the "J"), and the anti echo and sound ...

ret27m

You should have posted this in Rants and Raves.

ret27m

isleblue65

Before you go on another site and tell people something that you dont know to be fact maybe you better confirm that they are indeed an older ver. I know a few folks that have gotten MJ's from BB recently and they dont have the white rectangle and they work fine and have no echo problem ...

ret27m

mine works fine on my T5710

ret27m

Here is the dump you requested Lisa...hope I can figure out how to attach it.

Im going to have to email it to you I CANT figure out how to put it in the thread...sorry, my numbers are way diff than yours tho.

ret27m

sorry this took so long but I'm working with one wing here and there is a GlidePad hooked to the Thin Client T5710 XPe (if that info matters) and here is what I got following ar2008's instuctions. I hope this helps, again my eyes were not lying to me I DEF got an upgrade today and I DEF had the 21 ...

ret27m

Yes i got the 21 dec update im 100 % positive and I was just forced one about 15 min ago also. Let me try to grab that info. Have you tried a restart by the way? I did let the PC remain off for just over 15 min befor I restarted. Just to let you know.

ret27m

Now this is getting strange, I was on Live Chat this morning from my PC trying to get a concrete reason to the 60 min call termination, The call didnt go well, it was with a person who did not have a good grasp on english and I kept insisting on a reason as to why there was a 60 min time limit on ...

ret27m

Thats what I'm seeing, it DOES NOT seem to be geographical at all, I have map tacs scattered EVERYWHERE, My mind is blown as to how its only affecting certain folks. Did some of us get different upgrades, that HAS to be it.

ret27m

I certainly would like to know why ( or how ) it doesnt affect all people, I didnt want to tell them that it didnt affect me, I was afraid that I would have been blown off.

ret27m

For what it worth here is the chat log from a chat I had with LIVE HELP, 26 DEC 2008, I tried LIVE CHAT from my house but got a person who had ABSOLUTLY no grasp of english ( altho mine isnt the best and I was born here lol ) so since I had to go to a friends house we tried at his house and got a ...

ret27m

Yes go into your account and change the info to the person you want to give it to, you can even give it a new phone number ONE TIME for free, after that its a $10.00 charge.

ret27m

As of 20 min ago I have had 94 people contact me 71 are unaffected 23 are affected so at this point its right at 75/25 but thru out the day it has varied from 80/20 to 70/30 but has stayed within those parameters. Sorry about my spelling...its getting late...lol plus I'm a terrible speller.

ret27m

hmm this is an interesting twist, I got a PM from a guy in Elizabethtown Ky who was having the 1 hr limit on his calls dialed or received, he had just finished a call this evening and the call lasted 1:40 min and he hung up and was not terminated. He did state that he didnt dial out it was a ...

hsweiss

I'm pretty well tone deaf but my wife said the same thing that the sound quailty was MUCH better with the new upgrade, with these old beat up ears of mine I could'nt hear a differance.

emiliomcol

Glad I could help

I'll find that post to verify that if I have to read every post on here...lol.

ret27m

So far all reports are that we will be back to no limit in a few days or by the end of the year, I have no proof positive of that but I feel it will, I'm one of the lucky one's with no time limit, my friend in Soldotna didnt get affected either, there seems to be no real rhyme or reason as to who ...

ret27m

I'm positive that the local retail outlet MJ's start the day you first activate them, I THINK I read a post awhile back saying that the MJ's from the MJ website didnt start the year until you plug it in and activate it...that being said I dont want to lead you down the wrong road, I'll see if I can ...

ret27m

Did you buy it from a local outlet or did you order it from the MJ website..just curious..It should be fine and start your year the day you activate it.

ret27m

You will receive an email alerting you, you will also be able to download and listen the the voice mail.

ret27m

No Thanks needed I was glad it worked for you.

ret27m

lol I have you mapped, let me know if you break the 60 min barrier.

ret27m

Keep trying, somtimes it takes a few times to get thru, atleast it did for me.

ret27m

truwoman

Ahole is a bit harsh. And unfair

ret27m

Yes you are right grow up and please get a life, you are quite childish.
You are like a playground bully.

ret27m

gee I have not met anyone who it has happened too big deal, there is no hiddin message in there, you are trying to put a bogus assumption where there isnt one, you are going behind me and trying to discredit pretty much anything I say, if you cant get the last word it eats away at you, you need to ...

ret27m

Yes I'd say it is time you grew up and not treated people the way you do, if they dont agree with you you get childish. And try to badger them into submission, I'll not allow that to happen to me.

ret27m

Yes Sir ar2008, it seems if its not sanctioned by you its of no use, again I'm very sorry I contributed, I'll not let it happen again.
