I finally did the Cingular branding CAB. It should work fine on a Smartphone 2003 phone. It changes the Splash, Shutdown, and dial gif to Cingular. I have tried it on a Voq and SMT5600. Use at your own risk smile.gif.

Anyway download the zipped CAB, unzip to the cingularB.CAB, move the CAB to a folder on your Smartphone, I use TEMP and execute the CAB. Click "YES" when it warns about an unknown source.

You can remove the Branding by going to Settings> Remove Programs

Let me know if you have success.

*Update Feb 25, 2005. The CAB has been updated to fix the MSC:Dial gif. Thanks for pointing it our deu*. Anything else let me know.

Please find the CAB here:

Right now I have built a CAB that rebrands to T-Mobile and sets the configuration for ArcSoft MMS. A second CAB sets the GPRS settings. I am testing on my SMT5600. I needed to build the T-Mobile CABs first since I will not be able to test for Cingular. Once I have these CABs where I want them for T-Mobile I will redo for Cingular.

Abatis -

Thanks for the CAB. BTW, there is one issue - when dialing, the image is all messed up. I tracked this down to the :MSCdial entry being set as cing_splash.gif instead of cing_dial.gif.

Thanks again...

Sorry deu, you the man. Thanks for the input. T-Mobile will be rolling out and Cingular GPRS CABs. I love the 2003 SDK. It is basically back to DOS smile.gif.

Osinn, It just changes the Splash Screen Startup, Shutdown and dial bar to the Cingular logos.

I can do a CAB for GPRS settings but I need to have someone give me what they are using for GPRS settings plus the the of plan they have. I have already done this for T-Mobile.

Abatis,

Can you tell me how i could install this CAB?
Im getting my 5600 this friday and the first thing ima do is unlock it. Should I install this CAB afterwards and assume everything is up and running?

To install the Cab just move it from your PC over to a folder like "Temp" on the phone using Explorer. Once on the phone open the "Temp" folder with the phones "File Manager" and just click on the CAB file. It will auto execute. Reset (turnoff/on)your phone and you will have the cingular branding logos.

I have not added the GPRS setting yet as I m not familiar with what the various cingular plans use. I can do one that uses the setting from our FAQ if people want it.

You will have to add your GPRS setting manually see our Cingular FAQon this board.

Other than that you should be good to go. Your SMS and voicemail settings are actaully auto downloaded from the network.

This thead is for the Cingular CAB, not the T-Mobile. Just wanted to be sure you realized that. But to answer your question, the T-Mobile GPRS CAB will setup all the Data Connections you need for T-Mobile internet access. Without the CAB, you would have to manually enter in the settings since it will have the AT&T data settings.

Not at all. It simply gives the appearence of a Cingular branded phone, and sets up your data settings for you...
