Well here we go...I have had WM5 running for the last couple days now thanks to Turk. Mine is running on a 512meg SD card just fine FYI. I have all the bugs worked out so far I think. Got it app unlocked and the internet working finally.

So far I can already tell that reception is better. My wife and I both have cingular and we talk mobile to mobile alot and the calls to her are coming extremely clear now.

Over all I think it runs faster than 2003 but not as fast as 2002. There are times where its really responsive and other times where its extremely sluggish for a few seconds.

Battery life I havent had a chance to really tell yet because I am playing with it more than I ever did so I am usually charging it every day now ;P

Windows media player 10 is awesome, being able to sort your music just like your PC is pretty nice for us people that use the MPX200 as a mp3 player.

As far as apps go I havent really found anything that I cant install or isnt compatible with WM5. Clear vue installs just fine as well as agile messenger and beta player. I am also using the Resco Powertoys and explorer which seem to work pretty well.

Over all I would have to say its a definate keeper. If you have the ability to flash your phone with it I would recomend it(your milage may vary). The reception alone is reason enough for me to keep it.

I have mine flashed and running fine so far except for the internet. Anyone else having any problems setting up the connections? The cab files that were on the site will not work anymore so I manually put in the connections yet I still cant connect. It either just tells me to check my network coverage or it just goes back to the IE screen and does nothing.

So I read in the Review thread that 512meg SD cards dont work? Is this true? This is the card I have in mine atm http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=BA21943

Should I get another one before trying to flash it? If so what size should I get 256, 1gig? What seems to be working for everyone else?




EDIT: I went ahead and tried flashing it with the 512card I have, so far so good, phone is up and running. I'll see how it goes today if I need to buy anohter one. 512meg Cosair 40x works so far FYI.

Dunno if this helps or not but I am using WM2003 and I keep my wav/ringtones on the root of my SD card it the phone picks them right up in the Sounds menu.

Im curious what the quality of playback on a movie the MPX200 has? I havent gotten a SD card yet, just got the phone last week myself. I have downloaded the pocketencoder and the betaplayer.

I would just like to get some type of idea what movies you are going to be able to watch. Does it stutter alot during playback? etc. Also is playback better on WM2002 or WM2003?

I mostly bought the phone for the idea of using it a desent PDA, phone and mp3 player during travel and waiting for meetings. But the thought of being able to play some movies sounds pretty amazing. Thanks for any info

You may be interested in the following files...
CingularGPRS.zip
CingularBranding.zip

Just unzip the files, copy the .cab files to the phone (they will look like zip files on your computer), then locate them on the phone (from the phone) and execute.  You will be all set with a new look and the correct Cingular Data settings.  I do belive that you will need at least the Media Net plan inorder to take advantage of data on your phone...

THanks a ton! That did the trick =D

Just got my new unlocked MPX200, still running WM2002 havent flashed it yet. I am on Cingular. My service works great and I am really impressed with the phone, Love it so far.

But for some reason I cant get my wireless Internet to work. I upgraded from a V220 and the net worked fine on it. I am sure its just a setting somewhere(I hope) that im missing. Anyone have any ideas? I have pretty much everything set to Automatic at the moment.

Thanks for any help.
