I dunno if your phone supports TDMA, but if you have a GSM plan, i think your SOL.

tehre are some phones out there (specifically from samsung through ATT/Cing) that offer both GSM and TDMA. Might need to work with them on that. if you switched to a GSM only phone, you will need to get a TDMA phone, or combo gsm/tdma.

Good luck.

As far as I know, 6340i works both on GSM and TDMA networks, so, if u have signed with both networks you should be able to get TDMA signal where there's no GSM. If you have signed both networks and you still can't get TDMA signal, try this:

» On the stand-by screen try typing *3001#12345# . This should enter the programming mode (if you can't see this, your phone is locked or manufacter-programmed to work solo on GSM networks - repeating, as far as I know).

» If you reached the programming screen (It should appear NAM1, NAM2, Security Code, etc.), select NAM1, then something like "Your Own Number" and type in your phone's number, and then Reset the phone

If it still didn't work, you'll need the Antenna Code: get another Nokia TDMA unlocked phone that is from the same carrier as yours, type in the same code as the above, enter in NAM1, and search Antenna Code (or something like it). Type in the same code in your phone's Antenna Code, the it should work. Otherwise, I recommend speaking with your phone carrier.

Anything else, just say.
