E6 General Chat Motorola ROKR E6 is somehow a candybar version of the A1200 as they functions very similarly but with far more multimedia capabilities!

3. Select “Info Service” option.
4. Turn the service on.
5. Go to “Active Channels” option.
6. Select “Delete Channel” option using the button on the left bottom screen and delete existing channel.
7. Select “Add Channel” option.
8. Type 50 and add the channel (Channel: 50).
9. Save and exit.
10. You got the Cell Info on your ROKR E6 working now!

Many thanks Asheesh for exploring!
Have just tuned it on -
is that four-digit number under the name of Cellular Provider and Date - this cell ID?
How it can be used?

well depends on the country. Here in Asia ( I am from India ), channel 50 is used to send the cell info to the handset... which here in our country is the cell name that the operators broadcast....

this is a good way to have some kinda local GPS information to know which
area/street of the city are you in. The name is typically the area name of the GSM tower your cell phone is under.

Yeah, that's what I get. Many thanks again. Now I'm just trying to figure out what is the use of it...
unless I have disclosed info on all Vodafone broadcasting spots in UK linked to Global Positioning data in that case I woould be able to use it instead of GPS, ehehehe. I just wonder whether a common customer has an acces to such an info

Tha thankees again.

yes a common customer does have access to this info as it is nothing but the area names where your service provider nearest tower to you is. ie. the cell your are currently roaming under..

a lot of applications ( which i used to use in symbian in my SE P900 previously) used to use this info and call themselves the GPS application !

its a free GPS for us

I'm facing some problems here.......

I cannot add the channel 50.
There is already a channel 0 there but when I try to delete it, it says that it has been deleted but it doesn't go away....

I'm having E6 02P f/w, bought from Middle east...

Was your phone hooked to a specific operator ? I dont see otherwise why you should not be allowed to change the channel.
