nokia 6133 and sms

[John Lapeyre]

Hi,

I have a model 6133, the US tmobile version of the 6131, I believe.
I am unable to retrieve SMS messages (with the propietary nokia
windows program, I can retrieve SMS, but I cant get the phone book).
Tmobile has changed somethings, like only authorized java apps have
access to internet; I don't know if this has anything to do with the
trouble.

I tried both AT and series40 protocols. AT can do several things:
eg get the phone book, but only partial records. series40 can do
more: get full phone book records and a few other things. But neither
seems to do sms.  (btw. does anyone know how to buy good batteries
for these phones? It may be impossible at this point)

 [ Now I also break the rfcomm connection. Notice how this makes a difference,
   when it should not, because I am not using rfcomm here. Maybe it is a timing 
issue? ]
