3 Planet UK on nitdroid
 

As there's no 3 UK support for N900 I installed nitdroid to use their Skype on Three software. No problems with installation here.

Every time I go to My3 using 3G (not WiFi) it reports that I am trying to access my account from outside 3 network, most likely because I am connecting using WiFi. I've set up an APN manually to use three.co.uk with no luck. If I go to planet 3 from N900 it goes to my account without any problems even though 3 doesn't sell/support N900 on their network.

Similar thing happens if I try to log in to my Skype account using 3 Skype software. It just says it can't log me in and to try again later - I assume that's because it thinks I am not on 3 network.

Has anyone had any luck finding the right settings for that? Is that even possible on nitdroid? Thanks a lot!

So.. basically Planet UK is not free... I mean 3 ;)

:D Oh... Come on... It was late :)

I should probably ask this on nitdroid forums as well. I'll give it a go.

Hi
I have a 3 uk sim and use skype on the n900 all the time with no problems..I don't have nitdroid installed, I just use it through the built in phone app.
I take it that doesn't work for you or is there something in their 'skype on 3 software' that you want?

Oh no, n900 built in Skype works like a charm for me. As well as Planet 3 and other 3 services.

The reason I wanted a Skype application supported by 3 is that they offer free Skype phone calls that are routed through their network. When you are on Three and call Skype it gets connected through their gateway rather than using 3G data connection.

Well, I have never gone over the limit with my unlimited 3 Internet :) when calling Skype from n900 but I found the call quality to be superior if it is connected through their Skype service rather than 3G - tested that on my Nokia E71.

Ah, I see, now I understand. Sorry, can't help you then, as 3 still think I have an N95. Everytime I refuse an upgrade they knock a bit more off my monthly bill, or give me more minutes ;-)

I'm with 3 too and I have no troubles at all with planet 3. Not tried skype though.

Kind of the same here :)


Wow, can you access Planet 3 running nitroid? Did you have to change any settings?

Re: 3 Planet UK on nitdroid
 

Sorry no :P Not tried nitdroid yet. I'm not sure why it's not working for you. I'll install it one day and report back if I get any troubles

It's quite weird actually as I am using exactly the same APN settings as on Maemo.
