Default AT&T Services Option Gone??

I just tried to go to:

Settings > Phone > AT&T Services

to check my minutes. Well...the "AT&T Services" option is no longer there. WTF!? Did they get rid of it on 3.1?? I mean, I can still type *646# to request the text with my info but it was just easier the other way. Why would they get rid of it??

Actually, just did something easier...

I just set up the number *646# as a contact called "Check Minutes". Now I just use the voice dial and say "Call Check Minutes" for the request. Works like a charm...

Good thinking!

Can't you get the same info using the free "myWireless" app?

Yeah but I find the myWireless app totally useless. I can access the same information pretty much by going to through the Settings. There is also less flexibility in the myWireless app as opposed to just logging on AT&T's site directly which I prefer to do anyway.

Most users complain about that app not working but I've never had an issue. I'd rather just use what's already setup on my phone

Have you tried "Cell Minute Tracker"? I just loaded it this morning. It looks a little better to me than does MyWireless.

Warning, once a paid app, it is now ad supported.

YMMV
