VIRGIN GPRS settings - General Topics

Despite all my efforts with Virgin Mobile in the UK I cannot get the correct GPRS settings. They claim their network supports GPRS.
Has anyone set it up?

virgin gprs settings
What are you settings?

Virgin GPRS
I can connect using the setting supplied on the virgin site but I cannot browse web pages - I get the page is not available message box.
I do get the small [GPRS] displayed at the top of the internet explorer bar but havent managed to view a web page or use MSN messenger over GPRS.
If any one has I'd love to know the settings please : )
Ian

It could be the same as O2, you are allowed only wap access over gprs.

GPRS on unlocked O2 XDA
Ok is anyone using a UK unlocked O2 XDA2 using a PAYG SIM (any network - dont mind) and able to browse internet and use msn messenger?
If you are please can you let me know the network and your settings? I have read most of the previous posting and have not managed to set up this up yet - surely its just me being thick and it's possible
Many thanks

Hiya
yes used both O2 and now virgin in an unlocked XDAII - at this moment trying to figure out the settings for it all but getting there - will update soon.

GPRS on unlocked O2 XDA
many thanks look forward to your reply - can you detail all the setting you are using under connections etc please?
Not too bothered about the MMS but would definately like to have web and msn working

Ok here are the settings, but i am having problems - if i use the IP it doesnt connect, but if i don't it connects but i don't get any response from pages - i have noticed the xda is deleting the zeros(shown in red) - but as i gather this is normal for an IP to do this? (sysadmins advise?)

What are the O2 GPRS settings?

Can someone tell me what the setting are for the GPRS connection for the standard O2 GPRS connection? I've managed to delete mine, and I really don't fancy doing a hard reset. I guess I need to know the APN + username/password/domain stuff. Can anyone help?
look or search in the network forum tons of posts include gprs settings to some or all mayor cellphone companys
Go to the O2 Active interface, select My XDA / Connections. Then select your country, Prepaid or Postpaid (contract) GSM or GPRS and click Finish.
It will setup GPRS for you !
Thanks!
Thanks for the info chaps. I've now got it working again.
excuse me guys, where can i find the O2 active interface and set up my GPRS settings?
On the XDA1 ? i have no idea, look for an O2 logo and click it.
o2 GPRS is dear as hell anyway, 2.33 per MB.. i miss my internet

Problems with uk T-mobile GPRS settings for Treo 750

Hello guys
Please help! I've just got my Palm Treo 750v unlocked. The phone works fine on T-mobile but I can't get a GPRS connection. I've tried changing the settings and setting up a new t-mobile GPRS connection but i still can't get it connected.
I seem to have a wap contract connection (I presume this is preinstalled by Vodafone and must be Windows reg related) which always overides when i reboot the Palm.
If you can help I would be really grateful

1) go to start / settings / connections
2) if an existing connection exists click manage existing connections or add a new modem connection
3) if existing connection click edit or tap New
4) enter name - e.g. T-Mobile Inter.
5) select a modem - cellular line (GPRS, 3G)
6) access point name - general.t-mobile.uk
7) user name - t-mobile
8) password - one2one
9) click finish
you should be good to connect now
btw - you can always call t-mobile for support - they are really helpful
I tried this but after entering the name and modem the Treo asks 'Enter the number exactly as it should be dialed.'. What number do I put in here? I then tried using GPRS instead and I just get 'No modem at the above number.'.

If it is asking for a number, it sounds like you are setting up a WAP connection and not a GPRS connection.

What are the proxy settings for Cingular Palm 750 with T-Mobile UK sim card?
I've unlocked my Cingular Palm Treo 750 and can make voice calls without any problem.
I still can't access the internet.
I've entered the settings and when I launch the browser, it first show 'locating' and then 'opening' in the status bar, but the web page never opens.
I know that with Cingular there were some proxy settings and so I wonder if I need to enter any here.
The proxy fields are:
1. This network connects to the internet
2. This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
3. Proxy Server (name)
4. Http:
5. WAP
6. Secure WAP
7. Socks

i recommend the cruise. got it from expansys.gr WWE rom.you can add greek fonts and characterset with software. kaiser bit bulky for me. +fm radio on cruise. use pocket navigator 7 for cy.
I have done all the above for the mms cyta settings to my Polaris. I can send a MMS as well as emails but I have a problem with internet explorer. When I try to open the Internet explorer and Opera, it automatically connect to mms gprs, but I cannot connect to the internet. When using the explorer I get the following message
''Could not connect to remote server.''
Also everytime I do a soft reset I got the following message:
''The operator does not exist in the database. Please contact your operator for the connection settings.
Connection setup will redirect you to the connections screen.''
and when I close this notification it directs me to the connections.
Can you please help?

O2 MMS settings

Just started getting a problem with the MMS on my Serra and not sure if anyone can let me know theirs please.
Under connections/My ISP I have
Mobile Web - Cellular Line (GPRS,3G), mobile.o2.co.uk, o2web/password, DNS 193.113.200.200, Alt DNS 193.113.200.201
Mobile Web 2 - Cellular Line, mobile.o2.co.uk, o2web/password, DNS 193.113.200.200, Alt DNS 193.113.200.201
My Work Network
02 Active - Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G), wap.o2.co.uk, o2wap/password, user server specific
MMS Settings
o2uk - Gateway 193.113.200.195 port 8080, server address http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002. Connect via My ISP
Thanks
Sorry all fixed myself, my proxy settings were incorrect
What exactly was the error - I still cannot get MMS to work even with your seetings from your post?
I found out that mine was that a proxy server was enabled. I hook mine up to my laptop while in the office to charge and activesync with my Exchange server. Hadn't realised that it also enables my office proxy server.
crazyC, is the SIM in your Serra on O2 contract or Pay and Go? I'm guessing it's the former, but if it's the latter I know the settings...
Is it just MMS that's not working, or is your data connection (via telephone I mean) not working either?
It was just MMS that did not work.
I am on contract, and after a lot of digging and trialling of cabs that should have fixed it, but didn't, I have sussed it out and tested it.
I will roll the settings into my O2 setup cab, test it, and then post it if anyone wants it.
YES! Please post it.
I am using these settings on my contract o2, htc touch pro. all my 3g and internet works... just no mms.
I have sat here for four hours now messing around with it...
any chance of posting the settings that worked for you?
Try this
MMS Settings
o2uk - Gateway 193.113.200.195 port 9201, server address http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002. Connect via My Work Network
Other connections as per the normal O2 set up.
'My Work Network' shows up as O2 Active
Dont forget to set the O2MMS server as the default under MMS options
I havent tested this yet, but this cab SHOULD insert the O2 MMS settings - note you must already have the correct O2 network setup for calls and data, this is just the MMS bit.
im also having prblems with this, using the new Elite RC4. Im gunna reflash it and try again cuz i have fiddled with the settings too much
Edit - i tried the cab and the setting listed above it and neither worked for me
I have called O2 to see if they can help me and they sent me the some lame ass intruction which are exactly the same as on here... except afte you set up the o2web settings it says to use auto download for the rest :/
Whats the deal witht he proxy for the o2 active settings are they supposed to be on or off and if on, what do i set them as?
Installed the original O2 ROM to get all the settings working properly. It seems the missing details are in the WAP Proxy ones.
start - settings - connections - connection settings - manage existing under the 'my work network' (or whatever you renamed it too) - proxy (ensure use proxy is ticked) - advanced
WAP - 193.113.200.195:9201
SECURE WAP - 193.113.200.195:9203
Other than that settings are as they have been mentioned previously
MMS issues
I have extensively searched forum after forum and this seems to be the only thread with the sort of info i am searching for. I have installed TPC V3.1 Rom With required radio, everything works including MMS, however, no matter what settings i try i cannot receive normal sized pictures and any MMS videos go straight to the O2 website and all i get is a message your phone is not compatible with this type of message. Can anyone help, its really annoying............
I have tried the above .cab file and it doesn't work for me either.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Try some of these reg edits.
Thanks, but that is more for increasing the send size limit of mms, I can send them fine, but my network O2 cannot determine what phone I have and therefore only allows me to receive the smallest possible sized attachement.
I have tried numerous settings and radios to adjust this I've even tried the get settings feature and I get a txt back sorry we are unable to blah blah blah. with out going back to O2 stock rom i'm running out of options.......
Also I have never attemped to edit the registry
Again thank u for your reply......
EDIT......
Attempted reg edit, has had no affect, am I doing something Wrong.......?

Cannot send MMS with HTC TP2 - Chunghwa

Hi All,
I've searched a bit in the forums and threads and tried some stuff but to no avail. I have a HTC Touch Pro 2 (unlock) bought in Taipei, Taiwan where I currently live. I use Chunghwa service with 3G and GPRS enabled. I put the latest Rhodium T-Mobile ROM for English as soon as I bought it.
I found out how to unlock the MMS Options server settings so I customized it to how Chunghwa had requested and I could start receiving MMS but when I try to send it fails (and takes a few minutes to time out while which is annoying too).
My settings from Chunghwa:
Under Messages->MMS Options->Servers
Gateway 10.1.1.1
Port 8080
IP: http://mms.emome.net:8002
emome server
300K
WAP 2.0
under settings->connections->connections
I setup emome server with:
apn = emome
both checks under proxy settings and Proxy is 10.1.1.1
and with advanced on the proxy I set the port to 8080
(shows up under HTTP as 10.1.1.1:8080
After all that it receives MMS but cannot send (stuck in outbox)
Anybody else seen this?
I've even tried adding "Wap2SendLimit4=6xxxx" which I found in another thread. no luck
more info
using Arcsoft v5.0.43.116. Came with T-Mobile ROM.
new 2 the forum
sorry if I put this in the wrong place. I'm new to the forum and still looking around. I've done many searches but to no avail.
Also have problems showing chinese font with the facebook app from Microsoft?
Really would like to get my MMS send working, its a feature I did actually enjoy using (even though I also use 3G unlimited data.
Chunghwa w/ Windows Mobile 6.1 and MMS
or does anyone know a Taiwan forum I can post my question?
or does anyone have a Chunghwa phone with Windows Mobile 6.1 and MMS working? I'd like to find out what Arcsoft version and registry settings they have to get it to work.
Thanks!
