XDA II MMS and Internet together - General Topics

Is there a way to get the XDA II to use Orange GPRS for internet, and Orange MMS for picture messaging. They are both configured and when left on auto pick it always choosed MMS. So the internet dont work. IUf i fix it to GPRS the internet works but MMS doesnt.
I use My Work Network to connect the internet and private networks, because i also have WiFi for Active sync and internet whilst at work and home.
If i set use MMS for private networks, the MMS and internet work, but active sync doesnt. I am going mad, and Ornage wont help.

Newby question - MMS and GPRS

Hello all,
I was wondering, in order to receive an MMS message, do I have to turn on GPRS communication, or is it automatically switched on upon receiving an MMS message?
It has to be configured on your device, GPRS and MMS that is, and it also has to be acivated by your network. I was trying to get my GPRS working and couldn't work out why it wasn't until I finally spoke to someone at O2 who had a vague idea of what they were doing and said new customers had to request activation of GPRS!
i get mms wihtout having turned grps on at the time
but when i open the msg then it connect to the network using grps
and get the mms pic, movie, sound or what ever
Ah, that clarifies!
Thanks for your replies!
With regards,
Thumper
a bit more clarification ... the MMS platform sends a special SMS to the phone (xda or other) ... if the phone is equiped for MMS the proper application (ex: MMS Composer or EZWAP 2.5) will start and it will connect through GPRS ... this requires also to have the device and the dial registered on the MMS platform .... otherwise a normal SMS will be displayed containing a URL to download the MMS from any web browser.
My GPRS connection works fine, I can browse the Internet with IE. But when I try to send a photo message (MMS), I get "Cannot connet". Does anyone know why?
if you put in the right
Server name
Gateway
and
server address
in mms composer
and you have made them turn on mms in their end (the cellphone company)
and some people need to make a new grps connections with another access point (often mms)
then i dont know
They sent me a text message that automatically entered the details in MMS composer for me (server name, server address and gateway). I found the new details there when I checked. Because I called them to activate the service (and so they sent me the text message), I'm assuming it's active from their end. I'm not aware of a different GPRS connection I should be using. There are already three connections set up: WAP CSD, WAP GPRS and Internet GPRS. Takker ellers for tilbagemelding.

Receiving MMS whilst using Exchange Activesyn

Does anyone else suffer from the following problem..? When sync'd via Exchange Activesync the phone keeps the gprs connection open 24/7. This is fine and exactly what you would expect. The problem is that when I get sent an MMS I cannot download it because on Orange in the UK you need to be connected using the OrangeMMS APN rather than Orange Internet to get MMS. The phone just attempts to download the MMS via Orange Internet as that is already connected.
Is there anyway I can get it to change when required? At the moment I have to manually disconnect Orange Internet then connect Orange MMS, download the MMS then reconnect to Orange Internet!

iphone dataplan with htc

hello,
I currently have 2 cellphone: Iphone (old one) with Edge dataplan from att.
and HTC Polaris.
I was using HTC Polaris with the SIM from Iphone and e/thing was working just fine untill today, when I was unable to use the Internet connection. My skype still connects but my emails and internet explorer and msn don't connect to the network.
Also, earlier I was able to connect to 3G with HTC.
So, I wanted to know what is going on? Is it because that my HTC is trying to connect to 3G network and thats why my access is blocked or is there anyways to fix it?
Thanks.
No.
I had a motorola RAZR (not even edge!, its just regular gprs) with at&t, got the unlimited media net data for 15$ a month, popped the sim out, put it in a polaris and now i get unlimited 3G for 15$ a month.
It's gotta be something with your connection settings and / or your radio rom possibly? Run the connection setup again and try that.
Everything works for me too on ATT, and I'm on some other data plan not the PDA Data plan. The one thing that doesn't work for me is MMS. I think it might have something to do with Proxy settings, although not sure. It's kinda annoying actually.
MMS works for me, but it's hella expensive.
I have a text plan that includes 200 text messages and pay per use MMS.
It's like 75 cents per MMS i believe.
i have unlimited everything. unlimited data, text, mms. the thing is i can't even receive mms, let alone send.
do you have any proxy settings? my settings show now proxy. with a proxy i can only update weather but i can't do anything else. with no proxy i can actually use opera and other wireless data functions.
i wonder if this has something to do with the fact that i did have an iphone data plan before switching to another one. (no i don't have an iphone, long story though) maybe in att system they still think i have an iphone (since the iphone doesn't send or receive mms and might not use the proxy)?
Are you guys w/o MMS configured properly?
Server name: AT&T MMS
Gateway: wireless.cingular.com
Port number: 80
Server address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect via: MEdia net

Yeah I have all those settings. I am not however using any proxy settings, don't know if that matters. I get a series of errors when I try to upload or download an MMS. When it uploads it gets to 99% then it doesn't send it. when can't remember what happens it tries to receive, something about forbidden. I've seen several people complain about it on the forum but none of those fixes work.
MMS used to work at some point, so I don't know what happened. It might have something to do when my account was on an iPhone data plan for a few hours. Maybe that messes with the proxy settings / MMS settings for that account??

GPRS versus Wlan: some appl do not work

I have the following situation:
I received a Raphael for work purposes with push mail activated and i'm able to receive through gprs my work mails, go on internet using opera
at home I connect through Wlan to my router and I'm able to download emails from gmail and update my weather tab on flow3D
However I'm not able to:
- update the weather tab in flow3D using GPRS, only through Wlan
- update my gmail and hotmail through GPRS
- go on internet with opera using WLan
Purpose: I would like to link/update data using gprs or wlan for all applications except of course my work mail (this is using a proxy) depending were I am because wlan is cheaper and faster...
Any help?
Thanks a lot
any help please?
You havent given any info on your network, but try going into your data connection settings and turning off the proxy (not your work e-mail proxy, the 3g one) it causes a load of connection problems with some carriers.

[Q] MMS only via mobile network connection??

Hy...
Changed from sense to cm7 (hyper sensation)
i always disable mobile internet network, gprs, bluetooth etc. only connection for phonecalls and sms/mms was enabled.
if i need mobile internet, i enable manual.
the problem is since i changed to cm7 i need to enable mobile internet connection to send mms and becoming new ones.
is there a trick to say the sms/mms apk (now i try handcent sms) use temporary internet connection to send or download a mms???
"htc sence 3.5" does it before. i never had to enable the internet connection...thanx...
never mind... the set up is up to date. the swisscom mms APN set up is exactly how it should be. there is just no blue point like for the other gprs APN.
???
