GPRS won't work on O2 or Vodafone

I have a XDA 1, initially with a O2 PayasyouGo Sim, after hours of telephone calls to O2 and hours searching the web I was catagorically told that pay as you go customers CAN'T GET GPRS. Now I read here that some people have got GPRS on O2 pay as you go !
So I switched to vodafone, who I was assured did give GPRS access to payasyougo customers. HOWEVER I'm now told Vodafone don't support the XDA and I can't get the settings from them.
To add insult to injury when I asked in the forum for the settings I got a posting calling me a jerk !
Is there a human being here who can tell me how to connect GPRS, frankly I on the verge of putting my XDA in the microwave and watching the sparks fly.

That was a brilliant Post Pete!
I'm a very green beginner with the Xda2 and am struggling to set it up, my knowledge of such things is very very basic so, if I may, can I call on you for assistance?

Sorted!

MMS settngs for Vodafone
Hmmm, I think I'm being a bit thick here, I would really appreciate it if you would go into the MMS settings in a bit more detail for Vodafone as I've tried inputting the settings you have listed but without success. I've tried getting the details from my mobile which is a vodafone live phone but I'm not sure where to put these settings in the XDA II.
Any further information would be greatly appreciated.

MMS Settings
Have got internet working, but cannot see how you enter settings for MMs. URL and IP address. Can anyone help?

Same old, same old
You must be sick of this but is there anybody out there to talk me through these settings. I've put them in and checked the numbers are GPRS enabled but I'm getting no where.
HEEELLPPPP

when you follow my guide where do you start to get problems ?

I put all the settings in and when I go to log onto the internet it says it cannot connect due to unknown error.

what about messenger or mail or icq do such programs work?
and do your device connect to gprs without errors ?

The GPRS symbol isn't displayed at the top. I haven't got mail set up yet. Hoping if I got the internet working mail would be a doddle :shock:

what about when you type in your pincode ?
and connect to your cellphone provider does it display a G in a white square ?
because if it dont then your cellphone provider havent turned gprs on in his end

Please help me setup my Internet and MMS settings

OK i have a 750v from the UK and i use it with the Vodafone contract i got it with. I unlocked it so i can use it back home here in Cyprus when im here for the holidays etc but for some reason i cant get internet or MMS to work. I had found the settings off the Cytamobile-Vodafone (my phone provider, Cytamobile is owned by Vodafone now) website but they dont work.
So i called them (a few times) and they said they cant help me and the only thing they can do is send me a document with the settings written so that i can put them myself... I tried to several times but still nothing! The weird thing is that if i keep my Vodafone UK internet settings it works but i'm not sure if im going to be paying loads extra or not with those settings. MMS dont work either way.
--------------------------------------------------------
This is the: "Basic settings for WAP over GPRS" that i was sent
Account Name: cytagprs

The voda UK settings for Internet (the ones in "My ISP") are:
Access point name: internet
username : web
Password : web
Oh also when i change the APN from "cytamobile" which i was given, to the Vodafone UK APN which is "internet" but i keep the Cyta-Voda username and password, internet still works. Im really confused.
Can some knowledgeable expert help me figure this out? Thanks and sorry for the huge post!

Try to hard-reset first, make sure everything are clean up.
And then, repeat your setting at menu
1. Setting - Connections
2. Manage Existing Connection - Click "NEW" and follow step-by-step (dont forget chooce Mode as Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G).
3. done

I already did a hard reset a few times and entered the settings and all but still nothing...

[SOLVED - last post] Vodafone Live India Settings

=======================================================================================
[FOR SOLUTION SKIP TO MY LAST POST IN THIS THREAD ]
========================================================================================
Hi.
I am an absolute newbie for a WM Device. I just got my HTC s710 two days ago.
Can anyone help me with a step-by-step setting for Vodafone Live settings ?
I use the network wizard but the settings don't work. Not been able to find anything on Google either.
I open IE n can only browse the default favourites. Cannot download anything either.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

I had a problem here in Germay to, but after my first try Vodafone sent me a text message. I don't know if this works for you, but maybe it will. Go to settings-> connetions->GPRS->Vodafone Internet and change Acces Point to event.vodafone.(what ever india has, here it's de) Then try again!

the connection setup wizard does work for vodafone in India.
try that.
It configures everything.
EDIT:
sorry i didn't notice that you have already tried that.
this is what you might be looking for

Hi!
I'm using Hutch-WAP for data-usage on my Vox, since Vodafone Live settings dont seem to work on this smartphone.
You might have got the Hutch GPRS and WAP settings in Connection Settings after running the network wizard.
Just check, Hutch-WAP settings should be:
Connects to: WAP Network
Access Point: portalnmms
Rest settings are default.
Then, in Phone Settings>Connections,Select Proxy and edit the Hutch-WAP Proxy.
Connects from: WAP network
Connects to: The Internet
Proxy(name : port): 10.10.1.100:9401
Type: HTTP
In Connections>Menu>Advanced,
Select:
Internet Connection: Hutch-WAP
Work Connection: Automatic
WAP connection: Hutch-WAP
Secure WAP: Auto.
Then in Internet Explorer, Menu>Tools>Options>Connections:
Check Automatically detect settings.
Select Network: The Internet
These settings work fine for me, you can try and let me know.

i really dont understand why Vodafone Live wont work on a WM device.... works like a charm on Symbian S60 n UIQ .... and the best part is Vodafone Live is free !!!

@phreaker18,
yes, even I don't understand why it doesnt work fine with out of the box settings, and till someone comes out with the correct answer, we have to use workarounds.
It does work great with Symbian, i checked my SIM in a NOKIA, and Vodafone Live worked without modifying any settings.
And Vodafone Live is NOT FREE, its just that it doesnt have any rental, but you are charged for data transfer.

Touch Pro ROM on a little known network

I've been plying with ROMs on my ATT Fuze for a while and feel pretty good about it. My future sister-in-law just got her husband a Touch Pro but they use ACS (Alaska Comunication Services). Now when I load a ROM on my phone and when I put my SIM in for the first time it asks to setup the carrier and ATT is the first on the list so I never have worried about this step. What if ACS is not on the very short list of carriers, what will in need to know when I select other, what is it going to ask me?
Thanks.

*bump*
I am also on a smaller carrier.... Einstein Wireless (aka Einstein PCS)... May carrier also isn;t on the list.. text messaging and calling works.. but not internet or picture messaging ... Any suggestions?
P.S. Below is the list of settings I used on my Tilt to get them to work..
Under settings, coto Connections...
Name for connection : EinsteinPCS Internet
access poin name : apn (case sensitive)
Usename : (leave blank)
password: (leave blank)
domain : (leave blank)
...under advanced
User Servier assigned IP address
click ok..
under proxy settings check: this network connects to the internet
check this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet
proxy server should be :192.168.254.251
click advanced
http: 192.168.254.251:8080
wap: 192.168.254.251:9201
secure wap: 192.168.254.251:9201
socks (blank)
For MMS... go into MMS Options... goto servers.. set these settings :
Server Name : Einstein Wireless MMS
Gateway : 192.168.254.251
Port # : 9201
Server Address : httP//www.einsteinmms.com\+1(your 10 digit # here)
Connect via : EinsteinPCS Internet

Seriously guys? Just phone the carrier and ask for the settings - they'll either tell you, or send them as a network message (or both). The auto-config just makes life easier the the majority of people, its not essential.

HTC Touch Pro - Data connection

I have a HTC Touch Pro which I got from Three in Australia. I have the energy rom running on it and it has been sim unlocked. I have put in a Lebara sim from the UK and I can not get the data connection working.. no email or google maps
I have called Lebara and they have said they don't have setting for the HTC.I know Lebara is on the Vodafone network so I tried setting the data connection to Vodafone but it still didn't work. I may not have done it properly though.
If anyone knows a way around this it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

I would search the networking forum for the settings like apn and the likes for the network you want to use and then manually add them

try to find lebera settings from different phones and use that settin in the htc should work

Go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>New Connection(At the top)
And enter these settings.
Profile Name - Lebara WAP
Bearer - GPRS/3G Modem (This will be a drop down list, make sure you select modem + GPRS/3G)
IP Address - 212.183.137.012
APN - uk.lebara.mobi
User ID - wap
Password - wap
WAP 2.0 Port - 8799
WAP 1.x Port - 9201
Authentication - Normal
Secure Settings - Off"
You may not need all these settings, but I hope this helped ( I haven't tested this but it should work)
