Will my O2 Pay as you go sim card work in an XDA 11i ? - General Topics

I am hoping to buy a XDA 11i of a mate -he's on contract and got this XDA 11i as a free upgrade.
Anyway he wants to raise some cash so he selling the new xda 11i to me and going back to using his previous phone with the existing contract.
Will I be able to put my Pay As You Go sim card in the XDA 11i slot and use it normally - -as a phone, camera etc - or will it have to be unlocked or something.
I am a newbie to this kind of thing and don't want to buy it if I can't get it to work on PAYG.
Thanks for any help folks.

Hello
You will be able to use your sim but will not be able to use the GPRS part as it is not supported by o2.If any one knows a way around this then I know 2 people at least that want to know

payandgo settings for GPRS (email/MMS/Internet explorer) are available on this site
I phoned o2 and they even gave me the settings for the GPRS.
good luck.

I can only go off what I have been told in the settings I can not select payg as an option and when the settings for gprs are put in place even by the manager in the shop and by myself it still fails to connect they stated it will only allow you to get to the o2 active site.again if anyone can prove otherwise i for one will be gratefull.

Please note the following:
When entering 'o2' please use the letter 'o'.

Below are the Xda II GPRS WAP manual settings Pre-pay
It is not possible to select the 'Prepaid' option within 'My Xda' Connections in the O2 Active UI on the XdaII - 'Postpaid' is selected as default and cannot be changed.
To use the XdaII with an O2 Prepay SIM then the WAP settings will need to be changed manually - note that it will not be necessary to carry out a hard (full) reset in order to complete this.
IMPORTANT - once the WAP settings have been changed, if a hard reset is carried out at some future point, then the settings will automatically be re-configured back to Postpaid and they will need to be manually changed again..

Can't send MMS Messages (on 02 with XDAiis)

HI everyone,
I'm figuring as I'm about to turn 30, this is to do with just being too old to deal with technology anymore. Gonna need a five year to sort this out soon...
Anyway, I'm having problems sending MMS messages on my XDAiis with O2 (pay monthly).
I've been to the o2 website, which quite un-helpfully doesn't have the settings for my phone, rather the X1. But assuming they're similar, I inputted as they said.
Problem is, the messages just time out and drop into the drafts folder.
Can anyone give me any clues? I've turned off Bluetooth and wireless and nothing improves. I've tried being hooked to the net, and nothing improves.
Quite frankly, it's way past me.
Thanks in advance.
Jsedit.
The settings are automatically input along with the web/wap settings. If you can't use mms its likely your account isn't provisioned for it. You'll need to ring O2 and ask them to activate it from their side.
JD
Hi,
First off, thanks for the response.
I called 02 - and spoke to a nice, helpful girl (who it turns out, has her birthday 10 days before mine - doesn't mean much, but I do like a service that puts up with my chatty days!)
Anyway, she reminded me that you have to set up the connections option through the O2 active part of the XDAiis. So all I had to do was go into that (Active Menu, Tools, Connections, and choose UK, PostPaid and GPRS - and it should all work).
I'm currently trying to send something out... will not hit submit till I have an outcome..........
.....
......
.....
......
Anyone want a coffee??

......
Damn it.
Any other thoughts?
C.ya
Jsedit.
Wait till you get into your 30's! Remember it's not your age thats the problem, it's just technology is getting more difficult!
Anyway, i had the same problem with sending MMS but i've had the IIs install without the O2 UI. Check these settings:
Goto 'messaging' tap 'tools' at the bottom of the screen, tap MMS Settings.
On the 'Preferences' tab make sure it says MMS Network in the drop down box, tick the box's in that tab to whatever you want.
Next touch the 'servers' tab make sure it says O2UK at the top of that box, tap that O2UKand it will open to the settings, make sure they read:
Server name:
O2UK
Gateway:
193.113.200.195
Port number:
9201
Server address:
http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Sending size limitation:
100k
Touch ok, exit messaging
Next, from the today screen, touch 'start' 'settings' touch the 'connections' tab, touch 'connections' on that screen you should have 2 lots of settings:
'My work settings' and 'My isp' touch 'Manage existing connection' in the 'My isp' section. Make sure you have a setting in the 'modem' tab section saying something like 'MOBILE WEB GPRS'.
Go back to the settings 'tasks' page, touch the 'advanced' tab select 'select network' on that page make sure the bottom drop down box (programs that connect to a private network should connect using) says 'My isp'
Exit and return to the today screen and try again.
Phew! Hope that helps, time to make a brew!!
Hi
Try emailing [email protected] they sorted out my mms setting
hope it helps

Bye bye O2!

With the recent completion of my 12 month contract wih O2, I decided to try to get a better data tariff for my Himalaya.
Best O2 could manage - 50mins talk, 200sms, 11Mb gprs for £24pm on a 12 month contract.
Vodafone - 200mins talk and 1000sms (or equivalent amount of mms / gprs) That's equivalent to 50Mb of gprs usage!!! And, it only has a 1 month cancellation period.
I sure hope I'm not missing something, because the SIM is already on its way!
Has vodaphone said that the smsi are equivalent to to GPRS? That's a really good package, 50mb of gprs. Is it all for £24 as well? ex vat?
V
The Vodafone rep specifically told me that 20sms = 1Megabyte data, and I was quite specific about the fact I wanted a good data tariff on my XDA2 for browsing, email, etc... and as the call was recorded.. it *should* work out OK.
This is great! Means I can use traffic update on Tomtom as much as I want. Might even buy a Backpack so I can email images from my Canon 300d. 8)
The guy was really very persistant though, I have to say. I'm sure these call centre guys must get some SAS training in interogation. Had its plus side though, he made a point of sifting through the available phone numbers until I got one I liked :lol:
Not sure about inc/exc VAT, but in my limted experience of mobile companies to date, quoted prices are inclusive.
I can't understand how an SMS would be 50KB. I was under the impression each SMS would be around 256 bytes - hence the 160 character limit.
I know, the sums were flying through my head faster than treacle up a shovel when I was on the phone to vodafone
But at the end of the day, 50Mb is 50Mb, and £25 is £25. So, as long as I can genuinely use 50Mb of gprs in any given month for £25 (plus, use 250 minutes of talk-time), then wayhey! Let's see if i can make Vodafone introduce a 'fair usage' policy! :evil:
Yeah O2 suck. I unlocked my Orange M2000 (Blue Angel) and they won't give me any GPRS Pay and Go settings that will work, I have tried everything. Orange are now offering the same tariff I am on with o2 with 300 free texts, 1mb free GPRS when you top up £10 a month. They also offer a free Sim Card if you apply before Wednesday and free calls to Orange customers for 5 years. Is anybody on this tariff with Orange? Would you recommend me trying it? Do you think I will be able to access GPRS even though I am on Pay as you go?
Many Thanks.

@ Waddington..Have you tried all this?
I take it you've been through all this??(below) I just got 2 free sims from O2, 100minutes free to any mobile, 1MB GPRS (on pay n go), 100 free texts or mix n match what you want.

Hi, Yeah I have tried all of that. A number of times. I managed to get my PDA to say connecting but then it says disconnected. It’s a shame really because I really like O2 but not being able to access GPRS on this mobile especially because it’s a PDA is not good. I will defiantly keep my O2 Sim card just in case they give support for GPRS on the blue angel sometime. I’ll keep my fingers crossed!
There may still be hope..
@Waddington..There may still be hope. Register with www.simalert.com They email you the second they get any FREE SIMS deals, from VODA, ORANGE, O2, T-MOBILE etc. I just got 2x O2 Pay n Go Sims for free, 10pound topups , 100 free texts , 100free minutes to any mobile, 1MB free GPRS downloads, plus your 10pounds of calls. O2 should REALY treat there Pay n Go customers equaly as Contract customers :roll:
The O2 XDA 2's is a high end piece of kit, and a good sale for O2.
It's only fair that O2 should treat us with more respect and service.
Seeing how these new Pay n Go sims support GPRS, and O2 should be helping you out with your Sim. Is it an XDA issue or a Sim issue?
If its a SIM issue then they should send you a new one with your exiting number, it's no big deal to them, it's just a few keystrokes to them. And you pay them at least 10pounds every month plus Bolt-Ons.
A simcard must cost O2, 0.002p to mass produce. good luck! :wink:

Cheers but..
Thanks Daz but I have been on the I-Mate site and could not register as I have an O2 XDA serial number etc.. Also I tried everyhting Waddington did and I can't connect either I'm sending O2 this thread, may they hang there heads in shame! Orange do a good new sim dont they? I've orderd one and it was FREE. To O2 : You know what you can do with O2. :wink:
Now on Vodafone
Update... received vodafone sim (day later than expected, but hey), but it wouldn't register on the network.
3 calls later to customer services (twice cut off) and it transpired that the phone number didn't match the sim. Fixed, but now with a phone number consisting of random digits (not the 'magic' number I had been promised).
Few days later, I receive sms messages for someone else. Another call to customer services reveals that someone at vodafone has inadvertently entered my sim number into this other person's account. So, had to collect a new sim from the local vodafone shop and call customer services to activate it. However, did get a months free line rental and free number change (now have a decent number).
Just as well I'm in a good mood this week!
Vodaphone, O2, Jokers!
OMG! they are all as bad as each other, employing staff fresh out of Burger King!!! No wonder they make so many mistakes.. I just got a FREE Voda Sim , do I dare try topping it up? I think not after reading that last post.
I have some of them new O2 GPRS enabled (or so called GPRS enabled) sims. I think I will email O2 again and see what kind of automated reply I get. with all these cards looks like I have a pack of JOKERS!! OK gang it's time to FLAME ON! i'm gonna email the crap out of O2 until I get some service! because of the NON SERVICE OF GPRS originaly offered to me and Waddington etc etc :: [email protected] - has anyone got the cutomercare email address for VODAPHONE? ORANGE? this would be helpful as I can't afford to phone them.
21-11-05 COMPLAINT TO O2 MANAGEMENT.
TO: [email protected] ("DIRECTOR" OF O2 CUSTOMER SERVICE)
Dear Sir/Madam, I am absolutly disgusted that your company can't figure out a way to make the O2-XDA-lls WAP work properly, so many other people with the same problem now get this pre-made message saying that "The O2 XDA 2s can't be WAP enabled to Pay as You Go sim", and thats after you put us through all the previouse setup instructions that takes ages knowing that it wont work anyay!. All that so you can offer us MMS messages which no one uses!. And the tarrif includes WAP access and or 1MB of WEB SURFING on my Newer Sims, and these wont work either! This is a flagrant breach of your terms and conditions. And trying to make it alright by offering us MMS messgaes? well I dont want MMS messages , AND THEY DONT WORK ANYWAY even if I did want them! and I DONT.
O2 should hang there heads in shame! at the total disrespect of Pay n Go Customers! treated like third class citizens after buying High End Flagship O2 XDA PDA phone..
I NEED WAP or GPRS ACCESS!. I suggest that your Management look at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=183547#183547

flame O2 DIRECTOR CUSTOMER SERVICE: [email protected]
This has been a terrible experience O2!
Dear Viveck (director O2 customer service), I awoke to find my "G" symbol stating that GPRS is now setup? so I tryed to connect and it said It was connected, great I thought. So I tried connect to a WAPSITE , nothing, I tryed to connect to several other WAP WEBSITES, nothing, AND I'm getting charged for it! I recieved a message form O2 to say TopUp or loose your allowance, so I topped up just earlier, and got nothing in return! my number is 07*********, I have just recieved another text message, its saying My TopUp is taking longer than expected??? and we are sorry for the inconvenience??? what is going on?? I have still not recieved my topup.
This is completely unacceptable, I would like some kind of compensation for the complete incompetance and run around i've had with O2's lack of service.
The reply from my last complaint from O2:
Currently you are subscribed to the free allowances of 300 text messages and 300 WAP minutes and you will be "charged" to access WAP via GPRS.
Please connect to WAP using the GSM network.
The only free WAP calls we offer are those made via the dial-up numbers of 915000 or +447712927927, otherwise your WAP connection will be chargeable as a cross network call.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can someone tell me how to connect using GSM?? As O2 have failed to tell me how. I seem to recognise the above +447712927927 I'm sure thats the one thats always been in my sim settings. any help would be appreciated. I have had no reply from Viveck Dev. good grief
This might work, but I'm not gaurunteeing anything..
From O2 : Re: No free WAP and or GPRS.
A) Your mobile number 07********* has a free allowance bundle of 300 text messages and 300 GSM WAP minutes. This is why you are charged for accessing GPRS WAP.
I request that you immediately call 2425 free or text 'ONMSG' to 21300 to change your free 300 GSM WAP minutes to 1 Mb GPRS WAP.
Your Anniversary date is the **nd of every month.
B) I cannot find any top-up attempt for your mobile number 07******** in the last 30 days. This is why your free allowance bundle has not been reactivated.
"ACTUALY I DID TOPUP AT 10.A.M. I RECIEVED MY TOPUP AT ABOUT 1PM"
Please let us know which top-up method was used. E-TOPUP WAS USED
I ASKED FOR SOME COMPENSATION:
C) You are eligible for a free Joining Treat AND an O2 Treat.
Please click the links given below for more details:

O2s unbelievable incompetance.
MR.****** ***** 07********* SCOLIOSIS SUFFERER WITH NO LANDLINE PHONE. THIS IS MY LIFE LINE.
Dear Sir / Madam, I topped up at approximatly 9.30 AM on the 22nd of November after getting a reminder text from O2 that very morning, PLEASE enable my text and WAP as I am being charged again I have done everything you said to the letter and still I'm getting charged, There was a delay from O2 adding my credit due to a problem with O2 not me. I recieved 3 text messages saying "we are sorry for the inCONvenience etc..."
YOU SAY:
>B) I cannot find any top-up attempt for your mobile number 07*********
>in the last 30 days. This is why your free allowance bundle has not been
>reactivated.
THIS IS BECAUSE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH O2, NOT ME. I HAVE A RECEIPT TO PROOVE THAT I TOPPED UP ON THE MORNING OF THE 22nd NOV, IF YOU WANT A COPY PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I have also reluctantly made the GPRS changes from GSM WAP to GPRS at 1MB
that you have told me to do, I will wait another day and try it. I dont expect it to work, even though I've spent ages along with many other people trying to make our XDA phones to work at www.xda-developers.com ,
QUESTION: Can you tell me the correct "connection settings" for FREE 1-MB GPRS from an O2-XDA-2s-PDA-PHONE? as the last ones didn't work.
RE: XDA-DEVELOPERS Sorry for multiple posts BUT this may help some of you complain and get some kind of compensation.
o2 and net connection
OK team reading the thread I m not too sure what service is availiable through o2 .
I have an Alpine ( XDA 11i) and use a number of sims . I only use the P A U G sim for net access and limit my self to £10.00 per month , which at their rates of £ 2.35Mb is almost nothing , but it works .
In the past I have also been able to connect to the net on the 927 no but not at GPRS speed ( cellular line , not cellular line GPRS), at a real catapillar speed . Now this wont work at all and I get a no modem at this No dialoge box !!! . however , if you dial the No on a normal phone and listen there clearly is digital traffic ( ie a modem ) .
Any thoughts
Astro1
I still need correct settings , I CAN get GPRS to connect but NOTHING surfs up at all WAP and WWW. sites. I choose 50 minutes to any mobile, then they sent me a text saying I have the free minutes everymonth till 23 02 06 - I guess its better than nothing (FOR NOW!), BUT my problems havn't been resolved like you I still can't surf up anything, I wonder am I only supposed to Surf WAP sites via GPRS, all the sites I tried said The Page Is Unavialable,yeh right so Google Mobile is unavailable?? I think not. Plus I own a few domains and it can't find them either, I will see what I can find on latest settings emails..
THIS IS UNREAL CHECK THIS OUT: (BIG TYPE IS ME, IM NOT SHOUTING
Please connect to WAP using the GSM network. OK LOOKS FINE SO FAR..
The only free WAP calls we offer are those made via the dial-up numbers of 915000 or +447712927927, otherwise your WAP connection will be chargeable as a cross network call.
THEN THEY SAY THIS DIRECTLY BELOW!! :
We do not have the Pay and Go GSM WAP settings for your O2 Xda IIs.
SO WHAT WAS ALL THAT LAST INFO ABOUT??? ABSOLUTE JOKERS!
THEN SAYS THIS DIRECTLY AFTER??
Please find below the generic GSM settings for your phone. You may enter these settings to see " if " the services work.

I HAVE A DATASUPPORT EMAIL ITS: [email protected]
UPDATE 28-11-2005 :: I have emailed the above details to them and a link to this thread, I hope O2 techies can resolve this problem soon.
God help us all.
Here we go again..
My Reply from, O2 DATA SUPPORT TEAM.. O2 XDA IIs / 2s
From looking at the settings you have below, they would seem generic
settings and not totally applicable to the XDA, I have placed both GPRS
WAP and GSM WAP over Pay and Go below which will get you connected to
the WAP services.
What I would mention is that over WAP we offer this is a WAP service,
but on the XDA you can add an extra port number so in theory you can use
web over wap, for this I have placed extra details below. (note this
isn't supported by us but we have found it to work).
The reason you won't have been able to go to a wap site is that the
settings you have below don't advise you where to enter the proxy
server, which is the part that directs you on to the internet.
To make the XDA choose a particular connection over another, you will
need to go into start, connections, connections, under My Work Network
tap manage existing connections. Within hear, if you have GPRS WAP and
GSM WAP, you can put a dot next to the connection you wish to use, and
this will prioritise itself over the other.
If you have any further queries regarding the devices, do not hesitate
to write again.

Paul

I'm not going to try this until O2 have paid me enough CASH in compensation as My FREE MINUTES, TEXT & CWAP awarded to me as Compensation for the last cockups they made have all been discontinued as from last night before I could even use them!! :evil: , so that I can go on Holiday and RECOVER!! and when I return, then, maybe then i'll try this, when I have calmed DOWN!!
I have been going to Anxiety Management for the last year due to a traumatic experience, O2 have put me back to square one!
and thats no joke.
I am now going to www.holymoly.co.uk/cc and posting to C#NTSCORNER!! regarding O2.. because they are without doubt the biggest bunch of C#NTS! I HAVE EVER HAD TO DEAL WITH!! - British Telecom and BT are already in there I wonder why?
:roll:

mini S setup nightmare...

Hi everyone
I just recently bought an o2 XDA mini S and I just can not seem to get it to connect to the internet or check my pop3 email.
Keeps coming back with the following error message:
Cannot Connect
Dialed: mobile.o2.co.uk
No Modem at above number. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings.
I have triple checked all the settings which were emailed to me by o2 - WAP, GPRS and MMS settings and all seem to have been entered correctly but dont work.
If anyone can help me Id be very greatful...Ive tried everything I can think of but am not getting anywhere with this
Thank you in advance
This is the gprs settings I use and it works
O2 GPRS settings (Email/Web):
Homepage: http://pda.o2.co.uk/
APN address: mobile.o2.co.uk
Username: mobileweb
Password: password
Email servers (POP): mail.o2.co.uk
Email servers (SMTP): smtp.o2.co.uk
Note: The "Mobile Web" service must be enabled for these settings to work.
* We've also been told of an alternative username of 'faster', with a password of 'password'
under connections\settings\my isp\manage existing connections make sure when it says select a modem - have cellular line (gprs) selected. And make sure O2 have mobileweb enabled at their end for your account. Their no is 202.
Next time better to post in wizard forum - you will get more responses.
I'll keep an eye on this post in case U need more help.
Hi Cath
Just try removing the SIM card wiping on something soft and all should work (but as above you must be on the correct tariff)

Palm Treo 750 internet settings for O2 (UK network)

I can not beg, borrow or steal O2 to get settings for my Palm Treo 750 (windows mobile 5) to get on the internet! It is unlocked. I have tried various wap and password settings that I have found from them and online.
I have called O2 tech support which is really unimpressive because it seems they simply will not let you go up the ladder of support to get to someone that can answer the problem. I have been on palm.com website using online live support and palm says O2 must give the settings. O2 curiously tells me Palm must give me the settings. Anyone have any experience with this and know the settings? Know where to look? Me like you long time if you can help out.
thanks
I can give you my setting and it is not O2
You can ask O2 for the right setting.
and here it is:
1. Start, Settings, Connections, and then tap the Connections Icon
2. Under "My Work Network" tap Add a New Modem Connection
3. Name it Picture Messaging and under Select a modem select (GPRS,3G)
4. Under Access Point Name type: uwap.orange.co.il
5. Username, Password, and Domain is left blank and then click Finish
6. Now, go into Proxy Settings and check "This network connects to the Internet" and check "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
7. Under the Proxy Server box type: 192.118.11.55
8. Tap the advanced button and tap on the HTTP line. Make sure the HTTP settings shows 192.118.11.55:8080. If not, change it.
9. Click the OK button a few times to get out of the settings completely.
10.Now go to Start, Messaging, Menu, then Options, Advance, then Click Manual, and then the Edit button
11. Message center number +97254120032
12. Email center number is 500
13. MMS gateway address is 192.118.11.55:8080
14. MMS URL is http://192.168.220.15/servlets/mms
15. Finally under Network Profile select: My Work Network and then click ok.

Dear All,
I have followed the instructions that you have given to me but still I couldn't access and/or browse the internet as well as receiving MMS format files. I tried to access and view some threads and I happened to see an email thread that gives an instruction on how to Re-flash/Unbrand a Palm Treo 750... I would like to ask your expertise Sirs if this is the next possible way or solution to solve the problem with my Treo 750? I hope someone can help me on this...thank you and more power to all.
Abrille
To access internet via Internet Explorer, you need the correct GPRS/WAP settings to tell it to use the right APN.
Try the settings listed here:

To set up a new GPRS connection profile use this:
