Hi,
Could someone tell me if I could simply put a T-Mobile sim with web and walk tarrif into the trinity or any other non T-Mobile 3g phone and still get free internet access and msn messenger. Or do I specifically have to use their phones with their own version of browsers and messenger.
Need to know this before deciding which network and phone to go for.
Thanks
I have the same question
I have a SPV-M3100, but I don't know how to get connection settings for
T-Mobile Web n Walk service.
I have searched the forum, but no clear result.
Thank you first if anyone can have an idea.
here in the Netherlands you could do that. You should be able to get a sim-only with w&w and put that sim in any unlocked phone. This is not a logical choice here in the Netherlands since we get great deals when combined with a T-mobile branded phone. T-mobile the Netherlands is promoting some nokia phones as well...(N73)
Shouldn't be a problem - I've used my WnW SIM in several WM 3G and non 3G phones. Just set the apn / usrname / password to
GPRS APN address: general.t-mobile.uk
Username : user
Password: wap
and left everything else at default.

Trying to setup a brand new xda2, it will not allow me to select prepay gprs, it will only allow post paid, any help appreciated.
I don't think O2 (it is O2 you're talking about right?) has that option for the UK customers. It would appear that their Mobile Internet GPRS network doesn't seem to support PAYG customers. If you are planning to use it PAYG, I think the only thing you can get is GPRS WAP but not 'true' internet. But even then, I have quite a lot of difficulty 'surfing' WAP pages via PIE; can do it better with EZWAP.
For some reason, I did note that I could select Ireland and then the prepay option will be 'enabled' on that particular screen.
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 : )

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
regards

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?)

Hi,
I've just moved my XDA 2 away from an o2 contract to Pay As You Go with Tesco.
I can't get my GPRS to work and after contacting Tesco several time, they are now saying that you cannot use GPRS on an XDA 2 on a provider OTHER THAN o2, because of some pre-set settings that can't be changed. I can view pda.o2.co.uk when connected to GPRS, but that's it.
Is this true? Is there a workaround? Does anyone have GPRS working on Tesco or any non o2 provider (if they were originally on o2)?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Andi
i can't speak directly for Tesco's pay as you go service, but I have had no problem accessing GPRS on my XDAII, which was bought under a 1 year contract in UK, after moving to Malaysia (on a local M'sian carrier).
what i do have trouble is, however, is setting the gprs up for mms services. Apparently on my cousin's xdaIIs bought here, mms services require connection to a separate gprs account, which can be specified on his mms settings but not on mine. and we can't seem to find anything different in the changeable settings! o well. i have no one to mms anyway...
somynex if you want help setting up your mms I can gladly assist. Its accually really easy. You have to set up your proxy on my work network. Just im me if you want some help.
Mike
No-one have any ideas? I think I'll likely move to o2 pay as you go.
Thanks
I just buyed Touch Pro / Raphael from vodafone with or without branding, I am not sure, because I paid full price without provision and vodafone hotline told me that they do not have something blocked.
At the moment I need to use it with my t-mobile sim card until I could move with my number to vodafone.
I can do phone calls and also can receive emails from a pop3 account, after I received a sms from t-mobile with "correct" internet settings,
but I am not able to start eighter internet explorer or opera to get internet access. When I download my emails, it seems to be connected trough t-mobile roaming partner etisalat. Crazy.
When I use a prepaid vodafone sim card, opera will run, of course I changed back to vodafone settings.
My problem is that I need support, because I am on a business trip in dubai and need to have internet access with my phone, otherwise I need to ask someone in the lobby to use his connection.
Do I need something like supercid or what is the reason for that??
Many thanks for your support in advance!!

Is nobody able to answer this question, or is it too stupid?
I really need support, because it is very important for me to have internet access.
PLEASE HELP!!
dont really understand your problem...
but, you either have your device set to raoming or you are out side of tmobile coverage and it austomatically puts you onto the roaming carrier. this roaming carrier may be blocking data...
I also do not understand that issue. Roaming is working, also with data, because I tried to get access with a umts card from someone else.
Could this be a question branding and what is to do to recover it? Sometime ago you could do this yourselve (for my old wizard), but meanwhile it looks only like earning money, right?
Tomorrow I will leave and then I try at home again.
Hello, Im hoping someone could help me.
I live in a rual area in Arizona. We only have one carrier and its Cellular One. From my understanding its totaly
different than the Cellular One on the East Coast.
All the phones they sell are unbranded. Wether its a cheal flip Nokia or the GS3, their unbranded and most are the
International versions.
I like to use unlocked phone's from either tmobile or att. However I always have a problem with data.
Cell One offers 2 different Internet packages, here are the apn's for their data.
Basic Internet-
apn= wap.c1csky.net
proxy= 209.4.229.94
port= 9401
Smart Phone Internet-
apn= isp.cellularoneaz.net
no proxy or port.
MMS-
apn= wap.c1csky.net
mmsc= mmsc.c1neaz.csky.us:6672
proxy= 209.4.229.94
port= 9401
Here is where my problem is. Lets say I enter the basic Internet setting and the MMS settings in the phone. My internet
will work and so will pic msg's. However I cant download anything or i cant login to Facebook. Every site I try works except
Facebook.
Now if I change the apn's to Smart Phone Internet then all data works downloads, facebook etc. But picture msg will not work.
It only happens with unlocked att or tmobile phones. If I use one of their phones its not a problem.
Sorry the post is long... hopefully someone can help me figure it out.

AW: [Q] APN and Data Help
Asked the Hotline to send you a message with the right apn settings? They send a text message that sets all the required inputs. Or add one apn with the mobile Internet details and another one with the mms settings.
