Is this going to be the same for all network's payg options?
please help ... anyone who is on a payg contract wth a sim free raphael or with any other suggestions.

thats a lot of rubbish!
go to settings >connections> ad new connection
use payandgo.o2.co.uk (or payasyougo.o2.co.uk dont remember) as acces point, payandgo as user password as paswword . thats it. if it doesnt connect use 193.113.200.195:8080 as proxy
i have to say that i've got terrible connection with o2 3g! keeps catting connection to the net (not actual connection) you have to disconnect anc connect again. i dont know if it is network or phone

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
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.

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
just wrote bloody long post and pc crashed in internet cafe-
so gonna write a short one now.
i am running darkforce wm6-very stable does what i want it to do in the uk
howvever in stockholm at present and cannot browse internet or send/recieve email for what will amount to the same the problem.
the handset is obvioulsy unlocked and with t-mobile,but when abroad last year with different wm5 roms -no problems everything worked fine,have spoken to t-mobile who are about as much use as a choclate tea pot
1) when trying to connect to internet-it does nothing-if i force the connection and get it use the csd t-mobile -i get 'failed to dial' message
2) when trying to retrive pop3 email(no exchange server involved) get new message about extra charge as roaming and then it try to connect for a spilt second before displaying error syncronising
i can roam all networks pick everything up?
please help people
hello,
I've no probleme with data connection when roaming my provider is SFR (france) and roaming provider is proximus (belgium).
Have you trying with another roaming provider ?
as many as i can try telia,vodafone se ,iq etc etc
no joy-beginning toi think it is to do with t-mobile
also without stating the obvious, as and when i can find a free wifi-everything works
are you having prob only with your data connection?? back in uk (?) were you using 3g or gprs and lastly in setting/phone/ is the band set to wcdma (3g) or gprs
in uk had set data to auto all have tried every over type- but still does not explain why it worked seamless before -it either is something within the wm6 rom(i doubt) or t-mobile(proable)
but as i m traveling as soon as i get back i would like to get to the bottom of it.
It may not be your Universal - it may be your provider
Did you inform T-Mobile that you were going overseas? They need to activate international roaming on your account...
I've seen this problem before (working in a phone shop and all...), a customer from country xxxxx can't make\receive calls - because international roaming is not active on their account
Roaming worked on WM5, now not on WM6
Hi
I had similar problems. While Roaming previously (From SA (MTN), roaming in Mauritius (on Cellplus and Emtel) under WM5, I had no problems with SMS (text) or data calls.
Recently upgraded to WM6 (Laurentius' V7 VideoCall) and when landing in Mauritius last week, I could not send SMS(text) or connect data. It picked up the network. I did not test normal voice calls, since I usually dont make any while roaming. I simply used my sim card in a different handset for the week, but it was very frustrating, since Ive come to rely heavily on data access while travelling overseas (for email, skype, etc)

Could also be Radio Ver
Hi all, Could you all edit your posts and enter your Radio SStack Ver ?
And if you can remember what Ver you were on when it used to work on WM5.
As stated in the post, the 1.18 Stack had updates for roaming, I haven't had a chance to test it myself, could anyone provide feedback on roaming with 1.18.
Cheers,
Beast
dark force(excellent) and radio 1.15 will try upgrade as leave country in a few weeks
I roam between China, Hong Kong and Taiwan a lot. It appears data works better with some local service providers only. So what I do is when travelling to a new place, know which local providers data network 'roams' better with my China Mobile, by manually selecting, and trying, one by one, on the phone control panel, network selection part. Once I found one that worked, then I manually fix to that one.
Now everytime I travel to a different region, I just do, phone control panel->network->manual-> choose the known good one.
I hope this works in your situation and network providers.

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!!
ROM 1.90.162.5 Ger

Radio 1.02.25.19
Protocol 52.33.25.174
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.
Hi,
I'm Using the HTC Touch Pro on the Dutch "Telfort" network, but because this is actually the KPN network the Touch pro, is always using roaming options.
When using activesync to connect to exchange server for direct push (3G), the phone will not stay connected. Selecting "Use above settings when roaming" On the activesync schedule page doesn't seem to work.
I tried some registry options, to never ask roaming questions but I think those are for regular mail accounts.
is there a way to:
*) Trick the phone into thinking it isn't roaming
or
*) have the phone not disconnect or use EXACT settings when roaming.
When I switch simcard with a dutch T-mobile or Vodafone, Activesync will work just fine.
If your sim-card is an old Telfort card, requesting a new sim-card may solve your problem.
I could try
I could try and see if that will solve my problem.
But I really doubt it. I just signed for this contract 2 months ago. (only active for a couple of days now)
If there are any dutch Telfort users here with a raphael (touch pro) and can confirm that their phone isn't thinking it's roaming I would like to hear that. maybe there is still some hope left
