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)

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
Profile Name: cytagprs
Connect using
or Bearer Type
or Data bearer
or Packet: GPRS
APN
or GPRS access point
or Access Point Name: cytamobile
User id
or User name
or Login name: user
Password: pass
IP address
or Gateway
or Primary Proxy Server
or Proxy address: 212.31.96.161
IP address Port: 9201
Proxy Server Port: 8080
------------------------------------------------------
And they also sent me these settings for MMS
Profile name : Cytamms
Data Bearer : GPRS
Access Point name : cytamobile
User name : user
Password : pass
Authentication : normal
Gate Way IP address : 212.031.096.161
Homepage : http://mmsc.cyta.com.cy
Connection security : off
----------------------------------------------------
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...

Tmobile email setting (no wap?)

I upgraded to wm6 and email setting doesnt have WAP?It only has Internet or work.Anyone know how to get email and internet with WM6?

wow nobody?
nobody knows the answer?

Follow this guide to get the internet setup (t-zones), then in email try work first, if that does not work, try internet.
1. In Settings/Connections/GPRS/T-Mobile Data:
Tmobile Data Connects to: WAPNetwork
Access Point: wap.voicestream.com
2. Add a 2nd GPRS option:
T-Mobile Data 2
Connects to: Work
Access Point: wap.voicestream.com
3. Then create TWO Proxies:
Settings/Connections/Proxy
First Proxy:
Name:Tzones Proxy
Connects from: WAP Network
Connects to: The Internet
Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
Type: HTTP
Second Proxy:
Name Tzones Proxy 2 Connects from: Work
Connects to: The Internet
Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
Type: HTTP
4. In connections, click menu, then advance and set ALL connections to AUTOMATIC
5. To get the Exchange Server working:
(Exchange Server settings)
Options/Advanced
Connection: Internet
6. To get Pop mail accounts working:
(This will need to be done for each account you have)
Options/Account settings/Advanced Server Settings
Network Connection: Work
NOTE! The option to select which way to connect isn't available until you finish creating the POP account (go back in and change to: Work)
7. To get IE working:
(In Pocket Internet Explorer) Menu/Tools/Options/Connections
Check "Automatically Detect Settings"
Select Network: WAP Network
That should do it! Not all applications will work with this configuration, but Messaging (Exchange/POP3/IMAP) and Pocket Internet Explorer will work. Credits for the WM6 instructions to go http://dashapps.googlepages.com/ ! If the above instructions don't work, try completely deleting the connections and re-adding them.

wow thats funny, i had the exact same problem with my phone and tzones, and i figured out the exact same solution, cept on mine i dont need the proxy for the work connection to get the email to work and i have ie set to internet.

opera mini india anyone ?

hello everyone.
I am using the 'pay as u use' gprs on Vodafone India. The problem is that though i can use IE and Opera Browser, Opera mini does not seem to work when it works over my wifi network flawlessly. Opera Mini works on all my friends phones with the same Vodafone GPRS settings.
Not a good feat. for such an advanced smartphone :-(
has anyone solved this ?
thanks in advance

hi......
wch java manager did u install opera mini on?? ... the inbuilt one or u installed any other?? ... if not... try using JBED3DMOD java app .. it has been modded for allowing permissions better and also its full screen.... search on XDA... u shud get it
if u have any prob just post here... i'll reply

i used to have that problem with the original rom. i cant exactly remember how i fix it but it had something to do with playing around with the gprs settings and where it said connect to 'the internet' i changed it to 'work'
on wm6.1 use connection setup and everythin is fine

also make sure ur time and date settings are right. or u can try establishing a connection with ie by going to google.com and as soon as page opens go see if opera mini works. if this is the case u should just play around with ur gprs settings

thanks gys for all the help but i still can't get it to work. can i assume that u are using vodafone india ?
i have tried installing opera mini thru the default javamanager, esmetic with 3d mod n something called couldyfa or something. ..... all negative results

maybe the problem is your java.
it runs well on my phone with jbed.but i'm in China

maybe u right, but the problem was also in the original htc rom, the gonzo wm 6.1 rom and many diff versions of java

can u do one thing.... tell me step by step the gprs settings that u have put on ur phone... there is a place where it says abt connect to and abt proxy... tell me those and i will tell u if u r making any mistake.... and also be sure that u dont have other internet profile other than the one u r using.....
the prob is i have airtel so i cant explain from my side but if u tel ur current settings in detail then i will tell u to make the reqd changes....

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.
