Hi,
Newbie question. When I tap Active -> My XDA -> Connections. The country always shows Germany (I live in UK). When I try to set it to UK, the system reboots but the setting is still Germany :?:
It's the same on my XDAII, both before and after the upgrade. Nothing to worry about.

same on mine too. i came across the problem whilst trying to figure out why i couldnt send/receive MMS. i followed the help section on the O2 site to finally figure out that MMS hadnt been enabled on my account. the instructions told me to change the settings to UK etc but i found it kept defaulting back to Germany. they eventually sent me the manual settings to ensure that it was correct for when they enabled my account.

Hi, I'm a relatively experienced xda2 user. I have vodafone internet working fine but not MMS.
I have (I Think) the correct settings for WAP and MMS and when I send, it connects to the vodafone wap connection and the icon appears in the notification area for sending the mms but it never goes.Also, a reveived mms will not be downloaded to the xda2, just an sms appears to tell me to log on to the vodafone website to see it.
Also, I cannot browse wap wites in IE or special wap browsers.
Vodafone customer care tell me it's all set up their end for my old phone (RAZR V3) and that they have no settings for xda and therefore it may never work. They say every specific phone needs specific settings on their end for mms to work.
Has ANYONE got MMS working in Ireland for Vodafone on XDA2. If so, what are your exact settings and what phone does Vodafone think you are using? (maybe some settings on their end work for XDA).
THANKS!!!
Never mind
Got it working.
hello ,
i see your with vodafone,have been running with them about 6 months with no probs but crashed my xda11 last week and cant remember the gprs setting.can you please let me have a copy of your settings.
cheers

Hey, i got my XDA2 from eBay so i have no idea which country it was origianly purchased from which is causeing my a problem in which upgrade i should use for my phone...
If i goto O2 Active > My XDA > Connections i get a screen that says 'Select Country' and 3 options to choose from. Germany, Ireland, and UK. Germany is selected and when i try to click UK and click the finish button is says "Setting up the connection... Please Wait" and then resets after a few seconds. When i go back to that page Germany is reselected again so am i to think that this phone was purchased in Germany and its locked to "German" settings even though everything is in English?? :?
Also below it is a 'Select Service' with 4 options. PrePaid/PostPaid and GSM/GPRS. At the moment PostPaid is selected and it wont let me to change to PrePaid. I can change between GSM/GPRS, and GPRS is currently selected...
I'm not sure which options i really need in order to get MMS/Internet/E-Mail working again because i dont think they are working as they are suposed to anyway. Sites never really loaded up even though you can find pictures on the internet with them sites working
Any help would be appreciated cheers,

Hi
Read wiki...
You'll learn there how to use xda-developers tools to get detailed information about your device.
Then determine which update is best for you (also in wiki)
Hi - I've seen some posts that kind of address this topic but nothing yet that can solve the problem I'm experiencing (I think!).
I've set my O2 Exec up with what I'm confident are the Vodafone UK WAP APN and MMS server settings. However, when I send a message it tries for the standard 3 attempts and then gives up, saying the message couldn't be sent and that it would remain in my outbox. However, all 3 of the messages are actually successfully delivered! I am unable to download any 'received' MMS sent to me, although I do receive the notifications.
Has anybody else experienced this and, if so, I'd appreciate any advice in solving it.
The WAP APN I'm using is wap.vodafone.co.uk without the proxy setting enabled (as this is specified in the MMS settings). The MMS server is http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms, gateway is 212.183.137.12 with a port number of 8799. Size is limited to 100K, using WAP 2.0.
Thanks for any assistance.

I've got exactly the same problem. I rang vodafone and told them I had a V1640 and ask them to send me the settings, but she couldn't do it for some reason. She told me to go down to the vodafone shop and ask them to program the settings in manually. I haven't done this because I reckon that I will know more than them about the phone.
My O2 ROM has the settings for 02's connections, therefore, the only thing I can think of doing now is to somehow obtain a copy of the V1640 ROM and install it and hope the settings will be inherant with the installation.
Had a quick look aroung the net without any success.

I'm going from memory a little, but before i upgraded to my Orange SPV M5000, I upgraded my O2 XDAII from PPC2003 (not SE) to a WM2005 ROM, working on a Vodafone PAYT SIM.
I used the attached file to configure all the necessary Vodafone settings (btw, this is UK PAYT)... just copy to your device and run the CAB. I don't recall any problems runnings this, irrespective of any manual settings i'd set.
I also recall having to phone Vodafone to ask them to ensure my GPRS was enabled as this affects MMS sending. Vodafone seemed to be happy to automatically switch it off for me every few months!
Hope this helps
I recently bought a MDA Vario II off Ebay, works great, when I got it I unlocked it and hard reset then clicked cancel so none of the Tmobile **** is installed. This is a wm5 phone on o2 pay and go.
The problem I am having is I cant use gprs, wap or use mms's.
Ive tried using all these sites (plus more) to no avail:

Ive tried installing the o2 cabs that you can find through the last link, none work. Ive checked, and double checked all settings for getting wap but it doesn't work. I cant receive email or go online.
One annoying thing, when I go into my messages folder and click on menu there is nothing I can click on to add mms settings! Argh!!
Has anyone experienced this before or know how to fix it? Recon upgrading to a cooked wm6 rom might bring it back, or a hard reset and installing the tmobile crap will work?
Cheers, T
There's a whole load of CABs for Operator settings on the Wiki - see here - scroll down to the O2 cab in the UK section.
Now, what I'm not sure of is whether the settings for PAYG are different to those for contract phones; however, given your lack of success so far, it won't hurt to try
EDIT: Read posts 1 & 6 (specifically) in this post for a load more info re: O2 PAYG settings
Hope this helps,
Mark.
Id tried the first one already, second one was new to me.
I installed it and nothing worked, so I changed the settings to pay and go, still doesn't work. The option for using MMS's hasn't even appeared!
I'm actually getting ****ing fed up with o2 now
I even read that they wont allow mobile internet fully... thats bull!
If anyone has any other suggestions that would great, otherwise Im gonna switch providers. Probably to 3 or t-mobile.
oops, double post
Try the attached cab, install it, soft reset, then you should get a 'connection setup' option in the connections control panel.
It should detect your carrier and automatically set everything up
Installed and it seems to have installed everything for contact o2. I tried changing all the settings it did to payandgo but when I try and access the web, ie, google.co.uk it displays that it is connected but internet explorer has a pop up that says 'the page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost'.
But when I try and access wsp://wap.o2.co.uk I get an error from the 'G' symbol at the top saying 'cannot connect for an unknown reason'.
I have checked and double checked the settings and nothing is working :/ still no option for MMS either :/
Think I will try and hard reset and reinstall all the t-mobile ****e... see what happens.
Haha! Got it working!
I did a hard reset and let it install all the t-mobile ****e. Then changed all the t-mobile internet settings to o2 ones and it works!
****ing strange considering its the exact same settings I had used a hundred times before. The t-mobile rom must have a registry setting or something.
The MMS options have even appeared now, should just have to tweak the settings to get it working!
Cheers for the help anyway guys!
Hi Everyone,
Please may you help, I am using a HTC HD2 phone running Windows Mobile 6.5
I have recently changed over to TalkMobile UK on pay as you go.
I have managed to set-up the GPRS settings no problem using the My ISP setting, but I cannot for the life of me get the MMS to work, and this is after help from the instore CPW staff, customer support at talkmobile on email and on the phone.
I have asked the automated system to send the settings, but this does not work, and confirmed by the customer services.
I think the problem lays somewhere in the My Work Network connection, particularly in the proxy settings.
I would be very grateful if someone could confirm what should go in this connection and in the MMS Settings to check where I am going wrong.
My last hope to get this sorted, or im going back to Tescomobile!
Thanks very much!
