I am based in South Africa, and connected to Service Provider MTN Cellular. My XDA2 is working fine except for MMS. I have been onto the technical people at MTN, and with their settings provided, I still cannot get MMS to work.
I have created a GPRS connected under My Work Place, which connects to the GPRS service, but when trying to send or receive a MMS the "yellow box with green arrow" shows and advises "sending or receiving", but the MMS does not get sent or received.
I have setup the server name, gateway and http address in the MMS Composer, as per the settings given to my by MTN, but no joy !!!!!!!!
If anyone knows MTN in South Africa and how to setup MMS, please advise. My hair has gone grey over this >>>>>>>>>>>
Thank you

I´m traveling in Spain for the next few weeks, and I bought a Vodaphone pre-paid SIP. The manual (as much as I can understand it, which is not much) insists that GPRS (or at least WAP) is enabled (€0.02 a KB). When I turn the radio stack on, the "G" promptly appears in the status bar as soon as the network connection is acquired. I entered the following parameters (which I obtained from the web):
APN: airtelwap.es
User name: [email protected]
Password: wap125
In the instructions, there was also "Direccion IP" which I assume is a name server. I tried with or without it, but I can´t get to any web pages. The device (XDA II) connects to GPRS, but I can´t even ping what the IP stack says is my router.
Could someone please help me with this? The manual of the SIM says that it is a "self-rechargable" card (whatever that means). Is it possible that they only allow WAP, or I have to go through some sort of proxy?
My Spanish is extremely poor, and I´m sure nothing good will come out of trying to call tech support (after all, it never helps even with English-speaking operators in the States)
Thanks,
Mike.
I have recently unlocked my phone so that I may use it on Vodafone as the O2 coverage in my area is not the best.
My question is is it possible to log onto to the Vodafone GPRS system with my XDA.
If so how do I configure my XDA so that it works.
Awaiting With Interset Your Replies

im having the same problem
GPS
Youll need a slieve or gps reciever for the nav system to work. it will work fine with vodaphone, just not on its own as a hand set.
Vodafone GPRS Settings
Hi Vodafone GPRS setting on XDA are as follows: Start/Setting then connection tab, click Connections and on My ISP, add a new modem connection. Enter name i.e. Vodafone then select modem type Cellular Line(GPRS).Internet Access point is 'Internet' if your on contract, and 'pp.vodafone..co.uk' if your on pay as you go. Next user name is web and password is web. That's it your done, go surf. :roll:
Re: Vodafone GPRS Settings
Tried your connection setup as suggested and got the message 'No modem at above number'. Any clue what next, Thanx
Vodafone GPRS Settings
As far as I can see these settings work fine on the XDA1, I do not have access to a XDA2 so i cannot confirm if these settings will work on XDA2.
Doh! after categorically stating I had followed gadgetnet's advice and couldn't still get web access on my xda2 I have to eat humble pie. Gadgetnet's advice is spot on but ofcourse technonerds like me have to first of all check that their service provider has GPRS enabled their sim cards. I got Vodafone to enable GPRS on my sim (simply a phone call request made to their call centre) and half an hour later I was surfin in fine style. Remember if you want to access Adult sites like the National Lottery you have to go on line by other means to the vodafone website and set it up. Takes about 15mins with credit card as ID of age.

hi guys was wondering the above? i heard its quite difficult to get the EDGE/gprs working on this phone in india.
Thanks!
No. Getting EDGE to work is as simple as in any other country. Just find out APN settings of your provider and add them from settings.
thank u so much i will do so!
Im sorry for being daft but when u say sim unlocked,does it mean it will work on any network in the world? Or just diff networks in the country u bought it in? Im askin cause im in india and i hope it works here

www
rest is default
Hi,
I have problem in accessing the secure sites using the normal vodafone GPRS connection wit the APN "portalnmms" None of the "https" sites will open nor can I use the active sync or other push emails.
I tried to create a new APN with "www" but once I selected it as the default APN, my GPRS stopped working. I have not changed any other settings. Please could anyone help.
Thanks,
Deepak
Gprs settings not recieving from airtel.
I am using Airtel as it Is..... can someone tell me what settings work on my stock HTC magic phone. I have Airtel live activated. And I was very able to browse and log in to my mails etc. (The customer care guy was surprised that I had been able to access mails on Airtel, however I dont y he felt so). But when I went on roaming I was not able to access my mails but only cue browse the net. Then I tried resetting my fone to factory settings losing the Airtel live settings. Then called up Airtel and asked to send the settings, BUT THEY SAID THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO SEND THE SETTINGS TO MY CELL AS I WAS IN ROAMING.
Then even when I came back to local, they were not able to send me the gprs/mobile office settings to my magic. Any idea guys ......?
not able to avail 100MB plan from airtel
After repeatedly making requests to airtel customer care, I am not able to get the free 100 MB plan, which comes with new Airtel magic, activated on my handset.
It seems that Airtel is not yet technically equipped to support android handsets.
I am using AirtelLive and paying 100Rs/month for usage
Even I am also facing the same problem. SSL sites not opening up. Not able to access gmail/gtalk/Android Market on my GPRS connection. Have a Vodafone connection.
Tried the "www" APN settings thing.
Didn't work.
Any breakthrough so far?
After going through a few forums, I guess its a problem with the APN. Many people suggest clearing the proxy and the port fields. I tried that. But then, my EDGE connection was lost and I couldn't connect to the net. Following are the current APN settings that I am using:
Name: Vodafone live
APN : portalnmms
Proxy: 10.10.1.100
Port : 9401
MCC : 404
MNC : 27
APN type: default
If anyone is using any other settings on Vodafone, Do inform.

Well I have magic (not bought from airtel, but imported from TW), I have taken 399 gprs plan and every thing works fine. I sync exchange mail, gmail, yahoo mail, browse including secure sites. No problems at all.
1) You need to get mobile office GPRS plan activated on your number
2) APN settings are simple -> Set APN to airtelgprs.com and leave all other settings as is and set APN type to default, if your mobile office is activated you can see all you data stuff working.
Update: I have this from June 09 even before HTC launched Magic with Airtel

APN issue
I flashed my HTC Magic to Amon Ra's 1.6 ROM. Everything works perfectly except gprs. The baffling thing is that when I put in some random settings for the APN, they get saved, of course it doesn't work, but when I add the correct settings, the new APN doesn't appear in the list at all and the gprs does not work. I am using a vodafone connection. Any ideas?

Does anyone know the GPRS/EDGE settings for Aircel for the HTC P3400? Their customer care is useless.....
Aircel GPRS Settings
Go to start>>Settings>>connections>>add a new modem connection
Now Enter name of the connection aircelgprs
select a modem cellular Line (GPRS)
Now click next and type aircelgprs wherever asked
thats it
it works
Well sometimes that doesnt work you could also try this
Start => Settings=> Connections=>
connection name: Aircel Online
select a modem: Cellular line GPRS
Access point name: aircelgprs
Remember alphabets are case sensitive.
OK, so can anybody give me GPRS/EDGE settings for Vodafone, India ?
I called the customer care but they don't know a thing.
So, if anybody knows then do share.
Thanks

Vodafone has two services, Live and Mobile Connect. Which one are you talking about?
For Vodafone Connect:
Provide www as the access point.
For Vodafone Live:
Read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=390035
I think the access point name for aircel gprs is "aircelgprs.po" for post paid and "aircelgprs.pr" for prepaid. correct me if i am wrong. Restart your phone after configuring the connection.
I got same problem doing this also no internet conn.
error is cannot connect with current settings.
APN aircelweb, send PI to 121 first.
