Vodafone GPRS settings - Networking

Ok, I hate myself for having to do this.
Qtek 9090 on Vodafone, Rom 1.4, radio 1.12
Can't connect. Have used all the recommended settings (APN "Internet", Web, web etc.) but it's not dialing up.
I am sure that my old settings were for the device to dial something like *99#, which always worked fine.
Now I can find no reference to this, and am, basically, stuck.
Guys, I really need some help here, have run out of ideas.
(BTW, vodafone customer support are genuinely the most thick-witted bunch of invertebrates I have ever come across).

I have the same config and all works fine. in UK and abroad.
did you change the previous config, or is it a new config you are trying?
What message did you get?
Cheers

Yes. See the FAQ entry on Howard Forums - I wrote a piece on how to fix this. I am running the Imate ROM.

Can you point a link to the download that you mention in the FAQ.
I have the updated ROM but unable to get the GPRS working for T-Mobile USA. Many thanks in advance.
alright i got my GPRS back up and running.
i just added a new connection, called it T-MOBLE GPRS and set the access point to internet2.voicestream.com.
most people on this forum mention how this particular ROM seems to run faster, but i havent really noticed any performance increases yet
Possible help GPRS, etc
This might be of benefit to some with the GPRS trouble after update.
1. I did the Imate ROM update and had lots of trouble with GPRS MMS etc..
2. Didn't know how to fix so - I started over...
3. I installed the Qtek ROM and had the same connection issues.
4. Called T-Mobile - got a 3rd level tec and he suggested something I had not heard before. Now keep in mind that I had reset several times hard and soft. He had me go inot Comm and hit the phone icon - and turn it off and on. I am not sure exactly why - but it worked! His explanation was that since I was going back and forth between work and home that the phone (which is supposed to switch automatically didn't and) got locked somehow. I am pretty new to all of this but already did 3 ROM updates - so learning a lot.
5. Now all my connections work the way they are suppose to. Only ONE connection and that is wap.voicestream.com as it should be. My WiFi connection is blazingly fast! I am a happy camper - but I went around and around with this for about 2 days before getting a tec that gave me this advice.
Perhpas someone can tell me which is newer (better) the Qtek or the Imate ROM??
Thanks,
Shep
ok i have searched all over howard forums and here about the GPRS settings for T-Mobile USA.
in one particualr post it mentions you have to set the appropriate access point for your type of internet service. Personally, i have the T-Mobile total internet for $29.99.
I have applied both of these setting as my access point
internet2.voicestream.com and wap.voicestream.com
both of these settings allowed me to connect to the GPRS network, so i guess my question is which setting should i be using????
T-Mobile is shipping all these devices with wap.voicestream.com, and has opened the ports for people on the "real" internet service using it.
If you use "internet2", you will have problems with MMS, since you can't send MMS through that AP. There are workarounds for this but they are messy. My recommendation is that you use wap.

"3" Australia Carrier Operator Settings

Hi All,
I have an Imate Jasjam which the extended ROM has many operator setting cabs except for "3" Australia (hutchison telecom).
I know that 3 Aust sell the Dopod 838pro therefore they must have some cabs to set the device for mms, gprs umts and other services.
If anyone has the Dopod 838pro from "3" in Australia, could you please retrieve the cab files for me in your extended rom.
Its a real pain in th @ss as "3" wont help me over the phone, and thye cannot send me any settings. They were acutally surprised that the Jasjam works with their sim card, even though all hermes devices are the same. go figure.....
anyways, any help will be greatly appeciated.
Cheers,
Anyone?
Can any Dopod 838pro owners help?
Thanks
Ronny
Here is the mobile internet settings
don't have the cab but i got the settings for Three Aus
To get mobile internet
Go to settings -> Connections -> Connections
Add a new modem connection
Name the connection Three (or anything else)
Use Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) as your modem
Access point name is "3services"
NO USERNAMES OR PASSWORDS JUST CLICK FINISH
And your internet is set up
Hope that helps
JasJam on Three
Hi All,
I am very new to this and not overly technical so firstly many thanks for the internet settings above as they worked just fine.
Secondly, would anyone have the settings to get MMS and Video etc working on a jasjam? I bought one off ebay but I am with Three network and while I can make normal calls (and now get the My3) I cannot get MMS, video calls or other 3 options working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,

MMS problem on Vodafone UK - please help!

Hi guys,
I consider myself a pretty good with these devices but this one's got me...even the good ol' search facility aint giving me what I need.
Basically I got an unlocked Orange SPV M3100 with a Voda UK contract SIM.
I setup all the connection details and MMS server as i've found on web but also the HTC utility which sets it all up for you. I get the internet ok but no MMS!
'Error synchorizing' or similar is what I get - it doesnt even try to fire up the data connection - immediate response and i've triple-checked the settings for the MMS server. Anyone point me in a better direction?
Much appreciated.
My bet would be the MMS port is wrong, it should be 9201. Has the same problem after using a vodafone settings cab, everything else worked, just no MMS.
Double check your settings against the 2nd post in the thread below, i have used this setup many times and these settings are all 100% right.

Hi mate,
thanks so much for your reply. Still not working but I suspect it's something to do with the new WM6 (LWVS) rom i've got..it doesn't seem to be happy with it.
I've never had a problem before with any other version...weird.
Try Black, ive had no problems on vodafone and im flashing 3.01 as i type. I also find radio 1.40.30.00 works very well on vodafone, get it from the wiki if you havnt already
Just tried Black 3.01 as well and same problem...i must be doing something stupid..i've found several sets of instructions (all the same) and used the HTC utility which installs the settings for you (you select your country and operator) and I still get the same issue.
The thing I find really weird is that the MMS application doesn't seem to even attempt to initiate a data connection - just errors straight away.
I've not flashed back to LWVS Rom as it's my preferred flavour but i've got to be doing something wrong or missing something.
My radio ROM is 1.41.00.10 - not related to that is it? I'm about to try the version our mate has suggested above but if anyone has any other ideas...please do let me know.
Thanks!
It appears i'm a turnip!
It works - now that i've had a test sent to me! But if i manually press send/recieve it errors so probably was working all along! stupid error messages.
Thanks for your help though James - much appreciated.
im having this same problem on tmobile usa. any pointers guys. ever since the first version on wm6 i haven't been able to send or recieve a mms

MDA Vario II on O2Pay and Go no MMS/WAP Help!!!

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:
http://www.o2.co.uk/services/ota4/select
http://www.o2.co.uk/services/waystoconnect/getsetup
http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/ppc-faq/6251-q-what-uk-roi-gprs-settings-web-wap-mms.html
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299023
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!

HTC Hermes on Three Network in the UK?

I have been given a "Hermes" from the O2 Network (XDA Trion), I want to use it on the Three Network here in the UK. Are there any settings or software resets I need to do? I understand that this phone was not intended for this network, but it seems the best phone for my needs. Any comments? Suggestions? Tips?
Hope you can help! Thanks!

Hi. I did this recently. I flashed to schap's latest rom which had some way of automatically configuring the phone (but I don't know if that happens without the rom). In order to get to planet 3 (eg check balance) you will need to pretend to be an allowed phone (eg n95 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=341755&page=2 ).
If you need any help, just ask. Seems to work perfectly, and with schaps rom I get hsdpa .
