Anyone got MMS working using Vodafone UK and an XDA II? - Networking

Hi
I've recently unlocked my XDA II and am now using a Vodafone SIM. It works fine for making calls and for browing the net using GPRS.
However, MMS won't work (it seems to download message information OK, but not the messages themselves).
I've amended the WAP settings from the original O2 information, to the following so that in 'My Work Network' I have a connection setup as follows:
- modem type = Cellular Line (GPRS)
- APN = wap.vodafone.co.uk
- username = wap
- password = wap
And, having clicked on 'Tools > Options' within the MMS application, I have the following setup:
- Connect Via = My Work Network
- Retrieve Messages Immediately = checked
- Size Limitations (sending) = 200k
- No. of attempts before aborting = 3
- Download on home network only = unchecked
- on the Server tab: Gateway = 212.183.137.012 and Server Address = http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms
Hopefully this is enough info for someone to help me out with this!!! It used to work fine when I was on O2, so I can only think that I have some incorrect settings.
Thanks.

I went through this some months ago with Vodafone 'cause I couldn't get it to work either on my Qtek 9090. Problem was, neither could their teckies. They were all very helpful (large business account helped here no doubt) - but no solution. I gave up !

o2 UK gprs settings

Just installed the xda-developrs SE ROM
Seems to make the XDA run like a deamon, well impressed so far.
Just as everybody else though. The autoconfiguration doesn't work. So can't get the o2 wap settings up.
dns 193.113.200.200
and 193.113.200.201
np mobile.o2.co.uk
but something seems to be missing. Could somebody please supply the complete settings.
WAP...
Ehm, as far as WAP goes...
We did not include the EZWAP program in our install. So WAP is unlikely to work. WAP wasn't in Othman's Qtek ROM (it has no autoconfig settings and no WAP), and we didn't create mkrom to take input from multiple ROMs. We figured serious users would want to the new EZWAP which also does MMS (which isn't included by O2), and we never really used WAP or MMS ourselves. So I guess we never tested any WAP settings...
If you want you can have a look at the registry settings we insert for each provider in the 'provider' directory of the mkrom kit. If you think some settings are missing, you could do a registry dump (using the 'System Snapshot' we put in the ROM) before and after fixing the problem, and send us the differences. We can them insert them in next versions of the Special Edition ROM.

UK 02 XDA
Hi,
Thanks for the above info. It worked a treat. However I was asked for a Username, Password and Domain login when I connected to GPRS. So for those of you who do know it, here we go:
Username: web
Password: password
Domain: leave this blank.
Check the box to save the password.
Gil.
thanks, i will add it to my txt file
missed those
I am on O2 payg, using the xda, I have tried the gprs settings and it says the number isnt responding, when I use the gsm settings that are preset when doing auto config, I get charged even though I am on 300 free wap minutes, I dont think I am a stupid person but I have a feeling of having been here before when I previously had an O2 payg, any help would be appreciated. I am getting the free sms messages so I know the account is activated for the freebies. The "G" sysmbol comes on when i switch on the xda and stays there for about 10 seconds.
Hi. I'm new here so excuse me if I seem simple! I have unlocked my XDA using xdaunlock and now have same problem with GPRS dropping out after approx 10 seconds. It worked before, so has unlocking changed any settings? or has something else happened. The xda has the latest uk rom upgrade with 4.21 radio. Any help please as I dont know what to do! Thanks.
Please has anybody actually got a working setup for GPRS on O2 PAYG on the XDA, I have spent weeks on this and got nowhere. I have followed instructions to the letter from different websites and still no joy, I can connect to wap over gsm but gprs settings still elude me, anybody got a full description of settings please, and how to enter them. Thanks in advance.
Is there nobody on this forum using O2 PAYG sim and using wap over gprs? I cannot seem to find anybody with the settings, I wonder why, it seems like the holy grail just to get on line using the system that is available to me in theory? Help would be greatly appreciated.
Nobody in UK on O2 pay as you go :?: :?: :?:
Update on my problems with GPRS on O2 payg. I have tried every setting on this forum plus others, I always get error, not answering or some such, I have decided to stick to gsm connection using shortcode 951000 and exwap 2.5. if anybody can give me step by step, confirmed working settings, I would apprectiate it. This will be my last post on the subject, I am beginning to take up too much storage on the forum server with this. A resolution to the problem would be great as I can then save my connection settings to flash ram and not worry about it again.
cruisin-thru I am not on O2 so can offer limited help.
EzWAP2.5 could be yr problem.
I sometime find difficulty using WAP after a session mms'ing with EzWAP2.5 . A solf reset is then required before I can connect to WAP via gprs.
Here is my sugestion:
1.uninstall EzWAP2.5 completely
2.try to get connected to gprs or gsm WAP
3.try PIE, it works for WAP , but depending on yr
telco whether on gprs or gsm
4.if all the above is working then install EzWAP2.1
and see if it works
5.then EzWAP2.5 and see if it screw up everthing,
if not try mms.
Hope this helps, i am working blind here
OK, searched high and low and think this is the best thread to post this in.
Have just upgraded my XDA with the developers rom v1.2. Everything great for a while (3 days) Now it can not connect to gprs or gsm. I get the "There is no answer at the number dialed.
I am with O2 UK and have treble checked the settings and tried various alternatives however nothing works.
One thing I have noticed is that the autoconfig dropdown box says Austria One.....when I change that to O2 - UK and click OK to autoconfigure, it doesn't, it just comes back to Austria - One.
Phone works and SMS is fine, just GPRS/GSM
Do I need to re-flash or contact my provider....or please tell me there's a simple "fix" :lol:
Thanks
Ive got this reply through email from o2 im waiting now for password and username I will post soon as I get it
Go to Start > Settings > Connections > Connections, and then select the top modify option. Within this, there should be four connection types.... Select the GPRS WAP connection and modify the settings. You need to change anything that says o2wap to payandgo, and change the APN from WAP.o2.CO.UK to PAYANDGO.O2.CO.UK. Once you have amended these settings, tap and hold on this connection type and make it your default. You might want to rename this
Then, go into the EZwap application, and select tools and then options, and there should be a series of tabs. Select the general tab and make sure the connection in the drop down list, is the one you have just amended.

Hi, make sure first that it's your GPRS WAP connection that Ezwap is using, and set it to 'auto connect' in 'Options'
under the 'connection' tab set connection type to 'gateway' and put in your networks WAP IP address (o2 IRL's is 192.168.090.074). Click on 'connectionless gateway'
Untick 'wtls' secured connection.
Click on the 'MMS' settings tab next.
Put in your networks MMS 'Message Server' or MMS homepage. (O2 IRL's is http://mmsc.mms.o2.ie:8002)
All the other settings can be setup as you like.
1) Enable MMS on my account. Had to get 'pally' with a tech guy to do this as XDA is not supported; I suppose pretending I had a 7650 would have worked too.
2) Install EZWAP2.5
3) EZWAP Settings for O2UK:
General
"Connection"
- O2 WAP GPRS
- Connect automatically Y
- Rest on this tab default
Connection
"Connection Type"
- Gateway
- Address 193.113.200.195
- Port 9201
- Connectionless Gateway N
- WTLS secured connection N
- Rest on this tab default
Push
"Push"
- Enable push Y
- Connection type Address: blank
- Port 2901
- Connectionless Push gateway Y
- WTLS secured N
History/Cache & Identification - default
MMS
"MMS Settings"
-Message Server: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
-Sender Address Type: Phone Number
-Sender Address: My phone number
MMS Options - delivery recepit and read receipt Y
It's not 100% reliable, which I knew would be the case, but it's not too bad. Get now when the message arrives doesn't work, but I just open the MMS inbox and click the message to get it.

it's nearly to do with Vodafone GPRS/MMS....

Hi all, sorry to bother you with this one!
I got my O2 XDAII unlocked and used it with no drama at all with my Vodafone SIM. I then put the GPRS settings in and it worked fine with MSN Messenger and IE etc. I then put the MMS settings in and started sending and receiving picture messages perfectly. :lol:
The problem, i hear you ask....
Well, I got TomTom 3 and a program called POI Warner which is used to alert me of POI's (read, speed cameras :wink: ) and it wanted to connect to the Internet to update it's database. It always used to try once i'd dropped the XDA in the cradle. As something wasn't right somewhere, it used to lock up the XDA until it gave up trying and then it would release the XDA so that i could use it again. This all seemed to be because of the Activesync passthrough settings. :?
I set them as I should have (after reading on here what to do - thanks!) and then it worked fine. Still with me...??????
It seems that i can't send picture message anymore :shock:
I have all the settings from the other posts on here but somehow, my settings in the connections screen have gone loopy.
Can someone on Vodafone PLEASE PLEASE let me know what settings they have in the connections screen, be it two sets (My Work Settings and another) or (Vodafone GPRS and Vodafone MMS - as i used to have). And when you click the advanced tab at the bottom of the connection screens, which programs do you have for 'Programs that connect to the internet should use' and programs that connect to a private network should use'???
when you edit either of these, it comes up with ANOTHER connection screen - what you have got in there??
This is on top of the Server mentioned in the MMS composer screen that needs another mention of the same server in there!!!
If I can get this working with someone's help , I hereby promise to take a screenshot of every screen I have and put an idiots guide to getting this working up on the Web should I need it again!!
thanks in advance Guys!!
Firstly to clean things up a bit it'd look in the registry under [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Destinations] and remove all but:
'The Internet'
'Work'
'My Work Network' - or whatever it was renamed to
'My ISP' - or whatever it was renamed to
Then resetup all the connections.....
Here are the settings I have, which work perfectly.
Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:
Vodafone Internet (My ISP renamed)
Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using:
Vodafone Live! (My Work Network renamed)

Hw6915 & Gprs Settings For Orange Uk

Hi all.
I have the HP HW6915. I want to use it on my ORANGE UK Contract. Phone is fine but cannot connect to internet using GPRS.
I Have contacted ORANGE UK but no help from them as they don't sell this PDA/Phone.
Has anyone any ideas please.
Thanks
Orange GPRS on iPaq 6915
Orange do not care as they do not supply the iPaq - they just want us to use the SPVs.
To get Orange (UK) GPRS to work on your iPaq 6915 try this
- Set the modem = Cellular Line (GPRS)
- Access Point Name = orangeinternet
- username, password & domain = blank
- server assigned IP address
You'll probably find that MMS wont work by default either. If so use these
- Server name = Orange mms
- Gateway = 192.168.224.10
- Port no = 8080
- Server address = http://mms.orange.co.uk
- Connect via = ORANGE MMS
- WAP Version = 2.0 (set this first as it wipes all the settings above!)
The ORANGE MMS connection should be
- modem = Cellular Line (GPRS)
- Access Point Name = orangemms
- username = Orange
- password = Multimedia
Hope this helps

HTC TOUCH three UK settings

have downloaded the.CAB file so I can surf away but mobile.three.co.uk does not work as my homepage ?
worked fine on my Universal ??
any direction/help welcome
great site by the way everyone !
mobile.three.co.uk doesn't work on the Universal any more either, three have changed something and now you just get a blank page
If you have them bookmarked, you can still get to My3, Free to watch, Current spend, etc. but not "Today on 3" or Services.
If anyone has a solution, please post it.
found this elsewhere but it may be of help to you

Go to the Connection Settings page and create new connection (Start, Settings, Connections, Connections) Then add a new modem connection

Connect Via: The Internet
Send Limit: 300k
Wap Version: WAP 2.0
When done send yourself a piccy to test. Mine works fine with the above on 3"
The connections work fine, the problem is that we cannot access planet 3 (the 3 online 'walled garden'). I'm pretty sure the problem is that the phone is not supported, and is being blocked. The old method for changing the user agent with the registry doesn't work for WM6 or later versions of WM5 - you can add a value to HKLM/Security/Internet Explorer/... but this only appends a value to the user agent string, you cannot change the start of the string using this method.
I've heard it's possible if you edit browser.dll perhaps? Is there a guide for this? Or does anyone know a better way, perhaps with a (WM6-friendly) PIE add-on?
