I went through all this,and can tell you that o2 payg doesn't support gprs.That's why people use Orange payg.

thanks
thanks for ur help do u know if you can keep your phone number is you swich networks.

I do Believe
I do believe that if you call O2 CS that can transfer your number to a different carrier.

Blackberry APN Vodafone...

Please help...
I have a xda2 running on a corporate Bes server everything on Mail side works perfectly only problem i have is getting internet access to work through the hidden apn on the blackberry service.
I have looked though all the posts and not found much about this..
My question is ... do vodafone (uk) have a proxy server address or is this a problem with my sim (gprs) ?
I can use the standrd Apn from vodafone which works but drops my blackberry service when it connects.... so if you want to browse the web you will lose your email until you stop browsing and stop start BB service... Any ideas ?
Rom Version : 2.02.t1WWE
Radio version : 1.18.00
Thanks guys !... Really impressed with this wicked forum...
We have over 300 standard blackberrys and 1 xda2 I need to show them the xda is the future ... :lol:

Any consolation that it does the same for O2
It is set up so that if you connect to the internet, it drops BB until the internet connection is released. You have a BB APN & an (ISP) Internet APN.
Are you running BES4 yet? I heard that it was going to be better for XDA2 but haven't seemed to get any benefits yet

Blackberry Client
BaZzA,
We have just started with Blackberry and users are being supplied with the Blackberry 7100 . I have an XDA 2 on Vodafone IRl and have been trying to set it up but the only client software I can find for it is the T-Mobile I found a link to on this forum . I've checked the Vodafone.ie web site but they don't seem to like XDA for some reason .Any idea where I might find a client that doesn't have German settings ????
Thanks ...
HW

Both the client and the application i used ...
you will need to get your vodafone sim enabled for use on the blackberry.net APN.... does work fine ... until i tried a new sim cant seem to unlock my Pin code from my bes server...now
But does work very well..

Oh ... Puff The Magic Wagon!
not running Bes 4.0 yet will do very soon .
Baz

Tks
Thanks BaZza,
I'll give it a go with an enabled SIM tomorrow..

Mobistar GPRS: 'no modem'

Hey guys,
I have a Qtek 9090 and I recently activated GPRS on my Mobistar account - went to one of their shops and had one of those freckle-faced amateur kids set it up for me and everything - then I had to manually enter the settings on my Qtek, no problem so far, but whenever I try to connect, it says 'connecting' for a while then 'No modem at above number'.
I tried a variety of combinations with the settings 'provided' by Mobistar (they're not exactly fine examples of customer communications), but nothing worked.
Here are my settings:
Modem: Cellular line (GPRS) - nothing wrong here, I presume;
Access point name: I tried 'internet.be', 'web.pro.be' and 'mworld.be', but nothing worked.
User name and Password: Both 'mobistar'
IP adress: Server-assigned
Software compression: Tried checked and unchecked.
IP header compression: Tried checked and unchecked.
Server adress: DNS 212.065.063.010, Alt DNS 212.065.063.145
I also tried every combination of authentication (PAP/CHAP) and class (8/10) settings. The thing Mobistar activated for me was their Orange World program, or something, where I have to pay a fixed sum of 6 euros a month, and a little extra for actual GPRS traffic.
I'm going crazy about this, I already went back to their shop twice and each time another smelly, greasy teenager fumbled with my Qtek for a while, could to NOTHING MORE than entering these same settings AGAIN (as if I was too stupid to do that) and tell me it SHOULD work. Sorry for the shouting... this is getting under my skin... :wink: I'm actually a nice person you know... 8)
I hate these kids, they do fine 90% of the time because 90% of the customers are even dumber... so they think they know it all.
Ok, I'm done now, it's off my chest. Sorry.
Any ideas?

An awnser from one of the greasy kids :wink: :
Did you try as dns: 212.065.063.143
This is the information I used with a lot of MDA's with mobistar as provider:
APN:
mms.be (for Mobistar Friends and Optimum-customers)
tempomms.be (for Tempo-customer)
User ID: mobistar
Password: mobistar
Acces point name: web.pro.be
WAP Gateway IP: 212.065.063.143
MMS Server URL: http://mmsc.mobistar.be

:lol: You greasy kids ain't so bad after all, thanks for answering so quickly.
Unfortunately, nothing helped, but get this: I talked to a very competent Mobistar Helpdesk guy on the phone today and apparently I'm not subscribed to their Orange World service at all! So the first kid, the one in the Mobistar shop that processed my application, is the one that messed up. I guess that greasy teen was having a bad day. Or I was, or whatever. Still, after talking to a number of other Mobistar people, you'd think they would have noticed this!
Anyway, I was told to wait another 48 hours until my request is processed, then I'll try again.
Damn, it's more fun totally hating a group of people, it sucks when some of them turn out ok!!! :wink: Guess that's what's wrong with mankind. 8)

MMS and TMobile on the DOPOD 838 PRO

Oi..
The troubles I have been having!
I recieved my 838 Pro last week and have FINALLY gotten the internet/GPRS to work. I had been following the directions for the MDA on the tmobile website for how to get such things to work, but all I had to do was NOT use a proxy server.
But I cannot for the life of me get MMS to work. It wont send a message, it will recieve a notification that I have a message coming in, but will not download the attachments.
I'm in Boston MA (USA) if that helps at all.
ANY help would be very very nice as I've spent more than 9 hours with customer service on the phone with Tmobile and countless hours searching the internet.
Thank you.

Pretty please?
Is there really nobody in the states using tmobile with this hermes device?!?!?! None of you use MMS?!!>!>!??!
I just want to know your setup please.

here is the mms server info i have with my o2 xda trion under tmobile.
server name: T-Mobile MMS
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port number: 8080
Server address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Connect via: (your data connection)
hope that works for you.

What are your settings for the data part? I already have exactly what you do....

Oh wow...
THank you so much... I had .050 at the end of my string and you have .50..
Guess what now works.
You've just solved something that their top tier of help couldnt figure out.
Now one more question for you..
I send an animated gif or a big jpg to myself.. when I get it back it's always a jpg and always around 5 or 6 k.. What gives?

O2 iPhone contract on Wizard

I am using my Wizard on an O2 iPhone contract. Calls and sms are working fine but I can't get connected to GPRS Internet. The settings I am using are:
AP: idata.o2.co.uk
user name: vertigo
password: password
Anyone know if I can connect with the Wizard and, if I can, the settings I need to use?
Sorry if this has already been answered, I did search before posting.

After much fiddling and inputting and grumbling on my part,O2 finally admitted that GPRS is not supported on this mobile either as contract or payasyougo. They wouldn't say why.
