hi
i have just bought a xda exec that is unlocked. i have a vodafone sim in it that i have taken out of my vodafone 3G data card.
i can send sms from the device but i can't use gprs / 3G
i have seen fourums on the net suggesting i need a cab file from i-mate, but unless you have an i-mate you can't get in.
i have also contacted vodafone, they suggested that i need a ROM update but wouldn't suggest where to get it.
Can anyone help me!!
Vodafone settings
Hey
I've got an Xda Exec and I've got no problems connecting to Vodafone GPRS/3G.
Im use the Tom Tom Navigator 5 with the Traffic information and I have no problems connecting.
Have you set up the ISP on your Xda Exec.
If you need the setting for the GPRS and the MMS for Vodafone send me a PM and I will provide you with the information.

I take it you have entered the Voda APN settings?
have a look here for various settings you will need

First time I have posted although I have done quite a lot of reading today ............
I have just purchased a new i-mate. Previously I have owned iPAQ 2650 and 5555. I find the i-mate to be a very promising device.
One problem has manifested itself though. My cell supplier provided me an i-mate, not an O2 XDA II, but on the O2 network. When attempting to set up the GPRS I found it a bit tough going and called O2 support which informed me that the O2 XDA II had an essintial piece of software that enabled the owner to easily configure WAP and GPRS setting. Obviously my i-mate does not have that software and we proceded to configure manually. The O2 tech said that in the future I was likely to experience trouble with GPRS as a result of not having the configuration software.
I am having trouble already today by virtue of connection trouble and a reluctance to load web pages and my AOL.
I notice that O2 has a ROM upgrade on their site. Does anyone know what the result of me upgrading my i-mate with this software will be?
Has anyone else had any similar problems?
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Wes
I have an XDAII which I have set up GPRS on both Vodafone and o2 in the UK. I have also set up an imate in the UK for Vodafone. I assume you should have no problem setting up a GPRS connection for o2. Check the forum for the GPRS settings for o2, and set up in Connections. The imate manual has instructions on how to do this. If you get stuck send a post.
Maybe somebody could help me to connect XDA IIs with Meteor SIM to GPRS internet (ISP).
Thank you.
same here...
meteor help line is no use at all! "we don't support phones which we don't sell" what da hell? leave alone windows mobile devices - the never heard about them..
they got me really pissed off, so I rang them every day, until some superviser told me that he personally (!) will contact Qtek manufacturers and get the instruction on how to set up ISP GPRS manually... well we'll see
any updates I will post here
p.s. i have qtek s200 btw
OK I am guessing neither of you even attempted to google for meteor gprs settings, because the very first result gives you the wap, mms, and internet settings you need.
Hey everyone, i have just got myself a MDA Vario free from T-Mobile on an upgrade and have unlocked it straight away thanks to the Lokiwiz Unlocker-(Thanks Mate)
But now that i have my O2 sim in my phone but cannot go online, without my wifi connection. I often go online when im in the car stuck in traffic and bored out of my wits.
The main question is....
Does anyone who has an O2 Mini S have any of the cab files from the Ext ROM that defines the O2 connection settings? so that i could use the GRPS or Edge that comes with the wizard??
Really appriciate anyone that cn help me on this.
Thanks
Ash

or search forum button at top of screen
whilest you can use the cabs search for my posts and in 1 I listed all 3 of the O2 UK contract settings (from the O2 online dept - not 100% sure if they are the same).
Has anyone managed to get a tytn working on the uk o2 network? o2 say theu do not support the phone although they have the phone in germany listed as an xda trion. I can make calls and texts with my simcard but have no 3g access as yet. The phone was originally on vodaphone. Any help appreciated !
dont you just need to edit the connection settings for o2?
these should be the same for any o2 phone that uses 3g...
i believe they are posted on the wiki
thanks for quick answer
Thats what i thought, but phoned o2 for the settings and they just kept saying that the "software" in this phone is not compatible with o2 network and therefore there is no support for it and no settings ! MUPPETS !
Any idea where i can find the settings for a normal o2 phone?
Worth a try, I really want this phone on o2 !

I smell COW DUNG!!!! O2 are spinning rubbish to you sir...ive been using a TyTN since the middle of August with O2-UK (see stats hehehe).
Il get my settings into a .txt file for you...theres some variations you can use but il set you up with the ones that work ok??
What are you on PAYG or Contract???
P.S: My TyTN is a genuine HTC TyTN (i.e not a varioII or imate JASJAM variation of it) bought it unbranded(unlocked) from mobilefun.co.uk....sim free.
Theres a cab file with the O2 UK settings somewhere on this forum I usen it all the time. Sorry I don't have the link anymore after the XDA Dev switch to new servers. Also O2 3G works perfectly fine with the tytn. What you do have to have is a 3G enabled sim card, I had to get mine changed for one & also do you have O2 3G coverage where you are? To determine if you have just whip out the sim card & it should have 3G printed on it.
Yer if your SIM is not a 3G enabled one (USIM) then give O2 a bell and say you have recently aquired a 3G handset and need a new SIM card for it to work with the 3G service....they should send one out (for free)...when it turns up just call O2 again and get them to enable it.
What they said about the TyTN not being supported is a crock of sh*t .... im guessing they will only give you the settings when its an O2 handset!?
Forgot to add the O2 3G settings are exactly the same as the normal GPRS. You just need a 3G enabled sim card
Hi,
Now I successfuly got WM6 running I want to properly sort out my Himi to be about to MMS , browse and finally email.
I have seen so much conflicting info and setting advice I am truely lost.
I am presently on o2 payandgo and the sim definately was enabled for MMS in my old K700i phone.
Can someone talk me through whatever various new connections I must make to get the above working on o2.
I heard that maybe o2 doesn't allow GPRS browsing/email on pay&go sims. Can anyone comment ?
If anybody in the UK has got a Himi or similar running 100% with any other UK pay and go provider EG Voda, Orange , T-Mobile , Virgin , even Tesco then I
'd like to hear about it and share your setting details.
Thanks
