MMS on Windows Mobile 5 - getting there but not there yet - Networking

My experiences with MMS on my PDA2K (Blue Angel) upgraded to Windows Mobile 5 on O2 UK PAYG:-
Pixer4MMS - a very stable MMS client. Pictures load easily without the application hanging like EZWap does (see below). I can send an MMS but I can't seem to be able to receive MMS's.
EZWap2.5 for Pocket PC Phone Edition - can WAP browse OK. WAP browsing is very fast - a lot faster than browsing WAP sites on Pocket Internet Explorer. But some problems with the MMS function. When loading a picture, the application always hangs and I have to do a soft reset to bring the Pocket PC back to life. I can send a MMS OK but again, I can't receive an MMS.
Arcsoft MMS Composer - I understand from posts on these forums that it doesn't work on Windows Mobile 5.
My device information:-
ROM version 5.03.02 WWE
ROM date 03/02/05
radio version 1.06.00
Protocol version 1337.38
ExtROM version (blank)
My quest to get a working MMS client goes on..........

An update
The reason I'm not receiving MMS messages is because they end up in my O2 media messaging inbox.
I have successfully sent MMS's from both Pixer and EZwap. Usually the next day, I get a SMS pointing me towards my O2 Active Media Message inbox and lo and behold, there they are.
I can't for the life of me work out why they are not appearing on my phone.
I contacted O2 and they gave me all the settings for the Exec which runs WM 5.0 and I can see that I'm using all the right settings for O2 on Pay as you Go.
If anyone is interested, here are the settings that O2 sent me:-

MMS on Windows Mobile 5 - got there!
I'm happy!!
A few days after sending my original posting, I am now pleased that I can now RECEIVE as well as send MMS's with EZWap 2.5 on my PDA2K Blue Angel upgraded to WM5.
The reason I couldn't receive is now clear to me I think. In the EZwap user guide pdf, it clearly states that "Enable Push" in the "Push" tab of the programme must be ticked in order to receive MMS's. I had ticked it but was using port 9201 whereas I needed to enter port 2901. I found this port number from the excellent instructions in this thread:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=5363&highlight=2901+port+o2
The relevant part from the above post that I followed and which made receiving MMS's suddenly work for me is:-
Push
- Enable Push: Ticked
- Address: Leave empty*
- Port: 2901
- Connectionless push gateway: Ticked
- WTLS secured connection: Unticked
* actually, I entered 193.113.200.195 in the address field and it works.
I'm happy!!

Translating vodaphone settings for XDA2 into XDA1

Long
I have recently moved from using my xda with O2 to vodafone. I have spoken to the vodafone helpdesk and have to explain what an xda is before I get anywhere. They don't support the xda. The best I have achieved is the information below but am now having difficulty applying what they say for the xda2 to my xda. This information is for an xda2 as I don't have the same menus or options
Can anyone read the stuff below and give me a step by step guide of what to put into my xda in order to access the internet and email? Hopefully some of the info below might be of interest to others.
Thanks

*HELP* o2 xda2 gprs settings!!! *HELP*

I recently brought myself an m1000, and had the phone unlocked so that I could use it with my o2 SIM card. The problem that I now have is that I have no modem installed, and I don't know what the settings are to create a new one... when trying to create one it asks me for a number..."enter the number exactly as it should be dialed..."
What is that number????
Many thanks
You asked for GPRS settings so there are no numbers to enter. Instead you need to enter an APN (Access Point Name) which looks like a domain name. Which one to enter depends on which service you want to use - and also needs to be authorised on your Sim:
WAP is: wap.o2.co.uk
Mobile Web is: mobile.o2.co.uk
you have to pick the option called gprs
then it dont ask you for nr but for access point
http://www.o2.co.uk/productsservices/ota2/select/0,,184,00.html?ref=quicklink_home
http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
my bad!!!
I made a mistake in what I was saying earlier with what I needed help with... what I want to do with my phone is to "add a new modem connection" I have searched all over the o2 website, and they have all of the details of what I need to do, but, when I try to set one up, one of the set up pages is
'Enter the number exactly as it should be dialed. Include any extra numbers, such as an outside line or credit card.'
There is no mention of this on the o2 site, and to set up, I have to enter a number, only I do not have the faintest clue as to what the number is!!!
Problem Solved!!!
Having searched for a while longer, I gave upand gave o2 a call...and all my problems are now solved
If any one else has the same problem I had, here are the manual settings that o2 sent me...

Issue with GPRS on O2 (UK) with WM6

Hi all,
Fairly new to all this but I successfully managed to upgrade to WM6 but can't get GPRS working after the upgrade. I've tried various versions of the Radio but nothing seems to work.
I've tried searching O2 on these forums but can find nothing.
Anyone got any ideas?
Regards
Hades
Still no-one with an idea?
Anyone know if I can extract the radio files from WM5 and input them into WM6? If so how would I go about this?
Hope someone can help me.
Regards
Hades
I am running WM6 and GPRS works fine with O2 UK. Have you checked all the settings?
Do a search and you should find a cab file floating around with the o2 settings.
Yeah I've hunted high and low in these forums and found a few places ppl are asking the same question but no real answer.
Any idea what radio version your using?
If so where can I get the cab?
Thx
Jim
Cant remember where on the forum I found this but these ae the settings I always use for O2 UK, always works.
