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)

O2 MMS not sending out

Sorry if this has been answered before (but I can't find a solution).
I have loaded latest o2 rom in corporate mode and entered the MMS config but all I get is :
"Unable to send your message(s). Your message(s) will remain in the Outbox."
The settings I have are:
For MMS settings
server O2UK
193.113.200.195
port 9201
server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
I have a wireless connection at home and am not sure what MMS should connect through (connect via choice in settings).
Anyone have an idea or had the same problem?
Steve

i have had the same problem. never figured out how to get it to send, despite trying lots of things in connection settings, so gave up in the end.
would be interested to hear the answer tho! )

Use your gprs operator settings.. You cannot have any other connection...

hey here are the O2 settings that work for me to enable sending of MMS Messages
in MMS Configuration under servers i have
Server Name O2UK
Gateway 193.113.200.195
Port number 9201
Server address http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connect via My Work Network
Then in settings under the connections tab click on Connections
Add a new modem connection under My Work Network
This should be called something like o2 Active connecting using Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
Access point wap.o2.co.uk
username o2web
password password
leave everything else as default.
This should let you send MMS Messages, it works for me!

Thanks mjames_84 those settings are working now.
Hope it helps others too.

ah... this might be the problem - i do
i already have a connection setup in both "My Connections" and "My Work Connections"
is there no way around this?

tried deleting the other connection in "My Work Connections" and yup - MMS sends fine now. not sure what i'll do when i need that connection again, but for the moment - yay, MMS fun

One thing I have noticed ....
Even with the settings above - I cannot get MMS to send with "WAP 2.0" selected (default setting) under MMS configuration
As soon as I select WAP 1.2 they send straight away
Anyone else noticed this ?

Hmm I'm not 100% sure on this, but I think if you want to use WAP2.0 you have to specify a different port. I seem to remember that when using personal mode instead of corporate it was set up to use WAP2.0 and the port was different to the settings I had previously written down from my old XDAII....I still used the settings from my XDAII cause I know that they worked.
Can anyone (mad enough) running the full personal installation with o2 Active find out what port is used my default when using WAP2.0 for sending MMS Messages?

Port number for WAP 2.0 is 8080

Thanks Lord Buckingham
Does anyone know what the difference is between WAP 1.2 and 2.0? Is 2.0 faster? better? more secure?

But even with port 8080 selected I still can't send MMS with wap 2.0 selected - yet with 1.2 I can send them via port 9201 or 8080 ! the port number was the first thing I changed when I had problems , from the default 8080 to 9201 (which seemed to be the obvious choice ) so it seems that wap 2.0 just doesn't work for me
very strange ! I'd be interested to know if anyone is using 2.0 successfully (just out of curiousity)

I sent one near the start, but had to reduce the pic size below 100K or something, if I recall....
Anyone confirm what the limits are on O2?

I still cannot get it to send using any of the above settings or the original ones that o2 active install. If I use the o2 3g contract sim that came with it then it sends with NO PROBLEM whatsoever, BUT I don't use my contract sim ever, I use a o2 online sim which I have used for years.
Any ideas?
Is the settings different for PAYG and for CONTRACT ?
If so then I need the settings for PAYG please guys, can you help?

if you are using an old "on line" SIM I suspect that it might be one of the old Genie internet SIMs, so the settings may be different. Try setting the device up as pay and go, so change the APN to "payandgo.o2.co.uk" , username "payandgo", password "password", all the other settings should be the same. If this fails, climb into a large bottle of red wine, sometimes its the only way :wink:

Hey, i couldnt get it to download a message and the fix above worked.
Im assuming that as it connected to the 3g network that it charged me for d/ling the message yeah?
can it to be set to do it when its synced with the computer or in a wifi area?
Cheers
JAmes

Got mine working with WAP 2.0 !!
The settings I have are:
Server: O2UK
193.113.200.195
Port 8080
Server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connect via: The WAP Network

Tytn won't download MMS

Hey folks,
Received notification of my first MMS since getting the Tytn. I selected "Download" and also "Send/Receive" several times, and it won't download the stupid thing.
I'm on Cingular, and here are the settings I entered manually, per Cingular's website:
Gateway: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 8080
Server: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect via: (I've tried "The Internet" and "Media Net" here)
Sending size limit 250k
WAP version: WAP 2.0
The following items are checked in Preferences:
-Retrieve Messages Immediately.
-Save Sent Messages
-Allow Delivery Report
Attempts before giving up: 4
Photo resolution: original
The file being sent to me is only 109k so I don't think it's too big by any means.
Does anyone on Cingular have any different settings?
Thanks.

Cingular MMS Settings
Hello, this is my first reply on this board so here it goes.
i had plenty of problems at first with cingular and mms working together untill i tried these settings which are pretty similar to yours besides the port #.
Server name: Cingular MMS
Gateway: wirless.cingular.com
Port Number: 80
Server address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect via: My ISP
Sending size limitaion: 250k
WAP Version: WAP 2.0
Now a couple of explanations. ( to the best of my ability. please feel free to correct.)
server name: this is either the default name or you can create a new server name of your choice. I have gone as far as deleting the default server and creating the new name of Cingular MMS. Or for example you could put Joe Blows Server Or JBS for the new name whatever you like.
Gateway: has to be as is. (as far as I know.)
Port number: Although ther are several port numbers to use I have found that this number (80) is what actually made everything work.
Server address: has to be as is. (as far as I know.)
Connect via: whatever connections you have to connect to the internet you should have mms connect the same way.
Sending size limitation: 250k is the maximum. (If there is any way of getting mor plese let me know.)
WAP Version: I dont know the difference between WAP 1.2 and 2.0 except 2.0 sounds better.
Also under prefernces i have.
Retrieve messages imediately-checked
Download on home network only-not checked
Save sent messages-checked
Regect all messages-not checked
Allow delivery report-checked
Allow read report-not checked
Attempts before giving up-4
Photo Resolution-Origional
The only setting that I would think of be crucial is download on home network only. (for cost reasons. depending on plan. I guess.)
Other than that just make sure the little red arrow is on the server that you just configured or created and you should be set to go. if any one finds any of this info false please feel free to comment, otherwise this is what I have found to work on my htc tytn here in the usa on cingular and cingular UMTS. GOOD LUCK.....

correct, should be port 80, thats what mine is, and my max sending limit is 600...
here is another thought, why not extract the cab from the cingular extended rom that installs the MMS settings?

you also need to go thru the Cingular proxy server. set up the proxy server under Settings->Connections->Edit My Proxy Server for the connection you are using. under Advanced change HTTP to wireless.cingular.com also make WAP & Secure WAP 66.209.11.61 (leave the ports as they are).

The settings from Cingular website (https://www.cingular.com/support/deviceTutorials.do) is correct. However, I made 1 tweak:
In the "Connect via:" box, I put "My Work".
I created an additional entry in the "My Work Netwokr" (Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections) and put wap.cingular as the APN.
This way, when an MMS need to be sent or downloaded, the device will drop the 3G / GPRS connection and connect via the MMS setting. Afterwards, it'll connect back to the 3G / GPRS connection.

mine does that with the default setup, i stay on my isp, but if i send or recieve it automatically drops the connection and connects via media net, once its done it goes back to my isp

A few newbie questions

I'm in the UK and have got hold of a new O2 DXA Mini S.
I'm on the Orange Network in the UK and the unit works fine in everyway except for sending mms messages.
I can make call and send/receive texts but not mms messages.
Someone told me it was to do with the fact that even thought its unlocked there is a default setting in the rom with it being an O2 branded unit and the only way to be able to be able to send/receive mms messages would be to reflash it. Is this correct?
Secondly, yesterday I noticed on the 'TODAY' screen that I had a battery status notification that has now disappeared - all I have done is to remove some software from the remove programmes section - there was one entry in there that looked like it was something to with O2 settings.
Butr I cannot find a way of getting the battery status onto the 'Today' screen now.
Or are there any free progs about that I can install that will do the same thing ?- it seemed quite useful to have it on front screen.
I have somehow managed to get rid of all the O2 branded stuff from the phone - was the battery status on TODAY screen part of that?
Thirdly my friend has a unit and on the TODAY screen by the date, the day also is shown - eg thursday 23 november
all I can get is the date. Cannot find anyway of putting the day name onto the TODAY screen.
Lastly is there a way of restoring the unit to how it was as it came out of the box?
There were two setup options when I first turned the unit on - one was for O2 customers which I accepted, as I knew it would work with an Orange SIM - the other option was a more customised option - someone has told me I should have probably selected this in order to be able to send mms messages on my own network.
Thanks
Sorry for the confusing post

mms settings
in my opinion you should make a new connection.
let orange send you the settings.
this should solve this

I've got the orange settings but it won't let me send or receive mms.
I can send text and browse internet through Orange but I've noticed there is a default O2 setting within the mms settings that the system won't let me delete.
I imagine the rom would need to be reflashed??
Or does anyone know a way of using the orangemms service on an O2 phone with an orange sim in it?

Add a new server in the mms configuration and call it orange.
Make sure it has these settings
Orange MMS settings
Access Point Name: orangemms
Gateway IP (proxy) address: 192.168.224.10
Port: 9201 (some users have reported 8080 works if 9201 doesn't)

And make sure connect via = INTERNET often wrong

Tried that and still cant send

connect via = internet
Just seems to connect via Orange GRPS
and if I try and set up one in the section : Settings/Connection / My work network and choose
select a modem: cellular line ( gprs)
access point name: orangemms
and leave rest blank
and select use server assigned ip address
This is what orange told me to do
It doesn't work either.
They siad its probably because I'm using an branded O2 phone ( even though its unlocked ) that I can't do the mms stuff ????
Thanks for help and contributions so far
text and internet work fine - just inabilty to receive or send mms

Have orange set up your account to send and receive mms?

Well if I put sim into my samsung d900 - i can send and receive pics ok.
They get sent ok - and if someone sends me a p[icture it just arrives with a text
( I don't have to download it or anything )
And on the O2 mini s I can do everything but send mms - ( text, calls, internet, wireless, gprs all work ok )
If I send a picture to mini s from another phone - I get text notification but it is unable to download it.
A friend has same O2 mini S on Orange network with same problem. A guy in Orange shop told him it is something to do with the ROM being made for O2 ??
I'm intersted to see if anyone in UK is using an O2 mini s on the Orange network and are able to send receive mms??

Help with MMS on Trinity (Vodafone UK)?

Hi there,
I've recently switched to a Trinity after my uninsured Touch Pro got stolen, and having problems with MMS. I'm on Vodafone UK, and my settings are:
Server Name: Contract MMS
Gateway: 212.183.137.012
Port number: 8799
Server address: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/
Connect via: The Internet
Sending size limitation: 300K
WAP version: WAP 2.0
The phone actually receives the message headers (although seemingly sometimes not until a few days after they are sent), so I can see that I have received an MMS, who it's from and the subject, but the content just won't download. Also if I reject it it just keeps on coming back, as does also if I delete it.
Any help would be much appreciated

Download the HTC Network Wizard

Hi there,
maybe you should download the HTC Network wizard and select the UK Vodafone option. After a soft reset it will reinstall the SMS/MMS settings for vodafone. It's worth a try and at least you'll have a handy tool if you travel in Europe and want to change sim cards. Best of luck.
Derek.
