Hi I purchased my Imate K-Jam G4 in the UK sim free and brought it to the Cayman Islands. I do not appear to have any GPRS or edge ability. My service opertaor supports both they tried to send me the settings but came back with handset not supported.
I am running the latest imate ROM and have hard reset a couple of times to now avail. When i click on the internet all i get is cannot connect with current settings. i have tried both types of authentication.
Can anyone help me?
Is it anything to do with the CID lock which reports 001?
Thanks any help will be appreciated
Update:
Ok i have now managed to get it to connect by creating a new connection.However although it shows connected i get no data. can't even open google. any ideas?
Ok now got it working. my sim was not enabled for gprs put it in my wifes phone which had a text with the service provider settings saved them and then put the sim back in my phone. all now works. However seems to cost a small fortune so looks like i am going to disable it again. :-(

I`m using O2 eec also my sim card when in a different phone connects to gprs to different sites.
In the end my service provider has asked me to give a hard reset to my phone Pls help asap.

Hi, all -
I'm hoping for a bit of help - came off a flight yesterday, switched flight mode off and... tick tock... the phone has been searching for the network ever since.
I'm not able to access the phone options either from the keypad screen or from the settings folder. I've hard reset the phone, soft reset it, searched the web for an answer or two - no luck.
It's an O2 version Exec, running their latest rom on a corp install. I've not installed any new progs recently and the sim card works fine on a separate phone.
Any suggestions?

I have exactly the same problem...
I saw the little antenna on my screen but not with signal strength bars, but with dots, and said on double click, searching for network.
A friend told me that it is my SIM card problem. So I went to TIM stores, and they gave me a new one SIM 128K, with my number.
I put it in my qtek, and ......... voila. It worked.
But only for 4 hours. After that I didn't get any signal.
I must say that this problem came 3 days after my upgrade of firmware with the new one O2 Xda_Exec_Upgrade_v1.30.162.
Now I can't install any Radio firmware, as it says ERROR UPGRADING RADIO ROM.
I don't know what to do.
Is anyone out there that can help us????
Guys
Firstly this is my first PDA so bear with me
I have just got a O2 XDA Atom
I have a prepaid Vodaphone sim which i use
I connected them up and got onto vodaphone to get it setup for GPRS
After an hour or so on the phone, we can seem to connect to them via GPRS but it will not load any web pages. They then informed me that the phone doesnt supposed WAP and so i cannot use it with there GPRS?
Is this true ? what are my options ? Its a lot of money to spend so i can use excel etc
Thanks for any help

Can anyone help me?
ive had the same problem with vodafone, have you tried a diffrent sim card in it? with mine think theres something up with my sim because any other vodafone sim works fine!
I am in a different country but I have had this problem with my local vodafone before. The sales people know nothing about gprs and other data services. I have been very clear to them an stated what I want to use a service for and after being assured everything is fine still nothing works. In the end for me the solution with vodafone was to move to a billed account. After that (and a phone call to activate it) all wap and gprs worked fine.
I recently bought a MDA Vario II off Ebay, works great, when I got it I unlocked it and hard reset then clicked cancel so none of the Tmobile **** is installed. This is a wm5 phone on o2 pay and go.
The problem I am having is I cant use gprs, wap or use mms's.
Ive tried using all these sites (plus more) to no avail:

Ive tried installing the o2 cabs that you can find through the last link, none work. Ive checked, and double checked all settings for getting wap but it doesn't work. I cant receive email or go online.
One annoying thing, when I go into my messages folder and click on menu there is nothing I can click on to add mms settings! Argh!!
Has anyone experienced this before or know how to fix it? Recon upgrading to a cooked wm6 rom might bring it back, or a hard reset and installing the tmobile crap will work?
Cheers, T
There's a whole load of CABs for Operator settings on the Wiki - see here - scroll down to the O2 cab in the UK section.
Now, what I'm not sure of is whether the settings for PAYG are different to those for contract phones; however, given your lack of success so far, it won't hurt to try
EDIT: Read posts 1 & 6 (specifically) in this post for a load more info re: O2 PAYG settings
Hope this helps,
Mark.
Id tried the first one already, second one was new to me.
I installed it and nothing worked, so I changed the settings to pay and go, still doesn't work. The option for using MMS's hasn't even appeared!
I'm actually getting ****ing fed up with o2 now
I even read that they wont allow mobile internet fully... thats bull!
If anyone has any other suggestions that would great, otherwise Im gonna switch providers. Probably to 3 or t-mobile.
oops, double post
Try the attached cab, install it, soft reset, then you should get a 'connection setup' option in the connections control panel.
It should detect your carrier and automatically set everything up
Installed and it seems to have installed everything for contact o2. I tried changing all the settings it did to payandgo but when I try and access the web, ie, google.co.uk it displays that it is connected but internet explorer has a pop up that says 'the page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost'.
But when I try and access wsp://wap.o2.co.uk I get an error from the 'G' symbol at the top saying 'cannot connect for an unknown reason'.
I have checked and double checked the settings and nothing is working :/ still no option for MMS either :/
Think I will try and hard reset and reinstall all the t-mobile ****e... see what happens.
Haha! Got it working!
I did a hard reset and let it install all the t-mobile ****e. Then changed all the t-mobile internet settings to o2 ones and it works!
****ing strange considering its the exact same settings I had used a hundred times before. The t-mobile rom must have a registry setting or something.
The MMS options have even appeared now, should just have to tweak the settings to get it working!
Cheers for the help anyway guys!
Greetings,
I'm desperate as I am writing this.
I have blackstone, that I just purchased 2 months ago.
Everything went well with it, I had no issues at all. Suddendly it just stopped connecting to the Internet using the mobile connection.
I can receive/send calls and SMS without problems, I can connect using WiFi or Bluetooth (sharing my Computer's connection) but it doesn't connect using EvDO (unfortunatelly, the country where I live and the Service Provider, has a different band for 3G so I can't use since the beginning).
I have not modified anything in my phone (haven't installed any applications recently). I called my Service Provider, they checked that my account settings were correct and that my data plan was active. Also, I put my SIM card in my wife's phone (a Blackberry Bold) and it connected and browsed the Internet flawlessly.
So, any help please? I don't know what else to do, I have even done a hard reset, by just formatting the phone to its initial configuration state and started from the beginning, but no results!
did you change your sim
did u get this phone on contract.i got a x7510 it was only launched on contract by o2 network.i used an o2 pay and go sim but it wouldnt connect even though the pda was launched by them then they told me there setting are different to contract .so they gave me a different setting similar to another model then it worked.
I acquired this phone in Amazon. I purchased it unlocked.
I live in Uruguay, and I have had my connection working normally as for 2 months now. It suddendly stopped working without any advice.
My service provider (Movistar) has told me my account is fine. But I don't think it can happen that the phone has got broken and now I can make calls, send SMS but not connect to Internet. It doesn't make any sense to just break the connectivity.
IMHO you can do two things. Usually a user 'thinks' that nothing was changed on his PDA or computer however something was indeed changed. You can change this by backing up all your data and doing a factory reset to yr pda.
If this doesnot help then ... I suggest you change provider because this is the second case that has happened; i.e. they did a change internally but never said they did ;-)

Have you tried another Sim in your phone? Since you say your Sim is working in your wifes phone. Narrows it down to network or handset then.
