GPRS settings for T-Mobile NL??

I downloaded the T-Mobile (NL) application for PPC2002 ("T-Mobile GPRS Connect") which should take care of the GPRS connections, but it does not work. It keeps complaining about not able to open the modem connection (I'm using the Cellular Line modem): "Can not find the name of the serial port".
Anybody any ideas?
It is a nice utility which displays the speed, send/received bytes and connection time, but useless sofar...

hey marco,
i bought a t-mobile pocket pc in the US and unlocked it. With my vodafone sim i now can do everythinh with the device. So I know how to make a GPRS connection to Vodafone, but don't know the settings for t-mobile.
A few days ago I also tried to install t-mobile app. but it sucks. I suggest you try to find out the correct settings with t-mobile nl to make a descent GPRS setting and not use the t-mobile application

Any one here in Singapore. I have a XDA II which i have upgraded to 1.60.00WWE from T-Mobile. Now I am trying to connect to the local Telco's GPRS network but the configuration help online is different from what is on my device. Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

for the gprs to work , one can self config.

MDA not working on O2...........Please help!!

Hi there,
I have just bought an unlocked MDA compact but can't get it to work on O2!
The MDA that I have seems to be unlocked as I have it on Orange at the moment, but, when I put my O2 SIM card in it just says that there is no service!
I have Network selection set to automatic, but when I select "Set Networks" it says that its unable to read settings from the network.
I have searched for networks with the Orange SIM and it finds O2 and Vodafone, but wont let me connect. I guess thats an Orange thing, but it does tell me that the phone can recieve on the other frequency
Can anyone help me?
Cheers,
Evan

XDA Exec in Japan

Hi,
I hope someone can help
Just bought a XDA Exec so that can use it in japan to replace my M1000 which is a A1000 in disgise
At the moment I'm using DoCoMo but I'm getting some strange problems the phone takes ages to lock to the signal and sometimes wouldn't ring
I can't seem to get the internet to work with my M1000 setting
The only other 3G network is Vodaphone so i'm wondering if it would be any better than DoCoMo service and if anyone has managed to get the internet work on any one of these networks
Thanks

Hi, Tokyorob
I think DoCoMo is no suitable and improper for using Exec.
The standard of the cellular phone base stations are different between DoCoMo and others .
DoCoMo's base station named Release99, and the World standard one named Release4.
DoCoMo has also R4 station, but they are only 30 percent of all its stations, and 70 percent are R99.
All devices of DoCoMo are built as Suitable for R99 and R4 both.
M1000 is also that.
But HTC Universal is suitable only for R4.
That's why your Exec can not catch the wave of DoCoMo.
You'd better getting Vodafone USIM.
Regards

Thanks Shamilsh,
That's explains the drop outs
I did try out the Vodafone USIM and found it locked on faster but I still can't get the packet transfer to work
any ideas ?

Can I ask you something?
Hello Guys,
I dont mean to look silly but, as far as I know Japan networks are not GSM, they operate on CDMA, or am I mistaken?!
Thank you & have a great day all.

Tokyorob
You have two means to connect internet with your Exec.
One is UMTS Network of Vodafone KK.
Just you can set DialUp with your Exec setting Utility.
Select a modem: Callular Line(GPRS,3G)
Access Point Name: vodafone
User Name: [email protected]
Password: vodafone
And another is using bluetooth modem like as M1000.
Setting is same as M1000's one.
Regards

Thanks Shamilsh
Tried the config with my friends USIM and it worked..
What pricing package are you on ?
I was looking at the Dual Packet Flat-rate but told by my friend that it doesn't cover everything
Vodafone are less than helpful on the matter
Basically I want to be able to :-
Have the 3G connection on all the time
surf the web
run pocket msn/messager
do you think that will be covered ?
Thanks
Rob

Hi Rob
to use internet, you need to contract package "Happy Packet Super Plan"
or "Data Value Pack Plan".
But on "Data Value Pack", you can not make voice call.
with "Dual Packet Flat Plan", you will not be able to use MSN Meesenger nor E-mail nor Skype, because it is not real internet but it is WAP.
Very sorry but our situation around Mobile is very Inconvenience and non-flexible.

Shamilsh,
Many thanks
contracted to the "Happy Packet Super Plan" going to see what my monthly bill is going to be ..

Help - Dopod 838 pro won't connect to T-Mobile

So I brought my unlocked Dopod 838 pro over from asia and am trying to use it with my T-Mobile sim here in California. However, I get this error notification:
Your current operator (31026) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor. Would you like to select another network?
It would then connect to Cingular as roaming which works fine for calls and messages. However, I cannot connect to my T-mobile internet plan while on the Cingular network.
I've been playing around with it for days and tried unsuccessfully to have it manually connect to T-Mobile. Do you think I need a ROM update or some kind of software update? If anyone has seen this issue and can provide some information it would be of great help. Thanks.

I got this exact same message on my Softbank X01 - however i ignored it, and my phone registered with T-Mobile without any problem. It seems to be connected to the new Network Wizard tool, under Settings - which only lists asia-pac countries for service.
However, if you go up to the Phone Service bar at the top, and enter the Settings section, the Network Tab seems to let you manually scan and select networks. It takes several minutes for the scan to complete, but when it does it gave me a choice of networks.
as always, ymmv,
