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

Hi, I'm a relatively experienced xda2 user. I have vodafone internet working fine but not MMS.
I have (I Think) the correct settings for WAP and MMS and when I send, it connects to the vodafone wap connection and the icon appears in the notification area for sending the mms but it never goes.Also, a reveived mms will not be downloaded to the xda2, just an sms appears to tell me to log on to the vodafone website to see it.
Also, I cannot browse wap wites in IE or special wap browsers.
Vodafone customer care tell me it's all set up their end for my old phone (RAZR V3) and that they have no settings for xda and therefore it may never work. They say every specific phone needs specific settings on their end for mms to work.
Has ANYONE got MMS working in Ireland for Vodafone on XDA2. If so, what are your exact settings and what phone does Vodafone think you are using? (maybe some settings on their end work for XDA).
THANKS!!!
Never mind
Got it working.

cheers

Hi - I've seen some posts that kind of address this topic but nothing yet that can solve the problem I'm experiencing (I think!).
I've set my O2 Exec up with what I'm confident are the Vodafone UK WAP APN and MMS server settings. However, when I send a message it tries for the standard 3 attempts and then gives up, saying the message couldn't be sent and that it would remain in my outbox. However, all 3 of the messages are actually successfully delivered! I am unable to download any 'received' MMS sent to me, although I do receive the notifications.
Has anybody else experienced this and, if so, I'd appreciate any advice in solving it.
The WAP APN I'm using is wap.vodafone.co.uk without the proxy setting enabled (as this is specified in the MMS settings). The MMS server is http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms, gateway is 212.183.137.12 with a port number of 8799. Size is limited to 100K, using WAP 2.0.
Thanks for any assistance.

I've got exactly the same problem. I rang vodafone and told them I had a V1640 and ask them to send me the settings, but she couldn't do it for some reason. She told me to go down to the vodafone shop and ask them to program the settings in manually. I haven't done this because I reckon that I will know more than them about the phone.
My O2 ROM has the settings for 02's connections, therefore, the only thing I can think of doing now is to somehow obtain a copy of the V1640 ROM and install it and hope the settings will be inherant with the installation.
Had a quick look aroung the net without any success.

I'm going from memory a little, but before i upgraded to my Orange SPV M5000, I upgraded my O2 XDAII from PPC2003 (not SE) to a WM2005 ROM, working on a Vodafone PAYT SIM.
I used the attached file to configure all the necessary Vodafone settings (btw, this is UK PAYT)... just copy to your device and run the CAB. I don't recall any problems runnings this, irrespective of any manual settings i'd set.
I also recall having to phone Vodafone to ask them to ensure my GPRS was enabled as this affects MMS sending. Vodafone seemed to be happy to automatically switch it off for me every few months!
Hope this helps
Hi, I recently moved to orange payg on my wizard and have got the data service working perfectly so i can browse the internet. I cannot however get picture messaging working. Ive seen the posts around the board detailing the procedure on wm2003 but im having trouble translating the information into wm5 tried a few different settings but no joy so far.
Can anyone that has mms working on wm5 / wizard for a uk payg orange sim please let me know all their settings.
Many thanks,
Kevin.
anyone ?? this is really doing my nut in !!
I'm using an unlocked vario with these settings and they work perfectly.
thank you for the reply. I just got it working however... called orange and they had 'forgotten' to enable it. Gave me 30 free pic messages so i guess its all ok in the end.
cheers.

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
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.
