For all of you who have had difficulty setting up GPRS and MMS for the Virgin network then the comprehensive instructions in the attached document should put you on the right track.
MMS Virgin
Thanks for your help. Its now all working
It was the bit in MMS Composer causing the problem
it was trying to use the wrong connection
Now works Great
Thanks Once Again
Best Regards
Cingular
I read the PDF on setting up with Virgin.
Any chance of getting a document on setting up with Cingular? I have a XDA IIs activated with Cingular and need help getting GPRS and MMS to work.
Cingular
Sorry but I don't think that I can help as I have no details for your network. More importantly, as I'm not a Cingular customer, I wouldn't be able to test that I was setting up and documenting the connections correctly. I was only able to produce this document because I'm on the Virgin network and it took a fair bit of trial and error to get the connections right.
Thanks a million
Unbelievably helpful - thanks! I too have been playing with the settings provided by Virgin, but the GPRS/MMS combination was proving tricky! Would you perhaps be willing to give this to Virgin for others to get easier access to (if they're interested) - they tried to help but in the end said 'we don't support your phone so you're on your own'...? Thanks again for a BRILLIANT help file. Keith.
Glad you found it useful.
I've sent a copy of the document to Virgin and they said they'd pass it on to the relevant department so that they can check it for correctness! It remains to be seen whether they'll actually use it officially or not.
Bump!
just bumping this as it's a really useful document!
does anyone know how we can create a CAB file from this?
Thanks
Just bought myself a "touch" and had a hell load of trouble getting gprs to work for Virgin. This actually got me up and running, thanks.
Thanks for the link just set up all my connections. It seems Virgin hasn;t taken up your offer of letting peeps know about your instructions.
Superb!
Virgin had no clue at all
I followed this, and bang - connected
1 note: If you get "could not connect for an unknown reason" just reset your phone
Thx for this
Just wondering if Virgin Network lets HTC Home Weather update over GPRS?
With O2 at moment, they don't! Home phone through Virgin so it could be cheaper.
Thanks
I have just set up my MDA Vario following your easy to use instructions, and I can now connect to the internet on Virgin (I have moved from T-Mobile). However, I cannot send an MMS message even though I have double checked the settings. Can you tell me if there is anything else that may need to be done, or have others had any similar problems?
great.....for the first time i could send/receive MMS

Clueless!!!
I have done all of this and keep getting the message gateway timeout
A big thanks for this post, it saved me a lot of grief, as mentioned earlier Virgin were worse than useless.
Newbie question
Thanks so much sbgorner - I'll show my ignorance here ! I have been able (when a signal is available) to connect via wifi which is, generally free. I have now, thanks to you, managed to set up a gprs connection (which costs via virgin) - I want to be sure that I ONLY use the gprs when i really have to - I've had a pretty good look but am not sure how I can tell which connection settings I'm using and how I can make sure the gprs is turned off when I don't want it. Thanks for your help. regards Roger
Hi me again - Happy new Year everybody. Another little problem - I can get on internet with these settings and RECEIVE emails but not SEND emails or MMS. Any suggestions much appreciated. Roger
Thank you

Email
Hi, first off, thanks for the PDF. Brilliant, both MMS & GPRS working now. Something Virgin were not very helpful about.
I am trying to set up my email which is an NTL account but keep getting a message saying that it can't connect.
Any ideas if it is possible to set up email with Virgin?
Thanks.

Try the Orange web site... I think they have a autoconfig thing or at least the info.

My name's Ivan and i have a cingular 8525 and here is my dilemma. about 2 weeks ago i unlocked it so it can be used with tmobile, however i dont know how to setup MMS & GPRS if anyone would be kind enough to help me out id really appreciate, if not..well its k too

use search in this networking forum only and
search for "tmobile AND gprs" or "tmobile AND mms"
there may even be cab files which does the setup automaticly
Im new to the Hermes scene. last night i decided to be a little adventurous and flashed shamanix grass 2.2 to my phone. I am enjoying the speed and memory with this new ROM but i am having one issue: when i try to connect to the internet via ATT 3G internet i keep getting the notification "Cannot Connect: The answering Modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings". I have no idea how to configure these settings to work with ATT's internet, so some help would be greatly appreciated.
welcome to xda-developers... There are several options available to you... you can go to AT&T's website and get the settings from there and add them to your device, or you can use the google link in my signature and search for wpbear's cingular settings cab file... it is a one step setup file that adds the medianet settings for you... It is posted all over this forum and I believe there is mention of it in the wiki...
Good Luck...
I installed the cab and i am now able to access the internet. but when i do connect there is an "H" in the top corner instead of 3G? i dont know if this is a big deal or not?
Looks like your connecting using HSDPA

Just flashed 6.5 on my phone 24 hours ago (thanks to a few of you on here) but can't get MMS to work. As a matter of fact, I don't even see it as an option in any of the menus. Is there anyone out there who has been able to install an external MMS pack with their 6.5 and get it to WORK? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
i am sorry, but the rules of this forum demand you search first, use forum search, use google, look it up in the wiki!
this exact same question came up on 04/02, 3 days ago. but anyway, i'm not here to give you a speech about that. let me explain it to you:
mms is more than just another mail account, it has complex settings and rules and you need to set up rules for sending and receiving that are not comparable to e-mail accounts. that is why, even if you knew all the settings for your carrier in your country, you would have no success in creating a new account. there is a program out there called arcsoft mms, (which i recommend you to use as a search phrase next time ) it is about 2mb, you can download it here: http://www.megaupload.com/pl/?d=DQEKP22D i haven't tested it myself, but the link is given in the wm6.5 21198 thread and the filename is sprintmms. you install the cab and this will create the account for you and make basic settings, you still have to set your country specific and carrier specific settings, which you can look up on your carriers site. if you can't find it, post again and i will look it up.
have fun with it
