have bought an exec to use with my 3 sim on three network , has anyone any sites that have the 3g gprs settings etc mms files etc to set it up as three customer services just laugh and say, ooo we dont sell that fone , dont know good luck.....
any help would be great
thanks
I don't think that phone can work on 3 network. I think it is of an complete different 'frequency'. Can you make/receive phone calls using the 3 sim?
yes, calls work etc not tried a video call as yet but i know lots of fones dont work at all with the 3 sim but the exec does
Same here
I have been using O2 XDA Exec on 3UK. Same problem can not set up the GPRS or the MMS.

You can input all the settings, but I can't seem to be able to access the 3 portal.
In settings, connections tab, connections
advanced tab, select networks
new, and input the relevant info from here:
Data accounts: Create one called 3 GPRS.
APN: three.co.uk
Username:
Password:
Login request: Off
Allow calls: Automatic
IP address:
DNS address:
Authentication: Normal
Data compression: Off
Header compression: Off
MMS settings can be entered via outlook menu
gateway: http://mms.um.three.co.uk:10021/mmsc
proxy: 217.171.192.2
port: 8799
(account is the 3UK avvount above)
Not sure if u need to input the Video gateway.
If anyone know how to actually open the portal, plz help,
I think the problem is that the page detects what device you are using, and an exec is not on their list.
My A1000 uses Opera so it cant be that much different...
Thanx Aristotle
3GRPS seems to work ok, considering that on EXEC it will not display any service pages still but does connect to 3.
Though the MMS settings are not working. I am not able to download my MMS messages and send either any suggestions.
Thankyou in advance
In Australia, so for we have got the Universal to connect to planet3, 3G for internet access, and video calling. We still have not managed to get it working for mms, and video streaming.

Oh that's good, is there anything special you need to do to access planet 3? because I can connect, but can't load any pages.
I guess the video streaming is to do with the hutchkey plugin(???)
Aristotle, you're in the UK, and it's all firewalled on 3, so I wouldn't get my hopes up. I know things are different in Australia (from the 3g forum).
That's why I left for t-mob: the irony is that the network that claims to be the most hi-tech is in fact the most low-tech of them all. On t-mob web and walk pro and the exec, you get full internet access (no restrictions), with infinite bandwith. That means during the day I remote-desktop to my home machine over 3G, then when I go home it switches calls to skype (I turn gprs off and wifi on), never worrrying about the bills. Try doing that on 3. :-/
lol.....well in australia we only really have one option for 3G at this stage, and thats 3.
walk into an optus store here asking about 3G, and if your lucky they know what your talking about, and at best they might be able to tell you that the broachers are coming.
Vodafone here, well not bad, but ask them anything outside what there trained to know and you might as well be talking egyptian.
telstra....lol....almost as bad as optus.....
Give us another 3 yrs....

Yeah, I know, thanks =/ it would be nice to see the F1 news and footie scores whilst on the train...
Used to be on T-mobile but it's reception was (and still is) awful where I live, drops more calls than 3.
Yep, wouldnt it be great to have a program that would have all the F1 details for the season and also sync options to get all the latest news, minute by minute race and qualifing updates....mmm....sounds very viable

Hi guys,
Im also having a similar dillema to you guys.
Bought an SPV M5000 from ebay and unlocked with buzz's tool, but now using my 3 sim card I cant send any sms, or send/recieve any mms.
Im thinking I may just sell the phone on, wait until my contract expires, and get a new one on a proper contract with orange or O2 becuase im addicted to txting and its getting a bit annoying constantly swapping my sim into my A1000.
Thanx

no offence, but...
universal is a 3g compatible phone - it will work with 3, vodafone 3, Australia 3, etc - it is designed to do that.
secondly - use the http://mobile.three.co.uk/hb/7600/HutchKey as access to the portal - just make it your homepage. this one is for nokia, it works with me.
re sms - check the sms centre!!! thats all you have to do - call the support and they will give you the number.
confused
sorry to seem really thick ( I probably am), but where is the setting to change sms centre number on the unversal. Ive been through all settings and cant find it. I dont remember changing this on my A1000 when I flashed it with the non 3 Uk F/W
I've been told about this 3 network not compatible with any other phones except the phones that cames together with the package. I wonder why is it so? I mean, others are trying to lock the phone, so that it can't be used with other network. But locking the network to a certain phone doesn't make any business sense.
However, I've recently had a look on my friend's 3 network phone. And it seems that the phone main screen is flashing advertisements constantly. And, as far as I know, this 3 network is the cheapest to maintain so far, that's why many seems to be using it.
So, my current conclusion is that, they need a phone that has the ability for them to flash advertisements, if not, they won't let you have the cheap network rate without the ability for them to flash advert.

Hi igs, I can access some pages on planet 3, but not others, if I try for example the link you give for nokias, I get an error message (see below, sorry for the small image, can't find the right screenshot programme)
However, I can access some pages, e.g. checking my balance (see below), by typing the link. and if I click on the links from there, I can open some pages but not others.
These are my settings
I have APN: three.co.uk
Username password and domain are blank
Use server assigned IP address in TCP/IP and Servers
And nothing checked for proxy settings
Any ideas? Could it be that you have some plugin that I don't? Thanks....
Also ai118, I didnt need to specify a sms centre, it did it automatically...

I think that might be a 6280, you can turn those 'adverts' off
Hi Folks, First post on here so bare with me. I have managed to unlock my phone which is great thanks to help on this forum. I have a vodafone PAYT Sim which I am trying to get GPRS working. I have scoured around to no avail. I have seen several posts on other sites as well. It seems the APN is pp.vodafone.co.uk and wap as username and password, this just isn't working on my phone I have also tried wap.vodafone.co.uk as well and a number of combinations I keep getting the error message 'No modem available at this number' or words to that effect? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers
Steve
you must be very wealthy as i was on voda payt and it used to cost £1 to load 1 webpage :?
you can get voda to txt you the settings off their website if you need them but I'd recommend you use a different price plan tbh
hi dmonik, ive tried with the guys at vodafone to not much avail, i am going to change network to easymobile they seem to have ok rates. Can someone point me to a beginners guide to these things. I want to learn about ROMs and how to get the most from my phone?
Steve
@steve43- for Vodafone PAYT- apn is pp.vodafone.co.uk , username is wap , password is wap. DNS 213.183.137.012 :wink:
Got my HTC TyTN(Hermes-Titan) in China and was using it with great satisfaction for a couple of months. With great satisfaction when landed in Germany, I could still automatically get all my emails and cals without making any adjustment using GPRS and UMTS. Once landed in Spain with strong disapointment and then I have not been able to connect anymore in any of the networks available. Aparently I could not swith from the UMTS2100 to GSM1900(which is used in Spain). The HTC Technical support team there proposed to change the mother board ... may some one know an other way to solve the problem? May an update of ROM work?
Help, Help with China Mobile GPRS settings/Setup
Hi,
I have the Hermes (Softbank Hermes 200 bought in HK with latest QTek South Africa ROM on it - for WWE usage) but I can't seem to figure how to connect to local GPRS to use internet or get email, etc.
It's driving me nuts! I've tried many combos And I'm pretty computer literate too.
Evidently I have all the information I need, maybe, but I can't seem to get the settings right. I've scoured the web and read a couple of moderately useful (but not 100% applicable) posts on outlining the process but I still can't make it happen.
Is there anyone who has successfully set up their Hermes with the China Mobile GPRS settings? Please pass on your knowledge to me.
For background, I have a local Shanghai SIM chip with GPRS function enabled by the central China Mobile authorities, whoever they may be. I'm on a pay-as-you-go service.
The settings (as sent to me from China mobile) are supposed to be:
APN: cmwap
IP: 010.000.000.172
Port: 9201
Domain(?): http://wap.monternet.com
They said no PW or user needed, but some sites list "WAP" for both.
I understand there are also dial-up options but I've had no success either.
The closest I've come is to make the network appear to connect (a timer counts connection time) but when I try to pull up a webpage it doesn't load and says the connect was lost.
I also don't know which PAP/CHAP setting to use and my phone does not have a convenient "Network Wizard" app.
Thanks in advance for your kindness. And thank you to the moderators for this great site. I've learned a wealth of information about my phone and even upgraded the ROM.

hi there,
i've not been able to use the gprs/mobile internet with my new tytn11. i use aljawal service in saudi arabia, i have contacted them-they say they have no support or settings for htc, i also contacted cellucom where i purchased the phone and they are of no help. there must be a way around this, i know the proxy server address so, why won;t it work? can someone plz help me?
thanks alot
anne
p.,s. i once saw (forgot where now) on your site, someone sent configuration settings gprs for mobiley in ksa, therefore i had hope tht he or someone else can help me with aljawal/tytn11
Hi annyksa,
Im not an owner of a TyTNII (yet) but this might be of some help. I have a i-mate Jamin and have been using aljawal's gprs service for awhile now. Around Febuary this year it stopped working, I could connect to the gprs but not to the internet. I use the manual settings to set up my gprs, seeing aljawal does not support auto setup for HTC. It took me 2 months and countless hard resets to find what settings would work. I turned off the proxy (proxy.jawalnet.com.sa) and changed the gprs authentication from Pap to Chap. so even if aljawal had setup instructions for the TyTnII, it would probably be wrong. Good luck and let me know if you get it working, im not going to upgrade from my Jamin to a TytnII with no gprs
You may try this .....it may work
