orange mms

hey ive got orange gprs to work finnaly im still stuck with getting mms to work wondered if anyone is using the wizard on orange and has managed to get the mms settings to work. cab files dont seem to work and manual setting seem to just as useless all help is appriciated.

Have you tried these - reliable source
Data Bearer GPRS - connect via my isp
Access Point Node (APN) (server name) orangemms
User ID Orange
Password Multimedia
Port number 9201
IP Address (gateway) 192.168.224.10
MMS Message Server http://mms.orange.co.uk/

I cannot receive MMS fro Orange. I'm told by them that this is aproblem that they have had for some time and no answer is in sight.

Orange - they seem to employ people on work expreience !
Sometimes I wonder how Orange keep their customers. They have such a robust cellular system that seems to work even in caves and IMHO is the best network with the worst support and full of employees giving misinformation. If you hit a good technician then its OK but the telphone support staff must just read off computer terminals.
I have had MMS working on Orange since the Wizard came out.
1. Go to Comms
2. Go to Conections
3. Go to manage new connections under top group of settings ie not My Work Network
4. Click on new, then enter
Name for new Conection = anything you fancy
Select a modem = Cellular Line GPRS
Access point name = orangemms
User name = DO NOT PUT ANYTHING HERE
Password = DO NOT PUT ANYTHING HERE
and do not put anything anywhere else in these setup pages.
The auto switching does not seem to be reliable so I select my mms setting as above before using it. Then try sending an mms if it goes into an outbox try resending it from there. I think you have to persevere a few attempts but if you try the above it will work. I have a T-Mobile unlocked but with all original software and addins.
Hope this helps
Kindest regards

i got frustrated thinking mine didnt work. I find that if i have been connected to the orange world internet gprs, i cannot then send or receive mms until i soft reset. It then works every time never fails.

Having trouble connecting to Vodafone Live! (UK)

I signed up to Vodafone and got a 6230i wchich all work perfectly but I'm using the JAM as my main phone.
I've set everything up according to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12497&highlight=remove+mms+server
but can't connect to Vodafone Live!
Everything else works..TXT, SMS, Internet is all OK.
Any ideas please?

hi davehutch,
I'm using my magician with vodafone Live! NL
In the past i had the same problem as you. Calling customer services of vodafone turned out that you have to connect via a proxy server for wap protocol. In my case the proxy adress is 192.168.251.150.
Good luck

Thanks for the tip...but
I don't really understand the JAM connection settings, never have.
Where is this address entered? Is it under the My ISP or the My Work Network sections?

Under Settings -> connections -> connections there will probably be a setting vodafone live! or something like that.
tick "set up my proxy setting" and then turn on "This network connects to the internet" and "this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet.
when you tick advanced settings you can enter the proxy adress that the vpa should use. in my case that is:
WAP 192.168.251.150 PORT 9201
Secure WAP 192.168.251.150 PORT 9202
once you have entered the settings, go to the pocket internet explorer and go go wsp://live.vodafone.com
please keep in mind that the settings about work for vodafone NL. It is possible that Vodafone UK uses other settings.
Good luck

Thanks for the suggestion
No luck though. I have made progress though. Everything now works: txt, MMS, e-mail, Web, WAP and I even connect to Vodafone Live! but...I only get the text version.
i feel like I'm getting closer but may never actually get there.
Is the JAM WAP level compatible with the graphic version of Vodafone Live!?
thanks for your help so far

P3600 in USA, T-Mobile

Does anyone have any experiance in using P3600 in USA with T-Mobile? In particular, I am having hard time getting to Internet and receiving MMS messages.
Because of the specifics of the USA cell and PDA market, getting a PDA working with a service provider (if you don't buy it from the service provider itself) can be tough. I have set up my Trinity to connect to EDGE, it shows the "E" on the top of the bars, but it still has a hard time browsing the Internet. There is not much help offered on their website, so I was hoping may be someone has had an experience setting it for T-Mobile.
Any help would be appreciated.

you'll probably have to call T-Mobile and get their MMS and internet settings, or it might be somewhere on their website.

I have set it according to their instructions here: http://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm21625.htm?
That shows my phone connected to EDGE by I am still not able to access the Internet.

I've just spent a week in the USA with my Orange M700 - everything worked fine, probably gonna have some horrible roaming bills though as it's still on the original orange account

I'm in the US on T-Mobile, no problem with Internet. The only thing I had to do was enter the server address -- internet2.voicestream.com, and all works.
MMS has been a bit more trying. I do get inbound notifications of MMS coming in, but haven't played around with it enough to get it working. Then again, I don't use MMS so it hasn't been a pressing issue. I'll play with it tomorrow and see what I get.

dada21,
Connecting to internet2.voicestream.com helped! Thank you.
On T-Mobile website they were suggesting connecting to wap.voicestream.com and using a proxy server. But once I took out the proxy server and used the server you suggested it worked fine.
With the MMS messages- yes, I get only the inbound notifications too. Don't get the actual message.

Glad internet2 worked for you.
Getting MMS working was a *****. Here's what I did:
I set up a new connection under "Work" to wap.voicestream.com
Under Messaging, MMS, settings:
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 9201
Server address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Connect via: Work
Sending size limitation: 248K
WAP version: WAP 1.2
I received MMS perfectly but didn't test sending yet.
Let us know how it works for you.

need help connecting to T-mobile. proxy and APN is setup

I have the t-zones unlimited plan on my account. This worked on my SX66 but stopped working when I upgraded to a Hermes.
Here are my current settings
access point name: wap.voicestream.com
HTTP proxy: 216.155.165.050:8080
WAP proxy: 216.155.165.050:8080
It seems to connect to GPRS and I see the "E" symbol on my signal strength but all pages time out. I tired IE and opera browsers
Hmm changed 216.155.165.050 to 216.155.165.50 fixed it... go figure

think that normaly with ip's the 0's in front are never typed out
could be that newer wm roms dident mask out those zero's
and faild because of it

T-Mobile internet Cabs
I've had this problem for the last couple of months. I just found this in the main Networking Forum. It contains ROM specific to your data plan. Mine now works fine, so your's probably will too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311446

I just moved my SIM from a BA (WM5) to an 8525(WM6).. same internet settings, proxy, etc.. (T-Mobile Web) was working on the BA and now it just connects, and eventually times-out with the error 502 message. Tried radio roms 1.47, 1.48, 1.50, no difference. Moved the sim back into my BA and internet works still. What gives? I did look in the registry on the 8525 under tcpip and noticed the gateway address is the same as the assigned dhcp address. This shouldn't be. Using chaps 3.54b Lite ROM.. any ideas?

T-Mobile tech support did in fact verify that they were closing down the WAP apn. Are they capable of making these kind of changes without notifying customers? The reason I ask is they still have instructions posted on the web for configuring windows mobile phones for "Web browsing" using the wap apn and proxy.. as far as I'm concerned they have breached their contract for my paid services.. actually I'm not under contract and this might give me the reason to consider other providers.

UPDATE.. the Black X Beta 2 works with T-Mobile Web and proxy..

I´ll give it a try

I have had a similar problem but in my case I have a Wizard not a BA, I´ve tried all kind of tweaks for
HKLM\Comm\Cellular Line\Parms\Tcpip and
HKLM\Comm\Tcpip\Parms
The default parameters looks the same for the Wizard and the Hermes except that the Hermes shows WINS addresses and the Wizard doesn´t (Please see my signature and provide your data)

gprs connection for spv m3100

Hi
Apologies if this thread is dealt with elsewhere. Have an unlocked [unlocked from orange] SPV m3100 which is now happily using my virgin sim. I cannot get it to connect to the internet.
I have spoken to virgin who have given me the details of connections
e.g.
ip: 193.030.166.004
port: 8080
http://www.virgin.com/mobile/wap/
goto.virginmobile.uk
These have been entered in as new accounts on gprs,3g connections.
I have tried numerous combinations of new connections some with and some without proxy settings and now have about 3 different connections but it always throws me out saying to check my settings.
can anybody do a walk-through for me in case I am doing something innately stupid?

sorted
I eventually tried not putting the server specific IP address in and it worked wish I tried that before I posted my question
