Quick newbie question (GPRS setting o2-uk)

Hi,
Sorry for this is a newbie question...
Should the GPRS settings be installed if I do a non-corperate install?
Mine arnt, and using settings from the web doesnt seem to work. I have used GPRS on my other phone with this sim card, so its data enables. If I put an Orange sim card in the Mini s I can use Oranges` GPRS settings no problem. *But i would really like to stay with o2)
If anyone has a fool-proof step by step guide I would be greatful to see it.
ANY help at all would be greatfully recived!!!
Thanks, Paul
PS I have searched this great forum, but couldnt find anything with an answer.

GPRS
are you sure you have the GPRS connection settings on the phone?
the way to check is go to
START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS->ADVANCED->SELECT NETWORKS
here you will see what connection is being used and what other connection are available to be used. if the O2 settings are not there you can add them manually.
add the settings from here:

hope this helps.

Hi, Thanks for the sppedy reply.
If i go...
I have just re-installed to a basic setup
START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS->ADVANCED->SELECT NETWORKS
the option in the drop box is My ISP or I can choose M Work Network, should o2 mobile web be in here too?
If i go
START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS>MANAGE EXISTIN CONNECTIONS>(this brings you to the My ISP page) i have Name as "Mobile Web" and Number as mobile.o2.co.uk.
If I then edit, the name for the connection is "Mobile Web" with modem as "Cellular line (GPRS) Next>Access pont name is "mobile.o2.co.uk" NEXT> user name "O2web", password is ****************.
Tap ADVANCE>the TCP/IP tab is using server assigned IP address, TAP ON SERVERS TAB>USE SPECIFIC SERVER ADDRESS (DNS 193.113.200.200, alt DNS is 193.113.200.201). Tap OK> FINISH
If i try to connect to the net to look at google (or any other page) the large square G turns smaller with the 2 arrows and I get:
Cannot connect
Dialed mobile.o2.co.uk
Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check and change settings BLAH BLAH BLAH....
All help appriciated!!!
Thanks, Paul.

ooops!!!
double post

START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS->ADVANCED->SELECT NETWORKS select my isp here
START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS>MANAGE EXISTIN CONNECTIONS
settings should be
acces point : mobile.o2.co.uk
username : mobileweb
password : password
don't bother to enter dns settings as your phone will pick them up

Hi, after (another) install these are my settings...
START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS->ADVANCED->SELECT NETWORKS select my isp here
<<<these are exactly as you said>>>>
START->SETTINGS->CONNECTIONS->CONNCETIONS>MANAGE EXISTIN CONNECTIONS
settings should be
acces point : mobile.o2.co.uk <<<THIS WAS RIGHT>>>
username : mobileweb <<<THIS WAS O2Web>>>
password : password <This was blanked out ***** but i changed it to password)
Still no-go wouldnt connet with either settings
thanks for trying

Stupid question, I don't know the imate site at all - where can you find these settings, specifically Vodafone I'm looking for. I had a browse but couldn't see them.
Thanks,
John

Thanks Waiho.
I am now able to send MMS on my T-Mobile Vario phone with my o2 Sim.
Can I just highlight that should anyone need to do the MMS config part of your instructions. That they will also need to setup the GPRS WAP settings.
Thanks all. You peeps really are appreciated. This website has done what T-Mobile wanted to charge £15 and a 28 day wait, in 1/2 day (remember I am still learning).

I have them here.. If only I knew how to upload them to the FTP Server here.

Login
Login with the following details (both in small letters)
Download User
Username: XDA
Password: XDA
The user XDA can download from all folders.
The user XDA can see all folders
Upload User
Username: xdaupload
Password. XDA
The user xdaupload can upload in the upload section.
The user xdaupload can only see the upload section
ftp://xda:[email protected]/
To use FTP you can use IE or your fav ftp client, plenty of free ones out there on google, let us know when you have uploaded them. Oh, and name them well & add a txt file saying what they are, where they came from etc.

Many Thanks..

Thanks a lot for the settings, I'll give them a shot later.
Are there any restrictions on incoming message sizes on Vodafone?
I thought it was my P900 that was at fault, it would get to about 47% and then bomb out with an unknown error. But, it received a picture the other day fine, previously it received video messages ok but they were perhaps smaller than the ones I've been sent recently.
The Wizard doesn't have a progress bar but it seems to be doing the same thing, it seems to do nothing for a while then just comes up with an error. It seems to connect to GPRS ok, and remains connected afterwards so I assume the settings are fine.

UK O2 GPRS Pay as You Go Settings?

Hi,
I have tried fiddling around with various different O2 GPRS settings I found on the forums, but I can't seem to any of them to work.
GPRS used to work on my old Nokia fine, and I am using the same SIM card so GPRS should work with my new O2 XDA Mini S phone.
Only problem with the O2 XDA Mini S, is that when you use their GRPS setup program it has Contract selected and Pay as You go is greyed out and you can't select it.
Just wondering if anyone knows the correct settings that works with UK O2 Pay as You Go?
Thanks for any help!

Search under "o2 GPRS settings" and you shall find . . . . . .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279589&highlight=o2+gprs+settings
The Search function is there for a reason.

Using the first settings on that post I get this error message in Internet Explorer:
The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try and later.

The GPRS seems to be connected as you get the little G symbol with 2 arrows saying its connected.
The 2nd setting on that post gives me fails to connect to GPRS and I get the error message from the system saying:
Cannot Connect
Dialed: mobile.o2.co.uk
Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To checked your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings. If the problem continues, reset your device according to your manufacturer's documentation and try again.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The O2 site doesn't list the O2 XDA Mini S on http://www.o2.co.uk/services/ota4/select and their instructions are to use the O2 GRPS setup program which has Contract selected by default and Pay as You go is greyed out and you can't select it.
The contract settings that it installs by default gives the 2nd error message above.
I think I am pretty much out of ideas?

o2 gprs pay and go settings
The WAP connection uses a proxy server and must be configured under the 'My work network' settings as opposed to the 'My ISP'
Use the following:
Start>Settings>connections>connections
Under my work network select 'add a new modem'
Name - o2 payandgo
Select a modem - Cellular line (GPRS)
Access Point - payandgo.o2.co.uk
Username - payandgo
Password - password
Domain - blank
Hit advanced
Select TCP/IP - Use server assigned IP address
Servers - Use server assigned address
Hit OK and then Finish
Under 'my work network' select 'set up my Proxy'
Tick - This network connects to the internet
Tick - This connection uses a proxy . . .
Hit Advanced
Tap on the WAP field and enter 193.113.200.195 and ensure that the port is set to 9201
OK out of the settings.
Launch the PIE and use the prefix wsp:// to point the browser at the WAP network. Use wap.google.co.uk to test.
** I forgot to point out that you cannot use mobile.o2.co.uk as you have a prepay sim! **

Managed to get it working by kinda merging your settings and the 2 other settings. Works for standard web browsing and WAP browsing, this is how I have got it setup

Can't get POP3 mail working with proxy

Greetings all, new user here with a TyTN issue.
I have a TyTN I am having trouble to send/receive POP3 mail while connected to Wi-Fi network with proxy server. I have searched web for solution but did not find anything specific, I hope someone can point me to the right direction here.
This issue only happens when I am connected to my work network. With my current setting I can browse web with IE but not send/receive POP3 mail. I receive following error message "Messages can not be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again.".
My wireless network configuration are
all default except "Connects to:", which is set to Work instead of The Internet.
My proxy settings are
"This network connects to the Internet" - checked
"This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet" - checked
Under Advanced, HTTP proxy's port changed to 8080, Socks proxy port changed to 8080 with sock 5 selected, WAP and Secure WAP were left blank.
My IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible Wi-Fi Adapter settings are
"Use server-assigned IP address"
I have tested my TyTN in free Wi-Fi lounges where proxy isn't needed, I didn't have any problem send/receive e-mail. I have also tested send/receive e-mail via GPRS, that worked fine too. Discussing this issue with our IT department, they suggested to change setting under IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible Wi-Fi adapter to "Use specific IP address" and uncheck use proxy server setting under Network setup. I was able to send/receive e-mail when applying the above 2 changes to bypass proxy server. My question now is can I setup mail to work with proxy server instead of change network settings to bypass proxy server? Any help'd be greatly appreciated, thanks.

insert proxy manually

i have to insert manually every time my proxy on the niki to use the active sync. when i disconnect and reconnect the phone there is no more proxy and i receive an error from active sync untill i insert the proxy manually. has someone else the same problem... is there a solution??

Hi,
Under Connections -> Configure Proxy Server -> Proxy Definition -> Advanced, there is a list of types of proxies that can be configured - HTTP, WAP, Secure WAP and Socks.
I need to use the HTTP proxy and it works fine but everytime I am done using the connection, I need to go back and reconfigure the proxy server settings !! Why does the server settings disappear ?? and where can I configure it such that it doest not vanish again !?
thanks

Cannot access Gmail through native email app

After setting up access to my Gmail account through the native email tool, when I do a send/receive, I get and error saying:
"Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings. etc..."
The only time I can do a successful send/receive is when my X1 is connected to my laptop - then I get all my emails. I have already appplied Windows Mobile 6.1 Hot Fix for Sending POP and IMAP E-mail.
I suspect some settings might be wrong - everything else is working fine. Am even getting 3G in SoCal using AT&T on MediatNet. My settings are as follows:
Access point name: wap.cingular
Domain: <blank>
Proxy Setting
Proxy Server: wireless.cingular.com
HTTP: wireless.cingular.com:80
WAP: <blank>
Secure WAP: <blank>
Socks: localhost:1080
Could anyone help? Thanks in advance.

almost certainly its because you are using a WAP connection.
I've never been able to use POP or SMTP on any phone through a WAP connection.
Try using the APN for cingular full internet
a quick google comes up with:-
APN: isp.cingular
User: [email protected]
Pass: CINGULAR1
but don't quote me, and you may need to check with cingular whether they need to change something their end to enable you to use that APN

Im pretty new to email on my phone but i had the same problem i.e. if i was on wireless i could get mail but if i connected via gprs i would get the same error, can not connect etc, i had to set up and new account with the same details as the account which would send and recieve via wirless and tell it to connect via t-mobile internet as there wasnt an auto option, so i now have two accounts for the same email one accesses via the internet and one via t-mobile internet, you can change this if you edit account setup.
Not sure if this is your problem or if i have read it wrong.
Hope this helps

Hi Masseur,
Thanks for the pointer. I did try but looks like it made no difference. Not sure what's wrong from my settings.
Anyone else has seen this? Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Folks,
Someone in another forum pointed me to the solution. As it turn out, gmail doesn't work off proxys with AT&T. The automatic setup for AT&T had the proxy checked. All was needed is to take out the proxy and just keep the http settings. Working now!
