Ireland 02 MMS settings please?

Would anyone be able to take the time to post here in detail the settings for O2 MMS in Ireland on a contract bill plan?
I was on to o2 support but it didn't work and got the impression the staff wasn't really up to 100% on the XDA - probably more used to regular cellphones.
I'd appreciate the help from someone with a working mms service on o2 contract.
Many thanks to all
Conor

you could try the o2 website,
there is a section in mms area (get the settings), which allows you to send yourself the appropriate settings via sms.
try it anyway and let us know how u get on.
I'm in the north so the settings may not be applicable for your region.
good luck anyway.

Thanks but no settings there
Cheers, but they only allow you to send the settings and install them automatically by sms. There's no option to send to an XDA - just Nokia etc...
Can someone just copy them down here from their o2 monthly contract XDA?
Thanks again
Conor

ok conor,
we'll give it a go then, what details do you need and I'lli try to supply them.

MMS blues...
Thanks David!
I'm not sure if N. Ireland settings are the same for Galway but sure, let's see!
For a start, does it connect via MMS Network, or GPRS or My ISP, or The Internet etc.?
I can't send at all. But I do receive notifications of a new mms and who it's from, but when I tap download it tries to download but gets stuck there forever without succeeding. Here's what I got from o2 support but it doesn't work.
Connect to server O2IE (the server name)
Gateway - 192.168.090.074
Server address http://mmsc.mms.o2.ie:8002 (I think!)
Thanks again!

MMS O2 Ireland
Hi Dan
Thanks for that - but I doubt the uk settings would work in Ireland.
O2 here tried to help so I guess I'm registered for these services.
GPRS works fine the prob is just MMS
Thanks again though!
If any Irish o2 pay monthly users could copy down their settings it might help.
Best regards to all
Conor

Conor,
sorry this took so long, got kinda busy elsewere.
have just looked and the connection was set on My Work Network,
I thought it was/should be, via the MMS network.
will have to try and see if it is still working.
the rest of the settings you gave matched mine except for the .ie replacing the .uk, and different gateway no's, this again could be a UK thing.
If I remember correctly I had some serious trouble at the beginning, I think it was something to do with the Rom version, when I upgraded it from 1.60, the MMS service started to function perfectly.

Rom?
Hi
My ROM is 1.60.00WWE
do you know if I'm up to date?
Cheers!
Conor

Hi Conor,
If you unlock your extended rom, there will be a couple of files relating to O2 customisation. It's made easier by using the horrible Active Today settings which can custimise your device for use in Ireland. I'm sure the settings are also made for the mms program. (sorry, I don't use it myself!)
As for the rom version, I think the lastest O2 rom is 1.66 which is available from their site, you could also go to version 1.72 which is available from this site. I'm at 1.72 and think it's fine.
Cheerio
Howard

Thanks Howard, David and all!
I'll try upgrading the RoM
very grateful indeed
Conor

Does the G1 work in Norway after unlocking?

Im in the US right now. Wondering about bying the phone. Worries me that it wont work with european 3G. Havent found one single statement that it actually work with european/norwegian 3G.
Please confirm if it have all its functions and run on norwegian 3G after unlocking it.
Best regards

Its should do because on the box of the uk version it lists all of the countries that it works in and im sure NO will mean norway?? Email HTC and double check tho?

It does work in Holland
I bought an unlocked G1 in the USA last week and it functions perfectly in the Netherlands. The only thing you need to do is find your country code and provider code. With these codes you add your APN.

hey!
I'm in spain and 3g work fine, you only need to know the APN from your carrier

No problem, I bought the phone off Ebay.
I'm using the G1 with a Hello simcard. (Telenor network)
Both 3G and Edge works perfect. (I usually disable 3G because of battery drain)
The only problem I have is MMS. At the moment there is from my knowledge not possible to have two different APNs. And Telenor do not have a single APN (that I know of) that support both MMS and internet profile. From what I read this should be solved soon. (Then we can have different APNs assigned to different functions such as MMS, Browser etc...)
The APN I use at the moment is:
Name: Telenor
ANP: internet
Username: dj
Password: dj
I've tried several other combinations with the MMS server, proxy etc... but never got it working.
FYI, I updated my phone (orig US RC28) with the modified TC5-RC8 update found here. Keeping root and getting rid of myfaves and the US number format in the dialer. So make sure the phone you buy is Pre RC30 and don't allow any pushed updates from google.
Løp og kjøp!

First of all, I've got to say that there is more Norwegian guys here than I'd expected. I am used to being the only Norwegian (and sometimes Scandinavian guy) on forums like this.

What about special characters? (æøå)

APN for Telenor - solved
I finally sorted the problem with mms on telenor network. (Norway)
Here is APN parameters i use:
name: Telenor
apn: telenor
username: dj
password: dj
mmsc: http://mmsc/
mms proxy: 10.10.10.11
mms port: 8080
mcc:242
mnc:01
Others not listed are <not set>
With this setup both sending and receiving mms works perfect, as well as normal data connection for browsing/mail etc...
Love the G1

You just hold down the corresponding character and you get what you need. Hold down A and you can use Å , O gives you Ø etc...so no problem.

I am having some problems with the æøå support.
Sometimes when I try to use æø or å it mark the entire text I've written, and when I move the cursor with the scrollwheel I am left with either 'a' or 'o' depending on which character I attempted to write.
It happens in the browser, and sometimes other apps as well.

I'm from Norway too
Have bought a G1 on eBay, and it should arrive in a week or so.
Anybody got the APN-settings for Netcom/Onecall?
Hilsen Østlendingen

Just create a new APN,
(name networknorway)
APN : internet
MCC 242
MNC 05
works like a charm on onecall just so you know =)

Thnx.
Wrote you a message on androidcommunity.com but never got an answer.
Now I have all the info I need though.
Looking forward to using the G1 =]

I live in Norway and want the G1
Hi!
Well, now that Google is offering the G1 for 399$, I might want to pick one up. However, I see that its not available in Norway, (although Sweden is one of the lucky). I am considering ordering it to the US or Canada then shipped to Norway.
This should work out fine, right?

Yes, but you'll want to make sure that you have an unlimited data plan, or you'll find your data usage to be high. By limiting your data usage, you'll completely miss the point of the G1, which is really great for internet-on-the-go, streaming videos and music, etc

Thanks for the tip! Ive been looking for an unlimited data plan in Norway for ages, but unfortunately, they are horribly expensive here in Norway for some reason! Makes me mad!

Just ordered.. 264$ for shipping to Canada! What a ripoff! Laughable, but oh well..

The phone works in Norway, no problem...
In regards to unlimited data plan, it's not a must - but still nice. My data traffic is about the same as my last phones. (nokia n82/ htc hermes setup with push mail etc...)
The wifi works great with the G1 and I usually use that when downloading off the market etc..
I do miss some good maps (auto routing) to go with the gps though...

How about Norwegian keys, such as æ, ø and å? How would I be able to use them on the hardware keyboard? Are they mapped to fn + [keys] somehow, or are they handled as special symbols, or what? I guess the G1 has no Norwegian regional settings, or anything?
Kind Regards

They are built in natively. Push and hold "a", then you'll get a list. It works for other key varients also.

I am using G1 and I am on Airtel Mumbai.
I have mobile office GPRS.
All I have done is entering APN as airtelgprs.com and all other values as blank and I have my GPRS.....

Couldn't this just have gone in the Big APN Thread?

Hey.... getting the MMS working was my challenge...
Internet just needs the airtelgprs.com APN.
I did not put this in the APN Big thread as there are many users searching for Airtel APN in India and if this becomes a part of a big thread then google would not be able to index it.

I had a though time finding the setting for Airtel India specially for MMS, so thought of creating a separate thread.

Hey your welcome...I had a tough time searching so thought of putting it up so others can get it easily.
Wanted to add one point to my post:
If you have added the APN for Airtelgprs.com and then after exiting the settings add the MMS it sometime wont work on G1. Delete all APN`s and then add both one after other.

Thanks a lot...These settings are useful for iPhone as well.

Hello all,
I've just returned from 3 weeks in India and I used my AirTel SIM card (Rajasthan-sourced) in Jaipur, Agra, Delhi, Cochin, Bangluru, Goa, Mumbai and on many trains.
It worked very well and had excellent coverage. Pretty cheap, too!
Had a devil of a time getting it all started though. Luckily I had a WM6.5 phone that allowed me to use SMS help since the 121 HelpLine was more than USELESS! (English tree prompts kept hanging up on me). Turned out the shop I bought the sim card from neglected to turn on GPRS...
WM6.5 and SMS menus and I had it going in a few minutes.
GPRS activation was the key...
All I put in for the APN was airtelgprs.com and just named it India!
Good luck all.

1)If you have email working now, then it will work whenever you have a data connection.
2)I'm guessing you're going to have to pay for data
3) What does GPS have to do with with EDGE? The google maps application will be able to download the map tiles on whatever connection you have, be it GPRS, EDGE or 3G.

ok thanks a lot..
eagerly waiting for my g1
3g has been just introduced here and data plans are sick vvv costly as of now..
3g n/w has not been alotted to private firms as yet..

Is there any possibility to revert it back without any h/w changes?
coz if i brick it here then it wd remain dead & i wont be able to ship back to usa..

Dont play with the Customs Roms without reading the steps.
Follow the steps do ur homework before u start playing the the ROMS

THANKS Mate! You posted these steps back in 2009. These are still helpful now in 2011 when many are using Android devices. Specially the MMS part.
I don't know how you figured out that but my respect for finding out.
On first attempt I simply edited the details and did not delete the APNs. But I had to completely follow the steps by deleting all APNs and so on. Finally it worked.
Also, your decision to create separate thread was right. I came thru Google lookin for "Airtel MMS Settings on Android".
Cheers

Telstra HTC HD2 with Vodafone Live

I have created this new thread as I have searched several days now trying to get vodafone live working on my telstra htc hd2 with no luck. I have contacted customer support on 1555 to send me the setting via sms but i never got it. I have also gone to the australian vodafone website to get the wap setting via sms but my screen just briefly lights up but doesn't show that any sms has been recieved hence i can't get the correct settings. I have also tried manual set up instructions on the vodafone web site but they do not work as well since it asks for passwords etc. I found a thread before talking about vodafone live on this website but it is based on the new zealand web site and assumes that you have got the correct vodafone wap setting etc which is what I cannot get no matter what I try.
Does anyone now how to get vodafone australia wap setting on the htc hd2 and hence get vodafone live working on the telstra htc hd2 handset. Instructions right from the very start would be really appreciated.

Sorry I cannot be of more assistance, but in case you don't hear anything in this thread, try posting in the T9193 thread in this forum (search button will help you find it.) Though, it's dominated by Americans importing the phone

Hi, I've had my hd2 working on vodafone (sim is now in my Desire) . Even with the telstra rom your apn settings should be automatically set when you insert the sim. If you don't have any luck then you might need to flash the rom (and rid it of the bloatware).
First you need to flash an older Telstra rom from shipped-roms.com (1.46). Then you will be able to use hard spl (hardspl.exe), then flash any rom and radio from this fine website. I personally like ozrom or artemis. These roms will automatically set your apn and work.
If you can't be stuffed and know where to update the settings:
apn... vfinternet.au
No username or password.
For vodafone.mms try
Apn…live.vodafone.com
Mmsc...http://pxt.vodafone.net.au/pxtsend
Mms proxy...10.202.2.60
Port. 8080
Mcc.. 505
Mnc.. 03
Apn type.. mms
Authentication .. not set
These are straight from my fone.
JJ

hi thanks for the reply, I do have the vodafone setting when I click start etc so i can recieve my credit in phone via sms etc but its just that I need some way to input the correct vodafone live settings into the phone. Surely this can be done without flashing the rom how else am I making calls etc from my vodafone sim card.

any mobile shops in sydney know how to flash the telstra model

New Motorola Droid Pro in Portugal :)

Hello guys,
Last week I have purchased on eBay what is for me the most awaited phone of all time . It was pretty expensive and I also had to pay another 120€ to the customs, but I don't regret it...
I am still getting used to the mobile & Android, but I would like to make 2 questions:
1- My 3g isn't working, GSM calls + SMS are working fine, but I cannot access any data, do I have to update any APN details ? (and how).
2- I am only offered two options regarding the phone language, En and Spanish, which is fine, but is there anyway I could add Portuguese as input language?
That's it for now, thanks in advance for any replies.

The thing is that when I browse Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Access point names, I don't have any listed and neither I have an option to add a new APN ...

Ok, I have downloaded an APP from the market called APN Portugal that auto configured the APN details of my carrier (Optimus). Now I would like to know if it is possible to add a phone language/new input languages (keyboard) ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
How did you unlock it? Has it been activated in the US with a Verizon plan before being shipped to Portugal?
Thanks
Fred

Yes, it was unlocked by the eBay seller using a code provided by Verizon.

@elmemyself: thanks for sharing your experience. Are you able to send/receive MMS in Portugal?

Hello fpont1,
I am able to receive MMS, but not to send them ... I get a msg saying that the service isn't activated with the Network.

Hi man. In the APN screen beside your APN name, is there an icon showing a small lock with a question mark inside?
