02 APN Settings

Hello,
Could someone please help me out with the correct APN Settings for O2 (contract)?
I have searched the web for settings, but they don't seem to work and all are different from each other. Does anyone have the correct settings so that I can use the internet as well as send and receive MMS?
Thanks

Of course, I had exactly the same problem, took me an age to get O2 working OK.
Set up two access points (Seetings>wireless controls>mobile networks>access point names>menu) with the following settings
1st
Name: O2 Internet
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
MCC:234
MNC 10
APN type: default (actually type in default, don't leave it blank)
All others remain as "not set".
2nd access point
Name: O2 MMS
APN: wap.o2.co.uk
proxy: http://wap.o2.co.uk
port:9201
username: o2wap
password: password
server: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mmsc: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mms proxy: 193.113.200.195
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 234
MNC: 10
APN type: mms
Save and switch phone off and on.
It is worth noting that I had an iPhone tariff as I changed my iphone for a magic. I spoke to O2 about it when it didn't work and they enabled MMS, still didn't work. We solved it by changing my tariff to a normal O2 tariff, same cost and freebies, just a different name.

That's excellent! Thanks, it worked a treat!

Would be good if people could start adding these in the APN settings on the new ROMS

hi i have been struggling for a week to sort my mms. have internet but not able to send or receive mms. able to bluetooth pics but not able to receive. called o2 and after trying all sorts still no luck. my x10 was unlocked from orange and aqpparently this was the prob. needed unlatching from orange code to access mms settings. bought phone from ebay unable to reach seller and oeange would not deal with me. did a repair of phone thro sony web site which meant was able to receive bluetooth pics but still no sending or receiving via mms. cut a long story short, just downloaded these settings and all working perfect. to me you are a god thanks so much for this info. searching the forum this seems to be a common prob and you have the answer. seen so many of these settings but all vary slightly. i am a very very very happy bunny. thanks again

oh god what a bloody headahce searching for o2 apn settings is, thank you so much these are the only ones that worked!

Thanks npw, as above these are the settings that work. HTC Desire HD on O2 contract.

help! UK O2 no 3g?

Can anyone help me?! I got my nexus one today and love it but for some reason I'm not getting any data connection at all. Wifi works fine just no data.
I'm in the UK and on o2. I don't think its the sim card because I get hsdpa on my HTC hero.
Thanks in advance

You put in the correct APN settings?

Go to Settings->Wireless & network settings->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names
You should have one automatically put there called 'O2 UK' or similar (I have one for T-Mobile UK).
Otherwise you'll have to set one up manually:
Pay and go:
Apn: payandgo.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
Contract:
Apn: mobile.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
O2 may not have 3G in your area.. hence the value of an unlocked phone .
Also if you've not used that SIM before make sure you have selected a data tariff first.

Ahhh! Thank you so much that worked perfectly....full data connection now

Just thought i'd contribute a little
for those that want full o2 3g and mms working these settings should work:
1st APN
Name: O2 Internet
APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
username: vertigo
password: password
MCC:234
MNC 10
APN type: default (actually type in default, don't leave it blank)
All others remain as "not set".
2nd APN
Name: O2 MMS
APN: wap.o2.co.uk
proxy: http://wap.o2.co.uk
port:9201
username: o2wap
password: password
server: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mmsc: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
mms proxy: 193.113.200.195
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 234
MNC: 10
APN type: mms (type in mms dont leave it blank)
you'll be sending mms in no time
Oh yeah you might find that pics dont send full size via o2. That's because the o2 MMS servers wont recognise the Nexus so... You can download Handcent SMS and in the app settings you can change the phone's user agent to show as a Nokia N95 or Iphone 3gs.
That'll make picutres go through properly
Hope this helps someone

non of the settings seem to work with O2 pas as you go , i had similar tourble with HTC Diamond , since the connection was different compared to a monthly plan SIM. any suggestions?

oh i got it :
Name : O2 Pay As You Go
APN: payandgo.02.co.uk
Proxy: 193.113.200.195
Port:8080
Username:vertigo
Passwordassword
MCC:234
MNC:10
leave the rest blank , and voila .
remember this is only for UK O2 pay as you go (Bolt Ons)
cheers

Issue with Voicemail Notifications and MMS (UK O2)

Hi all
Had my N1 for a little while now and two main issues remain: Voicemail Notifications (lack of) and MMS (not working). I'm on O2.
Voicemail: I've configured my voicemail number (901) which works when I dial voicemail, but I don't get any notifications through of new voicemails.
MMS: I've got two APN's configured (as per previous discussions on modaco/xdadev). The internet one is working (apn type: not set) but the MMS one (apn [email protected]: mms) appears not to work. Basically I get an error if I try and download an MMS message (download of message was unsuccessful). Doesn't work over GSM or Wi-Fi.
Can someone on O2 confirm what works please?
Thanks

Works for me to send - yet to receive (but this worked on my HTC Magic without any problem).
I also get the voicemail notification icon in my notification bar without any problems.
Have you reset the notification method using the voicemail options menu when you dial 901?

No I hadn't (as it's just worked before on previous phones). I've (re)configured it to display the notification icon so i'll test it tomorrow.
The MMS APN settings were close to what I already had but changing to exactly what you put above doesn't work. Same error.
Do you have the ability to screen grab your APN's so I could compare?
Thanks

No screen grab available for me I'm afraid but I cut and pasted the settings from an archived document I've used to setup a G1, Magic and N1 on O2 without issue. I've also posted them on here and other forums for people with mms problems.
Are you on a monthly contract? If not, settings will be different. Have you confirmed with O2 that your account has mms enabled?
I'll get a mate to mms me tomorrow and confirm that there's no problems for me with these settings.

Reduce the size of the MMS you're trying to send to <300kb... the messaging app doesn't resize them and a lot of networks have size limits.

MMS was working fine on my old phone, HTC Rose.

forum .o2 .co .uk/viewtopic.php?p=144262#144262
I found this link on the O2 forum for when i got my N1. Iv used it to set up my N1 and my Wifes Magic. MMS works, although i remember reading a problem somewhere that because the O2 network doesnt currently support HTC phones, the image resizing is a bit pants. Recieving images come through at something like 160x160... terrible
Sorry for posting link funny, but all settings are right there!

These are the settings i've tried before, but i'll give it another go, thanks

Right - fiddled a bit with my settings this morning after running some tests:
These are definitely working for me (receiving and sending) - note small differences from my previous post..

Thanks, still not working for me. In my list of APN's (two, one internet and the mms one), I have a green dot next to the internet one but nothing next to the mms one. Is that right?
Also what proxy do you have set underneath the APN address? There are two proxy addresses for the APN but you only detailed one.
The only other thing that may be different is that my O2 tarriff is a business one, not residential, but from searching around the settings aren't different.

[Q] Loop Mobile Wap Settings for HTC WildFire

I have activated Wap of Loop Mobile for my HTC Wildfire(Android).
I called them several times but they told me Loop Wap is incompatible with HTC wildfire. And I found one thread for setting but it is for Windows OS here.
I tried to setup some options but connection fails again. Loop Mobile provide unlimited plan on WAP so I want it to be done. But could not...
Please help me somebody...I want it desperately...
I tried to connect using following settings..
In Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
Loop WAP
APN : mizone
Proxy: 10.0.0.10
Port: 9401
Username:<Not set> (also tried my mb. no)
Password:loop (also tried mmsc, my mb. no)
Server: http://atcafe.loopmobile.in
MMSC: <Not set>
MMS proxy:<Not set>
MMS Port: <Not set>
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 404
MNC: 21
Authentication Type: None
APN type: default
Thanks in Advance....

Can you access the internet using the browser? Also, Android Apps cannot function using WAP. They need GPRS/EDGE or better. (Something along the lines of Vodafone Live and Vodafone Mobile Connect, since I have never used Loop, dont know the terminologies there).
Lastly, try inputting the APN name as www

Thanks for your Quick reply.. Tried www also but its not working..
Yes I come to know about it. But I activated it. so finding way to activate it. Loop has GPRS plan costier than others hopefully will transfer to other nice n/w.

Loop does not provide settings for android.its not compatible.
switch to vodafone or airtel

REply
You can use wap on loop.You will be able to use the browser and opera but not apps.
