O2 XDA Orbit UK with Voda SIM - GPRS Problem - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Hi All,
Am sure there are many threads - did a search but came up with nothing like mine. O2 Branded XDA Orbit with Vodafone SIM.
Upgraded from Default ROM to WM6 Bepe version - everything seems fine except my GPRS Connection.
CE OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3)
Rom 3.4.207.1 WWE
4/18/07
Radio 2.49.90
Protocol 4.1.13.25
Model ARTE200
I have tried connecting to GPRS using my VODA SIM - which I know for a fact IS enabled for it as I was using it on my XDA-IIs - Now I just cannot connect to the GPRS to access my gmail or anything whatsoever.
I entered all the details for Voda-GPRS manually and also from CAB from this site and still cannot connect - it starts to connect and says the "connection was disconected" check settings...!!!
I am at my wits end on what the problem is !
Any ideas?

A couple of months ago I had an HTC Beta of WW6 and had to wipe it as it would not connect, same as you. Afterwards, I found out that WW6 install resets varions Connections settings incorrectly (part of beta).
Go to Settings / GPRS settings and make sure you have CHAP selected
My install had PAP selected.

Sounds to me like the rom you have used has a feature/setting that disconnects GPRS connections for whatever reason - possibly to stop programs from auto connecting with GPRS.
Have you checked with the creator of the ROM to see if anything like this was implemented in to it? It may be fixable with a registry tweak or setting.

Mine worked both Bepe and B&B V2 ok.
GPRS:
1. Click on Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections
2. Under the heading 'My Work Network', click on 'Add a new modem
connection'
3. The settings you require are:
4. Name = Vodafone MMS
5. Modem = Cellular Line (GPRS)
6. Click 'Next'
7. Access Point Name = wap.vodafone.co.uk
8. Click 'Next'
9. Username = wap
10. Password = wap
11. (leave the Domain field blank)
12. Click 'Finish'

Thanks Guys - Worked fine - Seems I was giving the APN wrong...
Well finally atleast it's working now...
Now only to get the Blackberry connect to work and I'm on cloud nine !!!

Hi I was trying to set my dad up with my old wizard.
He's on vodaphone and I've been able to get the GPRS working using the above settings (I also had to add a proxy server of 212.183.137 - type - HTTP port 8799) but IE is now browsing the internet.
However when I try to connect to a imap mail account it just says connecting, then says failed to connect, check settings.
Does anyone with a vodafone account know if you're able to connect to a personal mail server?
Are there any more specific proxy settings?
(start -> settings -> connections -> manage exsiting connections -> proxy settings ->advanced)
Or any advice from someone who's been able to get this working.
Cheers
Matt

All Carrier UK Settings
I downloaded this from the HTC Site - It has the settings for all carriers...Maybe this will help.

Thanks tried this, but it has an APN of internet and these settings always give me the
'answering modem has disconnected error'

I used to get the sae error and then I called up Vodafone and told them. They reset the SIM from their side and things started working fine.

OK thanks for that. I'll just hand it over to my dad with GPRS working and see if he can get his sim card reset.
Cheers

GPRS only working upstream on XDAIIs

Got a weird problem. GPRS only seems to work upstream - not downstream. I can send MMS but not receive. I cannot download any web pages. checked SIM card in another XDA and GPRS works fine so it must be the phone, not the Mobile account.
Upgraded system ROM and Radio to latest:-
ROM : 1.40.00WWE
Radio : 1.12.00
Ext ROM : 1.31.920 WWE
Tried taking out all the add-on applications from extended ROM in case of conflict - but no luck.
Can't find any way to get GPRS download to work. System is logging on as it can pick up an IP address. Just that no data flows down to the device.
Any suggestions?
MMS has different settings to http. Go to you connections manager and copy the details from the other xda which you tested it on
Thanks - but tried that. Copies all settings exactly but still no luck. Loaded IP Dashboard so I can check network settings. Looks like I am getting an IP address from the network - I can ping the default gateway, but no data ever seems to make it through to the browser. That is what made me think it might be an application conflict - hence removing everything from the extended rom - but still no luck. All very strange.

xda exec issues PLEASE HELP IM NEW TO THIS

Hello. I have a XDA exec on o2.
I upgraded the ROM from their website.
Issues :- If I install in 0506 mode I loose my 3G internet connection and the ability to send and recivie MMS. (I can not find the connection settings)
No one can send me anything by bluetooth. But bluetooth is working as my head set works.
Any Hacks you think I should be running ?
Thanks
Carll
I di the same as you and it works much better than before. You don't need any hack. Just O2 support and demand they give the settings.
For MMS as I did it:
go to your inbox/menu/MMS configuration. Goto the server tabs.
tap new and enter the following:
Server Name: I call it O2 UK
Gateway 193.113.200.195
port number 8080
server address: http://mmsc.mmc.o2.co.uk:8002
connect via: choose yoru network I put My Work network
sednignzie limitations: 100k
WAP version: Wap 2.0
I don't have the bluetooth problem. But .... I was unable to receive files, you can enable this in registry (can't remember now - doing this from work ) but the check the registery OBEX or something
Also after the upgrade my battery icon disappeared but I got back by enabling it in the registry.
Check the hack pool at this forum (hack is not the correct word in my opinion - settings enabling in the registry is more correct).
Either way I do think yo should contact O2 and they are obliged to give you all the settings and help you wiht bluetooth (since it is their upgrade did that according to you.)
Hope this helps.

or you could try following the above thread.
Download the cab file and keep it on your storage card. Then you just need to run the file and it is all done for you automatically.
Keep it safe in case you need it again. Saves entering the information manually.

MDA Pro -> Jasjar ROM Upgrade : T-Mobile UK Settings Help

Hi all -
First of all, this isn't a "Help - a ROM upgrade killed my baby" post.
All (seems) to be working just fine, and I'm getting email pushed to me very happily (hurrah).
I do, however, have a question about the connections settings, which I'm hoping other UK users can help me with.
I've set up the gprs/umts connection to use access point "general.t-mobile.uk" as my device previously had. I've set the username / password to user /pass, as I found out doing a quick search.
My problem is, though, that whilst the (U) symbol is shown, my connection rate is ridiculously slow (like treacle).
Are there any other settings I should be reviewing? Is that username/password correct?
Thanks for any suggestions

Okay - having rebooted the phone, I'm unable to make a data connection at all. Is this a known problem? Is there an issue with this radio stack (1.0.9) on T-Mobile?
the i-mate rom have wrong settings for t-mobile UK in MMS and data.
You need to set them up manually.
Best way to do it is read the manual on t-mobile site.. it has a step by step guide.
I did that and it worked..
the settings you might have found using google search on 3rd party sites don't work, I tried that already

enable auto config... under settings connection / advanced network...
mine works without any extra settings...
but i'm sure gprs /3g settings are on optus' mobile homepage
Hi
I experienced a similar problem with my Diamond I purchased on the weekend. It was a Telstra NextG model that was supposedly unlocked and able to work on all networks.
It worked with my Optus SIM as a phone but I couldn't get any Internet connectivity.
I ended up flashing it to a cooked ROM which auto-detected the Optus SIM on first boot and configured itself automatically. Internet is now working without problem.
FYI I'm now using "Dia Druitt v05" ROM and am very happy with it. Original ROM version was 1.38.
Battery life is not great but I have just changed the radio from .06 to .bs14 and will see if that makes any difference.
Cheers
Loki

HI Loki
Can you explain how you did this by Dia Druitt v05 ROM...I have the same problem...I can call and SMS but now internet activity / MMS...dont know what to change on the phone...thanks for your help
You should be able to download the optus/vodafone rom from HTC using the Telstra Next G diamond serial without any issues.
Otherwise, here are the steps to manually input them:
For Internet:
1. Tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections.
4. Tap on the Connections Icon.
5. Tap on Add a new modem connection under My Work Network.
6. Enter Optus WEB in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Select Cellular Line (GPRS) in the drop down list of Select a modem.
8. Tap Next.
9. Enter internet in the Access point name field.
10. Tap Next.
11. Enter in the User name field or otherwise leave it blank.
12. Enter in the Password field or otherwise leave it blank.
13. Tap Advanced.
14. Select Use server-assigned IP address.
15. Tap OK.
16. Tap Finish.
for some pdas it is compulsary to set proxy for internet connetion if so in step 9 instead of "internet" put "wap.optus.net.au" and for proxy setting put "202.139.83.152" and port "8070".
For MMS:
1. Tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections.
4. Tap on the Connections icon.
5. Under My ISP, tap on Add a new modem connection.
6. Enter Optus MMS in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) in the drop down list of Select a modem.
8. Tap on Next.
9. Enter mms in the Access point name field. Tap on Next.
10. Enter in the User name field.
11. Enter in the Password field.
12. Tap Advanced.
13. Select Use server-assigned IP address. Tap OK.
14. Tap Finish.
15. Tap OK.
16. Tap on Settings.
17. Tap on Messaging.
18. Tap on Menu which is located at the bottom right corner.
19. Tap on MMS Configuration.
20. Under Servers, tap on New.
21. Enter Optus MMS in the Server name field.
22. Enter 61.88.190.10 in the Gateway field.
23. Enter 9201 or Permanent, non-secure in the Port number field.
24. Enter http://mmsc.optus.com.au:8002 in the Server Address field.
25. Select My ISP in the Connect via drop down selection.
26. Select WAP 2.0 in the WAP Version drop down selection.
27. Tap on OK.
28. Tap on Set As Default.
29. Tap OK.
If setting above doesnt work change the port address on step 23 to "8070" then try again.
PS. I just did a search on google for "Optus MMS settings" and copied and paste those instructions.
Optus Rom Update
I've got the same problem. My Touch Diamond is from Telstra, but I'm with Optus. I can send/recieve sms, but not mms.
Can someone post up the latest rom for Optus users? I can'd download it from the HTC website as the serial number on the phone will only download the Telstra one.
Hey guys, I'm really sorry to bring this up again (after all this time) but I'm having issues getting the optus mms to work and I can't for the life of my work out why. I'd tried using all the suggested settings and it still refuses to work (the mobile internet is and has been working flawlessly for some time now).
I was just wondering if any of you guys actually managed to get the mms working or if you all just ended up flashing with a cooked rom.

Network Problem

What I am doing:
1. connecting to WiFi AP
2. trying to access any internet site.
What is strange:
1. Internet Explorer, HTC weather and Stock works perfect
2. BUT Opera, Youtube and QuickGPS does not work
3. Intra-network works perfect either from Opera or IE.
Windows config:
1. I set DNS, WINS and proxy with port
2. in connections profiles I have one "My work network" for both Work and Internet.
3. WiFi session connects to Work profile.
4. NO VPN or Modems in profile ...
5. Adapter connects to Work profile.
6. I have certificates installed to access WiFi net.
What I did to resolve the issue:
- I did MTTY and nothing changed;
- I did change of MTU - did not help;
- I've renamed proxy in settings from Symbolic representation to IP - did not help;
- I've tried both 6.1 and 6.5 WM versions and ROMs
- I've tried many combinations of different settings, but nothing helped.
Some times I saw that the issue disappeared on some ROMs after a number of settings changed during tries... but I did not get a logic of how it become working...
I appreciate any help from you and ready to make a testing...
Where are you, masters?
