hi i'd like to know what the optus australia settings are that i'd need to setup as, for some silly reason i forgot to write them down before upgrading roms. (i knew to do it i just didn't)
You can find a pdf of the instructions on my site at http://www.p3data.com/pdf/optussetup.pdf
Thanks for the info cerberos. I managed to use your info to get GPRS going. Now that I have that going do u know how to get EzWAP2.5 going for MMS?

Hi,
I just unlocked my XDA II and I'm using a Vodafone SIM in it. How do I utilize GPRS, WAP and Modem connectivity with this SIM? Is it possible to get rid of all the O2 crap installed on it, i.e. "clean" it up properly?
A new skin would be cool!
Cheers,

you are by no means the first who ask this question
And what's the answer? Is it possible at all?

Thomas
yes it possible the xda is not limited to o2 in anyway
you just have to set it up
to do this you need to know the connection point your provider use for mms, grps and wap (if you also want that)
there are many posts which explane how you set it up in the network forum
but if you cant find any i could explane it step by step i suppose
i dont know much about o2's settings but if it's today stuff you can turn it off under today in settings
otherwise you can always make your own rom at www.yorth.net and get a more pure non o2 custom rom
you can get tons of skins as in today skins on many sites
and at yorth.net you can also get phone skins or have explaned how to make them yourself
Works fine now, thanks. Vodafone's acces point is named 'internet' (which was easy to read off the SIM), and the user/passwd is web/web (had to call them up to get that). So GPRS works fine. Needs some more info to set a Modem connection, but it shouldn't be hard.
The reason for my original posting, was that I was lead to believe that O2 had "locked" the device, which is not the case at all.
Anyway, thanks for info. Btw, the link you mention does not work...
Cheers,

my bad

spelling issue
Ttm, I'm confused. :shock: I am in the same situation as you (xda II with vodafone sim), yet i cannot connect GPRS using your settings. The settings I connect with are APN: pp.vodafone.co.uk with the same user/password as you. This connects fine yet i cannot send or receive emails.
Am i doing something wrong? have i missed something in the setup? what do you reckon? :?:
cheers, coj
well one thing is to be able send mails and another is to get mail working
can you get IE working ?
Yes, IE is working fine and dandy
then i doubt it's a grps issue
if you put in all the mail settings like
pop3 and smpt if you used those protocols
and it still dont work with your type of mail protocol
then i would contact the phone company to see if they rout
your type of mails
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
OK, I know I've asked for help with this before but it's really starting to annoy the hell out of me.
I have done the corporate install, and unlike others, the MMS bits were included in the install, but just to be safe, installed Dingo's cab, wich would be really helpful if I lived in the UK and was on O2. I have installed the "Telstra Australia.cab" settings that someone kindly d/loaded from O2's site and to be quite honest, I cannot see a single thing this cab has added or changed anywhere in the MMS settings or the connection settings.
I even went so far as to getting hold of some old manual set up instructions for a XDA II, put these in and still no joy.
Please....... someone must know something to help me, it's bloody frustrating.
I have a similar problem, depends on who I send to, my brother no, my wife yes. Dont know why or how to fix it so I am also interested in suggestions.
Hey guys,
I have been having a very annoying issue as of late I'd like to resolve. I have been trying to flash a new ROM onto my device since thanks to Haykuro we finally can have TMO G1 ROMs on the device however I am having an issue. I follow the instructions step by step, and yet when all is said and done I get into the OS and I have no data network. I can send SMS, make calls, however I cannot check my email or surf the net.
This is very annoying, and I have tried both Cyanogen ROMs, and the JacXROM, and neither one works. I am guessing this is a radio firmware not working, however it is the latest one for Rogers I have found so I don't see how that is the issue (and it is works for others)
Does anyone have any ideas?

Did you check apn settings?
Because if your not in the us you will have to config the settings to your provider.
Does anyone happen to know the APN settings if that is what I have to do? I have no idea what to put in there.
internet.com

Password: wap
Nothing else.

I am not going to look exactly where it is stated...but do a search you should find the settings. These settings were posted somewhere in this thread, I believe somewhere in the middle, it was posted like 5 times.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544654
edit: Sure esmith, make me look like an idiot, lol, guess you posted like 2 sec. before me. Although you were more direct, I was hoping not to spoon feed the answer, cause they will ask other questions again without searching.
For some reason whenever I search I always get crap results.. But just so you know I posted that and then said "Duh, I'm an idiot I should look for it" and I saw the big APN thread and found a post a couple pages back. Didn't work though, so I will try esmiths settings.
I currently am using a Vodafone prepaid card in Germany and I just added the live! InternetFlat package (http://www.vodafone.de/privat/tarife/prepaid-ohne-vertrag.html) however I always get a dialing error when I attempt to set it up. Can someone tell me what the settings are?
I'm not sure if this is the wrong place to post it, but i thought it would be easier to give instructions knowing which phone I am using.
Maybe their service page for connections?
But then again, with a prepaid service, details might differ...
I tried that...and either I'm typing something in the wrong fields or my german is even worse than I thought :S
