Has anybody had any success with getting MMS to work with a virginmobile payasyougo Sim card
I have got normal internet browsing working but cannot get MMS to work
Spoke to virgin and they have given me the following settings
Profile virgin mms
Server URL http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002
IP 193.30.166.1
IP Port 9201
APN goto.virginmobile.uk
Login ID user
Password Leave blank
Bearer GPRS
I have entered some of these settings into the Connection that MMS seems to be using but I dont know where to put in the
IP Port and Server URL
Can any one help
Thanks
I don't know which version of windows your using as the MMS composer is different in WM2003SE. I can tell you how I got mine working and its a 2 stage process:
Part 1
1. Create a new connection by coing to Start->Settings->Connections and tap on the Connections icon.
2. Tap on the "Advanced" tab and then tap on the "Select Networks" button.
3. Tap on the lower one of the two "New..." buttons, i.e. the one below the "My Work Network" drop down menu.
4.0 On the "General" tab, enter a name of "Virgin MMS".
4.1 On the "Modem" tab, tap on the "New..." button.
4.3 Enter a name for the connection of "Virgin MMS", select a modem type of "Cellular Line (GPRS)" and then tap on the "Next" button.
4.4 Enter an access point name of "goto.virginmobile.uk" and then tap on the "Next" key.
4.5 Enter a user name of "user", ensure that all other fields are empty and then tap on the "Finish" button.
4.6 On the "Proxy Settings" tab, ensure that the "This network connects to the Internet" is NOT ticked" and then tap on the "ok" button in the top right hand corner of the screen.
4.7 In the drop down menu for "Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using:", change this back to "My Work Network" (or whatever was in this field before you started this process).
5. You can now exit from the Settings screens as Part 1 is complete.
Part 2
1. You need to go into MMS composer.
2. In WM2003SE you need to go into the "Tools->MMS Settings" option.
3.0 On the "Preferences" tab, in the "Connect via:" option, enter/select "Virgin MMS".
3.1 On the "Servers" tab, tap on the "New" button.
3.2 Enter a "Server name:" of "Picture Message"
3.3 Enter a "Gateway:" of "193.30.166.1".
3.4 Enter a "Port number:" of "9201". Don't worry if you don't have a "Port number:" field as the system will default to this anyway.
3.5 Enter a "Server address" of "http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002" and then tap on the "OK" button.
3.6 Tap on the "ok" button in the top right hand corner of the screen.
That's the end of the two stages and you should now be able to send picture and video messages (I've tried both).
Two things to be aware of:
1. The send/receive does seem to take ages.
2. Don't try to send pictures which aren't JPG or BMP as they won't go and you end up thinking that there's a problem with your config. I speak from experience here.
GPRS settings on Vorgin?
Slightly Off topic but I'm trying to Use my xda 1 with virgin and am trying to get the GPRS set up and am struggling, is it essentially the same settings as these?
Many thanks
Nate :?:
The GPRS setting for internet access only involves 1 stage in order to set it up. It's almost exactly the same as the first part of MMS:
1. Create a new connection by going to Start->Settings->Connections and tap on the Connections icon.
2. Tap on the "Advanced" tab and then tap on the "Select Networks" button.
3. Tap on the upper one of the two "New..." buttons, i.e. the one usually below the "My ISP" drop down menu.
4.0 On the "General" tab, enter a name of "Virgin GPRS".
4.1 On the "Modem" tab, tap on the "New..." button.
4.3 Enter a name for the connection of "Virgin GPRS", select a modem type of "Cellular Line (GPRS)" and then tap on the "Next" button.
4.4 Enter an access point name of "goto.virginmobile.uk" and then tap on the "Next" key.
4.5 Enter a user name of "user", ensure that all other fields are empty and then tap on the "Finish" button.
4.6 On the "Proxy Settings" tab, ensure that the "This network connects to the Internet" is ticked and then tap on the "ok" button in the top right hand corner of the screen.
4.7 In the drop down menu for "Programs that automatically connect to Internet should connect using:", ensure that the "Virgin GPRS" entry is displayed.
5. You can now exit from the Settings screens as your connection set up is now complete. You shouldn't have to do any other config work to use the internet.
Ensure that when you try this connection that you don't have your XDA docked in its cradle or you won't be connecting via GPRS.
Happy surfing.
Thanks mate, thats done it. I have tried almost exactly that and didn't get it quiteright.
Appreciate the help.
Virgin MMS
Have entered this setup info into xda2 But it still wont connect and returns the following message
Dialed:gotovirginmobile.uk
Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To
check your connection settings and change
them if needed, tap Settings. If the
problem continues, reset your mobile device
according to your manufactures documentaion
and try again
Help
Thanks
If the above text is exactly what appears on your screen then your problem is easily fixed. It looks like your missing a full stop, i.e. "gotovirginmobile.uk" should be "goto.virginmobile.uk". This is the value you entered in step 4.4 of Part 1.
I tried removing the full stop on my M1000 and I got exactly the same error reported so this should hopefully sort the problem.
Virgin MMS
Sorry my mistake I had put goto.virginmobile.uk in at step 4.4
but omitted it from my previous post
Should the connection for MMS use the same one that internet explorer uses, that one uses one called MOBILE WEB GPRS that appears to have the same setup. Browsing on the internet works OK

Hi folks,
OK, today I did a hard reset and decided to bypass the o2 bloatware - everything is fine apart from no access to the internet.
I have searched this board and have tried about 30 differing settings - including some cab files and none will work for me - it used to work fine... and yes, I am on a contract...
Apart from resetting again and loading the bloatware - is there any foolproof way to get this sorted - I am tearing my hair out!!!
Please help as its driving me mad - the error message I get is "Dialled mobile.o2.co.uk No modem at above number etc..."
OK - back after Doctor Who...
I'm don't know if you've tried the ones on here or not but here goes...
http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
Now this IS strange - decided to reinstall all the o2 bloatware... and the GPRS web access still doesn't work... so what's gone wrong?
ok.... nno need to worry,
1st call your network to confirm you still have GPRS access, bcos networks can sometimes take you off without any notification...
and heres a o2 uk pay monthly cab to setup mms gprs
Hiya - thanks for the info...
Just rang o2 and guess what - gprs is not activated on my sim card... he couldn't tell me where it had gone, but he has added it back on and says it will take 48 hours...
He says I need to ring back for the settings - but surely the correct settings are already on... or do they need to do anything else at that end?
If you done the hard reset and then soft reset when it comes up to warn you that it's about to install the "o2 bloatware" then it's more than likely that the settings for o2 gprs will not be on there. This is because it normally gets installed along with the bloat.
Just wait the 48hrs and if you still can't connect then install the cab file jamichy has provided above or enter the settings manually from...
http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
Hi!
My view:
if your GPRS was working before your hard reset, and not now, I think it's more likely that the O2 rep you talked to has no idea what he/she's on about, rather than the SIM strangely deactiviating GPRS capability.
I also had the same trouble (on O2 contract) getting my GPRS, MMS, and WAP working without the O2 rubbish. I followed these wonderful instructions from the board (can't remember which post they're from), and now all works sweetly,
I hope it works for you!

OK - here is an interesting question - why do the numerous cab files for the o2 contract settings all have a password that is longer than the word "password"? :?:

I cant be sure, but its most likely the same reason windows (desktop) does it. once you have saved the password it is just *'s. the number of stars or blobs no longer has to relate to the number of letters in the password (probably to make hidden passwords harder to guess by knowing how long they are). - it hasn't changed the svaed password to something longer, just makes it "look" longer.
UPDATE
Got an email from o2 today regarding my problems...
After checking your number below, it appears that there has been a
problem with GPRS from our side, and nothing to do with the upgrade on
your device. I have enquired with customer care for you, and they advise
that GPRS will be going back on to the network from lunch time tomorrow
(unfortunately no specific timescales can be given). I do apologise for
this, but if you wish to take this further...
Fingers crossed...

Hello, I know this is a bit old but I am having problems setting up my o2 connections on my Wizard recently flashed to TNT5.0.
I've done the above for GPRS and Wap settings but they're not working.
They both ad +1 dial codes, I can't get rid of them for some reason so it won't work. Any clue as to what I'm doing wrong?
Ignore the above, i finally found a working cab file, all is resolved. I am happy!
Hi New Zealanders or travellers to NZ.
Below are the instructions for setting up your GPRS and MMS settings in WM6.1 for the Vodafone network in New Zealand. Getting these settings to work on my HTC Wizard has been a big mission and has basically come down to trial and error. Using these settings, you will have a GPRS connection when you are out of WiFi range, and you will be able to send and recieve MMS/PXT without problem.
The manual step by step instructions on the Vodafone NZ website for the i-Mate K-JAM didn't work, and their mobile portal where the settings can be SMS'd to your phone didn't come through to mine (despite SMS working perfectly well when sending and receiving from others). Also, no other resource was any help either (even going in to the Vodafone store resulted in shruggs from the staff who basically said "you bought it overseas, we don't support that phone, we can't help you" - dicks).
So, I've assumed I'm not the only other one out there having a nightmare with VFNZ settings and have decided to give something back to the site that has helped me so much (thanks xda-developers!).
Assuming you don't have any settings existing in your phone (maybe a hard-reset is a good idea to clear everything first), these settings should work like a charm.
Setting up GPRS (Internet access)
1. On the handset, tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections tab.
4. Tap on the Connections Icon.
5. Tap on Add a new modem connection under My ISP.
6. Enter VFNZ Internet 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 www.vodafone.net.nz in the Access point name field.
10. Tap Next.
11. Leave the User name field blank.
12. Leave the Password & Domain fields blank.
13. Tap Advanced.
14. Select Use server-assigned IP address.
15. Tap OK.
16. Tap Finish.
Setting up MMS/PXT
1. On the handset, tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections tab.
4. Tap on the Connections icon.
5. Under My Work Network, tap on Add a new modem connection.
6. Enter Vodafone MMS 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 live.vodafone.com in the Access point name field. Tap Next.
10. Enter 'voda' in the User name field.
11. Enter 'fone' in the Password field and leave the Domain field blank.
12. Tap Advanced.
13. Select Use server-assigned IP address. Tap OK.
14. Tap Finish.
15. Tap on the Proxy Settings tab. Make sure the two boxes are unticked.
16. Tap OK 3 times to get back to the today screen.
17. Push the on the handset Messaging button.
18. Tap on Menu which is located at the bottom right corner.
19. Tap on Options.
20. Tap on MMS to bring up the MMS Configuration.
21. Tap on the Servers tab.
22. Tap on the New button.
23. Enter VFNZ MMS in the Server name field.
24. Enter 172.30.38.3 in the Gateway field.
25. Enter 9201 Port number field.
26. Enter http://pxt.vodafone.net.nz/pxtsend in the Server Address field.
27. Select My Work Network in the Connect via drop down selection.
28. Select WAP 1.2 in the WAP Version drop down selection.
29. Tap on OK.
30. Select VFNZ MMS in the MMS Configuration list.
31. Tap on Set As Default.
32. Tap OK 3 times to get back to the Today screen.
And there you have it. I believe you need to actually send an MMS message to someone before you are able to start receiving them, so make sure you do that after configuring the phone. Good luck!
You are my hero. Ive been trying for 2 months since I got one of these phones to get the settings working. Even the guy at the local Vodafone shop had NO clue what he was doing.
Awesome stuff
My pleasure, glad to help someone out

Hi micool_nz
I am using samsung Omnia mobile in NZ bought from singapore. It has got windows mobile 6.1 OS. I have been trying to set up the MMS configuration in my mobile but failed. Even now, I followed your suggestions and didnt get it to work for some reason. It keeps on saying me could not send MMS msg. Kindly help. I have options for WAP 1.0 ,WAP 2.0 or none as options and not WAP 1.2 in my mobile. Also, in step 22. I cant find server tab, instead I have sending, receiving, profile, compose and about tabs. In profile tab, I have 2 options - set profile as default or edit profile. When I go add new profile and followed your suggestions as below
MMS Profile - VFNZ MMS
MMSC - http://pxt.vodafone.net.nz/pxtsend
Data Connections - Among the options vodafone MMS and Vodafone, I selected vodafone as that is my network name. But tried with both and didnt work.
Gateway - WAP 1.0 or WAP 2.0 tried both but didnt work
IP Address - 172.30.38.3
Port - 9201
Despite of following all the above settings, my MMS is not working.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi vbrsekhar
Did you get your internet sorted? I have been struggling for more than a month to get connected to the internet with my Omnia.
I have tried the GPRS settings as described here, but it is still not connecting.
I get this error message. "Dialed: www .vodafone. net. nz Cannot connect for unknown reason. To check your connection settings...".
Vodafone nz can't help. Samsung omnia is not supported by them. I have tried another network with different setting of course, and it works fine.

Hi Guys,
Try the settings in this CAB file, it automatically updates all NZ Vodafone settings.
The only thing I have currently found is an odd MMS problem with WM 6.5 not automatically being set up through this cab however you should be able to add it sucessfully the manual way as described above.
And don't bother with asking the Vodafone storeclerks they're hired just to sell phones, i've run into problems trying to get data plans loaded (they didn't even know what the phone was )
No Start\Settings\Connections
Hi guys
Thanks for the CAB file enclave.
I got a HTC HD2 in Australia locked to Telstra, I want to use it on Vodafone here in NZ. I have made some reg edits to get rid of some Telstra stuff, and have installed this cab file above which unlocked a few things, but still can not get the "Start\Settings\Connections" dialogue to come up.
Anybody know where in the registry I can turn this menu item back on?
I hit START, I hit the cog shaped SETTINGS icon, I get a Blue Settings menu, which has WIRELESS CONTROLS and DATA SERVICES but nothing about CONNECTIONS.
I want to set up VODAFONE MMS in the My Work Network but can't find it!
Matt
Try automatic configuration on the HD2

Hi Matt,
I too now have an HTC HD2 (International Version) and I found there is an easy way for the settings to be configured automatically from the Vodafone network. This should work for you too, unless the Telstra version of the HD2 has some network locks.
On the Blue settings menu you described where you saw Wireless Controls and Data Services, down the bottom right there should be a Menu option. Tap on that and select All Settings. From there, tap on Connections, then tap on Connection Setup.
All going well you should have two drop down lists. One with the Country (change it to New Zealand if it isn't already selected) and the second one with Operator (select Vodafone NZ if it isn't already selected). Tap on the OK option on the bottom left and the correct settings (including MMS/PXT settings) will be automatically downloaded to your phone from the VF network.
It worked a treat for me on my HD2. See how you go
Regards,
Mike
Hi Mike,
Thanks for that.
There is a MENU button and it does have a CONNECTIONS tab on it but it doesn't take me to a CONNECTION SETUP, just to the
Add a new modem connection
Add a new VPN server connection
Set up my proxy server
Manage existing connections
menu, I might try adding the vodafone MMS settings you suggeste in your initial post here and see how it flies....
...oops, we reached our limit.
Fingers too fat to type on the thing, too many hours spent in set up, it is going back to the shop.
Bye everybody, thanks for help, peace and love.

You are actually my personal jesus, thank you so much for these settings.
Hi Guys,
Any chance of a Cab for UK Vodafone setting. Tried to edit reg but cant Unlock MMS Server For Change..
Help welcome
Hello guys
I was wondering what your experiences are with the weather feature on the free SPB panel. Is the weather supposed to auto update? there is an option set to automatically update, but for some reason mine doesnt. But when im connected to wifi or active sync it updates.
I have made sure non of the other options are ticked like docked or free connection as I want it to update through GPRS.
Can someone tell me if its supposed to update through GPRS or whether its designed to update only through wi-fi and active sync.
I have a vodafone x1 if that helps.
I had the same problem, and fixed it by either:
1 - amending the MMS settings (voda sent me the settings which needed to be entered manually), if you're getting MMS messages OK then it isn't this.
2 - Change connection settings from post #7 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450502
Not sure which one it was cos I did them both at around the same time and noticed weather updates regularly then!
Sounds like you are using the Vodafone WAP settings to surf the web (classed as MyISP). This tends to block most requests that aren't done via a browser* and instead you should use Vodafone Internet settings (classed as WEB).
*that said quite a lot off apps now run over the WAP APN on Vodafone as they have tweaked the firewall
Does anyone know if I need to change any settings on AT&T? I love the graphics of this app, but it won't initiate its own internet connection. I have to check email or use the browser first to get the weather to update. I looked at SPB forums and no one knows why. Tried re-installing, but that didn't help either.
Thanks alot guys

Hello all, I am requesting help with an issue that I am having with my HD2.
Ive had the phone for a little over a month now, and it is a great device. I bought the phone unlocked, and it was working just fine. But recently the pass code (the 4 digit pin to use the phone) to unlock the phone stopped working, because of this i had to do a hard reset on the phone. This set everything back to factory settings.
After some work I got most of everything back to normal, my only issue that i am having is Sending MMS messages. I have the server set up correctly as well as the data connections to the internet but for some reason it still wont let me send MMS messages.
I searched all over the board but nothing i found could help me so far.
If anyone has any advice or know how on how to fix this problem it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Ive searched the entire board thoruoughly, and unfortunatly most of them only talk about fixing the MMS server (which isnt my problem), unless i overlooked something
@Shum97 i appreciate that, but thats the set up for Virgin Mobile phones, not ATT
No other help? Anyone?
i dont know about at+t but on o2 uk i have to have two data connections set up. One is the proper mobile data "mobile web", the other is wap, "o2 active", and this is the one used for mms.
If i set the mms settings to use the regular data account it fails.
Thing is, when you go to settings all settings connection connection and press 'manage existing connections' you only see the mobile web account available to edit.
What you need to do to see the other is go to advanced tab, and 'select networks'.
In the top dropdown, mine says mobile web, but if i change that and choose o2 active instead, click OK, and now go back to the tasks tab, the top half now lets me click 'manage existing accounts' to edit the o2 active account instead of the mobile web account.
(dont forget to change it back, else progs that auto connect to the net will try to use the wap account. In my case it still works, but is slow, and i think costs.)
So, , , not sure if it is any help to you, but when i set up manually, (and i have done three or four times) i ...
1 - set up the o2 active wap account
2 - set up the mobile data account
3 - set up the mms server settings, making sure to choose o2 active and not mobile web as the connection.
THanks alot, ill be sure to give this a try, Does anyone think Flashing my device might help with my problem?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
only if the 'connection setup' has details of the at+t network in it. connection setup for the euro leo can be found as a cab, im sure the tmo one can be too, but i suspect neither will have att network settings in it.
Id guess it's manual all the way, sorry.
ah i see, ill play around with it and see what i can do then
