Orange Connection Settings (SPV-M3100) - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Okay, I updated my firmware on my PSV-M3100 to the one here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281146
And all works fine in terms of day to day usage of the PDA, but when trying to access WAP or the internet via 3G or GPRS I'm getting errors saying the connection needs editing.
Would someone running the default UK Orange firmware be kind enough to post the connection settings that come with the SPV-M3100 as standard.
I even called Orange to help but "the guy who knows the SPV-M3100 has gone home for the day" not that it is a M3100 issue, just any old Orange 3G settings I imagine?
Anyway, any help on this would be appreciated.
I have tried searching here and the net for what should be in the connections area but very little info is out there

maybe this can help:
http://www.pda-friendly.net/PDA_GPRS_Settings.htm

Thanks, but I was looking for something a bit more thorough...
Settings for Orange World, Orange Internet, Orange MMS
And then the connection settings for GPRS/3G under these
Plus proxies etc.
Still, I am meant to have Orange calling me back today to help me out here, so whatever they tell me I'll document here for the Wiki.
Cheers

ok, i don't know if there's any cab available with all the settings, but a quick search on the networking forum poped up this which also contains MMS settings:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=224183

Thanks for those...
Orange are baffled and now my phone number is not recognised by Orange World at all, and I can't see any website sites...
I'll give them 24 hours more to fix or I cancel my contract (it'll be my 3rd SPV M3100 in 10 days - must be a record).
...at least I can get a 3G connection without it bombing out, even though I can't do anything with it.

Sweet! Those settings worked perfectly on my Orange UK M3100, just as they have on all my other devices. Shame there isnt a cab that can do the same!
Cheers,

Are these of any help?

Hi There,
Just to let you know, you can get the settings straight from the Orange UK website. Just create a free account based on your billing and phone number, and there will be a section for them to either SMS you the settings to your M3100 or for you to stick them in yourself.
I recently put on WM6 onto my M3100, and just put the orange wap setting. Even though there are originally about 3 or 4 different gprs settings on the M3100, the only one that really ever is used is the orangewap access point settings. The orangeinternet access point settings are never touched when the M3100 3G access is taking place.
FYI from the orange site under 3G Setup for M3100:
Setting up the data account
1. On the PDA, tap on Start and then Settings.
2. Tap on the Connections tab.
3. Tap on the Connections icon.
4. Tap on the Advanced tab.
5. Tap on Select Networks.
6. Under the first drop down box, tap on New…
7. In the Enter a name for these settings: field, enter Orange GPRS WAP
8. Tap on the Modem tab.
9. Tap on New…
10. In the Enter a name for the connection: field, enter Orange GPRS WAP
11. Tap on the Select a modem drop-down list and select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G).
12. Tap on Next.
13. In the Access point name: field, enter orangewap
14. Tap on Next.
15. Tap on Finish.
16. Tap on the Proxy Settings tab.
17. Select the This network connects to the Internet option.
18. Select the This network uses a proxy sever to connect to the Internet option.
19. Tap on Advanced… Tap on WAP.
20. In the Server field, enter 192.168.071.035
21. In the Port field, enter 8080
22. Tap on ok five times
23. Tap on x to close the Settings screen.
24. Tap on Start, Programs and then Internet Explorer.
25. Tap on Menu.
26. Tap on Favorites...
27. Tap on the Add / Delete tab.
28. Tap on Add...
29. In the Name field, enter Orange GPRS WAP
30. In the Address field, enter http://wap.orange.co.uk
31. Tap on Add.
32. Tap on ok.
33. Tap on x.
The new WAP profile is now configured and ready for use.
I did everything apart from Step 21, whereby when I wrote my settings down, the port number remained at 9201, NOT 8080 as written in step 21.
Give this a go, and see if it works for you.
Good Luck!

if you're on contract, the accesspoint is orangeinternet no password, nothing.
for MMS settings; google for them, a site called filesaveas.com has them

I have created a cab file that will install Orange UK internet, WAP and MMS settings to make things a little easier!

Hi,
I have upgraded to 20070320_RUU_Hermes_WWE_3.23.0.0_1.34.00.10 on my M3100 which works great except for the 3G connection. To configure the device I used the 'Orange Internet MMS Settings.cab'.
Once the Direct push is configured for my exchange server, the device downloads emails. The device then drops the 3G/GPRS connection and the activesync screen shows error with No connection for data.
Looking into the xml files saved from the original Orange ROM shows extra settings that do not appear in the 'Orange Internet MMS Settings.cab' file.
Has anyone else seen this issue or have more info on Orange 3G settings?
Many Thanks
Crammy

I've flashed my phone with this WM6 ROM as well. Has your SPV M3100 stopped receiving/sending MMS's ?? I've checked and re-checked my phones MMS settings a dozen times and also had orange send them to my phone cia SMS but no joy. I wonder if it is just me or a common problem with the new WM6 ROM's and the M3100?

Mine works fine.
As long as you set up the MMS data connection AND the mms server correctly, yours will as well.
There are hundreds of threads here and elsewhere with the correct way - but the key is to set up an ORANGEMMS connection in the "private" connection settings (with user Orange, password Multimedia and APN as orangemms, then set up Orange MMS server in MMS settings with Gateway IP (proxy) address: 192.168.224.10 , Port: 9201, MMS Message (Relay) Server URL http://mms.orange.co.uk/

Looks like we are having a double conversation here!! Anyway. I have deleted my original MMS settings as these were set up in the "internet" connection, not the "private" connection as you advise. I have used exactly the setting you show above but when I try to send an MMS I can't and I just get the timer symbol showing they cannot currently be sent. I'm really at a dead end hear unless you have any other ideas?? I really appreciate you taking the time out to help though.

Yes, there was a slight problem with the cab file which caused problems for some so I have updated it. This is for Orange UK contract customers and installs MMS settings and Internet settings

Thanks for the settings, however when I go to orange world all I get is a text site. No graphics or fomatting??? My other sites work but not orange? Anyone experiencing the same problem

The browser is probably not returning the correct user-agent string. Unfortunatly the operators decided to use autodetection via this string. Its a right pain because i cant access the o2 pda site either, i get the crappy wap text version
I believe the gurus are investigating it. What ROM are you currently running?

Internet over GPRS with O2 PayAndGo

I have an XDA1 and an o2 payandgo SIM. I have the GPRS activated and have no problem picking up my emails, but I can't use IE or MSMess. It tries to connect for a few minutes then times out. The connection details I have entered are as follows:
APN: payandgo.o2.co.uk
Username: payandgo
P/W: password
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to get IE and MSMess to work?
Excellent forum BTW, I've learnt loads in the last few days reading here...
Enable the proxy server setting in connection options and use:
193.113.200.195
You'll now be able to connect to HTML websites via Internet Explorer, but you'll not be able to use MSN Messenger via GPRS unfortunately.
seraphic, are you saying we can get full internet on O2 payg over gprs, I didnt think it was possible, I use the gsm to access the internet to use my 300 free minutes. If so can you give me the full settings.
Deke, what settings do you use to set up your pop 3 email over gprs.

Great, thanks. How do I do that? I've looked in the Connections bit, but the only reference I can find for proxy servers in under the 'Work network' section. Did I mention I'm using PPC2003?
Cruisin', I'll check my settings for you when I get home.
I'd be delighted if o2 payg did gprs,but 2 months ago they said no.I doubt if it's changed.
LMX, GPRS is definitely available on O2 P&G, I have it and use it daily for emails, it's the web-browsing I'm having trouble with.
You need to set up your GPRS settings under the work connections option so you can use a proxy.

Using the proxy server setting you can indeed view HTML sites over pay as you go GPRS. You can't use MSN Messenger, as it only allows access to port 80.
Cruisin',
Sorry for the delay in responding; here are the settings I use for email:-
First off you need to create a new account so that you have SMS, ActiveSync and eMail. Then run through the settings entering your details (all pretty straightforward stuff). The server info is dependent on whoever is your email server. I have a pop3 o2 account to make it easy, so the servers are mail.o2.co.uk (incoming) and smtp.o2.co.uk (outgoing).
Hope this helps.
Seraphic,
I'm fully webb'd up now, thanks a lot!
I have been told many times that it is possible for internet over gprs on O2 payg, I have tried every suggestion to the letter, I cannot do it, I can get wap over gprs, I can get internet over gsm. I was told by an O2 technician on this forum that it was not possible to get full internet over gprs with O2 payg sim. How can some people get it and others cant? I would be very grateful to see the full settings for the xda/xda 2 listed in a foolproof manner.
OK, full instructions:
* I recommend deleting any existing GPRS settings you have under the work connection settings before entering these to avoid confusion *
1. Go to Start -> Settings -> Connections Tab -> Connections.
2. You'll see 2 sets of option links. 'My ISP' and 'Work'. Under the work links, choose 'Add a new modem connection'.
3. Name for connection: o2 gprs. Modem: Cellular Line (GPRS). Tap Next.
4. Access Point Name: payandgo.o2.co.uk
5. Username: payandgo
6. Password: password
7. Tap Finish.
8. Back in the connections settings screen, tap 'Edit My Proxy Server'.
9. Tick 'This network connects to the Internet' and 'This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet'.
10. In the proxy server box enter: 193.113.200.195
11. Tap OK.
12. Back in the connections settings screen, tap the Advanced tab.
13. Tap 'Select Networks'
14. In both drop down boxes choose 'Work' as the connection. Tap OK.
15. Tap OK again.
16. You are now ready to surf o2 pay as you go gprs full internet.
That's what I did and it works well, but do bear in mind the O2 network is very tempremental; I've been trying to get a connection all day with no joy and I KNOW my settings are correct.
One thing I have noticed though, I can't pick up my emails anymore. It seems the outbox will only connect with an ISP connection and IE will only work with a work/proxy connection. Can I get over this somehow?
iT WORKS, IT WORKS, IT WORKS. :shock: :shock: :shock: :? 8) :lol: :wink:
Glad to hear it
Connection problems
I have just got an unlocked M1000 and I have been trying to set it up to allow me to connect to the internet using a pay as you go sim. I have followed the instructions above, but i just keep on getting errors of the page not being able to load. I know that the pages exist as I am just using big sites pages such as microsoft.com etc. at the moment. Anyone got any ideas on what the problem could be.
I think they blocked the port for internet over gprs.
Yes they have altered a lot of thinge recently. The trick to get html throught the wap portal was blocked & they also blocked all except wap on the GSM WAP dial up too. There is a different Mobile WEB GSM number but that is 40p a minute so GPRS would probably be cheaper.
Mobile Web on Pay and Go
Dingo mentions that there's another GSM number that's 40p a min to access mobile web....................does this mean I can actually get full HTML web access on my Pay and Go XDA ????? How (what's the number?)
I only need to surf HTML pages occasionally - so it's not worth going to contract .................
Thanks

Payandgo O2 3G/GPRS Problem

I've been searching for days to get my internet working on my mobile,
im using a Payandgo O2 Stellar (aka Kaiser) phone
Using these settings..

And basically i cant go on MSN / Google etc, but i can view the O2 website (and some O2 based links from that website), if i try togo anywhere else i get a message saying:
"The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection & try again later."
I've wrote emails etc to O2 but no replys yet, few friends are looking for ways to fix it but not getting any closer to resolving it so was wondering if anyone here has any ideas?

You are now ready to surf o2 pay as you go GPRS full internet, but you will not be able to use outlook and MSN. However, it's still OK. To open MSN you can download Agile messenger. To access your email, just use the web access. You can only use 5MB for free on O2 PAYG. After that you will be charged.
Wow! it works woohoo, thanks m8 yeah ur right i should have searched but ive been searching multiple websites for days! about ready to hang myself lol
and thanks for the Agile messenger thing, main reason i want to net is to be able to use MSN Messenger so im glad that'll do it ^^
Edit:
Cant get MSN or Agile to connect, net seems to work fine though... ill see if i can find some alternatives
Wow, have also just got a new smartphone, yesterday. Contacted o2 for settings and was given only half the story. Could only get at stuff via wsp and even then loads of links didn't work properly.
Tried your settings and yipee.
Ta a bunch.

o2 settings
hey people, i have a quick way to configure wm handsets for o2 data and mms without having to enter in all the settings - install the cab attached...you should get an o2 icon in the start menu, select it and configure. you may have to reboot your mobile quickly to set it up but mine started working immediately - it hadnt even finished installing and ms exchange was already downloading my mail
btw these settings work for payandgo
Thanks for the CAB settings, worked a treat on my Kaiser on O2 pay and go. Spent 20 mins arguing with o2 customer services telling me i had to be contract in order to enable GPRS on my phone !
What a set of loosers, maybe i should email them and send them to this post ;-)
Thanks again !!
Thank You!
Thank you so much or the settings!! I needed them for my job and was starting to think i'd have to get a new phone. I spent over an hour arguing with "customer services" with them telling me i had to be contract in order to enable GPRS on my phone and you proved them wrong! They said because the phone was contract they said there was no way that this could be done.
Thank God i looked it up on the internet and found you can do it and with ease!!!
So thank you millions! Because now i can send and receive picture messages and also go online! I can not thank you enough!!!
I previously was only aware of settings available for WM PDA's to allow MMS and nothing more. I had the required settings for MMS before, but when upgrading to a new ROM I lost them. Used the same settings but this time, they wouldn't work! Just found this thread, now I can send/receive MMS + I can now browse the internet! THANK YOU!!!!!

Great job, jaymit. i haven't tried this cab, but mine was set the same as above and working, except it doesn't allow download data (such as weather updates on today screen), direct push email (IMAP excahnge) or internet sharing. does your cab setting allow these? thanx.

You are a star my friend. Out of interest though.... 5MB, in terms of browsing on my phone.... how much is that? How many pages do you think I can view before this 5MB is taken up?
Is this 5MB limit per month as well?

Getting this also (on WM6.1/Samsung OmniaII). Followed both guides and tried all sorts of combinations (even the idata.o2.co.uk that the iphone uses) and still no luck. These settings are specified for the proxy'd "work" connection. "Direct Internet" works fine with AS.

O2 UK Pay as you go

ive looked here for any info but the posts for my question seem old and not working for me.
i have just got a X1 and i would like to use pay as you go with O2 (best signal coverage for me)
Only they say they cant send me a configeration to use GPRS or MMS as one doesnt exist, they say the only way i can use it is if i get a contract and get the bolt on with them or look on the internet to see if anyone got any working setting.
Is there anyone here who is on pay as you go with O2 in uk or you all have contracts to use O2 Mobile Web mobile, i have tried 3 settings but as yet no luck in getting this to work
thanks in advance
Geoff
Hi,
I'm on O2 Contract, but the settings should still work for PAYG as I used the contract settings on one of my nokias when the contract ones buggered up.
I can upload the O2 operator settings.exe if need be.

The can't "send" you the settings because they're poo... no what they mean is there isn't a nice file they can send along to configure your phone, not a specific problem with the xperia, it's because it's WinMo.
Follow the links provided by ratchetnclank, I have had the odd issue with Data connections, and have heard plenty of people complain about needing proxies to get onto the real web etc... I don't have these problems and I'm with O2 PAYG... I just set my work connection up to the following:
Settings > Connections > My Work Connection > Add new modem connection
Name: o2 GPRS (or whatever you want)
modem: Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
APN (Access point name)
payandgo.o2.co.uk (letter o, not number)
User : payandgo
Pass : password
domain: blank
Then in the connections settings, at the bottom go to the "advanced" tab.
click on "Select Networks" and make sure both select boxes show "My Work Network"...
And that's all! You should have fully working o2 GPRS, for MMS add the details shown on the link provided by ratchetnclank... I never use this so can't just reel off how to set it up.. sorry.
Hope this helps!
The tweaks to get an O2 P&G connection to web browse involves hiding the default connection setting called My ISP (because PIE will always try and use that one) and then changing the proxy settings from a WAP port to a HTTP port.
Go to Start > Settings > Connections > Connections tab > Advanced > Select Networks.
You should see 2 drop down-boxes. The top one will be called ‘My ISP’ (this is the contract web connection) and the bottom one will be called ‘My Work Network’ (this is the WAP connection).
Here you need to hide the My ISP connection so that the device can only see the My Work Network. Open the My ISP drop-down box and choose My Work Network. Once both drop-down boxes are showing My Work Network then tap OK.
Tap the Tasks tab and then choose ‘Manage existing connections’. You should have a connection showing called ‘O2 Active’. Tap Edit and then Next.
In the APN field enter payandgo.o2.co.uk and tap Next.
In the Username field enter payandgo and tap Finish.
Tap the Proxy Settings tab.
Make sure ‘This network connects to the Internet’ is ticked. Tap Advanced.
Select the WAP field and delete the IP address. Tap OK.
Select the HTTP filed. In the Service field enter 193.113.200.195 and in the Port field enter 8080. Tap OK and exit from the settings.
NB. You might find that the Port 8080 doesn’t save properly the first time (saves as just 80) and if so then web browsing won’t work. If you go back in and add the extra 80 in again it should then save ok.
thanks everyone for all helping me.
i printed loads of setting from the link http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
that ratchetnclank posted
But this didnt work so i swapped a few setting from each and yay it started up and worked well all night. Am i going to send these to o2, no way lol
These are what i got working for anyone else with o2 on pay as you go
Access point (PAYG): payandgo.o2.co.uk
Username :faster
Password: password
DNS Servers: 193.113.200.200 and 193.113.200.201
IP Address: server assigned
thanks again everyone, you was a great help

O2 HD2 MMS settings/configuration

Hey Folks,
I'm having difficulty setting up MMS on the HD2, I have just called O2 and they don't support this device. Does anyone know how to configure the settings manually for MMS messaging?
Hi, I got these settings from an helpful O2 rep.
MMS setup – ensure GPRS settings are completed
· Select 'Start' > Select 'Messaging' > Select 'Menu' > Select 'MMS Configuration' or ‘tools’ > Select 'Servers' tab > Select 'New'
· Type in Server name or 'O2 MMS'
· Select 'Gateway' and type in '193.113.200.195'
· Select 'Port number' and type in '9201'
· Select 'Server address' and enter 'http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002'
· Select 'Connect via' and select 'My Work Network''
· Click 'OK'
· Highlight 'O2 MMS' and click on 'Set As Default'
are you having trouble sending MMS messages? I ran the auto setup function and I can send messages fine....problem is...I'm not receiving any!!
and I cant see any way to enter the setting manually since message menu doesn't exist.
tried the 02 website, it just says there's a problem and can't proceed....tried texting for the settings, doesn't work either
so...any more ideas?

I had same problem swapped sms service to GSM only now I receive texts fine
fingers crossed
MMS problems not SMS
Yea I got the manual configuration settings from 02 aswell but unfortunatly the options are not available in the HD2, don't know if its a HTC sense thing or a WM6.5 design change to the UI that disables the old MSS configuration settings... anyone got suggestions... I hate having one of the best phones on the market and can''t receive MMS's ;-(

oops sorry
my mms will send but not receive .grr.. least got sms working tho
Anybody solve this issue, I can send but not receive MMS on O2 in the UK.
I just use the settings that the phone sets up for O2, they are the contract settings though and not PAYG, just tried it now and I also can send mms but can't receive them, and O2 won't help as they don't support the phone.
Hi, I couldn't receive MMS on O2, but have manually configured it, and it's now working fine.
The configuration screen is found on the Sense UI here:
Messages, All messages, Menu, Settings, Options, MMS Server (right softkey)
Hope that helps.
try this, it worked for me.
Scroll to settings>menu>all settings>connections>connection setup.
Now choose your Country and Operator. Let it do its bit and re-boot.
Should be all working now.

Works for me as well, but only if you are on contract, the PAYG settings are different.

Hi not sure if you solved this but for other peoples reference here is how you can check your settings.
Run the connection setup which will create an MMS connection that you can check in
all settings /connections/connections/advanced tab/select networks> there should be a connection called *.* MMS Settings > click edit to make sure the settings are as they should be.
* make sure when you exit the network management screen that your default internet connection is selected or your internet will not work.
exit from here and then go to messaging tab on the home screen.
choose all messages/menu/settings/options.
in this screen choose menu/MMS server and then configure or check your settings.
In my case the connection wizard had a space in the server name and the wrong port selected
Hope this helps
From connection setup makesure you select to update connection setup database. It found a new one when i did it.

thanks but the connection update still contains errors for me
hence the need for manual adjusting
regards lakeman
Right,
Firstly I hope that people have solved their issues with this but if not here's how i got mine to work.
It seems that there are two steps to gettign MMS to work properly.
Step 1: Configure the MMS Settings:
There might be other ways of doing this but this is how i did it and it worked.
Start > HTC Messages > Menu > Settings > Options > Menu > MMS Server
Select O2 UK Or whatever if you're doing this for another network.
The O2 settings should be as follows:
Contract & PAYG are the same here.
Server name: O2UK
IP Address: 193.113.200.195
Port Number: 8080
Server Address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connect Via: My Work Network *
This is actually the important bit and the throwback to theold days of windows mobile. MMS' are not received over you're standard data connection so you have to specify different settings so HTC / O2 are using the Work Settings to get around this.
Send Limit: 300KB
WAP Version: WAP 2.0
Step 2: Configure the connection settings for 'My Work Network'
Start > Settings > Menu > All Settings > Connections > Connections
Select 'Manage existing connections' under My Work Network.
Select what ever option is there and selected and hit the edit button.
Enter a name for the connection: anythingyouwant
Select a modem: CellularLine (GPRS)
hit next.
Now here the settings do start to differ for contract and PAYG:
Contract: Access Point Name: wap.o2.co.uk
PAYG: Access Point Name: payandgo.o2.co.uk
hit next.
Contract: Username: o2wap
Contract: Password: password
Contract: Domain: (Leave Blank)
PAYG: Username: payandgo
PAYG: Password: password
PAYG: Domain: (Leave Blank)
hit finish.
Hopefully you should now be enjoying MMS on you're Leo
Missing DLL
Phoenix,
Looks good except that having gone back to the winmobile sms client as I need access to my subfolders, it seem that the dll that is "removed" as part of that process is needed to make MMS work on the HD2. Have been experimenting and if one goes back to the HTC client (this recreates the missing dll) then MMS messaging works fine.
Although MMS is not a big deal to me it irks me that I can't get it to work in these circumstances. Have chased Zenyee, who developed this tweak in the first place, on how he is getting on with solving the MMS issue but no response to date.
So anyone in the same boat who has managed to crack MMS sending, please PM me.
Cheers
WB
Ive not cracked it as such but found something interesting....I was fed up that my device couldnt do mms whilst using leo energy rom, tried doing manual settings etc,ended up flashing original leo uk o2 rom....
I have crossed reference all the settings and the only thing i find different is that on the original o2 rom under "my work network" gprs is selected where as on cooked rom gprs, 3g is the option.
could this simple thing be causing issues??
HELP
i'm also having trouble with o2 mms settings the help on this page did not help. i cannot send or receive mms. i purchased the handset from ebay, it was locked to tmobile. i've had it unlocked and all other functions (web, mail) work fine. please help. it's driving me nuts.

cant send MMS

i cant send and download mms but gprs working perfect
what to do all the setting is ok
To make my MMS work I had to do (and this is translated so might differ a little):
Message tab -> All -> Menu -> Settings -> Settings -> Menu -> MMS-server -> your profile -> then the connection was set to GPRS or WAP, change this to My ISP or My work network.
its not working

What ROM are you using? I do know that some of the more recent ROMs have this particular problem.
MMS not working on Vodafone HD2
I've followed the instructions on the vodafone.co.uk site carefully for MMS server settings but my device simply fails to send OR receive MMS. This is highly annoying for such a new device.
HELP! Someone must have it sorted.
I have exactly the same problem except im an o2 uk user, cant send or recieve mms when using a cooked rom.

And the same for me on VF UK. Can't send or receive MMS. Did you ever get it sorted?
not sure about vf, but for o2, you need two data connections setting up. 1 is wap, for mms, and the other is for actual data. If you set the mms server settings to use the normal data connection, it simply wont work.
Problem is when you go to settings menu all settings connection connection select networks edit, it only shows the currently selected data connection, you cant see that there is another connection setting there. So, you need to change teh top dropdown to the second data connection (o2 active its called for o2, whilst the normal data is called mobile web) and THEN you can see/edit teh settings for that connection.
the mms server settings need to be told to use O2 active and not mobile web, else it wont work.
Just some thoughts.
O2 user - same problem
I've just come back from an O2 shop, where one of the "experts" there failed miserably to get my phone to send or receive an MMS. I share all of the above frustrations.
samsamuel - could you do a step-by-step guide to the set-up you describe? I would like to try this but I am struggling to follow your explanation.

no worries. if you still havent figured it out yourself and i havent replied by, say, monday, feel free to PM me and remind me. (I have the memory of a 90 year old goldfish)
ok, so heres what i did last time i manually set up mms for o2.
settings menu all settings connections connections add new modem
name o2 active (tho of course name doesnt matter)
modem cellular line gprs
AP name wap.o2.co.uk
user o2wap
pass password
domain blank
then, sms tab, all messages, menu settings options menu mms server new
name o2 active MMS (again, name doesnt matter)
ip 193.113.200.195
port 8080
server add h ttp://mmsc.mms.02.co.uk:8080
connect via **choose the name you gave the modem connection in part 1**
if you choose your normal data connection it wont work, it needs to be o2s wap server.
message size 300k
wap ver wap 2.0
soft reset, and it 'should' work.
