I HAVE TRIED ALL THE GPRS SETTINGS ON THIS SITE BUT STILL CANNOT GET IT TO WORK,
BUT IF YOU ARE LIKE ME.
MY FRIEND AS A ORANGE MOBILE SHOP.HE IS GOING TO GIVE ME THE FULL SETTINGS ON SATURDAY 28/06/03. AND I WLL PUT THEM ON THIS
SITE
i have just got back in, and it WORKS, i have a xda on o2, i have unlocked my 02 xda with the software on this website, it is really good. But the settings on this website for the gprs none of them would work. I had an Orange pay monthly sim card with gprs enabled which, when i unlocked my xda, i couldn't establish a connection with gprs so here goes; here are the settings you need:
on the xda today screen
go on (start)
(settings)
(connections)
(connections)
on the,( when needed,automatically connect to the internet using these settings
drop the menu don and tap (new)
and write (orangegprs)
tap (next)
on the (select a modem)
drop the menu don and tap (oncellular line gprs)
drop the menu don and tap (baud rate) and tap (19200)
and tap next
access point name (orangeinternet) and tap finish
go back to (connections)
and tap (dialing lacations) tap dialing patterms change all the settings to G
tap (ok)
on connections tap modify orangegprs
tap modem tap orangegprs,tap advanced,
tap use name servers, tap use specific server address,
in dns 158.043.192.001
in alt dns 158.043.128.001
in wins leave it as 0
in alt wins leave it as 0
tap ok
tap next
tap finish
tap ok
that's it, you're done, but it's important when you connect to the internet, you must go from the today screen - start - settings - connections - connections (again) - and connect. Once you have connected to the gprs, then launch internet explorer.
If you don't do it this way, the 02 software wants to change all your connection settings back to 02.
Hope this helps you all out.
Please give me feedback
HI dave,
I was just going to post a message asking if someone had grps settings for orange in the UK !!!!!
just like you , i had an o2 xda which i unlocked using the fab tools by xda-developers.
i will get gprs enabled on my sim and then try your settings.
You are saying that, once configured, i cant just click on IE to launch the gprs ?
thanks mate
Hi Ali-Butt
I forgot to say you will b asked for a user name and pass word

cheers mate
i am doing the settings now !!!
can i ask, why you have one set DNS settings and another posts by other chaps have others????
i have seen
dns1:193.35.131.194
dns2:193.35.131.195
are these wrong?
thanks mate
HI Mate
WhenI got the GPRS working with the settings I have posted, when I clicked on ie, without connecting to the GPRS first the settings change back to the o2 settings. How I connect is to go to start, settings, connections and connections again and then connect, then the GPRS will connect then I launch ie. Since then I removed from the xda the o2 smart menu from the add and remove programmes now I can just launch ie and I have no problems, at the beginning when I put the settings in and I was having trouble with the o2 settings taking over, for some reason I can't understand the orange settings were all still correct but would not work so even though the settings were still there and correct I had to start re entering them as a new connections all over again. Hope this helps you out, if you have any trouble please post a message on here and I will be more than willing to hepl you.
cheers Dave

Hi dave,
thanks for your posts.
i can now tell you my findings.
firstly, i created a new connection with the apn "orangeinternet"
using cellular gprs as the line and 19200 as the speed.
If i click on ie.... it connects first time !!!.. works a treat !
if i click on internet on the O2 smart menu, it tries to connect back to O2....
so quick solution, just remove it from the main screen and your laughing!
so mine is all working without specifying any dns settings. Perhaps its all dhcp , with ip / gateway / dns all coming down from orange?
do you think it will make any difference adding them in?
perhaps faster name resoultion?
cheers dave

Orange GPRS
Hi,
I'm a bit of a newbie with the XDA, Ive setup as per the instructions above and I'm connecting ok (i think) - as i can send retrieve emails and surf - I'm just a little unsure as to whether it's connecting via GPRS or just by a data call as I dont get the "G" on the screen to signify GPRS - can anyone help please
Cheers

Hi, i have this sorted now. you create a new internet connection and use the gprs setting from the dropdown, the only setting you need is the accesspoint name which id payginternet, all other settings are default... even the orange phone trainers couldnt get it working.
:lol:
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT GUYS, IT WORKS A TREAT!
LAST NIGHT I WAS SO DESPERATE THAT I WAS GOING TO CALL IT A DAY, BUT… I KEPT READING YOUR POSTINGS AND I THINK YOU ARE ALL SUPERB!!!
MANY THANKS TO YOU ALL. NOT EVEN ORANGE KNOWS HOW TO DO THESE SETTINGS.
I need HELP !!!
I have tried to follow various updates here to connect my O2 XDA via GPRS to ORANGE UK. It have the PPC2003 Cooked ROM and hence none of the above instructions are quite what I see.
However all I had to do was:
start -> settings -> connections -> connections --> created a connection called ORANGE with modem type "Cellular Line (GPRS) -> Next -> "ACCESS POINT NAME" typed: "orangeinternet"
Afterthis do NOT fill in anything for userid or password and just select FINISH.
I also had to: Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> select ADVANCED tab -> "Select Location" button -> select Mobile and press Edit button -> Select DIALING PATTERNS button -> For ALL entries select "G" instead of the default "+EFG".
With all above done I CAN connect to internet and even connected to my ISP WEBMAIL but it is slow. I also do NOT get the "G" icon for GPRS.
I am not sure if this is conecting via GPRS or NOT ???
when I type WWW.ORANGE.NET it does say it is connecting via GPRS but I do not see the "G" icon. Any help ???
Also I just signed up for ORANGE UK EMAIL and then tried to via orange.net instruction to configure my XDA inbox but they only recognise a small number of PDAa with PPC2003 connected to a phone via bluetooth or IRD. They do not support PPC 2003 or XDA.
HOW Do you configure the XDA inbox to connect to orange pop3 and smpt server and download mail ???
PS: I can ping SMTPOUT.ORANGE.NET but no pop3 server...
Thanks for any help. :!:
I just figure out what to do to get connected to Orange email.
Simply: start -> Inbox -> Accounts -> New Account -> Type in your Orange EMail Address -> Type in your USERNAME and PASSWORD and select "Save password" -> NEXT -> FINISHED.
That is it. I can connect to internet and email via my INBOX and WEBMAIL.
WEBMAIL is slow but inbox is just OK on the move.
Hi I have a XDA II I have unlatched it from O2 I am now on orange I need to be able to send and recieve MMS, the instructions dont seem to work on my XDA, orange say that I am enabled to send MMS.... can anyone help please Thank you
asking about internet sharing with P3600 and P6500
Hello,
i have learned a lot reading this forum and i am wondering if you know about this:
When my PC connect to internet through internet sharing of P3600 i get H mode (HSDPA), then how can i see the real rate of sharing ?
Is it reaching 10 Mb of local network, or else ?
What is the real rate of HSDPA for P3600 ? And for P6500 ?
(1.6 Mb/s and 7.2 Mb/s ? )
Do you think QUALCOMM of SIRIUS P6500 can support overclock ?
Do you know DNS settings for french orange internet with PDA ?
Thanks anyway. Mobility with HTC is much fun and efficiency.
; -))
I also share this experience about energy saving on HTC P3600 and TYTN:
Many users are complaining about autonomy of HTC. I have check settings of internal cards and everything is set - no saving - in extended settings.
Then, i experienced the setting - energy saving - during travels.
I does work, and i get days of battery autonomy.
The most impotant is to set SD card to -ernergy saving, and Wlan, and Wifi, and infrared, and also two other network cards.
Let me know your experience and setting about energy saving please.
I recently bought a used T-Mobile MDA Touch. Naturally it has T-Mobile finger prints all over it. If I active an application that requires the Internet, the phone connects to edge or gprs. It notifies me but doesn't need my permission. This can happen with my attention else where and since I am on a prepaid it can cost a lot of money that returns no value.
Any ideas or suggestions? Perhaps there's a switch or a or hack that would require my input before proceeding to these costly alternative?
Thanks in advance.
Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool can disable connections without rebooting system - if you need GPRS, you just start ACT, go to connections settings and tap connection you want to enable. When you don't need it, you disable it again. Works perfect for me
Thank you! Works for me, too. )
New, another invention: after blocking connection this way if you want to use it, you don't have to re-enable it. Just install Opal Comm Manager and set your connection as default in Settings -> |Connections| -> Connections. Tapping Data connection in Comm Manager will connect it, but other apps won't be able to do it Tested on Onyx 4.0.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry I cant see how to do this. I have installed Advanced Configuration Tool 3.3 and disabled GPRS, and I have Opal Comm Manager installed, but latter will not let me switch GPRS back on.
Can you clarify exactly how/where to "set the connection as default" so that I will not need to go back into Advanced Configuration Tool to re-enable it every time?
Hi,
Phone: HTC Touch Diamond (P3700)
OS: WM6.1 Professional
I'm new to the forum, sorry if this had been covered already, I tried to use the search, but couldn't find anything.
Basically, what I'm looking for is an app that allows me to access the Network Management quickly so that I can switch the connection settings from the provider's to My Work Network or another without going through [Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks] every single time. Or perhaps a way to create a shortcut instead?
I'm looking for this because I need to change it when I'm at home or on the road. At home, where WiFi is available, I always change it to My Work Network on both Internet and private network settings to ensure that I'm not connecting through my provider. And when I'm on road, I'd change it back to my provider's settings so that I can access their free websites.
Thanks.
Ok, after some more research, so far the closest thing I found is making a shortcut to Windows\remnet.exe.
Hi, got the HTC HD2 (Leo) since last week. I searched with Google, i search this forum, I read the wiki, faq and several posts, i read the 'don't start a thread!' post, still no luck.
At my work we us a non-broadcast wireless network (wifi) in other words, it's hidden. On my old P3300 with default windows mobile, I could easily add a network manually, but now with htc sense I can't find this option. Any idea if this is possible?
To make things clear: wifi IS working, when I go to the wifi settings I see some broadcasted networks but no option to add a network manually. The advanced menu don't give me that option neither.
Thanks, Paul
When you have the wifi settings open, click Advanced and then the "Change Network" button. Then just click "Add New". I guess you'll recognise the rest after that.
Good luck
Thanks,
I finally found it under Settings -> Menu -> More settings.

Hi All,
I am using HTC TD2 with latest Stock ROM 6.5.3. And I want to Disable GPRS/Data and Have WiFi on Demand ONLY.
I know we have many tools to achive this like: "NoData" and "TD2 Tools". But I do not want to use these Tools and set the setting of my own. These are good tools But...
NoData will disable Data/GPRS, but Can't make WiFi on demand. When the TD2 Tool can do both (or can give me what I want), but I do not want use this tool ONLY for this SINGLE purpose (I am not using other services of this tool).
So This is how I want:
I disable the data connection by Settings -> Connections -> Advanced and select "My Work Network" instead of GPRS/Internet connection. So this prevents me to use the GPRS Connection.
Now the Other One:
Can one of you suggest how should I edit the settings of the "My Work Network" to use WiFi when demand? Or is there any Registry edit that will make WiFi on Demand instead of Connect when phone is used
PS: The WiFi Ondeamnd feature was existed in the OLD 6.5 ROMs, but now Missing in 6.5.3 .
I had this POST @ TD2 forum, but no reply, so posting here to get some help .
Thanks.
