Hi Everyone,
Ive upgraded to WM6 and all my GPRS settings have gone so I cant get on the internet or send/recieve picture messages.
I have the settings from Virgin but dont know where they go in the phone.
I know you have to have two settings, one for internet and one for gprs.
Does anyone know whether the internet settings go into "My ISP" or "My Work Network". There doesnt seem to be enough settings on the Virgin website to fill in on the phone.
Is anyone else running windows mobile on Virgin and have the settings working?
Thanks

i always get this error message:
The answering modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings.
i have already set my gprs/mms settings. i tried using my sim on another fone and i was able to send/receive mms. anyone encountered this error?
btw, any smart users here using xda 2s? any one of you having problems sending/receiving mms and accessing gprs? i used the automatic configuration whenever the phone performs a hard reset (xda 2s phone bought from smart has an automatic configuration both for smart and globe). i also tried using the cab file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=20826.
tnx!
Try a manual setting -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=21900 has a Virgin setting tutorial. That might help!
Dilip, I noticed that you live in India and would like to know if you have GPRS working. If so, what carrier are you using? I'm using Hutch and was told that they didn't support GPRS on Pocket PC phones, which is hard to believe..
Cingular
I am looking for help with GPRS/MMS on an XDA IIs activated on Cingular.
contact your service provider they will give you your gprs and mms settings. im thinking we should have a sticky for this.

I want to change some settings of my Trinity (running WM6 on it)
I only want to use my network for calling, recieving/sending sms and recieving/sending mms. And not for internet by using GPRS or any other paid connections. What do I have to change in the settings?
The only way that I want to use internet is by ActiveSync, WiFi or bluetooth.
I have a dutch provider (Telfort, free roaming on KPN-network) I don't think that this is important but it can't harm to tell you
I also don't mind when you want to answer in dutch but english is oké to!

Go to Start, Settings, Connections, Connections, Advanced, Select networks and check your settings.
If not possible, in worst case delete the settings for GPRS.
But what do I have to change there?

You won't need a data connection for voice calls and SMS but you will need one for MMS messages. Go to Start/Settings/Connections Tab/Connections/Tasks/Add a new modem connection. Name the connection anything you'd like or leave as My Connection, select Modem as GPRS, 3G, then all you need is to enter is the APN name which I believe for Telfort is: internet. Leave all other settings default. You will also need to enter the MMS settings for Telfort; let me know if you need help with that.
If you have existing settings you can also go to Start/Settings/Connections Tab/Connections/Tasks Tab/Manage existing connections and enter the correct APN.
I have entered the correct mms settings (at least, I entered the settings that are given on the telfort site for pda for WM5. But I guess it will work fine on WM6 to )
So the problem isn't that I don't know how te use my mms. But I want to be sure that it doesn't make any other data connection. For example a internet connection or any other data connection except sending/recieving mms.

MMS will use GPRS when sending or receiving, so it uses the same access point as if you were using Internet Explorer. If you are trying to not use any data it won't work. Internet Explorer or Email Account will also use GPRS unless you have an active Wi Fi session open. I'm not sure if Telfort allows MMS server access if you don't go through their APN, so using Wi Fi with MMS may not work. You'll have to give it a try.
Isn't it possible to say that only mms has the rights to use gprs. And to only block internet and e-mail from using gprs?

This may be possible by editing the registry. Maybe someone in this forum knows how to do this. I'll do some research and let you know if I find an answer.
Ok I hope that it is possible. Everytime when I use WiFi at this moment, I'm in complete fear No but I will be more relaxed using my phone to the max, knowing it won't cost me a thing

You may have to manually enter your mobile network settings, go to virgin mobiles website and search for manual settings in support section.
I'm with T-Mobile UK and data works perfect.
Good luck to you, and if you sort it, report back how you solved the issue.
I have set correct APN settings and when I enable data, E appears above signal indicator but it is grey which means no internet access ( blue is internet access)
network settings most likely... im on 3UK and no network problems here....although i have found that a few location based apps dont work...
yes i got it working the apn setting were from t-mobile which virgin shares their signal, manually enterted virgins and hey presto it works thanks for the help

APN Error?
Whenever I enter APN settings and save it, nothing happens. Nothing pops up in the APN menu.
Hi guys,
I have a problem with my nexus..
I have installed Kitkat on it and my internet (3G) doesn't work anymore, i can activate the mobile data, it shows the 3G logo, but when i try to use the internet it doesn't work.. so i called the operator and it sent me a configuration message, but i never received it.. now the questions..
Where i can find that option that allows you to switch on and off push messages from the operator?
Where i can view my configuration messages?
Edit:
So it seems that my APN settings are right.. but still i can't connect to internet.. i've already tried a few other cyanogen releases but still no fix..
