'Rogers' MMS on O2 Xda IIs?

Does anyone know how to setup MMS on this device?
I'm using Xda with Rogers Wireless (cellular service provider) in Canada. I know that I have to subscribe to their MMS service, but they won't support my device and I have to figure out how to set it up myself.
Can ANYONE help? Step-by-Step?
Also, does MMS use GPRS to send/receive MMS message? Or is it the same as TEXT messaging.
REALLY appreciated!
Many thanks for even taking the time to READ this message!

Well usually MMS wrks with GPRS in the background, so it is via GPRS, EDGE or 3G
Hope this helps

Got settings for T-mobile UK anyone fancy making a cab?

Got my new Vario2 (Hermes yesterday) Straight backonto the forum after a long departure and instantly started playing with Mobile6 thanks to all the fantastic programmers on here. Only issue was having to reload al the gprs and mms data each time. After a long search on the tmobile site I found the following instructions for the UK network.
If anyone with the know how wishes to make a cab that can be installed easily each time I re-flash that would be highly appreciated and I'm sure some others will find it of use too.
Thank you in advance to any takers

O2 XDA Orbit UK with Voda SIM - GPRS Problem

Hi All,
Am sure there are many threads - did a search but came up with nothing like mine. O2 Branded XDA Orbit with Vodafone SIM.
Upgraded from Default ROM to WM6 Bepe version - everything seems fine except my GPRS Connection.
CE OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3)
Rom 3.4.207.1 WWE
4/18/07
Radio 2.49.90
Protocol 4.1.13.25
Model ARTE200
I have tried connecting to GPRS using my VODA SIM - which I know for a fact IS enabled for it as I was using it on my XDA-IIs - Now I just cannot connect to the GPRS to access my gmail or anything whatsoever.
I entered all the details for Voda-GPRS manually and also from CAB from this site and still cannot connect - it starts to connect and says the "connection was disconected" check settings...!!!
I am at my wits end on what the problem is !
Any ideas?
Dev

A couple of months ago I had an HTC Beta of WW6 and had to wipe it as it would not connect, same as you. Afterwards, I found out that WW6 install resets varions Connections settings incorrectly (part of beta).
Go to Settings / GPRS settings and make sure you have CHAP selected
My install had PAP selected.
Jeff

Sounds to me like the rom you have used has a feature/setting that disconnects GPRS connections for whatever reason - possibly to stop programs from auto connecting with GPRS.
Have you checked with the creator of the ROM to see if anything like this was implemented in to it? It may be fixable with a registry tweak or setting.

Mine worked both Bepe and B&B V2 ok.
GPRS:
1. Click on Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections
2. Under the heading 'My Work Network', click on 'Add a new modem
connection'
3. The settings you require are:
4. Name = Vodafone MMS
5. Modem = Cellular Line (GPRS)
6. Click 'Next'
7. Access Point Name = wap.vodafone.co.uk
8. Click 'Next'
9. Username = wap
10. Password = wap
11. (leave the Domain field blank)
12. Click 'Finish'

Thanks Guys - Worked fine - Seems I was giving the APN wrong...
Well finally atleast it's working now...
Now only to get the Blackberry connect to work and I'm on cloud nine !!!

Hi I was trying to set my dad up with my old wizard.
He's on vodaphone and I've been able to get the GPRS working using the above settings (I also had to add a proxy server of 212.183.137 - type - HTTP port 8799) but IE is now browsing the internet.
However when I try to connect to a imap mail account it just says connecting, then says failed to connect, check settings.
Does anyone with a vodafone account know if you're able to connect to a personal mail server?
Are there any more specific proxy settings?
(start -> settings -> connections -> manage exsiting connections -> proxy settings ->advanced)
Or any advice from someone who's been able to get this working.
Cheers
Matt

All Carrier UK Settings
I downloaded this from the HTC Site - It has the settings for all carriers...Maybe this will help.

Thanks tried this, but it has an APN of internet and these settings always give me the
'answering modem has disconnected error'

I used to get the sae error and then I called up Vodafone and told them. They reset the SIM from their side and things started working fine.

OK thanks for that. I'll just hand it over to my dad with GPRS working and see if he can get his sim card reset.
Cheers
Matt

wm 6.1 and the uk

ive lost a weekend messing around with these different roms and although they look and run realy nice, untill one of you genius's make a rom for the tmobile mda mail im going to have to go back to my [email protected] tmobile 6.0 rom.
issues with email trying to use wifi, when these phones have no wifi!
issues with keypad mapping
and even after messing with settings and trying various cab files still no mms working.
there must be a uk guru out there??

Which ROMS have you tried?
I do not think I am understanding what you are saying. The T-mobile Dash/Excalibur has wifi, and wifi works in all of the ROMS i have tried including the stock t-mobile one.
You may have to configure some options in regard to internet/data and mms. Have you done any configuration under the Settings -> Connections -> GPRS menu? Each time you flash your phone, you have to reconfigure these settings.
Anyhow, I am not sure what you mean by the "tmobile mda mail." If this is a completely different device then the T-mobile Dash/Excalibur, then you have posted in the wrong forum; and I am surprised any of the ROMs on this forum even installed in the first place!

ive tried kavana 080307 and 080308.
tmobile mda mail has NO wifi! its like the dash in every way except this. tmobile uk must be tight wads.
subsequently email tries with gprs for a few seconds then goes to try wifi (get double arrow symbol in top right) then unsupprisingly no email.
i have configured gprs and internet explorer works (quite well infact).

http://www.manuals.t-mobile.co.uk/manual.asp?manualid=1866

That is bizzare. Is it possible to cook a ROM without wifi drivers? Sombody in the 6.1 thread said that they got their wing to work with it, perhaps they just dont use it for e-mail then. Do any of the other roms work with email? It would be a shame to have to downgrade to the stock tmobile ROM.

tell me about it, i can live without mms but not without email

In the meantime, you should try this:

If you need help installing, just give me a shout It can be a real pain for the first time without the nice wizard that comes with the new 6.1 ROMs.

[INFO]What to do when you cannot access 3G

I had a problem accessing 3G when installing a new rom. After flashing a few roms and finding out that roms were not the issue, as well as applying a few radio updates and changing radios and a google on the internet, I found out what was the problem. The access point was not set up. Defrost's rom based on cyanogen mod had the massive APN List preloaded, hence I never ran into that problem. However, most roms did not.
Here's how to set it up
Creating a new access point
When you need to add another data connection on your phone, obtain the access point name and settings (including username and password if required) from your mobile operator.
1) From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Settings > Wireless & networks.
2) Tap Mobile networks > Access Point Names.
3) On the APNs screen, press MENU and then tap New APN.
4) On the Edit access point screen, enter the APN settings. Tap an APN setting item to edit it.
5) Go to this site and find your mobile network company name
6) Modify the settings as said
7) Press MENU and then tap Save.
You should now have working 3G!

I thought you already had a thread on this and a mod said to post this in general?
If you think its apn problem, install the rom it works on and then download apn backup and restore. Use that to backup apns and then when you install a rom you want, use the same app to reinstall the apns you backed up.

Good advice, but this doesn't need to be in development.
