Hi I have an o2 xda orbit .I have put a t mobile sim in and it phones and voice mails fine,but i cant access the net with it ,any thoughts please!!
you need GPRS and the correct settings. Prvide more info.
hi its connecting to gprs ,the answering modem is disconecting-thks
Do you know, it cost you nothing to type more in your post? However, it does cost you 'the answer' you are looking for if you type less.
Ok a few questions.
What country are you in now?
Does your phone cames from t-mobile?
Is the phone using t-mobile (your country) ROM?
Did you skip the Ext ROM installation?
Have you manage to connect to Internet before?
Does your telco package include Internet?
What do you mean by 'answering modem is disconnecting'?
p/s: If you find me not trying to help you further, either I don't have 'the answer', or I just fed up asking Have a nice day.
hi yea sorry to miff you with the lack of info I will try to address that this time
country UK
Phone is made by O2 (mda Orbit )I am using a t mobile sim that can access the web in my motorola 3i razor ( definate yes to the do I have internet package)
I did install all the disks that came with it (O2)
This phone in new out the box and has as yet to be connected to the web
When i try to access the web I get the message
when i try to get on to explorer i get the message "connecting to gprs",theni get the error message "the answering modem has disconected."-thks
I'm not sure, probably the O2 phone is trying to connect to the O2 GPRS instead of T-mobile, hence the problem. Anyway, read this
http://www.4winmobile.com/q-what-are-the-uk-amp-roi-gprs-settings-for-web-wap-mms-vt1834.html
on the sectin "Setting up Mobile Web connections", it has the settings, and rather detail instructions on how to set up t-mobile UK. Hope that tmobile still uses the same settings. If not, try the WAP section.
Hi
I've had my orbit a few months. Nothing out of the ordinary loaded on it :-
Opera
XnView
TCPMP
SK Tools
Battery Status
A few days ago it started throwing up a network logon box every time I receive or send an SMS. I have 2 dummy connections setup for Internet and Work so that it will not connect to GPRS without me knowing - I did this since day 1 with no problems. It means I can be absolutely sure that I am not getting GPRS data charges without me intitiating it.
So, it would seem that my orbit is trying to use GPRS for messaging. I've changed the setting from GSM preferred to GSM only, but this has not stopped the problem.
Can't recall any software load or changes immediately prior to this happening.
Any suggestions?
Michael
Well I can answer my own question - I had received an MMS and it was trying to dial out to get the photo !!
Michael
goto start-setting-connections and click on sms service change it to gsm preferred.
to disable GPRS use this utility

toggle and disable or enable
i have a mda compact and it was on t mobile i have unlocked it but i cant now connect to internet or send picture msgs can some one please help me set it up manually to do this
your provider was t-mobile? is it still t-mobile or do u have another provider now.
you have to go to the website of your provider to search for the mms/gprs settings for your phone.
goodluck
