PROBLEM WITH MMS SETTINGS FIXED 17.10.05

Orange UK

Settings>data connections>menu>edit connections

create new connection and call them by title in bold

These settings can be obtianed from the net but i'll list them anyway.

1) Dial up connections

Orange CSD WAP

Connects to : The Internet

Phone number : +447973100500

Username : Orange

Password : ???

Domain : <blank>

2) VPN connections

None

3) Proxy Connections

Orange WAP Proxy

Connects from : The Internet

Connects to : WAP Network

Proxy (Nameport) : 192.168.71.35

Type : WAP

User Name : <blank>

Password : <blank>

4) GPRS Connections

Orange GPRS

Connects to: The Internet

Access point: orangeinternet

Username: <blank>

Password: <blank>

Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0

Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0

I.P. Address: <blank>

Orange MMS

Connects to: MMS Network

Access point: orangemms

Username: <blank>

Password: <blank>

Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0

Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0

I.P. Address: <blank>

Orange WAP

Connects to: The Internet

Access point: orangewap

Username: <blank>

Password: <blank>

Primary DNS: 0.0.0.0

Secondary DNS: 0.0.0.0

I.P. Address: <blank>

Then go back to data connections and change the settings to;

Internet Connection : Orange GPRS

Work Connection : Automatic

WAP connection : Orange WAP

Secure WAP connection : Automatic

Then menu>options, and ensure that My desktop connects to WORK.

This will allow you to connect to the Internet through Internet Explorer by GPRS.

Then you have to set up the MMS settings;

Enter the MMS settings from the start button menu (not in settings)

Menu>MMSC Settings

Create New

Name : Orange MMS

MMSC URL : http://mms.orange.co.uk/

WAP Gateway : 192.168.224.10

Port : 9201

Max Sending Size : <any setting>

Menu> Set as default

Back to MMS Settings,

Connect via : MMS Network

And that's it!!!

:D :D :D :D :( :( :D :D :D :D

My Mpx220 had all the issues when I first had it with Hong Kong firmware v1.10.00 and after doing the above I think it's the best phone I've had so far by a long shot. I have been using it for a week and had no issues with it at all!!

I reckon this would work for any UK netwrok as long as you have the GPRS connection settings and MMS settings for that particular network which I understand is quite easy to find on the net.

I recommend everyone gets one!!

Yep...

I flashed mine with the Cingular 1.3 (1.03) firmware last night after it was on 0.243 (which was like a pre-release firmware and kept crashing all the time)

Bunged in my Vodafone UK sim and off I went, setup all my GPRS / MMS / WAP settings and I'm away...

IMO screen is much crisper, menus are faster, camera is better quality... mind you... I was running on a very old (at least I think I was) firmware
