Guest dleach2103 Posted August 17, 2005 Report Posted August 17, 2005 I have a problem with my Orange SPV C500 and wondered whether anyone could help or point me in the right direction? I have had the phone unlocked and am using a Vodafone Sim card. I can't access WAP or GPRS though because I don;t have the correct settings. Has anyone been able to set their phone up with the Vodafone Internet and WAP settings? Any advice? I've been looking through the Help sections but can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Any helps is much appreciated :shock: :??:

Any helps is much appreciated :shock: :??: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm using a C500 on Vodafone, and have managed to get everything working ok. Firstly, I went and deleted all the Orange data services that came as default, then used the following settings to get GPRS set up, and configure WAP and MMS. Note, this is for Vodafone in the UK : Dial Up Connections ------------------- Create new connection (Vodafone WAP) Connects to - WAP Network Phone no - +447836900808 Username - [email protected] Password - user Domain - [Empty] GPRS Connections ---------------- Create new connection (Vodafone GPRS) Connects to - The Internet Access point - Internet Username - web Password - web Primary DNS - 0.0.0.0 Secondary DNS - 0.0.0.0 IP Address - [Empty] Create new connection (Vodafone MMS) Connects to - Secure WAP network Access point - wap.vodafone.co.uk Username - wap Password - wap Primary DNS - 0.0.0.0 Secondary DNS - 0.0.0.0 IP Address - [Empty] Once set up, in data connections, select the following : Internet connection - Vodafone GPRS Work connection - Automatic WAP connection - Vodafone WAP Secure WAP connection - Vodafone MMS To get MMS messaging working, you need to add a new connection for media messages under the messaging menu (you can/should delete the Orange settings). Use the following config to create the new connection : Description: GPRS MMS MMSC Address: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms Data Connection: Secure WAP Network Gateway: WAP 1.0 Gateway I.P Address: 212.183.137.012 Port: 9201 Dont forget to set the Vodafone SMS service center number up if it's not already there. The number is +447785016005 The voicemail number needs to be set to 121 to get the voicemail hotkey working as well, otherwise you'll just get a disconnected tone when you try to call it. That should get you the full Vodafone service on your C500. Hope that helps you out! Edited August 18, 2005 by Maxrom
Guest dleach2103 Posted August 18, 2005 Report Posted August 18, 2005 IT WORKS, IT WORKS, IT WORKS !!!! My undying gratitude goes out to you Maxrom. May you live to be 1000 !! Its nice to know there are people out there who can sort out life's little problems. You have been a huge help (far more help than those people at the aptly named Vodafone Customer Service) For anyone who has the same problem I had, and has very little technical knowledge (like me), follow these instructions above exactly, and you will have no problems. Thanks again David :) ;)
Guest Maxrom Posted August 18, 2005 Report Posted August 18, 2005 Glad it helped you out - getting it all working had me a bit puzzled at first too, but it's all working now! Enjoy! :)
Guest billingeuk Posted August 21, 2005 Report Posted August 21, 2005 (edited) Any chance you could help with the settinsg for O2? I've tried putting settings in from various places, but it refuses to connect. thanks in advance BillingeUK Edited August 21, 2005 by billingeuk
Guest Acheron Posted September 18, 2005 Report Posted September 18, 2005 I've got all this set up, but when I try and set up to be able to download my email direct to my phone from my server, I just get "Unable to connect, verify you have network coverage." The "G" comes on (over the antenna symbol) as it makes the connection, but then that message appears. I checked with Vodafone and I have MMS and GPRS set up on my account. Any ideas? A
Guest ash1001 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Posted September 23, 2005 Hi Maxrom, thanks for the post, done it all on my C500 other than from here - "Dont forget to set the Vodafone SMS service center number up if it's not already there. The number is +447785016005 The voicemail number needs to be set to 121 to get the voicemail hotkey working as well, otherwise you'll just get a disconnected tone when you try to call it." I would be obliged if you could point me in the right direction as far as carrying out this part of the task is concerned. Cheers in advance
