Lost Vodafone GPRS Settings

[Guest ben.fisher]

Hi,

I've just updated my vodafone v1240 / qtek 8310 to the new qtek AKU2 ROM... all went very well and i'm very happy with it, but I stupidly forgot to note down the GPRS settings before hand and now they're all lost ;)

Can anyone help?

I think i need the settings to put in under Settings, Connections on the smartphone. There is a section for GPRS which i obviously need and a section for Dial-Up which I'm not sure if i need. There is also a GPRS authentication section in settings which I don't know if it's correct.

I've spoken to vodafone and they've given me the generic GPRS settings, but don't have info on how to enter them correctly on my phone even though they supplied it !!!

If anyone else out there has a uk vodafone smartphone with WM5 i'd be very greatful for help on recreating the correct settings.

I really only applied the new AKU2 rom update to get the push email, though obviously that's not going to work until i get my GPRS back.

Thanks....

Ben.

I have a v1240 with all the settings - let me know if you want others - there is also contract wap and PAYG settings. Have you ever had access to vodafone live? I spoke to some clown in Voda Data support who said it wasn't possible but they just turned a phone on that didn't do it so concluded the phones dont - useless. They definately are wap compatible - I think the proxy server needs to be set properly??

Contract internet is : connects to 'the internet', access point 'internet' user 'web' pass 'web' prim dns '0.0.0.0' sec dns '0.0.0.0'

I would also like to know about the upgrade to aku2 - how do you do it and what improvments are there to the 1.0.9.0 version

Hi, thanks for the help. I've managed to collect most of the settings now, the problem is because i don't fully understand them all i'm not sure how to enter them into the phone.

If you could list the settings as they appear on the phone screen that would be fantastic. So far I think I need the settings as they appear in the Dial-up, GPRS and Proxy sections within Settings, Connection.

The upgrade was very easy in the end. Instructions can be found here .

I got the ROM update by registering with qtek here here . You need to put in your IMEI number to access the ROM, but that seemed to be fine for me.

The main reason for getting the update was for the full push email. The comm manager has been improved a lot, you also get Pocket MSN which i was disappointed not to get on the vodafone version. It also seems like the responsiveness of the menu navigation is better. I'm sure there are other enhancements / bug fixes that i'm not aware of yet.

I would recommend upgrading if you save all the settings first ;)

I've got a cab file that installs voda UK GPRS, WAP and MMS settings. I used it on my I-Mate SP5 and it worked well. Message me with your email address and I'll send it, if you want.
