APN for sorting o2 internet connection on San Fran

[Guest sanfranguy]

I have also just unlocked a San Fran to O2 but now need to sort out the internet connection. You mention that the APN settings will fix this but I can't find the settings in the thread.

Can anyone help with passing them my way? Thanks!

Have bought the phone for my wife and am really impressed with it. Have an iPhone myself, but am not convinced the price difference justifies it anymore. Maybe the gremlins will show up over time?

There are SO many threads about this and most of them have the apn settings in them that I'm nbot going to repeat them here

use the search button you'll find them

EDIT:

They are even posted in the thread 2 posts below this one when it was written

and on the 1st page of that post

A fair point! Have done some searching and hopefully have this sorted.

Had seen a bunch of posts with different settings, hence my cry for help.

it took me ages to search the right settings for my simplicity sim....these work for me (copied from another site)

also check for typos, i'd put ; instead of : on 1 failed attempt

You’re all done now pretty much. Keep tapping ‘Back’ until you’re back at your Home screen then restart your phone and you should now have G/E/3G/H internet access as well as the ability to send/receive MMS.

I am now 95% hero to my daughter in getting the sf on O2 as it worked.

I lost 5% when the saved contacts disappeared from her sim.
