Guest jo12 Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 is there any way that i can tell if the phone is blocked on a certain network, the main reason that im asking is that i cant connect to the internet no matter what i do, ive gone down all the lists of instuctions, but still cant connect. Can someone help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guest rcraswell Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 Generally, if the phone is blocked, you'll see "Network Denied" instead of the network identifier on the homescreen (assuming you have the default homescreen or one that shows the network name) If you see a valid network name, you probably just have improperly configured GPRS settings.
Guest martin Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 that i cant connect to the internet no matter what i do, ive gone down all the lists of instuctions, but still cant connect. Do you get the top centre G on the phone when switched on ? Also you haven't said what network you are with and whether its a contract or pre-pay account. Remember that there will be different APN's (access point names) for GPRS on pre-pay.
Guest jo12 Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 i use both orange and o2 pay as you go, but ive been on to orange themselfs and they sent me down the network settings and they still dont work, is it possible that it is a problem with the phone itself
Guest martin Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 Turn your phone off & on again. Goto Internet Explorer menu-option-connections and tick 'auto detect' Try and connect to both these addresses. http://www.google.com/wml (then check properties for WML, HTTP) wsp://www.google.com/wml (then check properties for WML, WSP) You can use menu/refresh if needed. This will tell you if either APN's are accessable. If you have the centre G displayed (GPRS activated) then you should at least be subscribed to one APN.
Guest The Benster Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 Try taking the bus about 8 miles away from where you are now. then try connecting - Orange are apparently having problems with the GPRS mast/transmitter/thingy's all over the place. I had to go two towns over before i got a GPRS connection.
Guest jo12 Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 Ive also tried the idiots guide to set up o2 on the spv and that wont work, so there is something wrong i think with the phone
Guest martin Posted May 31, 2003 Report Posted May 31, 2003 Ive also tried the idiots guide to set up o2 on the spv and that wont work, so there is something wrong i think with the phone OK this is the settings for O2 PAYG in10 easy steps.

Guest jo12 Posted June 1, 2003 Report Posted June 1, 2003 MARTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could kiss you it worked, ive tried all the settings and they did not work could you now do the same with the orange settings i asume that it will be the same names in the respect of csd, and wap only it will be orange!! instead of o2??
Guest jo12 Posted June 1, 2003 Report Posted June 1, 2003 :D :lol: :lol: :lol: :D :o :o :o :o :o :o :lol: :D :lol: 8) 8) 8) :D :D
Guest jo12 Posted June 1, 2003 Report Posted June 1, 2003 since you now a lot about them im going to pick your brain once again! ive been trying to do the application unlock with no joy, now that ive got an internet conection i thought that i would go to the orange web site and go thru the official de-cert with the internet conection, only to find that there is nothing when i try and bring the page up it is blank, is this the orange web site or something else ??
Guest martin Posted June 1, 2003 Report Posted June 1, 2003 Jo, Ain't is great when it FINALLY works. I reckon these are the stages to setting up internet on the SPV :? :lol: :cry: (fix) :shock: :lol: 8) You're correct about the Orange settings and you can create additional GPRS connections for it. Test each APN in the same way as before. Settings for GPRS WEB Description: Orange GPRS The Internet, orangeinternet Orange WAP proxy settings. Descreition: Orange WAP proxy The Internet ,WAP network, 192.168.71.35, WAP Settings for GPRS WAP. Description: Orange WAP Connects to: The Internet, orangewap Make the following data connections Internet connection=Orange GPRS (uses HTTP for HTML & WML pages) WAP connection = Orange WAP (uses WSP for WML pages) There's also MMS but I would get these working first. I assume you are on contract as PAYG APN's would be payginternet & paygwap since you now a lot about them im going to pick your brain once again! ive been trying to do the application unlock with no joy, now that ive got an internet conection i thought that i would go to the orange web site and go thru the official de-cert with the internet conection, only to find that there is nothing when i try and bring the page up it is blank, is this the orange web site or something else ?? The OTA unlock will use GPRS with the orangeinternet APN so I would get that working first and then try the unlock (not sure if it will work over CSD connection). Hopefully Orange have set up your account correctly and don't have any network faults. Good Luck :D
Guest jo12 Posted June 1, 2003 Report Posted June 1, 2003 ive tried all the settings that you gave me, but what happens is that the small (g) in the top of the screen starts to flicker and then says that it cant make the call
Guest jo12 Posted June 1, 2003 Report Posted June 1, 2003 MARTIN!! If i had half a brain and did what you said then life would be a lot easier!!, i phoned up orange and all they did was change the settings from orange internet to payginternet, as you said, but sadly i forgot to put in, or in other words it works, up intil this point i was all for selling or swapping the SPV, BUT WHEN YOU SEE WHAT IT CAN DO THERE IS NO CHANCE :lol: :D :lol: :D :lol: :lol: MANY THANKS TO ALL
