When ever we send syncl Settings to a Sony Ericsson handset it is received by the handset. We enter the pin and then the handset returns "Settings not valid. Check with your provider and try again" Yet when we send the same settings to a Nokia handset it works.

Newer SonyEricsson phones do not like settings that do not include a proxy definition ... that is to say, application settings that configure an application for direct internet connections.

Our observations (and a work-around) are detailed in the following thread:

Do note that unfortunately, if you must provision SyncML settings without a proxy definition, you will need separate XML for SonyEricsson devices compared to other devices (as other devices do not like the work-around required for SonyEricsson's bug).
