Am i right in thinking if i get the message "GPRS Connection not available", that i have to ring up my service provider to enable it on my sim? (02 uk) Ive just bought a nokia 6100, with Free WAP entitlement from 02, (UK) on my old sim, and ive configured the service and mms settings appropriately according to 02 Active's requirements. im guessing thats where im going wrong? i cant see how else i can get it to work. cheers. | |||

You probably will need to ring them. The one thing that I'll mention is that you do need to make sure that you have the username and password configured properly for access to the APN. The normal GPRS APN is "wap.o2.co.uk", with a username of "o2wap", and a password of "password". The WAP gateway IP is "193.113.200.195". I believe that there may be a different APN if you are on a pre-pay plan, so if you are on a pre-pay, check the O2 web site for details. But if you can't connect with those settings, you'll probably have to ring them. Seems like they have some crazy bureacracy in their system (a friend of mine has GPRS on his account, and according to O2, he can't have both GPRS and MMS, he can only have one or the other). -bn | |||

Thanks for the response! You are right about 02. i rang them up to see if they could enable it on my phone but they said they cant, as i am on an offer they are trying to wipe out/discontinue (old BT Genie sim card only, with 50 minutes off peak free per day and 600 free txts per month, all for £10 a month--you can see why they are trying to get rid! Tough!), and the sim card apparantly doesnt support it. (GPRS or MMS) I find that strange, and rather poor service as when i signed up to the account 2 years ago i was told i would recieve free wap. Ive had to change the service settings to the default GSM 02Wap settings, which is really slow, and i have to pay by the minute. (10p) I find their service to be out of order as GPRS is on a pay per download policy only, so the browising is free. so whats their problem?! contradicting themselves. | |||

It's a bureacratic mess. In a competitive environment, you would think they would be more flexible toward customers. | |||

I've just changed my phone & I want to enable WAP as you say O2's web site sends GPRS settings which won't connect. I tried the NOKIA web site GSM settings but that is using a different phone number which I assume will be charged for. The old BT Genie site had instructions for setting up WAP manually does anyone have the settings for the 91500 number My BT Genie contract is 100 mins anytime + free wap + free txt for a tenner a month I don't want to change it. Thanks Richard | |||

HI, I have just used you connections setting for my genie sim card but when i am online it keeps saying line disconnected, does this happen to any body else or am i doing something wrong | |||
| Nick Jones |
I spoke to someone in a shop and they said that O2 HAVE to upgrade your account to GPRS enabled, if it means getting a new Sim card then so be it, they can send out updated sims which allow gprs. O2s "online-based" service is a pile of cack and i keep getting sent round in circles, seriously annoying me | |||
| Terry Chan |
hey I have an "online based" pay monthly genie contract similar to those mentioned, with the same GPRS problem. If O2 have to upgrade GPRS settings by sending out updated sims, how do I go about gettin an upgrade? I'm sick of accessing WAP at a speed of 9600 on a GPRS phone!} | |||

I purchased two nokia 6100 under contract with orange..... i had both phones for three weeks then one evening one of the phones automatcally connected to the orange web browser.... two days later the other phone did exactly the same, NO ONE has touched the phones or settings so HOW could these phones automatically dial, and has anyone else had the same problems??? regards danny | |||
| Bryce Norwood - NowSMS Support Board Administrator Username: Bryce Post Number: 1753 Registered: 10-2002 |
Danny, If the phone supports WAP push "service load" messages (I'm not sure if the Nokia 6100 does or not), then it is possible to send a WAP push message that automatically loads the browser and tells it to go to a specific URL. Many phones only support "service indication" WAP push, where the phone displays a prompt that must be confirmed before connecting to the URL, because "service load" can be abused. -bn | |||

hi can you help me. i have got a nokia 6100 and i was using it as normal the other night with a half full battery. i recieved a text message and as i went to read it, my phone turned itself off with no low battery warning or anything. now it wont turn back on again and wont charge. what can i do? | |||

Hi All, Nokia 6310i's are well known for incoming calls sounding as if your caller is under water/in a bucket! This is only in one area of our network provider (Spacefon, Western Region, Ghana). No other phones suffer like this model, which works perfectly well elsewhere in Ghana on the Spacefon network. Spacefon declines to acknowledge the problem - rumour control amongst the many business users has it that it is a sensitivity problem with the tri-band receiver or poor tuning of the transmission signal. Other Nokia models do not suffer, nor do other manufacturers. Can anyone suggest a course of action (I cannot find a website to contact Nokia themselves), and can the tri-band availability be disabled as a test? I would really appreciate some help. | |||

ive got a genie sim card from a while back on contract... just got a new phone and i can't use the internet on it or mms. basically if u've got a genie sim card you can not do mms... they didn't say that when i called but it was the essence of what they were saying by tellin me to get a new contract. was just wondering if by chance anyone knows of a way to get around this? i dont really want to get a new contract as ive got a great deal. thanks, steph | |||

hi I found that in nokia 6600 GPRS connectvity is much solar as compare to Motorola V400,it is due to device diffrent or somethiong else | |||

I bought a SIM card from India's reputed public sector telephone service provider and got it GPRS / WAP enabled. Intention was to insert into an energy meter which can then be used for remote metering. I find that the meter from a reputed brand, whose technology is proven in Europe, does not seem to respond at all. Are there some peculiar setting issues? How do I verify whether the SIM card is properly enabled or not for GPRS & WAP? | |||
