O2 XDA - O2 Service Provider - Got MMS and GPRS all working

[dannay]

Hello there,

I have just got MMS and GPRS working on my O2 XDA. Very happy about this! I phoned up O2 and verified that MMS was enabled on my account, which it was. (I am billed by O2 theirselves as my service provider, not sure if that makes a difference)

Here is how I did it (Note, I am using WM2003, your results may differ if you use PPC2002)

Setting up GPRS

- Start > Settings > Connections > Connections
- Under My Work Network > Add a new modem connection
- Enter a name: <Enter anything, I called mine GPRS>
- Select a modem: Cellular Line (GPRS)
- Access Point Name: mobile.02.co.uk
- user name: web
- password: web
- leave advanced as default
- Click finish
- Click ok to go back to connections menu
- At bottom tab, select advanced > select networks
- Change both pull down menus to My Work Network

That has set up your GPRS connection. To connect to it manually, press the little umbrella symbol that shows your connection and select connect to GPRS. Once it has connected the arrows will appear

Setting up MMS

- Download EZ Wap 2.5 from www.yorch.net
- Install
- Go into the EZOS EzWAP program (not the MMS one for now)
- Select Tools > Options

General
- Select your GPRS connection that you set up from the pull down menu (i.e mine is called GPRS)
- Connect Automatically: Ticked
- All others default

Connection
- Select Gateway as connection type
- Address: 193.113.200.195
- Port: 9201
- Connectionless Gateway: Unticked
- WTLS secured connection: Unticked
- All others default

Push
- Enable Push: Ticked
- Address: Leave empty
- Port: 2901
- Connectionless push gateway: Ticked
- WTLS secured connection: Unticked

History/Cache and Identification can be left as default

MMS
- Message Server: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
- Sender Address Type: Phone Number
- Sender Address: Your telephone number, in the format +44... (i.e +447793 etc etc)

MMS Options
- Message Expiry: Max
- Delivery Report: Ticked
- Read Report: Ticked
- Hide Sender: Unticked

Okay, I think about covers it, those settings work for me, I can send and receive messages on my XDA 1.

Any questions, please ask :)

The bills will always say o2 unless you're with singlepoint or carphone warehouse

If the number ends in 3333 or 3543 you're with dyce. When it ends in 0202 thats the new geneva or gateway.

ive always had GPRS and mms owrking on my xda on PAYG

just on PAYG you cant surf the net with GPRS only WAP but you can use WAP to surf the net :) so all is good
