Hi you wonderfull helpfull people!!

I did a search on this and can find various settings etc but cant seem to find anything specific!!

I purchased a Orange SPV M500 but I have an O2 Contract Sim, so I unlocked the M500 (Using the wonderfull software from here - thanks for that by the way!) and am now using my O2 sim in the phone. Now ringing people and sending text is obviously OK, however I have a problem connection to the net and sending email's MMS and its all down to my GPRS settings still being set at the Orange ones.

I tried to ammend the settings by getting them from the O2 website (I am unable to send them to my phone as you have to select the phone you use, and obviously they dont have the M500 in their list as they dont sell it, I tried to get the settings for thier XDA but it doesn't work) I tried to put them in the M500, but there seems to be more settings on their website than there is space for on the M500!!!

Help!!!

The main reason I got the phone was for net access and now I havn't got it LOL

So does anyone else have an M500 running an O2 Sim and have the GPRS working and if so can you help pleaaaasssseee

thanks in advance to any replies!

:lol: :lol:

Hi

Try this the file has been posted on here b4, but could not find it :-) so ive attached it to this message.

delete all of the setting in connections, copy the cab to your phone and run it useing file manager. you have to do a soft reset, check in MMS settings that you are useing the o2uk and delete the orange settings.

hope it helps

i used it on a mda compact, hope it helps

Thanks alot thats a great help.

I will do this when I can get on my own PC (Im at work and we have a download/upload block grrrr) so will hopefully try in in the next few days!

When you say delet all settings do you mean go to the GPRS main page and tap and hold till the delet option comes up and delete each thing set up (i.e there is the O2 one I created and the original Orange one) or just go in to each profile and just clear all the info in the fields? Sorry just want to double check thats all!!!

And does it matter which folder I copy it to in my phone, or shall I just whack it in the root directory or something?

Thanks again BTW can't wait to try this

Hi

I deleted all the setting that where on the phone, (MDA compact) when u run the cab it will create all the seting u nead :-) so no need for the old ones, if you are unsure back up the phone with active sync then if u have any problems you car put it back as it was.

copy the cab anywhere u like, then run it useing file manager and it will set up the gprs settings for u
