Changed from AT&T to Cingular 64k SIM - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

My questions is does anyone know how to get back online. Now that I am using a Cingualr SIM with my SX-56 all I can do is send SMS messages and that is pretty much it.
I need to know how to set up the GPRS to utilize Cingular network.

Was ATT now trying to use on Cingular. How do I configure i
I can not seam to make it work. I did the unlock thing and have yet to use it. How do I program it for Cingular. The only choice I see for autoconfig is T Mobile. I now can not find the screen that had some info. Boy am I blonde!

XDA IIi unlocked from O2 - need Orange settings

Hi
I recently purchased an O2 XDA IIi, which is unlocked from O2 and has been hard-reset to remove O2 features.
My SIM works as much that I can make/receive calls and send/receive text messages.
But, to access Internet, Email, MMS etc etc I need the settings for Orange (Ive tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7306 but no luck).
Does anyone have the correct settings please ?
Is there a programme I can download (the type that is pre-installed onto Orange phones) as this may be the quickest solution.
I have tried Orange support on 3 occassions now and whilst they state they dont support non-orange phones they have tried to help - but without success.
Does anyone know if the hard-reset actaully leaves various O2 settings on the phone, which still need sorting.
ANY HELP WOULD BE GOOD !!
Thank You !!!

Hi mate,
Are you on PAYG or Contract?
If your on contract try this :wink:
Daz aka Cadburys Man.
Hi
Im on contract.
The other potential problem is that its an orange sim, orange contract BUT an EQ Virgin tariff (if that makes a difference)
Paul
Mate i can't see that making any difference what so-ever, if it's Orange contract it's Orange contract as far as i'm concerened, unless of course someone can say differently.

Hi Daz
Thanks for that - but no luck with it.
Just to check I did things correctly.....
Downloaded it to desktop and bluetoothed it to PDA.
Found it in My Docs and clicked it to load it.
Was that correct procedure ?
Unfortunately, when I try to connect with it I get........
"No modem at above number. To check your connection settings and change them if needed tap settings"
Name = Orange Internet
Modem = Cellular Line (GPRS)
APN = orangeinternet
User = [blank]
Password = [blank]
TCP/IP = User server assigned IP address
Servers = Use server assigned addresses
Are the the settings that were downloaded ?
Thanks
Paul
Hmmmm thats wierd cos mine works and the settings are same as mine :?
I copied mine using the cradle through activesync but don't think that matters at all as the settings are the same.
Anyone else have a solution or tryed this file sucessfully?
Sorry i couldn't be of more help
Daz.
as i wrote in this post in the other forum then if it's set on auto pick of the o2 network profile it is bound to fail
Rudegar
There is NO mention of O2 anywhere on connections.
I ONLY have Orange Internet set up as described above.
Now.......
someone suggested looking at the External Rom ??
Ive managed to unlock this and need to know where and what I am looking to change ?
..Unless anyone has a full ext rom download i can use to overwrite what i already have ?
MANY MANY thanks

What ROM to use and how to customize 8525 for T-mobile USA

I have SuperCID unlocked cingular 8525 (HERM 100) with a standard shipped ROM. I am curious if somebody can advise on what is the most suitable ROM to use with 8525 to get all T-mobile USA features and settings for network and MMS?
If the ROM does not matter - is it possible to export all network and MMS settings from my other phone which is T-mobile Dash (HTC S610) to achieve that goal?
I know it's a matter of personal choice (which ROM to use)- but I was thinking if there are some proven ways to get it done right. Thanks.
The rom doesn't matter. I've used a number of them. I don't know about the export. But, here are easy to install cabs with all the t-mobile settings:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311446
In the beginning of that post by Lurch3559 (with cab settings), he is saying "Please ensure that you delete your old settings before installing the cab, It would also be a good idea to write them down."
Do you know where (under what tabs) on the phone should I delete those settings?
I have Tmobile and just have the WM6 Pro Build 17994.0.3.1 and OS 5.2.1437. I downloded the ROM for Cingular 3.57.502.1 and I am just modding and having fun for now. I have a couple iphone things, changed the splash screens, adding new cabs, and just messing around with it first.
After I mess around with my phone for a little I might look for a different ROM to try.
@juzzie: On the Hermes they are located Settings>Connections>Connections>My ISP
This might be the same for the Dash. If not, this Forum also has a section of threads for the Dash U could check.

Softbank mail/internet configuration for my new X01HT

Hello,
I just brought a unlocked Hermes X01HT on ebay. I'm living in Japan and currently have a Softbank contract. I was able to slap my sim card in my new X01HT and get do calls, no problem. My data connection didn't seem to work so I did a little research and found this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298031&highlight=japan)
I applied that and I was browsing the net no problem. I downloaded MMS Lite to handle my S!mail functions. But it's still not 100%. Some webpages I can't seem to open, and MMS Lite sucks. It's not the way my S!mail was before, and I can't set anything up because the options in the program are unreadable. It looks like I need to install a language pack or something just to read the options in MMS Lite.
I know if I go to Softbank most of them will be clueless as to how to help me. I think it's something as simple server/gateway/DNS address and things like that, right? I'm presuming that ALL phones aren't Softbank configured tp your specific plan right out of the box.
Any ideas?

[Q] HTC HD2 Android AT&T

I am using the t mobile HTC HD2, I have it unlocked and running it for my at&t network. I have also started using the android program through my sim card, so basically my phone is running on the android interface. It works great, however i cannot access the internet nor send/receive picture messages. I need to figure out the VPN setting or Proxy setting for the at&t provider. Since at&t does not have this phone they are unable to help on where or how to do it.
Anyone got this same situation and figured it out?!
Please help, thanks
Try adding an apn manually using the settings from here......
Cant guarantee it will work, but worth a try.
If it does work, beware of data charges. Unless you have an unlimited plan.
I dont know where i can put in a new apn, i can only access vpn settings, and the proxy settings.
isnt there anything under "connections" - "networks" or something similar??
if not then I dont know, sorry
ok i found where to put in the apn, i put it in, but nothing seems to work, thanks for the try though...
i cant be the only person using the hd2 for at&t right? lol
might be worth asking in the tmous section....
best of luck.....
idk what that section is, im new to this blog, can you help

ADC settings and MMS on Lumia 800

Hi Everyone,
I have just joined Giffgaff in the UK as service provider. They use O2 network so they are classed as a "virtual provider" as far as I know.
I have entered the APN info in order to get on the net and send mails and all works great. But, I cannot send MMS.
>there is no place in the OS to enter MMS details
>on MSFT site it said that the phone will read the SIM on first boot assuming ADC is enabled.
>I reset the phone and still no MMS
> I ring Nokia and they tell me that ADC is in fact enabled in unlocked Lumias.
>how can I check this?
>others say to install the network setup app but I can't because I don't have the very latest firmware
>some have tried this and now say that Giffgaff is not in the drop down menu so therefore can't be used.
So, as I am chevron unlocked, is there any way to change registry settings to ensure that ADC is enabled and therefore hopefully read the info from the sim card?
As long as your phone is debranded the handset should read the SIM card settings after a hard reset.
You should also be able to install the Network Setup app once it is released again (hopefully soon) after it was taken down to be updated.
If your phone isn't debranded then hard resetting won't help and you won't be able to install the Network Setup app. You won't even be able to see it in the Marketplace.
See this thread for more information on debranding.
See this thread for more information on Network Setup app/MMS/ADC.
Thanks for this great info. My phone was bought from Clove and is supposed to be unlocked. There is no branding other than Nokia. The problem is, I think, the fact that ADC may not be enabled even though it is unlocked. I called Nokia to make sure and they told me that all unlocked phones had ADC enabled and it was only carrier phones that had this functionality disabled. I somehow do not believe this.
If auto data config is not enabled then the info on the sim, card canot be read. And I reset my phone in the hope that I could get the MMS details this way but no success. I have read elsewhere as well that even I can get the network setup app from marketplace it will still not work because Giffgaff are not included as a service provider at this stage. Oh, what to do. WHy could MSFT not have given us this functionality within the OS in the same way as our old winmo platform.:-(
Network Setup app has been available for awhile already, at least for me. I just received an update for it through Marketplace this morning.

Network setup is not even in my marketplace because I am running 11451 firmware and it is only available in th every latest firmware (according to Nokia). And anyway, even if I had network setup available to me there is no mention of Giffgaff as a provider so I still cannot get MMS settings on my unlocked Nokia Lumia 800. What we need is either a MSFT update allowing us to change MMS settings or Nokia to include Giffgaff on their app. I think its that simple.
The network setup app came avalible today in the UK.
It would install and run but still couldnt send MMS on a vodafone branded device, so ive just debranded and its all working fine.
So i can now send and recive MMS
We need to get Giffgaff included on Nokia network setup app; simple as!
