I have an Idea Cellular GPRS connection, and they sent me the config settings, so the gprs is working on the preloaded browser that comes with the mobile. However, other apps, like Gmail Mobile, the Opera mini browser, and Widsets can't access the net for some reason...Do i have to change some settings to allow them access to my gprs connection? do i have to set the connection to 'always on'? I already tried changing the application access settings so that it would only ask once whether to allow network access, and that time i gave it access, so i don't know why this is happening. Through the built-in browser, i can surf and download stuff properly, but no other application is getting access to the internet only!!
That is where Airtel takes us for a ride. Once you have GPRS activated then they send you the settings by am sms. These settings are for Mobile office, Airtel Live and MMS. Mobile Office is free under GPRS whatever plan you have. But for using Live and MMS you pay through your nose despite GPRS.
So, go to settings and delete the Airtel Live and MMS so thet even my mistake you do not use them. Use only Mobile Office.

Restore first the factory settings of your phone first and then ask for GPRS config settings from the network operator, check if it will work. If it doesnt work go to connectivity and delete all existing Access point.. then you retry.

related to this problem
in some sim card its preactivated gprs sevice available
you just hv to choose the correct access point.
for example : if you are using 'Idea Cellular' then the correct access point for gprs is 'IDEA INTERNET or IDEA FRESH ' you can check these settings by going WEB/SETTINGS.
IF ITS NOT PREACTIVATED THEN
just call your sim card service provider (customer care )
and ask them to activate gprs and mms service on your number
after getting activation
then on your mobile phone to to menu/web
now your can access any site on your mobile
and about mms it easy to use its just like using sms
To use GPRS on your phone you have to save the GPRS settings on your phone which will be sent to you as a configuration message by you network service provider.
to connect to the internet & to send & receive mms messages you
must activate the GPRS first from your network provider ...The best
thing you can do is to contact the customer care of your network
provider and ask for the activation of GPRS ... they will tell you the procedure to activate it .... they will tell the number to which the message to be sent to recieve the settings .... so note that down and then follow the procedures told by them ... you will receive the gprs settings(profile) also ... make sure of
the charges with them there will be many plans & then get activated
... after this you will able to connect to internet .... if
the customer people tell you that your handset is not compatible then
you must tell to give the manual settings(includes ip address,APN,etc)
so that you can only create the profile and input the information given
by the customer care people...
any further doubts reply me i am always here to assist you .. thank you bye...
to access internet from the k550i you have to have an active GPRS account
You should have the provision of GPRS from the service provider.
Once you activate GPRS from the provider... there will be a settings message that will be sent to you by the provider.. or you can take the settings from websites of the providers. like vodofone.com etc.
once you set your GPRS settings to the service provider's specification, you can connect to the internet thru GPRS / EDGE phone.
For setting the GPRS specifications manually you have to create a new "internet profile" in the "connectivity" in your phone menu... and change name, port, gateway...etc all these will be provided by the service provider in its site or will be sent as a message after GPRS activation.
