i recently got a Vario III from T-mobile its been unlocked to any network and now i have an O2 UK sim card in it. The problem i have is that i can not send any mms messages. I asked O2 to send me the settings. They said they'll have to send by e-mail. 2 settings were send to me one for internet which works fine and the second one was for mms. Unfortunately the second setting was an instruction to click on a button that is only availible on their XDA stellar. I repeatly asked for O2 mms manual settings but they kept sending me the same thing. I resorted to keying my own settings in that i found on the web.
Under mms settings server tab.
Server name: O2UK
Gateway: 193.113.200.195
Port number: 9201
Server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connects via: o2 (The internet settings which works fine)
Send limit: 300k
WAP Version: WAP 2.0
Even with these settings i am still unable to send or recieve MMS messages. I suspect the icon button that O2 are asking me to click on is a cab file thats stored on the XDA Stellar maybe this cab file is my solution?
Any help would be welcome.
9 months ago I upgraded from a Mini S to a Trion. The Mini S didn't have the correct settings in it, so I had to install them manually.
However, I never managed to get it completely right. Sure they worked, I could receive and send MMS messages, then I found that it was going over the "wrong" connection and was costing me both messages and data, so do watch out for that one.
On my new Stellar, it does seem to be working with no side effects, although it switches from one thing to another to send MMS messages. I'll try and copy out the data I have on mine. If you need more, do ask...

Hopefully all that makes sense if you work through it.
"My ISP" are the internet settings are that I use to browse the web. "My Work Network" appears to be O2's WAP settings and is used to send MMS messages, so it looks like you might need to use it for that.
I'll also have a look and see if I can find the cab you were on about.
I hope that helps.
Please forgive the double post, I expected it to take longer to find.
I honestly don't know what each of these do, but they are all the cabs I found in /windows. I am assuming the smaller ones are the actual configurations themselves and the O2 Custom thing is the application that will install everything else. The "plugin order" cab file makes me wonder if this also has a bunch of today plugins attached to it, but I honestly don't know (I haven't hard reset without installing the extRom and have not used any other WM6 devices).
Does WM6 come with a bunch of today screen plugins for things like running programs etc... ? (ie beyond dat/time, calendar, tasks and messaging). Before this I only used WM5, so I don't know if you're going to get a bunch of extra today plugins tagging along (they aren't *bad*, they're just pointless if you read these forums as you'll no doubt either get better for free or have bought something like Mobile Shell).
Let me know how you get on.
Thanks for your help. I aligned all my settings to the same as yours but made no progress what happens is the message tries to send and is placed in the outbox but never succeeds. So I had a look though the cab files you kindly uploaded, the only file that looked like it maybe the one i need is MP_MMS4.0_O2UK_POSTPAID_Kaiser_070809.cab. So i ran it from my memory card the result was not good. the mms doesn't even go to outbox now. hehe. oh well i could always restore the rom and maybe stick to a t-mobile sim card if a want to send mms. unless you have any other suggestions?
Am i the only person trying to use a Vario III with a O2 sim? Surely there are others but i guess mms messages aren't a function people use that often.
The following page on the O2 website allows you to have the settings sent direct to your phone as an SMS:
http://getsettings.o2.co.uk/ServeSettingsWebApp/
I'm not an O2 user, so don't know if this works or not. Sorry if you've already tried this.

Hang on, you on payasyougo? Am fairly sure they have different usernames and passwords, access points etc.....
Try again as above, but with the following change in the relevant section.
"My Work Connection" -> Manage Connection
Name "O2 Active"
Modem Cellular (GPRS, 3G)
Access point payandgo.o2.co.uk
Username payandgo
Password (Probably "password" again)

Servers -> "Use server assigned addresses"
The "My ISP" settings will also probably need to be changed, but you said you had that working so I shall assume you know more about that than me.

On top of this you need to go through a specific proxy as follows:
HTTP: 193.113.200.195 Port 8080
WAP: 193.113.200.195 Port 9201
Secure WAP: 193.113.200.195 Port 9203
Socks: 193.113.200.195 Port 1080
Also a note, I wasn't able to get MMS working untill I Flashed to Dutty's WM 6.1 Hybrid ROM

Good shout. My phone keeps setting my HTTP and socks proxy to 127.0.0.1 in order to match the desktop computer (stupid, stupid activesync) so I had ignored it. I didn't realise there were more settings in there that could be relevant.
It seems the very important ones are the WAP and secure WAP proxies (which activesync doesn't seem to be configured to break). Mine are set to the values given by Audio.

Unfortunately O2 can't send mms settings to kaiser and probably not any phone that uses WM6 but it was worth a try. thanks
Cavey: I'm on contract with o2 so the initial settings you gave me should work but doesn't. i've tried keying Audio's proxy settings in too, but still no luck. I also restored the phone to its factory settings then re-keyed all the settings in, the result is still negative.
As you mentioned, O2 are charging for the unsuccessful attemps of sending mms. I have 500 sms but 1 mms = 4 sms. i'm running out fast so i think i'll give it a rest for not until my allowance resets.
Maybe i'll follow in Audio's tracks and install a Dutty rom. only had the Vario III for less than 1 month though and know very little about flashing the rom on this phone.
Cheer's for everyone's help for now.
FINALLY!!!!!
I can send and receive mms on my (unlocked) t-mobile TYTN III using an O2 sim card. All of Cavey's setting were right the only difference is I had my phone flashed by T-mobile from wm6.0 to wm6.1
I was having alot of trouble with the phone as i was no longer a T-mobile customer hence the O2 sim card, they were reluctant to do and repairs for me, but the phone was still under 1 year so definately under their warranty.
For those interested in the problem i was having. All i had to do to cause the phone to crash was do a hard reset via the little hole at the bottom of the screen. The problem then arise.
-only be able to make 1 call before i need to reset again
-screen won't tilt when i slide out keyboard.
-if any event starts the phone vibrating it wouldn't stop vibrating till the battery runs dead
Solutions:
-don't do a hard reset (not always possible) plus the problem can randomly occur.
-hard reset the phone whilst charging
If anyone fall under the circumstance whereby they are no longer under contract with T-mobile, but the phone is still under warranty. Tmobile will have to honor it. Receipts will help you prove this. They'll say things like its impossible to send your phone to repair, because you don't have a t-mobile number for them to setup the repair form, but it can be done. They'll have to assign a PAYG sim (provided by the shop) to the phone. That's basically it.
Anyway after all that i have a new rom and it accepts the mms settings that cavey posted for me. Been such a long time my O2 contract is almost up and I'm looking at new phones.
Thanks to Cavey, Audio and fisha21

Did anyone successfully get T-MobileWeb to work on the Tilt to get internet access? I am able to send/receive email but cannot get PIE to connect tot he internet. I've setup the usual T-Mo proxy setting but is there another proxy in PIE somewhere? Is it an issue with PIE connecting through a WAP port?
Thanks.

I think therefore I am.... confused!!!
you need to search forums for tilt tmobile, thats what i had to do..how are your MMS working out... i cant get mine to work after i changed my proxy to get the $5.99 hack... i am thinking i might have to get the data plan.. let me know if you get it working...
these are the settings i am using;
Under Modem,Edit, needs to be wap.voicestream.com
under Proxy the setting needs to be, see below;
This network connects to internet, network uses a proxy server to connect, box need to be checked.. 216.155.165.50, then under advance
216.155.165.50 port:8080
216.155.165.50 port:1901
216.155.165.50 port:1901 or 03 worked for me
sockets, need to be blank
guys, i was able to get both working, however, not on the stock at&t tilt rom. first to get the mms working, i just went to settings-connections-connection setup, and let it setup ur settings for tmobile usa. this will not allow your mms to work. now go to the connections and modify the settings for the 5.99 plan (i posted the exact settings a while back, search for it).. all u pretty much gotta do is add the proxy. good luck
omar
ps..if ur using the tilt rom, i never got the mms working, and wasnt able to access the internet on the 5.99 plan. on the 19.99 plan worked fine tho

The only differences is instead of wap.voicestream.com, its:

And instead of ports 9201 its 9203.
i did try those settings...(that is what they are set to now) my internet has no problems, but my MMS does not... so i cant understand the prob!
I've tried all the settings provided by we3zy but still can't get it to work. In PIE, it kept on saying "opening..." and then came back with the following error:
Error 502 - Bad Request
The server could not resolve your request for url: /
Any thoughts?
- Thanks.
OK, got it to work with accessing internet and email by adding a modem setting. However, I have to switch the two connections depending on which function I need.
Under Setting, Connections, Advanced button, Select Networks...I need to do the following:
In the Network Management screen I have a few choices but only the two settings in the top choice (Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using: ) need switching. When I click on to select the choices, I have setup one for accessing the internet and another to get email.
Is this normal or am I the only one that have this issue? Its kind of annoying to keep on switching the setting for the functions. Any way to combine the two connections or have the device auto choose and connect automatically?

I really can't explain why your getting that problem. But visit www.yahoo.com and then visit google.com again. I had that problem on the iphone, don't know why.
Make sure you've checked:
use software compression
use ip header compression.
and all ports are 9201
the settings above worked to get ny internet browser up i am currently on google with the original at&t rom now im gonna check my emails and weather plug ins

They are all checked. I changed all ports to 9201 even the http and now when i open pie it says
"You do not have access rights to this site

Also it adds "wsp://" in front of any link i type in the browser. Maybe you didnt mean change the http port to 9201 but i gave it a shot. are you guys and XXwindowsXX using the 5.99 deal? and it works?
email routing issue + cannot download TM's w/ pics
Hi All ~~
It sounds like I may have found the right msg board! I am a T-Mobile customer using an unlocked AT&T phone with the original ROM (minus the bloatware). I currently have three msging accounts on the Tilt: text msging, a hotmail account and a work email account (which I check via Outlook on my PC). I am having two annoying problems:
(1) I keep getting TMs saying that I have received an email on my work account; however I cannot (a) get the text msg notifications to turn off, nor (b) get the emails to actually pull down into the account. So: I know I have a work email (even who from), but cannot read it. Any thoughts on how to resolve either or both of these issues?
(2) I cannot receive or send pic text msgs. Really annoying; I am curious to see how other T-Mobile Tilt users have their settings arranged for this.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide ~~ Kim
TYTN/Hermes settings?
These settings in post four, would they be the same for the HTC TYTN/Hermes as well? After going into cnections, I notice that there isn't anything called connection settings. Just add new modem conection, proxy settings etc. I'd really like to be able to get this T-Zones up and running on my Hermes as well.
Thanks,
Cristobal

Yes, it should be. You'll need to add a new modem connection and edit the proxy settings. PM me if you can't get it to work and I'll try to help you.
Tilt Solution To Force Http Instead Of Wsp On Tmobile
Our good friends at ATT have two cab files in the \windows folder which install and remove a hidden proxy. By default, it funnels through the proxy.
BAD ATT!
If you are using T-mobile's 5.99 gprs plan and the HIDDEN proxy is enabled, all traffic will be routed through the hidden proxy and you will be forced to WSP:// pages. This will effectively lock you out of many of the sites that do not support the WSP protocol. Other carriers (Orange?) may be doing this too to drive WSP traffic.
To correct the problem, go to the windows folder and
1. run the restoreHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab
2. and then run the removeHiddenProxy4CWS_0522.cab file
3. Close your data connection and restart it. If you don't know how, just press the reset button.
After this is complete install the standard T-mobile GPRS settings and you should be in good shape. If you need a cab for t-mobile, search the board for the most current one or PM me. I keep one handy too.

try this:
server name: call it whatever you want
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 8080
Server address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Connect via: whatever you called the server name
Sending limit: 300k
WAP version: WAP 2.0
make sure you set this MMS server as default
The 5.99 plan requires a proxy. No exceptions that I'm aware of. The good news is that I've not found a page that I cannot browse. The speed isn't stellar, but quite acceptable. Additionally, since the power requirements for GPRS are low, I check email every 10 minutes.
There are a series of CAB files floating around here somewhere that have all the correct settings for each of the Tmo plans.
Same phone also ulocked for T-mobile Final solution
I suggest that you start afresh (Hard reset your phone)
then go to this link and download the cab
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1521768&postcount=70
download this cab
tmobyjoe599.cab
I had the same problem as you but that worked for me and im sure it will work for you.
Oh before i forget make sure that you disable automatic wireless configurator, that stuff is crap.
p.s note to be a pain in the ass. Next time search the forum even google will lead you to the answer of your question.
OK, my 8525 used to do this very well. I just got a tilt and installed several roms and they all did the same thing (duty, ATT org., and DCS) when I setup an email for a yahoo account and try to sync it says it cannot connect under these settings. But they are the default settings for att. I also checked with att and my settings are all correct. I was using the 1.58 radio now I'm starting to use 1.64 to see if that works any better. I don't know if this is a radio issue or whatever but I really need help att support isn't doing anything so I'm turning to you guys. (btw I've reset everything many many times getting the same error too)

Did you not learn anything from your 8525....?
You need to provide more info if you want help.
Start by creating a signature summarizing your device's set up.
Default is not always default....keep this in mind!
I don't know what data plan you have but I'll start with this:
Start > Setting > Connection > Connection > Advanced > Select Networks > In the Drop down box...you probably have Media Net, Try ATT Wap or vice versa.
This all I can do for you because you failed to provide more info. Based on the radios you've tried, I'm assuming you're on WM 6.1. Also, you need to address this issue in the thread of the Rom you're using.
You've said also that this issue repeats on several Roms.....What are you using to configure your Network settings?
Either Network Config or your cab file is not working properly you. You may have to manually input your settings. They are located around here somewhere or google it.

I'm sorry I thought I was providing enough info. I used the network config ROM that was built in to most of the windows 6.1 ROMs but I also used the "default" settings from att. (I ment defauld because that is what att shipps)
But if you want more info here is my network settings
When I first hit "connection settings" I have in bold "MY ISP" and "My Work Network"
if you go to manage "MY ISP" it has the config for att's isp. here are the settings:
Access Point Name: isp.cingular
UserName: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
(also set to use server IP)
_________________________________________________________________
Under the "Advance" tab I have 3 choices for each drop-down menu they are "My ISP" (which is selected for the top "programs automatically connect to the internet"), "MEdia Net", and "My Work Network" (which is selected for "programs that automatically connect to a private network)
the "MEdia Net" settings are as follows (and I have switched between using ISP and MEdia net in the drop down menu for internet and get the same problem)
Access Point Name:wap.cingular
User Name: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
(also set to use server IP)
_________________________________________________________________
I hope that is enough info like I said earlier my roms is currently DCS v1.7 and I'm running radio 1.64 as a side not it doesn't seem like my GPS is working correctly since it hasn't found a lock in 5min. But I think I've found the thread to help me with that. Again I'm having trouble with only syncing my e-mail althouth internet works just fine
I'm in your boat too. I have the same settings but under media net. I read one place to use the username and password you have but ATT says to leave blank and then run some cab file for proxy info. (I didn't do that) So far it has the exact settings you have, my PIE works and everything. Just can't send receive mail.
At this point though, mine just says connecting, and then asks me to verify my username and password, then I get ..
"Messages cannot be downloaded to your movile device. Make sure you are connected and that your email account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again. "
I've tried 2 different email addresses..

I've tried 2 different email addresses..

that's actually the first time I heard something about proxy settings. Where is that cab just in case (I'm willing to try anything)
I didn't use that cab but I did try Cingular PDA MediaNet MMS Settingsv2.cab
it should be attached.
EDIT
I know what solved my problem, paying a past due bill.
Problem Solved
OK, one piece of info that I didn't realize was important was that I am on the unlimited MEdia Net plan (which uses WAP.CINGULAR.COM) and the PDA plan, which is way more expensive uses ISP.CINGULAR.COM apparently I needed to change any network that was WAP and change it to ISP to get my pda to use things that I guess are usually covered in the PDA Data plan.
Thanks for your help everyone and I hope this can be used for someone else as well. long story short.....
media net=wap.cingular
pda plan=isp.cingular
Hi,
I have just purchased a web browsing bolt on for my O2 pay and go account. When I tried to get settings from O2 I was told by them that they have no settings for HTC mobiles - in fact that they didn't support any HTC models. Is this true or are any of you using 02 P&G to access web and email on the Diamond?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Richard
Its true! I cannot receive and send MMS and there is no GPRS conection.
O2 suxx! I'm going to change the operator.
Tesco Mobile do not have any problems with HTC
I am running my Diamond fine with GPRS etc on O2.
Also there are several O2 bundle deals for Diamonds at Expansys (http://www.expansys.com/nc.aspx?i=163250#o2).
When I set up my Diamond it offered an auto-configure settings after first booting which included O2 even though I bought this as standalone sim and contract free from play.com.
ACtually - not sure it will work with Pay & Go - didn't see that bit.
O2 connection settings are here BTW:
http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
I am with o2 on simplicity, I also have the internet bolt on, didnt have to confirgure anything, it downloaded my settings (auto config) and havent had to do a thing. Upgraded firmware to Elite 3 and exactly the same. GPRS EDGE HSDPA all work fine and dandy. I'm in the uk and loving the combination.
Is there any way to run the auto-configure again without a hard reset?
Thanks,
Richard

They "don't support" HTC because they sell them under XDA name And o2 in Germany already got XDA Diamond.
Sorry to bump this, just got a Diamond, Im on o2 PAYG (UK)
Tried loads of the settings being banded about online.....
I can access o2's website on the Diamond but nothing else.
Im seriously considering changing provider, but.... I have £75 credit and its been my number for years, I like the extras I get with o2 (texts, rewards etc.)
Has anyone on UK o2 PAYG got it working?
Regards
After weeks of messing I managed to get a friends PDA working on O2 UK PAYG GPRS full internet not just O2 crap its all in the proxy setting i will get them off him and post later.

There is a way to fool the server into connecting to the web via the WAP APN. Possibly O2 have 'fixed' the workaround, possibly not. It may be worth a try! Be aware that this was published for a previous version of WM, but the settings ought to be similar still:
To setup the XDA on PAYG for internet:
Go to Settings, click on the Connections tab & click on "Connections"
In the first dropdown, "When needed, automatically connect to The Internet using these settings:" select "New..." and give the connection a name (Mine's O2 Wap)
On the "Modem" tab, click on "New..." to create a new modem specification. Give the specification a name (Mine's O2 PAYG GPRS). For the Modem selection, use Cellular Line (GPRS) and set the Baud Rate to 57600 and click on Next.
For the Access point name, use payandgo.o2.co.uk and click Finish
Next, click on the Proxy Settings, and put a check in both the boxes & click Advanced.
Use the following server addresses & ports:
HTTP: 193.113.200.195 port 8080
WAP: 193.113.200.195 port 8080
SOCKS: 193.113.200.195 port 1080 (not sure if this works as I've never had to use it)
OK your way back out to the today screen and launch Internet Explorer
When launching any website for the first time, you'll be asked for a username, password and domain.
Username: payandgo
Password: password
Domain: <empty>
Cheers Tim, that'd be fantastic.
Johnston4111 - Ill give that a shot shortly - menues are pretty similar.

Looks like it worked, you can set the username and password in Proxy settings on the Diamond Menaing no need to enter it at first connection.
This will use my bolt on. correct?
BTW, THANKS!!!!
As far as i know it does.
If not you'll soon notice your credit evaporating.

yep it just uses your bolt-on my mates been using these settings for 3 months now with no problems.
Tim
Yeah, bolt on.
Are you lot able to use Remote Desktop? I cant use Live services, Youtube or RD.
This close to taking a contract out with another provider that suport this phone
XDA Ignito is listed as a future handset on O2 UK intranet - all I can say.
So yes, we do support it.
I've got a Diamond and can use picture messages and the internet as well as Live Messenger and Youtube. I don't use RD but I presume it'll work.
I'm on a staff simplicity tariff with the unlimited web bolt on and it all works fine.
Care to share details? do you have different logins?
Youtube loads but videos dont play, I get a synchronisation failed error on Windows Live.
Connection name: mobile web
Modem: Celluar Line (GPRS, 3G)
Access point name: mobile.o2.co.uk
Username: O2web
Password: password
Those work for me, create a new connection in Connection settings. The auto setup tool did it all for me though.
That works for you as you are on a contract.
You won't get wlm etc... on the wap work around on pay as you go. Not sure about remote desktop but i guess it's all related to the proxy.
Remote desktop and messenger both use secure connections so how about trying entering 193.113.200.195 in the WAP Secure section in proxy and try it the following ports numbers 8080,9201,443.
Its only a guess but worth a try I think

AT&T Tilt won't connect to GPRShttp://forum.xda-developers.com/newthread.php?do=newth
I've been having problems getting my unlocked AT&T Tilt to connect to T-Mobile's GPRS data network. I've done the necessary connections setups, including entering the proxy server settings (216.155.165.050:8080, etc) as well as running the disablehiddenproxy .cab in the Windows folder, but it just won't connect. And, when it appears to have connected, I can't access any websites. Every attempt simply ends up with an error message with something like 0x8008000. Google Maps won't work either, so the issue isn't limited to PIE.
I've entered the same settings on multiple phones in the past, including two HTC phones (Dash and Wing), so I know I didn't mess up on any obvious settings. I don't know what could be wrong. Has anyone experienced this before, and if so, what did you do to fix it?
Thanks.
Anyone? So far still no dice. WiFi works, though, which I guess is something...
EDIT: Nevermind, I think I got it. Apparently I needed to clear the SOCKS proxy setting. It's news to me, as I didn't need to do that before on either the Dash or the Wing.
Anyway, if anyone else is having the same problem, here are the instructions (specific to the proxy settings) I found and followed to get it working:
Go to set up proxy server
Check box that says “this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet”
In the proxy server type 216.155.165.50 (you might want to highlight and copy because you will be using this setting 3 more times)
Tap advanced
Tap HTTP (if the server is not filled out paste the proxy settings in the step above in the server box) and change port from 80 to 8080 then hit ok.
Tap WAP and paste or type the same proxy server (216.155.165.50). The port should automatically say 9201. Leave this as is, then hit ok
Tap secure wap and paste or type in the server settings from the last 2 steps. The port should say 9203. Leave as is as well and hit ok
Tap Socks and clear the server setting. The port should go away. Hit ok, and you're done.
For past 2 months I was successfully able to get my 4 (Exchange, Yahoo, Gmail) accounts working but for past 5 days I cannot get emails accounts like Yahoo or Gmail to connect using Medianet.
I even tried manually imported the Medianet settings using CAB file from XDA.
I have gone through following ROMs in the last 5 days.
STOCK AT&T
Phoenix III
DJ Koa
Jack's V2.6 Lite
In flashing to each new ROM I ensure flashing to stock followed by radio and then the new ROM.
The Exchange ActiveSync connects fine but Gmail and others work for a day using the automatically discovered Medianet and then show an error.
Unable to Conenct using Existing Connections.
I am going nuts trying to figure out what changed. Any advise would be appreciated.

As far as I am aware of AT&T has not changed the settings at all. It may be something in your area. Have you tried calling att to see if they are having issues in your area?
Mine work
I use Media Net on my phone too, but I don't have Exchange set up. I only use POP3 for Yahoo and Hotmail and the both work. I'm not sure but would assume Gmail would work too as long as it uses IMAP or POP3. I did a quick search and brought this up and it seems to be pretty much how I have mine set up. One difference though, I don't configure or select the proxy server, I leave that blank.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-362586.html
Problem Fixed
I started searching the forums with the error message and came across this gem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359139
Advanced tab
Selecy Networks
Click the drop down, Media net should be fine
Now hit that drop down and goto my isp
And you have to change the APN to wap.cingular << CHANGED FROM ISP.CINGULAR in My ISP keeping the rest of the settings the same
then on the username/pass screen
username: [email protected]
password: CINGULAR1
domain leave blank and hit OK
and VIOLA!!!
Back in business
So it turns out changing ISP.CINGULAR (default Medianet settings in ROMs) to WAP.CINGULAR in ISP settings was what was needed.
Thanks to everyone for your suggestions.
Happy and Exhausted,
Gurvinder Singh
In your Settings>Connections screen click on Connections, then click on the Advanced tab. Change your Select Networks to use "MEdia Net" as opposed to "My ISP". The settings have not changed since Cingular, probably because there are too many customers to notify of the change. Also, when you click Edit... after selecting "MEdia Net" from the drop-down, I have "This network connects to the Internet" checked, but the proxy server check-box cleared. I could not get my POP3 email with it checked. You can also check your GPRS Settings. Mine is on PAP authentication. I don't know if changing it will help, but just a thought.
that fixed it for me
I was having the same problem described. I unchecked the proxy button and now it connects. thanks
