need settings for 3 , gprs / mms etc

Hi

I was wandering if you can help me . I have a Sony Ericsson Z800 ( its a V800 but i have upgraded the software to the new Z800 via flash files etc etc ) . The phone works perfect with most 3g settings such a vodafone or orange . I have recently bought a £ pay as you go sim card and wish to use it in the sony ericsson . Everything works fine, i can make and recieve calls , txt but no 3g services .
Do you have the manual settings for 3 for mms and gprs as well as video calling ? i have the knowledge on how to input them into the phone but i just dont have them or know how to get them with out actually buying a 3 handset .

Any information would be great ,

Internet:
APN: three.co.uk

MMS:
APN: three.co.uk
Proxy IP 1: 217.171.129.2
Port 1: 8799

@toonfan - Have a read through this old posting https://talk3g.co.uk/showthread.php?t=857

You will need to pick the bones out of it to apply to the specific settings required by the V3x - but all that you need is in there with one exception.

3 use a specific homepage for each of their handsets, so for the V3 the "Browser" URL will be different to that in the above referenced post "http://mobile.three.co.uk/hb/lg/HutchKey". You may have some success playing around with the bit of the URL that says "lg" - try substituting v3x for instance (the URL for the Motorola E1000 is "e1000" so it may be as plain sailing as that).

If you do discover it, please share with us on here. Unfortunately I have not had hands on a v3x yet so cannot help much more than this.

HTH

3 are a pain when it comes to settings on phones. I was sent a Nokia N90 which i am now reviewing and when i try to load the browser it comes up with a page saying something was wrong and to try again.

So then i enter the EXACT settings for MMS and it wont work. it keeps connecting but then wont send.

Ignore my last post. I went onto the threrad that hands0n linked to last and entered the Proxy as text and it has now sent the MMS. Checked my email and its there all ready so i know MMS works

Hi There smart14 - welcome to Talk3g.

There are settings in the handset that simply do not need to be filled in so don't worry if you do not have all the info to correspond with each and every setting. Those in the link, although for an LG, will work for other handsets as it is limited info that is needed. I'll try and give you a starter here which has been lifted off a working Motorola A835 (checked against a Motorola E1000). What you may have to do is experiment a little with the Homepage URL - the "817" may need to be changed to v3 or v3x or somesuch, just tinker with it, or remove the number completely and see what you get.

-----------
Name: 3 (This should be set as the Default "Web Session" in your handset, most important!)
Homepage: http://mobile.three.co.uk/817/search
service Type 1: HTTP
gateway ip 1: 000.000.000.000

The next thing you need to do is to create a set of settings called "3 mms" and for that you'll need to enter the following detail. (Blank where nothing or is shown) - don't worry if some of the "2" settings are not on your handset:

Name: 3 mms
Homepage
Gateway IP: 217.171.129.002

Give that a try and let us know how you get on. I do not have a V3x myself to try this out - but the 3 network settings will be the same with the exception (perhaps) of any URLs that seem to be keyed to the individual handset.

hello!HandsOn,
thanks so much for ur help.....i follow the instruction given by u and eveything goes as plan and work perfectly...i now finally manage to browse the net and go to my 3 homepage.cheers! again many thanks!u really safe my day....n this forum is really informatic and useful...well done!
i have been quite frustrated ever since few days ago after got my v3x debranded and unlocked but found out that the browser didnt work.i did call 3 network service centre few times to seek their help but to my surprise and dissappointment they couldnt solve my problem and keep asking me to master reset my handset and finally ask me to visit 3 shop for my handset for repair.....i knew they r really talking rubbish and useless talk to them....the worst thing was they dont even know the web session settings when i ask for it....i couldnt believe they r so useless and yet acted like a professional......oh my goodness! since then i know i can never believe in them again n decided to seek help
in many forum and finally i got u here n problem was solved in just seconds after entering all the settings given by u....Cheers! again many thanks! im coming to the right place meeting the right person......hehe!

i have just try to send mms to my friend but unfortunately it didnt work...an error msg shown as the "browser setup is incomplete" ,i think perhaps the homepage coluum need to be filled up....can u help me further...thanks!appreciated that.....cheers!

Hello smart14 - I am glad that you found the settings worked for you for browsing, thats really great

It is indeed unfortunate that 3 could not help you with the settings, as many of the other mobile operators have this information readily to hand, or are able to send them to you as one or more SMS handset updates. For all the advances that 3 have made it is in this specific area that they are truly lacking - but then their Customer Service operation is [and always has been] their weakest point, their Achilles heel. The response that you got [from 3's CS] was entirely predictable I much regret to say. That said, the upside is that it gives us on these forums something interesting to do from time to time LOL

Reading your reply I realised that there is some more info you need to enter into the handset to make the MMS work.

There is one further place that you need to go to and make sure that the MMS service names are properly applied - that is in the Messages menu as follows:-

Go to Messages, Press Menu, then Message Setup, then MMS Message Setup, then Server Info, then Change, Then select the Current Server to be "3 MMS" (the profile you just created/edited previously) - a tick should appear by the profile name. Then Press Menu, Edit, check that the Current Server info is as follows:

Service Name: 3 MMS (which it will be, this is the profile name)
Server Name: http://mms.um.three.co.uk:10021/mmsc
Web Session Name: 3 MMS

That should get MMS working for you - the two profiles that we created earlier are the basis for this last piece of information to work by.

Please let us know how you get on with these. Good luck

Edit: The above menu steps are taken from a Motorola E1000 - you may find that your V3x menus are slightly different, but I'm hoping that they are not too off for you to adapt to your specific handset.

hi,HandsOn,
here im again....once again...i follow ur instruction given n now im able to send mms to my friend....it works really well in just seconds...wow! u r really helpful....many thanks again.....Cheers!
yes,i absolutely agree with u about the 3 customer service,they r so poor in technical aspect and i think they havent got enough training on that......

thanks again !

[Hands0n]

You are very welcome, I'm pleased that you have got your V3x working 100% again in Debranded mode.

Tell your friends about Talk3G

Hi i see you have got your mms to work on the v3x.
i have tried and mine wont work can you tell me how you done it please.
many thanks
eric

@toonfan - the above recent postings should get it all working for you. In particular you must use the exact Service and Web Session names that are defined in the MMS settings dialogue. Any changes or differences and it will not work properly, even if the browser and other stuff works. The names of each have to relate to eachother.

I suggest going over everthing posted in the above few which smart14 used to get his working and ensure that your settings and names match exactly.
