Hello, I wouldnt mind asking a couple questions on o2 3G.
I have a Sony Ericsson K800i sim free, I use my old Genie sim card in it (o2 online sim, 300 text and 1MB GPRS a month free pay as you go)
I have just had a USIM delivered and im having my number and credit transfered to the USIM.
I was wanting to ask, with o2 3G, is i-mode o2's word for 3G or is i-mode any different to 3G? Also, would you need any different settings for UTMS or are o2's GPRS and MMS settings the exact same?
Posted by richardlusty
i mode is a seperate internet portal, not connected to 3G and is only available on selected i mode compatible handsets. not the k800
Posted by Toney_Ericsson
i-mode is that dodgy flashing java style web pages isnt it? I remember viewing some i-mode sites years ago.
So what can I expect with a o2 USIM? has it got UTMS? Thats suposed to be faster than normal GPRS isnt it?
Also, will the internet and MMS settings be different with a USIM or the same?

imode only got launched late last year.....as said its different to the regular o2 active stuff.
replacement sims should be 3g ones...if not get them to send you a proper 3g one
Posted by Toney_Ericsson
It is a 3G one they have sent, i'm transfering my number and credit onto it. Hopefully will be done tommorrow sometime between 8am and 6pm (when someone can be bothered to press the button

hey toney, you wont need any different settings in your phone, everything will be exactly the same as before but it'll be faster (providing you have coverage of course, which you can check here http://www.webmap.o2.co.uk/ )

I phoned O2 yesterday afternoon to have my number transferred on to my 3G sim. He told me he would call me back when it was done.
1 hour later it was done.
Good work!

Basically what I was told was that I would gradually start losing signal and then wrong IMEI would appear on my phone screen. When I see that I should put the new USIM inisde and switch my phone off checking ever couple hours if its working by switching it on.
Well its 14:30 nothing different yet.

I have moved over to Orange 3G as O2 dont support email on payg phones - according to their technical department.
Orange say it will take 5 days.
Slightly off topic....
If I top up on my new Orange number, will that credit still be there when my old O2 number is transferred over onto my new Orange sim?
Posted by aminator
nope, to make sure it is, call them up asap so that they can transfer it to the new number.
Im working off o2 doings so cant vouch for Oranges policy

I did do my best to stay with O2 but I wanted to be able to email from my phone and also MMS blog pictures to an email address (operas blog site).
This wasn't supported unfortunately, although they did try their best.

goldenface they do tell customers pop3 is for contract only but it does work on pay as you go.
Listen to this, a o2 tech support bloke by the name of George gave me the settings. I got a new phone and forgot what the pop3 settings were so I rang o2 again. This was about 6 months later. A different tech support bloke was adament that pop3 is only for contract so I said "well not long ago George who works in you're department gave me them so whats the problem?" He said theres no George in his department, I continued to argue with him and basically at the end he said I shouldnt really be doing this but these are the settings and he told me what they were!
Bloody idiots they are - they just want you to take out a contract.
Would you suggest then that I should ring them up and ask when are they going to transfer my number as you said it was done for you in an hour?
Posted by Toney_Ericsson
Just rang o2, spoke to another chap. He said it hasnt been actioned yet. He said he will action it now and it should be done in an hour and to basically wait until my current sim fails befor eputting in my new USIM.
He sounded very fed up, not plesent speaking to customer service like that. Hope its done anyway.

don't know what the big secret is..ive been using email on my payngo phones with o2 for year's...infact, it's no secret at all...
Posted by Toney_Ericsson
I know, same as. Thats basically what I told him at the time.
Posted by goldenface
I believe you Toney_Ericsson...
.....but what I can't believe is O2 would rather give me my PAC code, and lose a customer in the process, rather than just give me the PAYG email settings, I mean, whats that all about?!
They must be off their rockers!
I spend at least £30 per month on PAYG!!!
Their loss anyway, is all I can say.

I have to say i didnt have any problems with O2. My sim was activated inside the hour, i guess its who you speak to.
When i ordered the upgrade they wanted to charge me £79.99 for the phone and increase my Tariff.
Inside 5 mins i got the phone for free with a £5.00 monthly decrease on my Tariff.
Posted by Toney_Ericsson
Yes it is a case of "its who you talk to" some of them dont know what they are doing I think, or limited in what they can do!
My USIM was working in an hour also after making that phone call again to o2.
If you wanted the o2 pop3 settings I could tell you them? but yes it is there loss. One thing about o2 pop3, they cant guarentee the service will work properly - I certainly have found this as sometimes it doesnt work for days. I was thinking then why should I take a contract out for a service they cant guarentee will work properly. That was somethingelse I said at the time to winkle out the settings from the person I was speaking to at o2.

just use another network if you have so many problems with o2 . it seems you have a bad attatude so they dont like speaking to you. personally i dont blame them. you do come across as a "BarbusMaximus" to me

Dolbe is a gay stalker from a rather pathetic site called wapoc.com where jobless billy no mates hang out, you should of seen how he was trying to slag Sony Ericsson off for not replacing a screen on a P910i that HE damaged himself.
Personally I dont blame Sony Ericsson for telling you what to do Dolbe
Try slagging Sony Ericsson off on this site see how far you get you little queer.
Mods on here may want to know he goes by the name of P910iGuy or P910iKing also hence why he used his other name Dolbe which as you can see was registered a long time ago but has only made a couple posts. This is his "doesnt care if he gets banned name".
Personally I'd ban all the oddballs names and send him packing back to that reject site.

er toney_ericsson (Adam) slander isn't very nice you know. it seems you just cant get over getting banned from wapoc can you. you poor boy. anyway ive got nothing against sony ericsson it wasn't their falt about my screen not getting replaced. it was ACR Logistics. i had my screen tested by a third partly repair centre and was found to be faulty. i got my monastery back and an apology from sony ericsson.
so are you still stalking me at wapoc under a different username then? i never could quite get rid of you, although i did get you banned 5 times heh.
oh and to the poster who said i was racist i don't know where you got that from, ive never said a bad thing about any race. im a firm believer of one race, the human race. all where created equally on this planet
Posted by DolbE
oops i never had a monastery stupid T9 was supposed to put money heh
Posted by Toney_Ericsson
Noones ever told him not to mess with people who he does'nt know^
What complete crap Darren you four eyed knob sucker. You were trying to get Sony Ericsson to replace the screen that you had damaged then started throwing you're toys out of you're pram because they would'nt under warrenty haha I find that very funny
Are you trying to say you're not a pikey what with all you're illegal software distribution on wapoc.com and distribution by mail? I'm sure you're isp and local police would be interested in you (esato mods feel free to private message me his ip address i'll do the rest). Even the owner of wapoc.com is a pikey and thats why I got banned because I grassed him up to his host as it is breaking his hosts terms and conditions to use there server space for that kind of illegal activites. I also informed the software companies whos software it was being distributed to which they black listed the serial keys making them useless and rightly so.
I got a nice reward for that information from the companies concerned on my own legitimate subscriptions extending them so cheers for that you little cyber criminal prick! haha
I'm quite suprised roberta (rob the tefal head knob head pikey) hasnt been sued yet. It's well known what his mummy and daddies address is by doing a domain search on wapoc.com, also I've been told what his mobile number is, theres little he can do to run away from the law should any company wish to prosecute him. All this information has been passed onto the companies whos copy righted material he has been distributing.
He'll need more than donations from fellow pikey site users to pay for a fine haha.
I'm still at wapoc.com by the way as I have several usernames and am the master of disguise so theres little you or rob"erta" can do about it.
I see you're running around like a headless chicken in various forums on crapoc making postings about me - how would I know that as apprently as you say I'm banned?, very amusing! ha
Dont even bother private messaging me you're crap via inbox on here you little prick - speak to the hand
Get a job you pikey scum. Also send roberta the tefal head window licker my regards as well as the other window lickers on the sun shine coach with dribble trays fitted to their seats on that oh so pathetic site.

oh stick your dummy back in you little grass. well atleast everyone on here knows not to trust you Now. smart move that was telling everyone here your an untrustable grass that would sell anyone out for a reward. oh btw if you're such a regular on wapoc you would know i do work, ive worked as a computer tech for ages now. and as for wapoc, if you hate it so much why cant you stop visiting the site? everyone has forgotten about you, you wasn't important or anything. get over yourself dude. as you did on wapoc your doing here also. your showing your true Nature. your nothing more than a spoilt litte immature boy. you couldn't get your way on wapoc and you wont here either.

Chill Dolbe,
I didnt mean no harm, but I was under the impression you were...
Toney Ericsson told me in a PM:
"...Dolbe is a racist and hates south africans. If you dont beleave me have a look on wapoc.com in the mobiles forum. His name on there is Trouble and a South African user on there is called AW0079. Have a look at what he says to him and then we're see if you think hes funny as he mocks africans all the time on there with his racist comments..."
Kwiksta
Posted by DolbE
ok well it seems your the victom of toney-ericssons lies. yes i do not like a person called AW0079. it is nothing to do with his race. everyone on that site including toney-ericsson knows its due to the fact he leaches of people for free software. the person in question once inboxed me and asked what software i had. i told him. his reponse was "i want it all, will you send it all to me?" that was greed, and i dislike greedy people.
toney-ericson is trying to stir up trouble, thats how he kept getting banned from wapoc.com. he has a habbit of causeing problems and his attitude you see in this topic is his typical personality.
the reason he dislikes me is because it was me that kept getting him banned. now he has a chip on his shoulder and wants to cause me to get banned from here.
as you can see he resorts to calling names, thats why i called him inmature.
Posted by Toney_Ericsson
Haha what a liar.
Free software? you mean illegal copy righted software you thief.
You're just a lying pikey, thats all that too it.
View them forums and see how he harrasses AW0079, that says it all. Theres no difference between AW0079 and any of them other pikeys there at crapoc so why does he harrass him.
As I said, I'm sure the companies whos software you are distributing around the country by mail would be very interested in you as well as you're isp as you're illegal activities are breaking you're isp's terms and conditions as well.
People like you are scum and deserve heafty fines.

say what you want adam, its only words. i know your a lier ans so does a few hundred members of wapoc. i never sell people software so its not considered distributing. learn your leagal terms idiot. its called file sharing and i dont do it anymore, i havent for years.iven so its not illegal if i dont make any profit. infact i lost money because i payed the shipping costs. and you really need to stop calling people racist, its slander and im sure there are rules about it here. i think i shall be checking into it. maybe i will just get YOU banned for slander and purposely causeing trouble in forums.
you really need to grow up. your atleast 26 now right? well dont you think you should start acting like an adult? at the end of the day your just showing yourself up, calling names, lies and slaander. dont you have one decent thing about yourslef?
well you can continue to rant and call names, the people at wapoc are loving it. i link them to this forum topic just so they can see you havent changed one bit
