Assuming that you have configured it for the proper data connection account(GPRS or CSD).
Configure your email settings as follows:
Account name: [name you wish to call it. ie Yahoo]
POP3 server: pop.mail.yahoo.com
POP3 port: 110
Mailbox: [your log-in name]
Password: [your password]
SMTP server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
SMTP port: 25
email address: [your return email address]
From name: [optional]
That's it.

awww shucks, ibig sabihin ba non pag wala kong GPRS di wko pwede gumamit nung e-mail feature nung phone????
kasi prepaid lang ako eh.......
ang GPRS pang line....
Posted by GOwin
i think CSD is available to pre-paid subscribers. Not sure though, better call 211.
Posted by ferrarista44
i hope....
i'd like to go line na rin eh...
para may GPRS....
and all the other features a line subscriber gets that a prepayer doesnt....
sige, i'll check that with 211 ....
thanks dude.

I can help any Globe subscriber in MetroManila to configure their T68 for Wap, GPRS and Yahoo mail browsing. Customer service people at 211 don't always provide you with accurate infos because they have not used the phone extensively. At present, GPRS at Globe is still free of charge. You Can send SMS (even to other countries) free of charge and faster by GPRS. Yahoo mail can be sent and retrieved by Gprs or thru your dial up ISP.
Just post your celfone number and I'll get in touch.

Just curious. I'm a Pinoy in New York who just got a T68, configuring GPRS (iStream) to connect via Bluetooth on my iPAQ 3870 for internet surfing.
Is the T68 common in Pinas? Are people starting to do wireless internet on a Pocket PC the way I described.
So many advances in the Philippines -- how great!

sending SMS via GPRS
This is indeed possible with our phones but I am not sure if the SMS is still being deducted from the free SMS allocations.
If it is, then there really isn't any advantage sending SMS over GPRS or via SMSC. Kung may bayad na ang GPRS, doble pa ang nasingil sa 'yo. ( 1. deduct from SMS allocation or Php 1; 2. GPRS data charges.)

is that true! if u send sms thru gprs is free? is that confirm? im from philippines, right now im sending sms thru gprs, and it works fine...
Posted by GOwin
GPRS Don't get too excited, read my post again.
Posted by GPRS
hey GOWIN im not excited!!! in fact im using GPRS since JUNE 2001!!! and i confirm already that SMS thru GPRS is not free!!!
Posted by Beatrix
pag hindi ba naka GPRS hindi maka check mail for yahoo? i'm in manila but my i got my line from the province and hindi nila ako bibigyan ng GPRS kahit dito na ako sa manila nakatira.
Posted by arnoldc
Beatrix, you have two choices. a) GPRS Data or GSM Data. Difference is speed. I'm a heavy user of Smart's GPRS (kasi libre) and I can tell you that you can forget email via GSM data (which I also subscribe to, and pay) simply because it is tooooo slow @ 9.6Kbps. If your operator (don't know which one) has HSCSD, then it may be worth your while.

tol, nakapagsend ka pa ba ng SMS via GPRS? You are a Globe subscriber right? Ang alam ko kc ay di na'to possible dahil sa mawawalang income ng globe? When i try to send SMS via GPRS, palagi syang nagfail. Or there might something wrong with my settings? can you detect what's wrong with my settings? Salamat, pare in advance!!!
Posted by GPRS
wala namang problema when sending SMS thru GPRS! baka lang wala kang signal sa GPRS? san ba location mo? and besides pano sila malulugi e ganun din ang bayad. di naman sya free...
Posted by GOwin
GPRS
ganito yon:if you want to send SMS over GPRS then you won't have any need for the SMS center numbers. right? (syempre GPRS nga ang gusto mong gamitin eh)
Now, if you have set SMS access by GPRS and removed ALL your SMSC #s, and your _network supports SMS over GPRS_ - then you can send all the SMS you want.
Otherwise even if you set your phone to send by GPRS and your network doesn't support it, then it will go through the SMSCs - ergo, chargeable.
Kausap ko ang techies nila kagabi, ang sabi:
1) GLOBE doesn't support SMS over GPRS _yet_
2) I was mis-informed by the CS rep when they told me that I can send SMS over GPRS (not via SMSCs)
stay cool.

Excute GPRS, wala pang definite amount kung magkano ang charging for GPRS access sa Globe Telecom kaya as of today, Access via GPRS are still free of charge. Syempre kung magsesend tyo ng SMS via GPRS, that is totally Free. Do you get my point? Imbes na magbabayad tyo ng P1 kada SMS, nagiging free na ang bawat text natin dahil we used the GPRS access.

Thanks Gowin sa info, but before, I can send SMS via GPRS. Ang CS Rep kasi ng Globe ay wala namang alam yung mga yun regarding sa GPRS feature (GPRS via SMS). Kya I dont believe them na they still did not support the SMS via GPRS because I already tried it before.
Posted by GOwin
luwi
setting your phone to send SMS over GPRS doesnt mean that your network supports it.
i think the phone falls back to SMSC if it can't send your SMS by GPRS.
to test my theory. why don't you remove your SMSC numbers then try to send a message to see if you can send one. kapag pumalpak, that will prove that you're still sending via SMSCs.
i think the logic is simple: no SMSC, therefore SMS is suppose to use GPRS. pag ayaw, eh di confirmed that Globe doesn't support it.
ok?

GOwin, tnxs for the info. But i try to remove the SMSCs yesterday and I tried to send SMS via GPRS, I found out its okey. But my counter counts that text message. Before, I think last week of December, when I send SMS via GPRS, the SMS counter didn't count that text mssg., unlike now.
Posted by Beatrix
ey, pwede na ako GPRS.=) how to setup ba?
Posted by watdhek
can someone help me configure t68 gprs settings for smart. can i use this service even if im only a prepaid subscriber? do they charge the same amount for sms sending via gprs? thanks in advance
Posted by arnoldc
Please see my post about the Smart GPRS settings here http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=618&forum=14&0
If you're a pre-paid subscriber, you can't use GPRS.
SMS over GPRS for Smart does not work.

To LUWI:
When you get "FAIL" message upon gprs connection, either your account's gprs connection is not yet activated by telco or you're out of gprs coverage. You are not sending sms that time either, because it will fall back to sending via gsm and will not display the Fail message. Take note of the blue triangle on top of the signal bar.
To Beatrix:
GPRS settings for Globe:
1. Go to Connect> Data Conn>Data accounts, then Add accounts.
2. Choose GPRS Data, Name: GPRS(sample only),
APN: www.globe.com.ph, user id: none, password none
3. Set pref. service to GPRS and GSM
4. Set Sms access to GPRS (optional)
5. Go to Wap Services>wap settings then select any profile. Rename it Globe (sample only), you can leave homepage title and address as is (default is mobile internet), then Save To: current profile.
6. Choose Gateway> IP settings> Connect using: GPRS (or whatever you used in 2), IP Address: 192.029.102.103 ; User id: none, Password: none, Data mode: Connectionless
7. Leave the rest of the settings as is.
8. Go back to Wap Services> Select Profile> then choose Globe (or whatever you used in 5).
6. Make sure that gprs is activated (blue triangle) and don't forget to press NO after you exit your Browser to disconnect. You can check GPRS usage on Calls>Data counter.

TO: LUWI, GOWIN & GPRS:
SMS thru gprs really works at Globe. You can verify this by sending 2 identical messages to the same number successively (one with gprs & the other gsm) and observing the blue Message Sending status bar on your phone. With gprs activated (Connect>Data Conn> SMS Access)the blue bar scrolls just a little bit and the Message Sent prompt appears immediately. I noticed this because I travel all around Luzon and found out that SMS took so long to sent when there is no gprs signal (the blue triangle on top of signal bar) even though GSM signal is strong enough.
You can not really send SMS without the center number but that doesn't mean gprs never works. With gprs activated, your message travels from your phone thru gprs (instead of gsm's narrow bandwidth) to the telco's message center and sent out to your recipient either way depending on his settings. Since the SMS passes thru the Message Center, the telco can account you for that.
Whether GPRS SMS is deducted from allocation I think is conditional. I started using gprs last Nov. and noticed the charges on my int'l text dramatically reduced. I verified my latest bill at myglobe and found out it was backed to normal. I activated my wife's gprs (N8310) last month and the bill showed reduced sms.
My guess is (and it is only a GUESS), Globe allowed us to use free gprs sms for a certain period of time or number of text starting on activation.

gobrutz,
I noticed it also when sending SMS via GPRS is much(2x) faster(if there is GPRS signal,ok!) than sending SMS via GSM. tnxs.

Is it clear now? It is really possible to send SMS via GPRS. ok.

debate over SMS over GPRS support by GLOBE
1) off-topic na yata yung discussions natin dito. should we move the thread elsewhere?
2) shouldn't Globe's Tech Support be able to resolve this once and for all? I have called them up and I have received a negative answer. Why don't everyone try that and see what answers you got

Kung iisip nating mga subscriber ng "GLOBE", may okey pa na sariling sikap nalang iexplore ang lahat ng features ng t68 (ex. SMS via GPRS) kung possible ba tlaga to o hindi. Kasi wala talagang matinong isasagot ang mg 'customer service rep' ng globe telecom. Tinagurian pa naman silang CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE!!!! Wala naman silang masagot na tama. Ang role lang talaga ng mga yun ay magbigay ng running balance, etc... Basta may kinalaman sa ""MONEY"", siguradong tama ang sasabihin nila.
grrrhhhh........
Posted by GOwin
that is why I didn't call CS anymore, sabi ko nga diba i talked with Technical Support.
these are the techies who does the things in the back-end.
I have emailed my contact inside globe to inquire inquire on this, since she's a supervisor there I guess she'd know more or at least ask someone who knows more than the CS reps.
ciao
Posted by luwi
GOwin,
I forgot to include those under Technical Support Group. Wala rin silang matinong sagot. Ok.
I try to call them last month pa, to consult this problem, kaso the same answer ang nakuha ko katulad ng sa Customer Rep. Kaya they are totally the same....

TechSupport = CS reps? no way! Tech unfortunately, doesnt know how to communicate. CS reps doesn't know the answer if they dont have their kodigos with them

anyway, what was your problem when you called TechSupport?

Hi There mga kabayans!
I'm Pinoy working in Singapore, I'm using my GPRS for more 3 months now. Gusto ko sanang i-setup ang e-mail. Ang cell ko ay MobileOne pero I want to setup my e-mail sa kalabang network naman which is Singnet. Posible kaya ito. By the way nakapag WAP naman ako over GPRS ng walang problema and I actually attached my Singnet e-mail account sa MiWord(MobileOne WAP site) at nababasa ko naman, pero using MiWorld at hindi sa E-mail(Message)
Please help!
Thanks
Roberto
Mabuhay tayong lahat! madami na ding mga Pinoy na hindi Nokia ang phone
Nakakatakot maglabas ng cell sa Maynila inaagaw at hinoholdap pa, yung isang kaibigan ko who when home last December naagawan ng cell kahit na nasa tagun-tago na niyang sinagot ang tawag sa kanya. Ingat kayo diyan. Dito sa Singapore very safe kahit magtxt habang naglalakad.

thanks gobrutz! it's now working... is sending text thru gprs free?
anyway, any of you guys have a sony clie or any pda? how do you sync it or that you could surf or whatsoever...

Beatrix,
I surf/email/etc. on my Cassiopeia via T68. Send me a private message if you want information. If you're interested in doing it with a Palm OS device, GOwin would be the best resource yata.

To Beatrix:
You're welcome. I just want to help. You know, Gowin is right. We are getting out of the subject you started for with this thread. With due respect to everybody, I hope you can start a new thread on Technical topic about PDAs. Unless of course, you or anybody has anything else to say about the original thread subject.
To Luwi, Gowin, GPRS:
Gowin has started a thread on sms thru gprs, hope to read from you there.
To Gowin:
I have a private message for you, please read.
To all Kabayan Posters:
Luwi started a thread on Pinoy posters, hope to read from you there. We can discuss local matters (problems on Philippine setting).
To all participants to this thread:
My most sincere apology if this may sound impolite.

to all mga kabayan's! still we discussed about sending sms thru gprs! really our telco supports sms thru gprs. but they did not activate because "malulugi" daw sila.. talk to my friend from ericsson, another define ulit ang sim para gumana sms thru gprs...

the statement is misleading. It probably should be: "The Telco's equipment supports SMS over GPRS, but they have chosen not to implement[activate]it because "malulugi" sila
Got a chance to talk with a techie from Globe. Confirmed that their network is "ready" for SMS over GPRS but is not actually being implemented yet.
