Hi.
Does anyone know the settings to send the pictures from an MCA-10 camera using a T65 and GPRS?

I've read the manual many times and I've tried some combinations but I don't get it to work. Can someone help me out?


Thanks in advance.

You will need to store the pictures in my pictures and then send them by mms. Only disadvantage is that the quality suffers. Or create a web album and directly send them there. But this never worked with my phone

But my T65 doesn't have support for MMS, so the only possibility is to send it using either the phone as a modem or use the gprs. I would prefer the gprs since it's cheaper, but in order to do that I need the correct settings.

It may be possible to send them as an email attachment

Yes that's what I thought, because since I can't use the MMS function I have to send it as an attachment. But I'm pretty sure that I can use the GPRS settings as it is on my phone, but I need to activate something on the ISP settings to make it work, anyone have a clue?

Put T65 and MCA together. Then is a menu asking questions: the ISP must be *99#!

From the MCA-10 FAQ at www.sonyericsson.com

Which GPRS networks does the CommuniCam support?
The CommuniCam supports GPRS networks that don't require authentication.

I have a GPRS subrscription that doesn't require authentication. How do I configure my CommuniCam?
If you have such a subscription you need to set "none" as authentication method. To do this you need to scroll to settings in your phone, Yes, data comm., Yes, data accounts, Yes, select the account that will be used, Yes, edit, Yes, authentication, Yes, none, Yes. Below you find what other settings you need to do;

"If you have entered GPRS settings for a data account in your phone, you can transmit these settings to the camera automatically by entering *99***, the CID number and # instead of the ISP phone number. In this case, you should enter the user name and password that you are using for GPRS data account. CID is a number which identifies a data account. You can find the CID number by exiting the camera menu and then scrolling to Settings, Yes, Data comm., Yes, Data accounts, Yes, select an account, Yes. It may for example, say CID=1.


What do I need to e-mail images via my mobile phone?
You need a subscription that supports data transmission and Internet services.

The big thing here is that the GPRS account does not require authentication. For my own GPRS authentication (Telia in Sweden) the authentication is set to "Normal" and not to "None". So I knew not to bother with the MCA-10.

Check with your Network provider.

I hope this helps,
