I have an orange t68i, it has 3 gprs data accounts (GPRS WAP, GPRS Internet, MMS)
when i use WAP or GPRS Internet, the amount of data used is logged in the data counter,
however when i send mms, the amount of data sent/recived is not added to the data counter.
as i am now not charged for WAP, but am still charged for GPRS Internet, is there a setting i can change so that when i use the WAP data account does not store the amount of data sent/recieved?
Cheers,
Al.

Not sure about that. Question-do you pay for recieving mms? How much do you have to pay for a mms? Best regards! Peter.

@aled - it doesn't add the file sixe of the mms to the counter as you are charged per message sent with mms - not the amount of data you send

@orangeman- i realise this, but there must be a setting in the MMS data account somewhere which tells the phone not to store the amount of data transferred, it must therefore be possible to set the WAP account the same way (so it only logs data transferred over orange internet data account) |

I understand your question mate, and I've got a t68i so i will check. Do you use the NowMMS service? Because the guys who ork there are totally clued up on just about everything, so i'd send them an e-mail.
I'll keep trying too.
Cheers, JD.

Does anyone know what speed gprs wap will run at on the orange network (uk).
Just a quiery really doesnt seem much fast on my t68i using gprs against a 8310 using dailup.
I get to the home page quicker but after that it about the same time going round wap sites like esato.
I know that each network runs grps at diff speeds etc depending on users at any given time.
Also I dont expect to get a the top speed all the time but it does seem to be ruuning at about 9.6kps all the time.
Any wap test sites out there |
