Hi, I recently purchased the K800i and am having a heck of a time setting up the mms. I'm on fido and I've been sent the settings but alas after manually entering them I'm still without mms functionality. I've tried the SE website, but despite numerous attempts at using their configurator page, I haven't been sent the settings and it frustrates me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

I am Canadian & just stumbled upon this thread here.
I am a SE-K700 user thinking of buying a SE-K810i the latest in the series.
Just found a few sources to buy in Canada & the links with prices are as follows:
Please let us know if any one has actually bought from these sources & Happy with them.
The cheapest is from Hi-Mobile – US $ 362.00
http://www.hi-mobile.net/Sony[....]Ericsson-K810i-Fully-Unlocked/
Then from Markways - CAN$ 499.99
http://www.markways.com/detail/653/Sony_Ericsson_K810i/
Also from Pure Mobile - CAN$ 502.0

I can CONFIRM that Hi-Mobile.net is a TRUSTED source! I've purchased from them before and will again shortly when the W580 Black & z760 comes in stock.
Do a WHO IS search on the company name and you'll SEE they're LEGIT!

Hey fellow Canadians
Does anyone know of another forum/post (or any website for that matter) that explains in detail how to use the GPRS of the phone on a laptop, either through the service cable or blue tooth. I guess I should mention I use the W810i and Rogers is my carrier
Thanks for any info |

There is plenty of info about that right here. If you do a good search something will come up.

Hey Punks!
A Waterloo, Ontario born Vancouverite here.
I just switched to Rogers Wireless here in Van-City, and purchased a shiny new unlocked SE-K810i. Trouble is, since it's unlocked, none of the MMS settings are inputted into the phone.
The SE website has a MMS setup wizard, but it's not working and I'm not receiving the text message installer from them. Text messages work fine on my phone, so I think it's their server.
Anyhow, I've called Rogers Wireless AND SE to ask how to set it up, either of which really didn't help (to an extent).
Rogers sent me text messages of the settings, but I'm not sure how I go abouts putting them into my phone, as I have to create profiles everywhere and link the profiles and whatnot.
So any fellow K810 users know how to setup the MMS through the menus?
Here are the settings that Rogers sent me:

Ignore & delete what Rogers sent you. First is the K810 an 850Mhz capable device? If not you just lost out on EDGE as EDGE on Rogers is restricted to 850Mhz (very VERY few towers across the country use 1900Mhz for EDGE), sorry.

Hi,
I just started using my iPhone on Fido (unlimited plan). Love it.
One thing doesn't work: voicemail notification SMSs. Apparently bec they are short codes and iPhone has trouble dealing with this?

In connection with your wireless data service, a Data Early Cancellation Fee (DECF) also applies if, for any reason, your service is terminated prior to the end of your plan's commitment term (Data Term). The DECF is the greater of (i) $ or (ii) $ per month remaining in the Data Term, to a maximum of $ (plus applicable taxes), and applies in addition to the ECF for termination of your service agreement. If you subscribe to a plan combining both voice and data services, both the ECF and the DECF apply.[/colour]

Hey! I recently unlocked and debranded my SE k850i. I'm currently running on the 037 firmware, which is running well thus far. I purchased and the phone from Rogers - now that I've debranded, all of Rogers applications are gone. No vision or rogers browser. Is there anyway to get these features back?
Can anyone provide assistance with setting up WAP and MMS on my SE k850i?
I've read the posts above, but I don't quite understand what to do...
