I've tried going to sonyericsson and the settings they sent me was for the WAP not GPRS. And T68 wasn't on the phone option list... |

WAP set-up is almost similar to GPRS setup. Of course, meron ka pa ding papalitan - yung sa data account to use
Kahit wala yung phone mo doon, choose T39 or R520. |

@westice
how's the GPRS setup going?
if all the settings fail, you've probably got a defective phone. have it checked by your dealer. |

I don't think it's my phone... I tried my friend's phone it wasn't also working properly... I keep on checking the status indicator and keep getting the same message... "GPRS: GPRS not allowed"... By the way, what does that status indicator have to say when the GPRS is working properly?
What is the CID=1 mean on the menu when you chose the GPRS connection you edit?
This is getting frustrating... |

By the way, I got another question...
Do you have to have a special SIM card to access Globe's GPRS?

@westice, there is no special sim to access gprs. it's in your subscription. CID=1 is the connection identifier and corresponds to the lone data account that you have in your phone (globe only has one, smart uses two). have you visited a globe center? |

Nope haven't visited one yet. Do they have to do a special setup to the phone other than the one they provide?
By the way, thanks to all you guys trying to help me on my problem... its much appreciated. |

we pay US$ 0.00 for GPRS access in the Philippines.
@westice
would you mind posting your actual settings here? the suggestions to have Globe's CS guide you step-by-step in configuring your phone using a landline might also be helpful. |

I called Globe via landline for step-by-step instructions about five times already. Still no luck.
By the way I'm not bugged by the "GPRS: GPRS not allowed" message already. It turned into "GPRS: GPRS unregistered"
Thanks for all your help man... really appreciate it. |
