gprs unstable on R2B025 ? |

I have a Dutch Vodafone GPRS subscribtion. Everything worked fine on the old software, but since the update to R2B025 I constantly have to turn my phone off and on to be able to use GPRS again. I do have GPRS reception all the time by the way, but when I want to load a WAP page it constantly says "Connecting..", after that nothing happens. On my T68i, also with R2B025, I also have the same problem.
does anyone else experience the same? It's really annoying having to reboot my phone every few hours. I hope some softwareupdate will solve this. |

No problems with new R2B025 (MMS) software ... it seems to be even more faster than R2B013 that was also very fast!
BUT I had this your absolutely the same problem with old R1A software ... there was some HARDWARE problem in phones radio part as said in the SC report. IT was a lot of month ago with mine brand new T68m phone with R1A SW ... after (mine phone) being in SC (service centre) for 2 days I got it back with new "radio part" and R2B013 SW (now R2B025 after update to MMS) and it works fantasticaly now (already for a couple of months) - no bugs, no problems. Thanks to SE! |

I have excactly the same problem as you. I think it would help with a master reset, but I haven't bothered yet. |

Well I have a brand new T68m so a master reset wouldn't make a difference I think. My T68i also has the same problem so I thought it might be the software. I don't think there's a fault in the hardware, or am I wrong? |

Before I got the MMS upgrade, I had problems with sending SMS'. Quite often, maybe each fitfh message couldn't be sent. A master reset solved it all. And I think it will help about the GPRS as well. |

Ok I'll try a master reset then, but since my T68m is new I don't know what difference that would make. But it never hurts to try though.
Thanks for the help! |

Tell me how it works. If it does any good, I'll try as well If not, I guess you should take it to your SP... |

I have no problem after the upgrade, have used the GPRS for more than 3 hours yesterday- very stable.

yes once i can connect it is very stable indeed. but the problem is I often can't connect. A master reset won't help either, i think it's very likely to be a software problem. |

mine also has that problem from time to time, and I'm also on NL Vodafone.
But it already had the same problem with R2A014, I'm going to try a master reset soon, let's see if that helps... |

I'm also on NL Vodafone, I already contacted the GPRS helpdesk. They told me it was probably a software bug.
a master reset won't help. I already tried that. |
