WAP and MMS settings

Can anyone tell me how to set up WAP and MMS on an unlocked phone that I want to use with Cellular One. When I call tech they always ask me what kind of phone I have and I am sure when i say something they don't see they will give me a hard time. So I would like to be able to set it up myself. I am thinking about a Pebl which is 850 and 1900 so I am thinking it will work. Does anyone use a Pebl with Cellular One? Thanks

IF you did decide to go w/ a Pebl, I would assume it would have the same general software as the Razr, so just tell the tech you have a Razr.

Of course, I could be wrong, but it's the best info I can give.

I was thinking the same thing...as long as it is 850/900/1800/1900 it should work on the cell one network..I think I am going to give it a shot!

The way we send WAP and MMS is through an automated program that sends to specific phones, the MHz has nothing to do with data, so i would advise to just search around to find out the specific settings.

I am going to try a Pebl...can I set it up with the settings I have found on another forum? Or if I tell them I have a razr do you think that will work. Do you know if the phone will even work? It is unlocked and a quad band

thanks

Its going to work Voice wise, thats no problem. but the WAP and MMS is basically hit or miss, call in and ask for the settings and say you have a RAZR and see if you get the message to update the settings.

Can I manually set these up? I did get some settings in writing off a forum. Also do you think my text messaging will work? I was also thinking about using the same settings I have on my razr and manually entering them...I just really want this to work. You are knowledgeable thanks for your help. Do you work for Cell One?

Yes i do work for CellOne i would try the settings manually i dont see a problem with it working because since they are both Motorolas thier settings will be the same as long as its inputed exactly the same. text messaging should also work fine.

I see how to set everything in the MMS you just go to message set up right. But for the GPRS I go into web sessions? or is there another place I should go into? I see the cellularone that i have set as the default, it has a lock next to it and I can't get any further into it. Again thanks for your help

you will need to hilight the selected profile then press the middle menu button, from there you will have several options, one of which being edti. 😁

WHen I hit the middle button it does not give me Edit as an option. SOme of the other ones that were in the phone give me and edit option, but it does not let me change anything. I am assuming that when I get the phone I will have to set up from scratch, do you know how to manually add the cellular one set up? Like I said I have the setting and info, i am just worried I won't be able to get in there and set it up. I will have the techs send me the text message set up, hopefully if I tell them I have a razr it will work. 🙂

You will have the option as long as it is unlocked. also i check with my tech support and the settings will come through on a pebl if it is sent as razr.

Just to let you know, the pebl works perfect with cell one. I told them I had a razr and they sent me the set up stuff and everything works. I am very happy.
Thanks

The APN used by Cellular One handsets is "cellular1wap". No username or password is required.
