    hey guys..just wondering if there is anybody who is successfully using a three sim card in a Nokia N80??

    Ive rooted out some of the mms and web settings over the net but no joy....i can imagine that they should be similar if not the same for the n73??

    Cheers

    Hey agin, just a quick follow up to say that Ive got text and mms working ok now I think.....but when i set the web settings I cant load the homepage??

    I keep getting " Web no gateway reply".....then i was asked to purchase for the use of the web which I did but I cant get planet 3 but just the basic services offered??

    I dont understand why they cant intgerate this phone onto its network esp when they do it in the uk....

    this worked for me before.. install opera mini, navigate to any webpage. close it and then open S60 wap browser. navigate to 3 homepage. it should be there.
    if not switch off phone and switch it back on again.

    Thanks for that quintron,

    I installed opera but found it wouldnt load any pages....so i tried nokias and found it wouldnt either! so im gone from some connection to none...nice!

    I have to toggle the connection settings again...can i ask if you bothered entering any settings under settings - connection - packet data....or do you leave that blank, ive noticed no one mention this

    Are you bill or prepay? No gateway could be an issue on 3's end in any case especially if both browsers don't load anything..

    OK,

    Found out that half the problem was an age restriction 3 had in place and I had to verify my age in a shop with i.d??....even after being in there twice??? (Im 24 not 14)
    Other parts was the fact my sim came from a v3x.....default settings etc

    My age "verification", the fact I wasnt entertained at all on the phone because I had an N80 and no free webtexts made me leave them after a couple of days and back to O2.
    Since all my configurations and updates etc Ive noticed with the new n80 firmware that my web browser isnt in mouse mode anymore but scroll only.....when i opened opera it the same....can this be changed back? Ive went through setting and couldnt find anything??
