the Cingular Proxy should be like this:
3 Proxy Connections
Name: Cingular
Connects from: The Internet
Connects to: WAP Network
Proxy (name: port): wireless.cingular.com:80
Type: HTTP
User name:
Password: CINGULAR1 |
I have an Audiovox SMT 5600 unlocked and working on Cingular. Using the settings at the top of this thread, I have web access (with IE), SMS and MMS functionality, and Active Sync works wirelessly with my Exchange server. However, MSN Messenger will not work. When I try changing my proxy as noted above, I lose my Active Sync functionality and MSN Messenger still doesn't work; I think the "Connects from" and "Connects to" are backwards? When I flip them around, my Active Sync functionality is restored, but still no MSN Messenger.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks so much for your time,
Daniel

I have my SMT5600 with AT&T and am on the unlimited mMode plan. If I apply these Cingular settings, will it work? will I have to pay extra? Can I have both mMode and MEdiaWorks settings on my phone and use them both?
Thanks,
Atul

Since you have service with AT&T, you will have to stick with mMode settings.
Even though AT&T and Cingular have merged. I am guessing the these settings go with the carrier contract. If you have Cingular contract then you must use MEdiaWorks and if you have AT&T, you will need mMode.
And yes, you do have to pay and get the data service (mMode or MEdiaWorks depending on your carrier) activated on your contract.

I need some help to get this phone up and running

One site I know that will sell you unlock code is:
http://www.c500-unlock.com/
I haven't used it because I didn't need to.

I just used c500-unlock.com to unlock my new phone last night. Worked w/o a hitch. But, it's $38 per phone to unlock, so you might want to ask for a partial refund from the sellers...

This is a common ruse on ebay. Tell the seller to take the phones back and refund your money with shipping, or you will file with ebay. That is the only way to make sure you get your money back.

So if I change all these settings in my SMT5600 to what is listed in the first post I'll basically have a free Media Works package, or is this something else?
Thanks,
