6212 NFC & AT&T - Packet Data Problem

I have a Nokia 6212 Classic.  I just put an AT&T (california) sim chip in it for the first time.  Cell works, text works.  but Internet says "Must subscribe to packet data first".  I called at&t and they were not helpful (big surprise), all they could say is that i am subscribed.
Does anyone know what the packet data settings are to do it manually?  Cingular was wap.cingular
Thanks!

 Go into Settings.  Go into Configuration.  Go into Personal Configuration Settings.  Now, press Add New (visible if you don’t have a previous Personal Setting created) or press the Options button. When you have pressed the Options button, choose Add new.  When you have pressed Add New, you will get a new menu, which will give several options to choose from.  Now, scroll down and choose the Access Point and press Select. (Please note that this option is not available on the Nokia 3220 model and maybe on some more models, you can instead use the Services option instead of the Access Point option on the Nokia 3220.) Do not choose the Web option, since this will not work with Opera mini.  Now go into Access Point Settings.  Go into Bearer Settings.  Go into Packet Data Access Point.  Now, enter you APN address corresponding to your provider. Then press OK.  Go back to the Personal Configurations Settings menu, where you now should be able to see an Access Point selected.  Now press the Options button, and then choose to activate this Access Point.  Now you should be able to start Opera Mini, and all other internet based applications.

  • NOKIA 5230 PACKET DATA PROBLEM

    Hi I am Alph, may I please have assistance in a no connection massage from packet data. Coz time after time it says select connection. Please help!!!

    First of all, do you have an active data plan from your Operator ? If so, call and request them to send the settings for Access Points. These are normally sent thru' SMS.. Once received, open the message and select 'SAVE'.. Now you should not have any problem accessing..
    If you do not have an active data plan..then you will have to get one..

  • Nokia 5530 packet data problem with vodafone live

    hi,try going into connectivity settings, open destinations, open internet and delete ALL access points. Turn off phone. Now restart, go back into connectivity settings and in internet- options-new access point, select automatically check for available access points, select packet data, name it whatever you like, and use that. Hopefully this should resolve your problem.
    Good Luck

  • 5230 Internet problem-Packet data

    I have a packet data problem. I have looked in the settings, but I can't find the place where I can turn packet data on. My 5230 won't connect to the internet without it, and I am really frustrated! Help!

    Hello, I was using 5230 with BSNL gprs. Net on mobile & PC were fine. I switched to Docomo, it was better. One day it was connected but not opening webpage. In status, I found Bytes receiving but not sending. I found everywhere about this but they know how to deal with BYTES NOT RECEIVING. I tried with new settings, new cable, but failed. After a month BYTES RECEIVING also stopped. When I installed a Bluetooth dongle and tried to connect directly(without using one touch access).... then BYTES SENT is ok, but BYTES RECEIVING paused. I tried different browsers also. After netwrk diagnosis.... DNSServer search order (FAILED). PLEASE HELP....!

  • Problem with packet data with E5

    Last night every thing was OK, I was able to connect to internet using my phone
    but  today  I tried to connect  but I get this msg
    "packet data: packet data not available .check network services"
    I called the company  and they sent me the configuration and I saved it  but  nothing changed .....
    Any ideas ??

    Straight Talk with AT&T USA (APN: tfdata) or T-Mobile US (APN: wap.tracfone)?

    how this all this could happen just from taking out the battery.
    Well, you had to take out the battery while it was running. Then, a lot of fancy things can happen like a file-system corruption or just a SIM re-detection. The latter could load new configurations. The former would require the Nokia Software Recovery Tool on a Windows computer. Anyway, that is very, very rare – let us hope this is fixable by just changing the settings.

  • Packet data for Nokia C3-00

    I have the suite and a network adaptor automatically created. Both of that can't access, the c3-00 respond "Subscribe to Packet data first".. But I already have the gprs settings from my network provider.. What should I do?. Please help me.

    Can you browse with your phone? If yes, your problem is alrealdy solved. Nokia PC Suite (any version) wont work with S40 phones like C3. You have to download Nokia Ovi Suite for PC. You can google it and download it free. It's about 87.something MB. It works perfectly.

  • N80 & Orange packet data

    I wonder if anyone else has had the same experience as I've had, I was just playing with my Orange N80 and when I looked in the log file I found the data counter had registered all sent data as 3.05MB and all received data as 4.72MB and all I'd done was look on Orange world a few times and checked out the sport on BBC mobile - which I know is very economical on data, however when I first got the phone I was trying out the camera and didn't realise that my pictures were being uploaded to Orange until I turned off the album feature but there weren't many photo's anyway but at £1. or so a MB this could get very expensive! I called Orange who, whilst being very polite, couldn't help very much other than to advise me to check my next bill and reset the data counter and compare the following bill! Anyway, I've since turned off just about everything as Orange seem to set all connections to a default setting of always on and I now get prompted for any connection other than for calls and sms which has the added bonus of increased battery life - not much mind but still better. Now call me cynical if you will but how many people will run up huge data bills before they realise they need to change the default settings to off which,imho, should the case anyway. Since turning off the packet data, online album etc though, I experience less problems with the handset too!

    Just mention my findings on this
    I too myself have seen a high amount of data being classed as transmitted via orangeinternet even though I have my accesspoint set to my home network, set the connection to only when needed and also changed the softkey menu so now says camera instead of home.
    I rang orange about this and advised I was not happy the phone stated I had transfered 3mb of data in less than 2 days of using the phone, and that I don't use their webpages and if checked previous bills they would know this. I have been told that so far no data is being shown as being used, and when get my bill it will be looked into then if I am charged for anything.
    Incase you may not know if you dont have the internet package you will be charged £10 per mb from orange.
    I think I have now found out what the problem is, if you connect the data cable to the pc it will go into offline mode and you can transfer whatever you want. The minute you unplug the cable you go back into online mode and the orangeinternet automatically connects and whatever you have transfered by cable gets added to the orangeinternet connection.
    Hopefully when get bill I should be able to dispute any charges for this, especially as I've phoned them about it.

  • "Subscribe to Packet Data First" (Bit of feedback)

    I recently bought a Nokia 6021, which offers Bluetooth connectivity and E-mail function (send and retrieve). I got some setup advice Forum members.
    Bluetooth was easy to set up, and I now use the phone in the car with a handsfree unit, which clips on the sun visor.
    Very satisfactory.
    E-mail was (much) more difficult to set up.
    I kept getting an error: "Subscribe to Packet Data First".
    It turned out that the fundamental problem lay in the fact that Vodafone Support had incorrectly given me the settings for a "Contract SIM card" when in fact I operate mine as a "Pay-As-You-Talk SIM card".
    Specifically they got me to insert "Internet" as one of the Bearer Settings parameters - when it should actually be "pp.vodafone.co.uk". "pp" indicates PrePaid.
    So watch that point, all you PAYT Users!
    It wasn't a 6021 problem ... it was a question of identifying the right kind of SIM card.
    Incidentally, when the 6021 retrieves e-mails, if the message is too big (I think above 100k), it fetches the message header, with sender's ID, etc., so that you can identify who has e-mailed you even if you can't read their message/file. Suits me perfectly.
    Thanks for the advice I got from Forum members.
    Best regards - Charles

    You need to contact your Operator and get the Data plan activated ...

  • How do I subscribe to packet data first on my Noki...

    I am trying to get onto the wap using a Nokia 7373 i have has my settings set via Nokia but its saying ' subscribe to packet data first' what is this and how do i do it?
    Many Thanks

    Once you are downloading and installing the GPRS from your Service Provider you are subscribing the Packed Data. The full form of abbreviated GPRS = General Packed Data Radio Service. Your problem is a problem with "Configuration" in the Handset. All you need to select NO from PERSONAL CONFIGURATION SETTING by following the path : Main Menu>Settings>Configuaration>Personal Configuration Settings.
    Input Data : Personal Account  : JAVA    click the java
    Home Page : www.google.co.in
    User Name : ppp
    Password : ppp123
    Use Preferred access point : YES
    NOW GO BACK TO CONNECTIVITY Menu item.
    Select : Packet  Data
    CLICK THE ITEM    : PCKET DATA SETTING 
    Put against Active  Access Point : Data Bearer  Packet Data                                                         Put against the item 'Alias for access  point'  :  Data Bearer Packed Data.                                 Put against item 'PACKET DATA ACCESS POINT' :  gprseast.cellone.in

    TO ANYONE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION!!!!!
    I have had this phone for a week and the WLAN has been very problematic!
    To stop the phone from connecting to the GPRS instead of using the WLAN you must...
    - Change all the settings to 'ASK FIRST', this includes the internet connection under connectivity and within the saved WLANS, each must have ask first selected.
    - You must edit the packet data settings (under connectivity), it must say 'when needed' and then you must change the access point to a different point, e.g. Access point , then edit this access point, the alias can be anything (it is just a name), but the access point must be changed to the WLAN access point you are trying to connect to.
    To find this access point code you must go to ...
    Menu - settings - connectivity - WLAN - available wlans - then click edit on the WLAN you want to use. Look under 'Access point MAC', this should be a long list of numbers and letters separated by colons e.g. 1A:2B:3C:4D:5E:6E.
    This works at home because you can save the WLAN and use the preferred access point, to make this work for 'hot spots' you will probably have to write down the access point code from the WLAN you want to use and create a new access point and change access points when you are using a different connection.
    This works by saving specific access points to available WLAN locations.

  • Sorting serial packet data into queues

    I am receiving serial packet data which originates from different sensor nodes in a network. Each sensor node
    has a unique ID which is sent in the packet. The idea is to display the data in one chart and choose which sensor data to display
    by using a cluster of booleans. I was thinking of using queues to buffer the data from single nodes, so for a network of 12 nodes 
    I would need 12 queues and use a simple case structure to decide to which queue the element should be enqueued. Does this approach 
    make sense or is there a simpler way to solve this problem? 

    That seems reasonable.  You certainly need 12 of something for the data from the separate sensors. If the number of sensors can change, a 2D array might be better because you do not need to duplicate anything (such as adding another queue) to add a sensor.  However, arrays must be rectangular so if different amounts of data are received from different sensors, some method of keeping track what data is valid for each sensor will be required. The data from each sensor could be in a different row.
    You probably want to use a graph, not a chart.  When you switch the display to a different sensor, you just wire that array row for that sensor to the graph.  Charts have an internal hsitory buffer and would be much more complicated to switch.

  • Nokia C3-01 & subscribe to packet data first.

    Hello !
    I have a nokia c3-01, I am not able to connect to the internet using WLAN, it says subscribe to packet data first. 
    can anyone help me on this.
    Thanks.

    Go to menu-settings-configuration settings-personal settings- my web. Do not enter any data in any field & press back. Do again with my access point. Now select these two as active settings & access point. Now go to connectivity-wlan. Search & save your wlan. Set the connection to do not ask. You will be able to connect using wlan only.
    Please mark the post as solution if it solves your problem.

  • Feature request - Disable packet data

    I would like to make a feature request for the otherwise awesome phone Nokia Asha 302. You have done a great job there, the phone is very nice and popular.
    Can you please make an additional setting, so that we can DISABLE packet data completely? Currently, only two options are available - 'when needed' and 'always on'.
    I see a lot of people are using different bizzare techniques to overcome a basic problem - there is no setting to disable packet data. Why there isn't, is beyond me, and as far as I can tell - beyond a lot of people. It is most intuitive to make it 'yes' and 'no' in the first place, but engineers made it 'yes' and 'yes, please' instead, which does not make any sense. It is a source of MAJOR frustration and inconveniences - applications fire up the internet and keep it always on, leading to battery drain and unwanted bandwidth charges.
    So, can you please implement 3 states in Settings - Connectivity - Packet data:
    - always on
    - when needed
    - disabled
    I would go even further and ask to make a shortcut (like WiFi and Bluetooth) and a dedicated hardware key, since I think it is a base setting that needs to be easily accessible.
    Please do it as soon as possible, since it is a major shortcomming, and make a release immediately. My phone is Asha 302, but I think all S40 users are complaining of the same.
    Thank you very much and hope you will consider it.
    If other users also think it is important, please star this message.

    Yes, this is a feature which is definitely required.
    It will reduce power consumption by a lot, and also save us valuable bandwidth.
    Please consider implementing it. If there is a new release, please let us know.
