N95 packet data

having recently accuired the n95,advertised as what computers have become,i browsed the net and had a quick look at the maps , off the memory card an 02 feature preinstalled maps uk only, bearing in mind i have only had the phone 7 days when i looked at the packet data recieved i was shocked to see the figure 24 mb (02 charge £3 a mb) so with browsing only i am set to pay a wopping £75 , extortion is to kind , its more like **bleep**, or am i barking up the wrong tree?

the maps on my n95 are included with the phone .The problem is ,everytime this phone connects to the internet it has to down load the data which costs £3/mb billed by the information the site your viewing not how long you look,so a site with a lot of pictures costs a lot to browse, i have found this very misleading ,anyone thinking of getting this phone beware of this ,because nobody tells you , don`t know if the maps work the same way yet , i got a 1mb card with uk maps free but it still connects to gprs when you select maps from menu so have i got a open connection that i`m getting billed for whilst using the maps? if so i think i`ll get a taxi ,might be cheaper.

N95 Packet Data log duration won't clear

I would like to know if anyone else has experienced a fault that I have with my N95 8G running the latest version of software.
The fault is around the Packet Data log.
I want to be able to keep tabs on my daily data usage, so have set the log duration to 1 day. When I check the packet data counters the following day, they have not reset. I have left the counter running for 7 days now and they still haven't reset.
Maybe I don't understand this feature, but I was expecting the counters to reset after 1 day.
Nokia support have sent out their standard 'we have no idea wants wrong' email requesting me to return the phone back to factory setting and loose all my data, which I'm reluctant to do.
Cheers,
Paul

The "keep logs for" feature does not affect the counters.
All it does is keep individual events for the specified duration.
Enter the "logs" application and then scroll right. You'll see a list of logged events (calls, messages in/out, packet data usage etc). THESE are the entries kept for one day with your settings.

N95:Packet Data connection active???

For heavens sake! how do you turn off Packet Data Connection? so I can clear the log counter.. Or is there a way to turn off your access point so you can edit? Or can I just disable internet access? Or do I need to use the dark side of the force, and risk enternal damnation in the afterlife? Message Edited by bigbad on 18-Sep-200709:59 PM

Phew! Cracked it at last. Many thanks to you and others for your efforts in trying to solve the problem with the N95 handset.
In my particular case, the problem was the 'Orange' Camera Application which is easily disabled via the appropriate setting if you can locate that. It seems to log onto a packet data connection every 15 mins or so. Presumably, this is in order to check whether there are any image files to upload/download from/to the handset from an Orange Photo Album etc. The handset camera works perfectly well without this application which merely provides a short cut to other Orange services connected with photography which I and no doubt others could manage without.
This is not an obvious solution although it is indeed caused by non Nokia application software as has been suggested - but presumable approved by Nokia in conjunction with Orange. They seemed to be unaware of this causing a problem, no doubt because many other applications might do likewise and many contracts include these auto connection charges. I hope this information is useful to you. Thank you for your efforts in trying to establish the cause of the problem. This is not entirely all my own work since somewhere on the web the camera was mentioned but I couldn't see the relevance at the time nor what to do with it.
So, if you still have this problem and have disabled all the likely applications that might be going on line every 15 mins or so ... then the answer is to disable the Orange Camera Application. The camera itself will work just fine but if you wish to upload to an Orange photo album etc, you might have to reconnect/enable the Camera Application as and when required.

N95 WLAN Browsing Costs and Packet Data

I have recently purchased an N95 and am accessing the Internet via my home Wireless Network provided by Virgin Media instead of using the standard Access Point provided by the Mobile Operator i.e. Orange Internet - by doing this, I assume I would incurr no charges from Orange when surfing the Internet as I am using my own Broadband connection?
A seperate question, but related, how does the Packet Data transfer work? My default Access Point for this is Orange Internet, is this a different thing to the WLAN Access Point i.e. my Home Network or is is related? Does the Packet Data work when I'm connected to the Internet or is it mainly for messaging etc? Should I change the default Access Point for this to my Home Network or leave it as it is i.e. Orange Internet?

Hi sj219706
In answer to your first question, there are no further costs incurred using WLAN with your Virgin Media Broadband connection.
With regards your second question it depends a little upon how generous your GPRS = General Packet Radio Service data allowance with Orange is.
Can I use Nokia Maps application as an example? Unless disabled an active network connection is needed, this may either be through GPRS(Orange) or WLAN(Virgin Media). If you are within range of your WLAN this is your preferred access point.
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

The packet data connection indicator

I have a symbol showing on my E71 which is presumably a "GPRS packet data connection" but it doesn't have the lines underneath it, crossed out or not.
What does this indicate?

U can call orange and tell them to disable this.I saw a post from someone who gave them a rang and they disabled this feature for the.Anyway if they say it can't be done try again untill the right person answers the phone.In may not cost u anything to have it on but it will drain your battery much faster.Hope this helps!
Cheers!
The only way to disable it, is to kill ALL of your data services - which is what the update will do. It's hard coded into the variant apparently.
Had this confirmed by a senior tech. They really have borked their variant!

Nokia Internet Radio unable to choose Packet Data ...

Hi,
I have just downloaded the Nokia Internet Radio v1.04 to my N95 8GB (v20.0.0.16). It works fine over WLAN but doesn't even display the Packet Data access points (O2 Postpay WAP & O2 Postpay WAP) when I go to settings or when it starts up.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that hasn't cured it. I'm not sure how much data was deleted during the uninstallation though as the favourites I have added are still there even after the re-install!
Has anyone had a similar fault?
Thanks

Hello
I got the same problem.
Have u solved this issue?
If so , tell me how.

N80 Packet Data and Orange Internet

How do I set up Packet Data and Orange internet on my Nokia N80? Been looking at loads of tutorials but cant find them on my first N80 there was an "always on connection" and sending SMS is pretty slow any ideas about getting these settings? Been on a few sites but cant find anything for Orange Internet, Packet Data and SMS. Cheers

Either go to the Orange site, support, select N80 and go into each link for text, 3g, GPRS, MMS (some links will send you the sim update)
or phone Orange on 156 and ask for them to send you all the settings via SIM update for messaging, voice mail and data etc. Explain that you've got a replacement handset, and they'll prob send your account's settings via multiple updates (including roaming options and divert options).

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.

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.

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 ...

Belle: No WLAN and Packet Data log.Filter options ...

In Nokia N8, with Symbian Anna, WLAN and Packet Data logging wasn't possible, even though there were options in the log filtering settings.
See below:
http://i44.tinypic.com/9kxbfa.png
After updating to Belle, log isn't still working, and both WLAN and Packet Data options were removed from filter options.
http://tinypic.com/r/6dxwgg/5
Will it be implemented in a further time?

Hi,
quick update on this one as we now have a FAQ online.

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
