Setting Vodafone Live! on Nokia Phone for connecting Apps via GPRS.

In: browser| internet| mobile

7 May 2010



It was little difficult to connect internet via GPRS for all those N97 pre-installed and downloaded apps ( like Ovi Store, Opera MiniOpera MiniOpera Mini etc. ) which require internet. I have downloaded GPRS setting for Vodafone Live ! but still it was giving connection problem for apps. Only N97 browser get connected to Vodafone live! but apps where unable to connect.

Soon I found that all those apps where connecting through a default “Internet Access Point” and not Vodafone Live! AccessAccess reviewsAccess reviews point. For connecting to Internet Access Point you need to subscribe and configure “Vodafone Mobile Connection”.

In Nokia by default all apps try to connect via “Internet Access Point”. So you just need to make you Vodafone Live! access point as default access point. Next time when app try to connect to internet, it will rout through Vodafone Live! access point.

Happy Browsing !! :)

  • but how do you make "Vodafone Live" access point as default access point? I have an android phone and could not figure out how to do it.

    hi ravi
    i second you up bcoz im also having the same problem... i have a vodafone connection but i'm using an ACER LIQUID Handset with Android OS... Same problem..
    how do i get the Connection Points so that i can access the net..
    after all ANDROIDS live and breathe only when internet is available...
    anyone out there with a solution to this problem?

    P.S. i also checked the vvodafone website for the list of compatible phones on GPRS... strangely if i am not mistaken, all the cellphones mentioned over there were not based on Android O/S....... and even stranger is that my family members who are using an Idea Connection can access the Internet through Idea GPRS...
    Please advise what do i do
  • hi ravi,

    sorry for the late reply.
    well, i had this N97 Demo phone. In that you have an option in ur connection setting to set / create new access points. Their you can select and existing access point and set it as default.

    Also in that you get set of access-point's while you access any app, so you could select Vodafone live from that list.

    I never had a hand on android so it would be hard to comment, but i am sure you can find some similar option in the connection area in the android phone - setting / or if you some across some alternative solution... do let me know.

    take care
