Does anyone have the settings for GPRS on O2 please for my unlocked and unbranded Desire please?

I have looked on O2,s website for the settings and it only has them for Pay Monthly.

I would like the settings to get onto the internet.

I have also put in my number to get a text with the settings but that seems to not be working as it wont take my number.

    why dont you call tech support of o2 and ask for help. this is the sort of stuff that should be bread and butter for them. call from another phone on hands free so that you are free to play with the settings of the mobile in question and follow their instructions. google their website for tech team number

    You may be able to find the settings here and have them sent to your phone. I don't have an o2 number to hand, so can't see if they are there.

    If not, just look for another HTC phone with Android, get those settings sent to your phone and see if they work.

    ETA: Just re-read your post. If you can't get the settings online, try phoning o2 up and get them to send you them. The can probably manually override the error.
