OSF on 02

Party_Animal

Has anyone managed to set 02 up on the OSF? I've unlocked the phone. The 02 card works for texts and calls but not for internet. I spoke to the guru in the shop. He went online and spent ages trying to set it up but couldn't. I've searched the net. There is a thread at Android@MoDaCo;

"Thank you for your recent handset enquiry regarding handset settings. Please find your settings details below.

Please note all steps must be completed to ensure the settings are correctly configured.

Tap the dot next to your new profile to make it the default
Press the Back key four times to return to the standby screen."

I've done all this but no joy. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Sorry, Orange San Francisco.

Note that there are different settings for 'Pay and Go'and Contract customers.

All you need to do is go to the Mobile Guide on the O2 website, select an Android phone, click settings and then select the manual settings , taking care to type them accurately.

Every time I put my SIM (O2) in a different handset, the configuration settings are automatically sent as a text message which you save.

If that doesn't happen for some reason though, you can always text the word ACTIVE to 2020 and the configuration settings will be sent.

That'll only work for O2 approved handsets (i.e. handsets they stock) that support OTA settings and as far as I know no Android handsets do support over the air settings.

As Techhead says there'll be different settings if you're on PAYG, if you have no luck with mobile.o2.co.uk try wap.o2.co.uk .

Thanks, the 02 guru tried this and it didn't work

Just been back to the 02 shop with all the info from here. He can't connect and says it can't be done. Advised me to go to Orange. So the 02 deal is no good and can't change package for 30 days.

Just wondered if the O2 bloke had locked it in messing about .
I know the phone is bought then unlocked and working on Giffgaff for some users and thats O2 network .
I cannot find my O2 sim to try and check network settings .
