    If I ask for gprs settings with the bsnl cellone chennai, I get a reply that I should send the details of the model as required by them though I do that fine.
    What should I do now?

     
  4. Hi,

    Configuration depends a lot on the telco carrier or service provider. Some service providers will just provide you documentation on how to setup your mobile phone manually while others require you to send a text (e.g. SET NOKIA3110c) to a specific number. You will then get a message containing configuration settings that prompts you to save the settings on your mobile phone.

    Try to check what is the procedure for your service provider.
