Sticky for working phones/tarrifs?

[Dixie68]

Can the mods put up a sticky here listing the phones & tarrifs (and possibly the settings) that are known to work on TomTom Traffic?
I ask because the phone compatibility & wireless setup guides on TomTom's site is hit & miss. I've had 2 phones that according to their site are ok but on emailling them I find they are not. Also I seem to go round in circles trying to set up for traffic - I just get offered one setting, then another, then mutations of previously given settings...

The format of the sticky could be:

TomTom: (TomTom Unit, ie. TomTom ONE V2)

Mobile Phone: (Phone model here)

Provider: (Service provider here)

Tarrif: (Tarrif details here)

Settings: (Settings KNOWN to work here)

I think this would stop the multiple posts asking for settings on the same phones/tarrifs etc (and I'm guilty of this myself).
I would love to start it off with settings etc that I know work, but I haven't found any yet![/b]

Excellent Idea, perhaps members could add their phones and tarrifs to this thread to start us off

I hope so, BTW for Settings I mean APN, Username, Password, IP, DNS etc

[classy56]

There is nothing I would like more than to add my settings, however my Samsung E900 is not compatible just yet, it is fine with the hands free etc, just not the Plus facilities.

I have asked several times for help, only because when you try to set it up, it IS in the list of phones to select on the actual device, which gave me a glimmer of hope, but no such luck.

Oh come on people!!! For god's sake - IF YOUR TRAFFIC IS WORKING PLEASE PUT THE DETAILS UP HERE.
I can't believe how unhelpful people on thi site are!!!

Calm down, man. MY Traffic worked using a RIDER and a Nokia N90, until some stole the N90. I have no idea what the settings were but I'm on a Vodafone Monthly contract.

Right, I've finally got mine to work now, so here's my settings:

TomTom: TomTom ONE V2

Mobile Phone: Motorola RAZR v3

Provider: Vodafone

Tarrif: PAYG

Settings:
TTONE
APN: pp.vodafone.co.uk
Username: web
Password: web
IP: Automatic
DNS: Automatic
Dial: *99#
Login: at+cgdcont=1,"ip","pp.vodafone.co.uk" (omit the ,"",0,0)

PHONE
MENU
WebAccess, SELECT
Web Sessions, SELECT
MENU
New, SELECT

Homepage, CHANGE

ISDN, SELECT
GPRS APN, CHANGE
Type pp.vodafone.co.uk, OK
User Name: web

DONE

MENU
SET DEFAULT (your newly named connection), SELECT

This works for me, but PLEASE NOTE - I asked Vodafone for the correct settings, and the ones they sent me were wrong. They said to select WAP as the Service Type and that Password and Username was WAP, which is incorrect.
Hope this helps someone out, and if anyone who has a different contract/phone etc could put their details up here it would help other people out.

I haven't posted the settings, as for me it was unnecessary as TomTom1 (V1) and my Nokia 6630 configured the settings automatically. Incidently the Nokia was an unlocked phone that had been on the 3 network.

TomTom: TomTom ONE V (v1)

Mobile Phone: NOKIA 6630

Provider: Orange

Tarrif: Orange PAYG

Settings: Automatic detection of all settings

Hi dixie68
please forgive a newbies total ignorance but I have a TTone, a razr v3 ans vodafone payg. I understand the tt settings but how the sam hill do i do the phone ones
when i open the menu all i get is 12 icons:
Games, vodafone live, video camera, my files, camera, messaging, organiser and tools, names, call log, settings,connectivity, and shortcuts

I dont know where to look for web access or the other stuff

I think what you are doing with this is terrific power to your elbow

May the 4th be with you

I should also add that I have managed to set up GPRS on the phone but cannot get mobile phone tools 3.23.to recognise my v3

[COLINRG]

For O2 check out O2 Connection Details PDF

This is what I use. Work on WM2003 as well.

[fluffball]

Hi, for a full list of gsm/gprs settings I have found this site useful:
http://www.filesaveas.com/gprs.html
It has settings for O2. Vodafone, Orange, T-Mobile, Tesco, Virgin, BT-Mobile etc.
For downloading you will need an account that supports "full internet access" (a.k.a web or mobile-web or mobile internet) rather than the more limited WAP access.

Can someone please help me before i pull all my hair out. I warn you this is a long story, well here goes.
Im on VODAPHONE PAYT and got traffic on my TOMTOM 910 and could'nt get it working at first, the phone kept saying CONN FAILURE CHECK SETTINGS on my SONY ERICSSON W810I mobile, after a while of this i eventually found these settings which actually worked which was:

APN= pp.vodaphone.co.uk
USERNAME= web
PASSWORD= web
IP= automatic
DNS= automatic
DIAL= *99***1#
LOGIN SCRIPT= atz+cgdcont=1,''ip'',''pp.vodaphone.co.uk'','''',o,o

I used this with great success when i went on holiday in the lake district, but on the last day to come home traffic would'nt work and said that my traffic subscription had ran out even though i had a years subs until august next year, GREAT AAHHHHHHHH.
Tomtom told me to reset my traffic which i did and it works connected to the computer but not the mobile. I've tried everything on this forum but the phone still comes up CONN FAILURE CHECK SETTINGS. VODAPHONE keeps blaming TOMTOM and my GPRS is working so what the hell is going on.

I TOLD YOU IT WAS LONG. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME AS I'M GOING MAD WITH THIS.

TOMTOM 910
VODAPHONE PAYT
SONY ERICSSON W810I

In a slightly different circumstance I ended up with an expired traffic subscription even though I had several months to run. What worked for me was:

1) Doing the account reset - this is what you've done.

2) Then doing a device backup - just in case.

3) Then doing a device reset (paper clip in reset hole).

4) Then doing a bluetooth phone set up (back in with all the parametric data you've described).

And I was back in the land of the living.

TC
