GPRS problems Mar 5 2008, 3:36 AM EST Hi all, I am using ActiveSync to retrieve emails from our company Exchange server and do this using the local carrier GPRS connection. It works fine within the country but when i go out of the country then it never works. In connections, only my local carrier settings are stored and i do a global roaming package from my carrier. Phone calls works fine when i am traveling. I contacted my local carrier on this but they say that they don't support HTC PDAs. Any help? Do you find this valuable? |

RE: GPRS problems Mar 5 2008, 10:36 AM EST "Hi all,Ok, so if it works in the US only, you know that it isnt the device. If it were the device, it wouldnt work anywhere. The issue is likely with the roaming carrier that you pick up on. Isnt Sprint CDMA and not GPRS? At any rate, you shouldnt have to change settings when roaming, the roaming network (provided they have an agreement with your carrier) will be able to route you as if you were in your home area. Who is your carrier? Do you find this valuable? |

I am living UAE and my carrier is Etisalat and according to them they are in agreement with major carriers around the world. But the problem is that i have tried it in my UK,USA,India,Sri Lanka etc.. but it didn't work anywhere. Do you find this valuable? |

RE: GPRS problems Mar 5 2008, 2:52 PM EST Cyberslam, does your device have a SIM card slot? Have you inserted your SIM into it if so? Do you find this valuable? |

Obvious questions Mar 11 2008, 5:11 PM EDT The reason for the obvious questions is that this forum is titled Sprint Touch. The Sprint Touch is not a GSM phone, and therefore doesn't have a SIM card. When asking questions about the GSM Touch you should probably make sure to clarify that fact. Do you find this valuable? |
