Gprs not connecting

i am accessing internet in my HTC smart f3188 mobile using Airtel Gprs pack.I want to access the same in my laptop .Can you please tell the software i need to install in my pc to connect internet to pc through modem connection

Please activate a gprs services in your mobile and get GPRS settings on your phone from your service provider. If you want settings then please let me know which is the service provider you are using and which is the GPRS plan you have activated and i will provide necessary information for HTC P3450 as it is not compatible for automatic settings so you have to do manual settings in your mobile.

please contact Airtel customer care and get the airtel GPRS settings. by automatically or Manually configure it.

hi i am Arun using htc p3450 how to connect gprs in this phone with vodafone connection

save all contact numbers manualy and go to setting cleare storage and let it reinstall and follow auto setup of gprs.

Its not true that one cannot access internet on pc via htc p3400i. Right now I am using the same to post this message. The problem is there is not much help available on the internet. Hence i have decided to post the solution.
Here are the steps.I took to enable vodafone mobile connect on my htc p3400.
1) You will first have to enable gprs on you mobile by calling helpline. 2) Go to start->settings->connections(tab)->connections     Click advanced tab. Then cilck select networks. You will see 2 drop downs. In first drop down select vodafone mobile connect and in second drop down select my isp.     This is all that you need to configure on the phone. 
   Now connect the data cable to the pc and then connect the phone to the cable. you will be asked two questions. Select USB for one and select vodafone mobile connect for the second.
   Now go to start->programs->internet sharing and say connect. You are now ready to surf internet on the pc. just fire your fav browser and check it out.
Thanks, Nilesh Gadkari

After browsing a lot of sites and experimenting with the settings finally I was able to configure my HTC P3400i with Vodafone Live support without any help from the Vodafone customer care (who were very bad and rude when I called them for getting the setting). The settings is working fine for me in Bangalore. Hope this helps all who bought this phone and struggling for getting the GPRS setting for HTC P3400i.

Below is the step by step instruction:
Step 1
Start->Settings->Connections->Tasks->Add a new modem connection:

Enter a name for the connection:
<give any name>

Select a modem:
Cellular Line(GPRS)

click next

Acess point name:
portalnmms

User name: <blank>
Password: <blank>
Domain:* <blank>

Go to Advanced->TCP/IP
select radio button "Use server-assigned IP address"

Go to Advanced->Servers
select radio buttion "Use server-assigned address"


Step 2
Start->Settings->Connections->Tasks->add proxy setting

Select "This network connects to the Internet"
Select "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet"

Click "Advanced" button
Tap on HTTP
Server: 10.10.1.100 Port:9401

Username: <blank>
Password: <blank>
Domain: <blank>

Tap on WAP
Server: 10.10.1.100 Port:9401

Username: <blank>
Password: <blank>
Domain: <blank>

Step3:
Start->Settings->Connections->Advanced
In "Select which networks are automatically used"-> click the Select Networks
Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:
Select the Connection name which you configured in Step 1

Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using:
Select the Connection name which you configured in Step 1

Make sure you reboot after doing above change.

GPRS service is there in airtel but there is no wap service for the htc mobile 3450... as i am using the phone i will browse the sites through GPRS by Internet Mobile Office

Dear friends, before I begin with the details of Airtel Live, I wish to thank everyone at XDA-Developers for working on ROMs, fixes and the support that is being provided here.

Special thanks to dsixda for producing Onyx 3.0 because of which my HTC Touch Elfin (P3452) rocks even more.

Now regarding Airtel Live service: Airtel Live is free GPRS service that Airtel provides to its customer with a catch i.e. as per Airtel, you can only access http://live.airtelworld.com for downloading latest ringtones, games, wallpapers, videos etc.

If you call Airtel Customer Support to get Live on your HTC Touch, they tell you that it is not supported on any Windows Mobile phone and suggest you to go for Airtel Mobile office, full GPRS service for a monthly rental of Rs. 499 (USD 12).

After googling and fighting with Airtel, I managed to get the correct settings and I am able to run Airtel Live as well access most of the websites on standard HTTP protocol (SSL is not supported). Google Maps also works for me.

On Windows Mobile 6.x, the steps to configure are as follows:

1. Activate Airtel Live by sending the following SMS to 121: MASALA ACTIVE.
2. The service takes atleast 3-4 hours to get active. Restart the phone and resume configuring.
3. Tap Start -> Settings.
4. Select Connections Tab and tap Connections.
5. Select Advanced Tab, tap Select Networks button to bring up Network Management.
6. Under "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:" drop down, tap the New button.
7. In the General Tab, type the name of the settings as Airtel Live
8. Select Modem tab, tap New...
9. Type the name of connection as Airtel Live, select the modem as Cellular Line (GPRS) and tap Next.
10. Type Access Point Name as airtelfun.com and tap next.
11. Leave username, password and domain blank and tap finish.
12. Select Proxy Settings tab. Tap "This network connects to the Internet". This should enable the next check box option.
13. Tap "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet".
14. Type the proxy server as: 100.1.200.99 and then tap Advanced...
15. Tap HTTP, leave the server as 100.1.200.99 and change the port to 8080
16. Similarly tap WAP, Secure WAP and Socks, type the server as 100.1.200.99 but leave the port to defaults. These are optional settings.
17. Tap OK to close the Advanced proxy setup screen.
18. Tap OK to close the New connection screen.
19. The network management screen should now list the new connection you have created in the drop-down. Tap OK to close this screen
20. Tap OK to close the connection screen.

Now you are ready to fire your favourite browser. I have tested this on PIE as well as Opera 9.5 and it works for me.

If PIE reports "Request not authorized by the WAP Gateway", you will need to change the user-agent to anything you can think of using "Advanced Config" tool (thanks to dsixda for suggesting this). I had set it to HTCP3452_Mozilla/4.0 under Advanced Config -> Internet Explorer -> User Agent Custom Base.

I think Airtel has intentionally blocked Mozilla/4.0 user-agent on WM phones. It may be that they cannot restrict Windows Mobile based phones from accessing websites on standard HTTP. On other phones I had tried, I could not get other sites to work with the same settings.

Enjoy Airtel Live for free.
