Hey Guys, im new here, ive been searching the net tonight looking for some answers and here seems to be as good a place as any!!.
I received as a christmas present today a new mobile phone. My current phone was a Vodafone but was getting a bit ratty and unreliable. A friend had a Sony Ericson w995a on the telecom network, which i liked the look and features of. The missis made some enquires and was told by the helpful sales guy at Noel Leeming that that particular phone was on special and is not a locked network phone and can be used on the Telecom, Vodafone and 2 degrees network. The phone came with a free Telecom sim which we were told we didnt have to use. To make a long story short, my Vodafone card works in the phone but I cant use the Email facilities or send/recieve mms messages.
Is there a way to apply Vodafone settings to the phone? im thinking of taking it back to the retailer.
I Downloaded Opera browser to the phone to try access the net via the wifi function, it works but i cant help but feeling im somehow on the telecom network being charged heaps for the connection with a Vodafone sim??
thoughts anyone??
