Activating Vodafone GPRS (previously hutch)

Prashanth on September 24th, 2007

Almost everybody know that Hutch is now Vodafone. This makes a change in procedure of activating GPRS on Vodafone mobile. Following is the procedure to activate Vodafone GPRS:

  1. Send sms ACT VL to 111.
  2. GPRS will be activated in 24 hours.
  3. After GPRS gets activate, you need to get settings.
  4. For settings sms VL <Phone Model> to 56789, Ex: VL N2626 for Nokia 2626
  5. You will receive MMS & GPRS settings back to back.
  6. Save both the settings & get connected!

I am not sure of charges for this service. Vodafone charges are varying from pre-paid & post paid. My friend is using pre-paid & there is no monthly charges for him & only paying for tranfers (10 paisa/10kb). I activated same thing on my post-paid connection & Vodafone charging me Rs.49/Month. For this monthly charge I will get

  1. 500 mb of transfer (I am not sure, I asked thrice when customer care girls told this). 5pais/10kb after that.
  2. 30 MMS, 3rs/mms after that.

So make sure of charges before activating this service.

    Hi All,
    There is no such thing as free GPRS for any operator.
    All the beggars are shouting for free GPRS, and calling us operators as beggars..

    I am from Vodafone, and heading GPRSTEAM..

    Pls beware of such leachers who promise to get your GPRS free..
    If your GPRS is not working, get the settings done by Customer care executives at our Stores..

    I am having a P1i Sony Erricson phone and use a Opera Browser. I have activated the basic Vodafone GPRS (Mumbai) and can browse almost all the websites.
    I am although facing a problem when i download any application ( e.g. gmail client) and also using the inbuilt email client that (IMAP/POP3) does not work and gives timeout errors.
    When checked with Vodafone, they i ll need to go for the advanced GPRS package ( which is stinkingly expensive).
    Do any of you pros have any idea on this.
    is, adv GPRS, the only way you can access POP3 accounts through Vodafone GPRS ?
    thanks

  • S.Ghosh
    Hi AJ,

    Thank you so much for explaining the Vodafone GPRS settings for HTC Touch. It finally worked. I cant believe how bad Vodafone customer support is. They absolutely have no clue about GPRS, settings etc. The probably are just reading from a manual or something and cant say anything beyond what they have in front of them. Thanks once again AJ for explaining the settings so well.

    Regards

    Hi all,

    Its very simple

    Cost 199 / month surfing 5p / 10kb

    To activate send ACT VMC199 to 111
    ( here 199 is the monthly cost if u want other plans like say 499 per month then send ACT VMC499)

    it takes 48 hrs to act
    Send WWW to 111 and it will send your settings for your mobile. Once you get reply for setting just select save from options and it will automatically conf setting in ur mobile

    Thats it u can now start surfing.

    Can anyone help?

    I am unable to check my email account from my phone (Sony Ericsson K530i, PREPAID). I do not need to browse, just need to check my gmail account, but neither works.

    I called 111 was instructed to send VL to 52586 and then ACT VL to 144. I received this confirmation "Vodafone Live Service has been activated on your phone. Enjoy the new world of entertainment and information on Vodafone Live!".

    I then chose VDF Mobile Connect in Internet Settings.

    BUT, I still get this error message "Connection Failure.Check settings.If problem persists, contact your operator"

    Well, i think the rates have gone up.
    Now its 199/month.
    http://www.vodafone.in/Vodafone/VBS/Pages/mobil...
  • @Akshay
    Yep,
    may be you have to avtivate Vodafone Connect to get other applications working. Vodafone Connect is charged Rs.150/month & 5 paisa/10kb tranfer rate.
  • Akshay
    Vodafone has a serious issue...

    On activation of "Vodafone Live" it does not enable ports except port 80. Which limits u to connect thru applications which uses ports.

    Hi,

    Can some one help me in connecting to the internet using the internet connection in the laptop.

    I am using BSNL braodband and its connected through the ethernet connection.

    I am using either bluetooth and USB connection to connect the HTC PDA to the laptop. I want to share the internet connection to PDA also.

    I heard that there is an option to bridge the broadband connection and the usb connection to the PDA so that the internet will be shared in to the PDA.

    Any Idea on this?

  • @Krutesh Mody
    Your question itself has half answer.
    The basic GPRS connection allows you to browse internet only on your mobile. You can't browse internet on desktop or laptop using this connection.
    The second option allows you to browse internet on mobile as well as on your desktop or laptop.
  • Krutesh Mody
    Can some one please tell me the difference between the basic and advanced GPRS plans from vodafone? they say I can't use my Nokia E61i as a modem to connect internet on my lap top if I get the basic GPRS (free activation along with 10p/10kb) as it is a WAP based program, but if I opt for advanced GPRS (199/- a month for 5p/10kb) then it is a WWW based program and in that I can use my handset as a modem. I am confused as to what is the difference? Please let me know asap.

    Thanks in advance

  • nev
    could some one tell me why vodafone grps does not work on the htc touch even after the setting
  • love
    for activating gprs in TN circle just send sms "GPRS" to 56789 for 24 hrs pack,in which u will get 24 hrs unlimited gprs for 20/-,amount will be deducted from ur account,

    alternatively u can send "GPRS7" to 56789 for 7 days pack for 75/- u can access internet for 24/7 in that week with no download limited.

    or if u want to go for monthly unlimited plan recharge for 375/- (denomination could be different for different places,but its knows as gprs recharge) gives u validity of 30 days to download and upload any amount.

    also airtel has EDGE enabled network almost everywhere so u get faster browsing and download speed,and everything works even if u are on roaming almost anywhere in india,be it delhi,chennai,kerla,maharshtra,banglore or even MP and CG.

    i m not a great fan of airtel,as its stupid service support,but if u know ur work around and u are on prepaid,thats fair service,until unless other network service provider comes up with competitive packages,i hope vodafone launches 3G in india soon and keep reasonable prices for it.
  • love
    airtel by far the best in gprs internet providing various plans at various places will cost u around 10/- average per day for unlimited access 24/7,no limit for downloading which is good because,every time u visit a website u actually download that page,and if the page is full of pictures it is actually downloaded,and u will be charged for that,10p/10kb(as it is in vodafone or idea etc) means about 10 rupees for 1 mb download if u are using a feature rich full html or xhtml browser as many of the smartphones of present generation support,even for htc there are many plans available and u can get data card too for various other devices,now most of the smartphones come with lots of applications that requires internet connection,so it fair in my opinion for an unlimited plan for all such smartphone users

    1.Call vodafone at 111 & ask them to enable gprs tell them, u r using HTC touch phone.
    2.After enabling GPRS they will ask you to send an SMS as "VL to 52586".
    3.After u send this SMS u will receive a sms saying gprs settings has been send to ur mobile.
    4.Now the real stuff comes, goto settings/connections/network wizard & select the country & service provider e.g India & Hutch/Vodafone & follow the instructions.
    5.After doing the configuration it will ask to restart ur phone.
    6.After restart goto settings/connections/connections/Advanced Tab/Select Network button
    from the drop down select Hutch WAP Settings & apply.
    7.Now goto Tasks tab in connections.
    here u'll see Hutch WAP Settings
    Click edit my proxy server & click Advanced button.
    8.here u'll see diff proxy type & there server ip except for http which u need to add.
    9.Click on HTTP & provide ip as 10.10.1.100 & port as 9401 Save the changes & u are done.
    10.Open IE & njoy ur surfing....... :)))))))))))))

    Hi Raj,
    Steps are really simple.Just call Vodafone @ 111 & ask them to enable GPRS(Please tell them ur mobile handset) coz gprs settings are different for different handsets.
    They will accordingly send the gprs settings to you via SMS.
    Additionaly you need to do below mentioned settings in ur HTC TOUCH connections
    Access Point Settings:

    Proxy: Enabled
    Proxy Address: 10.10.1.100
    Proxy Port: 9401

    I am using vodafone GPRS with no issues.
    I don't understand your issue.
    Cozz I never heard of proxy for wap browser.
    By the way which handset do you use.

    @Naveen
    I am not sure what you are telling.
    I never heard of such an imaginary application which opens every website with normal connection.

    Note:

    I have a GPRS post paid connecting from Vodafone, and am trying to get Gmail to work on it.

    It downloads well, but never goes beyond the first screen. When I read up the Gmail mobile app site, it says that it needs a "direct" internet connection and would not work o WAP proxy.

    The Vodafone GPRS settings come with WAP proxy settings. Anybody knows how to configure Vodafone service to point to direct internet connection?

    Thanks in advance!

    I used both Airtel & Vodafone GPRS services.
    Both are good & vodafone is bit faster!
    Vodafone offers 5MB of free transfer & 25 MMS for monthly rent Rs.49.
    5MB is OK for mobile browsing.
    Personally I have good experience with Vodafone :)
  • For GOD's sake, anyone don't ever use Vodafone GPRS and lose more than 2000 bucks within 24 hours...it's a silly service from Vodafone (previously Hutch) just per 10kb = 10p. Instead for GPRS in mobile, Airtel is better than any other else...with just 5 bucks a day u can access 24hrs continuously.

    Prepaid customers, Please dont follow above post, else you'l loose rs3 per msg to 56789.
    For activating GPRS, you need to sent ACT VL to 997.
    I'm not sure abt postpaid customers.
