I use a chat application everyday but im having alot of trouble staying logged on compared to my K750, so I think its a 3G thing, is there a way to use only gprs for applications but 3g for downloads?

this is becoming a popular question!

settings, connectivity, mobile networks, GSM/3G networks, GSM Only

you can only either have 3g on or off, you cant have it set per application

Argh!! But then that would mean my video calls wont come through!!
But thanks Ill see how it works, I always thought that when 3g is lost gprs is automatically on.... doesnt look like!!

@ Mass I just noticed something....
Connectivity-data comunication-sms access ....
The packet switched option would mean gprs right?? meaning send sms's over gprs making it cheaper??? Am I right?

Anyone try this?

So... you want to use the features of a 3G network, but don't want to use a 3G network to do so?

@786KBR I know this is a bit off topic, but is the K800i out in S.A. already?

Also, approxamitely, how many KB's does your MXIT use?

Thanks

When you send sms over gprs you still pay the same because the provider counts your messages on its gateway. This message was posted from a WAP device
