Configure MMS, GPRS, 3G, etc. (Globe, Smart, Sun)

There are times when I change a mobile phone or switch my SIM cards into another phone, then I have to re-configure the phone settings all over again. Configuring a network provider’s additional services like MMS, GPRS, 3G, mobile internet, and other stuff like that. And every time I configure my device, I have to look for the settings at their website, which I may add, a little frustrating. Some sites are easy to navigate, but some are like a puzzle maze. So without further ado, I present to you mobile users here in the Philippines, the direct page where you can find the configuration settings for your network provider.

The configuration guide from Globe Telecoms is handy for those who like to manually set their mobile phone settings. Near the bottom of the page you can see a selection of handsets that support their services: Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Motorola, Alcatel, LG, Panasonic, Philips, and Siemens. Just click on the brand of your mobile phone, then select your model on the next page. Their configuration guide is usually in PDF format.

Smart Buddy prepaid has an automatic based configuration for setting your phone. The same is true for Smart Gold subscribers.

Note: Most Smart handset packages already have preloaded settings.

To activate and download 3G/GPRS/MMS settings on your cellphone, text

SET [phonemodel] to 211.
Upon receiving the configuration settings, choose to “Save All” to save the settings on your phone.

To get a list of supported handsets, key in SET LIST to 211

And last but not the least, to those who are using the unlimited texting power of Sun Cellular. Their site page is easy to use, just select your mobile phone brand and model, then click search.

So there, happy configuring.
