Got the K7000i on Vodafone a few weeks back. I'd been using GPRS for
browsing and email with no problem until a few days ago. Now it hangs when I
try to connect. The "GPRS in range" icon is always on and even the "usuable
GPRS" triangle is on occasionally but it still won't connect.

Vodafone say my account is still showing WAP and GPRS access and that there
are no network faults. I've tried using the phone at different cells as I've
been travelling this week.

I haven't changed any settings so it's starting to look like a fault. Any
ideas before I use the warranty (I've just gone over my initial 14 days)?

This may be silly but have you tried turning off the phone and taking out
the battery and sim card? Actually worked one time for me!!

Mine is working fine on Vodafone network.
Are you sure the settings are OK?
Have you used the automatic sms system to get your settings right?
www.sonyericsson.com/support, than enter K700i, search for WAP and of you
go.

Thanks for responses, guys.

No idea what happened as the original settings sent by sms were working fine
for days before the problem. In the end, I deleted the old settings and had
them resent which sorted everything.
