Configure Samsung SGH-D880 for Internet

As usual I cant get through to Safaricom 100 yet I need my phone Samsung SGH-D880 configured for web access. Maybe someone in Skunkworks has a similar phone and is already configured, then I can call you to assist me. Or just maybe there is someone from Safaricom who might want to assist me or call me back on 0723 656 445. Nick Wambugu

Send a blank SMS to 445, you should be sent the settings automatically in a short while. BR, S -- Sent from my socks®

Sorry - I forgot to mention I sent the blank SMS to 445 and got three messages back that I was asked to save but it still did not work. I think the problem is about one message overwriting the other one - How can I deal with this? Nick 2009/11/26 Steve Muchai <smuchai@gmail.com>

Did you reboot phone? Check on profiles and activate accordingly - the auto message works fine. Dont have Sumsang though. Wt. 2009/11/26 Steve Muchai <smuchai@gmail.com>

Hi, Am sorry if this discourages you, but most of the Samsungs 880 have issues with internet access. I had an experience with one, I dumped it for a Berry and later a Nokia. The software it has I think has issues. Regards; James Muendo Leerick Office & Tech Supplies P.O Box 28016 - 00200 Nairobi,Kenya.

I hope you did not play around with some Samsung short codes, which are easily available online! I played around with them and deleted all the data including the Wap settings. Sending an SMS to 232 (I'm on Zain) I'm told that I can't get the settings as my phone is nit configured. Just check your IMEI and see whether it's giving you 15 different digits, if it's giving you all zeors, you are in hot soup, like I'm. So I need to get a new handset.
