What is WAP and GPRS?
WAP and GPRS are ways your phone can send and receive data. You need to have your phone set up properly for WAP and GPRS so that you can use Simtext. Most new phones will come with their WAP settings already loaded so you will probably not need to do anything. Older phones sometimes require the user to download the correct WAP/GPRS settings. The networks can do this ‘over the air’ by SMS and it just takes a few seconds. The contact details for your network are given in the Simtext User Guide, and on the Simtext help site. We can also send you the settings ourselves but you’ll still need to contact your network if you don’t have your account enabled for GPRS data. We highly recommend that if you have any doubts about whether your WAP settings are configured or not, contact your network prior to downloading Simtext.
