Settings are usually obtained from the simcard or sent by O2 to the phone.
If you are having data connection issues there are different options to try.
First try cleaning the simcard and rebooting the phone.
Try a soft reset by holding down the sleep and home buttons until the Apple logo appears at which point the phone will start the reboot process.
Try going into settings > general > reset > reset network settings and then reboot the phone.
If you need to enter the settings manually then follow the steps below :
- Tap Settings
- Tap General
- Tap Cellular or Mobile Data
- Tap Cellular Data Network or Mobile Data Network
Now you will see a page headed Cellular Data or Mobile Data.
Enter the settings below:
APN : idata.o2.co.uk (PAYG : payandgo.o2.co.uk)
Username : vertigo
Password : password
Visual Voicemail (PAYG : n/a)
APN : idata.o2.co.uk
Username : vertigo
Password : password
MMS
APN : idata.o2.co.uk (PAYG : payandgo.o2.co.uk)
Username : vertigo
Password : password
MMSC : http://mmsc-ac.mms.o2.co.uk:10021/mmsc
MMS Proxy : 193.113.200.195:8080
MMS Max Message Size : 2097152
MMS UA Prof URL : leave blank
Note : If you have a standard data bolt on rather than an iphone tariff, substitute mobile.o2.co.uk for idata.o2.co.uk
Reboot the phone and you should be good to go.

If the network settings reset isn't working try texting the word "ACTIVE" to 2020 or enter the settings manually as above.

Thank everyone for their assistance. Phone is now working for the first time since it was replaced. This includes visits to apple shop in Braehead in Glasgow which is awkward as my husband is the driver & is disabled. O2 chatline was no better. Pat yourselves on the back & I know whwere toi come next time I have trouble.
I dont know how this forum operates. Do I have to declare the thread cosed?

Thankyou MI5 - at last I have 3G. This is the only thing that has worked. It has taken two days trying to get this sorted.
