If I dont have mobile web on my plant, is there a way I could try mobile web still? Or does it have to be included in your plan? If you are able to use it without a plan, how much is it?

You can use Mobile Web without subscribing to it, but you need to find the ip address and port number of a free WAP server and change your phone settings to use Mobile Web at that ip and port number. Look around on these boards for some. I have tried a few on another phone but they didn't work for me, but I subscribe to Verizon's Mobile Web on my own phone. It's $5 a month alone, or you can get it cheaper when you combine text messaging and mobile web (I think it's $7 or $8 for Mobile Web and 250 text messages). With or without subscribing to Mobile Web, it deducts from your minutes while you are connected to it.

But, if I dont have the VZW Mobile Web on my plan, can I still use it, if so, how much is it?

I just tried it out and I got

"Security is not enabled. Enabling security can take several minutes. Proceed?"

I hit yes and get

"Security error:key not recognized"

So I guess it has to be on my plan to use it

It sounds like you still have the Verizon Mobile Web settings. You will probably have to find out howto enter service mode on your Samsung and then look for the Mobile Web settings and change them to a free WAP server.

I tried the free wap settings, but they didnt work...

The free WAP settings will enabled free WAP access but will not allow you to access Verizon Mobile Web service. It has to be enabled on your account in order to use it.

Which IP and port are working, cause I tried using some in the thread above and they didn't work...

Do I have to have a homepage set also?

Most of the older IP's and Ports don't work anymore. There are a few others floating around this forum you can try out. And yes, you will need a homepage set.

I can't figure out how to get a homepage set on my Samsung A670...
