Setting up Fido WAP/E-mail/MMS on Nokia Handsets (Nokia Configurator Tutorial)
For common settings to some Nokia (& other Brands) phones, see this POST by fidog.
For phones not listed there, you can use Nokia's online configurator. To do so, you must...
1. Go to Nokia Canada's Website (http://www.nokia.ca) and select the desired language.
2. Click on the "Support" Tab.
3. Click on "Get Settings" under the Browsing and MMS section.
4. Scroll to the middle of the page and click on "Get standard settings".
5. In the new pop-up window read and accept the service disclaimer by clicking "ACCEPT TERMS AND CONTINUE".
6. Click on "Start". Then follow the on screen instructions.
The following will be a step by step example for setting up GPRS & MMS on a Nokia N70.
1. Select your phone model after completing Step #6 above. Then click "Next".
2. Select "Fido" from the drop-down list of Network providers and click "Next".
3. Enter the corresponding Security Measure phrase and enter your phone number in the format +1[Area Code][Phone Number], then hit "Order Settings".
4. Wait for a text message to arrive on your Nokia handset and follow the instructions on the webpage.
It should also be noted that for MMS/GPRS to work, it must've been enabled by Fido Customer Service. Dial 611 from your handset or 1-888-481-FIDO (3436) from anywhere to activate if you have not already done so.

hey guys, the SE tutorial didn't work for my region. Canada, fido provider, vancouver region. I needed the MMS settings. under the choices of phones it did show k800i but after i filled out all the required information and the last step is to send settings to phone, it took 2 mins loading and then said that they were unable to fulfill the request.
Can anyone give me the settings?
