Nexus 5 Android 5.1 update 40127 not working

Hi there,

 

My Nexus 5 updated to Android 5.1 after which I received a text message from Vodafone:

 

"It looks like you've swapped your sim or updated your device. To continue using data and sending picture messages, you need to update your settings manually, as your device doesn't support automatic settings updates. Get started at vodafone.co.uk/settingsinfo"

 

I follow the link and try to text WEB to 40127 but the SMS does not go through at all. I try to look up my device but LG Nexus 5 is not listed. Could you please tell me how I can get my settings back, this is all very annoying!

 

Thanks,

Kay

I have just updated my Nexus 5 and got exactly the same problem.

 

Please at least give us the manual apn details?

Just found the APN details at the link below and it worked for me

http://www.geeksquad.co.uk/articles/vodafone-apn-settings

 

You have to create a new APN pull down from the top of your phone click the cog wheel. Click...More

Then Mobile Networks

Access point names

Click the + in a circle at the top and create a new access point

 

Enter the details as described from the link...

For APN type just enter * 

 

When you think you have the details correct press the three dots top right and save it

Then press your back button and then select your newly created APN.

 

Hope that helps

Paul
