I just bought an E61 from Singapore to use with my Softbank (vodafone) line in Tokyo. However, I am having problems finding information for setting the access points.
The E61 is sold as unlocked in Tokyo, so I'm sure there should not be any problems. Anyone know where I can find details on setting up the phone for use in Tokyo? Thanks!
 
You may want to try the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280566&page=2

Towards the end of the page, some folks talk about the APN settings for Softbank (apparently they aren't too widely published).
 
I heard that they aren't exactly too forthcoming with that information, even if you are a Japanese speaking customer. But it doesn't hurt to try.


BTW - if you use an E61 as your primary phone in Japan, won't you lose the capability to text message friends in Japanese? I know the phone supports Chinese characters, but I haven't seen any ROM packs that have Japanese characters -- have you found one, or you are just sticking with English characters?
 
Softbank don't publish WAP/MMS APN to coustmers. also they check User Agnet of phones.
Only Softbank branded phone could access these APNs.

open.softbank APN : flat rate.(if you are flat rate plan)
it will accessable till end of March.
bcz they dont wanna us to use, oooooooooonly for X01HT.

Access Internet　APN : not flat rate
if you insert softbank sim I think you alredy have?
