GPRS is used by smart phones to allow it to connect to your carrier which therefore allows you to roam. It is a wireless phone network that allows you to make calls from your smart phone and also lets you receive voicemails. GPRS is also able to carry your own voice over airwaves. Sometimes GPRS needs to be turned on (opened) in the event that it is turned off (closed) so that you can choose a network to connect to.
Here is how you open your GPRS
From there you should choose 'Network Selection' and then click on 'Default Setup' which will open up your phone's network configuration options.
Scroll down the list until you reach 'Manual' to change the default setting for automatically selecting the network.
Choose the network that you wish to connect to and make sure that the connection is successful. You should test the connectivity to the new network by making a phone call or sending a text message.
