Packet data is GPRS, gprs term is no more used by Nokia just to differentiate between EDGE(E- GPRS and GPRS), Packet data is common name for both.

so what to do. when i send sms to vodafone they give reply wrong phone type. what to do how to get settings. i tried settings from Nokia.co.in but they are not working please help. i have nokia 5300
 
send an SMS:

VL to 52586

or try:

ACT VL to 111

After Sending the message, u ll get a reply by message confirming activation. Then you will receive the Vodafone Live settings for GPRS and MMS. Save it. thats it... It should work.

(I sent the first one- and Working fine for me. 🙂 If the first one doesnt work,try the next one)
 
Maybe you should visit a Vodafone shop (A company owned shop). You say your phone is not supported this page says otherwise Vodafone Compatible Phones | Handset Manufacturer | Vodafone Live!
Check out the Nokia page Nokia India - Support Settings specifically for your piece.
If the settings for 5300 don’t work try those for 5200 🙂.
If that does not work then contact Nokia service as there could be something wrong with your piece wrt gprs, for the nokia site spec details say it supports gprs as does the Vodafone site.
