and it worked b4? hmmm

try saving the setting again:

you can get the settings yourself just send an SMS with:

"Set <phonemake> gprs"

so to msg for a nokia phone would be "Set nokia gprs"

to 8888

and then save the settings (it works with nokias, dont know about other makes)

Sending a request for OTAP to 8888 like that will only work if you are an Optus customer, and will not if you are with Telstra or Vodafone.

File format unknown will generally come up if your homepage address, or the address of the URL you are going to is incomplete or incorrect. When loading WAP pages, the URL should end with a .wml extension.

What is the EXACT URL that you are trying to download on to your phone?
