Prologue
Telkomsel Flash is product of Telkomsel for broadband Internet service with 3.5G or commonly called by HSDPA. But before we got into depth for maximizing its performance please make sure you got HSDPA signal in your area. Or it will be a common GPRS data transfer that you only got after register it.
Standby Phase - Activate and Setting GPRS
(You can skip this phase if you already has activate and have your GPRS setting)
*Activate GPRS on Telkomsel
Before you configuring Telkomsel Flash make sure your GPRS setting already activate. To activate your GPRS, send an SMS with words “GRPS” to “6616”. It should be not long after those message sent and you will get a reply from those “6616” service message. Those message will say something like this, ”Your confirmation has been received, please wait at maximum time 2x24 hours for confirmation activation”. After you received this message, we just need a little waiting. Usually it just takes around 5-10 minute to received another confirmation about your GPRS was already activated. The message more or less will said like this, “You’re GPRS now is active….” After received this message I suggested restarting your mobile phone, because in my scenario my mobile phone still can’t connect to GPRS until it restarted.
*GPRS Setting on Telkomsel
There are two different ways to set GPRS, automatic setting (provided by Telkomsel) or manual setting. For easiest way I suggest use the 1st option, with send SMS with a formats:

*GPRS Setting on Telkomsel
There are two different ways to set GPRS, automatic setting (provided by Telkomsel) or manual setting. For easiest way I suggest use the 1st option, with send SMS with a formats:
“S(space)Mobile Phone Trade-Mark(space)Type of Mobile Phone” to “5432”.
For example:
“S NOKIA 3220” send to “5432”.
After you send this message there are reply from “5432” that said, ”Your confirmation has been received, we will send you GPRS configuration and please use this number “1111” as password protection.” (No complain! More or less that I remembered is just like this). After you received this message then you’ll received your GPRS configuration. Just simply input those passwords that you received from the last SMS. End of automatic setting, you can use Telkomsel GPRS now. For manual settings I think this is simple than writing this article (dapit getting tired of writing), we just need to find 4 main aspects and input with some text. They are Access Point, User Name, Password and Data Bearer. Input those data just like in this form:
Access Point (APN) : telkomsel
Username : wap
Password: wap123
Data Bearer: GPRS
It should be worked, if not try it again and again. Find it by yourself; it is your mobile phone eh? Don’t depend too much on another people for your own privacy tools! (I’m sorry, the author become more stressed out because too much writing). If you stuck by this manual setting then you can go to GRAPARI (Telkomsel Customer Service) and leave this matter to them. This is end of manual setting session; you can use your full-fledged GPRS now.
Main Phase – Telkomsel Flash Registration and Configuration
1st things to do, Register! After you full-fledged has access to GPRS then send message with formats “FLASH” to “3636”. Not so long after that you will received some messages. After received some of those multiple SMS your 3G and 3.5G already active now, restart your mobile phone to reconfirmed.
2nd There are two variety of Telkomsel Flash, they are time based and volume based.
*For time based, Set your Access Point Name (APN) with words “Flash” and just leave username and password with blank (no text). Automatically you will be redirected to Telkomsel Flash in your first browsing, you can chose any option time based package on there.
*For volume based, you must refill your Telkomsel Flash Point before using it. (For Simpati and AS only, for Halo I think you need to confirm it on GRAPARI). To refill Telkomsel Flash Point just simply send a SMS with format: “FLASH ON (nominal)” to “3636”. The nominal are 5000(5Mb), 20000(30Mb), 50000(100Mb) and 100000(300Mb). After you refill this Flash point, all of your GPRS access cost will be deducted from flash point, not your regular account (convenient, eh?). Also anytime you can check your flash point by pressing *889#. In addition for volume based usually you don’t need any setting (APN, username and password) but for exception just don’t use APN “Flash” or you’ll be redirected to time based. But I guess I will write standard setting for volume based (Although I think this is not very useful) APN: “Internet”, for username and password leave those to blank (no text).
End Phase
