How to activate internet connection of unconfigured cell phone in the Philippines

Philippines uses different SIM cards that are being provided by Globe, Smart and Sun to connect cell phones to their services. Their internet services and GPRS can be automatically configured and available in many cell phones using their SIM cards, however, many different kinds of cell phones (they usually use unknown OS) that have invaded the market can not be recognized by these cell phone networks, thus they can't be automatically configured to access internet and GPRS. They must be configured manually in order to access the said services. 
Below are the suggested steps to enable internet/GPRS connection using these cell phones:

1. Go to the 'Settings' of your cell phone and click 'Connections'.

2. Check 'GPRS' to enable it, and in the network connection account setting, enter the following data (if the network account list is full, you may edit one of them and activate it):

(Note: the APN remains the most important data to be present and entered correctly in the configuration)
