GPRS connection difficulties to Vodafone.de

The problem is that the GPRS web connection is refused or is impossible untill the VPA Compact is soft reset, or quicker, cycled through flight mode on then off. The GPRS web connection capability is there, but just needs this "reset" from time to time.
2 other colleagues using Vodafone and O2 on VPA Compact/XDA Mini find the same problem also, (so atleast it is consistent). ;-)
Should a ROM update to the 1.13.01 fix this? My VPA c is 1.11.01 GER. I do not want to update and risk ruining a perfectly working PDA if there is not a need. I am not by nature, comfortable in changing ROM versions unsupported on my phone..
Many thanks for any help you can give.
Cheers, Julian

hi ,
i have the same problem "from time to time" . I have a xda mini with
ROM Version : 1.13.01 and Radio 1.13.00
anybody has an idea ?
greets

same problem here with 1.13 radio rom. I upgraded from 1.12, hoping it would help, but did not much for me. I did read on the forum that it did improve for some others... it's worth giving it a try.

response from any of the experts....?
This now confirms that more people have an issue with GPRS connectivity. Strange thing is that the issue occurs with very variable frequency. When my VPA Compact was new it was seldom happening, but after a week of use and a few soft resets the issue happens more often than not.
Can any of the experts out there help us. The Telecom providers are not helping with this bug.
Cheers, Julian

GPRS/3G Does not connect automatically the first time...

Hi,
I'm pretty familiar with smartphones/pocket pc/windows mobile, but I can't figure this one out...
I picked up a Treo 750 this week and it has the latest WM6.1 ROM and Latest Radio firmware.
For some reason, it will not connect to GPRS/EDGE/3G data on its own. It gives an error about not being able to connect, to which you can then click "dismiss". If I then go to data connections and edit the connection and just click next, next, finish - data will work fine - until the phone is reset and you start over again...
I've tried WM5, 6 and 6.1 ROMS and 5 different radios and they all do the same thing...
Anyone?

I have a bit different problem, but seems like yours.. sometimes, it doesnt try to connect, no failure message, but no try, my resolution is having spb gprs monitor, which i ever used, even i had this problem... in this case, only click connect and everything is ok... sometimes it doesnt connect or says message like yours on my other HTC XDAs (9000,9100....) but spb solved it everytime...

aaischa, I tried SPB but no luck...
Interestingly, I tried downgrading to WM5 and it works fine with that...
Anyone else having this problem?

Ok, so I ended up making a Mortscript to automatically connect. I attached it to this message in case anyone else needs it...

thanks, I had e the same problem

if only connect.mscr could run by itself
It would be great if connect.mscr could run when ever our treo's with hermes radios lost service. Mine with 154.07.00 once it looses service completely will not reconnect. If this script could run when the unit is not connected say every 10 minutes or so life would be good.

I have the same problem. Running 6.1 on the Telecom XT network in New Zealand...simply going into connections (as it says in the first post) and not doing anything solves it, but it is annoying. Any better solutions?
Radio: 1.56.70.11
ROM: WM6.1 (Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD)

Universal + WM6 + WiFi

Hello.
I have an O2 Xda Exec with Ranju's v7.7 WM6.1
Everything works perfect except the wifi.
Why can't I make it work?
I open the connection manager, push the wifi icon and nothing happens! It stays off!
Can you give me some advice?
Thanks in advance!

I haven´t any problem with wifi on Ranju v7.7.
reinstall the ROM.

Actually that happened with every wm6 roms I have put in the past.
For example ranju's v7,6.
Do you think that this happens because I have the sdhc driver enabled?

Hello again.
I did some research on my Universal and found out that my device doesn't recognise the wifi module.
I ran the IPer, clicked on adapter info and there is nothing there! (Maybe that's because I can't switch the wifi on. I don't know)
Then, I ran wififofum and there is nothing as a device..
Can anyone please tell me what to do? Please, I'm desperate!!!!!!!

Is there any chance that you are using the Battery Status plug-in? I've experienced exactly the same problem (can't switch WiFi on) with both versions 1.04 & 1.05. If yes, just try to uninstall it.

Unfortunately I'm not using this plugin..
The only today plugins I'm using is the HTC Home VGA, Resco today and SMB GPRS Monitor.
I also do not use the overclocking application embedded with the ROM and I have the watchdog disabled.
Any other clues??? Please...

i have the exact same problem, with every wm6 i installed, now i tried the 6.1 and thats no good, my pda is useless without wifi
any ideas are welcome, i dont want to go back to a wm5 rom

anyone found the cause of this behavior?
I can sometimes switch WLAN on, after the "switching on" time, I turn my Universal off, then on, and WLAN works.

I have the same problem. It started with Tomal's 8.2 ROM and I think it could be when I started using SDHC. Another thing happens to me is that even if, in Stenigs-->System, the Performance is set to 624Mhz, when I test it with CPUID.exe the processor is working at 520Mhz.
Has anyone tryed to downgrade to WM5?
I've read that somthing may be erased in the UNI EEPROM that is not reinstalled with ROMs. But I've "no idea" about it.

a lot of ROMs has affect by WiFi issue when You protect with WPA PSK. Please search for thread : WiFi WPA-PSK Workaround and BubbleFix Service (CAB and OEM) - STABLE ( 1 2 3 ... Last Page) and install the cab. WiFi will run perfectly

Thanks for your help but my problem is that the wlan doesn't turn the WIRELESS LAN on, not the ecryption used. Without wifi, the Universal is just a very BIG cell.

I've even tried this WIFIService.cab but it hasn't solved the problem.

does not seem to work for Tomal's latest ROM

8125 keeps losing connection - needs reboot

I have an 8125 with the XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 FINAL ROM and the 5.1 update. I used the Cingualr GPRS CAB and the phone works, but when I try to download Outlook email, if downloads a few messages and then the connection is lost. No phone connection, nothing. If I reboot it usually works again.
Anyone know what might be wrong?
I have disassembeld to replace the case but seemed to work fine for a while.
I did try a few diferent ad ins and had a lot a problems so I reflashed T-moible 2.26, the XDA ver5 and 5.1 updates all over agian an added nothing new, but still having problems with nexpected reboots and this lost connection problem.
Thanks

QuickGPS stop working very suspiciously

Ok, this is really weird. My QuickGPS just stop working 2 days ago (on New Year Eve)... I get this error "connection failed. Please try again later"
I don't know if this is due to my connection or the connection to QuickGPS through Canada. Can someone from Canada (Montreal if possible) check this for me and let me know if you can update your QuickGPS?
---edit----
Ok, this is really weird QuickGPS work on Elite Project, but not on NATF...
thanks

Hmmm, I have the same problem too... I'm from Singapore btw.

NATF v3.2 and it QuickGPS works fine. I have had issues with it downloading new info if it was connected via USB, but not specific to a ROM. Disconnect the USB, and it downloaded immediately.

it does that alot for me too. just give it a while and try again later. works for me.

QuickGPS has always given me issues. It'll work for awhile, then one day I'll get the connection error message. I've discovered that a soft reset always fixes the problem immediately for me.
