thanx for your reply aniel1,
could you please further elaborate which URL are we talking about??... when i get the error, it doesn't gives any URL address. if what you tried to say was sign in with Windows Live on desktop PC then i did it already and it works fine... but doesn't get signed in on my UNIVERSAL.
am i missing anything?

farehmani... have you tried this...
connect the unit to PC via USB and let it sync with AS. Once completed, open Live. It will open GPRS to sync, cancel the GPRS connection via the bubble on the top bar. Once cancelled, Live should try to sync via AS and it should be successful.
Hopefully once it's fully synced with the server you shouldn't have anymore problems connecting. Let us know how you get on.

hi SpyderTracks,
i havn't had tried this solution so far, i would love to give it a go... but at the moment,,, i'm using vista and i am unable sync it with Windows mobile device center... i don't get the sync option. just the file transfer.
do i have to experiment your suggestion in winXP?

Interesting... my flatmate is having the same problems in Vista for some reason we can't seem to work out... that's one of the many reasons I returned to XP I know it's old but at least it works
I don't know if it will work without WMDC recognising the device, but in theory it should anyway, so long as it's recognised by Vista as a mobile device... in theory Give it a go, let me know. Good luck!
I can't remember if you tried with wireless, but you can try that too after disconnecting the GPRS connection, just connect to wireless and try syncing. Sorry if that was the original problem, I'm really tired and my memory is failing me.

All i can suggest you is to find another betatester and tell him to vote this feedback: 252858.. I can't do anithing else.. I'm sorry.

cheak your connection setup

You may need to check whether your WIFI connections, or 3G or GPRS connections are set to "work" or "the internet".
also check our internet exceptions and and see if you are inadvertantly blocking your IP address ranges.
you could also try and check that your "network card" setting is using "the internet" as compared to the specific WIFI AP connection type.
I had similar problems and its likely to be due to this, you need to really have them set to "The Internet" in your WIFI, in your AS and in your GPRS or 3G internet connections.
I only use it on WIFI at home or work, NextG or 3G is just to expensive to use, all need to be set to "The Internet" and when the 3G/NextG connection bubble comes up, I just cancel it and then it goes to the WIFI connection.

Thank you for your help... But believe me: It's not a network problem.. For a lot of reason..
It doesn't work even by my ADSL (using Active Sync), It works ONLY when i delete my user/pass and i connect for the first time! Every time i want to use i have to do this workaround... So it's not a connection problem.. Because it works.. ONLY the first time..

It needs a web data connection

Anybody know why after connecting via MSN and then signing it, it keeps wanting to redial to connect to the internet. I'm sick of looking and seeing my phone connected - I dread to think what my bill will be!!

thank you..................

Same here
Same here can not connect at all...only WiFi

live messenger
i installed this one in Leo VC2 rom, it works fine with 3gb data conn. did not try with WIFI..
the only one thing i hate with wlm is that it copies all the list to contacts, i have around 200 contacts in my messenger, since my business involves chatting with ppl around the world.. and all of them are in my contact.
i tried to delete some from the contacts, RESULT: some of the contacts got deleted from MSN..
hope someone comes up with an idea to stop that..

well
does anyone know how to get MSN that works under WIFI and not 3G?

This works perfectly, but it is MSN and not live messenger. The latest live messenger is not transferring contacts, if you don't want to.

thanks,
Can you pls attach directions for installation...

Issues with Windows Live Messenger

I have just installed a nice TNT 5.0 on my Qtek (Cingular 8125 like but called Qtek 9100 on Colombia).
I´m having an extrange issue regarding the GPRS-Edge internet connection of Windows Live Messenger, and I´m not sure if this could be because our cellphone provider, because of the newer 2.69.11 Radio I´m using or because of any other reason.
Actually the GPRS-Edge connection (It says Edge so it must be edge) it´s working like a charm on Internet Explorer or Opera. But when I try to conect to a Windows or Microsoft related website via Internet Explorer or Opera, the connection can´t be established (say http://mobile.live.com). This happens also when trying to connect to Windows Live Messenger using GPRS or Edge. It does not connect at all.
It´s almost like my cellphone provider has some exceptions on their gprs connection that makes connecting to a Windows or Microsoft server almost impossible.
Nevertheless, there is a walkthrough that curiously worked out and got me really pissed off as it happened a few times before I definetly could find out what was I doing that got everything working...
If I connect to the internet via Wi-Fi (By the way i´m not sure i must press the wi fi button twice on the command manager in order to get it up and running), I can do both things: log into Windows Live Messenger and use the full featured messenger client (send files, pictures, see avatars, send voice, etc) and log into any microsoft website (say http://mobile.live.com).
Til here, everything goes to the cellphone provider.
Here comes the weird thing:
If I turn off the Wireless network after login into messenger, the software automatically looks up for the lost connection and re-connects to the web using GPRS (EDGE) and manages to login successfull, so I can see messenger contacts and chat with them using gprs (edge). But I loose all the internet brownser ability to browse microsoft domains (mobile.live.com
I´m not sure if this has to do with the CHAP or the PAP GPRS autentication. I have tried both without waiting any time before attempts, with no luck.
Also, I´m not sure if this could be related to the EDGE network, as I previously owned a symbian sonyEricsson P910a that did not supported Edge but could connect with no trouble to Messenger through IMPlus.
I´ve also tryed the IMPlus version on the pocket pc with the same bad result as using directly Windows Live Messenger.
Any ideas?
Could it be possible to disable the EDGE network and use exclusively GPRS via Regedit?

Trying everything now. Even downgraded and upgraded again...
I can surf the web now using IE, even on the http://mobile.live.com site, but when trying to use Windows Live, i get a connection error and then a message saying
"Windows Live was unable to establish anInternet connection. Please check your Internet settings and make sure that you have access to data services under your billing plan. If you need help, please contact your mobile service provider.".
The incredible thing is that i´m actually using messenger beta directly on pocket internet explorer and it works, not quite nice, but it does, using wi-fi.
So why Windows Live can´t use this connection to log in?
Now, using GPRS connection, I try to log into http://mobile.live.com and it took too much saying opening... but it made it. But I was not soo lucky when i pushed forward to try to access the mail link on that site (that worked on wi-fi) as it got stuck at opening forever and finally it displayed an error. Same on any link under that page. It seems that it takes too long and crashes. But still I can go to any other site (Tryed www.sun.com right away and it downloaded quite fast a 200kb front page, so i´m not sure that this could be a Radio Issue.)
My Info:
ROM: 6.0.0.0 WWE
DATE 2/02/07
RADIO 2.69.11
PROTOCOL 4.1.13.30
ExtROM: Empty.
I´m trying windows-live-conection-fix from Faria right now...
Still when i try to login to messenger using windows live it says immediatelly There´s a connectivity problem.
I´m

i can't determine what is the exact error do you have, but i want to say it is working with me either with WiFi or GPRS, check out your settings carefully and try to set the settings as usual (don't use network wizard) and test.

I also can have intermittant connection problems using Messenger. It occurs on my Wizard (GPRS and Wifi) and on various PCs too. Before blaming the Wizard, consider it might be a problem with Microsoft and their servers. Usually on either PC or Wizard it will connect after a couple of tries for me. It could be that your provider has blocked the relevent ports or servers on your GPRS but I'm sure we would have heard from other users of your carrier if that is the case.

Ok. I´m from Colombia, and my carrier is called Comcel. There´s no Network wizard available for it at the moment.
Before unlocking my sim and messing up with the first wizard love upgrade (unfortunatelly i can´t find the original rom and probably i will need to extract it from my fathers phone if i can get a hand on it, but still will need to read all about it first...) I was able to connect to MSN without any issues at all. Even on my old symbian phone I used IM+ without any issues. Now that I upgraded it´s getting quite difficult.
Actually I can connect now without any trouble after a soft reset, using Wi-Fi, and it´s really nice. But I can´t get it to connect through GPRS (It´s definetly not a carrier issue as my brother has a WM5 wizard too that I won´t touch before I have this figured out first, and he can connect without any issues, quite fast, using an old 2.17 radio version on his G4).
The strange thing is that I can fly through the web (i´m now installing gmail-g.jar directly on my phone through gprs).
The strange thing is that when I go to www.microsoft.com or mobile.live.com i get stuck on Opening... and the GPRS connection goes too slow. Probably checking something...
It´s like under gprs there something going.
I´m aware that all the symptoms are saying something about carrier permits... but still with my sim card on my brother´s phone (it´s not my line) it works without any issues.
Now, I have started up the Wireless LAN again and it logged in right away on windows live messenger (it´s really nice...).
Then I went offline again, get the wireless off on the cellphone, get the messenger up and running on my vista computer, and then try to login into the phone using again gprs....
Miracle!!! I get logged out from vista!!!! but it doesn´t get all the way there on the mobile phone, as it get´s stuck on signing in... (Not enought)...
Now logged of from vista, I try to login again on the cellphone, no luck...
And loose the hability to navigate into mobile.live.com
Ok.
I do it one more time from scratch.
I soft reset my device...
then I go to internet explorer mobile and type http://mobile.live.com/
It starts the GPRS (Edge) connection right away... and goes to Opening... on the status bar... No luck.
But still I can download mail from the java applet of Gmail, and go to any other website, and even load google maps on the device under gprs...
So it´s a Windows Live issue that seems to have something against my gprs connection.
I was wondering if it has anything to do with CHAP or PAP autentication, but on my carrier they dont really know as they are charging me with their calls, as they don´t care, and I have tryed both but there seems to be no difference.
Anyway on my brother´s wizard the settings are exactly the same as mine on the gprs conection...
I will try to make my cellphone gprs connection work like a modem for my pc and then I will try to navigate the web and login into messenger from my pc using my cellphone gprs connection to see if i can do it, and then I will get back at you.

our network had this issue before, but they solved this later (thats b4 1-2 years)

Ok. I´m gonna try, one by one, the different radio versions that are on the radio-only forums.
Still if you know where can I get my hands on radios 2.17 and 2.49 (2.49.11) is the one that came originally with the phone and it´s the one that is on my father´s untouched wizard...
I´ll get back on you if i found anything...
By the way, does it has anything to do with the regional settings? Mine is Spanish Colombia even when i´m using your TNT 5.0 OS. Still I have run the keyboard spanish patch in order to get my keyboard layount right and i´m still only two signs off on the keyboard but it´s almost ok.
I know that this is not the place, but i´m off on the "D" key that it´s suppost to be a "+" but instead it´s showing the "Euro" symbol (don´t have that on my latin american pc), and on the C key it´s supposed to be a "Ç" instead there´s the "+" sign.

I had this issue the other day, luckily I work for the provider. The issue is with the gprs apn that you are using. If ur provider has multiple apns, then try another. If not u going to have to wait until they resolve their issues.
Dont worry, it isnt the phone and it isnt the ROM. I had the problem too when I just put tnt 5 on my device. Its a problem with the provider.

Thanks Mitchie55. So I will rest my case trying to flash, reflash, upgrade and downgrade radios, and try to trick out the registry for Windows Live security policies... Anyway, what´s exactly a GPRS APT and how can I check if my carrier has more than one GPRS APT? Are those ports? Can I check them under the GSM Test Mode screen (*#*#364#*#*)?

After all my messing around with Windows Live Messenger´s connection issues, i came along a Registry String that got my attention.
It´s not that I want to panic everybody, but on the TNT 5.0 Profesional with HTC Today release there´s a registry line that states:
HKLM\Services\Windows Live\Platform\Passport\PolicyExpiry
String 2007-09-25T19:16:57.9251948Z
I´m wondering what will happen on the 25th of September at 7:17:00 pm UTM...
Any ideas?

Its APN - Access Point Name. Thats what is needed when u create a Cellular GPRS connection to connect to the internet.

im having the same issues, im with rogers wireless in canada
everything works except for the windows mobile live
i updated the software and i'm running ver. 10.6.0033.0600
on an x7500/athena updated to wm6 (originally shipped with wm5 from expansys)
i contacted my provider and they said they dont have another access point name for me to use other then the default one they provide
and they claimed it was a windows mobile live issue,
i tried this in my treo 750 as well and still nothing is happening
thats 2 devices now that dont work ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....
i cant figure out what i'm doing wrong.

use this Network setup tool and see what will be happend

Fixed it now thanks, but my Windows Live won't sign in, and I can't install my onspeed mobile becuase the onspeed website doesn't recognize my browser.

Windows Live Messenger comes up with 'synchronization failed' when i try to sign in.

email problem(or better 3g problem)

every time i want to send/recieve my mail it want to use 3g although i am connected to wlan(that has intenet) that is sometimes happens with msn too.
i have htc touch diamond latest official rom.
any ideas why is this happening and how to fix this??

Mostly it is because you bought a phone, not a wlan terminal. Service providers do not make any money if the default setting on the phone is set to access free wifi and not their pay data connection.
Try nodata , to switch of your data connection when you wish to only use wifi.
http://www.modaco.com/content/pocket-pc-software/246171/new-free-utility-nodata/

yeah but i havent had this problem before(i mean with older roms),also i have deactivted every single mobile network(i called my provider and they disabled me all network connections) so than i get error that windows wasnt able to recieve files(offcourse you idiot,try using wlan),so so are there any idea to force windows to use wlan(because it wont even try)?
oh and when using opera everything is ok.
edit: i cannot download app,can you please upload it here?
