Just wondering if the board administrator(s) could possibly add the Cingular 8125 as a phone selection option on the Profile screen. I don't find it as a choice yet that is what type of Wizard I have. Thanks.

Would there be any negatives if I ran some of the Cingular cabs on my TyTn?
Particularly I want MMS and GPRS but not sure if they change reg keys that are changed from one device to the next.
I've tried setting up the Treo with the same GPRS settings I've used on the Wizard but it still doesn't work. Has anyone else run into this problem? Please share your settings.
sure
you just have to enter either wap.voicestream.com or internet2.voicestream.com in the Access point settings. I run a 750 with T-mobile for a while now with no problems.
I'm having the same problem with the Fido network. The settings that always work in WM5 devices won't work on this this unit. Can anyone shed some light on this? Are there some settings in the registry that need to be edited?
Nope. No reg settings needed. Just configure with the standard T-Mobile settings and go.
I've got it to work, somehow. I left the settings as they are and did a soft reset a couple of time and it worked. I actually gave up but it worked in the end without me realizing.
Another thing I've learned by messing with the settings, I can actually sign into Pocket MSN by taking out the proxy settings! This makes me very happy. I've also tried the same thing on my previous phone, the T-mobile MDA (Wizard) and the ended up with the same result!
I've just got a Treo 750 and I am on T-Mobile but I do not know what settings to enter to get onto the internet. Any ideas? Thanks.
if you have t-mobile, the setting should be loaded automaticly (it did to with my Treo at the german T-mobile). Or you use the manual on https://shop.dangaard.de/files/Qtek/Qtek.htm
There you can also download a setting cab which you can install - this will automaticly install the settings.
Hi, I have a unlocked Cingular Treo 750 and none of the settings that work in every other WM5 phone that I've used seems to work. I'm using Fido in Canada. APN should just be internet.fido.ca and that's it for settings. Any idea what I need to do? Is there some hard setting in the phone?

on the phone you should just be able to go to Start>Settings>Connections Tab>Connections> Add a new modem connection> and put whatever name you want>then modem select Celluar Line (GPRS, 3G)>APN internet.fido.ca
I don't remember the registry entry, but I know some ROM's have the cingular proxy hardcoded into it. You can remove the entry, but you'll have to search for it. I think it's something like proxy.cingular.com, but I could be wrong. Should be fairly simple to find though.
The proxy is not hard coded into any 750 ROMs.
If you run the phone with a Cingular SIM, the SIM will autoconfigure a proxy however. Just hard reset the phone and insert your own SIM then enter the net settings.
I got the S710, and love it.
However, I'd like to use MEdia Net, and a couple other programs that talk to Cingular's system (Cingular Video for instance)
I have the GPRS set to wap.cingular, and working great.
I have a proxy setup from Internet to WAP with wireless.cingular.com:80
MEdia Net does not come up at http://device.home, or http://home
I copied setting by setting from my 3125, still doesn't come up.
Anyone confirm the issue, or get it working?

Media Net
Cingular does not offer the HTC S710 therefore it is not a supported handset. The way cingular works is to access the media net homepage or other cingular content you have to be using a supported device. The only way you will be able to access it is if and when cingular picks this device up you would need to flash the phone to the cingular firmware and it would work.
With that said don't count on Cingular ever picking up this device most phones never make it to the carriers in the USA.
Reg Edit Change
In another forum, I read that you could can change the reg. entry to say "blackjack" and that the Cingular Medianet would work. I think I saw it on HowardForums. Maybe Cingular checks certain reg. entires.
I just ordered my vox. How hard was it to set up the GPRS settings for cingular?
My 8125 has been SIM/CID unlocked and I've loaded numerous WM6 ROMs and currently have CROSSBOW RELOADED running. Never a problem (well maybe a few !!) flashing Faria's Roms or others. Thanks for all the GREAT ROM work!! I also have a ROM Kitchen ROM version I loaded too!!
The ONE issue I have is that the GPRS/EDGE data connection refuses to connect. I live in area with EDGE but I fail to see the E or G icon pop up EVER. When the modem tries to dial the G icon appears briefly but I get the "no connection...." message.
WiFi and Bluetooth work like a champ on all ROMs loaded.
I thought that this behavior might be caused by Radio ROM and I've loaded the following with same results: 2.40.11, 2.47.11, and currently have 2.19.11 running. I also went back to Cingular 2.25.11 without success.
At one point I flashed back to the button 1.05 in hopes of cleaning stuff out! I then upgraded to stock Cingular 2.25 and same problem. No data connect. I then when ahead and flashed up to WM6 (Crossbow_reloaded).
Yes, I have a $20/mo Cingular data plan and I'm using the standard WAP settings for Cingular.
What am I missing???
Appreciate your help!!

Hmmm. Sorry to ask such a question, but does it do it when you're unplugged from the USB cable?
Under Start - Settings - Connections - Connections - Advanced - Select Networks, did you try both My ISP and MEdia Net?
Try these cabs if you haven't already:
Thanks for your suggestions. Yes, I'm disconnected from USB while testing data connection.
I ran both of the cabs you included in response, but no help.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks,
I have wondered if there is a chance that some flag is set in the SIM that is preventing my connection. Anyone have experience here?
THX,
I've never had an issue with GPRS/EDGE after running either of the cabs above. I'm curious if you were to go back to the stock Cingular rom if it would all start working, or if there is some other issue going on here.
Also, for Cingular, if you are running WM6, don't even attempt to use any radio other than T-Mo 2.19 UK. Newer ones just seem to cause problems on the Cingular network with WM6.
I believe I have flashed back to stock Cingular 2.25 with this: (RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1).
I get same symptoms. I tried both "MY ISP" and "MEDIA Net" network settings with same results. I ran the cabs sent in this thread a couple of days ago too.
Specifically, I start IE and enter a web address and tap the green arrow to open the page. The little G appears w/moving arrows in the top bar and the info box says "Connecting to: Cingular GPRS". It stops and tries again and eventually the info box says: "Cannot connect: Dialed wap.cingular. There is no modem at this number".
Anything else to try?
Appreciate your help!

According to prubin (poster in the above thread), Cingular discovers you are on the wrong plan for your PDA and automatically disables your access. I don't know how true that is, but it may be time for a call to Cingular to verify your connection and plan.

Not true at all.
The only reason they disable the accounts has nothing to do with the device, but the amount of data usage.
Those yahoos were probably using > 500mb of data a month, or something insane that threw the flag.
Cingular doesn't care what type of device you have. It's just a marketing gimmick for them.
Yeah if you can't connect on the stock Cingular rom (the extended rom configuration will set all the GPRS and MMS stuff up for you so its ready to go) then you need to call Cingular, as its either them blocking you (not sure how they would do that really) or your phone has an issue. Be prepared, it seems Cingular will do some basic troubleshooting and then they'll offer to ship you a new phone. They don't take much time to really look into why a problem happens if its not very basic. I had a question about MMS messages and after a couple of minutes they were ready to ship me a replacement phone. I just laughed at how dumb that was. I let them note it in my account so I can get a future replacement very easily, but declined at the time.
A guy I work with has had Cingular replace (warranty exchange) his 8125 3 or 4 times now (he gets a scratch on it, so he calls and tells them some feature doesn't work)... Sheesh.

And people wonder why it costs so much for a phone - I'm paying for those replacements!!!

Yep, I totally agree. But the cell companies don't seem to discourage it either.
