Cheers Darren.This works for me.Problem solved!

Hi Rob
Great to hear you're sorted! I've finally managed to get all set up without the o2 bloat, but still able to do all the usual stuff (o2 wap, gprs, email, etc". Let me know if I can help you out with any of these - I know what a pain it was to get working and am more than happy to help.

WM6 Not saving WiFi/BT Connections

All:
Does anyone have any further ideas on how we can keep all WiFi and BT Connections after a soft reset? I have looked into the Registry and nada... BT needs to re-pair after each soft reset (SR) and WiFi connections are no longer present after a SR.
Any Ideas? Otherwise everything seems great on this ROM...
And the ISP connection too.... There's a fix for this bug?
Same issues here.

As you can see from the above poster that it says "Junior" before "Member" - pity they let anyone with an email account join this forum...
Also I think you were trying to write Noob and NOT Nood, get a freaking clue before posting replies which reflect your IQ.

hmmmm
I think he might actually have been nodding vigorously in agreement with you. Get a freaking clue before slagging people off!

fix?
With regard to the problem. I have nghianga rom and found that if you don't reset with the stylus for it seams to work fine. I have been running for a week now with no problems and my phone gets reset every night by spb backup.
Indeed I think it has settled down properly as I did do a couple of stylus resets yesterday and it is still fine

same problem here... but if i try to set my email account again i get an alert that an accout with the same name already exists. but i can't see it. so where will all the settings that were lost when i (soft)reset my device be stored?
big thx

email settings
Before mine became stable I had that problem too. I couldnt find a solution anywhere :-( Fortunately I had a backup.
It is critical to have regular backups with these cutting edge ROM's
I highly recommend SPB Backup - mine backs up automatically at 5 every morning. There are problems restoring backups between different versions (eg. wm5 aku 2.2 and WM6) so I make sure I have syncronised with my PC too. And I use SMSbackup for my texts. I think there is also a Contactsbackup that works between versions.
Good luck - I have no problems at all with WM6 now

TRy this....for me solved the saving of Bt and Wifi settings........
After the configure of Bt and Wifi ...instead of softreset....i shut down the phone....when i turn on it again...the settings are working!!!!....and now also if i softreset ...the setting dont disappear...!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am using Aserg Rom
Muchas gracias for all your suggestions especially to videobelu. Your tip solved all my problems without any additional software.
It's just that simple:
* configure Bluetooth, Wifi, Gprs
* create your E-Mail accounts
* shut down your device
* and restart
now you can softreset without loosing any of your settings.
Big Thx!

MMS messaging not working

i am running wm6 most beautiful addition on my g4 cid locked device and i cant get the mms to work if by any chance anyone has figure this out on t mobile USA it would be greatly appreciated..or if they could re right the guide that t mobile has that would be fantastic.
http://tmobileus.wdsglobal.com/mms?...mobileNumber=&captchaEnabled=true&service=mms
thats the t-mobile guide
thanks in advance
The T-Mobile guide is written for a device still using a T-Mobile ROM which is why it doesn't seem to make sense when you're using WM6.
I have an MDA and I've also had issues getting MMS to work under any WM6 ROM I've tried so far.
If anyone has any suggestions...
Dave
The TMobile Settings Guide in that link WILL still work. I am running Faria's WM6 ROM (quite happily I might add), just did the TMo settings myself on my CID unlocked TMo MDA about half an hour ago and MMS is now working again.
Just do EXACTLY what the directions say and your MMS will work again.
I did EXACTLY word for word and my MMS still not working...it starts to send then just dies out....and msg is moved to the drafts folder.

I have to ask since I had the same problem at first...
Did you try a manual power cycle (not pressing the soft reset button on the side or a software soft reset but actually pressing the power button for 3 seconds, letting it sit off for a few seconds and turning it back on)?
I found that with the Faria ROM, to get some changes to "stick" you have to power cycle your MDA after each and every change. Takes a while and it's a PITA, but it has solved 99% of the problems that I was having with the ROM.
If you HAVE done that already, then I dunno what to tell you guys...my condolences? JK but there has to be a permanent fix or a CAB out there somewhere...
Well, I hadn't tried the full reset was just doing a soft reset. Tried it and still same. I don't know what the issue is....lot of people are not able to send MMS. Text messaging works fine. I'll just keep trying to mess with it and hope someone finds a solution before I do.

I finally remembered what the "deal" is... the MMS instructions for TMobile has a minor error:216.155.165.050 should be:216.155.165.50
Note the lack of the zero before the .50
Give it a whirl, let me know.
--M
PS I added it to the Wiki for the next time I forget how to fix it.
Hmmm... I'll have to give that a shot. I've been using the 050 per the steps and all it would do when I tried to send a test MMS was move the message to the drafts folder and never send it.
I've got the normal T-Mobile ROM on my MDA right now and I plan on flashing it over to the Faria ROM later on today.
I'll post the results when I'm able to test it.
Dave
.50 NOT .050 : BUT Crossbow receives SMALL MMS pictures
I agree. I ran into the same problem with my very first Crossbow rom. Changing the server gateway is 216.155.165.50
NOTE it ends in .50 not .050 . This worked for me
BIG problem with crossbow roms right now: Receiving pictures messages are VERY small. They will be downsized to 160x120 and less than 15kb. 'til this day i still haven't figured out how to fix that. At first i thought it was the Arcsoft registry settings, but i have meddled through the arcsoft registry settings so many times. I think there is something else in the crossbow roms that is capping the receiving size. I have set all receiving registry settings to receive pictures in their original form or 640x480, but they still keep coming at 160x120. You can test this by sending a picture to yourself (note its size before sending it) or having someone else send you a picture. Good luck!
Hot Diggity Dawg!!
It worked like a charm. Sweeeet! Thanks for the help. I didn't even think about the server being wrong, I figured T-Mobile knew what they were doing. Guess not. XDA Dev got 'em beat.
Yep, using .50 instead of .050 worked fine for me here, too. Thanks!
Dave
are you able to send and receive? i am only able to receive. i have followed the instructions and am still not ablt to send. i am using the t-zones plan with proxy...

I sent to my old Verizon phone (which is still working until the 23rd so I've been using it as a test phone lately) and it worked fine. I sent a picture I took with the Verizon phone to the MDA and it received. However, I did get the 160x220 or whatever size it is on the MDA. It works, though. I'll worry about other issues later.
Something I am noticing now is that whenever I connect using IE, it uses the MMS profile I set up instead of the GRPS one I set up first. It works, so no big deal. I guess.

Outgoing files from the MDA will be in full size. But for some reason, with the new crossbow roms, all INCOMING pictures will the thumbnail size (160x120). This is NOT normal. If you use the standard roms, or Xelecins Custom 2.26 rom, you will notice that you get the full size image. I have been trying to find a fix for this ever since the first cooked crossbow WM6 rom... its annoying
Incoming Picture Size Setting
My friend just sent me a picture through MMS and it cam through at 320x240. How is this possible you ask? Under your MMS configuration, >preferences
There is a drop down menu that allows you to choose the photo resolution. Just pick "orignal" instead of the default setting

ok, so i set this up on my TYTN (with WM6, thx to this sweet forum).
a buddy with a moto q on sprint tried to send me a pic, but it came as a text with a http link (to sprintpcs.com). i suspect that issue was on his end.
heres the kicker - i hit the link, and IE opened, and went to the page, even though I had wlan off (i.e. it used the picturemessage connection to get there)! i tried going to google, and that worked as well! is this some form of t-zones or tmobileweb? i only have the 1000 min family plan, and i don't have any internet services added to my account. could this actually be some form of simple free proxy-based web browsing?
...or am I going to get bent over on my next bill for some previously unknown pay-by-the-kb-or-minute fees...
please advise.

Mine has been set to original and on occasion 640x480. It makes no difference. They all come in at 160x120 or smaller. Are you sure u're using crossbow WM6? Cuz so far, i've been hearing other ppl with the same problem. We all have our settings at "Original"
All pics coming in to me with MBE, mUn, and Faria WM6 roms come to me 160x120 (and I've had a couple come in smaller than that even). I'm set to Original, and I've even changed it to other settings and back again. Can't seem to figure out why this is happening.

Unfortunately, you will get charged for the per minute data usage.

Thanks for the reply. Does the per minute data usage work the same as the voice usage (i.e. if I have unlimited nights and weekends for voice, would the same apply to data)? Or is this a seperate rate? Is there a page detailing this at the T-Mobile site somewhere? I searched for the better part of an hour and could find no specifics.
Thanks in advance.

hi, first of all, I would like to ask you to : please....flash the ROM using the latest WM6.1 official ROM from the imate website...I think that WILL FIX ur problem...I use imate9502, and this device is really ultimate for me
Yes the unit is working fine and good, just the problem is the Messaging and internet feature.
I do flash to 6.1 version 1.73 and curretly use 1.77 (official) still same result. i don't know what is the problem even imate personell also haven't gv me any new since 2 months ago
I go to registry but still can't find any hint

Hi h9s,
I've found your post googling for something else. I suppose you have already solved your problem with internet connection by now. Please, disregard this post in this case. Anyway, I wonder if you have already changed the GPRS authentication method. Go to Start > Settings > Connection tab > GPRS Authentication. Its defaulted to CHAP. Change it to PAP instead and give it a try.
Just my 2 cents...
Cheers!

Cannot update imate configurator
Hi I cannot connect through my GPRS, seems like something wrong with the connection setting. Currently I'm using Satelindo (Indonesia), and I tried to download the imate configurator file from https://www.imate.com/Support_OperatorSettings.aspx but when I try to install it always says The previous version must uninstalled before, and when I click yes, it always failed to uninstall the previous version & the instalation unsuccesfull. Anyone could help me? Thanks in advance

You see, I find i-mate's Configurator to be pretty useless in detecting my carrier's data here in Brazil, for what I removed its .lnk item from my \Windows\StartUp a long time ago, and I manually provided my carrier's data (GPRS, MMS). Please, consider doing the same.
Just my 2 cents...

Verizon MMS Help
Try these cabs, they should solve all of your problems, they worked like magic for me because I have Verizon too... For better and faster help w/ a CDMA TP2 try PPCGeeks!
I've never had to install any additional cabs to get MMS working on any of NRG's rom.
As long as I did the carrier provisioning for Verizon under "Tools" it has worked.
Finally got my MMS back

Omnia 7 unbranding/interop questions

Hi all !
I've had my Omnia 7 since it came out, and never got the chance to unlock it or anything. I recently changed operator (Orange Fr to Free) and like a lot of people can't receive MMS (i can send them though) and sometimes have to restart phone to regain internet access, after looking around a bit on the french forums a lot of people are unlocking their phones to be able deploy a kind of network profiler app (i think).
I'd like to be able to do this, and at the same time get ICS and anything else that would be usefull.
I've read through this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335452, but to be honest i'm not quite sure if it still works, and i would also like to know if there is anyway of backing messages and any other useful stuff before doing the first steps?
I anyone can help me, i would very much appreciate it, and also if someone knows of an easier way to solve my MMS/internet problem that would be awesome
Thanks
---------
Solved the inter op problem (managed to do it) and used .xml files for APN settings but still cant receive MMS.
