Hi all, I am new here and to smart phones, did the "cc" tweak for the volume, worked great, I now have a wifi issue, i have signal, the phone see's the signal, but when i launch IE it say's "your internet comm is not config properly. Please verify your settings in data connection" I have looked at things and cannot find anything that loks wrong. I find connections but not data connections. If anyone can help.. I am deployed in Iraq and have very little access to any kind of help...Thanks-- ps..feel free to use email
It may be that internet explorer is set up to only use WAP and therefore not able to get a connection. In your IE options, make sure it says Internet or Work depending on how you set your wifi up.
Stay safe.
I previously posted a question, but received no replies. Just wondered if anyone can now help me. There is wi-fi at work which I am able to connect to. However, whenever I do so, the 3G, GPRS takes over and connects that way. I cannot understand why or get around it. I am on o2. My colleague is on T mobile - I set his wi-fi link up in exactly the same way and he has no problems whatsoever. I am desperate for your suggestions.
Are you using push mail by chance? I found that M$ push will try to connect to GPRS even when WiFI connection is established. IE goes through the WiFi connection (obvious speed difference) but push mail won't let me kill GPRS.
Haven't found any solution to this yet.
Any chance you have tried turning the radio off!! Of course you wont be able to receive/make calls)
Just a suggestion though
I had same problem but managed to solve it (I have a Qtek9100 a.k.a Wizard with WM 5.0)
You must go to "Settings", select the "Connections" tab bellow and the click on the "Connections" icon. Once there you must select the "Advanced" tab bellow and click "Select Networks" button where you'll find a drop-down (combo) box responsible for the programs that automatically connect to the Internet.
You'll probably find there the connections you set for the GPRS and MMS. All you need to do is create a new one (can call Wifi or whatever) and select it.
That's it. hope you can do it
No GPRS for me Even upgraded Radio ROM and still no dice.... is there a fix for this or am I doomed?
Actually - i can send texts so seems like this is some sort of a WM6 bug... anyone?

Mine works. Where are you? Which provider? Which phone? etc etc.
--M
GPRS worked straight away for me after installing this ROM. Did you select the right provider when you setup your phone? You can rerun that (to verify) by going to Start > Programs > Accessories > Operator cfg (The phone will have to do a soft reset after this runs).
if u use T-Mobile change to wap.voicestream.com
My GPRS died as well. I had to flash the rom and the radio multiple times. I am using T-Mobile US. Radio 2.19.

The two arrows and the "X" means your Wi-fi is on, but cant find any wifi or hotspot connection. Go to comm manager and turn of the wifi.
here is a silly question.
Go into your comm manager and see if your Phone icon is on or off. (look to see if it has an X on it). If it is on, turn it off.. wait a minute... then turn it back on and see if that helps. Sounds like your phone is stuck in flight mode.

Wifi was off at the time - I made sure it was. I rebooted the phone multiple times with no avail...
did you try what i mentioned?
VanFanel,
Yes, I had the same problem with Faria's AKU3.3 rom. I'm using Tmobile and for some reason, nothing would allow it to reconnect to GPRS after about 1 day of use. Tried soft reseting, pulling the battery, disabling wifi, disabling and re-enabling the phone, making new connections profiles, disabling push, disabling activesync OTA, etc. You name it, I looked into it. I did a hard reset on the phone and it worked again for about a day and then just refused to connect again. Finally, I just installed the MB WM6 rom and everything has worked for the past week or so. The GPRS connection did pop up with an X for about 1/2 a day, but I have a feeling that was actually caused by Tmobile's network being down or unreachable in the area (thunderstorms), because GPRS was connected again in the morning. I never did figure out what exactly was wrong but I feel your frustration.

Yessir did that - nothing.
Doc_lee - excatly but i did not even have connection period. The funny thing I tried the mUn WM6 ROM and that worked just dandy, then I upgraded to Farias - and no dice, then I downloaded to Farias AKU 3.3 and it works just dandy.
Blah - I'll wait for the next revision
Solution!
I know why!
If you use "registry Wizard" you need to reenter your password, which is "tmobile" for your internet gprs connection.
Easy solution for a simple problem
Not sure what you are talking about. I don't see any option for a GPRS password within "Registry Wizard". Can you clarify or provide a screen cap?

GPRS Fix
Hey, I was experiencing the same problem with my orwells rom. I tried something but it's only been tested for one day...so far i have not experienced a drop out in my gprs connection like before (same as urs). create a new gprs connection with the exact same information as your previous one, just name it differently. go to settings-connections-add a new modem connection-put the same info as your current gprs settings - in "enter name for connection" put a different name.then under advanced- select networks select that "connection" as "program that automatically connect to the internet" then reset ur fone and see how it goes...just make sure u name ur connection differently compared to the old one - like creating a whole new different connection, only with the same gprs info

So let me get it straight - you also had the "two arrows and x" icon instead of the big G/E for the GPRS connection, then you tried a brand new connection and it worked fine?
I have a Cingular 8525 with WM5, using the lastest version of Activesync. I do not have wifi or 3g internet connection on my cell phone. Everything is synced and seems to be working fine but PIE doesn't work.
My Network management settings are:
Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using: "My ISP"
Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using: "My ISP"
Under Connections it reads: My ISP, and for select a modem it says "Cellular Line"
How do I enable my phone to use pocket internet explorer when cradled? The reason is that my RSS reader cannot update because IE cannot connect.
Save me! I spent the last 4 hours trying to fix this problem.
Hi,
I had the same problem some time ago.
In ActiveSync\File\Connections I had to tick "This computer is connected to: The internet". Now it works.

Change "cellular line" to "cellular line GPRS" from the scroll down box.
The saga still continues to no avail...
i clicked "This computer is connected to the internet"
and also selected "Cellular line GPRS"
What do I enter for Access point name, username, password, etc.
This is getting really annoying.

Is AT&T your carrier? When did all this begin happening? The settings I've given you are to be made directly on your device, and not from a PC. Try "auto pick" instead of ISP GPRS, and see if that helps.

One more thing to try: go to your connections settings, tap on advanced (at bottom) select MediaNet from scroll box, tap "proxy" the box that says it uses a proxy to connect should be unchecked (empty) The top box should be checked. You haven't done any internet connection tweaks in the registry have you?
0 internet registry tweaks, do you think you could link me to the cab that should be able to fix this for me?
Either way, and despite whether or not this gets fixed, thank you, thank you, for helping me.

Sorry man, I don't have the cabs for this fix. I remember reading about someone having the same problems and a cab fix was requested. Can't remember where I read about it. I recommend a forum or google search for the cab fix...I'm pretty sure you'll find what you need.
Ok here is the weird thing... I am running SPB mobile, and when I sync my weather is able to update for New York, NY. Doesn't that mean it must be getting an internet connection through PIE? DOes SPB mobile mess with the registry?
Anybody? Lately I've been using WiFi to update my phone but Id rather have it work when it is cradled.
any reason why the above should not work "out of the box". i have been tethering fine with my BJ1 but got my FUZE yesterday and it's not working. Says "waiting for network" then "remote party has ended this connection".
i did try installing the modem drivers from the CD, did not help.
what is the most common cause of ICS not working with vista over USB?
thanks in advance.
did you uncheck enable advanced network functionality? Its checked as defualt. Uncheck it and try again.
more ICS help needed

i tried that, still does not work.
in VISTA i briefly see the RNDIS network connection go to enabled but quickly goes to disabled when the handset says "remote party has ended..."
on the FUZE i have
Settings | Connections | Wireless Manager | Data Connection = On
and the only thing i changed during my trouble shooting is
Media Net | Select a Modem = Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
settings also have wap.cingular as it should, and don't know what the preset password is - i haven't touched it. should i use the password that i know worked on the BJ1?
also, in WiFi Settings, does the Remote NDIS network adapter settings play into this? i put it on DHCP and it also says "connect to work" - should that be "internet"?
thanks

Ok Im having the same problem I guess I should of tried it before opening my mouth lol
on my 8525 running WM6.1 it works flawlessly PC connection is set to usb and network connection is to media net.
On the fuze I get the same error you do something like connecton to host failed....
so now I'm on the please help me list with you!
I spoke to someone a rep friend of mine and he said they disabled the ability to tether. You need to have the tethering plan in order for it to work.
Hmm, seems like somebody's going to need to hack around that

Yeah really! looks like I wont be getting rid of my tytn any time soon its going to suck to swap out sims everytime I want to tether to my laptop.
I had a similar issue:
An unlocked and custom-ROM Wizard worked with ICS just fine. My new Samsung Epix kept spitting out the dreaded "The remote party has ended this connection" almost immediately upon clicking Connect in ICS.
I see you already have MediaNET pointed to wap.cingular
I found I had to add the username and password:
[email protected]
CINGULAR1
I also set GPRS Authentication for MediaNET to CHAP.
I am internet sharing 3G beautifully over Bluetooth with Vista64.
ICS problems (cont'd)

this is consistent with my BJ1 settings and works fine on that device. i have the same settings on the fuze.
did you do anything on the Vista side?
did you have to install the drivers from the CD?
any other settings that i should know about?
I had the same problem. This workaround seems to be working for me, though:
0. Make sure phone is NOT connected to computer
1. Go to Start -> Programs -> Internet Sharing
2. Set the PC Connection to USB and the Network Connection to Media Net
3. Click Connect
4. Connect USB cable to computer

This is what I do on my 8525 but on the fuze no luck :-(
Im going to try and do a hard reset and stop it from installing the at&t stuff and see if it works.

Network connection drop down seems to be absent in internet sharing on my Fuze... hmmm...
Well the hard reset with no extra stuff installed did not work :-(
I hope some HTC wizard can figure this out.
I think this is a Windows Mobile registry settings issue, not an HTC issue. They set it this way at the request of AT&T.
Got this from:

This may actually fix both the missing Network drop-down and the "Remote party has ended the connection" issue. Its for Sprint, but worked for me. Just substitute MediaNET for Sprint.
After my first post, I had to do a Hard Reset and then the issue jamorgan2008 is having (Network drop-down not showing). I didn't have this the first time. I looked up the Registry Key and it had Cingular ISP as the ForceCellConnection value. I deleted it and am back on again. As such, this may also fix your issue as well, hondaguyjoe. Do you have the Network option in Internet Sharing or just PC Connection? You may need a Mobile Registry Editor for this.

I have two Touch Diamonds (not Pro's).
One for my wife and one for me.
My Internet sharing (Start\Programs\Internet sharing) only has one drop down menu, "PC Connection".
My wife's has two drop downs "PC Connection" AND "Network connection".
Now I bought her's two days after mine at the same Sprint store.
Her Internet connection shares Internet via USB connected directly to a PC without issue.
Mine doesn't since I have not been able to set the missing "Network connection" drop down menu option to the appropriate setting of "Sprint". Instead it either say Waiting for network or error 67 invalid username and password (something like that)
I deleted the key: (not just the value)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection
Now I got the second drop down menu "Network connection", restarted the phone and now it works like a champ.
