I flashed my tilt to an htc rom and I'm now having problems getting on the internet. Is there some place where i could find a cab file with at&t settings or anywhere I could find the settings and enter them by hand. thanks
still looking. thought I found a solution but it was for hermes.
try this network config...
thanks a lot. that seems to have done the trick.
turns out it didnt fix the problem. i can connect to the web via PIE but for some reason I can't get either gmail or windows live to connect. I don't know why it would work for some but not others.
Same problem
I am having the same issues too. IE and outlook mailbox can connect without any problem to the internet. Gmap too.
However, I am having problem with fring and skype applications. Anyone experiencing this issue?
I have flashed my Tilt with the original HTC Kaiser rom.
i think i might have the solution for ya...change the isp.cingular to wap.cingular
I'm having all sorts of problems, too. Very odd. I don't understand how it can work one minute, then not the next.
One thing that has seemed to help is to use the advanced configuration tool to keep the connection active all the time.
It's under Connections > Connection Always On.
Keep in mind, I had to choose MEdia Net. When I chose "My ISP GPRS", I couldn't connect at all....
I'm having the same issue. I didnt notice it until now with Fring. Over WIFI it works, over 3g it says cannot find internet.
I checked and my settings are already on the wap.
So other ideas?
I've also been having intermittent luck with the settings on my TILT flashed to HTC ROM.
One way I got around it for a while, was to connect to Pocket Internet Explorer to get the connection setup, then hop on Google Maps/MS Live Search/etc.
I also had this problem with MiniMo and Opera for a while. Eventually it all just worked itself out I guess. Also, make sure your 'proxy' settings don't get messed up. Sometimes I'll go into the connection settings and the "This connection uses a proxy" is checked... I'll go back in later, and it won't be. Not sure what the conflict is.

Here is a solution.
When you create settings using the Wizard it puts 2 connections. 1 MY ISP and the other MEdia Net.
GO to Settings -- Connections -- Connections -- Advanced -- Select Networks -- First drop down box make sure that My ISP is selected then click ok up top.
Try it and see if it works now.
If it doesnt select MEdia Net as the default connection and edit it, remove proxy and see if it works now. If still no luck remove MEdia Net from one of the connections, by managing existing connections tap and hold and then click delete. Then set MY ISP as the default connection in advance --select networks.
Good Luck.
That took care of it..
Actually what took care of it was going into the media net settings and unclicking the proxy settings..
It was using a proxy to connect but no server in the box. I clicked and whammo works now!
Thanx
same issue
Just wanted to mention had the same issue (particularly with skype) and made the change mentioned further up in the post about changing the connection setting from isp. to wap. and now skype works like a charm, thanks!

The Problem: I cannot get Exchange to sync correctly when using any 6.1 ROMs.
AT&T Tilt
AT&T SIM
Exchange 2003
Radio: 1.58.26.20
I really need to be able to Exchange sync in order to accomplish my job. From reading though the many 6.1 threads and searching around, I have found that people seem to be occasionally running into this problem, but there hasn't been any resolutions mentioned yet. The problem for me is that synchronization will not occur in ActiveSync. At one point, it would sync my contacts even though it said the sync failed. Others have reported that it will sync contacts and calendar but not email.
The Active Sync error code that I get after flashing a new 6.1 ROM and setting up Exchange the normal way is:
Result: Synchronization could not be completed. Try again later.
Support Code: 0x80830003
Here is a list of things that I have tried so far from searching and asking around that did not work:
1. Didn't work: Installing "remove hidden proxy" .cabs.
2. Didn't work: "What, exactly, are you having issues with? It's not an Exchange 2k3 incompatibility, as mine is synching fine. I did have to go into Settings > Connections > USB and turn off advanced network capabilities, though."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1940649&postcount=1155
3. Verify the following Exchange setting (already checked): "On the Exchange server, launch Internet Services Manager. Right click on the Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directory and choose Properties. Select the Directory Security tab. Click the Edit button in the Secure Communications section and select the option to 'Ignore client certificates.'"
http://download.microsoft.com/downl...ices-Deploying_Microsoft_Mobile_Messaging.doc
4. Verify the following Exchange setting (not running Exchange 2007): "I also had trouble syncing with Exchange. I run Exchange 2007 and had to enable the option to allow the enrolment of non-supported devices in my ActiveSync policy. With WM5.0 or 6.0 it always worked flawlessly."

"The first issue I had was the initial setup. I set up my account properly, but ActiveSync would report that it cannot sync at this time. I knew that I had to uncheck the Use Proxy for this Connection option to solve this issue, but I couldn't find where to get to that setting for the MEdia Net connection that was being used. I finally found it in Settings -> Connections -> Advanced Tab, then tap the Select Networks button and where it says "Programs that automatically connect..." select MEdia Net instead of My ISP and then you can tap the Edit... button and remove the proxy server selection."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1957501&postcount=3
...attempting to force a sync gives this. I also tried changing "Programs that automatically connect..." to My ISP with the same result:
ActiveSync tries to connect using either MEdia Net or My ISP and then says:
"Cannot Connect
Dialed: Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufacturer's documentation and try again."
ActiveSync Reports: "Waiting for network"
Right i am pissed so i might be being a ****, but, it would help if you told us
a) what version of exchange you are running.
b) whether you are using ssl to sync with the server
c) whether you are talking about syncing when connected to the pc, over gprs or such, or both.

Yeah, I have noticed some issues as well. I'm using dutty's official 6.1 release.

The second issue I have found is that after a while (not sure on specific time) ActiveSync just seems to stop working, almost as if it is hung up. When I go to the ActiveSync window and tap Sync, it does absolutely nothing. Basically the only way i've found to get it to start working again is doing a soft reset.
Hopefully this will help you or other people out, because it took me FOREVER to figure this out. I am curious if anybody else is having problems with ActiveSync stopping responding with 6.1 also.
Same here
Hello,
I am having the same problem here.
I am using DCS 1.5 and windows Vista (Windows Mobilde Device Center). It has been working beautifully for a week..
But now I cannot connect the device to my computer through USB. When I do the charge led is on, but the device is not seen by vista.
I checked off "enable advanced network functionnality" in the USB to PC settings.... But nada!
Any help from otehrs would be appreciated.
Juju
I'm sorry, I might not have been clear. ActiveSync on the device hangs up, not on my computer. I haven't had any issues with ActiveSync on my computer so I think this is a different issue.

Sorry for the confusion, I thought you were talking USB since you mentionned the PC to USB thing. Still annoying though . I will repost in the DCS thread!
Direct push works without issues over AT&T's network on 3.0 Sleuth. My job depends on it working too. I've used it over MEdiaNet and My ISP connections although you need to be able to use my ISP to get it to work correctly (without 7minute delays). You can tell if its using the correct connection by waiting for direct push to connect after a reset then tapping on the big 3G icon. It should say its connected using My ISP (this assumes you let the connection wizard discover your provider and set you up of course).
The only difference between your settings and mine is that my email system uses SSL.
Certs aren't an issue if your exchange implementation doesn't need SSL.
I would really like to see the exact activesync error code you are getting btw.

It also happened to me on your newest 6.1 ROM Sleuth, thanks for chiming in here. I can only work on this issue during the weekend because come Monday I have to reflash to a working 6.0 ROM. I just reflashed with Dutty's newest 6.1 ROM and here are my updates (updated in first post also):
The ActiveSync error code that I originally got with all of the 6.1 ROMs is:
Result: Synchronization could not be completed. Try again later.
Support Code: 0x80830003

Thanks for all the help so far everyone.
Anyone else have any other ideas that I can try?
Have you tried not letting the network communication run and enter the att network connections manually. Just say No to configure your network config. I have had issues with the network communications auto setup.
1) Set up My Isp to use either wap.cingular or isp.cingular (depending on you data plan) and not setup the proxy.
2) Set up the work connection as medianet to use wap.cingular with the proxy setting
3) Set up MMS connection using the correct setting and using work connection (medianet) with proxy.
It really sounds like your issue is related to the network settings. If you look up your active sync error code on google all seem to point to the ATT proxy issues.
Good Luck

Thx but in that case error code would help. Because not working could come from many factor.
More strange is not working config when "upgrading" from WM6 to WM6.1 with STRICTsame config...
So if people could put more details it will help
The error code indicates that your exchange server is set to use client certs btw. Here's the exact recommendation to fix:
1. On the Exchange server, launch Internet Services Manager. Right click on the Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual directory and choose Properties. Select the Directory Security tab. Click the Edit button in the Secure Communications section and select the option to “Ignore client certificates.”
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This is a server-side fix though. If you're not the IT staff that did this, then you need to get them to give you the client cert again.
your upgrade to WM6.1 caused your client side cert to disappear. The cert store on WM6.1 contains different certs in the root store as well which could cause WM6.0 to have the cert your exchange server requires but not this beta version of WM6.1.
Exchange installations which require client side certs are very rare btw which is why everybody is saying "works great here". Generally, server certs are used instead (require SSL must be checked in this case)

Solved. Thanks for everybody's help on this issue. eagle 1's answer above helped me find out what was wrong.
It was a really simple solution, but I have never had to mess with any of these settings on any of my previous WM devices. The solution was: The "Connection Setup" wizard did not set up my connection settings correctly. I had to set BOTH "Programs that automatically connect..." drop down options in the advanced connection settings to MEdia Net.
Thanks again to everyone that helped out.
surprising that you got a 0x80830003 error instead of the more common 0x8500200B (failed to contact server) message
Hello,
I got this error message:
Error! Could not locate remote server
You tried to access the address http://www.google.com, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.

I first used another build of opera 9.5 (v.1004, or 1186 I think), but after installing the v.1409, I can not figure out a way to make it work properly. While using the LAN (Activesync connection) everything seems to work. But as soon as I try to connect Internet through 3G, I got the error message displayed.
Does anybody have a solution ?
Thanks for your help !
I have tried a bunch of ROMS and found this to be the same problem for all of them. When connected to Activesync and the computer has an internet connection, the phone is supposed to be able to use that internet connection to download data. However, everytime a program tries to connect, it says unable to download data (i.e. HTC Home weather).
So why doesn't it work? If I remember correctly, it used to with WM5.
BTW, correct me when I am wrong, but when connected to Activesync, that connection overides the 3G/E/H connection. So regardless if I am connected to 3G, it doesn' use that connection to download. Therefore, I always get the 'unable to download' error.
Thanks for any inputs.
No one else has this problem?
No problem here. I don't use HTC Home (memory hog) so I cannot speak for the weather plugin, but any time I launch PIE or Skyfire, it defaults to my PC's internet connection.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong (since I've been using WMDC for almost 2 years now), but I believe this option was removed in the latest version of ActiveSync for XP.
I suggest deleting your partnership with your computer, and then recreating it. Pay careful attention to the setup prompts, because one of them says something to the effect of "Allow Wireless Communication while connected..." I don't remember the exact wording. Try it with the option checked, and then unchecked if the first way doesn't work.

My company does use a proxy server, but none of that is configured on my phone. I just plugged it in, and it started leeching...
Ok, so the data on the phone works... but if I try to tether it and share the internet to my laptop, I get a code 67 saying my username and/or password is incorrect... the thing is that the data works all the time except when tethering...
any idea on how to fix this?
thanks.
Apparently I can fix this error in EPST... however I cant get my MSL through any of the suggested methods... anyone know how to get the MSL from the touch pro2? its an MEID, but using a converted pESN doesn't work with GetSPC...
I am suddenly having the same issues also. I had this working just by installing the ICS and WModem Fix.CAB but then I did a hard reset and reinstalled the ICS and WModem Fix.CAB and now it doesn't work. Could this just be Sprint catching on?
why would you reinstall it? was it not working?
just download from thgis site the wifi software. it worked on my tp2 spri nt
Code:
1. Edit the following regestry entries.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll" entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
ForceCellConnection="Sprint"
2. Start the Internet Sharing application.
3. Hit Connect In the Internet Sharing application.
4. Connect the TP/TP2 to the Laptop/PC via USB
5. Done. No other applications needs to run on the PC/Laptop
Basically, you need to tether with "Sprint", not "Phone As Modem." Just tested this and it worked quite well. If you still are unable to connect, be sure you disconnect and reconnect the phone.
You might want to try to start a data connection manually first from Connection Manager. Then try to tether.
I had the same problem yesterday so i deleted
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Extension="" Delete the "isext.dll" entry

Now I don't get the code 67 thing when i start the modified ICS
Use the tp internet sharing fix.
I used the internet sharing fix from the touch pro 1 and it works well. U must make sure u allow dta connection from active sync on the pc...make sure it is turned on through comm mananger..should work like a charm
I have a TP2 now and tether with wmwifirouter. I have never had to do any editing/hacking of the reg or had any of the issues you describe but then I never tried to use ICS alone on TP2. My advice would be to download the free trial and see if that helps.
http://www.wmwifirouter.com/
I used to tether with my SPrint Mogul, first with just ICS in windows but had constant dropped connections. Then tried PDA net and had similar issues. I thought the newest PDAnet version might help so I purchased it but same issues. Still waiting for my refund.
Then I got wmwifirouter for my Mogul and it was like a beautiful dream. It worked 99.5% of the time. The difference in reliability between ICS and wmwifirouter or PDAnet + Activesync vs wifirouter cannot be overstated. Did I mention I really like wmwifirouter?
wmwifirouter doesn't depend on crappy Activesync on the PC side to function which may be part of the difference.
As for PDAnet, I used to save the error messages and email them to the company periodically. Eventually I ran out of hard drive space.

I did the above Reg Hack and now I can't get data while on the phone. Of course I can't remember if I could EVER get voice and data on CDMA as I just switched from GSM where that is possible.
I'm on Sprint and as soon as I use my phone the connection goes from an Ev to a 1x and it only switches back to Ev when I hang up. Is this normal or a result of the hack?
Thanks.

On CDMA you can't use data while on the phone. It's how CDMA works. It uses the same antenna/radio. So, nothing is wrong with your phone.
so this thread is confusing me. Are the instructions all you need or do I need to install something for standard internet sharing. Also, is this going through activsync? I have a mac and would like to use this (at rare times) on it. Is my only option a wifi program? Is there a bluetooth method?
I have done the registry hack and got tethering working, but upon a reset, the hack gets undone and the registry goes back to phone as modem. I am having to constantly change that key entry back to Sprint. Is no one else having this problem?

Install DotFred's TaskManager
Click select Menu, Tab Options, Select Tab, Services. Find "CM Guardian", click and hold until menu pop up and select "Set Manual".
Reboot

Why don't you just install the WiFi Sharing app... it works like a charm and you don't need to pay for internet sharing.
SOLVED
Ok, I had the same problem on my Sprint TP2. Here's the issue:
There is a program running that watches for you to change the "ForceCellConnection" registry key. It changes it back to "Phone as Modem" because Sprint REALLY wants you to pay $30/month for a tethering plan (despite the fact that your phone is capable of doing it for free).
The program running in the background is called "CMGuardian", and you'll find it in the registry under HKLM/Services/CMGuardian and HKLM/Services/CMGuaridan. (Note one is misspelled... probably on purpose by Sprint to keep people from searching the registry for it).
I set the DWORD key "Flags" to 4 in both keys and soft reset. This disabled CMGuardian (and frees up a lot of RAM too).
Next, you can edit the ForceCellConnection key and change it to Sprint permanently. ICS should now work. If you still get Error 67, establish a data connection first (open opera, or just go to conn manager and turn on data), then click Connect in ICS.

So what all is CM Guardian doing? We don't really know if it's doing anything else or not. Are we sure we want to stop it if we don't know what all it does?
CM Guardian is a program that keeps certain things within factory specs for whatever reason..
as long as you dont screw something else up in the reg CmG wont even be needed..(i think its to prevent us from reg mods)
if you disable it, edit the reg for tether, soft reset.
open web browser, open internet sharing, click connect, then connect usb to pc to phone and it will work..
