Hey all. I just wanted to give you a heads up. I started a thread on Hofo a day ago. There are actually two about this topic now.
Appearently Cingular had the wireless.cingular.com proxy set on IE. It's in the registry, not in the connection profile. The default connection profile is still wap.cingular without the proxy, but IE will use the proxy.
I assume they did this so that IE could access http://device.home/ the Media Net site, which you need the proxy to access. They did something else to make IE really work right with Media Net, so that's good, but you can't disable the proxy.
This has a few ramifications:
1) IE is slower due to the proxy.
2) The proxy may compress images.
3) You can't access the internet from IE using a Wifi card or if you change your access point to isp.cingular
I started deleting IE connection settings in the registry and managed to disable it. I screwed up the WAP settings in the process. So I have to isolate the registry setting(s) that are specific to this proxy.
It's something we should all do (disable the proxy.) You can still acess it by changing to the MediaNet connection profile should you want to later, but trust me you don't want the proxy set all of the time in IE.
Unfortunatley IE's settings don't have access to edit the proxy setting in IE, it's in the registry only. At least so far I haven't found a setting.
I'll keep you posted. My Treo 750 is appearently defective and I'm working on getting it swapped, so I'm going to be tied up with solving this for at least a day.
Here are two of the threads:

RF9, just like I posted on HowardForums, please keep us all posted.
Thanks!
I isolated it. To disable the cingular proxy setting in IE:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings]
The default setting (that uses the proxy) is:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000000
Change it to:
"EnableAutoDetect"=dword:00000001
Or simply delete it. It's more of the fact that if it's there and =0 it's used. if it's missing it's not used. But changing it to =1 will also make it disable. This way you can simply change the value back without re-adding the seting back in.
Full details are in my post here:

I will attempt to .cab an .xml file that will allow you to import the change without a registry editor.
Is this key there right after a hard reset or does it only appear *after* the SIM is installed and the device is turned on?

I'm really not sure at this point.
I finally got this registry edit (or "Hack" if you prefer) in to a .cab file that you can download and install without ever installing a registry editor.
It's perfectly safe to use. There are two cab files.
1) To disable the existing proxy server setting
2) To restore the proxy server setting back to the default state.
All it does is change the existing registry value from 0 to 1.
Get it here:
http://www.gadgetech.info/treo/hacks/disableproxy/index.shtml#Download:
Download the two .CAB files to your Treo 750. Just click on it to install it like you would any other .CAB file.
To verify that it's installed. Try to browse to http://device.home/ . If you can get to it the proxy is enabled. If yoiu can't, it's (most likely) disabled.
If you use isp.cingular or a wifi card, of course it will only work if it's disabled.

I just verified. These settings are NOT there before the SIM is inserted. Only after the SIM is registered (SIM inserted, and phone turned on) do those settings become enabled.
Good catch. So it's not hard-coded. It's a carrier preference. I would assume that if I put a non-cingular SIM in the phone this setting would disappear. Palm does specified configuration based on the SIM inserted on thier Palm OS line, I assume they've done this on WM5.
I've been through the MSDN documentation and there's a whole big section devoted to carrier provisioning which is what this is.

Hey,
I'd like to know if there is a solution to give the PIE a special proxy setting via the registry.
Due to some restrictions i am forced not to make general proxy settings in the connection manager, but i want the PIE to route via an proxy. Since PIE doesn't provide a proxy setting within the program i'm wondering, if there is the possibility to do so in the registry....
anyone know how to copy ROM files?? I found a DLL and registry entries for "PorkPie.dll" in the \Windows folder that I think is responsible for the cingular proxy hard coding and other customizations.
RF9, I noticed your Fido logo in your profile... Have you managed to get IE to work with a Fido SIM using this method?
Pls help : Unlocked Treo750 - Not able to view websites
Hi - I bought unlocked Cingular treo750 from US and now using in India. Have setup my ISP and using the Internet. I can now download my emails, use Pocket MSN but unfortunately not able to see any website on IE. It keeps says "Locating" to any kind of website I want to view.
The problem is only on viewing websites. IMAP email and Pocket MSN works perfect therefore I presume the connection is perfect.
Could you please help me on this.
After some time - The message appears "Page can not be downloaded as the connection was lost..."
Thanks very much.

Treo 750 Proxy Disable
Hi RF9
I have been following your thread on getting a treo 750w from Cingular to work on the Fido network. I have tried to change the registry settings as you have described:
- <wap-provisioningdoc>
- <characteristic type="Registry">
- <characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings">
<parm name="EnableAutoDetect" value="1" datatype="integer" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
I got the download, but I am afraid I am not familiar enough to know how to install the changes on my phones software. Could you please do a more step by step explanation for me (us). Everything works on my Fido phone except when I go to a web page I get: "connecting" "locating" and then "page cannot be displayed".
Many thanks for your help. Ian

Please forgive my lack of technical savy; I am really struggling to learn all of this stuff...so my questions might seem a bit "stupid"... (it's just my old age showing!
Could this proxy thing be causing my problems in accessing bank of america's website? I was able to do so just fine on my old Treo 680, nad my AT&T Tilt (I hated that phone!), but on my 750 with WM6, I keep receiving a message that says "For security reasons, your device can't access Mobile Banking" I also cannot access other banking sites as well.
If so, will making these changes cause other issues?
Thanks for your patience and information. You folks here are the best!

Yes, I have the at&t branded with the official WM6 upgrade also. I do have the at&t CapPackage removed per the instructions on this site but all the MediaNet dB is intact.
Cap Package?
I have not heard about that one? Can you elaborate, or point me in the rigt direction? Thansk!

RF9, this is very similar to what I'm experiencing, but when I go to "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersi on\Internet Settings" the EnableAutoDetect value is already set to 1.
I have the AT&T Tilt, which came with WM6.

Hi to All;
Im sorry if im posting this email on a wrong thread. My apologies am not very familiar with this type of threads. I would like to ask for any assistance on my Mobile fone. I bought a Treo 750 AT&T from a friend who works in the States who brought his mobile fone here in the Philippines. I am now using the Treo 750 here in the philippines using a local network provider. I can send sms using the local network but I can't seem to connect to the internet and can't even send an MMS. Ive have tried hopelessly but there would always b e a promp which says" Connecting to : AT&T , connecting to GPRS,3G.." and it can't connect...I also tried to access yahoo and internet explorer but the same thing, could'nt access as well. I tried to ask assistance from the network's wireless center but they said that they could not help me on this problem either. I am no left with an expensive mobile phone with a lot of features, but couldn't use them. I hope somebody can help me with this type of problem.
Best regards,
Abrille
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.

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.

Hi, on my Polaris I've my Gmail account which updates itself through IMAP4.
I want the following: Wenn i have a WIFI connection the email will update through WIFI, without WIFI I want hem to automaticly connect with GPRS.
This is standard with internet explorer.
I allready found out that you can switch the connection manually: Mailoptions --> Adanced server options --> Network connection, then change it to internet or GPRS
Is there a way to do this by for example making a network connection which can use both???
Don't know too much about the topic itself, but maybe try a more advanced email program like Outlook?

Yeah I can do that, 'The Internet', only two options are available in the specified menu, 'The Internet' and 'Work' nothing else.
And the default messaging app is Pocket Outlook since ancient times.

Ok tanx, it seems that 'The Internet' is removed either by me or a programm, I was considering a hard reset for some other problems. (Activesync isn't working properly) so I think its the fasted way to solve this problem as wel.

When I click the link I get connection configuration in which I didn't changed a thing.
I don't get it, doesn't anybody have the same problem as me.
Maby the new cooked ROM will help.
My Polaris configured automatically, I am not sure if it depends on the provider. I am using KPN.
It shows you the result during configuration.
Has yours completed normally?

Simple stated, I can use both for e-mail and internet and WIFI get's priority over GPRS/UMTS when in WIFI range.
ok... I've had this same problem where my TC won't check email, windows live, etc through my wifi, despite being connected.
The reason is... my wifi connection was setup to say it connects to "work" as opposed to "the internet".
For those having the same problem as me, follow these instructions...
1) Click on start, settings, connections, then "wi-fi" icon
2) Press (hold down) on your wifi connection, and then click "edit".
3) change "connects to", to say "the internet".
4) Click next, next, and finish.
5) Close the settings menu and try again.
Worked for me!
PS... yes I know I'm a donkey for messing it up in the first place, but it's all good fun learning!
Same weird problem here now.
It use to work without problem. Wifi was preferred network.
When wifi not available, GPRS/UMTS (T-Mobile NL) was used. Since yesterday i'm not able to retrieve pop3 mail through G/3G anymore. Internet is ok and WindowsLive also no problem. Also pop3 mail through wifi is no problem.
I'm going to hardreset now.
hi all
im new here many thanks for that amazing group here.
i have yesterday upgraded my rom of my at&t tilt (kaiser tytn ii) to the new version, well all looks ok BUT...
since then i cant get internet connection and mms messages.
i have checked it the whole day today with my network company (im in israel) and we have reconfigured the modem connections but nothing its dead.
before i have done the upgrade all was just ok since yesterday its no connection.
i have checked arround and i found that there are many users that have the same problame all around the world.
since any mms message goes thru internet (etc. gprs,edge,hsdpa) i assume that the problame is with the internet connection and that blocks the mms messages.
my cell company told me that as she sees all is ok and i remember my settings too.
also even when i connect my tilt with usb to my computer i cant go on the web bacause it says "no connection".
i assume that they have planted in the registery any value that blocks any internet connection (as gprs etc.) if its not thru the own supllier, i can understand also why but the fact is that i get hspda connection and i see the icon of "connected" but somthing blocks it !!!!!
is there a way how we can digg in and remove that block that dosent allow the internert?????
is there a way to bypass it ????
or maybe i should go back to my old ROM is that possible????
again i remind u that:
1) all worked excellent till yesterday
2) the HSDPA establishes a connection but the explorer is dead.
3) i cant even connect thru my pc with usb while my pc is fully connected via dsl to the internet.
4) all setting are same and at once its "no connection"?
5) i see that meny users have that problame
if there is any way let me know
also how bad and ugly will it be if i go back to my old ROM and how do i do it.
many thanks

Where did you download the rom from???
I know the one at HTC America is intended & configured for AT&T customer in North America. If a ROM was not released on your local AT&T or HTC site, that may contribute to your issues.
You may want to DL the network configuration wizard & give it a go at reconfiguring your device.
some good news
hi all
many thanks for visniak you were right.
it was some hidden silly proxy that i needed to kick out.
now the internet works great BUT i cant send MMs messages.
the configuratins are all ok (i checked it today with my network company)
they say that thats a ROM problame (means that this might be a problame because i upgraded it to ROM 1.62)
is that right???
is there a solution???
many thanks

Does the new AT&T ROM solve the Low Volume when using Bluetooth?
That is the only iserious issue I have with the Tilt.
I have been a Symbian user forever and the AT&T Tilt(Unlocked and using it on another service provider in India) is my first exposure to Windows mobile. I upgraded to the new AT&T Rom(1.62.502.0) and the low bluetooth volume issue is sorted out...I'm using the SE 970 stereo BT headset, which is working fine.(ADVANCE that should solve ur query)
My only issue now is that i am unable to use the Internet Explorer thru GPRS. Strangely i could configure and download my E mails thru Outlook. Also, when I Sync the Tilt with my PC, IE works fine using the net connection from the PC. Any insight/clues why I'm facing this issue?
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.

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"?

I also set GPRS Authentication for MediaNET to CHAP.

I had a similar issue:
MediaNET pointed to wap.cingular

CINGULAR1
GPRS Authentication for MediaNET to CHAP.

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.

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.

No you do not need to purchase Phone As Modem plan.
No they will not charge you extra because there's no way for them to known you tethering to a pc.
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.

New issue I have the 3G icon with 2 bars but when I connect to the notebook it switches to edge. I can browse on the device with 3G but once I press connect it goes to edge.
Any ideas?

Im not seeing this issue with bluetooth... perhaps you are in a poor reception area. Are you using a usb cable or bluetooth?
What are you using to edit the registry with?
