GPRS/3G Does not connect automatically the first time... - Palm Treo 750

Hi,
I'm pretty familiar with smartphones/pocket pc/windows mobile, but I can't figure this one out...
I picked up a Treo 750 this week and it has the latest WM6.1 ROM and Latest Radio firmware.
For some reason, it will not connect to GPRS/EDGE/3G data on its own. It gives an error about not being able to connect, to which you can then click "dismiss". If I then go to data connections and edit the connection and just click next, next, finish - data will work fine - until the phone is reset and you start over again...
I've tried WM5, 6 and 6.1 ROMS and 5 different radios and they all do the same thing...
Anyone?

I have a bit different problem, but seems like yours.. sometimes, it doesnt try to connect, no failure message, but no try, my resolution is having spb gprs monitor, which i ever used, even i had this problem... in this case, only click connect and everything is ok... sometimes it doesnt connect or says message like yours on my other HTC XDAs (9000,9100....) but spb solved it everytime...

aaischa, I tried SPB but no luck...
Interestingly, I tried downgrading to WM5 and it works fine with that...
Anyone else having this problem?

Ok, so I ended up making a Mortscript to automatically connect. I attached it to this message in case anyone else needs it...

thanks, I had e the same problem

if only connect.mscr could run by itself
It would be great if connect.mscr could run when ever our treo's with hermes radios lost service. Mine with 154.07.00 once it looses service completely will not reconnect. If this script could run when the unit is not connected say every 10 minutes or so life would be good.

I have the same problem. Running 6.1 on the Telecom XT network in New Zealand...simply going into connections (as it says in the first post) and not doing anything solves it, but it is annoying. Any better solutions?
Radio: 1.56.70.11
ROM: WM6.1 (Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD)

GPRS/EDGE problem

I have recently upgraded my k-jam to custom WM6 and have tried 2.19.11, 2.25.11, 2.47.11, 2.61.11 and 2.69.11 radio roms and the data G or E icon keeps going away and instead i see an x sign
with WM5 even if i had an x sign and i wanted to connect to internet the application used to connect without any problem but with WM6 it does not connect when x is displayed saying that data services not available so i have to then turn the phone function off and on to get it working.
i heavily use data services so its very frustrating going through the process again and again.
is there a tweak/hack available? what could be causing the problem?
hi..did you try gprsworksround cab file?also club imate released new patch for gprs edge problem.check the club imate support web site.good luck

When you were using wm5 was it stock or custom? If it was custom when you started having connectivity problem, try reflashing your official carrier rom andthe n reflash a cooked rom. You might just have had a bad flash.
What carrier are you with???? Have you loaded your settings correct ??? That are in "connections/connections" then in com manager , make sure your phone is "on" as when it is turned off, like in flight mode, you will get an "x" where it woud show "E" If all is well then I would return your phone in because you would have a hardware problem.
Hi,
I was faced with exactly the same weird gprs problem you described. That is, once booted, gprs works as expected. several hours later, G (or E) sign disappears and an x (no gprs service) appears at the top. After that, it is impossible to re-attach to the GPRS (the only way is to restart the radio or perform a soft-reset). I tried 3 different custom roms together with different radio roms. The tweaks didn't help me in any ways. I even tried 3.08 IPL/SPL without any success. Strangely, t-mobile wm5 rom and my original wm5 rom hadn't had any such problems.
Then I found NBD rom and it happily solved my problem (thanx zoki! for this great rom) I don't know what is wrong with other roms, but my problem simply went away!!
So, using NBD rom may solve your problem. It is great and the connection is successfully getting alive even x sign is displayed in my case (btw, same thing happened to one of my friends here and he then installed NBD, then gprs problem was solved successfully.)
Hope this helps.. All the best.
Orhan.

The BB connect don't work with WM6 actually...
from Palm : Do not Install this update if you are using Blackberry Connect (BBC). Palm Windows Mobile 6 does not support the BBC service...
this is a BB connect CAB...made by HTC
it's basically made for AT&T tilt (8925) = Kaiser
I guess it'll work with any WM6 pro device...

Tried this and it won't work for me.
Has anyone actually got this working on a Treo750?
It gets an IP for about a second but then it drops it.
Same here w/ 750c. Gets an IP address for a few seconds and drops to no connection. BTW I am using BBC 4.0.0.90, you can find it on sems.org. I wonder if anyone w/ the Voda or the Aussie ROM would give a shot to this BBC version to see if it makes any difference.
Thanks,
HC
I guess it's the same problem as elsewhere, where you need to change the machine type in window.nb (I think). Only problem is I can't find an easy explanation of how to do this.
I was trying BBC 4.0.0.90 with Voda ROM and no luck.
Strange thing today on my 750c - Got PIN
Hi all,
It seems that something is changing w/ either RIM or ATT. I installed again today BBC 4.0.0.90 onto my 750c w/ WM6 ATT leaked ROM, after the normal reboot, surprisingly, BBC service connected to the network and I got a PIN. Clearly it said "Connected" on the status tab. Well, I connected the device to my laptop and ran the BBC Desktop, the system was provisioned properly (I think ...), Notes Backend, but now it fails to connect to Blackberry, same symptoms as before, even after multiple soft resets, see comments above. I'll play around some more w/ it and let you all know if I get anything to work. In the mean while, if anyone else has any success, please share ....
Good luck
HC
I have WM 6.1 installed using BB Connect 4.0.0.97 and its a no go. Oddly enough, I tried the same thing on an earlier Vodaphone WM5 ROM and it still didn't work...any suggestions?
Btw, I get the same issues as above, I have a PIN listed (and IP address for a short time if I Suspend and Resume) but then when I attempt to input the PIN into my online BIS account and switch devices is says the information can't be verified.

Wifi problems with wm6

Right now i am running the .1933 tnt build by it's right. When I was using wm5 I could always easily connect to my college's wifi service and it did so automatically. Now with wm6 the wifi network does not even show up as available and does not connect even when i try to force it to. Everything else works great but this minor problem is making me want to switch back to wm5, any idea whats wrong?
Hi
I have the same Rom and the same Problem, no Wifi reconnect.
It has been stated by the cook 'its Right' at the first page of TNT.1933 that "
- Some of roms have the issue with cannot open the wifi from the first time"
maybe by reflashing or flashing the other versions of TNT .1933 solve this problem,no harm in trying.
it seems to be a problem with every wm6 rom i have used. I can connect fine to my apartments router but other places i could normally connect to very easily with wm5, i now cannot with wm6. Anyone else have this problem?
edit: this is not a problem with it connecting directly, it will not even connect manually or even show that a certain wireless network is in range even though i know that it is. I have reflashed to the same result

Use the .318 build (Jaguar, XM6, Loon kitchen). Thats the only build that does not have this problem in WM6, all the other builds have the problem.

I have NOT had a problem w/WiFi using NBD 9.2 which has worked for several weeks now w/o hitch! NBD 9.2 is (relative to 1933) thin on applications so U have to track down the cabs and load. That is why I tried 1933 recently. No wifi so I went back to 9.2.

[SOLVED] HTC Tilt + Dutty WM6.1 + BBConnect = PIN: Pending

Hey guys, i've seen a number of different threads which "kind of" talk about this issue. I'm hoping to make this the definitive one. I'm on hour 10 of working to try to get this running..
(My apologies in advance if there is already one out there that i haven't found. i have been really looking and i think i tried it all... im sure thats what everyone says )
Hardware: HTC 8925 a.k.a At&t Tilt a.k.a TyTN II
Software: Duttys Official WM6.1 Release
Radio: 1.64.06.04
Provider: At&t (US)
Problem: BlackBerry Connect's "Identity" Tab reads "PIN: Pending"
I should also mention that i called At&t to confirm (prior to all of this) that i have a BBConnect service plan, it is active, and there is nothing on their end that would indicate a failure of any sorts.
Attempted Fixes (These have ALL failed):
I've tried every combination of having active sync enabled and disabled during bbconnect install.
I hard reseted before every install. Soft reseted after issue still occurred even after bbconnect install rebooted.
All tests were performed with the the HKLM\System\Versions Aku set to .0.4.2 as per Dutty's wiki: (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DuttySeriesKaiser)
I also tried various combinations such as .0.2.0 and .0.3.6 and .0.3.0
Even tired changing Device ID to HTC_P3450
Tried all of the following BBConnect software downloads:
4.0.0.84:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/o2-terra-bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb_4.0.0.84.cab
4.0.0.90:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_pro_4.0.0.90.cab
4.0.0.91:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb_4.0.0.91.cab
4.0.0.92:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb.4.0.0.92.cab
Tried installing this one both by copying cab file over to local device and through device web browser:
4.0.0.97:
http://www.america.htc.com/mobile/connect/8925/
I'm installing from and installing to the local device memory, not the storage card..
i think i covered it all... oh, i didnt try the one HEX edit solution, because i didnt think its applicable to dutty's rom..
can ANYONE please help?!
---------------UPDATE--------------------
Okok...so problem solved... i thought i read something similar to this solution somewhere.. but..well whatever... frustrations are over (the problem always seems to find a way to fix itself after you post help for it! )
Process:
1. Hard Reset (set up initial settings, connect to provider, its a total of two reboots iirc)
2. Change registry setting (HKLM\System\Versions Aku set to .0.4.2)
3. Soft Reset
4. Change Device ID to any value (Settings->System->About->Device ID)
5. Soft Reset
6. Install BBConnect 4.0.0.97 via device browser from http://www.america.htc.com/mobile/connect/8925/
7. Installation reboots system
8. Disable 3G connection, force to use EDGE via wireless connection manager
9. Device receives PIN, activates, etc..
10. Enable 3G connection
Notes:
1. So i dont know if items 2,3,4, and 5 were really required.. after preliminary testing, everything works fine with the 3g connection turned on after initial registration.
2. I noticed that the BBConnect Today icon kept showing an exclamation mark indicating its outgoing connection was being blocked. Also the status window kept showing that the connection was suspended by the user, when i never did anything.. so i tired disabling the 3G and sure enough.. problem solved..
Hope this saves someone out there the headache i've been going through.. oh well.. back to the girlfriend who i've been ignoring for the last 10 hours... (hopefully im not in that much trouble )
wooooooooooooooooooot, thx for the solution.
Man...thanks a lot for all the help...it worked like a charm...and i am using it here in dubai...uae where the black berry doestn support the kaiser offically
cheers bro
Great work man, great work for users who uses BBConect
3G still working?
Quick question for those who tried the (disabled 3G to Edge) and then re-enabled 3g.
Does your 3g still work? Have your tried to place calls in 3G mode? I am on my third Tilt, the prior two times I lost 3g after installing blackberry connect, and I want to see if anyone else has this problem, before a try a third time.
Note: On my previous two phones all worked well when I downgraded to GPRS (Edge) as described, but I never got back 3g (even after flashing and removing BBConnect)

I added this post to Dutt's WIKI and gave you due credit for your hard work.
Now if only someone can figure out how to force WM to do multiple APNs and BBConnect would be perfect!
Strange... All I had to do with my Tilt was set the AKU to .0.4.2 or .0.4.4 in the registry before installing the BB Connect software.
I've used the .92 & .97 installers from CAB files on my SD card just fine.
If you change the AKU version after the BB software is installed, it won't work right, as it will still drop the connection. You'll have to reinstall the software.

Quick Question
So to those of you who have BB Connect running, is all well with your 3G? Thanks for your help, I want to hear a few success stories before a walk down this path again
so I followed the steps, and got everything installed and turned off. I'm trying to get an unlocked tilt on my blackberry account on t-mobile.
The problem is its installed, but the email options are greyed out. We don't use an exchange server (or if we do it is configured very wrong) as I have pop3 information on my t-mobile blackberry page. It says I register successfully on the network, but I still don't receive emails. What do I need to chnage?
edit: fixed - I had to get back online and say yes that I had a new pin.
THANKS!!

that is the same problem I have left now, almost like hardware related.
does AT&T default one can do multiple APNs? as it is officaly support BBC.
I installed Blackberry Connect and I am using it with a Blackberry Enterprise Server.
But I see in order to have the BB icon, the GPRS is always attached. Should it work like this ? I know/knew that with Blackberry phones it attaches to GPRS only when incoming email is coming, and only with Microsoft Directpush technology it stays attached all the time.
If it works like this ( Always On ), is there a difference between BB Connect for WM, and Outlook with Microsoft Direct Push ?
Yours,
Alex

I had 2 dots and an x
I updated to Dutty's ROM today, and had problems with BBC.
So I searched, found this page and did exacty as told. No luck. Tried again. No luck.
So I went to Start/Settings/Connections/Connections and then clicked on 'Manage existing connections' and changed the settings (default on Dutty's ROM). [To do that click 'Edit' and change the 'Access point name' from isp.cingular to wap.cingular. Click next and change the 'User name' from ISP.CINGULARGPRS.COM to WAP.CINGULARGPRS.COM]
This worked for me. This info is for noobs, of which I am one!
I have just updated my TyTN II to WM6.1 and bbconnect (version 4.0.97) stopped working. Basically it had PIN marked as pending and was reporting no connection.
I have executed only step 2 (change hklm) and 3 (soft reset) from elec.two procedure and it resolved my issue - bbconnect works now. I have not reinstalled the bbconnect.

Universal + WM6 + WiFi

Hello.
I have an O2 Xda Exec with Ranju's v7.7 WM6.1
Everything works perfect except the wifi.
Why can't I make it work?
I open the connection manager, push the wifi icon and nothing happens! It stays off!
Can you give me some advice?

I havenĀ“t any problem with wifi on Ranju v7.7.
reinstall the ROM.
Actually that happened with every wm6 roms I have put in the past.
For example ranju's v7,6.
Do you think that this happens because I have the sdhc driver enabled?
Hello again.
I did some research on my Universal and found out that my device doesn't recognise the wifi module.
I ran the IPer, clicked on adapter info and there is nothing there! (Maybe that's because I can't switch the wifi on. I don't know)
Then, I ran wififofum and there is nothing as a device..
Can anyone please tell me what to do? Please, I'm desperate!!!!!!!
Is there any chance that you are using the Battery Status plug-in? I've experienced exactly the same problem (can't switch WiFi on) with both versions 1.04 & 1.05. If yes, just try to uninstall it.
Unfortunately I'm not using this plugin..
The only today plugins I'm using is the HTC Home VGA, Resco today and SMB GPRS Monitor.
I also do not use the overclocking application embedded with the ROM and I have the watchdog disabled.
Any other clues??? Please...
i have the exact same problem, with every wm6 i installed, now i tried the 6.1 and thats no good, my pda is useless without wifi
any ideas are welcome, i dont want to go back to a wm5 rom
anyone found the cause of this behavior?
I can sometimes switch WLAN on, after the "switching on" time, I turn my Universal off, then on, and WLAN works.
I have the same problem. It started with Tomal's 8.2 ROM and I think it could be when I started using SDHC. Another thing happens to me is that even if, in Stenigs-->System, the Performance is set to 624Mhz, when I test it with CPUID.exe the processor is working at 520Mhz.
Has anyone tryed to downgrade to WM5?
I've read that somthing may be erased in the UNI EEPROM that is not reinstalled with ROMs. But I've "no idea" about it.
a lot of ROMs has affect by WiFi issue when You protect with WPA PSK. Please search for thread : WiFi WPA-PSK Workaround and BubbleFix Service (CAB and OEM) - STABLE ( 1 2 3 ... Last Page) and install the cab. WiFi will run perfectly
Thanks for your help but my problem is that the wlan doesn't turn the WIRELESS LAN on, not the ecryption used. Without wifi, the Universal is just a very BIG cell.
I've even tried this WIFIService.cab but it hasn't solved the problem.
does not seem to work for Tomal's latest ROM
