Hi, I just bought a HTC Touch Cruise on ebay and I'm using on AT&T US (Minnesota). There's so many things I CAN'T do with the phone right now...
I have an unlimited data plan with AT&T, but for some reason I can't connect to gmail to download my messages. I also can't download weather forecast for my city or any other city. The weird thing is that I can access the internet with internet explorer and the Opera browser with no problems (Except the opera does not open google sites).
On top of all, everything I described above works perfectly with my WI-FI home network. I assume it's a problem with my AT&T configuration.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance
It would help if you tell us what the config settings you have in your Cruise are right now. Did you use the connection setup wizard?
I did use de wizard for the AT&T connection. I also used the wizard for my e-mail account. I tried diferent settings with my mail too. Nothing that uses my data plan works besides the internet, but everything works fine with wi-fi. I'm really sad that I have this amazing phone and most of the features does not work. Please anyone help!!
i am from australia and I do not know alot about US carriers but, maybe they use proxies? maybe they block some sites. I think either your setting in the phone are wrong or the block sites. maybe give them a call and get there settings the could even be on there website.
Oh my God, I feel so stupid...
I fixed the date and time and everything works now.
What an idiot mistake to make. Anyway, thanks for the replies.
Now I can enjoy my phone!

Is there anything that needs to be done for the Fuze to work with Rogers?
Can I simply put the Rogers simcard in and all will work fine?
Does it need to be unlocked, or flashed with a different ROM?
Is it better to wait until Rogers gets something very similar?
Any ideas what would be best to do?
Thanks in advance for your input/advice.

you need to unlock the phone first of course. you can find the relevant information on this forum if you search for it. You don't necessarily have to flash it, but you prob don't want all the AT&T bloatware.
As far as I know, Telus is going to be the only carrier with Touch Pro, so you're better off buying a Fuze from the states and "smuggle" it across border (or you can always pay the tax at border )
Unlocking the Fuze
SlingPlayer Mobile is installed on the Fuze...
However, despite the 3G symbol being there, "Cannot Connect" shows up.
It leads to Settings for Connections.
Rogers Wireless 3G settings...Is there a tutorial?
Is there a step-by-step tutorial on setting up the Fuze with Rogers Wireless so that SlingPlayer Mobile works with 3G, instead of getting "Cannot Connect"?
Thanks
not exactly but its really simple, first off, what have you done to your phone thus far? are you using a stock rom or custom rom? etc
I am also going to assume you have entered your slingbox info into the application.
I am using fuse on rogers network with NATF rom with Dara Plan, and nothing realy needed after i poped the sim in, it found anything there is to be found, and Ta-Da! It's working flawlessly so far.
What I did so far....
First of all, I have a stock ROM unlocked Fuze...I have a warranty on it for 1 year, so I really don't wanna mess with the ROM just yet.
1. I went Start, Settings, Connections Tab, Connections Icon, My ISP and Add a new modem connection.
2. Name: Rogers Wireless
Modem: Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
Next
Access... : internet.com
Next
User... : wapuser1
Password: wap
Domain: left it blank
Finish
Now SlingPlayer Mobile and Weather works.
However, Internet browsing, E-mail, Messages...all don't work
I found info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311426
but those cabs do not work properly with the FUZE.
There's other settings posted there too...trying to figure it out. No success so far.
If there can be one made specifically for the FUZE and Rogers Wireless, it would be sweet.
Anyway, any kind of help is very much appreciated. If anyone knows what to do specifically,
please advise or point to where the information is.
Thanks

Nice you found lurch's cab. install it anyways so you have mms working. I thought auto configuration was installed on the fuze by default, but it was a while ago. for internet you need to disable the proxy that is on the fuze (set up for AT&T users)
First on the overall end with the disable proxy cab
and then you need to do it in opera, since you clearly have made a decent attempt at using the search function, i will just attach the cabs here, let me know if it works

depending on how you unlocked the phone, you may have already lost the warranty. if that's the case, flash away~
oh...and even after you flash it, you can always reflash it back to stock rom
Progress...
OK...first, about the warranty, the place I bought it from unlocked it and said 7 day replacement, 1 year servicing. I've never used the HardSPL, etc...I think I want to wait before I go that way until after the year is up.
Progress report:
Good news! Installing only "Lurch3559-Rogers.cab" (and not the VPN one) plus the two posted earlier in this thread did the trick. Everything works.
Next, learning how "Microsoft Direct Push" and "hotmail" work, and if they can work together. I got my hotmail addy working, but I have to go in and "Send and Receive" to get it to show new e-mails. I want it to do that automatically. Then, to get "Messenger" (IM) working. It just keeps saying "Signing in..."
I want to thank all who have been helpful thus far. It's a sweet phone to play with. Thanks
did you ever have any luck with getting Messenger to work, and hotmail to be pushed? I just got my Fuze today but it didn't come with a USB, so theres no way to get the cab file to my phone . I also now have to wait to flash the ROM, boo lol
Hello everybody,
Ive just received my HTC Fuze, i was kind exited. Just taked from the box to try the 3G browsing. I introduced the access points and the l/p settings for connection. It doest connects to the 3G network, but i receive no data, can't display any information. I don't know if the Fuze is faulted or something. Any idea???? thanks in advance.
htc fuze - alreadi connected to 3G network but wont navigate
Hello everybody,
Ive just received my HTC Fuze, i was kind exited. Just taked it out from the box to try the 3G browsing. I introduced the access points and the l/p settings for connection. It does connect to the 3G network witouth problem, but i receive no data, can't display any page/information. I don't know if the Fuze is faulted or something. Any idea???? thanks in advance.
PD: weather update works, and it connects to the 3G network. but dont work in Opera/IE
there is nothing to configure with the fuze if you are on the AT&T network. all you do is put in your sim card.
I had a few issues myself. If you were using isp.cingular then it might not connect there any more unless you purchase the tethering plan. Even then, isp.cingular will only work for direct push and tethering.

Try this
Start>>>>Setting's>>>>Connections>>>>Connections>>>>set up my proxy server>>>un-check "this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
i wound a useful thread, where you can disable some sort of hidden proxy.cab thing installed on device (programs>proxy tools), now IE works but still no luck with Opera, im looking forward to upgrade this factory AT&T Rom because i don't feel my Fuze very smoothly
PD: also check on what you suggested, but it was already unchecked.
Thanks for helping mate

im into another network, i bought my fuze unlocked in eBay, i tried the .cab app to uninstall hidden proxy (programs>tools>proxy) and now i can browse using IE, but not into Opera.
Im looking forward to change the factory ROM because it doesn't feel too smoothly.
Any suggested ROM/Radio to install, i really don't want cooked roms with extra apps/games
thanks in advance for the help mate

If I remember right, the default Opera browser on the Fuze is set up to only work with the proxy, so you'll have to flash a new rom most likely (but you really should do that anyway.)

i know, my bad, because i was getting errors from server, but when i find out there was 2 topics i tried to del my post, but i couldn't do it, didn't find the option, i apologize.
To help out, I merged the two threads into this one.
I've download skype 3.0 from various locations and threads in this forum but, no matter which install I use wheather install from PC to Htc Hd2 or install cab directly from Htc Hd2. When I input my login into into skype in the htc hd2 it just gets stuck to the skype screen with rotating blue circle like it's continuing to try and login and then eventually get a "network connection not available" or something even though I'm connected to wifi network. It just won't login, and I'm not sure what the issue is. I'm on T-mobile is it since the phone is locked to t-mobile does it have to be unlocked to use skype?
thanks
I thought Skype support was being pulled for mobile devices except iPhone??? Anyway have you told Skype what connections to use. In the settings somewhere it say Wi-Fi, 3G and ActiveSync MAke sure the entry with 3G is in use. Also if you don't use a proxy server, make sure it is unticked in the connections settings for the phone itself. I had this issue when I first used Skype on my HD2. I don't use it anymore as I thought the service via my mobile was utter garbage. Hope it works for you.

Thanks for the reply. Skype doesn't support the Windows Mobile version anymore but, apparently it's still possible to install it and get it working from what others are saying. I was previously only trying with the ActiveSynch/Wi-Fi but, this time reinstalled it and selected ActiveSynch/Wi-Fi/Mobile but, it's still doing the same thing and proxy server is unchecked.
Can't help with the issue you're having, but maybe useful for some people to know you can still download Skype for WinMo if you select server 2 from from the Skype download page on freewareppc.
Server 1 (skypes own download link) is no longer active.

Hey dude,
It happens with me all the time...what i do i uninstall it and reinstall
strange enough works after
I still have the problem. I was able to log in last year (2011), but not anymore. Maybe it's because of my custom rom? Just installed one...
This is my first android device and so far I like it a lot (was previously on windows mobile)
I help run a sim racing site and I'm having a problem with a url to a scoring program we use. It always says "Data connectivity problem. The server failed to comminicate." on the captivate.
and it has the upside down android in the spots the data should show in.
I have tried multiple browsers with no luck. It works fine on my old moto q and it works on my friends iphone both with at&t. I should also mention that it works on my captivate if I am on wifi.
Here is a link to our site h t t p://nr2003.com and here is a link to the content I'm trying to view h t t p://gs58.mtco.com:27035/ARCAHotlaps
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I was able to use Wifi, but not 3g. I believe AT&T might have an issue with directing to a certain point on your server (27035).
This is a connectivity issue with AT&T. I'll try Dolphin browser next.
EDIT: Dolphin did not work but Opera did work. Opera uses their servers to transfer data. I believe it helps speed up data transmission over 3g networks.
Thanks madjsp but would they have an issue with this phone only?
I don't understand why it comes through on the q and the iphone and they are both with at&t also.
I can get there on the captivate's default browser by using a get.php file.

Could that port be blocked on the phone maybe or is that possible? As you can probably tell, I don't have a clue about this stuff lol
Sorry for the spaces in the links but I can't post a link.
I've been browsing this forum for a couple years and just now had the need for a post
XDA is awesome!!
Some browsers do block non-standard ports, but I would expect it over 3G and WiFi. Do you have another Android phone you can try it with?
I can only come to the conclusion that the iphone data plan offers different browsing experiences. Try calling att and ask them about it. They might be able to tell you why.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I called at&t this morning and they said it wasn't an issue with them but who knows.
They told me to call samsung in the morning. I dread that call.
I am unable to find anyone here at work with at&t and android but I did test a droid through sprint and it worked perfectly with a 1.5 version of android.
I also tried it on a verizon ally on a 2.1 version of android but his is an ere27 build I think and mine is an eclair build.
If someone out there with a different build of android through at&t could try it, it would help tremendously.
Either way, I'm calling samsung when I get home from work in the morning and while I'm at it, I might as well mention the gps issues.
If I could get these two issues resolved, this phone would be perfect for me.
This has gotten even more weird.
With wifi the web pages open ok but with the 3G network they dont.
This all with the captivate browser, with the opera everithing is ok (but I like the original browser more)
Here are some pics One with WIFI(page ok) the other with 3G (page not ok)
I have Auto fit checked
text zize medium
no landscame only( thw problem does not fix)
I have reseted my phone and my browser and the problems does not fix.
Please help.
Hi everybody,
I have a little problem with Tellme when I'm on cellular network. I cannot dictate messages anymore when I'm not under wifi.
I can surf the web without problems and even apps from marketplace are working flawlessly, only that function is not working.
Is it possible that my carrier is blocking the port where the requests are redirected?
Thanks for any help
Alex
P.S.: my cellphone is a Lumia 710 and my carrier is Vodafone IT
Interesting. I have kinda the opposite here. Under my work WiFi I cannot connect. I run the network and I can't see where the firewall is blocking it so I would also like to know what port uses.
on Nokia don't you have a network connection setup tool? Check Nokia in the marketplace and see if it fixes it.

Thanks for your reply!
I already tried with Nokia app, but nothing changed...
I'm meeting the same issue....happened since Mango. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21800758#post21800758
Works fine on wifi though. Troubleshooted with LG (phone) and StarHub (carrier), but no joy to date.
Do you know if your carrier is blocking some kind of traffic (for example voip)? Maybe the problem is related to this... Maybe the Tellme service relies on a port our respective carriers are blocking because they are usually used by some service they block for convenience (like the one Skype uses for voice)...
Today, for some reason, everything restarted to work again, apparently without intervention... I'm going to mantain it tested over the next days to see if something changes...
Thanks to all for the moment!

It seems I have found the real solution: the culprit is Network Configuration app from Nokia, but I also think that all network configuration apps are creating the same problem.
I saw with an app that I had 2 connections configured and obiviously the one that has priority is the one written nobody knows where by the app, instead of using the right one I manually configured.
So I started the app again and I used a wrong carrier. The wrong connection has changed, but this time is disconnected so now I am sure the one used is the one configured by me.
Now everything seems to work for real, I'm obviously going to mantain it monitored. Hope this is going to be of any help!
Bye
