TILT bloatware removal question

Ok so I get the fact that if you soft reset when it installs all of the bloatware then it will cancel the install. However, I have done search but the answer was not very clear. When I stop the bloatware from being installed, does that mean I going to have to cinfigure all of the mms settings and internet settings? If so then when were would I find those settings for the at&t tilt? Also, will the cellular video cab for the 8525 work on the tilt or does someone need to make a new version? Any answers on this stuff would be greatly appreciated and like i said earlier, the search did not really give me a definite answer.

did the search not give you a deffinate answer or just not the one your looking for? You can find the MMS and WAP setting by search for Cingular MMS settings on google and this forum and also the cingular video will work with MediaNet as your ISP settings.

It still has proper internet settings. Haven't check the MMS though...

or you can always boot it up normally with all the bloatware, copy all the settings, and then hard reset and do the anti-bloatware boot.
I read that the att.cab file is the settings cab which you can install separately after un-hiding the install cabs on the tilt...? can anyone verify this?

The soft reset upon initial configuration on the tilt should leave the media net (3g) settings in tact...i dont know about the MMS yet but text messages, internet and push email with my exchange server work fine right now.

If any of those settings need manual configuration, all those settings can be found here.
One thing I noticed is the connection profile MEdia Net does not have the proxy settings out the box. The support page will have you input those settings. I find it's not necessary with the auto proxy detect in place. Also using MEdia Net with proxy settings may not allow CV to work.

MMS works fine. The only thing you may want to do is download the enable and disable proxy cabs. Check out this thread on HoFo: http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1257055

Windows Live not working over mobile connection?

Gents,
Is anyone experiencing problems with Windows Live on their Touch Pro?
I can't seem to sign into MSN or sync hotmail while on a mobile connection. Wi-Fi works fine...
Any ideas?

check your contract with your provider.
Many networks block MSN because they would rather you pay for SMS messages.

Go to your network settings and uncheck the 'this connection need a proxy' setting. Sorry, don't have my phone in front of me so can't be more specific!

Working ok on Vodafone. When I've had this problem in the past on previous devices, it has been due to messed up connection settings - usually if I've restored from an old backup.
Try running the connection wizard again, and as nuttyphilt says, go to:
Settings > Connections > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks > Edit > Proxy Settings, and make sure that "This network uses a proxy server...." is unticked.

Legends. That was it. Weird, I never had an issue on my Kaiser, I guess teh auto-config has changed slightly.
Thanks for your help guys it's much appreciated.
EDIT:
This also fixes the YouTube application.

Having the same problem
I've unchecked teh proxy settings option but I still cant connect to the internet (or sync hotmail) - I'm on vodafone by the way

I have Tmobile and I cant for thelife of me connect to the internet, get mail updates or weather updates, unchecked the proxy but nothing, I have a data plan as well.

Hi,
Which T-Mobile do you have? T-Mobile Germany has blocked some ports for some of their products. There is a cheap data flatrate with limited speed and port 80 only (no POP,IMAP,NTP...) and a expensive Flatrate without this limitation.
Do you have the right conection settings?
Check if your APN is internet.t-mobile
User: t-mobile
PW: t-d1
Check if this connection is your default connection for Internet.

Out of interest, do you use messenger on the vodafone network, and if so, have you ever been charged outside of the data plan? The T&C's state that these kind of applications will be charged at £2 per meg. Just wondered if voda actually take any action?

email problem after hard reset

Hi,
Just hard-resetted my touch pro, and now i cant make e-mail work.
All email account settings have same as before, so its pretty much hopeless.
Internet browser works fine.
Its on t-mobile, and every time i try to connect to new e-mail account, i got error message: "cant connect with current settings".
What am i missing?
Any help?

this is a known issue with some windows mobile devices im suffering from the same sadly
usually a hard reset should work
can u receive but not send?

I had this and posted a fix for it somewhere. It's a stupid simple setting....
I'll find it now and post back if i can

OK - found my reply in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2633874
To save u the hassle I'll paste agian it here:
I've been pulling my hair out over this for a few hours and FINALLY solved it. For me the issue seem that when T-Mobile downloads all its settings to the phone the Internet service is called "T-Mobile Internet" where the email settings are trying to use "Internet" (which then no longer exists).
So in short - this is how I fixed it...
At you mail inbox: Menu > Tools > Options > Click ur email account > Edit Account Setup > press Next until you get to the Outgoing (SMTP) Mail server settings page > Click the Advanced Server Settings link at the bottom > change Network connection to your internet provider instead of the default "Internet" (e.g. mine's "T-Mobile Internet") > carry on through the pages until finished. It should now connect without the Error Synchronising message.

wow, thanks mate. You are the man!
Knew its something simple, just couldnt figure out where to look for it.
Everything works now.
Thanks a lot.

Good to hear - no probs!
(btw - u might want to add [SOLVED] to the start of the title of this thread - helps others no it's been fixed.)

att data problems?

so my phone has been fine ive used romeos and im now using proven
data was never an issue then today im having connection problems
i usually use the my isp connection but now when i try to connect i get the error saying it cant connect for an unknown reason
i switched to media net i can call i can text and i can send pic msgs weather in TF3d works IE works and opera works google maps works and even beejive IM works
but if i try to check email it says "cant connect with current settings" skyfire wont work and kinoma freeplay wont work
wifi works for everything
what could the problem be?!

i think i know why because i have a special employee plan that just got changed and somehow the settings may be altered?
still need a fix though

no one has an idea??

i have set media net default settings and even downloaded the restore and remove proxy cabs tried both and still no

someone anyone?

go to setting-connections, then under media net click on manage exisiting connections
now click on the proxy tab on the bottom, make sure the second box (this network uses a proxy server) is unchecked...
I had the same problem when I switched to Proven

Go to e-mail account options(Menu>Tools>Options)>Choose an account>Edit account setup>Go to that page where Advanced Server Settings tab(click on it)> Under network connection choose MEdia Net. That should fix your problem. Do the same for each of yours e-mail accounts.

the unchecking proxy made it work even though i had tried the cabs for disabling and enabling
i work at BBY i had been using the My ISP
but they just changed our plan to a cheaper one thats much better and i guess they disabled ISP from use

The only option I have is 'internet' (so I can't change it to Media Net. When I check my connection media net is the only connection I have though. Any ideas how to get that changed in my ActiveSync/Email settings?

use this cab..it adds a new connection named ATT GPRS which has a different dns..i have been using this since i found it and have never gone back because by utilizing these dns servers you get much better speedtest results and it seems to never have any connection problems..thing is you gootta use a tool like advanced config and go into connection settings in the program and disable medianet from being used as a connection because if both are active your device randomly chooses which to connect with so you gotta make sure medianet is no longer active..here is the cab

i guess next time it hsppens make sure the feature is the correct one on your account. call your regional account executive to check it out.

it happens from time to time because when medianet is on for quite sometime, it can't authenticate the phone. Easy fix is just to just disconnect from medianet then try it again. You can do this by sliding to settings and clicking on "communications." After that, just turn off data connection and reconnect.

Twitter app Peep working over 3g

Hey I managed to get Peep working over 3g by removing the proxy setting for my connection.
I use my HD2 on T-mobile and the connection wizard automatically puts in settings for proxy for you.
I found that If you go to Settings > wireless controls > menu > Connections
Click setup my proxy server and untick "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet" option
this then worked perfectly - I can't say for other networks as I only use T-mobile.
if it doesn't work for you - just delete the existing connection. go to settings > wireless controls > setup a data connection. and your settings will be back to normal.

That's just T-Mobile UK being idiots... Pity it doesn't remove the YouTube blocking...

Wow this works!
Thank you, now I can twitter without wifi

Youtube works fine for me on t-mobile. You need to register on their site and remove the adult content block.

Problem is that it requires a credit card, of which I do not have (you know, what with being under 18...).
I'll just have to wait...

Does it? i dont have one, i just deactivated it and youtube works, simple as that. Maybe it depends how you bought the phone, but my account assumes im 18 since i had to be to get the contract in the first place.

Thanks, fixed it for me , was still wondering why I couldn't use Peep over HSDPA/3G

Big thanks, forgot to check that proxy thing..

Unchecking the 'use proxy' option did not work for me - how can I delete the existing connection? All I can do it seems is either manage the connection or add a new one.
I'm on T-Mobile as well and although Opera and some other programs such as Yomomedia work fine over 3G, the HTC applications including email and Peep just do not update unless there is wifi. I tried updating the 'operator database' settings and it told me that my settings were up to date.

Update - I now have GMail working on 3G, this is how:
- Enabled exchange relationship with GMail in ActiveSync (http://www.google.com/mobile/sync/)
- Enabled Directpush in wireless settings
- Enabled 'Sync while roaming' in account settings for my outlook email account (on the device).
Normal email accounts still do not update on 3G (IMAP/POP), only the exchange system seems to work.
HTC Peep/Twitter is still not working unless there is a Wifi connection or USB to PC connection. If I try and 'update now' on 3G it says that the network is not available. I can confirm the network is available and have checked the 'download data while roaming' box in Peep settings.
Any ideas?

So, just removing the proxy didn't work for me. I found an option to update the connection database. I did this (downloads from HTC I guess) and then disabled the proxy. That fixed my Peep connection
The update the connection database, goto settings, wireless, data, menu, update database.

I hope anyone can help me with the problems i am having with HTC Peep,
Some of the time it works fine while updating. other times i get a connection error.. but thats not the worst problem. i was wondering if anyone could help me find a register setting or tweak that would set a maximum limit to the amount of tweets in htc peep, the ammount of errors and loading time of the tab seems to increase when the ammount of tweets become more and more. for now the only solution i have found to speed it up again is hard reset and i dont like that if anyone could help me i would be really greatfull!
