Internet via EDGE

Hi guys,
So I read some articles about using MDA as an Internet modem. However, all the manuals don't work for me. They suggest to install a driver for the phone but my WinXP automatically detects the phone and installs it as a Mobile Device #4. I use Xplore 1.1 and WinXP and can't configure connection. Phone: T-Mobile MDA using Cingular.
If you can please can help me with that, I would appreciate.
Thanks,
Tom

Fire up the "Internet Sharing" application. No need to use the phone as a modem anymore as it appears as a network adapter and has this app to enable Internet Sharing.

Need Getting Started CD

OK, a search on this gave me everything so I have to start this thread asking for a copy of the Getting Started CD. Sorry if it's already been discussed.
I can't get my pda to sync via usb. I deselect the "Enable advanced network functionality" and it still doesn't connect. Can someone post it or does anyone know where I can download one online? I'm hoping it has the correct drivers (Vista 64).

For vista you don't need the getting started CD... only the Windows Mobile Device center installed... also after the initial connection the Windows update should download it autimatically.

That's what all the instructions seem to say. I've uninstalled the existing devices, connected, installed, disconnect, uninstalled the device, install, etc and I still cannot get my pda to connect via usb. Can't seem to figure it out.

Check if activesync (on the PDA) connection settings... It should be set to connect via USB... Also you can download the WMDC from the M$ site...

Yeap, did them both. To get USB as a cradle connection option in ActiveSync in the PDA, I have to select the "Enable advanced network functionality". However, if I do this, I cannot make a connection. I remember when I had my HTC TC, I had to deselect the "Enable advanced network functionality" in order to sync via USB. But when you do this, you don't get the option to sync via USB when cradled.

I think I'm missing the USB modem driver. I'm found the zip file but I'm still looking for installation instructions.

And I think you should reinstall your OS, because there are some serious issues on your side...

OS meaning PDA OS? I did that 3 times, twice with cooked WM6.1 and once back to WM2003. I was able to establish connection with my factory WM2003.

nah... I ment the Vista (did I mention a hard reset anywhere?)... in my school, we have several verisons (ultimate, business,...), i386, x64 alike and we didn't have any problems like the one you described...

Worth a try...
Try download and manually (instead of through Windows Update) the Windows Mobile Device Center v6.1 update for x64 versions of Vista.

Yeap, did that too. Thanks though, it's appreciated.
I wonder if it's my firewall settings. Time to explore that option. I remember the old ActiveSync sometimes required manual fixes to the firewall.

Guys - I'm going to end this thread because I guess the thread title doesn't accurately identifies my issue and I don't want to double post elsewhere.

Program... is not digitally signed with trusted certificate. HELP!

I tried everything: SDA_ApplicationUnlock, HTC_ApplicationUnlock, SdkCerts.cab, SP_AllowCertificateInstall.cab, default_signed_disablesecurity.cab.
Of course experimented with hard reset, different Active Sync versions.
Just cannot install PocketUAE, PocketSNES and other unsigned apps.

use VS2008 to adjust your security level.

Hm you can use Security Configuration Manager to turn security off!
Install it to your PC and connect your Phone via ActiveSync. Then choose Security Off and click promote! After a little while it's done!
Download from MediaFire

Thank you very much!

Would you please renew the link for this program.
Having the same problem with "...trusted certificates"
Thanx in advance

Here you go: http://www.mediafire.com/?k1egbyo05gs

Gosh! Vielen Dank! Thanks a lot!
Wil it work with WM 6.1? Any instructions?
Will be much appreciated.

It should work with 6.1, same instructions as above.

This program is 100% working!!!
It was just perfect, man! As you said, I chose "Security Off" and it gave me report that "tool.cab" was successfully installed!
You saved my life, I'm really grateful!
Strongly recommended to everyone who has a problem with "Trusted Certificate" and *.cab files installation!
Once again, Vielen Dank!

On Windows 7 that program is garbage... Any solution?

Help with HTC Snap - same problem

I downloaded the Security Config Mgr to PC, connected phone with ActiveSync, ran program to turn Security Off but getting same error on phone to Security Mgr access "program or setting cannot be installed because it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate".
Its a new phone through work so I didn't know if they could lock up security/access in other ways.
Any thoughts?

If it helps, the Security Mgr indicates the current config on the phone is "One-Tier Mobile2Market Locked".

When I click on provision, I get a pop up on my phone to install Tool.cab, I click yes, but it said the install was unsuccessful and error comes up on my PC.

+1 Also having problems with the program on Windows 7. Any alternatative way to update the security settings on the phone?

this program works great.. you saved my day, buddy
Cheers

For anyone having a problem with this program on 7. It's likely that youre running x64 and it's also likely that this is 16 bit software. Install XP mode from microsoft.com and youre set

Hi, i seem to be having the same problems with this issue, i am currently using XP (sp3) and like with the folks that was having problems getting the pop up on the phone to install the Tool.cab and the unsccessful and error comes up on the PC, any further suggetions? Thanks for you help so far

I'm haing the same problem. My phone got automatically application locked after updating the ROM, God knows why!? I have Xp SP3 (secutiry manager wownt run under 64 bit systems) and when I click on "provision" after adjusting the security level for certificates I get a message in the phone "Installation of Tool.cab was unsuccessful". Going crazy... now I cannot run Andriod becuase it's not a "trusted application".... @#$%# you bill gates.

I found the solution Special THANKS to JZ SmartMort
Following simple steps:
1) Download following file: http://www.internet-tools.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/sda_unlock.zip
From archive we need only SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe
It allows Registry to be edited from PC.
Run it with working Activesync connection
2) Download Mobile Registry Editor: http://www.zipsoft.ru/catalog/mobile_registry_editor-v1_11.html
Also run with working Activesync connection
3) and modify the following keys to the values listed.
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","0000101b","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001005","4 0")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","0000101a","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001001","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001017","2 4")
It perfectly worked with HD2, but I guess it should work with all WM devices.
FYI, here are some other useful software packages that relax the security.

[Cotulla 6.1 ROM] Internet over USB not working?

Hey guys,
Usually I used to have internet on my Magician via USB using Windows Mobile Device Center or just WMDC (aka ActiveSnyc for XP users) and it always worked like a charm.
After updating to the newest version of Cotulla's 6.1 ROM (great job man ;D) and using searcher12's fixes (very nice aswell ) I can't seem to have internet over USB using WMDC anymore =\ I always though the configuration was pretty much automatic (just have to set it up on WMDC).
Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,
K.

im using windows 7 and 6.03 and mine is working fine, maybe just upgrade, 6.01 is outdated

Having the same problem, It used to work but not anymore
I use it to update teamstats but now I don't know what happened
please if there is any solution tell us

Hi I just found the problem and it's working again for me
1- go to WMDC ---> mobile device setting ---> then connection setting
another window will popup go to [this computer is connected to]
and choose [ Internet] instead of [Automatic]
that's what I did and It's working now
hope it helps you
