internet/data issues with flashed tilt

I flashed my tilt to an htc rom and I'm now having problems getting on the internet. Is there some place where i could find a cab file with at&t settings or anywhere I could find the settings and enter them by hand. thanks

still looking. thought I found a solution but it was for hermes.

try this network config...

thanks a lot. that seems to have done the trick.

turns out it didnt fix the problem. i can connect to the web via PIE but for some reason I can't get either gmail or windows live to connect. I don't know why it would work for some but not others.

Same problem
I am having the same issues too. IE and outlook mailbox can connect without any problem to the internet. Gmap too.
However, I am having problem with fring and skype applications. Anyone experiencing this issue?
I have flashed my Tilt with the original HTC Kaiser rom.

i think i might have the solution for ya...change the isp.cingular to wap.cingular

I'm having all sorts of problems, too. Very odd. I don't understand how it can work one minute, then not the next.
One thing that has seemed to help is to use the advanced configuration tool to keep the connection active all the time.
It's under Connections > Connection Always On.
Keep in mind, I had to choose MEdia Net. When I chose "My ISP GPRS", I couldn't connect at all....

I'm having the same issue. I didnt notice it until now with Fring. Over WIFI it works, over 3g it says cannot find internet.
I checked and my settings are already on the wap.
So other ideas?

I've also been having intermittent luck with the settings on my TILT flashed to HTC ROM.
One way I got around it for a while, was to connect to Pocket Internet Explorer to get the connection setup, then hop on Google Maps/MS Live Search/etc.
I also had this problem with MiniMo and Opera for a while. Eventually it all just worked itself out I guess. Also, make sure your 'proxy' settings don't get messed up. Sometimes I'll go into the connection settings and the "This connection uses a proxy" is checked... I'll go back in later, and it won't be. Not sure what the conflict is.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Here is a solution.
When you create settings using the Wizard it puts 2 connections. 1 MY ISP and the other MEdia Net.
GO to Settings -- Connections -- Connections -- Advanced -- Select Networks -- First drop down box make sure that My ISP is selected then click ok up top.
Try it and see if it works now.
If it doesnt select MEdia Net as the default connection and edit it, remove proxy and see if it works now. If still no luck remove MEdia Net from one of the connections, by managing existing connections tap and hold and then click delete. Then set MY ISP as the default connection in advance --select networks.
Good Luck.

That took care of it..
Actually what took care of it was going into the media net settings and unclicking the proxy settings..
It was using a proxy to connect but no server in the box. I clicked and whammo works now!
Thanx

Just wanted to mention had the same issue (particularly with skype) and made the change mentioned further up in the post about changing the connection setting from isp. to wap. and now skype works like a charm, thanks!

Some questions about WM6

Hello!
I'm new here, please bear with me... Also i'm norwegian, which i will use as an excuse.
Well, to the point...
I currently have vjgraces WM6 v3.7 on my Tornado (qtek8310).
In my SMS inbox the left softkey is "delete", but in WM5 the left softkey is "new". Is there any way to change this?
Also, in messaging "app", is there any way to add Hotmail as a option there, as I could in WM5?
Jarle
edit: these are not critical problems, I can learn to live with it. I just got MSN to work over wifi also, so the hotmail-issue is not so critical. But i would be nice to have the e-mails on the phone tho.
Also, anyone got a good notepad-app to recommend?
edit2: Got a lot on my mind today...
IP Phone. Does it ever work? In the Settingsmenu in Comm manager it doesn't work to select ip phone, and i cant find it in start->settings->connections.
Is this option disabled? Would be great to call for free in wifi-zones.
Sorry if a lot of my questions are noob and such, but as i said, im norwegian.
Also, (lots of alsos here today), before, with WM5, if I had the phone connected to my computer with USB, I could surf on the phone using the computers internett connection. Now I cant, why?

i can help you with the internet thingy but not on the other stuff,if you want to use your desktop connection for you wm phone just got to settings/connection/advance and set everything there to automatic that should let you use your desktop internet connection on your wm phone.

It is set to automatic on every option, but it still download over edge.
Anyway, thats not a big problem, its not often I use internett on my phone when its connected to PC anyway, but thank you for your help.

Also, anyone got a good notepad-app to recommend?
I use PocketNotepad by Tillansoft. Freeware, no troubles noticed yet.

Your 'Pass through Internet' issue
For your internet connectivity issue while connected to PC, please try this:
In 'Active Sync', go to File - Connection Settings.. The field, 'This computer is connected to:' must have the selection 'The internet'. If you made a change here, close Active Sync, restart the PC, connect the device and try.
You may be interested in these: If you use Wndows XP, search for the topic 'Residential Gateway' in Help and Support. Also look for 'Desktop pass-through overview' in Active Sync Help topics. Hope it helps.
JoLe.

Thank you Jole. I had the 'connection settings' in ActiveSync set to Automatic before. I changed it to Internet, and it works like a charm!
Going to test PocketNotepad also.

Unstable radio on unlocked Treo 750

My Software Version - TREO750-2.23-RWE
Firmware Version - 1.54.00.00
GPRS / 3G connection not always launches itself. I have push email and i find myself having to go to "manage connections" and activate it manually...
Can anyone help, please?

Try again athena_unlock program (run from TREO 750).
This util is obtainable after use CheetahUnlocker and extracting to C or D:/TempChe
or flash again WM6 TREO750-2.23-RWE form miniSD nammed CHEEIMG.nbh

Thansk for your anwser.
I can't run it again because it keeps telling that i already ran the upgrade...

extract cheeimg_fw.nbh, place it in a folder with kaisercutomruu.exe (search forum for this), rename cheeimg_fw.nbh to ruu_signed.nbh, execute kaiser*.exe
I do not recommend upgrading to 1.54.30.x

Thanks for your answer. But, if yoy don't recommend this upgrade, perhaps i 'd better stay still.. Right?

btw, it happens frequently that my data connection doesn't start when some application (as the IE) requires it; but, after editing the connection (without changing anything at all) it just starts working... till the next time.
Thanks,

instead of editing the connection, do this instead.
start
settings
connections tab
connections
manage existing connections
on your isp click and hold the middle button or stylus and you will get an option that says "connect"

Well let's explore the issue at hand: You do not get an auto-connect to GPRS/3G. Can you explain the situation a bit more. Is there data outbound (e.g. internet browsing or mail synch) or do you expect data to connect when there is no data outbound? When you attempt outbound data traffic do you get an error or simply no attempt at all to connect to GPRS/3G?

The situation arrives when i try to access the internet (IE) or push synch my corporate email (with Onebridge).
Sometimes it works fine; but... suddenly it stops working (i mean, the data connection).

Stop WinMobile establishing data-connections without asking

Hey mates!
First of all I wanna wish you a hapy new year
Ok, now to my question.
I've got a HTC Touch HD a week ago.
I recognized that it establishes a data-connection without asking me.
When i'm using Wifi - no problem.
But as I don't have a data-flat that gets quite expensive, if I can't use Wifi (most of the time no wifi available).
Is it possible to set up Winmobile so that it asks me BEFORE establishing an data connection?
I didn't find any solutions, google didn't help me, too.
Of yourse I could just change the adresses in the settings.
e.g- "internet.t-mobile.de" to "internet.t-mobile.deXXX" ---> no connection possible.
But i want to receive and send MMS at any time, so that would not be possible any more.
I hope you can help me, thx.

try nodata
this should do what you need....i think
http://www.modaco.com/content/pocket-pc-software/246171/new-free-utility-nodata/

thx, but not really what i need.
With this programm i still have to close connections by hand.
I just want WinMobile to ask me BEFORE it establishes a connection.
For example: When I open an programm which tries to download something, a popup should appear
--->
Establish data-connection?
[ ]Yes
[ ] NO
I hope u understand my problem

No one with the same problem here and a solutuon?

I have the same problem with my Touch 3G (Jade). Turning the Data Connection off in the Main Touchflow settings tab helps but doesn't stop it completely. The worst thing is that doesn't seem to download anything but just connecting is enough to start costing.

I spoke to HTC today and they gave me a solution to this problem. Go to Settings, Connections, Connections, Advanced and then Select Networks. There you should find a drop down tab with something like ******GPRS, where ****** is your network. Now now choose New and create a new connection name like "No GPRS" for example. Click OK.
You now have a title but no settings so when you select this one, the phone can't connect to the internet. It might attempt to connect but it won't go through. Don't worry about MMS as this uses a different set of settings and works perfectly (for me).
Hope this helps, Woolly.

Find what apps are creating the connection so you can prevent it. Spb Monitor should be able to show you that.

Using Modaco NoData (link given above) will just do the same saving your time (you don't have to create a fake connection set).
What schlitzohr1812 wants is a way to make WM ask for permission to connect. I haven't heard of anything like this, but if you assign a shortcut to NoData it's almost as easy as what you are looking for. By the way, despite the name, NoData will prevent WM from opening connections, not only to exchange data over them.
Just remember that if you disable the connection while it is already open, you still have to close it manually. Also beware that if in your Comm Manager you have an enabled "Data connection" button (on some phones it's always disabled when the connection is closed, on others it can be used to open it), that button WILL open a connection even if they are disabled.

Thx for helping guys, but "Black Antitoon" is right.
That's not exactly what I was searching for but better than nothing.
I'm used to my old nokia phone (N70) which asked me before.
Incomprehensible why Windows Mobile does not have such an option...

anybody wrote an app for this data permission yet please?

Skyfire Problems

Hi, i got a massive problem with the new skyfire version for winmob.
Everytime I start this fu...ng browser it uses the GPRS connection without any questions!!
one of my first steps was to disable the date connection on my HTC HD2, even with bsb tweaks, but nothing helps in this case. the other bad news is that this bull**** of app has got only one configuration possibility -> delete cookies, nothing else..not even a default connection type etc.
has someone tried this this browser or got some solution for my problem?
thanks

Uses GPRS connection before asking? What are you wanting it to do?
Mine works fine if I have 3G it uses that if not GPRS if WiFi is connected it uses that. I don't see a problem.
Or are you after an Opera Mini like experience where you get asked before it connects to the internet? For me this seems utterly pointless seen as the ONLY reason I can think of for you to open a browser is to go to the internet?
Am I missing something?
If Skyfire can sort out their scroll lag it would be hands down the best winmo browser on the market in my opinion.

try this.
- uninstall skyfire
- turn off gprs or set connection to my ISP
- turn on WIFI
- install and launch skyfire

Very good player, no question but I just payed 15€ without knowin´about this for being connected by GPRS :-(
my problem is that I got Wifi but it still connects to GPRS without any permission.
And yes the scroll lag is pretty bad, but also the zoom opertion with this smal window.but it´s the first version. waiting for update

just as a thought...
When I'm using WiFi I run through the following in order to be sure that it will use WiFi not mobile web.
1. Go to settings > Wireless settings and turn on WiFi
2. Wait for the WiFi to be fully connected (important!)
3. Turn off the data connection
4. Start whatever app you intended to use
I've even had opera trying to use mobile web when I've got WiFi on so this is how I ensure it.doesn't end up using it. Hopefully this will work for you and skyfire too.
cheers,
prime.
