HTC Touch Viva T2223 (AKA Opal) Problems with AT&T Connections - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I've just bought this phone/ pda. I am an AT&T customer in the US. Everything works fine, except the WHEATHER application in the TouchFLO.
It is not possible to update the cities, unless connected through WIFI or during ActiveSync with the computer.
I do have unlimited data plan, and the user manual says that the application connects through GPRS/EDGE network.
All other apps work great, Opera, Internet Explorer, Messenger, Skype, but this specific application (Weather) does not work.
The menu options for that app are vety limited: "download data automatically" and "download when roaming".
Does anybody know about a patch to fix this or how to modify the connection or port the app uses to connect?
I've tried the HTC Home patch and after install it, still doenst work,
Please help, I called HTC customer serv, and they have no idea.
Thank you

at&t rom 1.62.502.0 internet problame!!!

hi all
im new here many thanks for that amazing group here.
i have yesterday upgraded my rom of my at&t tilt (kaiser tytn ii) to the new version, well all looks ok BUT...
since then i cant get internet connection and mms messages.
i have checked it the whole day today with my network company (im in israel) and we have reconfigured the modem connections but nothing its dead.
before i have done the upgrade all was just ok since yesterday its no connection.
i have checked arround and i found that there are many users that have the same problame all around the world.
since any mms message goes thru internet (etc. gprs,edge,hsdpa) i assume that the problame is with the internet connection and that blocks the mms messages.
my cell company told me that as she sees all is ok and i remember my settings too.
also even when i connect my tilt with usb to my computer i cant go on the web bacause it says "no connection".
i assume that they have planted in the registery any value that blocks any internet connection (as gprs etc.) if its not thru the own supllier, i can understand also why but the fact is that i get hspda connection and i see the icon of "connected" but somthing blocks it !!!!!
is there a way how we can digg in and remove that block that dosent allow the internert?????
is there a way to bypass it ????
or maybe i should go back to my old ROM is that possible????
again i remind u that:
1) all worked excellent till yesterday
2) the HSDPA establishes a connection but the explorer is dead.
3) i cant even connect thru my pc with usb while my pc is fully connected via dsl to the internet.
4) all setting are same and at once its "no connection"?
5) i see that meny users have that problame
if there is any way let me know
also how bad and ugly will it be if i go back to my old ROM and how do i do it.
many thanks

Where did you download the rom from???
I know the one at HTC America is intended & configured for AT&T customer in North America. If a ROM was not released on your local AT&T or HTC site, that may contribute to your issues.
You may want to DL the network configuration wizard & give it a go at reconfiguring your device.
some good news
hi all
many thanks for visniak you were right.
it was some hidden silly proxy that i needed to kick out.
now the internet works great BUT i cant send MMs messages.
the configuratins are all ok (i checked it today with my network company)
they say that thats a ROM problame (means that this might be a problame because i upgraded it to ROM 1.62)
is that right???
is there a solution???
many thanks
it's like BEZEQ and BEZEQINT
each blaming the other.............
I don't use MMS.
But most likely your settings are incorrect.
Does the new AT&T ROM solve the Low Volume when using Bluetooth?
That is the only iserious issue I have with the Tilt.
I have been a Symbian user forever and the AT&T Tilt(Unlocked and using it on another service provider in India) is my first exposure to Windows mobile. I upgraded to the new AT&T Rom(1.62.502.0) and the low bluetooth volume issue is sorted out...I'm using the SE 970 stereo BT headset, which is working fine.(ADVANCE that should solve ur query)
My only issue now is that i am unable to use the Internet Explorer thru GPRS. Strangely i could configure and download my E mails thru Outlook. Also, when I Sync the Tilt with my PC, IE works fine using the net connection from the PC. Any insight/clues why I'm facing this issue?

Any way for WM6 to ask befor automatically connect 3G/GPRS?

Hello community:
I need your help on this.
every time i accidentally click the weather icon on my HTC Today, or open opera mistakenly, or any other software wants internet access, WM6 automatically connects 3G without asking, which is killing my phone credit.
Is there a way for it to always ask before making a connection to internet? Or to limit internet connection to WIFI only?
thanks for any help.
settings->connections->connections->advanced->select networks
there are some texts showing "programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using"
and a dropdownbox
select the dropdownbox item which is not called something like "my isp"
but pick the one thats called something like "my network"
then all programs trying to access the internet will be forced to use activesync as internet connection and if activesync is not connected they will fail!

sk-Tools Lite has an option to disable the GPRS AutoConnect. Or you might do a search in your Registry for the key and set it to '0'....

Vbuzzer problem

Hey there...
I'm new here so sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place....I hope to become an active member of this community in the future hopefully.
Anyways I have a HTC P4350 (Herald) and tried to configure the VOIP Program Vbuzzer on it. I installed WM6VoIP.cab and SipConfigTool_2_0_1.CAB
and configured the SipConfig tool with the server as vbuzzer.com and port as 80. Then I configured "Sip Over 3g/GSM" & "Enable via Reg."
The problem is that now I'm getting the notification that Internet calling is available ("Internet Calling Available" is displayed on the home screen) but when I open the dialer, it still shows my GSM operator instead of VBuzzer....Is my GSM operator blocking Vbuzzer? Is there a way to go around this problem? I would really appreciate your assistance...
similar problem here
same problem, I did get my hands on a vbuzzer for windows mobile but I'm yet to get an account with them. Does anyone else use vbuzzer here on their phones. wing,herald, p4350 ?

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!

HTC HD2 - Download Email Via Wifi possible??

Hi Guys
I have the HTC HD2 on a T-Mobile contract, now I have recently noticed that T-mobile only allow downloading of email via t-mobile internet on the device, they lock you out of downloading email via a wifi connection.
Is there an open source Wifi app that allows me to choose between wifi and my providers connection when downloading email.
This will come in really useful when going on holiday, otherwise I will get hit by high data charges, which is what I dont want.

The built in "messaging" program lets you download emails in your "messaging" program. So Wi-Fi works.
in e-mail setup, under "advanced server settings", change "network connection" to "the internet"
A more detailed explanation
Check this post here for a step by step how to do this:

HTC HD2 autoselect cellular/wifi email download
Well, this thread has half-way answered my question. However, on my phone (Telstra Next G network) if I use the above solution I can then ONLY download via wifi. I would like my phone to automatically use wifi when possible, and otherwise use cellular. Every other program on the HD2 that uses internet seems capable of this, so why not email? Any solutions?
yes,i learn it......
--------------
Same here on Energy TP2 rom... If I sync email through Windows Live, everything works fine. If I click the "Send/receive" through pop-up menu on Sense UI, no GPRS, not works...
