HTC Tytn / Hermes - Blackberry Connect Client

If anyone is interested in getting Blackberry Connect working on their Hermes / Tytn / etc, take a look at:
http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=162
It works nicely... I tested it with both BES and BIS.

would love to try this out, but the second link doesnt work.

They must have changed the link. I'll dig up the page I found it from.

It looks like they are temporarily putting the files to the link I put up. I updated the post, go to:
http://support.vodafone.de/index_l3_2z.html and download it under VPA Compact II, Desktop Manager 2.1 für VPA compact II (13,7 MB), it is the same thing.

Thanks for the link. One more thing, will this only work on vodafone, or can I use it on TMO in the U.S.?

I tried to use it for Cingular but it says Blocked - Radio in use. Any suggestions?

I tried to use it on T-mo usa. It registered fine and t-mo saw the new pin, but T-Mo won't let me change my handheld. I've been running into this trouble recently with T-Mo. I'm guessing they are blocking all non-blackberry devices or not authorized by T-mo USA to register on their network.

Ok got it setup but I get a conflict from my phone trying to connect to wap.cingular and when signed on I dont get my e-mails throuhg balckberry.net.
Is there any way that both can coexist on this phone happily?

Can anyone confirm the Vodafone Blackberry solution works for Tytn ? Tmobile USA with BES server? That's the only condition that I will go with Tytn. Thanks.

Did you figure out how to run BBC with the TyTn? I am new to the TyTn and I have the "Blocked - Radio in Use" problem. My UTMS symbol does show something is continuously connecting to network, but so far I cannot find the program.
Thanks in advance

Change the Band to GSM only. BB Connect does not work over UMTS (..yet).

I have BB connect working fine via UMTS and GPRS - I dont have a strong enough signal at my house to get UMTS / 3G, but when I get closer to town the TyTn automatically switches to UMTS / 3G and BB still works fine.
I am using a HTC Rom with a Vodafone blackberry enabled account and synced to the BlackBerry Exchange server

If it says Radio in use that mean that you probably have another program that's actively using the gprs connection (i.e. Direct Push)
I'm also using the tytn with a Tmobile US sim.
I dont know what you guys are talking about when you say you get a "New Pin detected" Message.
When I go to BB Webclient through tmobile.com, it shows my old pin number in there. And I cant change it.
Do you actually have to setup a webclient account, or it's supposed to work as long as you are provisioned for blackberry.net?

BBConnect + ActiveSync Direct Push coexistence
Hi -
I've got BBConnect v4.x on a Tilt/Tytn II, partly coexisting with ActiveSync Direct Push. This is using a T-Mobile SIM, subscribed to the BlackBerry Enterprise plan (unlimited data, plus access to BES gateway).
I say "partly coexisting" because typically either ActiveSync is getting direct push of new items or BBConnect is actually connected to the company BES. When ActiveSync is "winning", BBconnect typically shows "blocked" (and may say "radio in use"). When BBconnect is "winning", the phone will report that it can't "dial" its data connection.
But sometimes both are working simultaneously...
What is the magic incantation so that they will start up in the right order and both work at the same time?
Many thanks,
Jay

HTC S710 Problems - help!!

Have 4 problems with my unlocked htc S710 phone:
1) Problem is I can not get the phone to work on one of my gsm providers - my home provider actually. They currently operate on the 1800/900 band. I will see the network (when set manually) get full signal and detect gprs but for some reason I can not make or receive any calls.
Has anyone had this problem ?? .... and what can I do to fix it??
2) Using the other gsm providers SIM the phone actually works (makes and receives call, surfs the net) - provider operates on the 1900/850 band. Problem is it shows a roaming symbol on the phone.
Why is that there? and how can I remove it?
3) When using WiFi i find i can not surf or retrieve mail as my office uses a proxy setting. I have attempted to setup for the proxy but still not working and the manual does not show you.
current settings
call from : work
call to : the internet
proxy name/port: <name>:8080
type: http
username/password saved
Can somone tell me what I am possibly doing wrong?
4) Why cant i select the GSM band I want to use like in Mobile 5 .... i can t even find the option ?

take the settings from:

Problem with this update is I am in JAMAICA, i do not see my providers. We have (2) GSM providers Cable & Wireless Jamaica and Digicel Jamaica.
What you suggest ??

does your provider have to register IMEI's of phones?
it may restrict what phones you can use with them

Digicel not supporting WM6 devices
The problem is that currently Digicel is not supporting the radio firmware embedded in WM6. I found this out after upgrading my HTC P4350 to WM6 to find that I had no connectivity. I ended up being forced to downgrade to WM5. As the S710 is not available with WM5, your only option is to switch to C&W.

Thanks for the response. I was forced to switch to C&W cause the support people and Digicel had NO CLUE ... sad really ... i guess we now know who is the better network! But tell me something i noticed when using C&W the roaming symbol appears on the phone. This does not stop any features from working but i just wanted to know if you had that problem and if so how did you get rid of it.

same here. i too am facing same problem.. when i have vodafone sim i can make incoming n outgoing call but when i change to airtel i get the probs.
guyz help me out with this probs.
thnx

Treo 750 Dialing / Range problem

I have little problem with my treo 750.
When i have two (or less) mark of range i cant make and recive a call.
Call in progress - dialing - hanging up.
I can't make internet connection too.
(I try using treo on GSM, AUTO and UMTS. Band change dont help.)
When i have full range everything is ok.
Does someone have similar problem ?
CzarnyDD

I seem to have a similar problem with my treo 750.
I recently unlocked it using the cheetahunlocker as it was locked to vodafone.
I had previously already updated my mobile to windows mobile 6.1 using the desktop updater.
When I installed the hard_spl and changed the rom, the program crashed and stopped working. I then looked around for a workaround and copied the unlocker program to the phone and unlocked it successfully (also used the 2nd CID? unlock).
I then used the sd card method to flash the radio (obtained rom from the desktop updater I had).
The phone booted and I did a hard reset.
The sim I tried on the mobile are a t-mobile sim , a vodafone sim and an o2 sim.
The phone seems unlocked as the t-mobile sim works.
However, it is impossible to make a call and the phone hangs up as soon as I dial. What precisely happens is that I dial a number, the phone says dialing and then hanging up.
I tried another hard reset.
I tried to use the program in my temp folder which came with the desktop updater recovery tool but that did not work either?
I tried messing around with the band and gsm/utms/auto without success?
Is there anything else I can try?

Skype on VDA V (HTC 710 from Vodaphone)

Hi,
I tried to use Skype on my VDA V (Vodafone branding / SDA appl. unlock). Installing is no problem, but if I try to call (Echo and Sound test) then Skype tell "connecting", then ringing (rings one time) and then Skype switch of.
Under Menu Settings / Telephone / Internettelefonie (german/ means Voip) I have switch on "ever if available".
Is it a special Vodaphone problem, that Vodaphone ROM is not allowing Voip (I think Vodaphone would like that user call about Vodaphone net) ???
Can you help me ?
Regards Odiad

GPRS settings maybe?

I'm using the same config as you do, but in the Netherlands Vodafone.
Did you run the Vodafone setup (downloadable .exe) for provider configuration? (or do it manually thru the information on the Vodafone website).
When connected thru WIFI I have no problems. Using GPRS I sometimes first need to "create" the connection manually (by opening a page in IE or other internet needing program)
Make sure you downloaded the latest skype mobile for the S710. The "general" version doesn't work for me, probably 'cause of the firmware.
Hopefully these were the things you were looking for.

HI Syserror,
I ve just downloaded newest version of skype (2.5 Beta). But when I try to use skype I see same behavior. I see my Skype contacts (that means I am connected with skype and with my account) and I tried calling echo/sound test service and there was stiil the same probelm (connecting, one times ringing, and then Skype switches off.
So version of skype is not the reason why it doesn't work. I am connected with wifi (my home WLAN router, I can go into internet without problems, or get my Emails - so WLAN is okay). Any other ideas??
regards Odiad

HTC 710/ VDA V (Vodafon) with branding, bujt with sda appl. unlock

Hi,
it's me again. I googled a little bit and found a link to skype 2.2.0.18 which should run on VDA V. I tried and yes it runs. Or I hope so - I tried only echo/sound test service because I have no money on my skye account. But echo and sound test runs well, I think it is okay now.

WM 6.1 & Orange UK

Hi Guys,
I have just replaced my trusty Wizard (running Wizard Love ROM WM5 and working great on Orange UK) due to me damaging the external antenna plug which caused the whole phone to cease receiving a signal
I bought myself a replacement Wizard that has WM6.1 Pro ROM on it with HTC Touch Flo. I put my Orange SIM into it and cannot do much else now other than send & receive phone calls - no SMS, no GPRS, also cannot access the "phone" icon under the settings menu or even access the "SIM Manager" either.
Any ideas anybody? I suspect the Orange SIM myself!!
Many thanks in advance.
Mike.

Maybe your sim card is damaged in some strange way?

I'm not sure - the SIM works great in my other Wizard running WM5. In fact I had this same problem with my other unlocked Wizard, and it was only after changing to the "Wizard Love" ROM that it was sorted out.
I have read that it may be that the radio ROM needs updating - I don't really know.
I suspect there are other UK users out there on the Orange network who have WM6.1 running OK.
Cheers,
Mike.

Better check your SIM card in other phone for reliability ;] cheers

I have and the SIM works fine.
Although the OS is upgraded over what was on my previous Wizard, it would appear that the IPL/SPL and GSM are older versions on my replacement phone. Is it possible to upgrade these without affecting the WM6.1 install??
Cheers,
Mike.

After a lot of reading I seem to have now sorted out the problem.
I flashed a new radio ROM from 02.07.10 to 03.02.11. I put the SIM card back in and found I had a number of voicemail messages and SMS's waiting for me. No changes to any settings and I can now access SIM Manager etc, etc
I'm just happy that I'm back in communication!!

Well, further to the above I cannot now access GPRS or the MMS service.
I have tried all the GPRS settings from my older Wizard and flashed different Radio ROM's on my replacement Wizard. Now on Radio ROM 02.19.11 as I did read this seems the best one for the UK.
Anybody else on here use Orange (UK) for GPRS or MMS, and has it working so I can see where I'm going wrong??
Thanks in advance.
Mike.

I've done a lot of reading and had a play...seems to work now. I even have the "E" symbol on screen, so I'm getting an EDGE connection now that is a first!!
I was using CR86 Touch HD Cruise Edition, so I flashed XDA2's WM6.5 M2D ROM onto it instead. This then automatically picked up a GPRS/EDGE connection, but I could not access the SIM...I got the "the phone is not ready, wait 15 secs etc,etc" message. I then flashed the Radio ROM from 2.19.11 and took it up to 2.69.11 (I have previously tried 03.02.11, 02.37.11, 02.25.11, 02.19.11 to no avail)
Seems to work OK, I have sent & received a MMS messages & standard SMS now.
I just need to set up my email & sync my contacts (again)
