Mine works. Where are you? Which provider? Which phone? etc etc.
--M
GPRS worked straight away for me after installing this ROM. Did you select the right provider when you setup your phone? You can rerun that (to verify) by going to Start > Programs > Accessories > Operator cfg (The phone will have to do a soft reset after this runs).
if u use T-Mobile change to wap.voicestream.com
My GPRS died as well. I had to flash the rom and the radio multiple times. I am using T-Mobile US. Radio 2.19.

The two arrows and the "X" means your Wi-fi is on, but cant find any wifi or hotspot connection. Go to comm manager and turn of the wifi.
here is a silly question.
Go into your comm manager and see if your Phone icon is on or off. (look to see if it has an X on it). If it is on, turn it off.. wait a minute... then turn it back on and see if that helps. Sounds like your phone is stuck in flight mode.

Wifi was off at the time - I made sure it was. I rebooted the phone multiple times with no avail...
did you try what i mentioned?
VanFanel,
Yes, I had the same problem with Faria's AKU3.3 rom. I'm using Tmobile and for some reason, nothing would allow it to reconnect to GPRS after about 1 day of use. Tried soft reseting, pulling the battery, disabling wifi, disabling and re-enabling the phone, making new connections profiles, disabling push, disabling activesync OTA, etc. You name it, I looked into it. I did a hard reset on the phone and it worked again for about a day and then just refused to connect again. Finally, I just installed the MB WM6 rom and everything has worked for the past week or so. The GPRS connection did pop up with an X for about 1/2 a day, but I have a feeling that was actually caused by Tmobile's network being down or unreachable in the area (thunderstorms), because GPRS was connected again in the morning. I never did figure out what exactly was wrong but I feel your frustration.

Yessir did that - nothing.
Doc_lee - excatly but i did not even have connection period. The funny thing I tried the mUn WM6 ROM and that worked just dandy, then I upgraded to Farias - and no dice, then I downloaded to Farias AKU 3.3 and it works just dandy.
Blah - I'll wait for the next revision
Solution!
I know why!
If you use "registry Wizard" you need to reenter your password, which is "tmobile" for your internet gprs connection.
Easy solution for a simple problem
Not sure what you are talking about. I don't see any option for a GPRS password within "Registry Wizard". Can you clarify or provide a screen cap?

GPRS Fix
Hey, I was experiencing the same problem with my orwells rom. I tried something but it's only been tested for one day...so far i have not experienced a drop out in my gprs connection like before (same as urs). create a new gprs connection with the exact same information as your previous one, just name it differently. go to settings-connections-add a new modem connection-put the same info as your current gprs settings - in "enter name for connection" put a different name.then under advanced- select networks select that "connection" as "program that automatically connect to the internet" then reset ur fone and see how it goes...just make sure u name ur connection differently compared to the old one - like creating a whole new different connection, only with the same gprs info

So let me get it straight - you also had the "two arrows and x" icon instead of the big G/E for the GPRS connection, then you tried a brand new connection and it worked fine?
Hi, on my Polaris I've my Gmail account which updates itself through IMAP4.
I want the following: Wenn i have a WIFI connection the email will update through WIFI, without WIFI I want hem to automaticly connect with GPRS.
This is standard with internet explorer.
I allready found out that you can switch the connection manually: Mailoptions --> Adanced server options --> Network connection, then change it to internet or GPRS
Is there a way to do this by for example making a network connection which can use both???
Don't know too much about the topic itself, but maybe try a more advanced email program like Outlook?

I'm still using my Hermes whith wm6, whith Outlook so there shouldn't be any real difference, but I haven't noticed the problem you're encountering. Whith WiFi on it uses it and when not, it uses GPRS/3G/HSDPA.
But then again, thw wifi network is set to connect to the internet, and the ISP settings are set to be automatically used.

Considering the fact that I got a 2-month free trial for Outlook, I doubt that the built-in email program is Outlook on the Polaris. Else, it would clearly state Outlook (M$ would not sell it anonymously , my guess )

strange, becouse the programm is called 'outlook E-mail' it even has the same icon as it has on my desktop computer.
Aren't there any Polaris users who have the same problem??
If it is the software which email program do you suggest to use.

Yeah I can do that, 'The Internet', only two options are available in the specified menu, 'The Internet' and 'Work' nothing else.
And the default messaging app is Pocket Outlook since ancient times.

Ok tanx, it seems that 'The Internet' is removed either by me or a programm, I was considering a hard reset for some other problems. (Activesync isn't working properly) so I think its the fasted way to solve this problem as wel.

After a hard reset still the same problem, the network connection selected for my IMAP mail is set to 'The Internet'
When connected to WIFI it will get my mail, when not, a pop up is displayed saying: Can't connect with current networkconfiguration. To change this configuration go to this link.
When I click the link I get connection configuration in which I didn't changed a thing.
I don't get it, doesn't anybody have the same problem as me.
Maby the new cooked ROM will help.
My Polaris configured automatically, I am not sure if it depends on the provider. I am using KPN.
It shows you the result during configuration.
Has yours completed normally?
I have had the same problem.
In Settings - Connections - Advanced - Select Networks - Choose there which connection u would like to use when device need to automaticly connect to the internet. I have there my GPRS Web settings and when i'm not on wifi it's using GPRS connection. When u have The internet there it cannot use it when u are not connected to it (when u are not on wifi).

Exactly, it's just weird that both type of connection can be used but you have to change it every time you want to use the other.
Which provider do you use??

Currently i'm using Vodafone, but i'll switch to KPN in March, hopefully it will work properly then.

Simple stated, I can use both for e-mail and internet and WIFI get's priority over GPRS/UMTS when in WIFI range.
ok... I've had this same problem where my TC won't check email, windows live, etc through my wifi, despite being connected.
The reason is... my wifi connection was setup to say it connects to "work" as opposed to "the internet".
For those having the same problem as me, follow these instructions...
1) Click on start, settings, connections, then "wi-fi" icon
2) Press (hold down) on your wifi connection, and then click "edit".
3) change "connects to", to say "the internet".
4) Click next, next, and finish.
5) Close the settings menu and try again.
Worked for me!
PS... yes I know I'm a donkey for messing it up in the first place, but it's all good fun learning!
Same weird problem here now.
It use to work without problem. Wifi was preferred network.
When wifi not available, GPRS/UMTS (T-Mobile NL) was used. Since yesterday i'm not able to retrieve pop3 mail through G/3G anymore. Internet is ok and WindowsLive also no problem. Also pop3 mail through wifi is no problem.
I'm going to hardreset now.
HI
I have seemingly lost my internet connection on my Touch Cruise. It worked fine at first but now when I try to connect to any web page, I get the message "The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again". It works fine when connected via Activesync and WiFi.
I have tried deleting programs, hard reset and re-installing programs one-by-one to see if any of them have caused the problem, but haven't got anywhere. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Bob
So it works when connected to the PC, and over WIFI but not over 3G?

Yes, works with WiFi and when Activesync connection, but no GPRS or GPS. I have tried hard reset and obtaining settings automatically from T-mobile, but this doesn't work. T-mobile have given me generic settings for PDA phones, but can't help me with my Polaris. They suggested I contact HTC.

THANK YOU!
i have been looking for an option to NOT allow applications to just connect to the internet randomly
Hi, I am desperately attempting to get my SPV E650 connected to the internet! All the GPRS settings are set up right to my knowledge, I have had the right settings sent out from Orange UK. Internet explorer is set to "automatically detect settings" and "the internet" is my selected network. I have tried relashing different roms and updating to latest Radio 4.1.13.54_03.10.90 radio but I get the same "Failed to connect to the internet. Data coverage may be unavailable." If I delete all settings then I get a different error message " Your internet connection is not configured properly. Please verify settings in Connections" but as said even when I do set them up I still receive an error!
I am at my wits end with this thing as have flashed and reflashed and still no joy and the bin is looking a good option for this little phone!
Please could someone offer any help or suggestions?

hi thanks for replying! my phone is sim locked to Orange and so cannot try different network. As for changing the authentication type I tried changing it from the default "None" to "PAP" and "Chap" but neither worked! When Internet Explorer tries to connect the "G" icon flashes on on off a couple of times but just wont connect! This has absolutely confused me! Anything else???

ok sure ill delete all the settings and try manually enter them, are you also with UK Orange? If not ill look for the settings and enter them. Im using the new Windows Mobile 6.5 Beta rom with the 4.1.13.54_03.10.90 radio. Strangely it did briefly work once I reflashed the radio to this new one (was able to get weather update on phone) but then didn't afterwards and was back to square one! Anything else I can try with this phone? Is there a suggested rom to work with my E650 or any other settings I don't know about? Its just weird how when I try to connect the "G" icon flashes on briefly but then fails to connect. Another strange thing is I installed Skyfire and whilst it didn't connect, it once changed the icon to the "G", I just don't get it!

With these different roms, h have tried manually entering the gprs settings, had them set up when Orange sent them to my phone and alos used the connection setup application and still nothing. I have even tried as said flashing the latest rom but still nothing either! I am totally stuck as to why this is not working, orange say everythings ok at their end and so it must be a problem with my phone.....somewhere!
first unlocked ur sim locked phone then try another gprs sim for internet if that work then okay so u face that two problem either ur setting are not correct or ur provider stop ur gprs so i suggest u put ur orange sim to any nokia s60v3 phone for correct setting if that sim gprs also not work in nokia s60v3 with correct setting then ur gprs service not activate on ur sim if u have not want unlocked ur phone or no near s60v3 nokia phone for check then try another orange sim for gprs try this all

Well I'm willing to bet the first guy didn't check the sim was provisioned with gprs and fairly safe bet itwas someone in india.
I'm not racist but many of them have not had the proper training since they started to handle most of the helpdesk queries.
When I worked at orange every time they put someone through to us from india they hadn't checked things properly.
Checking the sim was set up with gprs is the FIRST thing they should have done

Have you tried out the wireless configurator? I'm sure they won't have your exact phone, but the settings should be close enough.
dead link....
Got it to work, oddly enough I had to delete the connection, then create it again
Didn't change anything, just deleted it and made a new one with the same settings...
Hi there,
You're doing exactly what I've been trying to do but unable to. i have been unable to get a steady signal from T-Mobile, and the rare times that I did, generally I was unable to get data connection working.
Can you tell me exactly which APN settings worked for you? thanks.

Go into Settings>Phone>Network, select GSM Only and select MANUAL
Select TMobile
after this you should be able to make phone calls and get txt
then go to settings>connections>connections, select the top one (should be tmobile data) and select "manage existing connections"
go to general, then click delete
create a new connection, name it whatever you want,select GPRS 3G, use APN internet2.voicestream.com , no suername or password just leave blank, click finish

I did exactly as you described, but for the most part it's not working. I am guessing I have a radio problem. Which radio are you using? Thanks again.
James
some people have problems connecting with certain APNs on tmobile. first try ecp.tmobile.com that SHOULD work and its the newer apn that they made for 3g/smartphones to use so it should be faster EDGE. and if its not working delete all connection settings make a new one. no pass or username. IF it dont work no matter what contact tmobile they helped me when i had an att phone with them
