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 )

I use my e-mail account of my ISP.
When in range of my WLAN it uses WIFI else it will establish a connection with GPRS.

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.
Hai.
First of all I'm very happy with my HTC Touch Pro UK. Before this I used a TyTN II, also a very nice device.
With the Touch pro a have a little problem when retrieving email through IMAP. On the TyTN II the email was retrieved through WiFi if there was a WiFi connection and through 3G when there wasn't.
For Outlook (ActiveSync) on the Touch Pro this works fine, but for IMAP connections, it only wants to connect through 3G, whatever I set in the Advanced Server Settings of the IMAP account. When I choose Vodafone GPRS it connects through 3G, also when there is a WiFi connection active.
Can this behaviour be altered ?
Hope anybody has a solution for this.

I wasn't aware that this was a ROM issue. On the TyTN II it was working with the default ROM. I hoped it was just a setting somewhere...
I'll wait for some more tweaks or a new ROM..
I've got the same problem with hotmail using windows live. It always connects via GPRS rather than use the available WiFi. I have found that if the wifi is turned on before soft resetting the device - ie it then starts up with wifi on, i can sync via the wifi connection until the wifi connection is turned off and then it always defaults back to GPRS.
Hmm, I would advise (since i havent got a device here yet to test...will do tomorrow) that you go through the wifi settings and make sure it is set to access "the internet" and not "workplace" or anything else??
Helping out would be so much easier if it was sat right infornt of me...will be soon

Already done that and selected Internet under Wifi. All other programs connect correctly to WiFi ie, Opera Mobile, Opera Mini, GPS Update etc.... its just email that gets it wrong.

Tried the same and results are also the same.
Did anybody find a fix for this ?
Do a search for Modaco nodata. It should allow you to disable the regular 3G data connection, which should (hopefully) force the phone to use wlan if you have a working connection.
This is a fix that really needs to be sorted. If wifi is working, leave 3G alone!
Damn thing is costing me money! I'm not a on a data plan, so it costs a lot more than if I was.
I didn't take a data plan, because everywhere I go, I have access to wifi!
I shouldn't have to disable 3G!
Can't it be done automatically? If wifi has an active connection, don't use 3G/HSPA. Since there is already the nodata program, all it needs is changed to be auto. And yes, I use the word "all" very loosely, I don't know how to code for mobiles!

I already tried this, doesn't work. Connection times out.
I used to have this issue until i switched my settings to "the internet" and not work. did u change both the settings for the wifi card AND the settings for the access point? (not sure if that was what made the difference, but now everything is going through wifi for me.

This is part of the solution IMHO. IMAP now connects through wifi when there is a wifi connection available, but it doesn't fallback to GPRS/3G when wifi is not available.
Any other fantastic ideas ?
Nice fixed one problem, created a new one, this I can't reproduce since my email isn't imap. For everything else if there is no wifi it will connect to edge.
anybody out there with an IMAP email account with the same issue?

What do you use for email ? POP3 ?
Hello,
I have the following issue.
I have an hosted exchange email account,this works with or with proxy server settings for Vodafone Live.No problem!
I have Gmail account(IMAP) this only works without the proxy settings,otherwise it couldn't sync.Problem.
And i need to go to a website(my bank) that needs proxy server setup.Problem.
Conclusion,or i can use a Gmail account on my Touch Pro or going to the banking website and not both.
I am from The Netherlands,Vodafone branded Touch Pro.
Is there a possibility to solve this issue or switch between network with and network without proxy?
Thanks for your help.
i wouldnt recomend online banking over a gprs connection
does your google acount have to be imap if you set the pop forwarding on the google side of things this should work
i sued my vodafone uk tp with my googlemail account no probs
I also can use Gmail with POP3 settings.
The only problem is how to set it up.
Cause when i want to create a new mail account with gmail ,my Touch Pro automatically uses Imap.
How can i change this to Pop?
Thanks
Just disable the proxy... then you can't go to vodafone live website, but you will be able to do everything you want for the rest.
Gewoon die proxy eruitknallen!
Maybe you are right about this,just get rid off the proxy settings.
I also sent a mail to HTC about this,if there is a solution to use both.
U never use the vodafone live... in fact, i have never seen it, so it doesn't bother me at all...
Most of the time i don't use vodafone live.
Just for mobile banking via the Rabobank,this can only by using Vodafone Live(proxy)

Can't you just do it directly (without proxy) on the Rabobank website?
No,that's not possible only via Vodafone Live.
Cause Vodafone Live works with proxy settings for security reasons i think.
Nobody else an idea how i can solve this issue?
Thanks
Opera proxy
Better late than never.
My idea is to disable the standard proxy settings for your connection and setting up a proxy in opera.
So that outlook keeps on working with gmail and you still can use vodafone live etc.
Just tried it and it works for me.
I have a HTC HD2 unit and after setting up my email details it fails to recognise that I am connected via wi-fi at home and work. when ever I try to send/receive it tells me that there is no service. This problem has only started after updating the ROM to 1.72.841.0 (this is the Telstra version as I am in Australia). Telstra have an agreement with HTC to have a number of default settings installed which direct you to use their pay for services. I have been able to bypass most of these.
I have asked my phone service provider to block data services so that my only connection to the internet is via wi-fi at home and work.
I have tried to go to the settings/advanced and set the network to My ISP but still have no result.
I am able to send and receive emails on my work email account as I have installed the certificate required.
Can anyone give me some idea as to how to fix this problem?
I have found a way to resolve my issue
Hello,
I need to setup proxy for my Sensation, but nothing is working.
I've tryed many apps like ProxyDroid, Auto Proxy, etc.
When I'm setting proxy and trying to open browser (for ex. google.com) it's says 'site is unavailable' = no one app is working when proxy is set
Also tryed proxy options in wifi settings (Wifi is working then without proxy...)
Phone is rooted.
I don't have any ideas anymore, please help.
*bump* .
Sorry, but I don't believe that nobody know anything about this case...
