EDIT:
Well, WhatsApp worked for 2 days only, it was just a coincidence, now messages are delayed. At least the other apps work.
-----------------------------------
Hey guys, I discovered something interesting.
As I said several times in other posts, I had sync problems only with some apps. This, the fact that some people have no issues and the fact that our phone is not the only one with this problem (do a quick search) made me think that probably it's not a problem with the phone (at least not only), but with the mobile carrier (as someone already said).
Anyway yesterday I remembered that my mobile carrier provides different APNs and I also remembered that WhatsApp stopped working properly after I changed it (at that time I didn't notice this relation, I don't use WhatsApp so much). As soon as I reverted back to the orginal APN, WhatsApp started to work properly (Gmail takes 2/3 minutes and more to notify me).
My suggestion is to compare your current APN with the one you used in Froyo, because I noticed that the file /system/etc/apns-conf.xml changed from Froyo.
I don't know if the problem is the APN only, but in my case changing it did something (I hope this is not a coincidence, I did some tests, but I think I need more time to be sure).
For those interested, my mobile carrier iS TIM (Italy):
ibox.tim.it = BAD (default in CM 7)
wap.tim.it = GOOD (default in stock)
I Hope this helps.
Hi
I made some tweaks on APN settings without solution... seems to be a kernel issue

I have tried to mess around with 6.1 lately and for some reason I am not able to figure this out.....
I get everything working, for what I think but then I keep having problems with the MMS. I will send my wife a test message and it takes over 3 hours to get to her. When I am running WM6 with radio 1.27.14.09 it works fine, takes less then 2 minutes to get to her phone.
Now before you start grilling me, I have done a google search. I have found problems such as
1. unable to send at all - not my problem
2. MMS not working - not my problem again (works just really slow)
3. Use this cab, use that cab, I have tried them all they don't change the issue
4. Make sure your going through MEdiaNet - I am
So what I am asking, is anyone else experiencing this problem???? The only thing I have looked into is it possibly an arcsoft issue???
I don't know if this will help, but I'm finding that with the 6.1 roms on AT&T that if you allow the Network Configurator to run, various things don't seem to work quite right. I was having issues with WeatherPanel not working on the AT&T network. I've now flashed 3 different 6.1 roms in the last couple of days and did not allow the network config to setup the AT&T settings, and then disabled it (when the next screen came up). After doing this, I then ran the remove hidden proxy cab and the WAP/MMS setup cab and then did a soft reset. Now MMS works fine (I never had the 3 hour delay you described, but I did have other issues with MMS on some of the roms) and WeatherPanel also now works (haven't had a problem with it in over 24 hours where before it might or might not work, then would stop working a few hours later).
Like I said, may not help your situation, but something to consider and try.
NOTE: The method I just laid out will NOT set up isp.cingular. Only Cingular GPRS and MEdiaNet. This is how I used to always run my Wizard and dumped the $40 per month PDA Connect plan for the $20 per month Unlimited MEdiaNet.
I could hug you!!!! Oh my god, do you feel my love...do you feel me humping your leg!!!!!! It worked,,,,absolutely amazing....Thank you!!!!
Glad it worked for you, but wow, not sure about the extent of the emotion you are sending in my direction... LOL
So for future people that hit this, did you remove the other settings, just install these two cabs, hard reset and follow my above directions, or what? Just curious myself as I'd like to get to the bottom of what goes wrong (or is missed) with the Network Configuator process for AT&T.
To tell you the truth, it stopped working later that night!! I had Dutty's ROM installed , hard reseted , installed the two cabs and it worked. Then I tried sending another pic to make sure it worked about 10 minutes later.... I took 5 hours to get to my wifes phone....
It has to do something with the radio's. I tried a bunch and none work. I'll just wait till the Official 6.1 comes out for ATT and look at the settings.....
Thanks anyways!!!
if your phone said message sent then it arrived 3 hours later to the recipient then its a network problem not really to do with your phone but just incase look at other radios.

Looks like this just changes some TCP parameters and such. Is that correct? So you would use this in addition to the WAP MMS cab I posted earlier I assume.

It changes some TCP parameters and puts in the IP header compression and the DNS servers.
I really do not know what the problem is.... those didn't work either. It honestly might be something in my area, South Florida. I tried with the new radio, those files and vice versa. I am dumfounded.
As soon as I flashed back to 6.0 and used the 1.27 radio it sends immediately. It must have something to do with the radio and my area.
I appreciate all the assistance
I have the same problem. I received my tytn II 2 days ago. Previously I used the se K800i. With the k800i, there was never a problem when sending sms messages. Always very fast to send and receive but now on my kaiser, it takes a long time before my messages are received or till I receive an sms message.
Still on the stock rom version 1.56.404.6
radio: 1.27.12.32
Windows mobile 6 professional.
Hmm I just got back to Kyoto from a trip to New Zealand and found that my phone will no longer connect with the opensoftbank connection. THE PHONE CAN BE USED AS NORMAL. Anyway, when connecting to the internet, I get the following error:
"Dialed : open.softbank.ne.jp. Cannot connect for an unknown reason"
Neither installing of the connection .cab or the wifiwake method , with the correct wifiwake, nor even putting the password in by hand, worked. I have tried several different roms. Of course, I did the usual and checked the connection to make sure password was actually inputed, etc. Anyway, I am sure I know what I am doing since I have been doing this since the Hermes; and remember, the think worked before leaving Japan.
So, I thought perhaps I had a phone problem. Well it appears not. Installing the original softbank rom works! Anybody else had any similar issues of late? Strange indeed.
UPDATE: On the original Japanese ROM I deleted the original settings (which are hidden by the way) and manually put the opensoftbank settings in and all still worked. Now, get this: I installed jmckeejr's Chrome 23037_Beta2 and even put in the autosettings (the vodafone [email protected]) just to see if it would let me connect... it did not. SO, neither the old vodafone nor the softbank open settings appear to work. Damn, makes me think softbank have clamped down on us, somehow... Anyone got any good ideas, please let me know.
Softbank seems to have stopped service to my phone this morning as well. It was fine yesteday, I've been paying my bills and using the data connection very modestly.
For me, however, it's not only the data connection that won't work anymore but I can't even make phone calls. I reinstalled the 6.1 official Softbank rom and this didn't help the problem. Something strange is going on here.
Hi Jonathan. I hope you could solve your problem. I solved mine by installing the latest NRGZ28 EnergyRom Warhawk. It worked fine. It seems that some of the later roms than this (released around end of Aug/beginning of Sep) do not work with softbank's connection settings.
I will do a little more poking around to see if I can find out any more information as to what may be causing the problem, as at the moment it is all a mystery to me. Cheers.
Hello All,
I hope that someone can help me because I have a strange problem.
I have just bought a LG GW910 phone. The phone seems to work fine (calls, web-surfing, wifi etc) but if I am using my data connection (NOT WIFI) I cannot connect to any HTTPS sites. This also means that I cannot sync my phone with my exchange server across my data connection.
I have testes if across WIFI and it works fine.
I have also tested it by turning off the SSL (and making the necessary mod on the server of course) and then it also works fine, but I don't want to leave it sending my password in cleartext.
Can anyone help? Is this a bug in WP7 or should I send my phone back.
I would be very grateful if people could answer asap so that I can arrange to send this phone back if necessary.
Thanks.
nebc100
given that you're the first to report it i might suggest speaking with your carrier about it?
Thanks for the comment! I would have thought the same thing if everything had not been working perfectly with my Touch Pro 2.
I cannot explain it, but I have managed to solve the problem.
I had tried resetting the phone and it hadn't helped.
I then tried (just to see how well it worked) doing a remote wipe of the phone (I had temporarily configured by exchange server not to require SSL). I then pannicked for about 40 minutes while my phone sat there with the LG logo and not starting.
FINALLY (YES... it takes AGES!!!) it started, and I configured it EXACTLY the same way as before, and now it works.
I honestly cannot explain it!
If anyone can come up with an explanation, I would LOVE to know.
Nick
well good to see you got it solved.
if i may: where did you acquire an LG GW910. is that not a developer phone? as in, not in the market? (it was actually the one WP7 that enchanted me the most.)
Hello,
I bought the device on ebay for €200. The price was certainly interesting!!
Sadly however, the problem that I was having yesterday has started again!! It is very strange!! It worked perfectly for approx 2 hours, and then at 00:40 this morning, it stopped. Now, again, I cannot access any form of https site (for exemple: www.live.com won't work as it directs me to an https site.) if I use the data signal. If I use WIFI it works fine!!
I am just trying another remote wipe of the phone to see if this solves the problem again.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Bad memory chip????
WORKING!!!!!!!
Hello All,
Problem officially solved now... phone been running fine since Saturday Morning.
It seems that the problem was partially due to my service provider, and partially due to a mistake that I made.
I connect through Orange Luxembourg (Formerly VOX). They have 3 APNs: vox.lu (their old APN that still worked perfectly with my Touch Pro 2), iphone3g.lu (which they implemented when they got the iphone) and then one that I have never used before: orange.lu
I had tried vox.lu and iphone3g.lu and they both worked fine for HTTP, but not for anything secured (HTTPS, SSL etc).
On Saturday morning, I suddenly remembered that there was the orange.lu APN and I tried it. The phone has been working perfectly since then!!
I can't explain why this APN works and the others don't, but I am not going to complain. It is now working fine, and to be honest, I am very happy with WP7. OK... it has some missing functionality, but I am sure the MS will sort out some of these issues given time.
Dear All,
it is about a month I am happly using Mildwild 4.3 (Oxy). Quick,no memory hangry and battery last quite enough not to bring my charger along side.
But...there is always a but, I have a small list of issues/questions I would like you to have a look at and maybe give me some heads up:
(listed in order of importance ..for me)
1) Data connection - I go to Wireless & Network settings --> Mobile Networks -- > Data enable I select it. Sometime the effect is the desired one: my data conntection switchs on and I am on the network. Unfortunately 8 times out 10 nothing happen. The workarounds I have found are the following a) Switch to 2G -> 3G (or the other way around). b) go Airplane mode and then go back to normal. c) Let the gsm reconnect on the GSM network
Any idea what s happening? Is it a known bug?
2) Incoming call - The main reason why I migrate from MildWild 5.0 CM to Mildwild 4.3 Oxy is because on incoming call I had a delay in the conversation, basicaly the first 2 seconds were mute. With this rom looks like the 2 seconds freeze period have migrated to the screen. Basically on incoming call for the first 1 or 2 seconds my screen stays black and I cannot neither answer nor hang up. Really annoying expecially if I forgot to put it on silent and I find myself in a middle of a meeting. What I really miss from the original HTC desire OS is the flip functionaly capable to mute the phone flipping it face down.
3) New release - Does anyone knows when a new release will be available? (4.4??...)
Well that s all my androians. I am looking forward to receive your feedback
Ciao
Stefano
Hey folks! Anyone has suggestion (expecially for my point 1) ??

I've seen behaviour a bit like this with MW 4.3, I think it was because it didn't have the right APN settings for my network. I looked up the right settings and created two new APNs, and my phone is behaving better now.
It seems like MW 4.3 has a limited range of network settings, eg. here in Germany it lists the main networks but not all the MVNOs (resellers).

4.4 is out this week: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353861
However it won't boot on my Desire (PVT4), despite a full factory-reset and wipe. It just sits there on the boot screen until the battery runs out, so I'm back on 4.3 for now. And I'm caught in the "you have't posted 10 times yet so you can't post in the main thread" trap, so I can't report it in the most obvious place.
Cheers m'dears,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
I could not resolve the connection problem. my parameter are ok. I made few more identical APN (just to give it a try) but with no benefit.
On the other hand I have just downloaded the 4.4 installed on top of the 4.3 (no wipe) and apparently it s working fine (could not no major improvement so far)
Cheers
Stefano

Thanks, maybe I'll try 4.4 on my other Desire (a PVT1, I think) just to see if it works there.
This wouldn't be the first time I've had odd behaviour from the PVT4, by the way - its GPS wouldn't work under Mildwild-CM5, whereas earlier models were fine.

Hi folks
I have a Nexus S (i9020a). It has stock 4.1.2 Jelly bean from Google (downloaded the stock image and flashed it). It worked fine for over a month.
Suddenly few days back this device got a problem. When I dial any number I can't hear any dialing sounds and even after the call has connected I can't hear the opposite person and the opposite person also can't hear me (The phone still shows as 'Dialing' though it's already connected). The same is true when I answer any call. Both parties can't hear anything.
This is solved by rebooting the phone for the first phone call only. After I reboot, the 1st phone call works fine, then this problem persists for any calls I make/receive until I reboot the phone again.
I tried flashing a different radio but this problem is still there. I tried my sim card on a different phone and it works fine, so the problem is not that too. My 3G data works just fine.
I need this phone for the next few days/weeks (hopefully not months) before my Nexus 4 gets delivered :laugh:
Thanks..
Edit: Modified the title; Probably gave the wrong meaning that the problem is solved.
<bump> Modified the title. Earlier title gave an impression that the problem is solved whereas I still have a problem.
Have you installed any apps which could somehow affect the dialler?
Unless someone else can give you a different advice, I can't think of any other option than do a full wipe and reflash.
I haven't installed any such apps.
Also, I already did a full wipe and flashed the stock image again. The problem is still there.
Don't know what else you could try, sorry mate - hope someone else can help you sort it out!
Thanks for trying. I think I will go to some hardware shop and see if they can figure out..
Try using a headset for making phone calls so that we can identify if it's really the hardware's problem.

I had similar problem when RAM running out. Usually a reboot fix the problem for a bit.
What I did:
1. With Titanium Backup Pro, froze unused RAM hogging system apps, like Google+, Google play magazine,etc
2. Froze or uninstall Facebook, Word with Friends, etc which are resident and hog RAMs .
3. Install marmite kernel, free up more usable RAMs.
Hope it helps you too.

I tried this too but doesn't work...
Try any custom ROM instead of stock ROM and a different kernel too. There could be chances that you've flashed the wrong ROM / radio too.
Sent from my Nexus S
Problem solved.
I went to a hardware store today. The guy said that it's a problem with the 3G service of my carrier (Vodafone India). The moment I enabled the '2G only' option in the Mobile networks settings area, this problem was gone. The technician said that this issue is affecting some people randomly. He said that since 3G service was launched just last year, the networks are not yet capable of handling all kinds of devices (he claims that the bug is so erratic that another Nexus S i9020a may work just fine with the very same bootloader/radio/rom which doesn't make any sense). When I said that 3G service was working fine before, he said that most probably my carrier changed some settings on their side which is causing this issue for me.
I have tried this for 6-8 hours now, making a lot of phone calls and it seems that the issue is gone. It saddens me that I am off 3G for now but at least my phone calls and basic EDGE internet works fine. I will have to work with Vodafone to solve this or simply wait for my new phone (Nexus 4) and hope it won't have the same problem..
