First suggestion: run Connection Setup app (from HTC Apps section in the Marketplace). If needed, you can install it using a PC.
Second suggestion: Try connecting over WiFi instead of cellular data; do you see the same weirdness?
Third suggestion: Call your operator (Simple Mobile) and ask them for help.
WiFi works just fine,when I call provider they say same things that I already did it,and about connection set up I don't have that app in HTC titan also I can't find it in market place fuf what next?

It should be in the HTC section of the market. otherwise search for "HTC" in marketplace. It has to be there. I don't know where you are, but here (germany) the apn for t-mobile internet is "internet.t-mobile". Go to T-mobile website there should be a configurator/help where they can send you a configuration sms
yes i solve problem

How did you fix it?
This is how I fixed it
1. Connect to WiFi and make sure you have internet connection
2. Go to market and select HTC app. Sign in or create your window live account, select Connection Setup application and install it
3. Go to settings...cellular...turn data connection off
4. If you have a previous apn settings , go to edit and delete it.
5. Open connection set up application, select manuao set up at the bottom rigth pop out menu. Select carrier window and choose Simple Mobile. Press check mark. Press done when it finish it. Exit to home
6. Power off the phone and reboot.
7. After reboot go to wifi and turn it off
8. Go to settings...cellular...and enable data connection
Enjoy edge data connection

I dont have a data plan for my SP5m so my provider defaults any data access at a high "per KB" rate. Is there a way to prevent all GRPS/EDGE usage ? Ideally, I'd like to just be able to turn GPRS/EDGE "off".
the only thought I've had thus far is to use some "fake" settings so any attempt to use GPRS/EDGE would simply fail to connect.
Is there a solution or is my "fake" idea the way to go ? If I use the "fake" solution, what setting(s) do I need to change ?
I think all you have to do is delete the connection. Click the start menu then settings then connections and connections again. Then click on manage existing connections. Then take your stylus and hold it down on the connection name, for example for me it is tmobile, until a pop up box comes saying delete and connect. Tap on delete and your gprs settings are gone and you cannot connect.
If you want to keep your settings, maybe you can just create a new connection with fake settings and have that chosen as your connection when you dont want to use your providers GPRS.
The settings to change would be the number to dial, for me it is internet2.voicestream.com.
Goto Settings/Connections
Choose Connections, got to Advanced tab.
In "Programsthat automatically connect to internet should connect using:"
choose "My ISP". Or create new one with empty parameters..
Have fun....
deleted connection
Thanks for the easy solution (I like those types). I went ahead and deleted the GPRS connection. Things are behaving just the way I wanted !

stylus???
hmmm...I think SP5m does not have touch screen.
BTW: window mobile and window mobile smartphone are totally different OS.

This is not an easy solution to your request, but I just upgraded my QTEK 8300 to the latest Imate SP5M ROM and noticed that under the COMM Manager one can "Stop Data Services" by moving the joy stick to the icon or hitting number "5". It immediately stops the Data Flow (at least the G) disappears in the header. Not sure it is really stopping Data because when I go to WiFi and open IE, the G reappears. Might be due to the way I have my Cingular connections set up. I'll experiement some more and re-post later. I like the new ROM, snappier, the radio is much better in that I get a much better signal where I'm at.
Here's how you disable GPRS/EDGE Auto connect!!
Start > Settings > Connections > Manage my connections > Then just point to the list item and hold down until the menu pop up and select delete. Do it to all the items there such as T-Mobile / AT&T or Winmodem..etc... after you deleted everything and you go back to the connections page you will see "Add a new modem connection" under My ISP. Do not delete anything under "My Work Network"... Hope this help.
You can use Modaco NoData to disable GPRS/EDGE =D
Have a nice day
I have the Fuze version on at&t network. I've disabled 3G on AT&T's side so there is no way to connect through there.
Nevertheless, my phone ALWAYS tries to connect to the 3G network and i've disabled 3G connections using Nodata.cab, advancedconfig, diamondtweaks.
Still, the warning signs always come up:
"there is a problem connecting to the gprs service in your registered home network warning"
and this occurs, when I turn on the phone and many other times.
Is there a way to disable this warning? I know I cant connect, its because i disabled it!!!!
anyone? it comes up like 50x a day andi have to click OK to make it go away every single time
Have you unchecked the auto update setting for the weather program? Doing this worked for me.
did that, but didnt fix the problem. anything else that can be auto updating or trying to contact the 3G network?
Go to start -- settings -- connections -- connections --advanced -- select network.
Here I think you can change the defaults so that when ever a program tries to use internet it will either use wifi (if available) or nothing....
I have blocked the wireless internet access on all my lines and this is how I solved the problem of getting gprs disconnect warnings.
Hope this helps.
Is it possible to just disable this warning?
I'm switching between my personal and business SIM cards quite often, and I have the data connection disabled on the business card, while on personal I have a data plan, so I want to be always-online.
I disabled aGPS and now i dont get the warning as much. (remember, i disabled GPRS from att side).
when i start my phone, i get 1 warning (i used to get 3?)
maybe i'm on the right track...
But the point is not to disable features so they don't auto-connect to the Internet.
The point is for the OS to try to onnect automatically, but when it failes - it doesn't have to scream that to your face every 5 minutes.
I'm bumping this thread cause I did the same thing and want to know how to disable the message as well.
still no answer to this
Translating from Dutch, so bear with me:
Go to Personal > phone > network settings and put the band on GSM.
Note that you won't be able to use the 3G + H data connections then.
my father has the same problem on his Diamond, need help!
bump, i have the same problem as well
any solutions?
i have a solution.
download > install > and run NOGPRS.cab aka No Data. that will shut it up. i just had the same problem and i did that and now i havnt gotten any... i think i might get like one if i turn the phone on and off and what not, but other then that its fine.
Solution to GPRS warning message
Go to settings > Connections > Connections > advanced > select networks >
now check both options to 'my work network'
click ok
and reboot
the irritating message will go away.
until you again reinstall the sim into your phone and it will automatically reconfigure the settings.
Just repeat the above process.
solution
1. Tap Start.
2. Tap Settings.
3. Tap Phone.
4. Tap the Network Tab.
5. Tap the Network Selection Drop down.
6. Tap Manual.
7. Tap the desired network.
8. Tap Ok.
I unlocked my sprint touch pro 2, flashed the edited radio posted here for the sprint version, and now I'm using it on T-Mobile
Phone/Txt works
Internet doesnt work
I have tried internet2.voicestream.com APN, wap.voicestream.com and epc.tmobile.com
It always says "can't connect for unknown reason"
I left the username and password fields clear
Any suggestions?
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.

This is what I did after I unlocked and flashed the edited radio (for the sprint version)
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
now you should be able to connect

Hi there,
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

Hi friends,
I recently bought a HTC HD2 locked to T Mobile in UK. I used a Rebel sim to unlock it and I am now using it on O2.
However I am not able to start internet, neither can I receive settings from O2.
The message that gets displayed tell the phone as pre set T Mobile internet settings and these cannot be changed
Is there anyway I can bypass these? Anyone else faced same thing before?
Thanks
Metal
can't you manually change the apn to that of o2?
Rudegar,
Thanks for your reply.
I cannot change the apn as all the settings are for T Mobile and I cant change them.
I tried using all the settings but no use. I can start the internet using Wifi but not through operator internet.
When I go to the new connection set up I am asked to select country (i select as UK), then I am asked to select operator and only option I have is T - Mobile.
Besides when I click on any browser, I get the T Mobile flash screen and then the browser starts.
I get an error as I am not a T Mobile customer. I have a link for settings there. When I click that it says -
This connection is pre configured. It cannot be modified.
Hello! I recently did the Smoked by Windows Phone challenge and got a free HTC Titan II. I've already unlocked it and have it working for Simple Mobile. The issue I'm having is with the internet on it. I have the exact same problem this guy was having:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1557165&highlight=simple+mobile
Except that when I run the connection setup, it says "Warning: The carrier doesn't exist in database. Please contact your carrier for connection setting and go to setting>cellular>edit APN for further configuration.
I also tried chaning my APN to "simple" And another APN for t-mobile that I had found, but still no luck. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.
I also have a Titan 2 trying to use it on Simple Mobile. Any help would be appreciated.
you will have to look up the apn for simple mobile and then enter it under settings>cellular>edit apn
interested in your results as I have a titan 2 aunlocked on tmobile, and I can only get EDGE data speeds
since simple mobile also uses tmobs spectrum then I imagine you will be in the same boat
