My MDA2 connect GPRS a second time only after a SoftReset... - Networking

WHY???????
If I connect to GPRS, then stop connection and then try to connect again it says: "cannot connect, make sure your phone is turned on etc....". I have to softreset again and it will connect, but only one time!!!
It is possible that I have to softreset eachtime I need to connect to gprs??????
Please help!!!
I have MDA2 with T-Mobile 1.60 ROM (english)
Thank you
update: instead of a Soft Reset I discovered that it's enough to Turn Flight mode ON and OFF immediately after. But of course there is a problem!!!

HELP!! - T-Mobile GPRS ONLY Works with a Soft Reset

Hi, I don't know what happend but my GPRS T-Mobile USA only works ONE TIME when I do a Soft Reset in my XDA, but If I disconnect and TRY the Conection again, the PPC only Showme the next Error:
"Dialed: internet2.voicestream.com
Cannot Connect for an unknown reason. ......"
If I try the internet3.voicestream.com or wap.voicestream.com, the Same Problem, Only I resolve the Problem with a Soft-Reset, but If disconect my device I CAN'T Connect again.
Any IDEA Friends????
Thanks.
Nothing YET????????? :?: :?: :?:
just for the sake of not letting your question go unanswered...
i experienced same problem once b4, its due to a program that
just dont work right on xda... never found out what it was. because i hard reset the device, and it worked fine after that!
its realy just easier to hard reset your device. and just restore files thru the activesync... restoring from a backup file will restore the problem as well.
i know im not much help, but if its bugging you THAT much, just hard rest
good luck
Hey RobertoLV my GPRS is working you fine, where are you?
GPRS Service
Sometimes T-Mobile has some problems with the net. So if it isn't connecting (Wap or....) call the customer-service to make a reset for your line. After the reset it is working great again.

GPRS-Connection Problems--> Solution!

Hello. Hope this helps.
I flashed my german MDA C with the imate ROM. Everything worked fine, except the connection with GPRS.
For example, when I connected to the Internet (I use the german Vodafone Provider), the connection was stable. But only for this one connection.
When I disconnected pressing the red button longer than 2 seconds, I never was able to get a new connection (Error Message, that no connection could be made by unknown causes). The only way to get out of this mess, was a Soft-Reset.
Another problem was: When receiving an MMS, there was no way to get a connection to the Internet after that (Error Message, that no connection could be made by unknown causes). Only way to get out of this, was to make another Soft-Reset.
I did the following:
Start-->Programs--> Wireless Modem-->Tools-->Options
I unchecked the "Preset GPRS Connection" (it was checked by default).
Since then.....everything works as it should
Ok, the GPRS Connection doesnt disconnect automatically after using it, but it re-connects after using the "Red-Button-Workaround".
Hope, I can help with this.

thanks man i will try it i have been having problems with my gprs connection..... another thing what is "Red-Button-Workaround" ?
Hi.
The Jam, can't disconnect automatically.
With the "workaround" I meant, that you can disconnect GPRS connection by pressing the red button about two seconds.
Hope this helps.

ahh thanks man... didn't know that... now i can get rid of gprs monitor...
cheers
Had the same problem, but mine mysteriously solved itself during this weekend. My wModem settings are the default.
hhmmm, yesterday...everything worked fine.
Today, I have the same error again. I post a pic of the error message. Someone any ideas ?
Greetings from Cologne,

i get the same damn message... and in addition to it... i the sginal bar goes like that ..... searching for network!!!!!!

That setting didn't help me, still getting error-message on my second connection-attempt without soft-resetting first. Using Vodafone Sweden.

The problem is not magician only, see this thread at Tekguru,
Restore default
I had the same problem, have made a hard reset and all he works well is always connected also after before the time. I have made the backup. Then I have modified the configurazini in order to try the wap and have modified the proxy after made the same error did not connect the second time. I have restored the backup and all it works. It must be something that wines modified in the registry when it modifies the logon formulations. I trying to understand what is the problem. Excused for my English.
Why start a new thread on this issue, when there's already a very active thread here, with what appears to be a solution?

How to stop ActiveSync from loading all the time??

Hi Forum,
it seems that ActiveSync starts every now and then in the background of my Qtek 9100 even though I didn't connect it to a PC. When checking with GSPocketMagic, ActiveSync is loaded quite often and I need to shut it down manually. Does anybody know why this happens and how I can "force" it to start ONLY when it's needed?? It seems that it's slowing down the device quite a lot...
Thanks in advance,
Andreas
I faced the same problem, till someone explained what was happening... For some reason, Active Sync is set standard to attempting to connect to an Exchange Server to sync OTA every 30 minutes. To get rid of this, do the following: Start Active Sync on your Wizard, then
Select menu -> select configure Server -> Enter just any name for server - select next - select advance - do not change drop down boxes and select next. Then unselect all check boxes - select finish. Then select menu again - select schedule - For both drop down boxes select Manually. Then push OK button. Now ActiveSync will not restart itself.
Thanks Koksie!

again, and some more things...
Hi, sorry that I have to come up with this again, but since I upgraded the ROM to version 2.18.7.7 (german ROM), this workaround doesn't do the job anymore- I don't know why, but the "select schedule" menu isn't highlighted anymore so that I can't click on it for making the last changes. Does anyone experience the same?? Oh, and another thing (maybe wrong topic)- with the new ROM came a new layouted connection manager, it seems that I can't end it with e.g. "magic button" anymore... any suggestions?? Also: this new connection manager doesn't allow to just click on the "active sync"-symbol to enter the active sync menue, any ideas?
greatings,
Andreas
Koksie, do you know how to connect the MDA device to the pc more than just once on a pc....if i re-connect my mda to the pc it stays on connecting and fails...i always have to reboot pc to get it connted??
Hi SBouri, had the same problem (which has been discussed here at least a zillion times- look for "Active sync-problem" etc.), after upgrading to the latest ROM this is solved for me. I used the Qtek-ROM, btw... All in all the thing runs much better, except the issues I stated above. Any suggestions about this???
alrite Trets, i have the same problem, active sync launches all the time on my phone....
i cant be bothered with upgrading rom etc cos i dont wanna take any chances of turning the phone into a brick...
well, I'd say if you'll stick to the right ROM version (in your case O2, isn't it?), there won't be much you could do wrong- and in case, you can still flash back to the old ROM. Search the forum, there are many good advices around there. But anyway, if you're using an older ROM version, try the suggestion posted above by Koksie, this worked for me until I updated the ROM. Good luck!
Oh, almost forgot - anybody out there who could help me with MY problem?!? (Nonono, don't say "let's sit down and talk about this"...)
Greetings,
Andreas
For the ActiveSync problem, try this: Do the same procedure as Koksie had described, but this time, connect your device to ActiveSync, then do the steps in ActiveSync on your PC. The Select Schedule option is still available on the PC side. I tried this after upgrading my ROM, and the problem went away as before.
I also have the problem with Comm Manager not ending after a close. Another situation related to Comm Manager I have encountered after the ROM upgrade, is that I am no longer able to stop WiFi once it has been enabled. Even after turning on Flight Mode, or connecting to ActiveSync, the Comm Manager still shows WiFi active! Only a soft restart will break the death-grip on WiFi.
Hopefully, someone will have some insight on these other issues.

Activesync Disconnects

Hi,
I have been suffering with a persistant Activesync connection problem. It usually connects and syncs fine the first time I boot my machine, but after around five minutes it almost always disconnects (though my Vario II continues to charge). Unplugging and replugging the USB cable does not work and the Activesync icon remains grey. Trying to start the connection manually either from the Vario II or from Activesync on the desktop also does not reconnect the device. In fact the only way to get it to connect again is to reboot my PC.
I'm using Activesync 4.2 downloaded from Microsoft this morning. I've tried deleting and recreating the partnerships, which does not help the issue. I've tried several USB cables which also do not resolve the issue, so I am now asking for your help.
If anyone has any insights into whaty might be happening I would appreciate your help...
Thanks,
Chris
I'm having the same problem, but in my case unplugging the cable from the device and plugging it again usually restarts the sync. Sometimes, however, I have to soft-reset to get it working again. Very annoying.
Hi Chris,
Ive had tons of issues with activesync on my works laptop..... I use a VPN and zonealarm... I used to have tno issues but since I got WM5 wich uses IP address's it always does the same thing as yours.. ive made sure the IP address is allowed in zone alarm.... my colleague also had this issue.. he managed to solve it by using a differnet USB port as his laptop has 3 one is on the side of the machine ... try using a different USB or disable zone alarm if you use it this could be causing the problem.
I sometimes get it to work if I have no VPN client running but as soon as I do use it the active sync stops.
Hope this may help you
James
I have exactly the same issue with my Vario II, never happened with my Vario and I have changed nothing other than my phone. Makes me think its summin to do with the harware possibly? Anyone else found a cure for this?
I Had the same problems, so I gave up on USB connection with active sync, I have 4 USB ports on my laptop and tried all, I now use bluetooth and works everytime.
There has always been problems with USB and actgive sync, so 4.2 was suppose to fix, but not for me.
I've got the same probelm on my Tytn. I've solve it to delete the Pocket Mechanic :shock: , I've done a S.R. and from now on the A.S. works correctly.
Ciao, Cesare
Had to use my old vario for a bit today, used activesync and it worked fine for the whole time I had it plugged in, got a new Vario II replacement today, got home and its exactly the same, would appear to be a mismatch between Vario II and activesync 4.2, can I connect by wifi?
Hello hmm the problem is if it uses direct or ip ,try go settings - connections - ( usb to pc ) and disable advance network funtctionality.
Hope that works
thanks
I had this problem too - I disabled advanced network capabilites in the "USB to PC" control panel under the Settings/Connections folder, and then Activsync stayed connected after that.
HTC TyTN 7/22/06 ROM
Just given that ago, Took me 5 attempts for the usb to pc connection settings screen to show up but then I realised it had to be plugged in to do it! Duh! What features do I loose by disabling ADVANCE NETWORK FUNCTIONALITY?
After the activesync working fine with my orange spv3100 for 4 weeks it suddenly refused to connect. I un-checked the "advanced functionality" box as suggested and it works again. Many thanks for the solution peeps.
I too would like to know what functions this deactivates.
Same problem, I've installed ActiveSync 4.5beta and now it stay connected, sometimes it disconnects but after restart of the phone it works again, one friend told me that the problem comes from the Activesync in the phone, so may be we have to look for the problem in the phone not in the PC
Activesync 4.2 problem
Hi all,
I too started having the same problems with Activesync 4.2 hanging my phone if left charging overnight. I decided to disable the advance network connection and that worked for a while. Now the phone wont sync AT ALL. It charges, but I can't do anything else. I reinstalled the Activesync 4.2, did a soft reset, off-on to the mobile, turn off-on my computer and still nothing. I will d/l Activesync 4.5 beta to see if that solves the problem, but it looks to be a problem with the Activesync in the mobile and not the one in the computer. I did the troubleshooting and it is detecting the USB connection but does not sync. I would really like to know if wireless sync can be achieved. Will post any fix if I find one. BTW my mobile is about a month and a half.

Sync problems with tytn
I've read through all the messages in this thread and wondered if someone could help me with some problems i've been having with syncing mine with a laptop. Often when I have the device plugged in when i boot up the laptop activesync won't start until i've disconnected the usb cable then reconnected it again-i never had this problem with the imate jam. My second problem arises when sometimes it says on the files section that there are un resolved items???? i then try to resolve the issue and a wizard comes up with add or remove buttons.afraid that i might remove something essential i tried the add button hoping this might resolve the issue-it didn't. i then gave up as nothing worked. after switching the laptop off and then syncing a day later there were no items to resolve so what exactly is happening. how can there be unresolved items one minute and nothing the next.also i hadn't done anything different on the tytn.if i select the add button on the window does it add a copy of the file highlighted and could this affect the operation of the device.Sorry if this seems a little confusing but i never had this problem with an xda exec or an imate jam.
please could someone help a non technical fifty something.

hi,

I agree, where is this option?
I'm running version 4.2 and along the top bar all I'm seeing is:
File - View - Tools - Help
Nothing like "Settings" and/or "Connections" in sight. Under "File" there is the "Connection Settings" option, but nowhere does it mention "Advanced Networking Functionality".......
Can someone explain this please?!
The "Advanced Networking Functionality" is on your phone, not on desktop's activesync.
On WM5, go to Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC and you will find the "Enable Advanced network functionality" option.

Every time I try that, I just get an error message saying: "Failed to disable RNDIS to use Serial".
Has anyone else seen this message? Happens regardless of whether the Vario II is connected by USB or not...
Thanks,
Chris
I'm still getting the RNDIS error, has anyone else come across this? Is there a solution?

No Data Connection after flashing!!

Hey guys, i have flashed to a few ROMs in the past and my phone would always give me the trouble of no data connection. My tmobile wing is hard spl and running currently on papa's black diamond. whenever i tried to go to the comm manager to activate the data connection, it just wont turn on while other buttons i have no problem turning on such as wlan and bluetooth.
i've also tried launching internet but it just says there's no data connection and ask me to go to settings. i still can make calls but just completely no data connections. i have also soft resetted it several time and no luck. =/
help would be great!
ps. i've looked up several other threads with the same problem, however, theres really nothing under connections except add new so it didnt help much.

I think you have to use the Network Wizard. If it is not in that rom, can install it using the cab, it's should be around this forum.
thanks live! but i'm not sure which network wizard cab file works and which doesnt.. so a friend helped me set it up manually. thanks though!!

What, have you heard that question before?
Ryan
yes my fone is having the same problem and now i cant flash to a new rom
i flashed for the first time yesterday, and had the same problem. just call tmobile and tell them somehow your data connection information has deleted, and they will run u through what to put in the fields. and don't forget to go to the network wizard, to make sure its on the right network.
Same problem except it WAS working (my gprs/edge) until I added my first wlan entry.. of my apartment's wifi which works. But after I was done using it i turned the wlan off from comm manager and expected to see the big E for edge and instead just see the two arrows with the little x under it. I can no longer connect to gprs/edge. If i open the internet explorer to view a page, it flashes a "G" with the arrows like it's trying to connect forever. At that point it will not even let me make or receive calls until I reboot the ppc. Network wizard won't fix it as I've already tried, twice... no change. My data connection for T-mobile is set up already under "connections tab" but it just doesn't work. My best guess is something has gone wrong in the registry... but as much as I've searched for this kind of problem I find nothing... just stuff how to fix wlan problems. btw, i'm on tmobile. Oh, it won't even activesync if my wlan is off now... I have to enable the wlan and let it connect to my home network... and THEN it will go through activesync without error. This is nuts, I already hard resetted once because of this and now it's the same story. Maybe it's just a prob with the opentouch 6.5 nofrills version that's just basic and let's the users add their own apps.
