ok sorry if this is really stupid but i am having problems with MMS - no please dont tut and hit the next post :roll: :lol:
problem - not working - "Dialed:Cannot connect for an unknown reason" - helpful!
things tried :
hard reset (yes left it to load all the O2 junk) still not working
O2_UK.cab from my Himalaya (which works fine on XDAII) downloaded from here ages ago.....no joy there either - do i need a different .cab?
manual settings from O2 website...nope!
anything daft that i have missed? i got this for the wife and its making me look silly :?
why couldnt she just get an XDAII!!! i can get that to work
from what i have read on here by reloading all the O2 rubbish after a hard reset it should have set up the GPRS and MMS but as it hasnt i am wondering if i may have been unlucky and got a corrupted extrom from new? i think it unlikely but O2 havnt registered the IMIE yet for me to be able to download the OS from their website or i would try reloading it.
please tell me i am missing something stupid or i will have to admit defeat and take it back to the shop! :roll:
ohh should add this is an O2 branded XDA mini with WM 2005, i never got MMS to work with WM5 on my XDAII but i figured as this was an official release that MMS "should" work out the box.....was i wrong? do i need to use a work around?
thanks for any help
hmm no replies?
surely someone else has had problems and if not then that would be of help to know :roll:
if there is anyone out there with an o2 uk mini that can confirm that the default from a hard reset gives working MMS with no other user changes then i will at least know that i have a faulty unit/ROM
would be apreciated
Sounds weird, if you have installed all the O2 cabs after a hard reset and it is still not working. In Start-Settings-Connections if you click on Manage existing connections for My Work do you see o2 Active? If that is there, and the settings are present in MMS settings on Pocket Outlook, it should be sending. If not, have you tried reflashing with the launch ROM from the my-xda.com website? It's exactly the same ROM as should be one, but maybe your Extended ROM is misisng something? Sorry I can't be more help, hope you get it sorted.

thanks, yes its a wierd one all right :evil:
all the settings are there and yes i have reloaded all the O2 active junk from a hard reset.
unfortunately as i only bought the phone yesterday the IMIE isn't yet registered with O2 so a cant download the ROM yet :roll:
oh well
thanks for the info at least i can be fairly sure that there is a issue with the device/ROM and its not just me being a plonker! :lol:
If you want the ROM you can get it without entering an IMEI

ok here is the update - and the solution :lol:
1st i got the rom using the IMIE from my phone (they only check the IMIE matches the phone no. - not that it is the correct model)
re flashed the ROM - still no MMS :twisted:
thought for a minute then swapped SIM's and guess what, the plonkers at O2 have for some reason disabled MMS/Data on my wifes SIM!
so for anyone who gets a similar issue call your service provider and make sure the data service has been enabled! - though you might have expected them to have checked that when i first called them with MMS problems yesterday :evil:
hope this might help someone in the future

D'oh! Oh well at least you know it's not your phone and its easily solved.
well i can't believe they (O2) did this, i went through all this when i took out the contract a year ago so i know it was working before the upgrade so they actually disabled this when i upgraded!
its not like you might wand a data service with a device like the wizzard, is it :roll:
Hi Folks,
Just upgraded from an O2 XdA IIs to an iMate JasJar.. Niiiice piece of kit I did the upgrade so I could connect to 3, as they were the only provider that I could find that would let me do a data bundle on my mobile plan (I'm out of the office a lot of the time, so like to get my email via gprs). Anyhoo, everything's working great, except I can't seem to get the right settings for MMS.
So I'm hoping someone here has a universal on 3 here in .au and has MMS working, and can tell me what config they're using..
Thanks,
Damien
G'day Rendrag,
I have seen alot of people having problems with getting 3 MMS to work on their non sold 3 phones, have you checked out the settings here that some people have posted? http://www.aussie3g.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=14311&highlight=3services
I will soon to be investigating this once my m5000 arrives. Apparently everything else works fine on the 3 network.
Cheers

Hi Ahrjay,
Those are the settings I'm using, but sending MMS's just doesn't work.. I've seen plenty of people on aussie3g.com saying they can't get MMS working but there's been no posts about it since february, so I thought I'd post over here incase someone knew
Regards,
Damien
I thought i made a post in here last nite about my problems too, but i dunno what happened, sufficed to say, i like to consider that i have fairly good know how, when it comes to this sort of stuff, and i can't work out, how to send an mms for the life of me...
and i've tried, everything i can think of... i just can get it to work, i hope someone out there can help us out..
FWIW I have been trying for months as well.
I even tried ringing the help number, but the're useless. They ask what phone you have and when its not one of the "three" phones they have no idea what to do.
Perhaps bumping this up to the front page might help.
Jon
Anyone have any success yet????
Not me.. I even went to the trouble of making a bit of a scene at the hutchinson stand at CeBIT the other month over their MMS not working and them not giving a stuff, but the tech guys all ran for cover, and left the sales guys going 'ummm'.

Grr... what the hell is going on?
Surely the phone, is capable of doing it all and then some...
So I have to ask, where is the problem lying? Is it in some sort of I.D. being rejected? Connection settings? Or some sort of software malfunction?
To my understanding, Vodaphone have recently started selling these phones, so i would guess, that they're service is compatiable in every way with the jasjar????

Hmm, might be worth a trip down to the local vodaphone store and have a look at what settings they use, and see if they're anything like what we're trying to use on three?

Hmm... well the settings would be different, as they will all be different server...
I think, it's an I.D. thing personally. I think the JasJar is sending some infomation and 3 is just rejecting the whole mms. But i could be way off, i don't know.
What i'm really curious about, is how vodaphone would support their content service, as i can't think of any way to play RTSP streams on a WM5 device. Which is pretty much how all the content on 3 is streamed, making it in-accessible for all of us with Universal's, and all future WM5 devices....
I think this is a universal 3 network issue for the Universal :shock:
I think it would be good if we discuss this all in one universal "3" thread .....I think this thread is a good one to discuss it in because there are people from other countries on the 3 network also trying to sort out similar issues and there know how is also very helpful.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=51646
I've been trying since MAR and no avail. I can "send" MMS to myself and it'll come (so I get the subject header) but when I try to download the actual content it gives some stupid error (the same happens when ppl MMS me - get the header but no content)
Three network
Hi all,
Everyone around the world seem to be having the same issues with the Three network.
I think it might be a good idea if with consolidate all the Three network discussion to one thread. Then maybe if we combine efforts we will find the solutions.
This is the thread I think would be good to move all the discussion to as it already has some good stuff in there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=51646
I hope you think its a good idea too....and we see you in there.
well i lent my friend my mda while i was in class and i guess he was trying to get onto the internet, he accidentally deleted the data connection. when he meant to tap connect.
How do i get it back? all help is appreciated
it is a t-mobile data connection. thanks
anyone??? i really need help with this i have no clue as to how to get it back
Just call your phone provider and they will talk you through adding it again.
so thats the only possible way to get back my connection???
What provider? Cingular or T-Mobile?
im with t-mobile i really want this connection back. im paying for the total internet package and cant use it.
i would call but the account is not under my name. so when i call i dont really remember the personal info such as ss# etc.
Hopefully your account is legal as it doesn't sound normal that you would have a paying account, but no access to customer service (as you have to know who's name it is under i would presume).
I'll help this time, but this really sounds like your using a hot phone...
If you're using T-Mobile US then follow the instructions here: http://tmobileusotw.wdsglobal.com/
oh. nahh im using a good phone, its not a hot phone, its jus that my mother put it under her name for me but me and her had a major argument AFTER the connection was deleted and i didnt really wanna ask her anything.
trust me the phone aint stolen.
thanks for the link though

Well don't be so quick to assume. T-Mobile will ask for ssn or security question. You can't do anything even if you have the contractor's name. But support will give the link without needing any of that.

I was assuming simply because it would seem strange to me that he would have an active phone and not know the person's information who's it is under. If he did i would assume calling them up and saying "Hey i need you to be on the line while i call T-Mobile" wouldn't be unrealistic. His reason is one i can understand, but that wasn't given prior to my response and was why i reasoned that way.
Sorry if i offended anyone.
Did the link fix your problem?
There is a serious problem with the T-mobile mda compact 2 and that is that it says in the settings that network cards can be used to get WI-FI as it desnt have it already but ther have been numbers of peple asking "why doesnt it work" People are continually asking why T-mobile has stpped it from working and why can anybody help!
Please there are numbers of people with this problem who would be very gratefull to know.
What the HEck...This is no way of posting your problem..
Why not Im i a seriously bad mood because of the amount of people who have posted asking this question and nobody ever answers.

First off, commas and periods are your friend. The search feature here and google can be better friends. I will take a stab and answer your run on sentence. Cell phone carriers often remove features from phones when theyy receive them. But because those features have been removed, doesnt mean it doesnt work, (in most cases). Maybe flashing a cooked rom, doing a registry tweak, or installing a cab or two may help you.
Again, use the search feature, do a little more research, have lots of patient, rephrase and post your question(s) in the appropriate forum. Doing this will significantly decrease the chances of you getting flamed, and improve your chances of getting the help you want. Good luck.
well, give it a try and hack it on your own ?! huuu ? how about that !
normally when nobody posts a reply it means that nobody knows the answer - or it was discussed so often and you did not try the search function.
so, be a part of the community and try finding it out on your own and share it with all of us .
Not important to me!
LOL!!
HOW ROOD!!!!
Man how you word things means everything. How do you think that your going to get some help when you post stupid titles like this come on. We are all here to try to help each other out. What just because you say your mad means that someone is going to help you NOT!!! Man next time try asking you will get alot farther. You have to be a young kid or something with no home training. Lol
Sorry to seem "rood" but I have been researching and all i see is loads of people ,like me, who ask the question in a normal manner and get no response.
Loads of dead Threads thats what i find when i research and give it patience.
I posted this Thread as a last attempt of many from many people.
Sorry for being "rood" but I was very annoyed
also "TheChampJT" wtf!
You said "Not important to me!" and your signature says willing to help
Why would I help you when you cant be bothered.
I could easily have helped with your Samsung SCH-i760 ROM problems but Im not going to now ,your problem!

Ok, trying to understand your issue:
You want to use your network card as an Wifi access point?
- Your network card is only able to get GPRS or EDGE connection and that is dependent of your network provider (AT&T, T-Mobile, etc). If this is what you want, probably your network settings are wrong. You can try and use Network Wizard, which allows you to autoconfigure your device to connect to your network provider facilities.
- Wifi is acquired by a different piece of hardware, and you can't get Wifi where there isn't any access point that allows you to connect to.
Now about the way you presented your problem on the forum: sure, we all get frustrated not to have our questions answered. That can mean the following:
1 - No one understood exactly what is your problem.
2 - Your problem is something new and no one has it.
3 - You could try and use the search engine named Google in an effective way in order to find exactly what you are looking for. I've seen dozens of students searching using the wrong keywords or even trying to search using sentences. Keep it short and keyword based. Combine them with "word word word" or word+word+word.
I guess you got what you wanted: attention. Now all you need is the answer.
IMPORTANT!
y'know, some of you guys on here are absolute stars at being able to remain patient and helpful.
i salute you for this trait. much respect.
peace.
Read here for info about Charmer - MDA Compact II - no wifi hardware included in this device
And if you read Charmer wiki you will find out following
Missing features
WiFi
WiFi can be done via a WiFi-SDIO card (refer later section for instructions)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and
Wireless / WiFi
Not all WiFi-SDIO cards are compatible with Charmer. Few SanDisk WiFi-SDIO cards have been confirmed to work with Charmer with extra drivers. Refere to the thread for drivers and instructions (related thread)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Network Cards ia part of WM networking framework which is responsible for all the conections like WIFI (it is unavailable for Charmer), GPRS(EDGE and other cellular data connections), Modem connections, Serial Connections and few more - it is the same for all devices because the OS is the same. The OS may support wifi but this option is dependable from hardware and drivers, so if you do not have WIFI hardware and proper driver for it this functionality will remain disabled by the OS
I hope i answered your question

Ummm.......ok! No worries here then, but hey don't go crazy on me, just letting you know. Enjoy your day !
whaaaa?
I have no idea what you're even trying to say?
Well, now that you had some attention and some answers, could you please edit the tread title to something more descriptive like "T-Mobile MDA Compact 2 - enabling WiFi" so that other users searching the forum can actually find it? Not to mention that it does seem a bit rude way to request help and doesn't look too good in the forums...
not the best of ways to ask for help
Sorry
Sorry about my thread, i will get rid of it as soon as i feel most people affected have got this message.
Hi Everyone,
Please may you help, I am using a HTC HD2 phone running Windows Mobile 6.5
I have recently changed over to TalkMobile UK on pay as you go.
I have managed to set-up the GPRS settings no problem using the My ISP setting, but I cannot for the life of me get the MMS to work, and this is after help from the instore CPW staff, customer support at talkmobile on email and on the phone.
I have asked the automated system to send the settings, but this does not work, and confirmed by the customer services.
I think the problem lays somewhere in the My Work Network connection, particularly in the proxy settings.
I would be very grateful if someone could confirm what should go in this connection and in the MMS Settings to check where I am going wrong.
My last hope to get this sorted, or im going back to Tescomobile!
Thanks very much!
