GPRS connecting once, then needs reset - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

Hi,
I've got an Orange M500, upgraded with the Imate ROM 1.12.00WWE - ever since I upgraded the ROM, I can connect to my Orange GPRS service fine, however, if I disconnect then try to reconnect again, the connection fails. I have to turn on flight mode, then turn on the radio again in order to get GPRS access.
I've tried upgrading to Radio 1.13.00, but still no joy.
Any ideas?

Mine does that and I have the original ROM. A bit of a pain isn't it.

Here's the fix
This was originally posted by Peter for the imate JAM.
I just installed it and it's working like a charm.
1. Download the older version of caller-id from:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/CAB_Files/Caller ID/IA_CallerID_1.20_WWE.CAB
and transfer it over to your device. Any directory is Ok. I used ActiveSync to put it into the My Documents folder.
2. Remove the file IA_CD-Startup.exe from \Windows\Startup on your device.
3. Rename iacontacts.dll to something else (e.g. old-iacontacts.dll). This file is in the \Windows directory of your device but is hidden. However you can rename it using your PC. Open Windows explorer, and navigate to Mobile Device>My PocketPC>Windows.
4. Rename displayCID.dll to something else (e.g. old-displayCID.dll). Access it via your PC the same as for the previous step.
5. Soft reset
6. Run the CAB file on the device - just tap on it.
7. Soft reset.
That should do it.

I have the same GPRS problem too. However, the link you provided just asked for the password to access that ftp. Hey, acs540, do you know the password or do you have that CAB file? Thanks in advance.

usernameassword is xda:xda
The fix in this post seems to refer to caller id!?! I too get the gprs connection problem and have made it better with different roms but not found a sure-fire fix.
If anyone has a patch that fixes this, please post it!

GPRS now working
Hi,
Finally I tried, or at least halfway, After I removed the CallerID everyone is talking about my Qtek9090 now works flawless regarding GPRS.
This is very interesting that Caller ID software makes GPRS not working
Anyway, now I can start and stop GPRS several times, I have now toggled it 10 times without any problem.
Before I had to reset/toggle radio to make it reconnect after a disconnect.
Thank you all that has investigated this problem!
One last thing, Do you really need CallerID? :roll:

Lars

I don't use Caller_ID, but Photo Contacts Pro.
Did you also try to change GPRS slot (Class 8 or Class 10) in GPRS settings?

T-Mobile WM2003 accidentally installed onto O2 Xda

Hi everyone...I'm a newbie. Been reading all the pages but can't find answer to my q.
I installed T-Mobile ROM 4.01.16 downloaded from ROM kitchen. Unfortunately, now I cannot use the phone on my xda. It simply can't find my phone network. I tried to go into phone options but the phone hang. Otherwise, the rest works fine except it hangs sometimes.
I've tried to install new ROM, one for O2 xda but the error message below surfaced:
ERROR:Get Connection type - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host
error getting connection type.
Now I'm unable to install a new ROM. Even via SD card. Please help.
PS Have also tried using xdatools to unlock. I get the same error message ie the remote host forcibly closed connection
If it's a PW10A-Model that you have try entering Wallaby Bootloader and set GSM settings manually to 900/1800. Installing the 4.01.16 ROM sets the settings to 900/1900. Maybe this is your problem...
HTH
Stefan
Same problem over here
Hello,
I also installed the t-mobile on my o2 xda accidentally,
i already put it on european band frequency 900/1800 via the wallaby editor.
But still i'm not able to put back the o2 wme 2003 on it.
any solutions for this issue ?
thanks in advance,
thomas.
Flash your ROM via SD-Card....
Thanks so much Lumpi. Now my phone works but a different problem crops up. The device once turned off, will not turn on unless I soft reset it. Also, when it is off, the phone will not ring/vibrate when there's an incoming call. The green LED flashes as usual, indicating phone is working. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks inadvance.
another Q: can I use an MMC 256MB card to flash the rom or can i only use SD card?

Have you used KSE Truefax? I think that is the problem with not turning on the device....
I think you can also use a MMC Card. Never tried it myself, cause i only have SD-Cards...
Stefan
I've never use Truefax eventhough I have it on the device as I cooked it in the ROM. Any other ideas? Thanks
I had the same problem with 4.1.16 and KSE. It doesn't matter if you "use" it or not. Something about KSE being cooked intothe rom stops the device from operating correctly. To date you are the 5th person I know of to have that problem. Recook the same rom less KSE, reflash, and I can almost garauntee it will work.
thank you everyone....it is indeed the KSE Truefax that was the culprit. I've since invested in a card reader/writer and a 256MB MMC card and my phone works again!
PS special thx to lumpi

XDA II Mini & SD Wifi Card

When I put in my SD Wifi card into it, it doesn't seem to work. I know that my SD WiFi card is working as it works when I use it on a XDA II.
I went to check the Network Card on the Mini, it does not have the SDIO WLAN adapter in it. Is this normal? Does it mean that I have to install the adapter myself? Where can I find the adapter for XDA II Mini????
Thanks for your help as I am really new to this.

Sandisk Driver
I have an XDA Mini, downloaded and installed the latest driver from www.sandisk.com, have tried both the Wifi, and the combo wifi card, the wifi works well. The combo also works okay, although does have some lock ups, but IT DOES WORK!!!
I have been tyring to export ROM without doing any harm to device as only have it on load for a few more days, as want to bring the SDIO driver accross to my XDA2.
Have noticed the BT is having problems also, and would envisage an update is coming for this to bring up to new version that is on XDA IIs.

Thanks.
I shall try it when I get off work tonight.
Thanks again.
But one more question, does anyone know if the WLAN adapter should come with the XDA Mini?
You have to install the driver first .
After that no problemos
it work fine ( WifiFofum work very good !!!)

Hi,
the latest driver from sandisk that you have mentioned, is it this?
http://www.sandisk.com/download/Drivers/wifi/256mb-setup03.exe
or something better?
I'd tried this before in WM2003SE 2.06. No dice. If it works in Magician, I'm inclined to hope that the SDBus drivers has been updated, and (cross my fingers) that SDIO H/W slot is the same.
hmm....something more to be cheerful about during Christmas...
Yep, have a tried a few different versions, and all have worked okay. I had to give back the Mini before I could find the SDBus drivers, as had a similar idea for the XDA2.
Thanksfully still have a XDA2s to play with for a while.
Different version of SDIO drivers

I wonder why I didn't look at this before.
The Mini and JAM has the same version of SD drivers:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\SDIO]
"SDMemory"="0.25.00"
"Common"="0.25.60"
"SDBusDriver"="BSQ 1.2 + 0.25.00"
Whereas the 2.02/2.06 has these version:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Drivers\SDIO]
"Common"="0.15.10 HIMA"
"SDBusDriver"="0.15.00 HIMA"
Anyone can confirm the 2.20tl version?
The drivers are in the ROM though, and it's not a simple search and replace operation.
I wonder, would it be worth to upgrade the Himalaya with Magician ROM???
I'd quite a few pple now that says that the 256MB SD drivers for PPC 2003 works with the Mini now. I've tweaked the registries for the Himalaya, but only get as far to allow the wlan tools to recognise the card..still no joy.
Guess what...sd wifi of (256 combo) working....
I've managed to get the Wifi portion of the Sandisk Wifi 256 working
on my 206 ROMed XDA2 device.
The steps are abit complicated, so try at you own risks!
The steps are:
(a) download the sandisk 256 drivers from www.sandisk.com (256mb-setup03.exe)
(b) remove your XDA2 device from the cradle, and execute the file.
(c) Goto to the Microsoft ActiveSync folder, and look for this folder "SanDisk Corp\Wi-Fi_WINCE400"
(d) Within this folder, there is a Pegas.2577.CAB
(e) Using WinCAB Manager, open this CAB file
(f) Within the Pegas.2577.CAB file, there is another "SDBusDriver12.CAB" at file index 5.
(g) Now, download the Magician ROM (the SD card version) from the forum's ftpsite.
(h) Using dumprom, dump the contents of the Magician ROM and locate 2 files "SDBusDriver.dll" and "SDMemory.dll"
(i) Replace these 2 new files with the ones in the "SDBusDriver12.CAB"
(j) Re-save the "SDBusDriver12.CAB" and replace the file in "Pegas.2577.CAB"
(k) save "Pegas.2577.CAB" and connect the XDA2 device back to the cradle.
(l) install the Sandisk drivers following the prompts.
(m) Soft reset the XDA2 device when done.
Insert the 256MB+Wifi SD card, and activate the Wifi !!!
You might find that I've gone the long way as I have yet to figure out the full implications of the setup. It doesn't replace the original DLL files in /Windows as the 2 files are installed as CUSTOM SD drivers.
Perhaps we can pool our brains together and crack the SDMemory portion.
I am surfing on my XDA2 device using the Wifi as I am writing this, so I believe we are close to the verge of cracking this.
hello,
I recieved my s100 with the sd wifi/storage card and trying to setup a wifi connection.
I installed the sd drivers and i scanned for an wifi accespoint i noticed that my neigboars are having a wifi acces point.

i don't really know what you mean.
i was talking about the standard sandisk software and there is a tab called "AP Browser"
what is the brand of the access point wi-fi that you have ?

bussy deciding whitch one to buy, I'm now trying to access the neigboars netwerk.
Unless your neighbour has specifically allowed you access to his network you will probably not be allowed to connect.
And as long as you're trying with your neighbours access point, brilcas question about the make of the access point would apply to the one they have.
OK I had a wifi connection.
my brother turned his laptop into an AP and i had a connection with it.
So I know the wifi on the imate works but there's still one problem.
When i was connected with wifi and i tryed IE explorer it wanted to connected by using wifi.
How can i change that into wifi?
eltinio,
I am still trying to get WiFi to work on the WM2003SE UK XDAII version...
In response to your question, you need to tap Start > Settings > Connections and then tap Connections (make sure your WiFi card is in and enabled).
Tap the Advanced Tab and then tap the Select Networks button, from the first drop down list select My Work Network and then tap Edit.. > Proxy Settings tab and then tap the 'This Network connects to the Internet' checkbox and then tap OK to save and OK again to exit the connection manager.
You will no be able to browse the internet...
henrylim,
Could you post a link to the WiFi drivers you cooked or provide the file in this thread please so we can all test it out as most people may not able to perform the tasks you have listed to enable the WiFi drivers.
Thanks in advance,
Godz
XDA Mini and SD Wi-Fi
Do you guys know if the SD Wi-Fi card Sandisk or Sockets supports WPA encryption when added to the Mini and also if the problems with Dlink 54G/B wireless access points have been fixed yet?

Strange issues during ActiveSync'ing

When I ActiveSync, I notice my laptop shows that it is trying to make a network connection...then stops trying. A minute later, my K-Jam says it was unable to make a network connection. The strange part is that I haven't setup anything to make a network connection. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tom
Upgrade to 4.1
I read somewhere that the Wizard does not sync properly witch any ActiveSync versions before 4.1 (which is not officially out yet).
Check here for info and download: http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=375
activesync 4.x does use ip addresses, if you check this link and then the link in it, you will get some answeres & hopefully all your problems will be solved.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32022
I'll check out the link....thanks!!! I have 4.1 installed since I got my K-Jam. I rarely ever used it with my PDA2K, but I have to install programs...damn those exe's...why can't everyone just use CAB files.
Thanks,
Tom
situation that can arise with cab files is they self destruct/delete after the install is completed,
unless you change the attributes to read only
