Anyone else experienced this message when trying to use Pocket IE: "The address is not valid. Check the address and try again"
I tried numerous urls from http://www.google.co.uk to http://pda.o2.co.uk using GPRS, UTMS and WiFi and still no joy after installing the AKU2
Bloody annoying
Working fine for me after AKU2.
Does your email work? Opera? MMS?
sorted it after not unstalling RESCO FTP
Hey stickeresq - I'm getting the same problem. Can you clarify what you did to get around it?
Thanks

On a PC, you can go to http://wap.oa.yahoo.com, and login to your yahoo account to read your emails, etc.
If I do the same from my XDA2, it says "Unable to connect: Ensure that your modems are present and inserted correctly, and no network card present".
If I try this with any other web site (e.g. http://www.bbc.co.uk) it connects and works fine.
Does anyone else get this, and does anyone know a way around it?
Thanks!
On my XDA, http://wap.oa.yahoo.com works fine.
But WAP stinks on a capable device like the XDA or XDAII. Why not use http://www.yahoo.com instead, or set up your Inbox to download your Yahoo headers and/or messages?
can i realy do that?? setup INBOX for yahoooo???
please show me how! i couldnt even set the outlook express on PC to do that!
thanks a million.

You can only do this if you pay extra for POP3 access to Yahoo emails - which I don't want to do as this isn't my primary email account.
Also, going through http://www.yahoo.com means you get all the ads, graphics, etc. Even over a GPRS line, this makes it quite painfull.

I just got a new XDA II and I could access Yahoo without problems. After an involutary hard reset all the O2 stuff got installed (seems it was not installed the first time I used the device), and now I'm having the same problem as you're describing. Has O2 added something "clever" so that if it sees "wap" in the path, it thinks it should use a wap connection? In any case I can't find these settings and delete it. I want it to work as it did before the hard reset! Help!
Try wsp://wap.oa.yahoo.com insted of http://wap.oa.yahoo.com
HTTP = PC
WSP = WAP

cheers
WSP doesn't work either. Probably because that signals even more to the computer that you're trying to establish a WAP connection, which I don't want to do and which isn't set up either. The funny thing is that it worked before the hard reset, and I never had any problems on my old XDA I.
I managed to remove all the O2 stuff from the extended ROM, and after a hard reset, I can now access http://mobile.yahoo.com/mail again! Once you access http://mobile.yahoo.com/mail, the path changes to http://wap.oa... and from this point on it complained. Until I removed the O2 stuff. So now I'm happy it works, but I'd still like to know what settings O2 infiltrated to stop it from working. Does anyone have a clue?

I think it have something to do with Connection settings and or Registery settings for Browser ID string (User ID String)
example:
Of youre browser ID is "Mozilla/4.0(compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows CE; PPC; 240x320)" Than you w'll get a diffrent page if you have something else.
After I changed my Browser ID (to see more free stuff from orange GRPS/Orange World) I cant get the colored page of Yahoo Too.
Can you post here youre Browser ID please?
To see youre browser ID string, Visit http://www.showip.com on youre PPC, and let me know please.
Cheers
I just bought an XDA2i and am having the same problem with the mobile Yahoo site. Since nobody has managed to unlock the extended ROM in XDA2i yet , I cannot remove the O2 stuff that is causing the problem (forcing a different connection for web adresses starting with "wap"). On my XDA2 i could unlock the extended ROM and remove the O2 bits, and this solved the problem. With XDA2i I'm stuck...
Guys,
I've got a problem:
My company uses a Sonicwall firewall; i have to acces my exchange server through a VPN client. It worked on my Blue Angel, but I can't install it on my JJ. I get an error:
"This program can only be used for Pocket PC 2003 or higher"
I tried to get Sonicwall to fix the problem, but they are not doing anything! I got my JJ so I could have fast email on the road (3G) and now I'm stuck with a VGA device, that I can't use for the one thing I bought it for in the first place!
I have the cabfiles for the Pocket client, is there a way to remove the "version check" from it? If so, please let me know, I'll send or post the cab.
can you send it to me ?
Ill have a look..
If anyone can get this to work, please post here. I'll probably need to get this sonicwall client to run on my Jasjar in about a month. Maybe by then they'll have updated it for WM5.
Brett
Hi got a newer version, but still no luck, waiting as well.
Wounder if there r other sw that work with sonic ?
PM not working?
Soft, I tried to PM the file to you, but it doesn't work!
Could I email it to you?
stynos
If the installer is a .cab would it not be possible to repackage ti using wincecabmanager to remove the os version check?
Buzz lightyear tried to fix it, but it didn't work. Anybody else have a clue?
I'v rtied it no luck, go a newer version, no luck :-(
Someone said something about using the oddesy client, working with sonic ?
anyone ?
Any updates on this?
Does anyone have more info on the sonicwall client?
Since moving from a Jam to a JAMin, I have a problem with using GPRS and IE to access Google. Each time I try to search with Google, I get a message "The page cannot be displayed or doanloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection and try again". In fact, there is no connection problem. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there some setup in WM5 which does not like Google (or vice versa)? Thanks for any help.

I have no problem with Google and IE either.
Thanks Hellomoto 25 and Acer. I get the Google homepage but it is the search results which get the message I referred to. No other ideas? Thanks.

Have you tried ppcWebCam?
http://zone1.de/latest.html
the last version of coolcamera does it!
Thanks for the answers.
pat12:
I've tried CoolCamera and it worked, but I don't know how to recognize it with MSN, and there isn't any how-to on CoolCamera's forum.
Can you tell me how to do it?
wgary:
Nope I didn't tried it yet but should in a few days. Thanks, for the clue

How do i find my IP address while connected thru GPRS or EDGE?
You must enter Server IP-address, not PDA address.

Hi,
I have recently picked up an Orange SPV M3100. I installed skype 2.2 on it and tried to run it. The login screen comes fine, but when I click on "Sign in", it gives me a pop up saying "Skype needs an internet connection to function. Do you want Skype to connect to the internet through a cellular connection?"
When I click YES, I get "Unable to connect to the internet. Please check your network settings."
My internet through IE works fine on GPRS. It is good speed and works excellent. I am able to use MSN Live as well, but Skype doesn't seem to be working.
I've been through posts - where there have been suggestions to check the proxy settings. But there are no proxy settings in the mobile.
Anyone who can help me out here?? Most posts discussed how easy it is to connect to Skype using GPRS and how easy this works. I have been trying for quiet some time to no avail.
Alternatively, can someone give me an older version of this Skype for PPC, which might work for me??

Saurabh Dubey
