Need settings for O2 gprs - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading

Hi,
The long and short of my tale is that my XDAIIi connects to GPRS but can not download email or browse the web. I believe this is because it keeps connecting to GRPS(O2 Active) and I think it needs to connect to GPRS (Mobile Web). Any ideas why this may be? I've tried altering various things but it keeps connecting to O2 Active which I think is incorrect.
I removed O2 Active but maybe having that would let me reset the settings. Is there a place I can download this from as I do not have my installation CD.
Thanks,
James.

If you search, you'll find cab files for all networks and types.
Just download the cab and copy of the PDA and run it from the PDA it'll install all the details for you.
Simple as.

Nice one. Thanks.

Problem with Internet Passthru via ActiveSync

I had all this working until I did the new Cingular 8125 update, and at the same time I updated ActiveSync 4.2 ... But I don't think it is necessarily one of these causing it ... could be emoze install.
Whenever I try to go to anything on the internet (mail, browser, other apps) while connected to ActiveSync I am blocked. I didn't use to have this problem.
From the browser, if I try to enter a URL I get the following: "The page you are looking for cannot b found due to unknown error 0x80072f78."
Everything works from GPRS/EDGE, but not while connected to ActiveSync.
- ActiveSync is set for connection to "Automatic" (I tried both My Work and Internet)
Any ideas?
I have the same problem
I have the same problem as well.
Me too!
As soon as you connect your phone to active sync it will automatically use your computer's internet connection as the default, so bt and/or gprs will be disabled, this feature is by design unfortunately...
If you connect your phone just to charge it or take remote control with something like SOTI Pocket Controller then disable the USB connection within active sync and make a TCP/IP connection for SOTI Pocket Controller if necessary.
That is the problem... Activesync isn't serving as that Conduit anymore. Before the latest firmware release it would pass the connection through and you would use your laptop/desktop PC as the internet connection and override the GPRS or other network settings.
Now, when you connect to Activesync, it is returning an error. This seems to be a problem in either the Activesync 4.2 or 8125 new release. The problem starts as soon as you load these. Nothing else loaded, etc.
Anyone have any ideas on this? It is troubling as my automatic updates no longer work when I am syncing and aren't there now when I disconnect.
I also use this for demos showing mobile web sites.
Please help!
I have the same problem..anyone can help
Directly from Microsoft:
"To all those who have had problems with connecting to the internet from the device when upgrading from ActiveSync 4.1 to 4.2:
ActiveSync version 4.2 made a change to how it interacts with the Windows networking stack to use Layered Service Providers (LSPs) on outgoing Desktop-Pass-Through connections. This allows for improved compatibility in environments where connections to the internet must be passed through these LSPs (ISA Proxy is one such example).
Unfortunately, it appears this change has caused some issues for a small segment of users who have LSPs that interfere with ActiveSync communication.
There is a registry key fix which will essentially remove this change.
Please download and rename the attached text file with the .txt extension to the .reg extension. In other words, change the file LSPvalue.txt to LSPvalue.reg. Afterwards, please double click on the newly renamed .reg file and click on the "Yes" button.
This should resolve your issues.
Thanks,

Here is the reg patch. It works...
I had the same issue. I didn't apply that registry patch but I did change something in activesync. I did "File" > "Connection Settings" and in the drop down on the bottom that says "This computer is connected to" the default is "Automatic". I set it to "The Internet" and I've gotten connectivity ever since.
That did it! You rock!!
BTW, I tried the other suggested fix of the connection settings, which did not work. The registry patch is the only fix I know of that works!

for me, the activesync-settings change worked, no reg patch needed.
so it is at least worth a try...

Internet Explorer Mobile cannot open page

Hi all,
I got this message on my Wizard when I try to enter any web address or click a favorite : "The address is not valid. Check the address and try again.".
I think it must have happened after I used Mermaid to clean some wrong registry, now IE just doesn't respond well. (however another browser works, like AvantGo or Mini Opera).
I have hard-reseted the device and restore system settings but no luck (since the system restore must have put the error back in place).
any idea ?
thx in advance.
maybe you have to change the settings in the connection tab. I had a similar problem and it was because by default the GPRS connection was used and I only wanted to use WIFI. Make sure that the connection settings are correct for your service provider.
hope this helps
nope, not working with either GPRS or Wifi
even so that opera works fine with both GPRS or Wifi or LAN connected to PC. And I did compare my connections settings to a friend who has the same phone, the same O2 provider and they are both similar.
So my question is more :
- how do I reinstall Internet Explorer only ?
is there a way ?

You can't. It's part of the Mobile O/S.
Do the hard reset again but don't restore the settings. See if it works.
hard reset was the answer
such a shame ... :-(
Did you find some solution? Was it OK after hard reset?
Removed IE--How to redirect programs to Opera?
I have a related problem:
I installed Opera Mini 4.1 and it works great, much quicker and better display than IE. However, it appears that a number of other applications have failed to work and time out without IE. Do I need to reinstall IE? (I was able to set up Opera to open with the IE button.
Does my question make sense? Basically, programs that need a browser don't seem to connect through Opera. How do I direct them to the new browser in the absence of IE? Thanks in advance!
Gary
i cant get opera mini on my wizard. help, please. says phone model not detected

Internet via USB/Computer Inet Access

Hiho,
Somehow I dont manage to get into the internet thought my USB Cable and the Computers Inet Connection, allthought I have set the option in Active Sync (4.5 Beta)...
Do I have to do additional things?
Using Jesters 3.3 AKU ROM...
Greets
Oliver
Well my friend to tell the truth,I tried doing that for 2 days (since I bought my little machine) and still can't do it...When my brother had Qtek 7070 I just pluged in and Internet worked...But now...well,troubles...PLEASE GOOD PEOPLE IF SOMEONE CAN HELP US WE WOULD BE GREATFULL...Greetings!
I am not sure if there is something specific for the 3.3 ROM (or any other custom ROM) but here is what you normally do:
First, make sure that in Settings->Connections->Connections->Advanced->Network selection->Programs that connect to the internet use...
you select 'My ISP'.
Then in PC side Activesync->Connection settings (right click the tray icon) select 'This computer connects to' -> 'The internet'.
Now make sure all firewalls are off or check MS site on how to allow ActiveSync for your firewall (this includes XP built in and 3rd party firewalls).
Hope this helps.
Sadly no success....
Prob with Internet connection
Hi everbody,
i've got a problem with my xda neo too. There is no way to use the pocket internet explorer or the wheater plugin from www.pocketnavigation.de, but icq works. There is no possibility to use the net via ActiveSync (4.5) or via W-LAN. But on both connections i could ping the device.
It seems that there's a problem with the device, but i don't know, where i should look to solve the problem.
Please Help!!!!
Karsten
I had the same problem with my O2 XDA Neo. It manifested as "error report NoXXXXXX" when I try to open the page in PIE.
Recently I find an Registry Add that solved my problem. Download to desktop and add it in PC registry (not PPC)
Hope that will help!

Activating WiFi -> launching QuickGPS -> Download...
I'm having the same problem and I am connected either by Wifi, Active Sync (WMDC6.1) or GPRS and still get the message "Connection Failed, Please try again later". I know ive got a web connection, cos i can access the web! I've raised call wiv HTC & will post back any reply I get from them but if anyone has any bright ideas. I know there is a manual workaround but would rather get to root cause.
If you're in WM5 you have to deactivate the advanced connexion functionnality (maybe not the exact name, I have a french rom). How to do it: go in settings --> tab "connexions" --> usb to PC --> deactivate the option shown
It worked for me, I couldn't access the net via activesync, now I can.
If WM6 I don't know, maybe the same.
Is it a matter of proxy settings ?
I have the same problem in my office. The web surf works but neither the weather update nor the QuickGPS update. Whereas at home everything is fine. The proxy settings made by the administrator filter the acces to the update.
quite some time ago i somewhere found this to help (seems to be win xp prob):
lsp value to be added to xp registry!

Go through: Start/Settings/Connections/Connections/Advanced/Select Networks and set the first drop down box as My Work Network and be sure your wifi connection is set as Work and not The internet.

I don't have a "my work network" settings...what should I do ??...and that's because i use wap also..what should i do ...will downloading a new ROm be the Answer??
mmm... if you're using wap/gprs, try setting the above description from Scotchy fo MY ISP... that should be your user defined wap connection.... maybe this will help, maybe not, I don't have your OS.
