Set WiFi as priority then gprs. - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hiya,
Noob here - please be gentle
Have been borwsing the site for a few days and still haven't found a definitive answer to this:
I have uninstalled the o2 bloat, but still want to be able to access o2's wap stuff (for train times, etc)
When I am at home and connected to wifi I want to use that, but when I'm out on the road I want to use GPRS. I have read somewhere that you can set up wifi to be the first port of call, and if that's not available then use GPRS. Any ideas? C'mon - you're clever!
Thanks

anyone?
this is a question i heared a lot, but never found an answer.

Broadband on XdaII..

Hello evryone newbie here i want 2 know if it is possible to connect the xda to the computer to use broadband rather than using my 02 contract? help would be great. Keep instructions simple if possible as i am new to this.
Connect via docking cradle and it connects to broadband byitself.
If you have BLUETOOTH on your pc - it should connect wirelessly ok via this too.
Do you have bluetooth on pc?
i dont have bluetooth on pc but how do i select to use broadband as apposed to selecting just normal gprs.
Thanks for your quick reply

Give over
Hold on a second boy....I did the honorable thing that all newbies should do and i used that little button called "search" in which i searched for all things realted to broadband and xda2. Nothing helped..slightly too complex for a "Newbie". So what was i to do?, had i known it was a crime i wouldnt have posted a straight forward question in which i greatfully recieved a straight forward answer. What however was pointless was your post which is:
1. A pain in the ass.
2. Cocky and not relevant.
3. An indication that you my son have far too much time on your hands to go around hassling newcomers (who YOU once were!!!) who just want a little bit of help with thier brand new xda 2 and dont want to hoke throu thousands of posts in the off chance that i may find it intime for the xdaIII.
Amen
P.S. Whilst searching i found a topic entitled: How to post a message in a forum, without double posting?......check it out :!:

Nice one matey, there's nothing like slapping down cocky buggers when they need it, and I see from his previous responses that he does! If you can't help, keep it shut! The search option rarely helps, it just brings up too many random finds, it's quicker to 'rely on the kindness of strangers' as the lady said. The bluetooth option works well, when you get the right product, I struggled for months with a bloody belkin card then went mad and blew another £25 on a usb dongle from USBtech.co.uk, worked like a charm right out of the box. Just sync via bluetooth from the options menu on the xda. I can't see much point surfing with the bugger in the cradle though, but I think you just tick 'Allow network and Remote Access Service in Connection Settings in Activesync on the PC, I could be wrong but I'm sure someone will tell me.
Cheers
Re: Give over
Hey, I'm not being cocky. I'm no expert either, but I managed to find out how to do it without asking, so I'm sure you can too.
For starters, how about these three topics for connecting to the Internet through your USB cradle? Took me about 30 seconds to find them.

There are even more topics about Bluetooth connections and Internet access. If you search other websites too you'll find loads of info.

Fair point. Guess that's what comes from posting using the XDA2...
And Bully: Your post offered nothing more useful to d4vel than mine did, except maybe some moral support of my imagined cockiness, so I'd suggest you follow your own advice: if you can't help, keep it shut.
You win cocky-boy xx
Sorted
Now isn't the forum a better place now that we have our fued worked out. . Sublimatica thanks for your help and Bully thanks for your support. Just to let ya's know i have sorted out browsing with the cradle and got bluetooth sync working too.

odd GPRS problem

Hi,
my GPRS connection is working, it connects without any problem but when i try to navigate with PIE then I can see the message "Opening" on the left lower corner but it just stays that way for a long time and the page never gets displayed. My e-mail works fine so that means i have GPRS connection and working. If i try navigating to a WAP site some pages get displayed and some other don't. If i connect via WiFi or via activesync then i can navigate without any problems. Based on my observations I suspect a problem with the MRU (Maximum receive Unit) of the TCPiP stack but i can not find on the registry where to change that.
Hope someone can help.
I used Tweak2K2 to set it in mine. Sorry I do not know the Reg setting.

I wonder whether your HTTP proxy port number is correct. I had same problem and I was using the advertised port number until I discovered there was another one that actually worked. I would suggest a port number but I'm O2 UK (it was `advertised as 80 but only actually worked on PIE with 8080)
Mike
You are not alone
Please check the following threads, both are related to our problem, unfortunely none of them gives a solution.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286449
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=287101
My GPRS connection doesn´t require an HTTP proxy server so Mike´s suggestion didn´t work for me. I contacted Movistar and they are not open to give support since I didn´t buy the device from them....
On the other hand, if somebody can provide the ROM reg settings and a brief instruction on how can be changed would be great
Hi Luiggi
Sorry you have not got it solved yet. I remembered your post and looked for it but did not find it - hoped you had a solution to offer - sadly not
Edit: I suppose you are certain about the proxy? I ask because mine will connect to GPRS just fine without it - BUT PIE does not unless it's set.
Mike
Maybe it is a Movistar problem
Interesting, so happens that my service provider is also Movistar; maybe they have done something different to their network settings. Any way, I was in the US recently and was able to use GPRS roaming although because the TyTN does not differentiates between GPRS and EDGE it could have been that it was using EDGE and that it why i could navigate using PIE.
The funny thing about this problem is that my e-mail works fine and my SPB whether also updates without problems, it is only the navigation with PIE that i have issues with. Based on my observations it seems to be that if the tcp packet is larger that a certain size it gets dropped by the tcp stack.
Not lucky so far
Hi Mike!
Movistar people told me that the don´t need proxy servers for the connections since they use Dynamic IP addresses (?). I´ve have tried a lot of different configurations but not luck so far, the comment posted above could be they key, now the big question is: What are the proper settings and how to modify the reg...?
Will reflashing the phone be the only solution?
Well looks like the options are narrowing down to reflashing the phone.... I'll give it a couple of days more to see if someone can give Us a hint on what to do.

I´m not sure about reflashing, actually I have two 8525 I paid to SIM unlock the 1st one so I still have the original ROM 1.34.505.1 and the symptoms are the same, I don´t know what ROM would be suitable to "solve" the problem in case this would be causing the partial lock.
New Finding
I´ve been trying a lot of things and I guess I´m close to the root cause. I strated from scratch with a hard reset and giving a soft reset before the 3 sec secreen of auto configuration, then I tried to set a connection in my ISP, I named it "The Internet" and when I hit the OK button I got a message saying that there was an existing connection setting under the same name!!! I couldn´t find such connection, so I´m pretty sure that the connection is hidden somewhere in the ROM and we need to disable it and create a new one or modify the reg to address a different connection consistent with our own network.... Any thoughts on this?

I mapped that one in Cingular, the MMS settings are self extracted from the extended ROM, if you want to get rid of it just do a hard reset and then a soft reset when the 3 sec message shows up, hope this can help you

I went thru all regs and I couldn´t find MRU or LCP (Link Control Protocol) settings, what disturbes me more is that I put my SIM in my 8125 and everything (IE. messenger, Gmail, Hotmail, etc.) works wonderful!! I think I´ll put on sale my 8525.......
More findings
I do have GPRS connection, no doubt about it. I install Tonaya Iper in my phone and the software gives the ability to trace the route from my phone to the destination, for instance The route to www.gmail.com (216.239.63.19)
is as follows (I set the time [email protected]):
1.- 10.15.14.78
2.- 10.2.4.20
3.- 10.2.4.134
4.- 200.36.174.81
5.- 200.39.31.42 (mx-mesr-rt1.telefonica-data.com.mx)
6.- 213.140.50.233 (So-2-3-1-grtmtyma2.red.telefonica-wholesale.net
7.- Request timed out
8.- 213.140.43.25
9.- 213.140.43.225
10.- 213.140.36.45
11.- 213.140.37.57
12.- 64.233.123
13.- 66.249.94.8
14.- 72.14.233.123
15.- 71.14.233.123
16.- 216.239.63.19 (bp-in-f19.google.com)
When I try to trace the communication with a 1 second timeout the phone stalls for a while in server 213.140.50.233 and makes the traceability extremely slow.
My conclusión is that when the communication reach the server 213.140.50.233 this cause a delay and my phone can not continue to the final destination probably because the pre set delay in the application exceeds its timout parameter.
Any suggestions?
Not a "Maybe" MOVISTAR is guilty for poor GPRS connections!!

Today I use a SIM from the other mexican cell company (telcel), I just enter APN, user name and password and in a blink my 8525 flew thru PIE, hotmail, MS messenger, Gmail and everything!!! Conclusion:Movistar system or set ups are causing all the connection problems, I´ve spent hours in the phone with their wonderful engineers and none of them has been able to explain why Movistar can´t give a decent service to 8525 users.
Using the Traceroute feature of IPer I notice a very long delay to ping the Movistar router located in Madrid (213.140.50.233), there´s where I think the problem is.
You are right Luiggi...!
One of the guys here at the office also has a Dopod 838pro (I'm ussing a HTC TyTN) but with Telcel instead of Movistar...the push e-mail capabilities and the internet surf are really very good ...but with the GPRS of Movistar I recive my e-mails very delayed in the phone and also still unable to sing in to MSN messenger.
Thanks to your post now I know the trut; I was really thinking that maybe the TyTN was the problem (I mean, the HTC branded because the Dopod was functioning just very fine) I was even thinking in return it...
regards
Hummm I suspected that....
Well I think we have (a winner) an answer (partially), I will go back to Movistar and complain, I may not get any results from it but I really have no options since because of my work I travel a lot and the roaming pricing I get with them is way better that the other alternative. The funny thing about this issue is that other HTC phones do not have it. A co worker has a Wizard and he can navigate with PIE. Maybe it would be interesting to investigate what could be the difference or why other phones can navigate and Tytn can't.
Wizard works great!

I do my living buying and selling phones and I guess next time (tomorrow) I get a Wizard for sale I´ll spend enough time going thru the registry and routes to compare it with the Hermes. Would you guys mind to run IPer and check if the afore mentioned router or server with the problem is common for all of us?
I already wrote a not very nice letter to Movistar, probably they are shocked because normally their tournaround time for an answer is less than 24hrs and this time is taking longer. Next letter I´m going to be addressing the Director or whoever is the top dog.
How do I get/ run the aplication mentioned???
I would like to help to figure out what the problem is or help you guys to get to a solution...so, where can I find and how do I use the software luiggi is mentioning??
Is it free or with a trial version???

A Couple of Questions...?

I have
A couple of questions I would like to put forth to the more tech savvy phone people out there somewhere in internet land, if you will indulge me...?
1) Does anyone know of a program that will stop the GSM radio light from blinking and yet keep the radio on? I really don't mind the flashing most of the time, but it IS a bit of a distraction when using eReader... Some kind of toggle program would be most helpful. Someone somewhere must have written one at some point...
2) I am having a problem with the internet. I have looked it up on the web and found that others have had a similar problem, yet no one seems to know what is causing it.
What is happening is I can connect to MediaNET when I push the explorer button, but once I disconnect, I need to soft reset the device before I can connect again, because I get a message that the "answering modem has disconnected." If I soft reset, or turn flight mode on and then back off, I can reconnect.
What I have read on the web is that Cingular is having problems with the net, while other people seem to think this is Cingular's way of telling me to get the PDA plan instead of the MediaNet plan. I have read tons and tons of messages regarding MediaNet vs. PDA connect, and there really seems to be no clear opinion on what is what and who is allowed what.
Ask 10 people about it, get 10 different answers.
SO...Has anyone found the cause of this problem yet? I am not the first to have it, and I am guessing I won't be the last.
Any light that can be shed on either of these would be most helpful. I do have a WiFi access here at the house, but I prefer GPRS if I can have it, because (of course) then I can access anywhere.

The answering modem has disconnected is a common problem with WM5. There are two things you can do to solve them. Look in the WIKI for the reg tweak that leaves GPRS always on. This way it will never be disconnected, and if you turn on wifi, the wizard knows to use wifi over gprs, so you will not be charged. It doesn't cost you anything to leave gprs on, as long as you aren't surfing the internet.
The other thing you can do is do not disconnect from gprs. After using IE, close the browser, but don't disconnect your gprs, leave it on. I have found that after sometime it will disconnect on its own, and then I do not get the answer modem has disconnected, when I try to reconnect. And as I stated before, it does not cost you if gprs is on, as long as it is not being used.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Thank you for your reply. It would all of it make sense except that this "common problem" was not a problem at all until about a week ago. I have had this gadget for almost a year now and only now is this beginning to happen. If this was a WM5 bug, wouldn't it have been this way from the beginning? Then again, I am more of a writer than a programmer, so I am sure I wouldn't know. Still, I do know my way around computers somewhat...
I have the xda reg wizard and I have the PHM editor. I am aware (of course) of the always on tweak and I have already thought about maybe doing that. I was just hoping there was another solution.
On the plus side, I am not too worried about the cost because I have unlimited net. I figure what with a toy like this, you really need it to use the phone to its full potential.
I am curious why this problem would pop up out of nowhere? I was reading elsewhere in the forums that wisbar caused the same thing, but I am not using wisbar. During the short time I did, I didn't have that problem. I am wondering if maybe another app is getting in the way? Is it possible this is not a WM5 bug but a software conflict? I would have to hard reset and reload one at a time to find it.
But then maybe I can report back here and save others the same trouble, which I'd be happy to do.
That's interesting about how it will reconnect when it disconnects on its own. That just convinced me to edit the reg. I'll try it.
Thanks.
Meanwhile, if anyone else has an idea why this should suddenly stop working, I am still curious...?

It is Photo Contacts Pro version 5.06 that is causing the problems with the internet.
If anyone else has this new version installed, please get back to me if you are having similar issues. I'd be interested in knowing.

HTC 3600 Questions (GPS, 3g Browsing etc !)

Hi all,
Firstly, apologies for being a bit of a newb here, but this is my first ever PDA type phone, and im getting myself confused, and for no real reason it seems !
I've done a bit of searching around, and from what I can work out I am going to make a few assumptions
1 - I should be able to, without using my WLAN connection, browse the internet on my HTC3600 through internet explorer, using my Vodafone 3g or GPRS connection.
2 - there is a way to enable some random wizardry chip inside the phone to activate GPS, and if I was to install TomTom Satnav software, this would work with no extra dongles etc.
Now. if my assumptions are correct (and one should never assume anything) I would be greatly appreciated if someone could in easy to follow newbie freindly (as in, click on start, programs,) instructions as to how I would ...
1 - do what is required to get GPS working
2 - do what is required to get the 3g web browsing working.
Im sure this would be a useful sticky if you cna help me do this, but having a search round on the forum I havn't seen these instructions spelt out. Aware that whatever you tell me I do at my own risk etc, but would really appreciate some help here
cheers all

Usually I would say search and stop being a noob but I'll be nice today.
1 - I should be able to, without using my WLAN connection, browse the internet on my HTC3600 through internet explorer, using my Vodafone 3g or GPRS connection.
Correct, however you'll have to setup your internet settings for Vodafone, you can usually find these settings on vodafone's support website or by calling customer service.
2 - there is a way to enable some random wizardry chip inside the phone to activate GPS, and if I was to install TomTom Satnav software, this would work with no extra dongles etc.
If you have an older ROM loaded on your P3600 then yes you'll have to upgrade it to enable the GPS. You can check your ROM by going to start->settings->system->device information if it's 1.15, you'll need to upgrade it to get GPS, however if it says 1.23, your GPS should already be enabled. You may also want to look into upgrading your P3600 to WM6.
Here are some useful links
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Trinity
http://trinityguides.info/
BTW, don't get too attached to this phone, the screen will probably stop responding in about a month and you'll have to send it in to get serviced.
Good luck.

Don't do anything apart from going to Start/Settings/System/Device Information and checking what is listed for Radio ROM. If it ends in **.**.11 it is GPS enabled. If not, as vanydotk says, you will need to update the Radio ROM.
Any GPS aware application (TomTom etc, etc) will automatically initiate the GPS receiver as needed, as long as the applications settings point to the correct GPS port (COM9) You don't need any additional hardware.

Make sure you have a 3G SIM card, and 3G is enabled on your account (it isn't always).
Use This Guide to manually configure the Vodafone settings (HTC did have an automatic file to do this, but it's been pulled from their site). Note there are different settings for contract and PAYG accounts.
Be very aware that mobile browsing can be very expensive. Before you do anything, make sure you buy a data bundle, or it may cost you up to £3 per MB of data.
Also a newbie and had spent some time reading the forum looking for answers... Can any experts clarify and/or confirm my question below? I know it s a very basic question for many here, but I would really appreciate it if someone can help me to get this working.
Do I have to have Mapping software installed on my Trinity in order for the GPS to work?
I go into the Camera mode by pressing the "shutter" button. Tap on the camera icon (upper left in landscape view) to enable GPS. However, nothing happens. Looks like it just keeps trying to start GPS.
The screen message reads: "Initializing GPS..."
What do I need to do to get the GPS working?
According to a previous post. My device came with the GPS enabled based on the ROM versions on my Trinity.
Some info:
I purchased my D810 in Hong Kong but I am using it now in Taipei.
The ROM info are as follows:
-ROM version: 1.23.707.6
-ROM date: 02/08/07
-Radio version: 1.35.00.11
-Protocol version: 32.68.7020.10H
OS 5.1.461 (Build 15671.3.3.0) Windows Mobile 5.0 with Messaging and Security Feature Pack. English version.
I am currently on a pre-paid phone service (FarEast Tone) so I do not have access to 3.5G, etc.
Thanks in advance!!!

Connection priority

Sorry if this post is a question that has been answered, but I searched the forum and could not find.
I am new to the HTC/Windows Mobile world so I am still getting my sea legs. From this forum I found how to setup my gprs connection and got it to work.
But what I want to do is make my phone use wifi when available and then go to gprs when no wifi is available. Is there a way to prioritize my connections like this.
Thanx for any help u can give.
I'd like to know this as well as I haven't found an answer either.
