I have a rather strange issue with my GPRS connections.
Everything worked fine until probably something was changed by an installation or something yesterday....
Now PIE connects to GPRS, but says "it cannot download"
Opera though works perfectly.
Worldmate says it cannot connect.
Flexmail works perfectly.
The most peculiar is that the above also apply when I am using the dock as an Internet pass-through....
Should I guess that the programs that access the Web but utilising PIE's settings fall under the same group?
How can I solve this? (the most recent thing I did was to unchech USB advanced functionality, but this should not be it.....!)
Thanks in advance
I found it ! (?)
I found out that there was a proxy setting (I don't know how it got there or if it was in the first place!).
I removed it completely and now everything is back to normal!
I have the same problem. Where did you find this proxy settings to be deleted?
I tried a lot of things but this strange PE does not work

Would advise that if things were working ok until recently and even if not, that you take note of the settings before deleting them so they can be re-entered if necessary.

Thanks but PIE does not work still
I switched off the Proxy but PIE does not work through GPRS
I have a weird issue with world mate... mailed their support but guess their typing fingers went on a strike after the first reply...anyway all my other services seem to be happy with my internet connection and work without problems but my weather service works fine for the first few updates after a fresh install and then start giving connection not found error...any suggestions please...
It has to be a proxy setting. Your other option would be to completely delete gprs connection and recreate it.

Yep, joannaex is right, have your providers details handy and re-create the connection.

Enough is enough.
I had the same **** with my old PDA2K and now again with the Exec... I've spent 20 hours thus far on that ****. I just hard reset my machine yesterday and now again this **** happens and I cannot fix it.
I am surfing using UMTS/GPRS.. My definitions are FINE. There's only one connection. It was always fine that way on both the pda2k and the new exec.. but it stopped working now... it could be that some program messed up this ****, but i wouldn't know which.
Trying to browse to a site.. I get PIE saying 'Locating..." then after a minute or so saying "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded blah blah blah"... But the 3GUMTS is connected just fine.. Note that MSN Messenger doesn't work as well (I think that's because it's uses the core engine the PIE uses). Strangely, using networking utilities (vx) I can ping with the machine and even get HTML pages using web addresses. So the problem is not DNS and not a connection problem.. Just probably some damn problem with the operating system not recognizing something.. The 3rd party vxutilities for networking are bypassing that **** hence why they can browse the network just fine.
Tried deleting temp internet files and cookies nada... I also tried soft reset (about 20 times).. nada.... tried deleting the connection and recreating... nada... tried searchiong the registry for my connection name after deleted to see if traces exists.. nada...
Getting tired of this ****.. only hardreset solved it last time and i'm getting sick of becoming the machine's slave rather then the machine being my slave.
Help would be grately apprecaited..... I am sure it's ****ed up registry entry or something like that... I don't have many programs isntalled on my machine as I just hard reseted yesterday and my machine is in rather clean condition except for must have apps.
Help...SOS..
Check your proxy server info (in connections).
My XDA exec just loves to grab my work proxy server and try use that for accessing the web when wifi is active.

Thanks for trying to help...
but that's not the issue.. it's wwaayy deeper than that... ( i would have found it after 20 hours of trying had it been this easy ...
No proxy whatsoever. I never used Wifi. No work setup.. only "My ISP Setup".
anybody else? I'm offering $20 by paypal for the kind soul who can help stop my frustration WITHOUT hardresetting my machine or doing drastic moves. I need a permanent solution. If I solve it before so.. I will post my fix here...
UPDATE:
It's working now, though I don't like the solution, I changed in 'Connections' to connect through 'My Work Network' although I don't actually have any work network and I'm using it the same way I used the "My ISP" connection. It may stop working again though. i'll update.. but I still don't get it why the normal My ISP which always worked stopped working.

com'on someone please help me out here. i'll donate another 20 euro to this site if i find a solution... What I did yesterday (changed it so that it will use only the 'My work' profile both both internet and work worked fine.. but only for 24 hours. it now doesn't work again even after multiple softresets as well as deleting and defining the account again.. what a frustartion.
Now only that i cannot use PIE, I cannot use Terminal Server as well.. which is a bummer
Toggle flight mode on and then off.
Have ever try to remove check box of proxy in network tab? With mine it works.
proxy issue
I noticed the same thing on my wizard, I think it may be caused by an internet explorer automatic configuration script. When I manually provide the ip address and port number of the proxy server, the problem does not appear. I changed this in Internet Explorer running on my PC and in the Work connection on my phone. I have also changed the setting in Active Sync to choose the Work Network setting by default instead of automatic.
The only way I got Internet Explorer back to work was after a hard reset.
It did not happen again in the past 1,5 week. I have been restoring the same backup after each of these hardresets so I had an identical install everytime. It seems to be fine now.
I don't know how WM5 handles Active Directory policies (if it handles them at all) that may change your IE settings as well.

"Check your proxy server info (in connections).

My wizard does the same, it will work for a week or so and try using some random proxy for no reason!
I just uncheck the proxy tick box and the wifi connection works great with internet explorer. (well usually I tear my hear out for 5 mins and then realise its the proxy!)

PIE stuck at Locating
Hi mobiler,
I hope you have found a more permanent solution to your problem. I own an MDA Pro with TMobile UK and recently bacame plagued with the same symptoms which you reported, i.e., pocket explorer and opera mobile stuck at locating and not able to browse the web. Through some helpful suggestions on this thread I managed to find a solution which you may or may not have already tried. Like most people, I use my MDA pro at home on my home wireless Wifi network, and while away at work I use its GPRS/UMTS capabilities. I had no reason to think that these two features of the MDA Pro had any interactions with each other. In fact, I seem to remember reading somewhere that separate pieces of internal hardware provide these features. However, to my surprise/dismay I discovered that somehow the Wifi and GPRS/UMTS settings on the MDA pro are linked together. For example, if you setup a proxy server in the GPRS modem settings, which I recently did, without notifying you the Wifi connection also tries to use the same proxy setting. Vice versa if you setup a specific IP address and Gateway in your Wifi settings the GPRS modem connection also tries to use those settings and failing. The solution for getting back to normal internet browsing was to remove the proxy in modem connection by using its automatic settings ,and to tick the server assigned IP address for Wifi. This is a less than satisfactory solution, however, at least things are back to where they were before. I remain very puzzled at the interaction between these features and am dismayed and frustrated that there is nothing in the step by step procedures in each setting that warn you about a possible impact on the other.
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
hey guys i hope you can help. Heres my problem:
the preinstalled browsers like opera and IE cant use my internet connection (gprs). it seems like they dont habe the permission to use it because if i hit the "enter" key there nothing happening in the IE. In opera there coming that its a network problem.
In th R1 firmware it was like this: i entered an adress, i hit enter, on the top of my screen a bubble popped up telling me the gprs connection is established. in R2 firm it just does nothing. theres coming no bubble.
Anybody know how to fix this? it's pretty mad to have an high-end business phone which cant connect to the internet!
Check the internet settings!
Or set them manually - call your operator.

It is definately a Problem with Windows Mobile! The Beta Version of Mozilla's Fennec can connect to the internet. But its so damn slow that i dont wanna use it! So, any solutions ?
There is an other browser called Skyfire. I use that one all the time and I love it. I think it is stable, fast and good looking. You even can go to YouTube with it. Give it a try!
Greets!
back again. now i know why the programs cant access the internet, but i dont know how to solve it they try to connect to a VPN connection which is not existing. Also i cant set up a UMTS connection.
here's a screenshot
I want it to activate the data connection only when there is new mail on the exchange server, and then disconnect after the message is retrieved. Can this even be done given that the only way the mobile know that there is an email waiting on the server is being "poked" by the server through an IP connection.
Note that I am NOT asking for the activesync setting that synch's with the xchange server every 5/10/15/20/n minutes. I know about that and dont want to use that (that would be a pull, Im using push".
Anyone?

No, "NoData" shuts the connection off when not in use, otherwise you could just turn off your data connection.

Because it says:

So, I really think it close the connection for everything you select (Px Internet, Px Live, Px MMS, PX Push).
We shall know if hokiemiata has tryed it...
Havnt tried it yet because I dont think it is what I am looking for.
How do I "Undo" this CAB if I dont like it?
Sorry All,
THIS was the program I was thinking of, I had the 2 mixed up.
No Data is only good for timed syncs.
All changes revert back after uninstall.

I haven't tested because I don't use it.
I so was looking forward to having a comfortable way of managing my hotmail/live mailbox with the switch to HD2 with Winmo and MS Live integration.
However, when attempting to sync my hotmail on the device I get a box saying "Failed to Synchronize the Folder List" followed by another box saying "Failed to Sync".
From there I found nothing to do other than resetting the device. It then works fine for a couple of hours or maybe half a day if lucky until problem re-occurs.
Have tried everything I could think of including re-installing Win Live, changing synch schedules, disabling auto sync all toghether and go manual, empty/remove/reload my hotmail inbox and folder list, trying to find "bad" email items etc.. Nothing helped so far.
Am I the only user with this issue?
My device: HD2 UK, Rom ver 1.43.405.1, OS Ver 5.2.21864, Win Live ver 10.7.0057.0802 (I try to install v10.9 from Marketpllace but end up having this ver number every time)
If you are on T- mobile it maybe like me you have a problem using some service through their proxy server. To remedy go to
settings/menu/connections/manage existing connections/proxy settings tab/remove the tick in the "this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"box - OK out of all this and hopefully you should be good to go.
Thanks for the tip. I'm not on T-Mob but will look into proxy being the possible issue.
I'm trying remove Win Live V10.7 completely and replace with v10.9 which seems to be the latest version. Upgrade seems not taking effect on my device though. thinking perhaps this is resolved in Win Live V10.9? Will report back...
Also wondering if Rom v1.48 provides a fix to this. I haven't upgraded yet. any 1.48 users out there experiencing this problem?
My carrier is useless when asked about this and I haven't bothered speaking to HTC yet but may give it a try.
Did you setup manually? This is the only way I can get the connection to my hotmail...
Use pop3.live.com
smtp.live.com
Yea I have tried setting up hotmail as POP3 but you lose some things by doing that such as read/unread is not synced and deleting on both device and server seems not working. I'm still looking for a solution to get Win Live working error free. So far no luck, still trying....
On Tmobile, worked for me!
Glad I found this thread. I am on Tmobile and was stumped when trying to set up my hotmail. Everytime I'd get to step 4 of 5 and it would fail to sync. Then I followed the advice from CAH000 to delete the proxy server and it worked first time! Woo hoo!

having similar issue however the proxy setting is not ticked, i'm on vodafone.
Was working fine until I upgraded to the latest ROM.
Interesting coz I haven't had this since flashing from ROM 1.48UK to 1.66SEA. But only 2nd day so far, need to keep monitoring...

Im also on Vodafone and Ive had issues since marketplace suggested i download WLM 11.1. Since then ive been unable to sync my hotmail accounts. Tried to set it up manually and using WLM. No joy.
Proxy setting isnt ticked either. Its so frustrating!
Unfortunately have to confirm that ROM 1.66 does not fix this issue. The problem is back here. Perhaps radio ver 2.07 makes a difference? Haven't tried yet. Also digging into the registry looking for possible solutions. Getting fed up by all these issues I must admit and it's not small stuff...
Same problem here with the Danish stock 1.66 ROM.
First I thought it was because I installed the new version of Live from wl.windowsmobile.com, but that does not seem to be the problem
Is anyone with this issue running on radio version 2.07?
Same issue with 2.08
The problem happens when you upgrade to new version of WL from Marketplace.. If you have the old WL which came with stock rom or even 1.66. It works fine, but that MSN is old and is not that finger friendly than the newer ones. I just thought this problem would have been solved with the latest one and it isnt, and now i can uninstall and go back to the old one, have to hard reset
same problem
is there possible to uninstall wlm to install an older version ?
Older version of WLM didn't resolve this for me. Still got the issue. From the lack of interest/replies to this thread I guess only a very few users have this issue? It sucks, I'm pretty fed up with this (and a bunch of other issues).
Does Android offer a decent integration with hotmail? Does anyone know how Hotmail swings with Android? I see myself giving up on Winmo although I don't like to admit it...
Hotmail drama
I have tried every thing too, I am living in the Middle east and have the same problem. Please any one a solution.
