ok sorry if this is really stupid but i am having problems with MMS - no please dont tut and hit the next post :roll: :lol:
problem - not working - "Dialed:Cannot connect for an unknown reason" - helpful!
things tried :
hard reset (yes left it to load all the O2 junk) still not working
O2_UK.cab from my Himalaya (which works fine on XDAII) downloaded from here ages ago.....no joy there either - do i need a different .cab?
manual settings from O2 website...nope!
anything daft that i have missed? i got this for the wife and its making me look silly :?
why couldnt she just get an XDAII!!! i can get that to work
from what i have read on here by reloading all the O2 rubbish after a hard reset it should have set up the GPRS and MMS but as it hasnt i am wondering if i may have been unlucky and got a corrupted extrom from new? i think it unlikely but O2 havnt registered the IMIE yet for me to be able to download the OS from their website or i would try reloading it.
please tell me i am missing something stupid or i will have to admit defeat and take it back to the shop! :roll:
ohh should add this is an O2 branded XDA mini with WM 2005, i never got MMS to work with WM5 on my XDAII but i figured as this was an official release that MMS "should" work out the box.....was i wrong? do i need to use a work around?
thanks for any help
hmm no replies?
surely someone else has had problems and if not then that would be of help to know :roll:
if there is anyone out there with an o2 uk mini that can confirm that the default from a hard reset gives working MMS with no other user changes then i will at least know that i have a faulty unit/ROM
would be apreciated
Sounds weird, if you have installed all the O2 cabs after a hard reset and it is still not working. In Start-Settings-Connections if you click on Manage existing connections for My Work do you see o2 Active? If that is there, and the settings are present in MMS settings on Pocket Outlook, it should be sending. If not, have you tried reflashing with the launch ROM from the my-xda.com website? It's exactly the same ROM as should be one, but maybe your Extended ROM is misisng something? Sorry I can't be more help, hope you get it sorted.

thanks, yes its a wierd one all right :evil:
all the settings are there and yes i have reloaded all the O2 active junk from a hard reset.
unfortunately as i only bought the phone yesterday the IMIE isn't yet registered with O2 so a cant download the ROM yet :roll:
oh well
thanks for the info at least i can be fairly sure that there is a issue with the device/ROM and its not just me being a plonker! :lol:
If you want the ROM you can get it without entering an IMEI
http://www.my-xda.com/xdaminis_soft3.html
Fin
ok here is the update - and the solution :lol:
1st i got the rom using the IMIE from my phone (they only check the IMIE matches the phone no. - not that it is the correct model)
re flashed the ROM - still no MMS :twisted:
thought for a minute then swapped SIM's and guess what, the plonkers at O2 have for some reason disabled MMS/Data on my wifes SIM!
so for anyone who gets a similar issue call your service provider and make sure the data service has been enabled! - though you might have expected them to have checked that when i first called them with MMS problems yesterday :evil:
hope this might help someone in the future

D'oh! Oh well at least you know it's not your phone and its easily solved.
well i can't believe they (O2) did this, i went through all this when i took out the contract a year ago so i know it was working before the upgrade so they actually disabled this when i upgraded!
its not like you might wand a data service with a device like the wizzard, is it :roll:

Can you point a link to the download that you mention in the FAQ.
I have the updated ROM but unable to get the GPRS working for T-Mobile USA. Many thanks in advance.
alright i got my GPRS back up and running.
i just added a new connection, called it T-MOBLE GPRS and set the access point to internet2.voicestream.com.
most people on this forum mention how this particular ROM seems to run faster, but i havent really noticed any performance increases yet
Possible help GPRS, etc
This might be of benefit to some with the GPRS trouble after update.
1. I did the Imate ROM update and had lots of trouble with GPRS MMS etc..
2. Didn't know how to fix so - I started over...
3. I installed the Qtek ROM and had the same connection issues.
4. Called T-Mobile - got a 3rd level tec and he suggested something I had not heard before. Now keep in mind that I had reset several times hard and soft. He had me go inot Comm and hit the phone icon - and turn it off and on. I am not sure exactly why - but it worked! His explanation was that since I was going back and forth between work and home that the phone (which is supposed to switch automatically didn't and) got locked somehow. I am pretty new to all of this but already did 3 ROM updates - so learning a lot.
5. Now all my connections work the way they are suppose to. Only ONE connection and that is wap.voicestream.com as it should be. My WiFi connection is blazingly fast! I am a happy camper - but I went around and around with this for about 2 days before getting a tec that gave me this advice.
Perhpas someone can tell me which is newer (better) the Qtek or the Imate ROM??
Thanks,
Shep
ok i have searched all over howard forums and here about the GPRS settings for T-Mobile USA.
in one particualr post it mentions you have to set the appropriate access point for your type of internet service. Personally, i have the T-Mobile total internet for $29.99.
I have applied both of these setting as my access point
internet2.voicestream.com and wap.voicestream.com
both of these settings allowed me to connect to the GPRS network, so i guess my question is which setting should i be using????
T-Mobile is shipping all these devices with wap.voicestream.com, and has opened the ports for people on the "real" internet service using it.
If you use "internet2", you will have problems with MMS, since you can't send MMS through that AP. There are workarounds for this but they are messy. My recommendation is that you use wap.
Here is what I've done so far. Anyone with experience or anyone who has successfully gotten their setup to work, please chime in !
1. Install the JASJAM_WWE_1.20.305.3_1.20.305.104_1.07.03.10_ship.exe rom. Test. Works fine when connected by USB, syncs to any Exchange server with no problem.
However, When I try to sync to any Exchange Server or a different Exchange server through the GPRS connection, it sits on "Synchronizing folders", then "Looking for Changes" and finally after a few minutes of doing nothing, it just gives up and goes back to "Waiting for network".
2. As a test, I've tried to install a different ROM. This time ME_DT_WWE_1182553_106_10303_Ship.exe. Now when I try to connect to the GPRS connection, it retries the dial twice, then it "Dialed : open.softbank.ne.jp. Cannot connect for an unknown reason. Check your connection settings, etc.". This is after installing the SoftBank extended ROM and doing a hard reset, which worked fine for the previous i-mate ROM.
Anyone have any suggestions or ideas?
logimob
Wireless OK
After doing some more testing, and changing back to the original i-mate ROM, it seems to sync to Exchange just fine using a Wireless connection.
However going back to GPRS, and it's back to doing exactly the same "synchronising folders"/"looking for changes".
To this date, I have never had a successful GPRS sync - has anyone else?
Japan users?
There are no Japan users with SoftBank GPRS ActiveSync working....?
Hi there, Andrew (you sent him an email) point me to this thread, and will try to reply here. Actually I didn't flash my X01HT yet, but I use Exchange daily on my HTC Mteor and HTC Universal with open.softbank.ne.jp, it works flawlessly. I am waiting for HTC Taiwan to send me back my HTC Hermes (Dopod) back from reparation to try.
But ! Even with my X01HT in Japanese I have sometimes difficulties to connect to the internet and I also have the same error as yours. So this is not really only a ROM issue here.
Now I hard reseted my X01HT and soft reset it before installing the Extended ROM, so there, I do not have any Softbank crap installed my my device and once the open.soft... stuff set I have no problem neither.
Finally I know that some ROM are not Japanese network friendly, for example on my HTC Universal, with an iMATE ROM, I cannot place any Video call, nor access to my voice mailbox correctly, I can dial 1416, but when I want to access to my voice mail... it doesn't work.
Now on ALL my device here in Japan I only install a Dopod ROM, they are, as far as I am concerned the best ROM ever made and with them EVERYTHING WORKS, and I will strongly advise you to try to install a Dopod Rom on your Hermes. If you do not have it on the FTP, I have one on my desktop at the office that HTC Taiwan sent me (HER_DopodAsia_1237074_1060010_WWE_SHIP)
Fantastic, I'll try to install the rom at www.dopodasia.com/download/HER_DopodAsia_1237074_1060010_WWE_SHIP.exe
and see how I go. Thanks very much for your help and ideas.
Sorry to hear about your sick HTC Hermes!

After flashing the Hermes with the new Dopod image, it keeps giving me a
Network Wizard error.
I tried adding the open.softbank.ne.jp settings, but it didn't work.
Then I replaced the Extended ROM with the Softbank Extended ROM. Then the settings for SoftBank were automatically configured - but don't work. It says "the current connection cannot be used for your request". Also, the network wizard comes up every soft reset and says "Your current operator (44020) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor".
This is kind of confusing - do you have any advice? Did you use the Extended ROM as it was?
Thanks very much for your help
"Your current operator (44020) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor".
Do not worry for that I have the same problem.
Now you are telling me that you cannot login at all, cannot surf at least the internet?
Just a quick thought... my SBS do not have a real SSL, this is a SBS SSL, so when I quote the box SSL connection in my Mteor or Hermes... it won7t work... try to unquote this box...
Hi there,
Thanks for your reply. I've been messing around on this all night/all day again, and I've made some slow painful progress!
Firstly, I'm glad you had the same problem. Now I'm reassured that the problems are not related.
Next up, I've been trying to get the internet working. I managed to get it to connect before, but whenever I tried to access any site through IE, I got the error "エラーが発生しました。リクエストが不正です。 wj46000e".
I have since done a few hard-resets, and now it doesn't connect, despite me putting in the connection details 10's of times. I now get the error "Dialed : open.softbank.ne.jp. Cannot connect for an unknown reason"
Did you ever have these kinds of problems?
What kind of extended rom are you using? I just copied and pasted the whole Softbank Extended ROM, which worked perfectly on the JASJAM ROM.
If you have any ideas, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks very much

I also get this error while ago... actually the first time I had my X01HT and with the Japanese ROM.
I really do not know what is going on with your device, I just hardreset my HTC Universal and put ALL the setting by hands, NO cab from crap Softbank, and it WORKS !
We should maybe meet one day, and try to let me see your device...
Fantastic - you're really giving me hope that one day soon I'll have a fully functioning device!!
I'll try restoring the original Extended ROM and inputting all the settings manually again. Hopefully it'll work this time.
I'd love to meet up for a chat and a show and tell session! I'd like to see your fully functioning device. Send me a private msg and I'll reply with my Skype/Email address.

Ok Will PM U, but just for reference I flash back my Universal to its orginal ROM and not the 1.90 that we can found here, and straight after the flashing, I put manually the Softbank setting and... WORKS ! I am sure you made a mistake somewhere this is not possible otherwise
Ah ok I see... so you installed your original ROM. Is that available for download anywhere? I'd like to replicate your setup as closely as possible.

I just tried installing the other Dopod ROM - with exactly the same results. "cannot connect for an unknown reason". This same stuff worked perfectly on the JASJAM ROM, so I am starting to think these problems are somehow ROM related.
Where did you get your ROM from again?

This is a Rom for my universal, not my Hermes, My Hermes with a Dopod rom will be sent back to me today. And since my wife want to use the Japanese X01HT I didn't flash it to US... anyway let's meet and check this out.
Guys, are you using the standard Softbank PC Site Direct connection?
If so, you'll never get Exchange Activesync working unless you uncheck the box for "This server requires SSL" AND the Exchange administrator has configured the system to allow non-SSL connections.
Softbank's "open.softbank.ne.jp" connection is anything BUT open. They are doing port blocking and currently appear to only allow port 80, 25, 110 unless you use Pocket IE. This means that ActiveSync and most IM applications fail.
Softbank is reported to say that they plan to begin supporting Exchange ActiveSync "sometime in December" - until then, the port is closed and there is nothing you can do to make it work.
The workaround is to use [email protected] (but this can get very expensive). [email protected] does not have any port blocking.
Anybody heard any updates as to when Softbank will stop blocking the ssl port for Exchange ActiveSync? Still scheduled for sometime in December? This is killing me . . . so stupid that they would do something like this but so typical.
I will die and rot away before these bastards open up SSL...

I have been looking through the Japanese sites as well but haven't seen anything. I just keep testing every day. Frigging bastards... I told my Exchange and networking team in the US about it and they had never heard of a Windows Mobile device that was blocked from syncing with Exchange SSL over the wireless.
I have a friend in Korea though with a Samsung WM5 device - his works with Exchange but other ports are blocked so he can't use IM apps. So Japan mobile providers are even more backwards than in Korea.
Hi, hope this issue has been solved already but just in case:
Softbank open APN open.softbank.ne.jp *did not* allow SSL port to go through, so you needed to turn off SSL mode of ActiveSync.
It seems, though, since a few days ago, Softbank opend almost all ports for APN open.softbank.ne.jp thus you should be able to use SSL ActiveSync without problems.

Glad to hear it worked. Now my interest is how Softbank is going to treat PC users trying to use X01HT as a wireless modem. I personally hope they provide unlimited usage for $80-$90 per month... (after April)

SPV M600 and Vodafone MMS settings
Hello
I'm going crazy trying to get MMS to work but everything I've tried has failed so far.
I know GPRS is working because I can setup a GPRS connection that I can happily use to browse the internet using pocket IE and also send and receive emails from several POP accounts I've setup in the email app. Also, the Vodafone contract SIM I have came straight out of a Nokia N70 that had no problem sending and receiving picture messages and is actually 3G enabled.
I've followed just about every forum 'try this' instruction I've found but nothing. Calling Vodafone customer service was about as much use as a chocolate teacup as they wanted me to give them a make and model so they could send me a service message but for obvious reasons, the Orange SPV M600 was not one of them. How did you get anything useful out of them?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

have pm u m8 and still no reply? Anybody got a cab for this or can direct me to one? Have installed a cab thta I found somewhere but phone still has orange settings on it?
Roughneck
Afternoon to you all. Its my first post here so please be gentle.
I used to be on Esato and Im frequently on o2 forum so If i can help in any way i will always try to.
However I do need some help if possible and possible a cab to resolve the issue.
I have got a O2 HD2 rom 1.43.
Its unlocked from o2 and Ive no major issues with the rom at all (all recent updates installed from htc)
However o2 has kindly modified the Connection Setup cab in the settings menu.
When you click on it, you get uk and iom and thats it.
If you pick UK you get o2 only
If you pick IOM, again you get IOM network settings.
Is it possible that some one can extract the propper HTC Setup Cab which i think is 3.1? which has all countries and networks.
At present ive managed to use a version from the HTC Diamond, but this is ver 1.5 and for some reason is very very slow, but does have most of the networks, but not all.
I would be really greatful if some one could help and post it for me.
I know i could use put generic rom on, but im not sure why, but i like my o2 logo (Sad i know )
Thanks in advance for your help.
Update.
When i installed version 1.5 from the diamond my MMS stops working completely. When I have removed it too, It goes back to the orginal 3.1 but again no MMS any more
There is a network connection cab somewhere round here, as i used it for my o2 hd2 to get t-mobile UK settings.
Though i had to search the interent to get the MMS server settings, as it doesn't change that.
i cant find any cab for hd2. i can for diamond. ive got my mms working by removing version 1.5 but was hoping that someone had extracted the hd2 version from the hd2 rom. i tried 2 different versions of 1.5 and it can take on average 20 secs to even geg into the connection settings.
did the one in my pm not work?

Glad to hear it worked.
Can you please share me the Connection Set up cab
Hi,
Just saw your post after searching a lot on the internet. I also seem to have a same problem. I have a HTC-HD2 from t-mobile which is unlocked, howevere I'm unabke to change the connection settings as it does not give me an option other than "t-mobile.
Any help in rectifying the above problem will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
