Sick And Tired Of Bad Connection Settings! - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE HELL I'M DOING WRONG!
This always happens to me! To be quite honest, I wish I understood Cingular/AT&T or even more so the WINDOWS MOBILE 5 AND 6 CONNECTION SETTINGS and HOW TO CONFIGURE THEM PROPERLY! I just don't get it! I'm a well educated and very experianced Microsoft Network and Systems administrator for a LIVING!!! and this is like STUPID for me!
someone please help me out.
I'm in New York on AT&T's network with the 8525. I am an accomplished ROM Flasher and I am on Schap's WM6 v4.30
As usual, as soon as I flash, internet explorer works and i go to configure my pop gmail and it successfully get the gmail settings. go to connect for the first time to download my mail and it fails.... i tried to installed the cab called Cingular WAP MEdiaNet MMS Settings v2 and that doesnt work. it just adds the MEdia Net as an optional connection. I used to use the wpbear thing to get the proxy remove and restore things.. still nothing! so now i have a freaking interview tomorrow and its 1 am and im still ....ing around with the damn thing and i dont have internet, mail or connectivity to anything!!!
theres ISP, WORK and MEDIA NET... what the hell are any of these things?! i need a stupid tutorial to explain the most basic freaking thing on a pocket pc phone!
frustrated is NOT the word... ready to throw the phone out my 2nd story window as far as i can is more like it!
Schap's.. great job on the new rom.. i love it as i have loved all the others.. but this stupid at&t settings is KILLING ME!
*update* its 1:30 and im still futzing with this thing.. I used the REMOVE PROGRAMS icon and uninstalled the wpbear and cingular wap settings. i got INTERNET EXPLORER BACK but i cant get mail to work. it says Error Syncronizing. and then the typical message "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings."
In Network Management i have programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using: MEdia Net
Programs that automatically connecto to a private network should connect using: My ISP
I only have this problem with my gmail accounts. YES i have them set to pop online. hotmail and windows live works fine.

had the same problem
What i had to do was goto connections >> connections
Advanced tab
Selecy Networks
Click the drop down, Media net should be fine
IE if you goto edit it says wap.cingular
Now hit that drop down and goto my isp
And you have to change the APN to wap.cingular
then on the username/pass screen
username: [email protected]
password: CINGULAR1
domain leave blank and hit OK
and VIOLA!!!
You are back in business
Its actually in ATT's forum help somwhere
EDIT: heres the link https://cingular.atgnow.com/cng/tutorials/KB71267.html

same problem
the way that windows mobile organizes connections is completely ilogical -- to me anyways
i am baffled..gmail will not work, same error, been going on for months now, ever since i got my device
skype will not work, same error, "cannot connect with current settings"
everything else works..
WTF IS "My ISP" and "The Internet" and "Media Net"
why are there 3 connections for the same exact god damn thing?
Should i just delete everything except for Media net?
Then maybe it will be FORCED to use it..god
I have tried doing these steps from the above post but nothing has changed
==============
update: skype now works, gmail still will not work
update2: Gmail works when wifi is on, still not over 3g
What i would really like to know is why the connections are organized this way, so maybe that will lead me to the root of the problem itself

WiFi and proxy

Hello,
I have HTC Touch, and I'm trying to connect to wifi with ISA proxy.
First, I connected to home wifi (no proxy) and accessed internet without problem.
At work we have Radius etc. but I also connected, and I can surf to pages inside company (no need for proxy), but I can't get out to internet.
Any suggestion would be great!
tnx
small update: looks like I was surfing at work through usb cable, not wifi. But now I can't even connect to wifi at work, which I could before. Funny things going on, I'll reset.
Update2:
Newest status is: wifi connected, can surf internal sites, but can't go outside company network.
I suspect that IE is not going through the proxy at all. Which implicates that I don't know how to setup IE to use proxy on WM6???
If you edit "My Work Settings" thru Settings -> Connections -> Connections you can edit the proxy settings there. Then you say "connect to internet" thru "My Work Settings". I may be wrong, but I think you need to reset the pda as well...
OK, here are my settings:
under settings-connections-connections, advanced - select networks:
"Programs that automatically connect to Internet should connect using:" My Work Network.
When I click Edit, under Modem, there are no entries.
Under Proxy settings, "This network connects to internet" and "this network uses a proxy.." are both checked.
"Proxy server" field is disabled.
Under Advanced:
Socks line has serverort next to it. Others are empty. Server and port are good.
I click ok on all and go to IE. Type www.google.com, it says "Locating.." and that's all. Internal web sites are opening ok.
I tried to turn it off, and back on.
Tried google, not working.
I checked all settings once again and tried then, still nothing.
This is a common problem and I have not found a solution for it myself yet.
The proxy settings are lost when you apply them, and the SOCKS server settings behaves weirdly.
Anyone knows what can be done?
i want to know how to do this too... my school is also using the same system.
still no update
no update ??
configfree from Toshiba
Dear,
I had an old E800 from toshiba where configfree is installed. With this program I can configure proxy for wifi in 10 sec and it works.
does someone know where we can find this program for other PDA. I want to try it on my Cruise.
Vincent
I'm also having the same issue. Can anyone help, please?
From my experiences I can tell you: THERE IS NO WAY TO MAKE HTC AND HTTP PROXY FOR WIFI RUN. Neither with WM6.0 nor 6.1 nor a special brand nor the original firmware.
I have tried to inform HTC support, but I'm extremely pessemistic, that at least one will care. It seems to be not a WM related problem, because my WM6 ASUS doesn't have that issue.
There is a work around for browsers only: Don't use Pocket IE, use Minimo, because this browswer has it's own proxy setup. But it doesn't help you much, if you want to use other applications.
EDIT: Just to inform you, what happens, if you upgrade to WM6.1: The proxy settings are kept (HURRRAY) ---- but ignored completely It's _that_ brain damaged...
Regards

I can confirm the same "symptoms": proxy is totally being ignored on WM6.1. However, they're kept when you close the settings.

Proxy over WiFi works for me and has done with my previous HTC Wizard and now with my Kaiser. I have checked with a sniffer that I am definitely using the proxy over port 8080 (MS ISA 2006).
I have explained this before but this is how my device is setup.
ActiveSync/Windows Mobile Device Centre - Connection Settings set to 'This computer is connected to: Work Network' - Setting this to Automatic or The Internet deletes any Proxy Settings on the device when you connect it.
WiFi. My home WiFi SSID Network set to 'Connects to: Work'
Connections. 'Tasks' tab - Two settings 'My ISP' & 'My Work Network'. Advanced Tab, Select Networks. Top settings 'Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using: My ISP'. Bottom settings 'Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using: My Work Network'. Under 'My ISP' I have the GPRS details for my carrier (Vodafone). Under 'My Work Network' I have a proxy defined with the Advanced settings configured - HTTP set to my proxy with the port 8080 and Socks set to my proxy with port 1080.
That's it and has worked for me since Windows Mobile 6.0 appeared for the Wizard. I used the same settings when I first got my Kaiser with WM 6.0 and now with WM 6.1 (more or less stock 5.2.19212) and it has worked every time.

There are too many wifi connection in the present. But the best thing is to choose the right one. Can you tell me to choose the right one with no Proxy service. Thanks

[Updated]AT&T SETTINGS FOR DUMMYS

Your done with the internet settings
Select MEdia Net then its totally done and to test it out go to
http://device.home/(It wouldn't normally work with out the proxy settings)
Well, I found them.
It's all over Howardforums.com for years if you'd search there.
I searched and nothing. But this is help full for people on here too.

Am sure a few lazy so and so's like...erm me (sometimes) will find this useful. Maybe put some other settings up on this post for other operators. Perhaps worth a look around via search first as its likely to be something that someones already done. But can't be sure.

Why not just use a .cab to do it automatically?
This is the one I've been using:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=67434&d=1201326345
Also, I recently found out I could add MediaNet under My ISP. So now if I have Wifi on, it'll use Wifi. Otherwise it'll use MediaNet.
I had MediaNet seperate so I kept having to change it. Much better this way.

This is something that I've been trying to figure out for a while. How do you add MediaNet under My ISP. I would love to be able to be on the WIFI while at work and then change to ISP when I leave.
thanks,

I am also very curious about this.

With My ISP selected, click "Edit." Then click "New..." at bottom and enter in the MEdiaNet stuff.
Thanks alot for the info. I was having trouble accessing Cingular Video after flashing to Duttys rom.
i was very confused about this and erased all of the connections
why is there Media Net and AT&T ISP GPRS?
I know this is supposed to be for *dummies*
so i guess i am one
But what's the reasoning behind needing two of them?

One is Media Net Access(and the whole internet) and the other one is for tethering.
5 stars!
Thanks, this helped a lot. Now to figure out how to tell my cooked 6.1 ROM that I am on AT&T and not roaming. Seems to be a bug on every 6.1 ROM I have flashed.
WORKS GREAT Thank You!!!

Have you tried searching for the settings in this forum?
It is the only way to learn.
Are there any new settings for at&t? I want to update this.
I was hoping someone would figure out how to manually select a tower in AT&T.

I am not sure if there is anything new but this didn't work for me. I tried this on my Tilt 2 flashed with Sergio76's The Cell ROM v9.5 AT&T (just has the AT&T dialer and nothing else AT&T). I had used a cab that fixed all of the settings to what's in the post except the AT&T ISP which I took care of no problem. However, when I go to Media Mall and search for an app, I'm told there are no results for my handset. I looked at the device ident in the settings and the IMEI is there but the s/n is wiped and I can't edit it. Maybe with a regedit...I dunno. I haven't had the time to try that. It was an idea. There's something that was wiped off the phone that identified my device to AT&T...maybe some sort of hidden proxy or certificate or simply the s/n. I haven't found any Tilt 2 users so far that are able to or even use the Media Mall so I dunno. If anyone else knows something or has figured this out please clue me in. I wouldn't mind being able to get back to the media mall.
Thanks for any help...

Payandgo O2 3G/GPRS Problem

I've been searching for days to get my internet working on my mobile,
im using a Payandgo O2 Stellar (aka Kaiser) phone
Using these settings..
Access Point: payandgo.o2.co.uk

Username: payandgo
Password: password
DNS: 193.113.200.200
Alt DNS: 193.113.200.201
And basically i cant go on MSN / Google etc, but i can view the O2 website (and some O2 based links from that website), if i try togo anywhere else i get a message saying:
"The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost. Check the connection & try again later."
I've wrote emails etc to O2 but no replys yet, few friends are looking for ways to fix it but not getting any closer to resolving it so was wondering if anyone here has any ideas?

You are now ready to surf o2 pay as you go GPRS full internet, but you will not be able to use outlook and MSN. However, it's still OK. To open MSN you can download Agile messenger. To access your email, just use the web access. You can only use 5MB for free on O2 PAYG. After that you will be charged.
Wow! it works woohoo, thanks m8 yeah ur right i should have searched but ive been searching multiple websites for days! about ready to hang myself lol
and thanks for the Agile messenger thing, main reason i want to net is to be able to use MSN Messenger so im glad that'll do it ^^
Edit:
Cant get MSN or Agile to connect, net seems to work fine though... ill see if i can find some alternatives
Wow, have also just got a new smartphone, yesterday. Contacted o2 for settings and was given only half the story. Could only get at stuff via wsp and even then loads of links didn't work properly.
Tried your settings and yipee.
Ta a bunch.

o2 settings
hey people, i have a quick way to configure wm handsets for o2 data and mms without having to enter in all the settings - install the cab attached...you should get an o2 icon in the start menu, select it and configure. you may have to reboot your mobile quickly to set it up but mine started working immediately - it hadnt even finished installing and ms exchange was already downloading my mail
btw these settings work for payandgo
Thanks for the CAB settings, worked a treat on my Kaiser on O2 pay and go. Spent 20 mins arguing with o2 customer services telling me i had to be contract in order to enable GPRS on my phone !
What a set of loosers, maybe i should email them and send them to this post ;-)
Thanks again !!
Thank You!
Thank you so much or the settings!! I needed them for my job and was starting to think i'd have to get a new phone. I spent over an hour arguing with "customer services" with them telling me i had to be contract in order to enable GPRS on my phone and you proved them wrong! They said because the phone was contract they said there was no way that this could be done.
Thank God i looked it up on the internet and found you can do it and with ease!!!
So thank you millions! Because now i can send and receive picture messages and also go online! I can not thank you enough!!!
I previously was only aware of settings available for WM PDA's to allow MMS and nothing more. I had the required settings for MMS before, but when upgrading to a new ROM I lost them. Used the same settings but this time, they wouldn't work! Just found this thread, now I can send/receive MMS + I can now browse the internet! THANK YOU!!!!!

Great job, jaymit. i haven't tried this cab, but mine was set the same as above and working, except it doesn't allow download data (such as weather updates on today screen), direct push email (IMAP excahnge) or internet sharing. does your cab setting allow these? thanx.
still nothing
hey, just installed cab file... and still nothing... can't send mms
i've been losing hope for sorting out it
works now i'm such a noob(ie)

Thanks very much indeed for this cab file. At last my HTC Advantage (WM6) will access the web over the 'phone network. I've tried for months to get sense out of o2 to no avail. Either they told me that O2 didn't support the Advantage or the settings I was given didn't work!

You are a star my friend. Out of interest though.... 5MB, in terms of browsing on my phone.... how much is that? How many pages do you think I can view before this 5MB is taken up?
Is this 5MB limit per month as well?

Works great on my hermes also, many thanks perfect fix for my issues.

The problem with the .cab attached is that it uses the proxy that blocks email or has for me when used:

With settings in this thread can't get MMS to work gotta be a way "but if i have to choose email or MMS" i know email is the more used

Getting this also (on WM6.1/Samsung OmniaII). Followed both guides and tried all sorts of combinations (even the idata.o2.co.uk that the iphone uses) and still no luck. These settings are specified for the proxy'd "work" connection. "Direct Internet" works fine with AS.

I have a Vodafone branded X1 which I'm using with my T-Mobile sim. I have gone into the registry and unlocked the default connections (My ISP and WEB) and changed them to work with T-Mobile.
Opera, panels, IE and comm manager connect fine.
Messaging (Email), Windows Live, and Messenger all say they cannot connect (It doesn't even look like they try and connect)
It appears they have been set to only work with Vodafone's default settings, is there anywhere i can modify to make these work?
when you edited WEB and My ISP did you untick the connect to internet via proxy option? but leave this connection connects to internet checked
hotmail etc is working on my phone and the only changes i've made are the ones i gave you on the other thread, except I'm on o2.
Yep, I did all that and I still get problems, the message I get from Windows Live is "Windows Live was unable to establish an Internet connection. Please check your Internet settings and make sure that you have access to data services under your billing plan. If you need help, please contact your mobile service provider."
It doesn't even try to use the My ISP or WEB connections before it shows that message.
...
i had a similiar problem where only opera connected and not msn.
I removed all connections completely (do not only edit them) and restart and recreate.
then it started to work again..
ried removing all the connections completely and I still get the same issues with mail and messenger.
It looks to me like they aren't even trying to look for, or establish a connection before throwing the error
that's exactly how it looked to me, when I was trying to fix it last night. then it all fell into place. it almost looked like it new it wasn't going to work and couldn't be bothered trying! I think the last thing I did was disable connecting by proxy on the WEB connection.
I promise you it is something wrong with your settings and not with Live or Messaging.
I've tried everything I think I can with the connection settings, can you list your settings please eyebeebe?
I assume you're using these settings:
GPRS APN address: general.t-mobile.uk
Gateway (IP) address :149.254.1.10 (alt: 149.254.201.132)
Username : user (alt: wapuser)
Password: wap
Session type: Continuous / permanent
Port number: 8080 (alt: 9201)
Authentication: Normal
Is your Artemis on T-mobile? Can you mirror it's settings? For example you made need to connect via proxy and enter the Gateway IP address as above if you haven't already.
If you've done that already send me a PM and we can go through my settings on MSN...

US T-Mobile 3g Internet settings wrong? NOT WORKING

before i had my 3g internet running fine but my nephew got a hold of my phone and all of my T-Mobile Internet number and proxy is cleared. Does anyone know the correct T-Mobile settings for ACCESS POINT NAME and/or proxy server settings?
Also, my NETWORK MANAGEMENT is set to T-Mobile Internet then MY WORK NETWORK. is this right?
EDIT: for T-Mobile Internet I have the dialing number as "epc.tmobile.com" and the proxy server is "127.0.0.1"
for My Work Network the number is "7202542831" and there's no proxy server.
epc.tmobile.com
Uncheck the proxy server option there (under "T-Mobile Internet"), tmo doesn't use one.
The "My Work Network" settings really don't come into play for your regular data connections, so don't worry about those.
I am having problems where I get randomly booted off the network when trying to send/receive non-Outlook emails (yahoo, hotmail, etc) it tells me "error synchronizing" then takes me to the Connections settings tab. How do I fix this so it doesn't keep doing it?
OK, so I click "send/receive" in my Inbox, and a window pops up that says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connections settings, tap Settings."
So I tap settings, which takes me to a screen showing my existing connection profiles. T-Mobile Internet with the number "epc.tmobile.com" is active and the only one listed. So I click "edit", asks for a name, I'll leave it at "T-mobile internet". Select a modem is grayed out with Cellular line (GPRS) selected. I click "next"...asks for access point name with the epc.tmobile.com already in the box so I leave that alone and click "next"...now it asks for user name, password, and domain...all are blank...
It really does seem arbitrary...can't think of any apps I'm using at the same time...most of the time, just resetting it back to the same settings takes care of it.
This is the only recurring error I have with my stock HD2 and I would really like to fix this once and for all...
HELP???
Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
Go look for the HTC connection wizzard cab for download. Install and run this and it will fix your settings for you.
if that didnt work and your still getin booted off even though there is no password, still check the save password box in the settings. Then go into your connection manager a turn on your data manually. using "wap.voicestream.com" seems to work better for my sweet ass. but it just depends on what part of hell your in.
OK this is my only gripe with my HD2...connection and network.
Now, since I got back from a trip where I was on roaming, my email will not work. Every time I click send/receive, it gives me a "synchronization error" and takes me to the Connections Settings menu. I have it on "auto pick", and wap.voicestream.com and epc.tmobile.com as the choices, but still will not work. I tried the connection wizard on here also and still have this issue.
Help?
EDIT: Nevermind, going to the email settings and swtiching from T Mobile Internet to T Mobile Data in advanced settings fixed it. Now all 5 of my accounts are synching just fine over 3G.
