Yes. See the FAQ entry on Howard Forums - I wrote a piece on how to fix this. I am running the Imate ROM.

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.

MMS config on three networks (Hutchinson Aus)?

Hi Folks,
Just upgraded from an O2 XdA IIs to an iMate JasJar.. Niiiice piece of kit I did the upgrade so I could connect to 3, as they were the only provider that I could find that would let me do a data bundle on my mobile plan (I'm out of the office a lot of the time, so like to get my email via gprs). Anyhoo, everything's working great, except I can't seem to get the right settings for MMS.
So I'm hoping someone here has a universal on 3 here in .au and has MMS working, and can tell me what config they're using..
Thanks,
Damien

G'day Rendrag,
I have seen alot of people having problems with getting 3 MMS to work on their non sold 3 phones, have you checked out the settings here that some people have posted? http://www.aussie3g.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=14311&highlight=3services
I will soon to be investigating this once my m5000 arrives. Apparently everything else works fine on the 3 network.
Cheers

Hi Ahrjay,
Those are the settings I'm using, but sending MMS's just doesn't work.. I've seen plenty of people on aussie3g.com saying they can't get MMS working but there's been no posts about it since february, so I thought I'd post over here incase someone knew
Regards,
Damien

I thought i made a post in here last nite about my problems too, but i dunno what happened, sufficed to say, i like to consider that i have fairly good know how, when it comes to this sort of stuff, and i can't work out, how to send an mms for the life of me...
and i've tried, everything i can think of... i just can get it to work, i hope someone out there can help us out..

FWIW I have been trying for months as well.
I even tried ringing the help number, but the're useless. They ask what phone you have and when its not one of the "three" phones they have no idea what to do.
Perhaps bumping this up to the front page might help.
Jon

Anyone have any success yet????

Not me.. I even went to the trouble of making a bit of a scene at the hutchinson stand at CeBIT the other month over their MMS not working and them not giving a stuff, but the tech guys all ran for cover, and left the sales guys going 'ummm'.

Grr... what the hell is going on?
Surely the phone, is capable of doing it all and then some...
So I have to ask, where is the problem lying? Is it in some sort of I.D. being rejected? Connection settings? Or some sort of software malfunction?
To my understanding, Vodaphone have recently started selling these phones, so i would guess, that they're service is compatiable in every way with the jasjar????

Hmm, might be worth a trip down to the local vodaphone store and have a look at what settings they use, and see if they're anything like what we're trying to use on three?

Hmm... well the settings would be different, as they will all be different server...
I think, it's an I.D. thing personally. I think the JasJar is sending some infomation and 3 is just rejecting the whole mms. But i could be way off, i don't know.
What i'm really curious about, is how vodaphone would support their content service, as i can't think of any way to play RTSP streams on a WM5 device. Which is pretty much how all the content on 3 is streamed, making it in-accessible for all of us with Universal's, and all future WM5 devices....

I think this is a universal 3 network issue for the Universal :shock:
I think it would be good if we discuss this all in one universal "3" thread .....I think this thread is a good one to discuss it in because there are people from other countries on the 3 network also trying to sort out similar issues and there know how is also very helpful.

I've been trying since MAR and no avail. I can "send" MMS to myself and it'll come (so I get the subject header) but when I try to download the actual content it gives some stupid error (the same happens when ppl MMS me - get the header but no content)

Three network
Hi all,
Everyone around the world seem to be having the same issues with the Three network.
I think it might be a good idea if with consolidate all the Three network discussion to one thread. Then maybe if we combine efforts we will find the solutions.
This is the thread I think would be good to move all the discussion to as it already has some good stuff in there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=51646
I hope you think its a good idea too....and we see you in there.

MMS problem on Vodafone UK - please help!

Hi guys,
I consider myself a pretty good with these devices but this one's got me...even the good ol' search facility aint giving me what I need.
Basically I got an unlocked Orange SPV M3100 with a Voda UK contract SIM.
I setup all the connection details and MMS server as i've found on web but also the HTC utility which sets it all up for you. I get the internet ok but no MMS!
'Error synchorizing' or similar is what I get - it doesnt even try to fire up the data connection - immediate response and i've triple-checked the settings for the MMS server. Anyone point me in a better direction?
Much appreciated.

My bet would be the MMS port is wrong, it should be 9201. Has the same problem after using a vodafone settings cab, everything else worked, just no MMS.
Double check your settings against the 2nd post in the thread below, i have used this setup many times and these settings are all 100% right.

Hi mate,
thanks so much for your reply. Still not working but I suspect it's something to do with the new WM6 (LWVS) rom i've got..it doesn't seem to be happy with it.
I've never had a problem before with any other version...weird.

Try Black, ive had no problems on vodafone and im flashing 3.01 as i type. I also find radio 1.40.30.00 works very well on vodafone, get it from the wiki if you havnt already

Just tried Black 3.01 as well and same problem...i must be doing something stupid..i've found several sets of instructions (all the same) and used the HTC utility which installs the settings for you (you select your country and operator) and I still get the same issue.
The thing I find really weird is that the MMS application doesn't seem to even attempt to initiate a data connection - just errors straight away.
I've not flashed back to LWVS Rom as it's my preferred flavour but i've got to be doing something wrong or missing something.
My radio ROM is 1.41.00.10 - not related to that is it? I'm about to try the version our mate has suggested above but if anyone has any other ideas...please do let me know.
Thanks!

It appears i'm a turnip!
It works - now that i've had a test sent to me! But if i manually press send/recieve it errors so probably was working all along! stupid error messages.
Thanks for your help though James - much appreciated.

im having this same problem on tmobile usa. any pointers guys. ever since the first version on wm6 i haven't been able to send or recieve a mms

[Q] Wildfire: No Service

I was wondering if anyone can help me.
I recently flashed my phone which I have done many times. I then installed beautiful widgets from a apk off the net. Once I had decided I likes the software I deinstalled it and ever since I have been unable to get network service on my wildfire.
Whenever I try and connect to a network I get:
'Unable to connect to this network at this time please try later'
I am currently on baseband version 13.53.55.24H_3.35.149.25 but I have also flashed later radios and still have the problem.
I have also checked the phone information settings and radio is turned on so unsure where to go from here.
The phone is also unlocked to any network but I have tried a Orange, Virgin and Vodaphone chip and none work.
Cheers for any help ;-)

i was in touch with beautiful widgets developer a few weeks ago, and he mentioned there were 13 different pirated versions that they were aware of, and they were having troubles with them. the first thing he wanted was my google checkout receipt number, i wonder if you have picked up a virus somehow, with a malicious copy.
have you tried restoring a nandroid backup?

Hi
Yes I ran a nandroid restore and I still have the problem. I have also been into the phone's testing menu, phone information and it wont let me select radio band just comes back Set{Automatic] Unsuccessful ;-(
Tried numerous Roms and still the issue.
Will I have to totally flatten phone to get this working?
cheers

Have you checked your apn settings?

I have checked the APN section and I have one for orange internet and one for Orange MMS. I have looked through these settings and everything is blank except when I get to the MCC section.
One thing I have noticed is when In restore or use a new ROM I still have my details for Wireless setup etc so is it really doing a full wipe of settings?
Cheers guys

I have just spoken to Orange and they have informed me that the phone has been blacklisted hence no service. I have had this phone for over 6 months and now they decide to blacklist it even though I paid good money for it and it wasnt stolen...Nice!!!!!
Thanks for your help anyway guys much appreciated

why has it been blacklisted, and how?

The phone has been blacklisted by Virgin as stolen just recently even though I bought the phone over 5 months ago with original Virgin Chip, booklets etc. I have spoke to Orange (my own network) as the original owner is obviously trying to maker a claim which is indeed false.
I am in process of writing a letter to virgin explaining my predicament but I dont expect anything positive of the outcome. Last time I buy anything of a Forum all my own mistake to be fair!!!
Bought a Samsung I5800 just get me back up and running as the wildfire is now just sat at home awaiting to hear what Virgin say as I may sell it as parts.
cheers guys ;-)
