Hi everybody!
I've just register to this cool forum but I've been reading the threads for a time now!
I don't have the solution to your Gprs problem sorry, but I cannot connect to the wap over Gprs and I have no error message when I connect to the Gprs.
I'am now using rom 1.12 FR and removed the extended rom.
If someone could help me to fix this problem, it would just be great.
Thanks a lot.
first check if you have set properly connection settings

remember that using WAP services on pocket internet explorer you have to use wsp:// instead of http:// at the beginning of every WAP adress

What about WAP sites that begin with http:// ? I cant seem to connect to those, cause when I insert http the explorer reads it as a normal webpage, and its a WAP page
I've got GPRS and WiFi working perfectly.
However, everytime I switch between WiFi and GPRS, I got to reentern/remove the proxy server.
My GPRS REQUIRES the use of the proxy, so there's no going around that, and there are no unlimited data plans on the non-proxy access point [face_cry]
I've looked through both HowardForums (where I am from, I've been a Symbian user until now) and here for already existing info.
Aside from finding tons of people who couldnt get the wifi to work because of the proxy, none of those threads gave a solution that included KEEPING the proxy server for GPRS.
If there is a thread with the information to get WiFi to NOT use the GPRS proxy, just link me to the thread and Ill figure out the rest on my own
Thnx! Hope I'll get my post count increased fast so I'm not considered as a post-and-leave user.
of course u can keep the the proxy server for GPRS and surf the internet via wifi ~~
but pity that my device's interface is in chs & my broken english
(if i misunderstand ur thread,dont brick me )
u can fix it ,follow below
start menu--setting---connection--connetion,or u can see my device' captures pic1
(i dont really sure if ur device is that path,i just translated it from chinese to english)
select the icon in green (pic1)
a new window like pic2,just do it
and the key step in pic3:
the two places in red circle
dont select ur wap setting ,select my isp or my network is ok
when u want to connect internet via gprs,u rechange to ur gprs setting
enjoys
oh I understand what you mean. Yes that way I dont have to retype my proxy addresses.
Sadly, it's still not automated from what I see
I'll have to make a shortcut for that section.
Thanks woohyuksheng!
Cingular proxy cabs
Cingular has a set of cab files that enable/disable the proxy settings. if you search this forun you will find then. they are also in the latest cingular rom, black 3.0, and custel 1.3.
if you are not on cingular you could try and edit the cab files with your carrier info.
give it a try.

It didnt work for me. I'll explain below, but first I want to say I found my own fix. (however, it sucks to switch my fix back and forth)
Woohyuksheng's trick didn't do anything either.
My fix for WiFi usage
Thanks JCB Dalek!
All I needed was to add DNS addresses for my Wifi adapter and to EnableAutoDetect=1
Ignore this , I changed everything I said
Hi all,
I don't know weho else to turn to, I have extinguished all of my resources, with no luck you guys are my last hope with this issue.
when I try to use external programs like Skype or windows update on the device, it tells me to check my internet setting. BUT the internet explorer works great and I am able to use high speed internet.
As soon as I try to access internet form a 3rd pary software it won't let me.
If any one knows what this thing is all about, please help me resolve this issue.
Many thanx in an advance,
Genek.
perhaps try disabling the at&t proxy, that seems to work for me in some programs....
Start>Settings>Connections Tab>Connections>Advanced Tab
then click Select Networks, if MEdia Net is selected in the top dropdown list, click edit, and go to proxy settings tab and uncheck "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
Warning...if u disable the proxy you wont be able to receive mms messages until you re-enable the proxy...if you need to re-enable it, its "wireless.cingular.com"
Thank you so much. The problem was that I had the proxy server entered wrong. I had as "wireless.cingular" for some reason, all I did was ad ".com" and everything worked with proxy enabled.
Thank you,
Genek
Hey all
I have been using Palringo for a while now and I was tired of waiting for them to add a way where I could use a proxy server (T-Zones) or Wifi.
In order to do this you would have to access the registry and some users don't want to do that. So I created a quick application to take care of this.
I hope it's useful for someone.
This application requires .NET 3.5
UPDATED:
I found a minor UI update issue.
thanks...
I'll give it a look, thanks!
i tried it and now i cant connect to palringo lol...not sure if have cf net 3.5 tho, i think i have only 2.0 NET version

That's strange. All the application does is set the registry settings that palringo uses to connect through a proxy server.
Are you able to access the registry?
If so locate the following:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Parlingo\Settings] (These are the values used for US T-Zones Proxy)
Key="Connection/Proxy/Host" Value="216.155.165.50"
Key=Connection/Proxy/Port" Value="8080"
Key="Connection/Proxy/Type" Value="1"
NOTE: (The above settings are for US T-Zones Proxy only)
You should see these settings. If you set "Connection/Proxy/Type" ="0" That will allow you to use your Wifi connection.
^thanx i'll try that fix when im not lazy , i don't really use palringo much
can u make so that i can enter a proxy usernameassword inputs???
do u think ur prog will make palringo connect if it uses the wap port 80 to connect?
i can only surf the goam.com rogers APN thru a proxy server and i don't think palringo can connect

You don't need the wap user/pass on goam.com for the proxy.
Ip address : 172.25.0.107
Port : 80

If you are using a proxy server that uses port 80, all you need to do is set the port to 80 and set the host address of your proxy server and your good to go. Palringo will use your predefined connection to access the internet which will handle your connection to the proxy server.
Just wondering whether anyone is able to get it to work with Rogers goam.com APN?
I have created the 3 new keys in the registry, and I tried all the combinations of different ports and proxy type.
If anyone is able to get it to work, can you please post your setup here?
Thanks!
Hello!
I own a htc diamond and want to access a wifi network that's using a HTTP proxy. I can connect to the network itsself. However, the proxy settings aren't applied or sometimes deleted when I disactivate and reactivate wifi. When I try it at home, it can still access the internet even if I set the proxy server. (I don't have a proxy server at home, so it shouldn't work then...)
With a iPod Touch/iPhone the following settings work:
Server: server-01.hak-reutte.ac.at
Port: 8080
I also have to authenticate using an username and password, but I think there's also a web form so it's not necessary to configure that in the proxy configuration.
Thank you,
Simon

If you use ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Centre verify the connection settings are NOT set to automatic. If they are then the Proxy settings are overwritten each time you connect to your PC to sync. If you want to use a proxy over WiFi then you need to make sure your 'Work' connection settings specify the proxy and you need to configure the WiFi settings to 'Connects to Work' (or whatever it says, but NOT 'Internet').
Andy
Hi ADB100!
Thanks for your answer. The problem occurs even when I'm not connected to ActiveSync. Somehow the proxy server is reset when the WLAN is used. I tried the application WmWifiProfiles, but the problem is still there. When I set the proxy server and exit the settings application, the settings for HTTP proxy are somehow not saved. (When I reopen the settings dialog, the http proxy setting is blank, but the proxy for socks is still there.)
Regards,
Simon

Do you have proxy auto-discovery on?
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
EnableAutoDetect=00000001
If its set to 1 then proxy auto-discovery is enabled, 0 is disabled.
I have no idea if it is this but worth a shot?
Andy
Hi ADB100!
AutoDetect wasn't acticated. (The key didn't exist.) I tried creating the key with value 0 and 1, but didn't help.
I think this must be a bug, because there are a lot of topics about this problem. Unfortuntatly, nobody seems to have a solution for this problem .
I tried changing the registry keys in HKLM/Comn/ConnMgr/Providers/. That worked, because the internet connection was dead then . I think it's possible to work around the problem by changing this keys. I will try that next week and when that really fixes the problem, I'll probably release an application for it.
However, do have some ideas left?
Thanks,
Simon
Bizarre....
I have never seen this on any of the Windows Mobile PDA's I have had.
I know if the connection settings: 'This computer is connected to:' are set to anything other than 'Automatic' then it resets any proxy you configure. I have mine set to 'Work Network' and the settings are never overwritten. I use a proxy at home and remember playing around with these settings as I had similar issues initially.
I know there is a known issue of the 'Hidden Proxy' if you let the device configure itself using the 'Connection Setup'. I have never let my device do this and have manually configured the HSDPA/GPRS settings.
Andy
Hi ADB100!
I've also aborted the connection setup, cause I didn't want my device to use HSDPA automatically.
I'm not 100% sure but I think my old device (HTC S730) had also some problems with the proxy, but I was able to solve them. Maybe it's also a problem with my ROM.
How stable/fast are the current RC builds of 6.5? Are they ready for every day use?
Thank you,
Simon

I haven't tried any 6.5 ROMs for any period of time as they all seemed too buggy. I am on an almost stock 5.2.19212 ROM that I have lightly customised in a kitchen and I am happy with it.
Andy
This is really annoying... When you search the forums for "wifi proxy" you'll get more than 10 threads with the same problem, but without a solution.
You are using a wifi router with proxy at home and it works, right?
I'll upgrade to 6.5 now, maybe this fixes the problem...
Thanks,
Simon

Yes, I have MS ISA 2006 and it works.....
Truely amazing. I've upgraded to 6.5 and the problem is still there :-(. I've the radio from the latest official diamond rom. Could an other radio fix the problem?
//edit: Just to describe my problem further: When I set the proxy, exit the dialog and reopen the dialog, the proxy is there. When I open the internet explorer then, the http proxy gets deleted. However, the socks proxy is kept. This is kind of frustrating...
Thanks,
Simon
Read this one: http://www.htc.com/www/faqs.aspx?p_id=13&cat=0&id=36792 According to this article wifi + proxy should not work. What can I do now?
// Update: This looks extremly promising: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1990412#post1990412 I'll try that immediatly and post the results. If that works, I'll build an application to simplify applying the fix.
Thanks,
Simon
My status is too. Please help me!
It's a bug, that's sure. I finally got the proxy working, but after reconnecting the proxy settings were blank again .
Just to let you know I was also having problems with proxies and a google led me to this thread. For me, the advice in post 2 worked perfectly. I am using a 6.5 rom on a Touch HD.
Hi SivEd!
Did you also have the problem that your proxy settings get reset when you reconnect to the wifi network?
I've written an app that resolves this issue, let me know if you want to test.
Hi Anks!
Please upload your app, this is a real problem for me.
Thanks,
Simon
Simon, sent you a PM.
The problem seems to be fixed in recent Windows Mobile 6.5 builds, at least for me. I'm using build 21812. Unfortunatly, proxy authentification seems not to work in Opera. In Internet Explorer a dialog appears where I have to enter my username and password. Opera doesn't display such a dialog. But the main problem (proxy setting gets deleted) has been resolved.
HTH,
Simon
