I have two issues with my xv6800 dealing with 802.11 (wifi).
1) when I turn the phone off, the email sync does not work on the timer interval set in the email settings. I work in a metal building that has very limited cell coverage, but does have wifi. I would like for the wifi to sync on the regular programmed schedule.
2) I connect to a WPA2-TKIP-PEAP network. The network is configured properly and I can sync my email, but sometimes when the device wakes up and tries to automatically connect to the network, it will prompt me for my username and password. The username is cached, but the password gets lost even with the "save password" toggle button set. This is rather annoying since I'd like for the device to automatically wake up at a set interval and sync the email. This issue is intermittent, most of the time the device wakes up and connects without the pasword prompt.
Note: A resolution for item #1 above was to write a custom C++ application that uses the CeRunAppAtTime function to wake the device up at a set interval. This works except for when issue #2 above occurs.
Any suggestions?

I have just updated my wizard to the newest Qtek-ROM (186504-ruu_9100_2170702_21707102_20710_qtek_wwe_ship.exe) with AKU2/MSFP and DirectPush. Everything works fine when I am using a cellular-line.
As soon as I change to a Wifi the ActiveSync tells me the error 85020013: "Your current sync schedule requires a cellular data connection. Please set up a cellular data connection as described in online Help or change the sync schedule." Whats that :evil:? Is there a way to setup DirectPush with a Wifi-connection?
As far as I know Directpush works only with GPRS not via Wifi.
If you disable directpush in your active sync it can connect via WIFI and your error will be gone.
It will sync by wifi even if directpush is enabled but this error will come back every time it sync's according to its schedule.
But your device has to be switched on for this.

I had the same question for days.....
Every peace of information you read about microsoft Direct Push says it's possible to sync using gprs AND wifi.
But.... as soon as direct push is enabled and only wifi is available the dreaded error appears.
It doesn't make sense..... wifi is, just as gprs is, a normal IP connection which supports the heartbeat signal en HTTPs notification.
Perhaps someone could clarify this matter
I can try.
Possibliity one:
Its got something to do with the legal IP address associated with the Wizard. This address is crucial to the "always on" connection since there's an IP socket associated with it for port 443 (or 80 if you don't use HTTPS) on the FrontEnd Exchange server. If the IP changes, then the connection is dropped and has to be re-established. That in itself is no big deal, but I believe that there is no mechanism in place to notify Direct Push on the Wizard that this has happened.
(more likely) Possiblity two:
There must be some low-level tie to the Direct push app from the GPRS connection that allows it to function when the device is in standby mode. Have you ever noticed that your WiFi connection is dropped when you place your wizard into standby mode by pressing the power button?
Yep.... i've noticed the WIFI standy but it still would be nice te recieve pushed mails as soon as i start using the wizard.
All this without having to do the manual operations.
Perhaps something for the future.................
@Sleuth255: I am convinced that possibility two is the right one.
Wifi takes a lot of power (at least with my wizard it seems so) and so they don't let it on when the device is in standby (you are right). Switching off GPRS or GSM wouldn't be so clever for a phone so this is probably the reason for making DirectPush only work with a cellular connection.
Hi, I'm hoping someone may be able to help:
I'm running Windows Mobile 5 on an O2 XDA Exec
I connect my device to the internet using 802.11b connecting to a wireless access point
I configured email for two email accounts,
One is a POP3 account and the other is a hotmail account
I've been able to send/receive emails from my mobile device as expected...up until today that is...
Just today I'm now no longer able to send/receive emails
I now get the following message on my device on attempting to send/receive emails
Cannot Connect
Cannot connect with current connection settings.
To change your connection settings, tap Settings
<Settings>
This message repeats itself. It appears the device is polling for a connection
Having done some reading on the topic
(here http://www.pocketpcmag.com/_archives/Sep04/VPNConnection.aspx) it appears that
somehow my connection settings are messed up.
Has anyone come across this problem and come up with a fix
I've always had the "My ISP" option set on both
"network management" settings (i.e. connections>advanced>select networks)
and this has been working fine up until today.
So for both the options in "network management", i.e.
"Programs that automatically connect
to the internet should connect using"
and
"Programs that automatically connect
to a private network should connect using"
I have "My ISP" as the connection setting
For reference, I'm able to establish a wireless connection to the internet
using the device and browse as expected (I'm using the Opera browser).
I've read the guide here (http://www.pocketpcmag.com/_archives/Sep04/VPNConnection.aspx) so understand why I might want to use the "My Work Network" connection option. I have no requirement for this so have set both connection options to "My ISP" and this has been working as
expected up until now...
By the way, on top of this MSN Messenger refuses to sign in (Pocket MSN sign-in failed)
and since this is linked to my hotmail email settings, I'm not able to send/receive any hotmail
Many thanks
Funnily enough had the same issue with mine today!!
Exactly the same - MSN, Email and Internet sites (like google wouldnt work)...however (as I have Orange M5000) the Orange WAP internet sites were fine.
I did so many things to try and get it to work (Not sure which one actually did it to be honest)
But I used the reg hack to keep data connected - that was the first to be disabled so now it connects then disconnects.
I also use Phone Alarm - This was causing me lots of problems so if you've got it check the options. With phone alarm i had entered my SIM PIN code - no good this had to be disabled - In fact phone alarm is now just switching profiles and is working fine as long as no security PINs are on or data connection monitoring/logging. Also just made sure for "Orange World" (My default Network) that the internet access point was correct.
...to be honest thats all I can think of - but its working now.
They are complicated devices and mine has given me more headaches in my first week than the 10 months i had with the Blue Angel (M2000)...still shouldnt complain too much the M5000 was a free upgrade.
Hope you get it sorted
Matt
my cellphone load gets suck out most of the time because it connects to the internet on its own, is there a setting/program that prompts me first if i want to connect to gprs...
many thanks
Hi,
Your phone is most likely trying to connect to check your email. To prevent this happening, from your Inbox select Menu/Tools/Options. Click on your email account, press Next till you reach page 4 then Options. De-Select the box which says 'Connect and check for messages every:'
Hope this helps.
GPRS connection
I have a similar problem using exchange push email. I have established an Internet connection with WLan and checked that I can access my webmail (which is my Exchange mail). Despite this to update email the phone automatically connects GPRS - this is really annoying. I read once that this is set in the registry when one installs the operator customisations. Can anyone tell me how to change this?
this tool
http://www.gb-soft.cz/xdaII/
can be set to auto disconnect gprs after x seconds/minuts
GB Soft Tweak
Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried this and it doesnt seem to fix the problem. Although I am not excactly clear on the settings.
I tried the Turn Off GPRS option with a 5 min setting, trued Search GPRS [G] on start radio and Search [G] on start GPRS connection.
With regards

is there anyone using Phoneweaver? a profile switching software.
Does Phoneweaver aotumatically attempt to connect to internet everytime it switches from one profile to another profile?
Why Phoneweaver attempts to connect to internet? seeking updates? sending data?
I realized this that's because everytime Phoneweaver switches from offline to online,an annoying window will pop-up as follows:
cannot connect
dialed
the answering modem has disconnected . To check your connection settings and change them if needed,tap settings.
This means Phoneweaver is attempting to connect to internet,but because the radio has not fully ready (during switching from offline to online),so the internet is not available either, so there is such annoying pop-up.
if auto connection to internet can be set to several seconds later (than radio is ready), this annoying pop-up will be avoided.
NOW THE QUESTION IS: HOW TO TURN OFF THIS AUTO CONNECTION THING?
Due to this I will not use offline profile just to avoid this pop-up window. G-profile has same problem.
My internet connect is fine,I surf internet everyday,so trying to say something about my internet connection settings is probably not the direction.
I have used Phoneweaver on several ROMs and never encountered this issue.
Ok, So I was impressed to see my new Vodafone UK S5 has an option under settings > call for Internet Calling.
This registers perfectly on my voip server, and most of the time calls work just fine.
The really annoying issue I have come across though is when your connection is less than perfect.
I have all power management options disabled, Download booster and Smart network switch are enabled.
Sometimes It seems the following happens...
Phone has 3/4G or wifi, VOIP account registers and recieves calls.
You then lose both wifi and 3/4g connectivity, even just briefly.
The voip account gets logged out, as would be expected.
You restore 3/4g or wifi connectivity.
VOIP calls no longer work.
Upon going back into Settings > Call > Internet Calling > Accounts,
This is displayed:
"[email protected]
Primary account. Still trying..."
While connected to wifi I have done a TCP dump, as well as from my VOIP server to analyse all traffic, and I can confirm that despite the message, the phone is NOT Still trying to connect. Literally NO traffic is being sent by the phone, or recieved by the SIP server.
To regain VOIP connection, you simply tap on the account to open the settings page, and immediately hit back.
"Saving account..." appears, and instantly the phone re-registers on the VOIP server.
My VOIP account is configured as transport type: TCP, and Send Keepalive: Always send.
My question is, Without rooting the device, How I can I make the phone try to reconnect more aggressively when the internet connection is back up.
I expect the phone to reconnect within 30 seconds of having a working internet connection, without needing to go through the process above.
Any suggestions?
