Hello guys
I am suffering for a few days on this issue in HK..
I just sim-unlocked my x01ht by M3100v4Unlock from Imei-check(OS is still Japanese), and try to setup my environment one by one.
However one of simple setting to connect by Gprs still has problem..
Please help me if you guys have any idea.
Summary of my situation:
1. GPRS (by Peoples SIM) : can connect but cannot see web site by IE
2. 3G (by CSL SIM) : can connect but cannot see web site by IE
3. Wifi : can connect and no problem to see web site by IE
for case 1&2, IE error message says "Cannot show page, please check the address and try again".
It seems address is not solved into IP address(Like cannot find DNS server)..
howver i still don't have any solution..
Would you please give me some advise for this problem?
Thank you !
go to start>settings>connections>connections>connections>advanced>select networks> and in the drop down list select the connection you are using to access the net.

Thank you so much for your quick reply.
I just checked the setting you taught me,
However I found out I already selected the appropriate setting you mentioned.
Normally for WiFi connection I select "My Work Network" &
for 3G/EDGE I select "My ISP Connection".
Also make sure all the APN, username & password correctly enter.

Thank you for your suggestion.
I checked APN, Username & Password is correctly inputted.
Today I also brought my x01ht to support centre,
let the enginner set up, but still have problem.
when I use this sim on my HP rw6828,actually no problem.
(That mean sim has no problem.)
Thank you
I have a similar problem, see this thread

are you using a cingular ROM?
Hi,
I installed Opera for wm5, then can go to any website now!!
That means IE caused this problem, but don't know exactly what the problem is..also can't find how to update IE..
Anyway, I use opera at this moment.
Thank you so much!
cpz21,
Thank you for your information,
I just deleted the registory you mentioned
then I can connect to any website now.
So everything is clear!!!
Thank you
glad that helped.
I still have the problem...
cpz21,
Sorry, I was so happy by myself.
I'm using genuine softbank japanese version bought in end of Dec.
As I am new in this toy, can't give you good advise at this moment..
Thanks akind. I'm mostly using opera 8.6 right now, or I can restore registry, or just not to sync with home PC (sync at work seems ok)
Sooner or later I will find the reg key
Hi cpz21
Last night I hardreset my device and setup from the beginning.
Of course I deleted the reg key and test IE then no problem.
However, this morning i went to web by IE in subway through gprs, it can't show web page.
Then I arrived office and checked the reg key again, found it still there...
Don't know why it come to be like this..
Just for your information.
Hey,
I can't seem to get WLM for Windows Mobile to work. I have searched XDA as well as HoFo, I have tried various roms (Xplore 1.1, Xplore 2.0 Beta, Faria's 'The Real Thing,' Faria's AKU3.3 WM5, and even T-Mobile's 2.26), and I have tried multiple connection changes.
I have also tried various Radio ROM's including 2.19.11, 2.25, 2.61, and 2.69.
The way I have my settings in "Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks" is as follows:
1.)For the top option, I created a new network titled "WiFi." The only additional change I made to this one was to tick the box "this connection connects to the Internet," I did not tick the box for "Use Proxy."
2.)For the bottom, I also created a new network called "T-Mobile Web." For this, I added a modem (Cellular GPRS), entered an APN of wap.voicestream.com, did not add a VPN, turned Proxy on with a valid entry, and made sure the WAP and Secure WAP had valid entries.
With this setup I CAN access any website with Pocket IE and Opera 8.6x. Unfortunately, I cannot access Windows Live Messenger:
1.) Open WLM through the Program window
2.) I can either say "Sign In" on the homescreen, or go to "Cancel" and enter in my display name, but either way when I click sign in I get...
"Signing in to Messenger will add your Messenger contacts to your phone's address book. Do you wish to continue?"
3.) I say "Ok" to this, my phone notifies me that it is "Connecting to GPRS," then Windows Live states, "There's a connectivity problem. Make sure you're in an area with good phone reception and try again."
4.) I can press "Retry" as many times as I want, nothing changes.
I can also get a different error message if I click on the "Sign-in to Windows Live" from the Today screen. My phone then connects to the Internet again, then, after it successfully connects, I get, "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."
I have tried removing the Live Messenger Today screen item to resolve it ( not that I thought it would work ). I have tried enabling the WiFi and that did not work. I have tried setting both Options in Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks to my connection "Web," but that did not work.
I have tried in areas where I get full reception + GPRS/EDGE and I have tried in other areas, nearly one hundred miles away, where I had varying reception + GPRS/EDGE.
Any ideas?
im a beta tester for windows live mobile and can probably say without doubt its expired. mine wont connect when i new version comes out. they disable the older versions when a new build comes out. the latest build was realeased something like 2/4/07. thats how i can usually tell there is a new build available without going to the microsoft connect site, it just stops working.
try finding the latest build and you shouldnt have a problem
dolbe,
I would agree with you, but other people are using the exact same one that I have...only they are successful in connecting. Thank you for your insight, though.
I think you should change the thread name into something like "Windows Live Messenger DOESN'T Connect thru GPRS "
Good luck

Possible problem with the gprs could be reception or radio versions, the gprs data connection is slow when tray to work with internet explorer or opera,
Takes to long time to show up the www.google.com ,
I think the problem could be with the radio version or the rom,
Windows live/ email synchronisation connection solutions
Hey All,
Web browser working fine but you can't synch your e-mail account or windows live account? ... I was puzzled by this for quite a while myself before it finally clicked (I even got to a stage where I could sync my email and live account through my wireless internet but not through the mobiles own GPRS/3G)
The problem lies in the data connection that windows live account/ your email account attempts to use. The good news is that, it is usually very easy to select the right data connection for your email account to use:
1. Go through the E-mail account setup, where you enter your mail server settings. Continue to enter these as normal.
2. When you get to the "Outgoing (SMTP) mail server" page, tap "Advanced Server Settings". Under "Network Connection" you have the option to choose the data connection. This is usually set to "The Internet" as standard, but usually needs to be changed to "t-mobile internet", "vodafone internet" or whatever network connection has been setup to get your mobile connected to your providers own GPRS/3G. BINGO, your done... well most of the time.
The bad news for Windows live/ hotmail users is that they do not get the chance to select the network connection a windows live/hotmail account uses. On the very first part of the e-mail setup, as soon as you type in "[email protected], or [email protected]" , the account wizard completely takes over declaring that "settings found for hotmail.com". And even after you type in all your details you do not get to option to select the network connection to be used. (This is consequence of the fact that Microsoft Windows Mobile thinks it knows best how to configure microsoft based e-mail accounts for windows mobile.) The network connection that is automatically selected is called "The Internet". As you cannot select another network connection, you must edit "The Internet" connection so that it has the right settings for your particular mobile service provider. To do this:
1. Go to Start --> Settings --> Connections tab --> connections --> manage existing connections --> select "The Internet", and then tap "Edit".
2. Leave the name as "The Internet", but fill the rest of the boxes with the GPRS/3G settings of your individual mobile service provider.
Note: Getting these settings is relatively easy: 1.You can ask your mobile service provider. 2. You can search the web for the GPRS settings of your network. 3. If your web browser is working fine, you probably have the settings. Check under manage existing connections, and check the values used for "t-mobile internet", "vodafone internet", "orange internet", etc... and just copy them.
Enjoy,
AK
Hi AK,
could "The Internet" settings be hidden? I can't find the settings under Manage Existing Connections
This is truly a b*tch! I recently upgraded my Samsung i780 to Windows Mobile 6.1 via the free upgrade offered by Samsung (http://www.samsungmobile.com/support/i780/nr/subXb_xp.jsp) - and after that I lost my settings to make MSN work..
I remember that I spend lots of time to make it work last time aswell.. and at that time it always created two connections when I started to use MSN and check email at the same time.
After that, I used my phone on a flatrate 3G connection for almost 3 months in Asia without any trouble - it worked just great, I was emailing, using Skype, MSN, Google Map and everything flawlessly... Buut ofcourse I had to upgrade to 6.1 which I am happy about, since my phone is faster now.
Anyway.. tonight I finally got it working again; I wish I could make some kind of walkthrough.. but I can't..
What I did was to have two online configurations from my Danish telecom provider "Telenor" send to my phone by SMS (I could type in my phoneno. on their website, selecting which config I wanted); I got one for WAP called "E-GO" and I got one for Internet, called "Internet". For a while, I was using "Internet" as my default profile for everything, and it worked fine with everything except for MSN which refused to even attempt to logon.
Now I went to to Start --> Settings --> Connections tab --> connections --> manage existing connections --> and selected the "WAP" connection as my default connection instead.
Now everything suddenly works - I selected this connection also to be used now for my GMAIL account (under server priveligies while setting up your email), Skype works, MSN works, Google Map works, Explorer works, Opera Works..... all running full 3G HDSPA mode!
My guess is, that the problem rely on the fact that you cannot select any default connection for MSN. So the connection you select as your generic connection must be capable of running MSN and all the rest - so if it doesn't work with your "Internet", "My Internet" or "The Internet" connection, try changing to another one. If you don't have it, try to setup from your telecom provider - maybe another setting will work.
Last thing to do for me now.. a full system backup with "SPB Backup" to make sure nothing goes wrong ever again

yeah mine can only connect with wifi but cannot connect with gprs but other but IE and weather report can work so far, WLM,Yahoo,TELENAV cannot connect
With my 8525, i connect just fine to all access points. However, when i try to browse the internet, I get the message "Page cannot be found. Please check spelling and try again". I get this message with all with web sites. I know there's something wrong becase this happens even on unsecured networks like airports, coffee shops etc. I recently upgraded to the to the new version that was released for PTT(Pust To Talk). Cans someone please help me. I really need this.
Did you change the rom on the phone???
Be sure that you are disabling the Proxy (assuming you are using an AT&T ROM). The WM6 ROMs from AT&T use a different method to manage proxy and it is ON by default. You should have two little apps called "Disable Proxy" and "Enable Proxy". Always run "Disable Proxy" before accessing anything besides your MediaNet GPRS account via the cell network. In other words, if you are accessing via wi-fi or if you are accessing "My ISP" or some other non-MediaNET account, disable the proxy first.
I've disabled the proxy on my 8525 and it seems to have done the trick. I've since been able to browse the internet using a wifi hotspot
i hope it continues to work
thanks
I've had success with the disabling of the proxy. However, sometimes in the middle of browsing i get the same message "page cannot be found...." and the the page progress indicator says "locating". it's like the proxy setting is not maintained. Can anyone provide some assistance in how this can be avoided......PLEASE?
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
I'm sorry to bring this up again folks, I have read and searched forum for similar threads but am still confused.
I find the WM6.1 network connections interface very confusing. Can anyone tell me step by step how to setup vodafone?
Should it be setup as part of "My Work Network" or as its own "Vodafone Live" ?
When I set it up, I still want my phone to use my WiFi connection at home as default, and only use vodafone live if I specifically tell it to. Is this possible ?
Under Netwotk Management
Surely "programs that auto connect to the internet" and "programs that auto connect to a private network" would be one and the same no ? What about when we use our private network to connect to the internet (via router etc) ??
as I say, I find the entire windows mobile networking system a mess, very confusing and have never gotten vodafone live working properly.
btw, my phone is HTC Touch HD
Many thanks for any desperately needed help
Update...
If I setup the phone to use just "My Work Network" under both "programs that auto connect to the internet" and under "programs that auto connect to a private network"....
and then manually setup vodafone under the "My Work Network" device as follows...(using my local vodafone settings)
1. add new modem connection
2. name it (vodafone etc)
3. select modem to cellular line (gprs, 3g)
4. enter apn "live.vodafone.com"
5. username and password - "vodafone"
6. under "My Work Network" setup proxy as 10.24.59.100
7. under advanced set socks to 10.24.59.100:1080
Then it works. I can disable wifi, enable data connection and browse the internet.
THE PROBLEM here, is that if I go into college, and use my phone over their wifi, the proxy server gets changed thus disabling vodafone all over again.
So, it works if you set it up manually under the "My Work Network" device. But I need it set it up as a seperate device so that the proxy doesnt get messed up. I have tried editing the auto created "vodafone live" device, it just wont work. I tried editing the "my isp" device but that has no proxy setting.
Can anyone please help me make any frickin sense of this. ?
