My Wing randomly reset yesterday, deleting all my contacts, texts, custom settings, etc.
After re-syncing it to my Outlook and personalizing my settings, i tried to set up emails. I usually connect to the internet using the wifi because i dont have a plan. I successfully connected to my network at my house however the phone doesnt recognize the internet.
I can't set up an email or use IE. Webpages pretend to load but it just stays at the tmobile default homepage.
I somehow managed to receive a picture text last night but since then I have not been able to send or receive any.
Before the random reset, if wifi was not on and i tried use IE, the edge would try to connect. This doesnt happen anymore.
In the Comm Manager I can not enable or disable the data connection. Tapping it is unresponsive
Ive been messing with all my Connection settings, but nothing seems to work, even when i soft reset in between changes.
Another problem i ran into was when i tried to follow steps to set up the MMS, under MMS options>Servers I had T-Mobile MMS there however under the "Connect via" drop down in the settings there is nothing selected and nothing to choose from.
Anyone know what i can do?

On basic t-mobile vario II - 'out of the box' wm5 rom etc etc
I have set up one of my pop3 accounts.
Everything works find, can receive mail, send mail etc etc.
However, when I set this to polling for email every 15 mins, it will only work, if email is open or running in the background and gprs is already connected.
Is this normal?
I was hoping that the way it worked was that it would get to minute 15, open messaging, open a connection to gprs, send & receive, and alert me if there are unread messages.
What I've found is that gprs has to be on or it doesn't work.
Also, that if messaging is not already open, nothing happens, when I turn power on the device and go and look, messaging is not open, if I open it, it says 'disconnecting', but never does.
If I send & receive after this, the new message will open, but then semi-crashes the device in that I can see the message OK, and scrolling works, but nothing else. Soft reset cures this.
Now, is this 'normal' behaviour, or do I need to hard reset to regain this function.
All advice welcome

There's nothing wrong in keeping a GPRS/3G connection open... you only get charged by data transfer, not connection time... if your worried about this, why not add on Web 'n' Walk to your package!
It's not that I'm worried about the data, I do have web & walk, it's more battery life. I've already swapped to gsm instead of 3g for most of the time, but it still uses up more battery than not having it on at all.
So, with bandswitch, I thought I had a really cunning plan, set up polling, and then use banswitch to turn off the connection when finished. But it's not working out like that, as none of it works without gprs connected to start with, and messaging open in the background!
I'm just trying to find out if this is normal behaviour, or there is something funny going on on my device.
I have an 6955 with Rogers and every time I try and connect through Edge or Gprs, it says "cannot connect for an unknown reason. etc."
It does wifi fine, gps, etc. I can send txt messages, call people. Everything is great, but GPRS never works. I even see the big "E" saying there's an Edge network.
All my settings are correct. I even went to Rogers and they went through my settings and they're stumped. I even hard reset the phone to see if this would fix it.
Just annoyed cause I got a data plan and I can't even use it.
Anyone see anything like this? Thanks.
try the phone data manager tool thats on the phone to automatically detect your settings, the quickstart cd also has an update tool to upload the settings applet if they have changed, I can't remember where this applet is on the phone since mine is currently out for repairs, but its a blue icon within settings
I tried that, I'm stumped. I even brought it into Rogers and got them to mess with the settings and they couldn't get it working.
The "E" for edge is on, but it can't connect.
Everything else works great, gps, calling, txt, etc.
Stumped
Once setting up Wifi, I cannot make my data connection work.
I know it is set up and working properly because Weather and Stock Tabs are updating fine, but all other programs cannot use data connectioin (e.g. error response in Opera, Mail, etc)
I have set up in Connection according to Internet and Company (not sure how this is called in English) but it does not work.
Does anyone have similar problems? And how do i fix this?
can we have some more info?
What happens if you turn the phone connection off in comms manager, but leave the wifi connection on?
What error are you getting?
Is your wifi router set to block any particular type of traffic?
With wifi it works fine, just my 3g data connection does not work.
i have tried numerous settings, changed, deleted, softresetted. nothing can make my HD connect through 3G
H(sdpa) and E(dge) symbols appear next to connection strength which signalizes it is connected after i switch data connection on. but whatever program i try to connect, all give me errors. i assume they keep trying to connect with either wifi or something else.
there were some times where i could update stocks and weather tab, but at same time opera, msn, google maps, etc. all gave me connection errors (could not connect etc.)
sometimes it appears when i delete an entry, it re-appears again. maybe i have to do hard-reset if there is no solution at all.
Get your network to send you a config text with the settings. Also have they activated hsdpa for your account?
sure i tried that all. also tested other prepaid cards (vodafone, o2), with all of them the problem appears to be the same. they all work on my old phone, just not on HD.
im afraid only a hardreset will help.
what happens if you turn wifi off via comms manager (making sure phone connection is still turned on)
does it update weather / stock then?
PS which mobile company are you with, and in what country?
I have a similar problem.
But in my case it often helps to disconnect the 3G connection and reconnect. In most cases Opera can then load the desired page.
Network is O2 Germany.
ive been a lurker here and have been searching for a solution all over the place but nothing seems to be working.
i can receive messages fine but sending i cant! this was never a problem with my eten x650...i didnt even touch the settings on my eten and it worked flawlessly
if going to settings > personal tab > phone > click on services tab > click on voice mail and text messages it always brings me an error "cannot read settings from the network. try viewing settings later, or disconnect data connection and try again.
i have tried viewing it later, my data connection is always off since i dont have a data plan.
any tips or help? thanks!
looks like my settings via the sms program and they are:
server name: at&t mms
gateway: wireless.cingular.com
port number: 80
server address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
connect via: at&t isp
send limit:300K
wap version:wap2.0
I had a similar problem It may help if you go to settings connections and clickconnection setup again it worked for me and maybe worth a try before Hard reset etc
Hope it works for you
nope that doesnt work. tried that on multiple accounts.
i had hard resetted for the HTC rom update but still same problem
Ring up your service provide they can help you with the setup and do some test to determin were the fault lays there end or th phone.
Also you may need to check settings/ connections/ advanced network/SMS tab there are some options.
i havent called my service provider but i just think it weird that my previous winmo phone worked fine without even touching the settings. i just popped in the sim.
everything in that sms menu is correct....its "GSM preferred" as people have suggested to me. tried them all and tried to send sms with each setting to no avail.
My sister's phone just started today displaying the EXACT same behavior as b-16707, except her phone is a treo flashed for metro. My wife also has a treo on metro but not experiencing issues at all. My sister has WM5 and my wife's Palm.
just called ATT today and they couldnt help me at all and told me to hard reset. thing is ive hard resetted before and it hasnt worked for me. what is wrong????????? gahhhhh
probably is definitely with the phone as i get the cant send messages error the split second after i hit the send button
Hey,
As far as i am aware nothing has changed on my phone in terms of settings, at least, I havn't changed any settings.
My email accounts (since i woke up this morning) have been unable to send/receive. I have it set to auto send receive every 5 minutes, however, today it hasn't been doing that, and it also will not work if i try and manually send and receive. I have tried soft resart, getting email settings resent from T-Mobile, deleting and resetting up the accounts however it still will not send and receive. (It is happening both when connected Wifi or not)
The error message i reveive is
" Error synchronizing, Cannot Connect.
Cannot connect with current settings, To change your connection settings, tap Settings "
I have looked through those settings and everything seems normal still as far as i can see.
Any ideas of how to fix this without having to fact reset?
