GPRS-Connection Problems--> Solution!

Hello. Hope this helps.
I flashed my german MDA C with the imate ROM. Everything worked fine, except the connection with GPRS.
For example, when I connected to the Internet (I use the german Vodafone Provider), the connection was stable. But only for this one connection.
When I disconnected pressing the red button longer than 2 seconds, I never was able to get a new connection (Error Message, that no connection could be made by unknown causes). The only way to get out of this mess, was a Soft-Reset.
Another problem was: When receiving an MMS, there was no way to get a connection to the Internet after that (Error Message, that no connection could be made by unknown causes). Only way to get out of this, was to make another Soft-Reset.
I did the following:
Start-->Programs--> Wireless Modem-->Tools-->Options
I unchecked the "Preset GPRS Connection" (it was checked by default).
Since then.....everything works as it should
Ok, the GPRS Connection doesnt disconnect automatically after using it, but it re-connects after using the "Red-Button-Workaround".
Hope, I can help with this.

thanks man i will try it i have been having problems with my gprs connection..... another thing what is "Red-Button-Workaround" ?

Hi.
The Jam, can't disconnect automatically.
With the "workaround" I meant, that you can disconnect GPRS connection by pressing the red button about two seconds.
Hope this helps.

Had the same problem, but mine mysteriously solved itself during this weekend. My wModem settings are the default.

hhmmm, yesterday...everything worked fine.
Today, I have the same error again. I post a pic of the error message. Someone any ideas ?
Greetings from Cologne,

That setting didn't help me, still getting error-message on my second connection-attempt without soft-resetting first. Using Vodafone Sweden.

The problem is not magician only, see this thread at Tekguru,

Restore default
I had the same problem, have made a hard reset and all he works well is always connected also after before the time. I have made the backup. Then I have modified the configurazini in order to try the wap and have modified the proxy after made the same error did not connect the second time. I have restored the backup and all it works. It must be something that wines modified in the registry when it modifies the logon formulations. I trying to understand what is the problem. Excused for my English.

Why start a new thread on this issue, when there's already a very active thread here, with what appears to be a solution?

The original thread (with what seems to possibly be the solution) can be found here:

JAMin WiFi Problem

HI ALL
Got my JAMin now a week nd have ever since being tryng to connect to my wireless network. Basically my device detects a network but when i attempt to connect it says connecting then the network on the device says unavailable. I have tried 5 different routers/access points (secure and unsecure) but the same thing happens.
It connects for like 3 seconds sometimes assigns IP signal goes up around 3/4 way then poof gone.
I have UPGRADED ROM to latest.
I have disabled all security options on my router.
I have also enabled MAC address filtering and assigned my device address to MAC filter and disabled WEP.
I have disabled FIrewall on my router.
I have changed to B & G mixed mode.
I have done everything logical to assist in connecting to my wirelss network.
I have also been communicating with the Imate representitves via online chat support but they not much of help saying that the problem lies with my router and/or settings. But 5 different access points/routers cannot be faulty.
I really love the phone apart from the fact that i cannot connect to my wireless network/s.
I would appreciate help on sorting this out..dont really want to send the phone back unless it is a faulty unit.
Regards

Hi,
if u go to the /Settings/Connections/Wireless Lan/Power Mode
Select the Best Performance, instead of in the middle, it got me
connected to the Wireless Network in the office.
Maybe this helps, but at the expense of the battery.
Rgds,
Hon

Thank you for your help my friend but i have already tried that. I feel like i am going circles. :roll: :roll:
Thanks.....

Mate you can atleast connect to other networks i cannot AT ALL.
Dont know what to do, will now try and get my device replace...keeping my fingers crossed.

Hi,
I had the same problem... it is hardware disfunction, get your device replaced by your provider, this is the only solution you have.
I get mine replaced and now it work perfectly (I had done everything you've done too)
Hope it helps.

Hi,
I've had exactly the same problem. My S200 connects and then disconnects within 5 seconds.
The solution is to go to "Settings" - "Connections"
select "Wireless LAN", select "menu", "network adapters"
and select "SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter."
My problem was solved.

I'll reply to myself:
didn't solve the problem.
Looks like I have no problems the fist time I connect (after a reboot)
It's the next times I try it keeps dropping the connection.
I'll take it back to the shop as well.

Have you already tried -as already posted- /Settings/Connections/Wireless Lan/Power Mode and select the Best Performance setting instead of the central, middle position? This solved all my problems with S200 and WiFi intermittent connection, where with default setting it connects and lose connection every 5 seconds...

How to use P3600 as HSDPA Modem

I want to setup my P3600 (English ROM) as a 3.5G modem for my PC but not successful yet. The Telco service staff has no idea too and pass me a manual for dopod 838 pro. The mentioned programs are not there, nor in my dopod D810 CD.
I can:
- Activesync using USB
- Activesync using bluetooth
Question:
- Should I use the same HTC modem dialer on my PC for XDA?
- Should I use the Start->Program->Internet Sharing?. It allows me to choose bluetooth or USB to PC but both not working too after connect.
Anyone successfully connect their PC via P3600 using HSDPA, pls share the steps. Many thanks.

Eventually, I figure it out myself.
Forget all the HTC modem dialer or wireless modem program as in Xda.
1. Start->Program->Internet Sharing on WM5.0
2. Select the connection type: USB or BT
3. Select "Connect"
4. Then connect the USB and done.
For BT, it would have instruction for you to start PAN now. done.
Woo, it's much easier than the HTC dialer. But now my problem is VPN problem with my telco.

Thanks very much for reporting this info back, it will come in useful when I get my trinity!

just 2¢...
Sadly, because Internet Sharing is actually a NAT server running on your phone, it could prevent you from using 'classic' VPN. You can find more details by googling for 'VPN over NAT'.

for VPN purposes you can always use old good wireless modem mode. it works well.

I don't think it is related to NAT. As long as the VPN ports are opened, it should work. I am using a Wireless router at home and no trouble at all for using VPN under NAT.
Checked with telco. They can enable it for me with extra charge/month. and also the traffic would be charged as expensive GPRS plan. What kind of service!!!
Think twice before subscribing. I used "WonToFee / 1-1-" . The sales that say it can work for VPN may not even know what a TCP port is.
Anyone has use VPN over HSDPA with another telco? e.g. SMOOTH TONE

Hello,
This thread is a bit old, however I think it is related to my problem: I am trying to use Internet Sharing on my P3600 (ROM 1.23.405.2 / Radio ROM 1.38.00.11). Using BT, it works just fine. However, when connected on USB it works fine only for the first time. When I tap "disconnect", the HSDPA connection is stopped, but the status keeps displaying "Connected". There is now way to use Internet Sharing again before a soft reset (Windows XP wouldn't even recognize the P3600 again). Is this a known issue? I have googled a bit, but I haven't found any similar problems.
Thanks!

Hi shefful,
I have had the same problem. I have come across a possible solution while browsing forums. When you need to disconnect press and hold down the red end call button for a few seconds and this disconnects the modem. I haven't tried this yet but it's worth a shot.

Adam

Hi adamwolfe,
Thanks for your help, unfortunatelly this is not the solution to my problem. The GPRS connection ends (according to the icon on top of the screen), but the status keeps displaying "Connected". The application stops responding and can't be stopped from Settings/Memory/Runnning Programs.

Hi shefful,
Yeah, I have the same problem too. Looks like the program freezes in the Connected status. Even tried terminating Internet Sharing with Start/Settings/.../Memory/Running Programs and relaunching Internet Sharing.
Sometimes I get a popup message saying the remote host has terminated the connection before the program hangs. I think this may be the cause of the problem. Which mobile operator are you on?
Rebooting is the only solution so far. Fortunately the Trinity reboots in 20 seconds - one of the fastest in the PPC market I think.

Hi ayhansan,
For other reasons I needed to hard reset my Trinity and the freezing problem has disappeared. I don't know what had caused this problem, I just hope it won't happen again. If I disconnect the USB cable, the status changes to "disconnected" and I can always reconnect.

same problem here
i am connecting to laptop thru USB
after I disconnect UMTS phone syaing still connected
and want kill Internet Sharing
???
thanks

I would try the latest WM6 ROM for your Herald first.

Thats the whole issue, I have a (dutch) Vodafone branded phone....... So no updating and no original ROM for me...
or dos anybody have the original dutch ROM

had a similar problem with a cooked rom in the past. the only way I could turn on wifi was to start it through the settings -connections -wireless lan. maybe it will work for you.

This is indeed also a common problem. I had this once before and indeed with your workaround it will work again. But unfortunately this is not the answer for my problem. I tryed your method and it will not work.
The whole wierd thing is that I dont get a MAC adres. So the chip is probably broken. Vodafone dosnt give me support and HTC dosnt eather. So Ill have to contact a third party company to fix my phone. after its fixed i will have to send the bill to vodafone..... What a crapy service.

I tried Flashing using a few Good ROMS in this forum but the result also same.....
anybody can solve this problem...?
thanks

What is the problem exactly?

I wonder if this is hardware rather than software. Try an official WM5 (AKU2.2) ROM from the ftp/wiki and see if you still get this problem.

i have this same problem when I install not original qtek ROM (WM6 or WM6.1).
Tray to scan your network using PeekPocket (on your PDA) and you see if problem are hardware or software. PeekPocket in wm6 & wm6.1 found my AP but default Windows Mobile not (in wireless settings). In WM5 all is tip top
Sorry form my bad english
