hi,everyone .this bother me for a long time I ask many times to get some help but no one can tell me how to resolve this.
I am in USA and use as T-MOBILE I have T-ZONE service I can use my phone online watch news you tube etc.but just msn can't online.anyone know how to fix that problem? please help on this one.thank you
no one know??! anyone live in usa have same problem??
dont know about USA. But for Vodafone NL you need to add a proxy server to your connection settings in order to get MSN to work. Maybe something like that is also needed for your provider
Some phone operators have blocked a lot of ports in order to limit capabilities of the lines. Perhaps only http port is open so MSN can't connect as it uses a specific port range to access its servers.
In France, SFR operator is acting like this, so I can't use MSN Messenger, except if I use its own specific software, which is not very attractive.
In my case MSN, Skype, don't work with proxy.
When I deleted proxy server everything works ok.

I phoned O2 up the other day and asked them to enable WAP/GPRS on my phone which they did and asked them for all the settings to connect to websites and such, which they did and it all worked great apart from 2 programs what i wanted to use on my xda2 wont connect
First i tried MSN and that didnt work so i did a search on google and found out that a patch was needed from microsoft. I downloaded, installed and it still didnt work. Then i tried Pocket IRC (not made by microsoft so i thought it mite work) but it didnt, so i thought i would come on here and pester you lot and see if you knew if this was a common problem or if its something that i'v done...
thanks in advance,
Skillz
thats because the above programs use ports, you only get port 80 off o2.. for the internet. Theres no way to make it work
well whats the point in having the program there if we can use it
isnt there a hack of some sort that will allow me to use more ports than 80? :roll:
You can use MSN, PIRC etc with the XDA II, but it wont work over the WAP network. You have to use the MobileWeb APN, which should already be configured by the O2 Active system as the Internet Connection (as opposed to WAP, which is designated the "work" connection), but you need to make sure that the APN is enabled on your SIM card- another call to customer services!
You could also try Agile Messenger or even ChatToGo which supports all the messaging systems, but has a small subscription charge.
can anyone log on to msn messenger on XDA 2s through o2 WAP??!!!
it doesnt work on wap it runs on mobile web
on my p800 i use to use agilemessenger and i was using o2 wap and that worked. y should my xda2s be any diferent? im sure there is some proxy settings that i need to change because it worked on my p800
Through wap. No havn't tried it.
Through internet capabilities of xda2 yes.
could u tell me the settings that u are using? im still having trouble connecting. so u are saying u are using wap to access msn messenger? i didnt quite understand your post.

Sometimes I hear about a sort of proxy tunneling that can be usefull to resolve this problem. Dont ask me how
Anyone an idea how they do that?
Yeah this used to be the case. Users can now log into msn without downloading any programs, eg proxycap, which is a tunneling prog i think.

you know any tunneling program ???
together with another member of ppcweltcommunity i ported desproxy...let me see if i can dig it up today..
Yes..proxycap is the program. However like i said you dont need it no more to connect to Msn Messenger and the internet can be cofiigured for proxy anyway. YOU CAN LOG INTO MSN WITHOUT PROXYCAP OR ANY PROGRAMA BY LINKING IT TO YOUR LAPTOP/PC.

No it doesnt work here (Orange Netherlands wap-flatrate gprs)
Pocket MSN (MSN Messanger and Hotmail) only works with a direct connection the internet.
Does anybody know how to tweak it such as way (via registry setting etc) so that it can connect via the proxied internet connection.
The regular desktop MSN Messanger has the option in the app setting to allow it to work via a HTTP proxy server.
The reason I'm asking for this is that, some of us here in this forum, use the cheap GPRS service here in the US that only connects us to the internet via a HTTP proxy. We have web browsing and pop3 working, but not the MSN messanger and hotmail.
Thanks in advance for anybody that will provide some clue.

You must use a SOCKS-capable proxy. That is, not just a simple HTTP proxy. Also see http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?s=SOCKS+messenger&sentence=AND - in there, I've also elaborated on this problem.
I understand this. However, the data service we use (T-Mobile USA t-zones) does not support SOCKS. We only have HTTP proxy and WAP proxy support.
Using the same data service from my laptop (with my PPC as the wireless modem), I could run MSN Messanger from my laptop (by using the HTTP proxy).
The Pocket MSN however, does not work. I would believe there is some way to tweak it to recognize the HTTP proxy as well.
Certain carriers, including mine, restricts GPRS and forces us to use a HTTP proxy.
Windows Media Live does not support HTTP proxy, only socks proxy. I already have a SSH tunnel setup on my TyTN, but the tunnel gets disconnected every now and then, making staying connected to MSN unreliable.
I know when I used to have a Symbian60 device, there were some clients that worked through the HTTP proxy of my carrier, but either they were java based (dont want java!) or it doesnt exist for WM6.
I wonder if anyone has a MSN client that they use through the HTTP proxy of their carrier.
Thanks!
My carrier is Cricket (CDMA) and they also force us to use an http proxy.
Were you able to find an MSN Messenger (or AIM) client that will work through an http proxy?
Thanks
closest ive ever seen is www.ebuddy.com
hello, i have an unusual problem, my X1 cant use live messenger thru GPRS, after much searching on this problem on this board and others i have found out its because of my current operator, china mobile, apparently you need a special version of messenger to use it on their network, i have found the .cab for this version and it does work, but its in chinese, and since i cant read chinese and my phone doesnt display chinese characters its pretty useless to me. anyway on to my question is there anyway to take the setting from the chinese msn and import it to the live messenger already in the phone? i have included the x1 cab for chinese live messenger. any help will be greatly appreciated, thanx.
ive just realised i have a similar problem...i can browse opera using t mobile gprs mobile internet but when i try to use msn its says there a connectivity problem? Please help me. thanks
same here
same here.... the problem is that the messenger connetct through the privet network (wap dialer!!) and all the other programs (browser,mail,...) connect through the MY ISP data dialer...the messenger should connect (like all the other programs) through the data connaction.
i solved it by leaving only one data connaction but now i dont have wap (mms) dialer
my phone works fine, my only problem is that you need a special chinese version of live messenger to connect to the live messengers servers thru china mobile gprs. and if someone can tell me how i can take that X1.cab that i uploaded extract the connection info, take a english version of live messenger recompile it with the bits of the chinese version so i can use messenger and be able to read all the menus and such...
How can i do this? Please help me to make it so that i only have one data connection so msn works...ty
for your problem just go on manage my connections delete all the connections and make one connection with your service provider settings and name it The Internet
Still not quite sure...bit of a newbie. Can you please explain further. Ty
