Any one had any problems doing a send/receive on the vodafone branded rom? I've set it up fine but it only seems to want to download them using a specific connection. If I set the network connection to Internet, then I can only download the emails if i'm connected via wifi and the only way to download them if i'm on the go is to go into the advanced server settings a then specify that I want to connect via wap...
It wont let me specify to use any connection available. For example, if there's wifi connection, use that, if not use wap.
Is this a common issue or just with the vodafone branded c**p?
Ok so i've partially resolved my issue above. I removed the proxy settings which now means that if I'm not connected to wifi, it will dial up wap. But now my problem is removing the proxy has removed access to windows live/hotmail. Vodafone have really screwed with the settings it's pi**ed me off... Anyone have a cab for windows live?

Hi all,
I have an XDAII from the Spanish carrier Movistar (TSM500). I want the device to access internet. I have WIFI in my office, so I would like to use this infrastructure in the device instead of GPRS.
I have a SDIO card from SOCKET that works correctly with the device and I can connect internet via proxy.
I would like to know how must I configure the connection settings in order to make it transparent. I mean, if there is WIFI the device must use WIFI it not the device has to use GPRS.
Does anybody know the settings I must to apply to the device network configuration (work,internet…) in order to get this WIFI, GPRS priorities?
Thanks and regards from Spain
...and to make your question more complicated, to setup wifi with proxy, gprs with no proxy and mms connection with no proxy. All these together?
so be it - manemoi
T,
Exactly!
Hey Manemoi, that's EXACTLY What I would like!
Is there a way to have the Magician choose this automatically? For instance, I can use my Sandisk SD WiFi 256 only when I set both my ISP and Work settings to an emtpy profile. It then seems to know it should use the WiFi connection available. I can then Internet, send mail Everything! Perfect! When I take out my WiFi card and activate my Active Synch with BlueTooth, it works too, Can internet over Active Synch without problems. But Mail will connect but then not send mail for some reason...
Whenever I want to use GPRS, I gave to goto connections and then manually change the modems there for ISP to my GPRS Modem Setting. Isn't there an easier way? Can't Internet explorer be told to use whatever conection available? Instead of ALWAYS connection to whatever is set under the My ISP setting?
I'd be interested if you ever got an answer to this as I am now at the same point

Anyon e work this out?
I have a proxy setup to allow me to connect to T-mobile's internet. I noticed that when the proxy is enabled in connection settings, my wifi does not connect to websites. However, when I disable the proxy from my gprs connection wifi works fine.
Is this normal? Is it maybe a bug with the rom im using?
Normal.
...
I have searched everywhere and instead of starting another post on the same issue I will post on this one.
I have the same issue, and understand its normal. Is there a way around this because re typing in proxy settings just to go on gprs internet is a annoying and incovienent. I want to be able to go on wifi and have everything work fine. When I disconnect wifi I can then access the internet via gprs proxy.
AT&T included both an enable proxy cab and a disable proxy cab...
However Im in the process of moving and my main computer is down...
When I get it back up I'll pull those cabs off of the phone, perhaps they will work for tmobile..beats going into the connection settings...
After all of this I found a fix.

Someone should really sticky this because this helps so much especially since I like not having to pay for my T-mobile internet via the proxy. Now I dont have to delete the proxy. My activesync and wifi work flawlessly as well as GPRS Edge.
Please don't kill me but I want to know
HOW to make use WiFi instead of network on browsers and mail, once I connect?
once you connect you to a wifi network it should be just like using wifi on your computer.
a more specific question or example may allow someone to help you more.
The phone uses Wifi where possible by default. However as my push mail is running over the Vodafone Internet APN I have found some occasions where my browsing session wasn't using Wifi.
So I created my own homepage which tells me the IP address I'm on and works out if it's my wifi router or the Vodafone Internet. It also has all my bookmarks, which is a better than the built in solution from Opera.
If you aren't using the GPRS all day, try NoData which can block all GPRS usage.

Aha, the old friend from MySymbian
Well I'll try that NoData but good to hear X1 wants to use it by default (when connected). I don't use any push messages.
It's a Vodafone ROM thing. if you flash to another ROM it will work fine.
WiFi problem
No man, I have a Vodafone UK Xperia. problem with Wifi initially, then I've ROM it to the generic UK version...now it connects to Wifi but I cannot browse anything with it. The pages don't load and status keeps saying 'loading...' but nothing happens and after a min or so, a message saying that I have to check my internet connection...not connected!

Then you have your Wifi settings incorrect.
How come u say my Wifi settings are incorrect? How can I correct it? In wat way? my laptop etc connects to the Wifi fine...and the phone as well...but it just that the phone doesnt seem to load anything from internet when I'm connected.
First Check if you used the correct Key for your wifi if thats fine then ....
I've never had this problem with the xperia but I have had with other windows mobile phones it was probable because of older versions of windows mobile, if wifi is connected fine go to Settings -> Connections Tab -> Connections -> Advanced Tab -> Select Networks, then select My Network for both drop downs.

Because you are unable to surf the internet, which points to either the settings entered incorrectly (normally when using WEP) or your router needs a firmware upgrade.
Ok here's a complete answer to my question
HOW to make X1 to connect to WiFi ONLY:
Install NoData (thanks for tip!!!)
Turn this on to NOT transfer any network data.
All the browsers I tried (Opera Mini 4.2, Opera Mobile 9.5)
automatically connect by WiFi, so it's great.
Email NOT. But it's enough to
go to email account settings and in advanced server settings instead of your providers network
choose "The Internet".
Violaa, the email account also connects through WiFi.
Hope that helps somebody
Where do i get no data please
There's one topic here called no data cab file!!
Just find it and it's there!
i got problems with my fritzbox 7270, too.
but i solved it.
just set the 802 adaptor manual to your wifi settings.
free ip adress in your segment, gateway, nameserver.
i think its a dhcp problem, with my 7270.
Originally I had the vodafone firmware and my email would only work through GPRS or wifi.
I reflashed with firmware R2A generic and it was working fine through both GPRS and wifi.
Randomly one day it just stopped working. I can now only access my email using wifi. I can't log into windows live unless i'm on wifi either, but the internet, google maps and dashwire all work using gprs
Email says
Error Syncronising
and i get a system message saying
Cannot connect wtih current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap settings.
But obviously I don't know what to change because the other things I mentioned work fine. I get the same problem if I start the data connection first
I would check in settings->connections->connections->advanced-select network
if the 2 dropdown are set to my homenetwork it will only use wifi to access
Please check my topic, i kinda have the same problem......

Hi there kind people of XDA.
after installing a new rom I encouter a problem with setting up my gmail account. It seems as if the HTC mail client isn't willing to work with my wifi connection and only working with the data (which is disabled).
when I send/recieve, it tells me that it cannot connect and that I should press - settings. After going into settings I have 3 options for my work connection.
the first one is where I think the problem is:
*add a new modem connection.
after I chose that I've been asked to choose a modem and I dont have a wifi ot the broadcom lan card. only bluetooth, cellular line, cellular line (GPRS) and hayes compatible on COM1.
Any idea?
go to settings, connections, connections, advanced, select networks. Then change the first setting to 'work'. I have a dutch version, so the names might be slightly different.
thanks but I already tried it. The problem is that when setting up a new connection I cant use the broadcom as the connection modem!
Now I know my phone isnt using the same network as you. I have only one cellular account that I connect to. For this example I will call it "My Connection" I have that set in Network management to be the default connection for the internet.
Now when I go to my email connection settings I can choose that connection or a few others. If I choose "My Connection" then the email will only connect though cellular data. But if I choose "Internet" then it will connect through both.
So when I have wifi present I can connect with email, mms, surf with opera, and update weather all through wifi. When my wifi goes down or gets turned off everything reverts to cellular data.
ditto - on 1.48 i get 'Internet' as well as the T-mobile internet and T-mobile MMS settings. internet seems to latch onto anything that has a public ip - and starts with wifi.
I have found that one thing which stops email sync is not wifi/HSDPA data, but rather the exchange domain setting disappearing sporadically.
do u have bsb tweaks the same thing happend to me and in bsb i had wifi disable go in bsb and enable it.
please see if at
