Has anyone been able to use SKYFIRE, whenever I have installed it (hard reset after another) it still won't connect.
Anyone have a solution?
I've had this problem, Skyfire started but kept displaying "check flight mode".
It was due to the proxy server used by my operator (SFR, France).
Under settings->connections->connections, uncheck "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet" (write down your proxy server adress in case you have to use it again).
Worked for me but be careful, your operator may charge you extra money for using the Internet without any proxy...

Are you with ATT or T-mobile? If ATT, are you with the new att (MediaNet) or ATT Wireless (mMode)? If T-mobile and if not mistaken, a full data package is required, not just the t-zone (which seems to be limited net access)
If MediaNet, there shouldn't be any issues. If mMode, there is a lil tweaking to the connection settings that will need to take place.
I'm using mMode on 8525 (TyTn) and 8925/Tilt (TyTn II). Let me know if I can provide the settings to you.

Hey thanks for getting back to me on this, yes if ya haven't noticed, I have the ATT badge on my profile hehe...
But it turns out, because I'm still under my blackberry data service, it may prevent me from doing certain things since most of blackberry's internet goes through their server and then back to media net.

Just thought I'd ask if anyone has any suggestions on this problem.
I just came here today from PocketPCPassion's forum, read some of the WM2003 posts, and decided to give it a shot. I first installed the xda developers ROM 1.2, then installed the WM2003 update (the .zip from the FTP server posted here as an IP address, login xda/xda).
(This is a T-Mobile device BTW).
I created a GPRS connection using internet2.voicestream.com as usual, and it connects just fine. However, attempts to browse with PIE result in "The page you are looking for cannot be found" errors. I've even tried browsing by IP address in case of DNS problems, no difference.
However, I set up a POP account in Inbox, and I can send/receive e-mail just fine, so I'm stumped.
Any ideas? I also tried VPN (internet3.voicestream.com), but it won't connect at all. I'm not sure if I need to request provisioning for VPN from T-Mobile.
As it turns out, this may be a local issue. I popped my SIM into a t68i and dialed-up via bluetooth from a WinCE device, and had the same problem there. Mail works, Web doesn't. Guess I'll call T-Mobile and see what's up. We had some severe storms here in Memphis Tuesday which have left lingering problems, this is probably related to that.
WOW just woke to the same problem, but hey you know me!
Try changing your AP from internet2.voicestream.com to wap.voicesteam.com that goo me back online.
If also iff the above doesn't work you might try running welcome.exe from the windows roor folder.
Good Luck!
Thanks Qman, that works for me too! I guess there's something wrong with internet2? Anyone else have this problem?
I didn't think T-Mobile allowed anything but WAP over the wap AP. Now that they've gone unlimited data though, maybe they don't care anymore...

Interesting...Here in the SF Bay area, i could connect to internet3 all day yesterday, but couldn't get mail or ie. It was as if t-mo usa's connection between their GPRS and the internet was down for a while...
..but t-mo usa use cinguliar's network here, so that could also have been an issue.
Maybe it was a temporary national t-mo problem.

I'm using an XDA T-Mobile PPC (SX-56 ATT unlocked with 4.01.16 and Radio ver 6.25.02).
I wanted to see if anyone had the same problem and can help getting me back on WAP. Currently not signed up for any data plans, but using the GPRS WAP. Been unable to connect to the internet since last Weds. Antennna confirms that GPRS is connected from the signal using the the standard TM configuration from this site. IE hangs and eventually times out with a page not found. When the handheld is in the cradle, IE connects to the internet without problems.
Prior to this downtime it's been pretty solid, accessed as expected and never had this issue before. Did a hard reset to rebuild, but not fixed, however did notice the network search has recently been slow. Not sure some changes happened since TM stores started receiving the HP6315.
Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
TIA
T-Mobile had blocked access for a while, but this morning on my way to work, I got some email on my XDA! I'm writing this now on my XDA, GPRS connection, and I haven't gotten a data plan. So maybe they are allowing "free WAP" access again. I am in Atlanla, so it may take longer in other places.
I have the same setup (XDA1, former ATT SX-56, now using the SIM card from my t-mobile Blackberry)
I can get voice to work and the connection shows GPRS, but whenever I try to open a web page I am confronted with an authentication dialog. Can anyone offer any advice? I do have the data plan with the Blackberry...maybe that is the problem?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
I had the same problem when I tried to "borrow" my wife's sim from her blackberry. It has something to do with the way they set up blackberries... I believe either they access the internet differently than other phones, or their data plans are structured differently or some combination of that.
I hope that helps...
Hello all, I own an 8125, but I do not own a data plan. Since I have wifi at school, I want to configure my phone to where it will NEVER connect via GPRS/Edge, or any other kind of net source that will cost me money. Since i heard if you walk outside the range it will attempt to connect via cingular provided net. I really cannot afford for this to happen. So what I am trying to do is disable everything but wifi, but I dont want to permantly disable it though, as I will be getting a data plan in 6 months or so. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
could i use this program to do that? http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...ays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=agile+messenger
I have a cingular 8125 on the cingular network
this would be great for me also
well i just deleted the GPRS profile from the connections...but it might have resulted in some isses with connecting to my work network
i think you will have a problem with the mms.
right :?
is there a way keeping it but not letting it to auto connect?
I had the same Problem at my university and fixed it here:
Settings->Connections->Advanced->Choose Networks
For "Programs with automatic internet access use..." I've chosen "ISP" (which has an empty profile, if not, you can edit it and delete everything).
I hope you can understand what I mean, I tried to translate as I have a German ROM.
Regards
Carsten
Carsten, I chose "My Work Network" instead and nixed the GPRS profile as the OP did. I get no more attempts to access anything except wifi when it is enabled, which is ideal for me.
I deleted the gprs thing, and it seemed to work, BUT somehow I got a $350 bill :0
I called Cingular, They were able to turn it off on there end.
They also didnt charge me for the bill
So here's the deal:
I've been using DirectPush for a year now, and I'd like to keep using it for my company/personal mail.
I've just taken on a client that has Exchange with BES, and they would like to give me an email account on that server. While they've offered to give me a CrackBerry, I'd just assume not have to deal with two devices (how anti-convergent!).
Is it possible to have both DirectPush and BBConnect on the same device?
I suspect that in order to get BB Connect working, I'll need to switch to a data plan with access to BB's APN. If I do that, will it prevent me from reaching my hosted Exchange server?
Any experience/insights welcome...

The two email accounts will work together just fine, but the issue you will run into is that BBConnect sets up it's own data connection to Blackberry.net and will fight with other apps on your hermes that want to use the wap.cingular connection. BBConnect usually wins this fight. Thus, if you want to use both, you will need to just disable and enable the Blackberry.net connection in BBConnect when you want to check those emails.
Thanks for the response... which Cingular data plan do you have?
No problem.
I use PDA Connect for Blackberry Connect Unlimited. I no longer have access to isp.cingular, so I have to use wap.cingular, but it seems just as fast. Can't get Cingular Video to work, but I'm not sure if that's a data plan problem or just how my 8525 is configured.
by the way, have you ever used Cingular Answer Tones?
My brother uses it and has "Big Bottoms" playing every time I call him instead of a ring. I always laugh.
"talk about bun cakes, my girl's got em"
Ha! Somehow I don't think my wife would be terribly amused with that answertone...
;-)

so are you switching back and forth between wap.cingular and the blackberry apn?
yep. Using black 2.0, when I want to use IE or check regular outlook pop email, it connects to wap.cingular. Inevitably though, the blackberry.net connection fires up after a random amount of time to reconnect and disables the wap.cingular connection. This is why I sometimes just disable the BBConnect app unless I'm using it.
By the way, you can set Cingular Answertones to only play the "special" song for specific numbers, so your wife wouldn't have to hear it.
hi guys. i have one big problem, my opera, nimbuzz and others aren't connecting on edge, 3g or hsdpa, while internet explorer, weather have no problem at all. at home on wifi there is no problem, but that is all about , portability, no? i do have a data plan, and i haven't got this problem on my topaz. i'm on orange romania, and orange guys give me some bull**** theory that i need fixed not dynamic ip, witch is payd. can someone please help me with that?
Had similar problems in the past and it was the "connection setup" sending me through a t-mobile proxy rather than "straight out"...
Try:
Settings / Wireless Controls / Menu / Connections / "Set up my Proxy Server"
Remove the tick box next to the proxy server and ok the screens - has worked for me in the past (i'm on t-mobile UK).
Just in case make a note of the proxy settings so you can put them back if you have too !!!
A bit off topic, but does anybody know how to disable 3g connection on the HD2. There's no slider in the comm manager like I had on my diamond.
Would it be possible to install a different comm manager.
still not
thanks for advice, but tried that and still nothing. very weird, opera mini works over edge
3g
there is for above question about 3g a prog commanager8 or something like that enables you 8 tabs in wireless manager, including 3g one
go to settings>connections>advanced network> and then choose the GPRS tab and choose either pap or chap. it might work that way.
no luck
no luck this way either. i don't know what this could be. i forgot to mention that i bought my hd2 from expansys uk, but i don't think this could cause a problem using it in romania, it is unlocked from carrier
