proxy config APP ?

Anybody know some application that can configure proxy (use ou not) in each connection?
I use proxy for GSM data connection to work remotly (work network), but when connect by WiFi or GPRS I don't use proxy and have to enter configuration connections to disable...
Can I assign proxy settings to each connection?
Thanks

i had the same problem as well, do a search for proxy and you'll find it, also go to start>help and search proxy and it will tell you there.

But, do you know any software that can do it???
I know configure proxy any time but i want an app that can do it for me (in each connection)!
Thanks

Change which network each connection uses (ie work, internet - make more of your own) then each one can have different proxy settings.

Hello,
But at WiFi connection I can't, because there is not any modem config.!
Anyone?
Thanks

Ok, this thread is a little old, but it is close to what I am looking at.
I just got my bill from O2 and I have been charged £1.50 for "GPRS data" although I think it is actually MMS messages being sent or received by GPRS. I am guessing this is because it is set up incorrectly by me.
I did have it set to collect MMS over the "mobile.o2.co.uk" settings (as opposed to the "wap.o2.co.uk" settings) and wifi could be enabled, but if I tried to use the browser without enabling wifi it automatically dialled the GPRS connection.
Could someone give me an idea on how to set it so that
A) MMS messages only count as MMS messages and are sent and received by GPRS.
B) WiFi is the preferred connection for everything else.
C) GPRS is available if WiFi is not available (and preferably after getting confirmation from the user), ie I dont have to find the settings and re-enter them.
I realise this is probably not possible, but any help and/or pointers are appreciated.

Cannot connect with current connection

When I try to sync I keep getting the message "Cannot connect with current connection settings" But it allows me on the internet. What settings (if any) should I use?

are your settings correct??
(we need to know which ROM you sue aswell as your exchange provider)

Rom is Dutty's WM 6 medium
Settings I double checked
Exchange provider is 4smartphone

restart your device...
as in a soft reset...

There is a list of ActiveSync error codes/messages on the MS web site and the ones that relate to your error message are:
0x85020006 - Cannot connect with current connection settings.
To change your connection setting, tap Settings. This error code is typically caused by not having a valid network or modem connection set up. Check your connection settings, and then try to synchronize again.

Go to Start | Programs | ActiveSync, then when Activesync loads, go to Menu | Options and you'll see the Exchange Server sync details - tap on Settings | Next, then the Advanced button and you'll see what connection the server is configured to use....it should be "Internet". If it's not, then you probably need to re-configure the whole Exchange Activesync set up.
EDIT: ....assuming Walshieau's suggestion of a soft reset doesn't sort it
HTH,
Mark.

I did a soft reset as walshieau suggested, it didn't fix it.
Double checked the stetting to make sure it is on "internet" as Mark Crouch suggested, it didn't fix it.

i found after about 20 hours, this started happening to me too. only outlook though. IE worked fine.
quitting activesync then rechecking my email fixed it.
even though that isn't what this thread stated, it gave me the idea thanks Mark Crouch

Any more follow up with this? I've been having the same issue, with no resolution yet.

I just gave up and am now using opera for the internet. It bugs me though that I can't just figure it out.

Got it...
First make sure the settings are correct for your device.
The connection that must be used is "the internet" not your 3G connection.

If you receive the error messege "Cannot connect with current connection" disconnect your USB cable. For me the error was caused by active sync

He might mean, go to:

And set both of the two options to whatever your main 3G connection is called.

Help, really annoying problem!

Hi
Hoping someone can help me!
My Touch HD has been working fine up until yesterday, and now for some reason it is no longer sending emails. I know the settings are right because it was working fine until yesterday.
I have done a hard reset, and installed an alternative ROM but still no luck. My email server itself is working fine.
Any ideas please, it's driving me mad!
Thanks in advance.
Ben.

Anyone help!

Ben,

Also are synchornising your mail by using WiFi or 3G
Provide Sreenshots if you can

Hi - I'm having a similar problem on my Touch HD. I have a POP email account set up which connects and downloads emails absolutely fine when I'm on Wifi or connected via Activesync. However when I am on a data connection (i.e. GPRS, 3G, etc) it comes up with an "synchronisation error", and suggests I edit my connection settings. The data connections works for everything else, including web browsing and other applications that require it. Its almost as if the mail application isn't being allowed access to the data connection unless its over wifi.

Check your service provider.
I had this problem once and they were "playing" with the POP access over GPRS.
I would give them a quick call.
Regards, D

Yup, sounds like I am having the same problem as DaveHodgkinson.
Can download emails fine, can access the internet fine. Just can't send emails. I know all my settings are correct as they were working fine previously, plus I can send/receive via Outlook and webmail absolutely fine. I have a QIQ hosting package with my own domain that I use for email.
I have read about other people having this same error on their WinMo devices, but have not been able to find a working solution for it.
The error message I get is "the message could not be sent. Check that you have network coverage and that your account information is correct. The try sending again".
Well I do have network coverage, and the account information is correct, so what next!!
This fault renders a major function of the phone unusable.

I doubt this is a "fault".
I'll bet your mobile provider is blocking port 25 making everything else not matter.
Get a telnet client and make sure you can telnet to your mail server on port 25.
Use your wireless providers SMTP server.

From searching google this problem appears to be too widespread to be operator specific. I have tried an alternate port and that also fails. I am on o2.

anybody anymore ideas?

Planetgong,
If you are on O2 UK, this worked for me:
If you can't get your own email providers SMTP settings to work then you can use O2 settings for sending email (while keeping your own email provider for incoming email). To do this your main email settings should look like this...
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
Host Name: smtp.o2.co.uk
User Name: [email protected]
Password: youro2password
Your Advanced settings should look like this...
Outgoing Settings
Use SSL: Off
Authentication: Password
Server Port: 25
If you can't remember your O2 username and password (you will have registered this when you activated your phone) then just register another one at www.o2.co.uk (the 'Register' link is near the top left corner).

Hi
Thanks for the reply. I've just tried that but get the same error message. Can you tell me where I can find the advanced settings?

Planetgong,
Assuming you can log onto your o2 mail box on your PC/laptop. And sign out again.
Go through email setup, my outgoing mail server is smtp.o2.co.uk, tick outgoing server requires authentication, untick use the same name and password. Under "advanced server settings" (at bottom of screen) have both boxes unticked. Make network connection O2 active (not The Internet).
done and next.
Enter O2 user name and password
continue to end of setup.
Then try it!!

Hi
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately this still didn't work. It is like my Touch HD has suddenly decided to stop all outgoing SMTP connections. I have tried so many different things now and it still isn't working!
Just found this :

Although the problem is supposed to be solved on the version of Windows Mobile on the Touch HD, it clearly isn't! Cheers Microsoft.
Not sure what to do now. Don't see why I should accept a phone that all the features don't work on?

I've also got the .cab fix installed linked to by the traceyandmatt site.

hi,
disable your proxy. that might help
goto settings, tab connections, then select connections
next select 'setup my proxy'. go to tab 'proxy server' and uncheck 'this network uses a proxy server'

This is how to connect to proxy wifi (WM 6.1).

Many people have struggled to connect to wifi using proxy. I also used to struggle. But now I have found a very simple way. It works 100% of the time. Here is the procedure.
How to set up proxy Wifi
------------------------
Go to Settings->Connections->Connections
Click on Advanced tab
Click Select Networks
Click New
Enter Name "Wifi With Proxy"
Click Advanced
Select "This network connects to the internet"
Select "This network uses a proxy
Select Advance
Put your proxy setting here.
How to set up non-proxy Wifi
----------------------------
Go to Settings->Connections->Connections
Click on Advanced tab
Click Select Networks
Click New
Enter Name "Wifi Without Proxy"
Click Advanced
Select "This network connects to the internet"
UnSelect "This network uses a proxy
Connect to wifi using Proxy.
----------------------------
Disable Wifi
Go to Settings->Connections->Connections
Click on Advanced tab
Click Select Networks
Select "Wifi With Proxy" for both Internet and Private.
Click Ok
Click Ok
Enable Wifi
It is important that you disable wifi, then select n/w and then enable wifi.
Connect to wifi without Proxy i.e direct wifi.
---------------------------------------------
Disable Wifi
Go to Settings->Connections->Connections
Click on Advanced tab
Click Select Networks
Select "Wifi Without Proxy" for both Internet and Private.
Click Ok
Click Ok
Enable Wifi
It is important that you disable wifi, then select n/w and then enable wifi.
Every time you switch from proxy to non proxy, you will have to do steps of "Connect to wifi without Proxy i.e direct wifi." manually (unless someone can write a mort sscript or some thing, if one does, then please PM me).
Everytime you switch from proxy to non-proxy, you will have to do steps of "Connect to wifi using Proxy" manually.
Enjoy.

Thank you
Thank you so much.
These steps worked like a charm. I was not able to find the details anywhere.

Didn't work for me and I don't know what's the problem. When I put my proxy settings into Opera directly via opera:config, it works flawlessly. When I use your method (and I follow the steps exactly), it doesn't.

Dear friend,
i could not find wifi without proxy,
infact my wifi is no turning on only
can anybody help me on this
please await for your expert advise
i am using imate pda2k pocket pc

That's a wrong place to ask your question, buddy... If that's a custom ROM you are using on your device and there is no Wi-Fi, you should ask the ROM cook (the person who posted the ROM) in the thread you downloaded it from. Or try the dedicated forum part for your device here.

Unable to send attachments via SMS

Hi all,
Got my HD2 yesterday and have been busy doing the various tweaks, regedits etc and so far so good.
However ive run into my first real problem. I cannot bluetooth data to my wifes phone and i also cannot send sms with audio or video attachments.
I get a dialling connection popping up advising that its trying to dial from "mobile" and i have an option to "dismiss" but the message keeps popping up until i finally get a message saying that the original sms failed to send.
I can send normal sms and emails fine. Just sms with file attachments fail me.
Any ideas?
BTW im with o2!

Sms with file attachment, do you mean maybe MMS?

LMAO yeah sorry!
Not got my brain engaged today!

its probably something to do with the MMS settings. check with your network make sure they're correct. Its rare, but sometimes a network will change settings and HTCs defaults will be out of date.
As for bluetooth, try pairing the devices using a simple 4 numerical password, complex passwords can be incompatible with some devices. Also try reversing which device is host/visible....I hate bluetooth sometimes

Think i have the settings from another site.
Now ive no idea where to go on my hd2 to input all the settings?
Anyone give me a pointer as to where i configure the mms?

Tut tut, no-one ever reads the manual anymore
One trick you could try (assuming you can connect to the internet over the phone) is update the database of settings on the phone. Scroll over to the settings menu > Wireless Controls > Data Connection, Make sure you have the correct country and network selected already. If so click Menu > Update Database> Update Database. Reboot your phone and see if it works.
Ok assuming that didn't work and you still having MMS problems you can check your MMS settings by scrolling over to the SMS/MMS menu > All Messages>Menu>Settings>Options>Menu>MMS Server. Select the server you want to use or make a new server, you can input your MMS settings in there.

I have the following config in my mms settings for o2:
Server name: 02 active MMS
IP address: 193.113.200.195
Port No: 8080
Server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connect via; o2 active
Send limit: 300KB
WAP Version: WAP 2.0
When i try and send an mms the following happens:
Popup box saying:
Cannot connect
Dialed:
Cannot connect for an unknown reason (then loads of other txt)
and then 2 options at the bottom a blue "settings" link and a "dismiss" option.
When i click on settings it takes me to a connections menu where i the following options:
My work network:
Add a modem connection
Add a new vpn server connection
setup my proxy server
Manage existing connections
and then 2 tabs at the bottom for tasks and advanced.

I've got exactly the same settings as you, and it just worked for me. Check with O2 - they may have a problem at their end, or something switched off for you.

Well ive got a 16gb card coming this week so once i get that im going to do a hard reset and set everything up properly (just been messing so far) and then see what happens. If not then ill phone o2.
I forgot to mention that i inputted those settings but in the "connect via:" drop down menu i have no option for "o2 active"
I just have work network, mms network, home network etc.

I don't really know what to say. I just followed his instructions word for word, and it worked fine for me. Where are you having trouble? At the first instruction, or part way through? How far do you get before you get something you can't do?

When i click on data connection i get the same error msg pop up saying "cannot connect"
then options to dismiss or a blue settings link

Ok now sorted. I deleted all my mms settings, went to data connection under wireless controls, made sure it was set to UK and o2 post pay and then made sure auto configuration was selected.
It updated my settings, just rebooted and tried an mms and all working fine!

Okay, this sounds like it's a data connection issue, rather than an MMS issue, as clicking "Data connection" will simply try to turn it on (if it's off).
Try this and let me know how you get on...
Go to settings tab, click Menu, All Settings, Connections, Connection Setup.
Make sure that the correct country and O2 are selected and click OK.
See if you still have the same problem.
If you do, I suspect that you can't do this next step, but it's worth a try.
Go to settings tab, click Menu, All Settings, Connections, Connection Setup, Menu, Update Database, Update Database, Yes.
It should either tell you that your settings have been updated, or that you already have the most updated settings.
If it said they've been updated, go back to the country and provider screen, make sure it's the right selections and click OK.

Very strange - I don't know why that would be. It's a way to ensure that you have the latest settings for your provider, and obviously quite useful when you have connection issues.
Never heard of it not being available though. At least you got the problem sorted without needing it!
