Hi all
I am using my XDA IIi on Vodafone but when i connect to GPRS the first time it works perfectly but if I reconnect to the GPRS service either hours or days later it says the i cant connect to "internet" which is the APN name for mobile web on vodafone.
The only way to rectify this is is to switch flight mode on and off again.
Has anyone else noticed this and if so have they found a solution?
Thanks
Gordon
Common problem I'm afraid. Happens with the O2 or i-mate ROM for me, and many others.
Can only hope they fix it soon.
Hmmmm thats not good news. Its also quite interesting as it didnt used to do that.
Is this a problem that drifts in and out or just one that develops and then you are stuck with. Ive had my IIi since march and its only started doing this in the last couple of weeks.
Hopefully a fix will come out eventually for it are any of the roms, imate etc any better?
Cheers

Well I prefer the i-mate ROM images as they aren't network branded, but they are all pretty much the same past the customisations, Microsoft release the updates, HTC customise it, and the company that brands the particular device customises it.
Thanks for the info.
Are the imate roms on the ftp somewhere? I couldnt find them. I have the new O2 rom that someone has added radio 1.3 to running at the moment but it did not fix the problem.
Cheers

hi guys n girls
ive just purchased an MDA Compact on a TMobile UK contract and im having some problems.... last night i tried to connect to the GPRS and it wouldnt connect, kept timing out on the connection and giving me an error... so i tried resetting the phone! it worked! connected straight away no problems.... so i put it dwn to a small glitch...maybe? until tonight its done it again! it wont connect to the GPRS andi ve had to reset the phone to get it goign again?
I use Bluetooth with ActiveSync and Bluetooth to my GPS receive for TomTom 5, apart from that the phone is pretty much standard

hi
wow! thats a looooong thread
ok i think ive fixed my phone now
i used that Imate fix that someone posted and it "seems" to have worked..... for now!
installed patch, reset phone, connected to gprs, synced, check gprs, phone call, check gprs.... and this morning its still going!!
cheers guys
Here is what I've done so far. Anyone with experience or anyone who has successfully gotten their setup to work, please chime in !
1. Install the JASJAM_WWE_1.20.305.3_1.20.305.104_1.07.03.10_ship.exe rom. Test. Works fine when connected by USB, syncs to any Exchange server with no problem.
However, When I try to sync to any Exchange Server or a different Exchange server through the GPRS connection, it sits on "Synchronizing folders", then "Looking for Changes" and finally after a few minutes of doing nothing, it just gives up and goes back to "Waiting for network".
2. As a test, I've tried to install a different ROM. This time ME_DT_WWE_1182553_106_10303_Ship.exe. Now when I try to connect to the GPRS connection, it retries the dial twice, then it "Dialed : open.softbank.ne.jp. Cannot connect for an unknown reason. Check your connection settings, etc.". This is after installing the SoftBank extended ROM and doing a hard reset, which worked fine for the previous i-mate ROM.
Anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

Wireless OK
After doing some more testing, and changing back to the original i-mate ROM, it seems to sync to Exchange just fine using a Wireless connection.
However going back to GPRS, and it's back to doing exactly the same "synchronising folders"/"looking for changes".
To this date, I have never had a successful GPRS sync - has anyone else?
Japan users?
There are no Japan users with SoftBank GPRS ActiveSync working....?
Hi there, Andrew (you sent him an email) point me to this thread, and will try to reply here. Actually I didn't flash my X01HT yet, but I use Exchange daily on my HTC Mteor and HTC Universal with open.softbank.ne.jp, it works flawlessly. I am waiting for HTC Taiwan to send me back my HTC Hermes (Dopod) back from reparation to try.
But ! Even with my X01HT in Japanese I have sometimes difficulties to connect to the internet and I also have the same error as yours. So this is not really only a ROM issue here.
Now I hard reseted my X01HT and soft reset it before installing the Extended ROM, so there, I do not have any Softbank crap installed my my device and once the open.soft... stuff set I have no problem neither.
Finally I know that some ROM are not Japanese network friendly, for example on my HTC Universal, with an iMATE ROM, I cannot place any Video call, nor access to my voice mailbox correctly, I can dial 1416, but when I want to access to my voice mail... it doesn't work.
Now on ALL my device here in Japan I only install a Dopod ROM, they are, as far as I am concerned the best ROM ever made and with them EVERYTHING WORKS, and I will strongly advise you to try to install a Dopod Rom on your Hermes. If you do not have it on the FTP, I have one on my desktop at the office that HTC Taiwan sent me (HER_DopodAsia_1237074_1060010_WWE_SHIP)
Fantastic, I'll try to install the rom at www.dopodasia.com/download/HER_DopodAsia_1237074_1060010_WWE_SHIP.exe
and see how I go. Thanks very much for your help and ideas.
Sorry to hear about your sick HTC Hermes!

After flashing the Hermes with the new Dopod image, it keeps giving me a
Network Wizard error.
I tried adding the open.softbank.ne.jp settings, but it didn't work.
Then I replaced the Extended ROM with the Softbank Extended ROM. Then the settings for SoftBank were automatically configured - but don't work. It says "the current connection cannot be used for your request". Also, the network wizard comes up every soft reset and says "Your current operator (44020) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor".
This is kind of confusing - do you have any advice? Did you use the Extended ROM as it was?
Thanks very much for your help
"Your current operator (44020) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor".
Do not worry for that I have the same problem.
Now you are telling me that you cannot login at all, cannot surf at least the internet?
Just a quick thought... my SBS do not have a real SSL, this is a SBS SSL, so when I quote the box SSL connection in my Mteor or Hermes... it won7t work... try to unquote this box...
Hi there,
Thanks for your reply. I've been messing around on this all night/all day again, and I've made some slow painful progress!
Firstly, I'm glad you had the same problem. Now I'm reassured that the problems are not related.
Next up, I've been trying to get the internet working. I managed to get it to connect before, but whenever I tried to access any site through IE, I got the error "エラーが発生しました。リクエストが不正です。 wj46000e".
I have since done a few hard-resets, and now it doesn't connect, despite me putting in the connection details 10's of times. I now get the error "Dialed : open.softbank.ne.jp. Cannot connect for an unknown reason"
Did you ever have these kinds of problems?
What kind of extended rom are you using? I just copied and pasted the whole Softbank Extended ROM, which worked perfectly on the JASJAM ROM.
If you have any ideas, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks very much

Ok so this stuff

I also get this error while ago... actually the first time I had my X01HT and with the Japanese ROM.
I really do not know what is going on with your device, I just hardreset my HTC Universal and put ALL the setting by hands, NO cab from crap Softbank, and it WORKS !
We should maybe meet one day, and try to let me see your device...
Fantastic - you're really giving me hope that one day soon I'll have a fully functioning device!!
I'll try restoring the original Extended ROM and inputting all the settings manually again. Hopefully it'll work this time.
I'd love to meet up for a chat and a show and tell session! I'd like to see your fully functioning device. Send me a private msg and I'll reply with my Skype/Email address.

Ok Will PM U, but just for reference I flash back my Universal to its orginal ROM and not the 1.90 that we can found here, and straight after the flashing, I put manually the Softbank setting and... WORKS ! I am sure you made a mistake somewhere this is not possible otherwise
Ah ok I see... so you installed your original ROM. Is that available for download anywhere? I'd like to replicate your setup as closely as possible.

I just tried installing the other Dopod ROM - with exactly the same results. "cannot connect for an unknown reason". This same stuff worked perfectly on the JASJAM ROM, so I am starting to think these problems are somehow ROM related.
Where did you get your ROM from again?

This is a Rom for my universal, not my Hermes, My Hermes with a Dopod rom will be sent back to me today. And since my wife want to use the Japanese X01HT I didn't flash it to US... anyway let's meet and check this out.
Guys, are you using the standard Softbank PC Site Direct connection?
If so, you'll never get Exchange Activesync working unless you uncheck the box for "This server requires SSL" AND the Exchange administrator has configured the system to allow non-SSL connections.
Softbank's "open.softbank.ne.jp" connection is anything BUT open. They are doing port blocking and currently appear to only allow port 80, 25, 110 unless you use Pocket IE. This means that ActiveSync and most IM applications fail.
Softbank is reported to say that they plan to begin supporting Exchange ActiveSync "sometime in December" - until then, the port is closed and there is nothing you can do to make it work.
The workaround is to use [email protected] (but this can get very expensive). [email protected] does not have any port blocking.
Anybody heard any updates as to when Softbank will stop blocking the ssl port for Exchange ActiveSync? Still scheduled for sometime in December? This is killing me . . . so stupid that they would do something like this but so typical.
I will die and rot away before these bastards open up SSL...

I have been looking through the Japanese sites as well but haven't seen anything. I just keep testing every day. Frigging bastards... I told my Exchange and networking team in the US about it and they had never heard of a Windows Mobile device that was blocked from syncing with Exchange SSL over the wireless.
I have a friend in Korea though with a Samsung WM5 device - his works with Exchange but other ports are blocked so he can't use IM apps. So Japan mobile providers are even more backwards than in Korea.
Hi, hope this issue has been solved already but just in case:
Softbank open APN open.softbank.ne.jp *did not* allow SSL port to go through, so you needed to turn off SSL mode of ActiveSync.
It seems, though, since a few days ago, Softbank opend almost all ports for APN open.softbank.ne.jp thus you should be able to use SSL ActiveSync without problems.

Glad to hear it worked. Now my interest is how Softbank is going to treat PC users trying to use X01HT as a wireless modem. I personally hope they provide unlimited usage for $80-$90 per month... (after April)
Hi guys,
I consider myself a pretty good with these devices but this one's got me...even the good ol' search facility aint giving me what I need.
Basically I got an unlocked Orange SPV M3100 with a Voda UK contract SIM.
I setup all the connection details and MMS server as i've found on web but also the HTC utility which sets it all up for you. I get the internet ok but no MMS!
'Error synchorizing' or similar is what I get - it doesnt even try to fire up the data connection - immediate response and i've triple-checked the settings for the MMS server. Anyone point me in a better direction?
Much appreciated.
My bet would be the MMS port is wrong, it should be 9201. Has the same problem after using a vodafone settings cab, everything else worked, just no MMS.
Double check your settings against the 2nd post in the thread below, i have used this setup many times and these settings are all 100% right.

Hi mate,
thanks so much for your reply. Still not working but I suspect it's something to do with the new WM6 (LWVS) rom i've got..it doesn't seem to be happy with it.
I've never had a problem before with any other version...weird.
Try Black, ive had no problems on vodafone and im flashing 3.01 as i type. I also find radio 1.40.30.00 works very well on vodafone, get it from the wiki if you havnt already
Just tried Black 3.01 as well and same problem...i must be doing something stupid..i've found several sets of instructions (all the same) and used the HTC utility which installs the settings for you (you select your country and operator) and I still get the same issue.
The thing I find really weird is that the MMS application doesn't seem to even attempt to initiate a data connection - just errors straight away.
I've not flashed back to LWVS Rom as it's my preferred flavour but i've got to be doing something wrong or missing something.
My radio ROM is 1.41.00.10 - not related to that is it? I'm about to try the version our mate has suggested above but if anyone has any other ideas...please do let me know.
Thanks!
It appears i'm a turnip!
It works - now that i've had a test sent to me! But if i manually press send/recieve it errors so probably was working all along! stupid error messages.
Thanks for your help though James - much appreciated.
im having this same problem on tmobile usa. any pointers guys. ever since the first version on wm6 i haven't been able to send or recieve a mms
hi!
at the moment i have my third herald from o2 germany,also known as xda terra. all three have the same problem:
i use activesync and an exchange server to use push-email via gprs. but my herald decides to not let me communicate with the rest of the world. after the subway and switching the operator (o2/t-mobile d) (too) often it refuses to establish a gprs connection.
it tries, but fails... but best thing to come: it shows me full network coverage, but i can't call anybody, and anybody can call me. after a softrest, everything works again. gprs instantly, and even a normal phone call is possible.... (wohooo ) and that really annoys me, especially having a mobile phone, and nobody can call you even everything seems okay to you.
i already tried it with, and without installing the extended rom. - no change. first i thought it's probably some software i installed, but after the last hard reset i did not install anything. same problem. last idea of the o2 support was a new sim-card. but no change.
in my eyes it's a radio-rom problem, but o2 does not offer any updates, therefore there is no official way to test that. i would love to try out a custom rom and radio update, but because of warranty reasons i won't do that.
my radio-rom version is 02.85.90, does anybody know whether there are such problems with this version? OR, does anybody have any idea how to solve my problem? at the moment im really ******...
thanks in advance!
