Hi,
I sometimes have to use a proxy, since the setting itself in WM is buggy I've tried to use a proxy with the Opera settings, wich works fine.
But everytime I close Opera these settings get lost...
In the new beta I don't get any Internetconection, so I was not able to try this.
In Fennec the Proxy setting doesn't seem to work :-(
Is the a plugin or something for Opera to easy switch proxy on and of ore something?
--Astro
strange I have no problem using proxy setting in my HD,
you can try adding the configuration lines in the ini file itself, opera.ini...
I'll try
the no connection problem with the new Opera beta may be caused by the same problem with causes the windows update or some other programs do not connect to the internet until I use a 3G connection instead of WLAN, maybe this is caused by bad branding or something like this....

Enough is enough.
I had the same **** with my old PDA2K and now again with the Exec... I've spent 20 hours thus far on that ****. I just hard reset my machine yesterday and now again this **** happens and I cannot fix it.
I am surfing using UMTS/GPRS.. My definitions are FINE. There's only one connection. It was always fine that way on both the pda2k and the new exec.. but it stopped working now... it could be that some program messed up this ****, but i wouldn't know which.
Trying to browse to a site.. I get PIE saying 'Locating..." then after a minute or so saying "The page cannot be displayed or downloaded blah blah blah"... But the 3GUMTS is connected just fine.. Note that MSN Messenger doesn't work as well (I think that's because it's uses the core engine the PIE uses). Strangely, using networking utilities (vx) I can ping with the machine and even get HTML pages using web addresses. So the problem is not DNS and not a connection problem.. Just probably some damn problem with the operating system not recognizing something.. The 3rd party vxutilities for networking are bypassing that **** hence why they can browse the network just fine.
Tried deleting temp internet files and cookies nada... I also tried soft reset (about 20 times).. nada.... tried deleting the connection and recreating... nada... tried searchiong the registry for my connection name after deleted to see if traces exists.. nada...
Getting tired of this ****.. only hardreset solved it last time and i'm getting sick of becoming the machine's slave rather then the machine being my slave.
Help would be grately apprecaited..... I am sure it's ****ed up registry entry or something like that... I don't have many programs isntalled on my machine as I just hard reseted yesterday and my machine is in rather clean condition except for must have apps.
Help...SOS..
Check your proxy server info (in connections).
My XDA exec just loves to grab my work proxy server and try use that for accessing the web when wifi is active.

Thanks for trying to help...
but that's not the issue.. it's wwaayy deeper than that... ( i would have found it after 20 hours of trying had it been this easy ...
No proxy whatsoever. I never used Wifi. No work setup.. only "My ISP Setup".
anybody else? I'm offering $20 by paypal for the kind soul who can help stop my frustration WITHOUT hardresetting my machine or doing drastic moves. I need a permanent solution. If I solve it before so.. I will post my fix here...
UPDATE:
It's working now, though I don't like the solution, I changed in 'Connections' to connect through 'My Work Network' although I don't actually have any work network and I'm using it the same way I used the "My ISP" connection. It may stop working again though. i'll update.. but I still don't get it why the normal My ISP which always worked stopped working.

Now only that i cannot use PIE, I cannot use Terminal Server as well.. which is a bummer
Toggle flight mode on and then off.
Have ever try to remove check box of proxy in network tab? With mine it works.
proxy issue
I noticed the same thing on my wizard, I think it may be caused by an internet explorer automatic configuration script. When I manually provide the ip address and port number of the proxy server, the problem does not appear. I changed this in Internet Explorer running on my PC and in the Work connection on my phone. I have also changed the setting in Active Sync to choose the Work Network setting by default instead of automatic.
The only way I got Internet Explorer back to work was after a hard reset.
It did not happen again in the past 1,5 week. I have been restoring the same backup after each of these hardresets so I had an identical install everytime. It seems to be fine now.
I don't know how WM5 handles Active Directory policies (if it handles them at all) that may change your IE settings as well.

"Check your proxy server info (in connections).

My wizard does the same, it will work for a week or so and try using some random proxy for no reason!
I just uncheck the proxy tick box and the wifi connection works great with internet explorer. (well usually I tear my hear out for 5 mins and then realise its the proxy!)

PIE stuck at Locating
Hi mobiler,
I hope you have found a more permanent solution to your problem. I own an MDA Pro with TMobile UK and recently bacame plagued with the same symptoms which you reported, i.e., pocket explorer and opera mobile stuck at locating and not able to browse the web. Through some helpful suggestions on this thread I managed to find a solution which you may or may not have already tried. Like most people, I use my MDA pro at home on my home wireless Wifi network, and while away at work I use its GPRS/UMTS capabilities. I had no reason to think that these two features of the MDA Pro had any interactions with each other. In fact, I seem to remember reading somewhere that separate pieces of internal hardware provide these features. However, to my surprise/dismay I discovered that somehow the Wifi and GPRS/UMTS settings on the MDA pro are linked together. For example, if you setup a proxy server in the GPRS modem settings, which I recently did, without notifying you the Wifi connection also tries to use the same proxy setting. Vice versa if you setup a specific IP address and Gateway in your Wifi settings the GPRS modem connection also tries to use those settings and failing. The solution for getting back to normal internet browsing was to remove the proxy in modem connection by using its automatic settings ,and to tick the server assigned IP address for Wifi. This is a less than satisfactory solution, however, at least things are back to where they were before. I remain very puzzled at the interaction between these features and am dismayed and frustrated that there is nothing in the step by step procedures in each setting that warn you about a possible impact on the other.
Hi all,
I got this message on my Wizard when I try to enter any web address or click a favorite : "The address is not valid. Check the address and try again.".
I think it must have happened after I used Mermaid to clean some wrong registry, now IE just doesn't respond well. (however another browser works, like AvantGo or Mini Opera).
I have hard-reseted the device and restore system settings but no luck (since the system restore must have put the error back in place).
any idea ?
thx in advance.
maybe you have to change the settings in the connection tab. I had a similar problem and it was because by default the GPRS connection was used and I only wanted to use WIFI. Make sure that the connection settings are correct for your service provider.
hope this helps
nope, not working with either GPRS or Wifi
even so that opera works fine with both GPRS or Wifi or LAN connected to PC. And I did compare my connections settings to a friend who has the same phone, the same O2 provider and they are both similar.
So my question is more :
- how do I reinstall Internet Explorer only ?
is there a way ?

You can't. It's part of the Mobile O/S.
Do the hard reset again but don't restore the settings. See if it works.
hard reset was the answer
such a shame ... :-(
Did you find some solution? Was it OK after hard reset?
Removed IE--How to redirect programs to Opera?
I have a related problem:
I installed Opera Mini 4.1 and it works great, much quicker and better display than IE. However, it appears that a number of other applications have failed to work and time out without IE. Do I need to reinstall IE? (I was able to set up Opera to open with the IE button.
Does my question make sense? Basically, programs that need a browser don't seem to connect through Opera. How do I direct them to the new browser in the absence of IE? Thanks in advance!

i cant get opera mini on my wizard. help, please. says phone model not detected
Hey guys,
This morning every thing was working fine with my t-zones proxy connection. I could use Opera Mini. I let my son try to set-up an e-mail account, and when I got it back, there was no email and no more opera.
Opera cannot connect to the tzones proxy any longer and I'm wondering if there may have been a setting my son bumped when trying to adjust the email. The odd thing is IE still works fine and can connect.
Opera works fine when WiFi is enabled. I am using the Tmobile Wing (HTC Herald) with Touch-IT touched by vista ROM (which should not matter.)
Thanks for any incite
i read that you have to use esmertec jbed midlet to launch it
Edit: For some reason I was able before to just click the "O" shortcut to launch opera mini. Now I need to select the "e" java manager shortcut to launch it. It is now working correctly.. I just don't understand why this would happen, and why only for tmobile proxy - not for wifi..
Thanks for your response, but the program launches fine and has worked fine up until today.
There must be some TZones setting that was switched, but I don't understand how IE could still work if that was the case.
The problem lies only in Opera reaching the proxy.
IE can reach it fine, and Opera can reach internet through Wifi.
Opera for some odd, odd reason cannot reach the tzones proxy.
Any other suggestions? Thanks
When I try to access a site using Opera Mobile, everthing is fine. When I try using Opera Mini, I get this error message:
"Failed to connect to the Internet.
100
java.io.IOException: null
Click here to start the connection test."

I'm hoping someone can help me. I have an AT&T tilt. I've had it for a year with no problems. Yesterday I tried opening Opera 9.5 and it just hung at connecting to media net. I tried a soft reset, I've tried removing the batteries and reinstalling opera. The problem still persists. I tried leaving it alone to connect to media net, and found google had loaded about an hour later. Unfortunately the browser was still non-responsive. After taking a look at other programs, I discovered, Internet Explorer is the only app that works. Even messaging doesn't, it hangs while trying to connect to download mail. I tried leaving it alone like I did for Opera an found it "logging on" about an hour later, but it was hung. I've also tried turning on WiFi, but Opera still cannot connect.
From what I can see, it looks like there's an issue connecting up to the network, however, I can't explain why IE can do it, but everything else can't. Does anyone have any idea or suggestions for troubleshooting this one?
Thanks in advance.
hi,
try this opera fix.
http://www.ppcsg.com/index.php?showtopic=101958&st=430&p=749204&#entry749204
as for messager live .. good luck with that .. as far as I can see, the only solution is to do a hard reset and AVOID using the auto configurator in the email setup.
quote
" bad news for Windows live/ hotmail users is that they do not get the chance to select the network connection a windows live/hotmail account uses. On the very first part of the e-mail setup, as soon as you type in "[email protected], or [email protected]" , the account wizard completely takes over declaring that "settings found for hotmail.com". And even after you type in all your details you do not get to option to select the network connection to be used. (This is consequence of the fact that Microsoft Windows Mobile thinks it knows best how to configure microsoft based e-mail accounts for windows mobile.) The network connection that is automatically selected is called "The Internet". As you cannot select another network connection, you must edit "The Internet" connection so that it has the right settings for your particular mobile service provider. To do this"

But the strange thing is that I cannot find The Internet connection settings. So i cannot edit The Internet networking settings. Apparently, the end user is deem too stupid to know how to edit it correctly, so it's set automatically and hidden from view. Still investigating.
Please help as this is driving me insane!
I have a telstra hd2 with the 3 official patches.
Opera mobile is repeatedly having an issue where trying to access the internet with it results in "Connection closed by remote server" error most times. All addresses except the wap.telstra.com addresses work fine in internet explorer.
Example: www.google.com.au
Opera reports Error! Connection closed by remote server
IE displays the google search page.
Please help to resolve this issue.
which version of opera?
do telstra use a proxy?
does it happen on both data and wifi?
opera 9.7 build 35577
Unsure about proxy server, dont see a proxy setting in the opera settings page.
the hd2 is my only acess point to the internet
I just found out this: launch Opera.
Open the Preferences Editor by typing opera:config in the address bar of Opera (remove any 'http' or 'www' first so that it ONLY reads opera:config) and hit go.
Scroll down to "Proxy" settings. enter your proxy server address. I put it in ftp,http and https. Click the check boxes below that to enable these. Click on "Save". should work then.
That's all I know so far... hope it works for you.
Colin Chee.
