data connection/apn/3g/edge - Touch HD General

Hi
I cant seem to manage to go on the internet with my blackstone. Ive tried to set up proxy servers and all that sutff from my provider, but nothing helps. Its kinda frustrating that its so difficult to solve. Can anyone please help me with this? With like a step by step solution, to what to put in where?
I use norwegian netcom, probably not what you guys know about though.

apn is in most cases the only thing one need to set
proxy's is an optional service to get a faster dl of caches

Thank you. But this doesnt work for me, as i dont have the same menu in the step by step there, and i cant do all that says there as it not the same as on my blackstone. Btw, the edge, and 3g icon is on title bar on the phone, and under advanced config and connections, it says my internet is enabled. But when i go into it, it says that its disabled. Its so frustrating.

Complete newb to my Qtek... (Cingular US Settings)

Hi there, I'm about to update my Qtek 9100 to the latest WWE ROM posted last week. Is there anything very important I should know before I do this? I already backed up all my information and files, and I'm currently running on the Cingular US network. I tried searching for the official Cingular 8125 ROM but wasn't able to find it. I really, REALLY want to have the exact same settings as the 8125 does for connecting to the internet so I get full speed EDGE and the best phone signal it can offer. Could anybody please tell me how to set up my Qtek so it's exactly the same, including the E icon when I'm in an EDGE-covered area? I did a search for everything, but all I managed to find were a bunch of posts where everybody knew what everybody else was talking about. I managed to find the cab file named "Signed_Edge_Icon.sa" but I honestly have no idea what to do with it. As I said, I'm completely new to this, and I just want my Qtek 9100 to perform the best it possible can on Cingular's network. Thank you so much!
Cingular Settings
Hi,
Cingular has a blow by blow description of the settings.
https://onlinecare.cingular.com/dev...ingular.atgnow.com/cng/tutorials/KB56475.html
are the internet settings
.... and .....
https://onlinecare.cingular.com/dev...ingular.atgnow.com/cng/tutorials/KB56044.html
are the MMS settings
And for the cab file, just use activesync (press the explore icon) to drag the cab file to you phone and then tap it to run it.
Cool, I got that cab installed, but I'm having trouble with those Cingular settings... I don't have a "Set up Proxy Server" option under the first My ISP list. I do have it under My Work Network, but to my understanding that is a completely different connection option. Is it okay to have the wap.cingular connection under My ISP and the proxy server information under My Work Network, or should I just put everything under My Work Network and leave My ISP alone?
Through my experience the proxy settings for Cingular do two things (one good one bad) and your decision to use them should be based on which is more necessary to you.
1. The proxy settings allow you to use the MEdia Net homepage at device.home
2. The proxy settings screw with your WIFI connection and cause timeout errors and such when attempting to browse at home.
I personally find that the MEdia Net homepage is nice, but I can live without it or even replace it with other things like google.com/ig.
If you want to enable the proxy settings on the My ISP panel go to the advanced tab and create a new profile where My ISP is. For some reason the new one will allow you to put in proxy settings, but the default My ISP won't.

WiFi uses GPRS Proxy - Fix without removing Proxy?

I've got GPRS and WiFi working perfectly.
However, everytime I switch between WiFi and GPRS, I got to reentern/remove the proxy server.
My GPRS REQUIRES the use of the proxy, so there's no going around that, and there are no unlimited data plans on the non-proxy access point [face_cry]
I've looked through both HowardForums (where I am from, I've been a Symbian user until now) and here for already existing info.
Aside from finding tons of people who couldnt get the wifi to work because of the proxy, none of those threads gave a solution that included KEEPING the proxy server for GPRS.
If there is a thread with the information to get WiFi to NOT use the GPRS proxy, just link me to the thread and Ill figure out the rest on my own
Thnx! Hope I'll get my post count increased fast so I'm not considered as a post-and-leave user.
of course u can keep the the proxy server for GPRS and surf the internet via wifi ~~
but pity that my device's interface is in chs & my broken english
(if i misunderstand ur thread,dont brick me )
u can fix it ,follow below
start menu--setting---connection--connetion,or u can see my device' captures pic1
(i dont really sure if ur device is that path,i just translated it from chinese to english)
select the icon in green (pic1)
a new window like pic2,just do it
and the key step in pic3:
the two places in red circle
dont select ur wap setting ,select my isp or my network is ok
when u want to connect internet via gprs,u rechange to ur gprs setting
enjoys
oh I understand what you mean. Yes that way I dont have to retype my proxy addresses.
Sadly, it's still not automated from what I see
I'll have to make a shortcut for that section.
Thanks woohyuksheng!
Cingular proxy cabs
Cingular has a set of cab files that enable/disable the proxy settings. if you search this forun you will find then. they are also in the latest cingular rom, black 3.0, and custel 1.3.
if you are not on cingular you could try and edit the cab files with your carrier info.
give it a try.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It didnt work for me. I'll explain below, but first I want to say I found my own fix. (however, it sucks to switch my fix back and forth)
Woohyuksheng's trick didn't do anything either.
My fix for WiFi usage
Thanks JCB Dalek!
All I needed was to add DNS addresses for my Wifi adapter and to EnableAutoDetect=1
Ignore this , I changed everything I said

AT&T mMode settings cab?

I looked on this page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_provider_cabs but it does not have the provider info for AT&T (mMode)
I am not sure how to create one but I think it would be something nice to have so if someone knows how this is just a request if it's not too much trouble to make.
Thanks
Here ya go.... Works for ATT as everyone says on this board... SEARCH THE FORUMS
I don't have MediaNET, I have Pre-at&t, Pre-Cingular, AT&T Wireless mMode.
Are you telling me I can use the MediaNET settings?
AFAIK I have to use "proxy" for my AP name and use some other IP's as well to be able to use mMode.
IE this config - http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=cingular&thread.id=38077
I just don't know how to make a .cab to auto set this up every time I hard reset or change my rom.
I would like to bump this up, can anybody out there create a at&t blue mmode settings cab?
You really don't need a cab. Just add a new new modem connection to "my ISP" in the settings-connections tab. Name it whatever (does not matter), choose "cellular line, gprs" from the pull down, then click next. Access point name is "proxy" and click next/finish. Nothing else needs to be done. Don't need "WAP settings", http addresses or anything else. I flash my trinity constantly and this is all I ever do.
so you don't need to put in the 10.250.250.54 connection strings for mmode and mmode mms? it gets annoying re-entering all that data just to have it gone again everytime some new hot rom comes out that i got to have.
i'd write a cab myself if i knew how.
yup like the post above yours says, all you need is to make a new connection that connects to "proxy" and your done for the mMode connection.
For the MMS the only two things you need to know are;
10.250.250.55:8080
http://mmsc.mymmode.com
Then you select the connection you made under connections and your done.
EDIT:
btw, are you in a 3G network area and is your service working?
No problems with 3G, including "H" and I am still using my original blue ATT sim from yrs ago.
Do you mind if I ask where your located?
I am really getting sick of being jerked arround!

http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=mmode&thread.id=13039
I can't get any help or response either!
DH, I'm in DC & live in MD, no problems in either of those areas.
With regard to settings, have you tried another browser? Running WM6 and using IE with the above settings never works but switching to opera solves the connection issues more often than not.
BTW I’m in the DC (Mont. Fred. And Washington county) area as well if it matters.
Hi...I got my mmode data settings to work according to your suggestion...but can't get the mms to download. I've got the old blue sim card...any suggestions for getting the MMS to work along with the data? It connects...retrieves message headers, i know who the messages are from...can even get subjects...but all the messages just hang at 0%??

Help please!

Im new to the Hermes scene. last night i decided to be a little adventurous and flashed shamanix grass 2.2 to my phone. I am enjoying the speed and memory with this new ROM but i am having one issue: when i try to connect to the internet via ATT 3G internet i keep getting the notification "Cannot Connect: The answering Modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings". I have no idea how to configure these settings to work with ATT's internet, so some help would be greatly appreciated.
welcome to xda-developers... There are several options available to you... you can go to AT&T's website and get the settings from there and add them to your device, or you can use the google link in my signature and search for wpbear's cingular settings cab file... it is a one step setup file that adds the medianet settings for you... It is posted all over this forum and I believe there is mention of it in the wiki...
Good Luck...
I installed the cab and i am now able to access the internet. but when i do connect there is an "H" in the top corner instead of 3G? i dont know if this is a big deal or not?
Looks like your connecting using HSDPA

Internet Connection issue on 8525 AT&T.

Hi all,
I don't know weho else to turn to, I have extinguished all of my resources, with no luck you guys are my last hope with this issue.
when I try to use external programs like Skype or windows update on the device, it tells me to check my internet setting. BUT the internet explorer works great and I am able to use high speed internet.
As soon as I try to access internet form a 3rd pary software it won't let me.
If any one knows what this thing is all about, please help me resolve this issue.
Many thanx in an advance,
Genek.
perhaps try disabling the at&t proxy, that seems to work for me in some programs....
Start>Settings>Connections Tab>Connections>Advanced Tab
then click Select Networks, if MEdia Net is selected in the top dropdown list, click edit, and go to proxy settings tab and uncheck "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
Warning...if u disable the proxy you wont be able to receive mms messages until you re-enable the proxy...if you need to re-enable it, its "wireless.cingular.com"
Thank you so much. The problem was that I had the proxy server entered wrong. I had as "wireless.cingular" for some reason, all I did was ad ".com" and everything worked with proxy enabled.
Thank you,
Genek
