Firmware upgrade - then no email

Hi all, I have searched but can't find an answer..
I keep getting - "can not connect with current connection settings" when trying to do a send and receive through email. I have yahoo and googlemail accounts.
I upgraded to Polaris 0.67_Opera_bepe and had the issue initially. I thought I may as well try Polaris.ASerg.3.WM61.WWE to see if that would remedy it.. but still i have the same issue.
My connection settings should be correct as I have used UK_Setup_ZD and that has always worked.
Worth me saying I have tried soft reset twice, opera / IE both connect and my MMS is fine too.
Could someone please help? It'll have to basics as I'm still new to this.
FYI : Polaris.ASerg.3.WM61.WWE is very very fast!! :O)
thanks for reading.
UPDATE: Not sure if this helps..
I have just turned on wi-fi and connected - This allowed me to update my inbox.
Turned Wi Fi off.
Tried again:
Data connection IS TURNED ON. Still have the same error message. "can not connect with current connection settings" and "Error Syncronizing"
@#!HELP!`~

Now this is weird! I got very frustrated as this did not make sense so loaded the HTC std Polaris rom.
Set the t-mobile settings as normal and proceeded to try and connect to email again... Nothing! same error again.
Went to watch TV for a couple of hours and came back to phone.
Closed all apps
Tried again and hey presto ! connection and downloaded email!
strange but true!
I missed something as this was not magic. I guess it was a strange request as nobody seemed to answer my request. If your having the same issue and reading this post good luck!

solved
Settings/ connections [tab]/ connections/ manage existing connections/
select connection
edit
then just keep pressing next and then finish.
Although the connection settings were there they were obviously not initiating when needed. This process seemed to confirm the settings and worked.
I may be talking absolute pony but it may help someone else like me.
Thanks all.

Which App is trying to connect to inet?

Hello,
I do have here a problem on WM6. Every time to time my device connects to the internet (GPRS) and stays connected.
I have installed the nodata application, ans disabled the GPRS connection. It works ok, but the device becomes very slow to respond the commands after a while. Some application is trying to connect to the net. Connmgr.exe process is getting almost 100% cpu usage.
I have disabled every automatic update, activesync and son on but the problem remains.
How can I find which app is trying to connect?
Regards
Cabiri

my 2 cents
connect via your activesync/device manager, and get online via your desktop internet connection. now with netstat -b or any packet capture tool, try to find out where it is connecting. you will get an idea about the prog from remote address. like if it connects to msn.com, it'll be live messenger.. something like this.
you can also use a advanced task manager on the phone to check which applications are running in the background.
hope that helps

Thans, I will try both soluctions.

same problem here. this is happening to me just last few weeks. i can't remember if i was messing with some options in any program, but even if i did i was just turning off automatic connections since i don't like them. i also tried to uninstall my latest software, but that didn't help.it is possible that it is some kind of malware, but kaspersky antivirus did not find any problems. i hope that someone will find solution for this becouse it is very annoying.
p.s.
if this causes significant data transfer you can go to Settings/Connections/Connections -> Advanced tab -> Select Networks, and change settings to "My Work Network"

if you have a weather update, this maybe the one triggering your mobile to connect to the Internet. just turn the Automatic Update off

no, it's not any weather plugin since i removed them long time ago. and when i used them automatic update was turned off. however, if weather plugin try to auto update and if it fails, then you get an error message. this one looks just like it continuosly try to connect and it uses almost all CPU until it gets connected. whatever this application is it looks hostile and i don't like it. the war is on!
thanks for help anyway

Hi,
I even disabled the HTC today plugin... and it remains doing the same.
Until now I had no chance to track the traffic, I will try on the next days.

finally i found the solution for my problem. seems like windows live messenger is causing all my problems. i found that phone is trying to connect to internet only after using wlm. usually after i'm finished using wlm i just terminate the program. and this is the problem. i should first sign out, and then terminate wlm. after this everything works just fine. so be sure to sign out before terminating wlm. i'm sure that this is the problem because i've tested my theory few times and i guess that this is it.
i hope this helps to you. if it does please report here

Yeah I have the same issue, i believe it's been on several version of Windows live messenger, actually, it's even on the version I have of WM6.1 (I have an Elfin with the blue elves rom from xda which has wm6.1)
it's quite sad that msft hasn't fixed this yet, it henders the phone completely useless and seems like it should be something easy to fix, stupid WLM should just not retry so brutely
anyways, actually if you change WLM to "manual" instead of "as items arrive" that does the trick too, but then now your push mail is gone ;( lame!

Unable to connect to data via Opera

Okay, so i've searched before i posted this and all i found was this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=494541&highlight=connect+data
Which isn't exactly the problem that im having...
So, when i got My X1 out of the box, it connects to the net flawlessly. What i mean is, i just open opera, hit my favorites, and then the balloon pops up and connect itself to the net.
The problem is now, everytime i do this, 8 times out of 10 it will give me the "unable to connect" message thing. Strangely, if i go to comm manager before and enable the data connection manually, it will connect with no problem. Opera runs fine after that.
The problem doesn't always happen all the time, which actually makes me curious...
is it:
1. The network am i in is a bit busy?
2. There is a glitch in WM?
3. Something need to be fix in the registry?
I dont think i've ever messed up with the connection setting, so i doubt anything changed there....
any help would be appreciated...

[HELP] Confirmation before data connection / automatic disconnection on inactivity

Hello
I have been searching for answers for these 2 issues but just came dry from my search.
I come from a Nokia N73 phone and these Simbian S60 devices can be configured to ask if you like to start a data connection when a program requires it. The phone also automatically closes the connection after a period of inactivity that you can configure (after closing the application using the data connection for example).
I have not found a place where I can configure Windows Mobile 6.1 on the Touch HD for doing any of this. I am specially worried that the connection is not been closed automatically after inactivity. For example when I update the weather application the phone just stays connected and I have to manually tap the H icon on the taskbar and close the connection manually, this is really tiresome.
Any help to find solutions for this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

use either Schapps Advanced Config or HD tweak 0.5.4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452505 as you can change the options in these. It does not come as a standard option

My HD2 is harassing me with UMTS

Hello,
I just bought a Leo. My provider is Vodafone IT.
From the very first moment, while WiFi is present in my house, the phone tried to connect to Internet via UMTS. It does so often when Wifi is temporarily unavailable.
After my old Glofiish M800, one year ago, made me spend 3€ for two consecutive connections for the duration of a half second each (1.50€ on connection then) I requested Vodafone to completely disable Internet access for my SIM card. All I did then was to connect the PDA to USB cable and SPB Weather immediately tried to update weather without even waiting for Net via ActiveSync to become available in a few seconds.
With Leo, I also deleted all network access points from configuration, set all profiles to Office Network and unchecked (my ROM is Italian) "This connection has Internet access" "Questa connessione dispone di accesso a Internet".
What occurs now is that often, but really OFTEN, even during the night, especially when I'm on the road and I'm not interested in Facebook, YouTube or weather, the phone turns on and two popup appear:
One as a notification "Called: " (before deleting AP "Called: web.omnitel.it" "Chiamata effettuata: web.omnitel.it"). The other as error message about problems with GPRS.
I also have to pay great attention to the second popup. Once, but fortunately not today, it went over the lock screen and I was unable to unlock it as the slider was below the popup. I was also unable to close the popup as the screen was locked so I had to soft-reset.
I only installed TomTom and Core Player for now.
I DON'T WANT TO PAY VODAFONE LOTS OF MONEY FOR UMTS ACCESS WITHOUT MY CONSENT, NOR SIGN UP FOR FLAT PLANS AS I HAVE WIRELESS ACCESS IN EVERY PLACE I USUALLY GO!!!
Can somebody help me tell Leo to NEVER TRY to use UMTS? I had to agree with Vodafone that I would have been unable to even send MMSs and perform videocalls until I restore UMTS, but I can't spend this huge money for the sake of weather and for greedy (it's the right word) software that just want to connect to the Internet whenever THEY want (ie. Windows Vista/7 does Windows Update only when Internet is detected, it never tries to connect until you do manually).
Thank you. Please anser me ASAP. If I don't find a solution, I will return the PDA to the seller (it's a great PDA, I wouldn't like to)

settings menu all settings connections connections advanced tab select networks change the top drop down to "my work network"
hope it helps!

Hi, I followed what you suggested and, in order to test faster, I tried to manually update weather from HTC Sense.
First of all, even if I uncheck the Internet access checbox from Office Network ("My work network" you mentioned), I always see it comes back again. I found that "ISP settings" only shows two tabs, and no Internet/proxy checkbox, so I also tested selecting this connection.
I also entered "*" as list of intranet addresses.
Every time I try to update weather, for all of these tests, I see the 3G arrows on top of notification bar flashing for a couple of seconds and the same exact alerts
Does your phone always connect to 3G?
[EDIT] I also tested http://www.htc.com/au/faqs.aspx?p_id=297&cat=264&id=118112, no result. But actually the help page says it clearly: it's normal that the phone will notice errors.
Is there any registry tweak or what?

Hello,
To solve your problem, go to the redfrogfish website, google to find the link. Download and install the Data Controller cab.This enables you to turn on/off the data connection function of the HD2
(I wanted to give you the link, but I am a new user and not allowed to do so)
Good Luck

I think you are going further into the settings than i need to.
settings - menu - all settings - connections - connections - switch to advanced tab - click 'select networks'
See my image 1 - setting the top dropdown to 'my work network' (or 'the internet', it gets called slightly diff thing depending on your setup, ,)) means it will look for whatever active connection is available and use that.
I also have a commmanager that has seperate on/off toggles for 3g and data.(see pic 2) So, if i turn off data connection, but leave 3g on, even though i have 3g (well, H) showing available on the top bar, if i go to update the weather it comes up with 'connection error'. If i start opera, it fails, etc etc.
Back into comm manager., turn back on the data toggle, everything works again.
If i turn off 3g, and leave data off, I get the same results.
