Im still not over the 192mb ram thing but im trying to move on. Today for the first time i used the youtube app and wanted to share a video, cant log in. "connection times out..." i hit 'retry' several times, tried clearing data in applications, tried restarting phone. nothing. i can log in on my desktop. Whats the deal? Why is this phone so embarrasing to be seen with in public? thanks for any help
maybe it's not the phone, but the user?

what ROM are you using?
not rooted.
And i dont think its 'the user' because i know how to sign in, i was able to do it on my laptop and desktop. Plus the error reads 'server error...'

Yeah, I get this every so often when moving between mobile cells. Sometimes cycling between 2G/3G in wireless settings reinitialises the session and gets me back on, otherwise it's a phone restart.

I had a Rhodium for about a week and now I'm using a sapphire and I hate to satire but I'd rather throw my old rhodium than the sapphire. Try a battery pull.

TMobile's sending another one under warranty anyway (for several other issues with this stupid phone), maybe that one will work.
I jumped on android's bandwagon by paying my way out of sprint and into TMobile when the g1 arrived and now Sprint and verizon are shelling out fantastic android devices and tmobile, who couldve and shouldve ran off with the android market long ago is sticking me with the already outdated MyTouch and Cliq and their big new announcement was the not-even-a-good-deal 'one price for unlimited usage' package. They better get their act together, very poor decisions on their part thus far. I feel like everyone's wearing reebok pumps and i have the generic payless shoe source version. I dont even like taking my lame-ass 192mb ram android device out in public, its embarrassing.
Is the mobile network access point set up correctly?
Can you browse the internet?
If yes, then the AP is set up correctly and the problem lies elsewhere.
I ask because, after I flashed a new ROM my AP wasn't set up, so i had to do it manually.
And no the mobile network AP is not the same as a Wireless AP.

Is anyone else having any trouble with TMobile's GPRS? I haven't been able to get a GPRS connection since December 1st. I have had a open ticket with TMobile since the 4th. My connection tries and tries and tries but eventually comes back and says that the answering modem has disconnected. Not getting any help from Customer Service or the Wireless Data Group. 3rd Level Wireless Data Group has supposedly escalated this ticket to their Network Engineers but that was on Friday and I haven't heard from anyone since then. I've been through the standard check your connection settings and such several times and even did a hard reset on Saturday thinking that maybe something in my OS was screwy. Any suggestions or ideas?
I have the same problem. I can get connected to WAP.VOICESTREAM.COM, but that does me no good, can't visit webpages or utilize IM/POP services.
wap.voicestream.com working perfectly here..
unlimited, free gprs is the way to go.
make sure wap browsing is activated on your account.

I'm getting this too, I'm a T-Mobile UK customer... I was on the train yesterday, and using MSN Messenger at the time, and got disconnected from GPRS... Now I get the same "the answering modem has disconnected" message... I use AP general.t-mobile.uk... Anyone got any ideas?

My radio must have been messed up as I ordered another phone and it fixed my problem.
sometimes, when this happens, you can fix it by powering down the radio (which does more that just a reset or a radio off/on). To do this, simply open the SIM door and close it again. Note: this also soft resets the PDA part but there's no data-loss since its 'soft' on the pda-side.

I think it may be something to do with the ROM/Radio stack version... just need to find a "good" version that works well on T-Mobile UK :twisted:
Yeah it was my radio that was the problem. I tried the sim open door thing to no avail. I finally got tmobile to send me a replacement and that fixed the problem.

Actually, I doubt it was your radio... I was having similar problems in the similar timeframe with BOTH my XDA and my Sony, which I use as a wireless modem. Started asking around to other non-XDA T-Mo users if they were having data problems, and we all seemed to be having the same problem... Very spotty network performance on both wap.*** and internet2.***. Either no connection, or 2kbps throughput max. I also traveled to other cities (incl. Chicago) during this time and head the same trouble everywhere. At 2kbps, most web sites and mail servers timeout before a complete send, so both my devices were virtually useless.
I too contacted T-mo, ended up with a tier-3 trouble ticket with an estimated call back of TWO WEEKS. Still haven't heard back, but it's back to normal (+/- 40kbps) on both devices. The tier-2 guys denied there was any NW problems, but the truth was obvious to me and others.
Still some trouble spots throughout the day, but they never seem to last more than a few minutes. The date range I had the problems corresponded almost perfectly with your dates, hence my doubt that it was the radio.
I too was having problems with GPRS and wap with T-Mobile the last few days.
Well the only solution I was able to achieve was somewhat drastic but not too bad.
I got SMS, GPRS, WAP, and CSD dial up working again by using Pocket Backup.
1st - I made a full back up of everything
2nd - I did a full hard reset
3rd - with a "virgin" machine - I was finally able to to SMS & connect GPRS & CSD
4th - I then partially restored my box - by omitting MMS, Inbox, Connections, temp files, and other non-essential network items
5th - I then reloaded my email settings
As of last night and all day today - this has been fully successful.
I attribute the loss of SMS, GPRS, WAP, and CSD to some software I loaded that may have hosed it all up. The restore process fixed it so I am now happy again!
FYI
JB
I have the Same Problem, but I Fixed with a SoftReset.
¡¡Salud!!-2
Try using....
Try using the Radio upgrade from 4.01.00. It works a lot better for me. I was needing t-mobile's advanced wireless data group to reset my internet connection every time i tried to log on a second time. I'm using PPC 2002 and that radio upgrade, and i couldn't be happier with my phone!
ok, so today i was showing off my phone..but then accidently dropped it...
the battery and the cover all flew off the phone...but this wasnt the first time this happen.
being embarrassed, i picked up my x1 and put it back together.
tho my x1 suffer from a minor scratch, everything(software and hardware) was working fine
the only problem now is that my data (edge) service doesnt work. i tried soft resetting and hard resetting. but tho i am connected to my service provider, t-mobile(USA), i have no data service. is there anything wrong with my x1? could sumthing inside broke?
Note: prior to dropping my phone my internet was working fine, so nothing was wrong with my data plan.
Thanks for your time,
Same thing happened to me today on T-mobile USA. Were you connecting over wap.voicestream.com? I'm not sure, but T-mo might have changed something with that server today. Therefore, it might be a coincidence that this happened after you dropped your phone. See if you can fix the problem by going to settings>connections>connections>advanced>select networks>my ISP then click edit, then click edit again, then hit next, then change wap.voicestream.com to internet2.voicestream.com. That solved the problem for me.

Mine was also saying "connected" yet returning errors. Are you connecting over "T-mobile data" or "T-mobile Wmodem link?"

Hello, i finally got my Hero. loaded a new ROM onto it and rooted it, but i´m having some trouble with the market app. whenever i try to open it it just says loading "android market terms of service" and stays there forever, the only choice is to wait longer og choose decline.
I´ve triyed both on wifi and gprs connection, and every other application on the phone can use both connections to browse and so on.just not android market..
Here is a little infor about the phone to help you figur my problem out.
ROM: update-hero-modacocustomrom-1.1-signed
Firmware version: 1.5
Baseband Version: 63.18.55.06U_6.35.04.25
Kernel version: 2.6.27-a550404199 [email protected] #521
Build number: 1.79.482.3 14733 CL#49365 release keys
Software version 1.0.0.A6288
Hope some kind soul is willing to help me out, thank you in advance.
I just put 1.1 on my Hero a few hours ago, and Market is still working fine for me. i did update the radio first though; you might want to try that.
otherwise, it could just be Market playing up, not at all unusual in my experience...
Updated the radio to this version, "update-hero-radio-63.18.55.06_6.35.05.15-signed" still no luck getting allowed to accept the terms of service, but i seems that the phone now has better signal strenght to the phone net.
After apoximitly 5 minutes i get a window instead of the loading screen where is says "Attention. An error has occured. Please try again later."
this sounds similar to teh connection errors that people are experiencing when they skip the sign in process during the initial set up. In general,m the only solution to that is to hard reset and sign in to google at the very first opportunity, during the set up screens and before you ever see the touchflo homescreen.
of course, it could just be a proxy in the APN settings.....
Year, i had that problem on the first time i changed the ROM, on that occasion i skipped the google account setup, and couldn´t use any program the used the internet.
But on this install i did do the sign in on first boot, and every program other that market that uses the internet or GPRS is working (weather, browser, mail, stock´s and so on)
Only thing that won´t start is the market tearms of service.
I had the exact same problem.
You need to contact your service provider and get the APN settings for your provider. After you have entered them in connect to marketplace over 3G and you should be fine.
My problem was caused by my phone company, Chess.no, shipping the unit with APN settings for Netcom! Obviously with a Chess sim inside the phone had some connectivity problems. Once the Chess APN settings were in I got connected straight away.
are you using wifi or 3g? I heard that market likes to make it's initial connection over 3G....
sadly i have a locked t-mobile G2 so i don't have any of these problems, i just sign in and it is automatically set up for me over 3G.
Arctic Matt was spot on, there was no APN profile in the phone, just made one with a name. after that it worked instantly.
Thanks alot.
Thanks for listening
I cannot believe that Scandinavian mobile providers, with their lazy ass coffee drinking cake eating lifestyle, have failed to notice this problem. If you look around on other forums (Google, Chess, Netcom) there are tons of people with this shortfall. I am so sick of this constant crap in Norway that I am moving my entire family over to Canada! In Norway, the technology is there and people want it but the companies providing it are infested by tech thick 50 year old management morons who are incapable of overseeing projects.
Just imagine if you were not a member of xda devs and have just got this phone as an average Joe. No apps! No help! ...and they wonder why people hack the phones to hell.
Glad I could help.
Sorry to dig up an old thread but I've got the exact same problem and have tried everything listed here. I had this issue on my LG Optimus One running Froyo, I flashed with a new ROM and still have the same problem.
I tried:
1. Master Reset through the phone (3 times!)
2. Entering APN and connecting via the mobile network before using WiFi (also tried WiFi first before using mobile network, no difference).
3. Signing in through the YouTube App and ensuring sync was on, yes that works, and I can see my Gmail, but still can't sign into the Market.
After (3), each time I try to open the Market I get " An error has occurred. Please try again later." and the Market just exits.
Anyone have any other solutions which might work??

Sometimes your provider will block your connection to market, until you verify that you are over 18 (as a child proofing method) etc.. (even on wifi, somehow)
at least that was a problem with someone I knew.. .. I assume master reset would clear market data and cache?

I don't think that's my issue, I've used my SIM as well as many other SIMs in other Android phones to access the market, it just seems to be an issue with this particular handset, oh well its weird!

Hi,
There's one thing that bothers me in every ROM out there and even on my own. I don't have an unlimited data plan and I hate the fact that I have pull my SIM card every time I want to try a new ROM. The problem is that if I don't, I'll be charged for access cause every ROM has the mobile connection enabled by default.
I can't find any setting anywhere in the ROM files to change this behavior... Maybe I overlooked? Does anyone if it can be done and how?

AFAIK you can just press menu when you're in setup and then choose to edit APN. Go to your APN and just put a random letter somewhere in the address to prevent it from working.
At least it's possible doing that using a vanilla ROM, not sure about sense
IIRC, during setup it asks if you want to connect through mobile network & wifi or wifi only. Just select Wifi only.

Exactly, "during setup" and not at startup. It always connects through before I can select "wifi only".

Indeed. The setting is initially set to Mobile Network & Wi-Fi, until you change it in the setup wizard or settings. It's really annoying for people with no data-plan.
You could remove the APN list from your ROM to prevent it. Also, there are a few XML files with default settings. If you are lucky, it contains the Data Connection settings, and you can change it.

Maybe for you and your country network operators. It's not about the data downloaded or the time it takes for me to disconnect it. As soon as it makes a connection, I'm charged a fee.
just hold the END button and chosse turn mobile network off?
Yeah, this is a problem for me. ROMs never used to do this so it wasn't a problem, but recent ROMs have started connecting as soon as I first turn them on, which costs me 99¢ each time.
(The pricing is: 99¢ per day for 50MB, and anything extra is charged per KB)
I've lost a couple of euro to this. It's not a big deal, but it's a pain alright.

I use a T-Mobile prepaid SIM for my HD2 as a backup phone with JDMS v1.4 Android 2.2.1. Since Oct. 21 T-Mobile US has made Web/Internet Day Pass available for $1.49 per day ("unlimited" GB). Last few days I have been trying to subscribe to it, but kept getting "web page not available" while it should have taken me to a page for me to buy the day pass. I found some discussions on some other forums but found conflicting answers. I am quite sure I set the APN correctly for T-Mobile US. Any suggestions, help? Thanks.

Can you give me the page link/url to it? Thanks.
It happens to me as well at times. What I do is just load up WM and open the browser to activate the webpass, then boot android afterward and it works. I have no idea why it doesn't load up on the android browser at times.
I'd like to try this as well. When I checked about signing up for the Day Pass, T-mobiles says you have to sign up through T-zones. On my old phone you can access T-zones through the menus but I don't see how to do it through the Android browser. The way I figure it I'd have to put the sim back in an old phone and order the service then put the sim back in the HD2 to access it.
So I don't know what really happened, but I now have 3g data. Not sure if something broke along the way, we'll see. Here's what I did
Reboot back to windows mobile
Turned off wifi (you have to do this or the website gives you an error)
Turned on data and 3g
Opened Opera and entered this website http://m.web2go.com/myaccount/summary.do
Went through the menus and ordered the daypass
There were 2 confirmation screens, after the last one I got an error, but I now have full data anyway. My account hasn't been deducted, we'll see what happens. Speed is excellent, 3168/1226. Better than my adsl
update: account properly deducted so everything is go. No notice or anything but at least it works.
Crap
Tmobile webpass has not worked for 3-4 days now. Nobody knows what's going on.
I dont believe it has to do with Android. Booting into WM and trying to get the webpass gets the same error as in Android.
