Hi folks,
I want to get Adblock running on my Hero.
It seems that for it to work, I need to set the APNs to the right proxies (localhost and port).
Two problems:
-there is no option in my WiFi settings for entering a proxy;
-the options for setting a proxy in my provider APN is "greyed out".
Will rooting let me set these greyed out settings?
If it the proxy is set in the mobile networks APN, will this be enough?
big thanks, sorry if I missed this -- I did a search first.

Anybody know some application that can configure proxy (use ou not) in each connection?
I use proxy for GSM data connection to work remotly (work network), but when connect by WiFi or GPRS I don't use proxy and have to enter configuration connections to disable...
Can I assign proxy settings to each connection?
Thanks
i had the same problem as well, do a search for proxy and you'll find it, also go to start>help and search proxy and it will tell you there.

But, do you know any software that can do it???
I know configure proxy any time but i want an app that can do it for me (in each connection)!
Thanks
Change which network each connection uses (ie work, internet - make more of your own) then each one can have different proxy settings.

Hello,
But at WiFi connection I can't, because there is not any modem config.!
Anyone?
Thanks

Ok, this thread is a little old, but it is close to what I am looking at.
I just got my bill from O2 and I have been charged £1.50 for "GPRS data" although I think it is actually MMS messages being sent or received by GPRS. I am guessing this is because it is set up incorrectly by me.
I did have it set to collect MMS over the "mobile.o2.co.uk" settings (as opposed to the "wap.o2.co.uk" settings) and wifi could be enabled, but if I tried to use the browser without enabling wifi it automatically dialled the GPRS connection.
Could someone give me an idea on how to set it so that
A) MMS messages only count as MMS messages and are sent and received by GPRS.
B) WiFi is the preferred connection for everything else.
C) GPRS is available if WiFi is not available (and preferably after getting confirmation from the user), ie I dont have to find the settings and re-enter them.
I realise this is probably not possible, but any help and/or pointers are appreciated.
The thing is when i connect through gprs i have to go through a proxy, but when i connect through wifi, the proxy settings have to be disabled.
I found this program BatteryStatus that has this option "Disable proxy when wifi/cradled".
But I really don't need any other options from this program, so i was wondering if maybe someone knew or could come up with just a tiny app that would do the same and only that?
Thanks a lot in advance!
In setting->connection->connection,I can only find the place to set up
variety of proxies of different type(sock4,sock5,http,wap ).But how can I
set up a connection that only with a socksv5 proxy?(without http)Or is this
type of connection unrealisable ?
When I click advance setting and set up the socks proxy setting and
leave other proxy settings blank, the input box under "Use proxy to connect
to internet" has been greyed out and made blank,seems the proxy has been disabled ?
Anyone can help me ?
I'm trying to change the t-mobile proxy settings in the connections settings because it keeps crashing the opera browser when i visit https secured websites, messenger and so on.
I unchecked the box next to "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet". But i noticed it doesnt change it and when i go back to the proxy settings, i find its still checked. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a bug or is there some kinda lock preventing it from being changed? and how do i change it?
ideas? tips? pls?
you on t-mobile usa? bc i have those settings
Tmo USA has been switching its EDGE networks over to a new server. You can now point the modem to epc.tmobile.com (not the old wap.voicestream.com) and no longer need to use any proxy.
However WinMo is a bit flaky in how it configures multiple connections, especially with how it resets the proxy settings. From Start > Settings > Connections Tab > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks, you should set both Internet and Private Network to your Tmobile connection. After you do that, you will be able to change the proxy settings.
WinMo will still switch over to WiFi if it's available (or if you manually disconnect EDGE), but this will get you connected to Tmo's new proxy-less epc.tmobile.com server and should enable https as well as other non-port-80 services.
Of course you will need to soft-reset to activate the new settings.
wait so if i used that epc. server as opposed to the wap., would i see any difference in connection speed? just curious
nevermind... i think it works the same. but atleast i don't have to deal with all the proxy crap

i'm on t-mobile uk.. still having no luck. I'm looking to change the proxy settings because it keeps crashing Opera and ie when visiting secure sites.. messenger doesnt connect either.
Oh, well I can't help with specific Tmo UK settings. But setting both connections to your Tmo connection should still allow you to modify the proxy settings.
But as for the US' epc.tmobile.com server, the speed should be marginally faster (not a lot, it's still EDGE of course); still it will depend on your location/coverage. The biggest improvement is that all sorts of non-port-80 services (https, ssh, chat, remote desktop, etc) now work. Bottom line, it's certainly not worse than the old wap server.
Hey,
I just installed WP7, it's all running very smooth but my Wifi doesn't find any networks and I don't know how to set my APN settings.
I read other posts saying go to settins->mobile network and then edit apn. But I only see Add apn which asks for a username and a password?
Help would be appreciated.

Are you T mobile? All I did was put the carriers name. I have T mobile so i put "T-Mobile US" and left the rest blank. Worked for me.
apn
apn: epc.tmobile.com
user name: blank
password: blank
works for me (tmous) been using it for a couple hours. had one random reboot, but all good after that
I had the same problem, I use HI although he suggest i'm on KPN but you have insert in the APN section: portalmmm.nl
Wifi doesn't see any networks at all? Odd.
Wifi's working well enough for me. I did notice some pretty weird stuff, though:
It seems to be impossible to find out your wifi MAC address from within WP7 - I had to browse through my router's logs for it.
Once I found it, though, I soon realized that it was actually useless to know in the first place, since the MAC address seems to change every boot with this ROM (forget about restricting access to your network based on MAC).
While modifying router settings to get the phone to connect, WP7 also froze on me a few times.
WP7 will not connect at all with networks with a hidden SSID.
It would seem there's still some room for improvement on the wifi front.
I've the same problem with Wifi since i flash the OS with a SD cards !If i remove this one, all works fine!
wifi workig great here with conectify as AP. mac is changed on every restart also.
My wifi works and the phone shows a 3g, H etc signal, but I cant sent mms
Prepaid T-Mobile service
I believe the problem with the settings are not for the regular T-Mobile service, but for the Prepaid T-Mobile service (SimpleMobile), there is no place configure the APN with all the necessary settings like: Proxy, Port, MMSC, MMS proxy, MCC, MNC, etc.
If anyone finds a way to setup this values on HD2WP7 please post here.
Thank you in advance
Load the attached connection setup xap and run it, it will automatically apply your carrier settings for 3G and mms. Worked perfect for me (TMoUSA)
How do I load this file? I already tried it from the phone, but it doesn't work.
Does anyone know how I could sync to outlook with my hd2 wp7
When go to settings > celuar, click on automatic, then press manual. When you have done that you see a button sais APN. Click on it and put this in (Vodafone)
APN: live.vodafone.com
user: vodafone
pass: vodafone
All done, now It works (for me anyway). Wifi sucks on some SD cards, don't know wich ones.
Also there is somwhere here a APN list for alot of country's and providers. Search google XDA APN settings or so.
Thing this would work for getting ATT 3G and MMS working?
Yes, as long you as you put youre own providers APN settings It should.
I can't configure the apn settings, and the HTC Connection Setup show me this message: "the carrier doesn't exist in database. Please contact your carrier for connection setting and go to Setting>Cellular>edit APN for further configuration"...
Is there a way add my carrier the the database of the connection setup?
Any luck with the WIFI issue?
I've tried the above mentioned solution by removing the SD C & reboot again but i didn't work for me.
