Has anyone come up with a fix so that the GPRS is back to being always on as it was in the original 1.03 ROM? I have read some posts on this on other sites, but I have not found anything here. I assume that I have everything set properly, but the GPRS has to be started every time now.
In general I do not feel that the 1.06 ROM upgrade did much of anything to enhance my device, and quite frankly I wish I was back to 1.03, however, I have heard that a new ROM upgrade will soon be released and I bet that one or I hope that one will provide some real value and fix things.
I've posted this in another thread, here's the quote:
Here's a solution I've done to my XDA II with T-Mobile GPRS problem. I don't know who came up with this solution, but thanks to my friend who suggested this at PDAMobiz.com.
1. After a hardreset and completing the initial screen alignment, interrupt the auto-installation process by softreset your XDA II (you have 3 seconds before the files in Extended_ROM will automatically install).
2. Make your Extended_ROM viewable, whether by using the Extended ROM Viewer from http://www.ppcw.net or Extended ROM Switcher (sorry I forgot the link).
3. Now, install each cab files, except TMD_AP_NL.sa.CAB. In fact, I also disregarded, Caller ID, and some other TMD stuff.
As a result, the GPRS is now always-on as it should be.
Cheers,
Thank you for responding to this post. I had to wait quite awhile.
Your #3. states to install the cab files and disregard the TMD files. Did you delete these files or just not open them? What are these TMD Files for?
I assume that I cannot, at this point and without a hard reset, just delete the TMD Files that are viewable in my Extended Rom. Is this a correct assumption or could I accomplish the same goal by just deleting those files?
Thank You

Yes you need to delete does file from Extended_ROM and hard reset it.
Or hard reset, quickly soft reset after you finish the screen calibration, run the extended_rom viewer and manually open/run each of the cab files except the mention cab. ( basically follow exactly what jopard said ).
I read also somewhere in this forum that someone did a differrence search on the registry between GPRS always on and GPRS off when idle. With this method you can change the setting without hard reset.
Hi, the mentioned cab installs the following registry key (among others):
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings]
"CacheTime"=dword:0000003c
"SuspendResume"=hex(7):\
69,6e,74,65,72,6e,65,74,00,00,00,00
I guess it must be the SuspendResume setting. Can you post your setting without applying the cab file?

This is my setting running my own cook 1.60.06 skiping that file:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings]
"SuspendResume"=hex(7):7E,00,47,00,50,00,52,00,53,00,21,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"CacheTime"=dword:00000258
And yes my GPRS is always on.
Hm, I'll try that, but I had another problem:
When I was always GPRS-connected my GSM-connection was always lost
after 12-24h. The device showed that it is connected but I could not dial out and I could not be called.
Now since I am not "always on" anymore I do not have this problem anymore.
Did you experience something similar?

Mine work fine I can call, received phone/sms while npop and aim is running in the background.
is there
Is there a way to do this without hardrestting? It just took me two hours to load all the program into XDA. Can I just hack the reg?
thanks
my rom
My rom does not even have this cab in the ext file. Can I hack it in the reg?
I have XDA II 1.50WWE ROM
thanks

I think you will find that many carriers have a "timeout" after several hours of non use.

SuspendResume
What does this look like in the registry:
This is my setting running my own cook 1.60.06 skiping that file:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings]
"SuspendResume"=hex(7):7E,00,47,00,50,00,52,00,53,00,21,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
I have PHM Registry Editor, and entering the entire string does not look like a meaningful option.
Is it a REG_DWORD with a base of HEX ?
Regards
Michael
I use resco registry editor you can just import in that registry.
I found another post regarding this issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=26866
I'm afraid I do not understand how this thread has evolved.
I understand the posts that speak to the hard reset and softreset within 3 seconds to keep the device ROM applications from loading. From there to install fix for viewing extended ROM files and then load everything except TMD, and perhaps some of the T-Mobile apps you do not want. Although the response says a specific TMD file and some other TMD-no specifics, all or some?
The balance of the thread seems to speak to radio settings.
Is it being said that you can change some settings on the radio stack and get the GPRS always on? If so how do you do this in reasonably simple terms?

Nonintrusive Keep-Alive
The intrusive solutions are enticing to me but they are for "developers". From a user's point of view, I am always worried about doing something and then not being able to restore it to the original state (or having to spend a lot of time to get back) should something go wrong. My bandage solution (unique to my use situation) is to open an ssh or a telnet window and run a shell script which loops to print the current timestamp and then sleeps for 5 seconds. A T-Mobile tier 2 tech guy told me that the disconnection was by design for the benefit of network service providers so that they can save on connection resources.
By the same token, I like the Keep-Alive application solution - I think it is worth my $2.45 (See thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=5220). I wonder if the to-come T-Mobile Windows PPC 2003 comes with some sort of control that is equivalent to the Keep-Alive application - in a matter of a month or two, supposedly.
Okay okay...I know there are already a few CAB files with performance tweaks, but I made one (my 1st CAB file ) with the settings I like!
You can download 2 versions, one for Dutch users (like me) and one for WWE users.
I have 2 different versions because of a Today Item tweak with the Calendar and on Dutch Roms this is called Agenda.
I know that most of the settings here are also in apps like Registry Wizard, but this CAB files executes way faster then installing and configuring Registry Wizard
A little note: You can uninstall the program, but the settings will stay in the Registry so you have to change them manually!
Regards,
Molski
UPDATE (04-08-2006):
I updated the file to file into one file for Dutch and WWE users, I almost forgot about this file so I still didn't mention what all the registry changes are doing, but like Dr. Puttingham said....in the Wiki you can find everything back!
This file also consumes about +/- 1-2 MegaByte from your RAM Memory, but hey...what do you like more...More RAM or More Speed?
p.s. Here you can see which Registry Settings are applied in the CAB files:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms]
"dot11SupportedRateMaskG"=dword:00000008
"dot11SupportedRateMask"=dword:00000001

Thanks molski, could you include a list of what all the reg tweaks do, for those not so techie, either in a post or txt or doc format, cheers.
I will....when I have some more time, I barely had the time to make this CAB file for myself
Nice going. My files are downloaded 14 times already, so I guess people find my files useful?
If so, please let me know, I will see what more I can create or adjust
I had a huge load of support with my questions on this forum, so it's nice to finally do something back for the community

Molski
thx,
can be usefull after upgrade or hard reset

I dont know if it works on a S200, it is created for a Wizard, so I can only say try it and see if you notice any difference in performance
Molski
any chance you can explain what exactly the tweaks do?
Hi, is there a guide how to make a cab file that automatically installs registry tweaks? I'd like to make my own custom one, so after a hard reset I don't have to do the tedious tweaking...
Could someone explain how to make one of these CAB files for registry changes? I have searched high and low for the answer.
I did something similar for my 8125. Since I have a tendency to frequently hard reset it, I did a registry file with a bunch of the normal hacks I do, as well as setting up MMS and such. Works like a charm, although I use Resco Explorer with the registry option to do it. I haven't made a CAB file yet.
Saves loads of time after a hard reset.
How might one make this registry file? I'd really like to know.
What do the tweaks do.. .please
Can you tell us what these tweaks do?
@wiredup If you read the WIKI you'll get a lot of knowledge regarding the reg settings. These WM5 changes have been documented countless times here and also on the BA WM5 forum and other places I'm sure.
You can do some googling for more knowledge if you so desire.
molski incorporated these into a very nice cab file that is one of the very first things that I install on all of my devices. His is the most complete so far regarding speed improvements IMO
(Just one of his many contributions)
Thanks again molski!

What is the default value for Glyphcache? I read bot 8 and 4 MB in different threads?
Tweaks...
You're tweaks seem good so far... Would be nice if you could put what each one does... I am familiar with most thou. I like my GPRS/EDGE Icon to be different, so I went back and changed that. Also are skinny scroll bars actually providing better performance?
I'm gonna try this out for awhile with OMAPSCALER set at 228 (I had it at 240 with random shutdowns before, but I dont think it was overheating) and see how my performance is.
Also there are programs out there that will create CABs that change registry values... i.e. "WinCE CAB Manager"

Hello,
I was able to install it ion Hermes (WM6) and runs smoothly.
I dug into it and by trial/error I was able to delete/create new shortcuts for system setings.
For some obscure reason I was not able to assign any new applications.
Can anybody who owns a Chinese enabled device, try this and maybe help us understand the menu/options?
Thanks.

*additional info:
You might've noticed, there're 2 number delimited by comma in every shortcut. Eg. Bluetooth, the 2 numbers are "23,0". The first number is the id for Bluetooth, while the second number is the tab's id. If you open up the bluetooth setting, you will see 3 tabs: Mode, Devices, and COM Ports. 0 is for the first tab, 1 is for the second, and so on. So if you wish to open up Bluetooth and point straight to the Devices tab, just change it to "23,1".

tried to install to my Wizard, it just shows up with "Installation of HTC Touch.cab was unsuccessfull"
Anyway, thanks.
Just use the original cab to install the app, and copy this xml to \windows\.
I also tried to make a cab with just the replaced xml and kept failing.
BTW you cannot use "&" in the xml else the app fails, so you cannot launch the picture viewer now, you got to change it in start menu, or make a direct link to it.
ATM translating the exe but can't read Chinese, but succesfully translated some random text.

A resource hacker is a no-go, if you want to change specific strings you can't run the app anymore.
I already figured out what's doing what and how I should translate it, but it's just no use.
dev's homepage?
http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=s1
This is a partial translation, install the original cab, and replace the exe and xml from both this zip and the one I posted earlier.
Sometimes I had to come up with funny translations as the programe would else crash, thus cancel became no, custom icon just icon, and provider became net.
Other parts I couldn't get working in a right way so are still as they were.
Maybe someone else can translate it better.
Hello Together,
here's solution on how to get Blackberry Connect running on Topaz:
Instructions:
------------
- Make sure you have uninstalled blackberry connect before doing the following.
- Attached you will find a small zipped executable (EnableBBCTopaz.exe). Unzip it and copy it over to the \windows\ folder of your device.
- Open a registry editor and navigate to HKLM\init
Create a new string with the name "Launch130" and a value of "EnableBBCTopaz.exe" (without the quotes of course)
If Launch130 already exists, choose a number higher than, it doesn't really matter, just make sure it is higher than the other entries so it get started after everything else.
This makes sure the exe ist started after every softreset.
- Make a softreset, or execute the EnableBBCTopaz.exe manually.
- The program changes your model-id from "HTC-Topaz" to "HTC-Raphael" in memory
- Install Blackberry Connect like you usually do (My tests where successfull with version 4.0.0.104, 4.0.0.106 didn't work for me -- just hung up after a restart)
- After installation and the auto-reset through BBC open the BBC settings and go to the Info-Tab. Under device-name there should now be HTC-Raphael.

The solution is in fact the one from Rhodium forum, the respect goes to them, in particular to c0rnholio. The instructions are also copied from their thread. I just changed the program to fit to Topaz.
hi gnick.
Thanks a lot for providing a solution for this issue, but I cannot get it working...
The Client keeps stating: "PIN Pending". When I try to register the account the data tunnel gets established for a second but then it gets disconnected again.
The SIM is working fine in a Blackberry.
I already tried to reinstall the BB Client several times, but I always got the same results.
The device-ID is set to HTC-Raphael, so that shouldn't cause any issues.
Additionally I tried to kill the bbmain.exe and suspended the log and security services and reenabled them after a few seconds, but still no success.
If you have any further hints on what to try, pls. let me know...
Thanks in advance,
TheOmen666
Which blackberry client version do you have?

Hmm, hard to tell, really.
Which provider do you have? Your provider needs to support HTC Raphael.
Mine (Vodafone Germany) does support HTC Raphael (Touch Pro).

Thanks for the tip, but I too cannot get it to work. It did work in my HTC Diamond (that's Diamond "1", not "2"). I wonder - can you change the programme to suit the Diamond 1 instead please? I mean Diamond 1 instead of HTC Raphael. I wonder if this will make a difference.
By the way, does anyone know if RIM will bring out any software to make this all work?
Hi mitsi, did it work at the end?

Hi Gnick, partly. I got it to work with stopping the Blackberry Service and then activating the programme (your one) after a soft reset. However, after every soft reset, I will need to do the same process.
Open MemMaid
Stop Blackberry Service
Open File Explorer
Start your programme
Open File Explorer
Start BlackberryMain.exe
Close File Explorer
Enjoy emails.
This is too much like hard work, so I think I will be either selling my Diamond 2 and going back to my Diamond 1 or keeping both, using the Diamond 1 and waiting for a better fix to become available by subscribing to this thread (and others) and hoping that decent clever chaps like yourself will come up with a fix!!!
By the way, one other item that needs fixing is that I am only able to have my work email on this. I do not have the Blackberry Secure Internet (the one to send service packs and add other email accounts). So I can't get my home email..
There is one other alternative by the way:
This is to write a Mortscript programme that does this tedious process automatically.... I have made enquiries to someone I know....
@gnick
Thats a good point, asking for the Provider...
Well I checked the websites of T-Mobile Germany and the last device I found, where you could officially download the bbconnect client was the "Kaiser" (Mda Vario III, HTC TyTN II, AT&T Tilt ).
This means, that I either have to get rid of my Topaz or convince you to make a special version where the model-id is set to the one of the Kaiser (I only found "KAIS120") but I am absolutely unsure wether this is the korrekt model id used for the bbconnect client.

Hi All,
I finally got it working.
As I am running WM 6.5 on my device, I had to change the AKU String in the Registry HKLM\System\Versions to ".1.6.3".
After changing this, I got a PIN and could do the Enterprise Activation with my account.
Thanks a lot to all for the effort to get this working on the Topaz.

Hi All,
I too got it working. I followed the tips on this thread and on the one by cOrnholio with the following notes:
AKU set to .1.6.1
BBC version 104 worked (106 didn't) just as you said gnick .
Blackberry still crashes Manila sometimes when deleting the last email and exiting tmail.
I cannot activate my other email accounts as the Blackberry Browser (I think this is BES) does not load, even after the prompt "The internet connection is currently in use by the BlackBerry browser. Would you like to temporarily disable BlackBerry browsing? Yes/No". Once disabled and refreshed, it still does not connect. I think I read this on cOrnholio's thread.
Sent mail from pc does not redirect mail to the sent mail folder on the D2 but into the inbox instead.
The soft reset problem still exists, but it does at least work. My D2 has now had emails for the last 3 days.... Fortunately the D2 is more stable than the D1 so soft resets are required less often.
My thanks go to gnick and cOrnholio for this. I can now use my D2!
By the way, I have made some simple shortcuts which make the process following a soft reset simpler:
Add shortcut to BBMain.exe to the start menu
Add shortcut to MemMaid to the start menu
Set MemMaid to re-open at same page in Advanced Settings
A couple more tips for new people at this:
Be patient. Sometimes you can try the same solution more than twice and get different results
Be patient. The IP Address and PIN don't always appear immediately.....
Regards

Hello mitsi, setting the "Launch130" key in the registry to EnableBBCTopaz.exe as described in the instruction in the first posting should ensure that EnableBBCTopaz.exe starts automatically befire BBC. This is the "clever" way to autostart it without doing any manual work. If it doesnt autostart, that could mean that you have a spelling error in the regkey name, regkey value, or that you havent placed the file in the \windows folder.

Hi gnick,
I must admit, I haven't checked this, but I have had problems before with Blackberry. Because our IT Dept in their wisdom have set the security to lock the phone after 60 minutes of inactivity, I keep having to unlock it. I have a Mortscript programme which does this for me thanks to EdSub, but it would appear that Blackberry takes a higher pecking order after a soft reset so the Mortscript isn't activated before Blackberry, no matter how I try to configure it. Therefore, I suspect Blackberry will start before your programme too, so it would then think the phone is a D2 instead of a Rafael immediately after soft reset.....
If your Blackberry has the Security Policy set by your IT Department, you too may have this issue, but otherwise, it may be possible to start your programme before Blackberry starts.
Isn't it all rather silly??? The things we do to get our phones to our liking eh???

It shouldn't take longer than a few minutes. You may be able to help it on it's way by going into Blackberry settings, then in the Utility tab, press "Register Now". Then if you go to the Identy tab your PIN and IP address should appear hopefully.
nothing appens when i press "activate now "....
same probleme with a touch hd ...Bes account has been reset ...but pin and ip still pending
i'll wait ...
want a good new : already broke my digitizer yesterday :s got to change it ...
News from HTC
Hi All,
For your information, I sent the following question to HTC:
"Dear Sirs, I have an HTC Touch Diamond 2. I have requested information before on how to get Blackberry Connect working on this phone but had the response "we don't support third party applications". This is fair enough, but please see this link: http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=497&news_id=61. If you support this on other HTC phones, then why not the Diamond 2? Do you have plans to develop this further? I would appreciate your help/comments on this please."
I received this response from HTC:
"New Response From [ Mike (EU team) ]
Hi Paul,
The link you found is for Asian devices, not European ones.
Blackberry Connect is not supported by HTC Europe and there are no plans to release the 3rd party application or test its compatibility.
Please contact Research In MOtion to see if there is compatible version for your device.
Best Regards
Mike"
Hopefully they will change their minds in the future. Has anyone tried RIM?
mine worked 2 days later
had to wait only because my orange data network was pending ...
now it works perfectly
I've edited my thread to include various cabs that I've compiled or created to make things a little bit easier for people...
1. Here's the original thread, which was the compilation cab...
2_Way_Plus_InCall_Recording (mskip?)
At0mang Enhanced D3D driver (At0mang)
ATT_aGPS_Settings_511_T-Back (??)
jh20001_Tilt2_Data_Speed_Fix_1.0 (jh20001)
marcini.thinkblu-tilt2 vol increase (thinkblu & marcini)
SH4Ys Raphael Net Speed Boost (SH4YD33)
thinkblu.Enable MMS Limits (thinkblu)
Tilt2HWKeyboard (??)
Vendetta_Youtube_Fix (xredjokerx)

NOTE: I AM NOT TAKING CREDIT FOR ANY OF THESE EDITS, I AM JUST POSTING A FILE THAT MAY HELP OTHERS
The compilation cab is mostly for att users running Energy Rom, but I can remake it for anybody who wants me to, just ask!
2. Youtube Fix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5074509&postcount=74)
3. Advanced Network Program for those running Jh20001 data fix and are missing the program to enable HSPDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5552631&postcount=9885)
4. Sense 2.5 Internet Tab Landscape support (original version with 2 quick links): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5573204&postcount=8402
5. CookieMonster Homepage Quick Edits, no registry touching required! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5643796&postcount=1275
There are more cabs further down... Please send me a PM if anybody wants a compilation cab made for them, and i'll upload it onto this thread.
and feel free to donate!
Anyway I could get just the tilt2 data speed fix and raphael net speed boost cabs from you?
just a little tip: a lot of chefs use some kind of customization tool (for e.g. NRG uses UC, Sergio and Ark use Autoinstall, etc)
they are really convenient for flash addict like me
have a look at the top post of each rom...they usually have instructions on how to use these tools
Thanks for the cab, amazing job saved me a bunch of time trying to search for all this individually.
here you go
anyone else have any requests? i can make different cabs with and without edits.. just let me know!

X,
Does this cover the enabling of proxy settings and what ATTWi-FiforWindo.cab, and removehiddenproxy?
it doesnt, because i never looked into those cabs since i was using a custom rom, but im currently checking it out..
do you want me to add them in for you? i can reupload another cab with removehiddenproxy and the attwifi cab too.
What's this ATTWififorWinmo cab you all speak of?

It's a cab that allows you to see and access all the WiFi hotspots that at&t offers anywhere you are for free (only includes DSL subscribers or customers with a $30+ data plan).
Thanks thinkblu. This will definitely come in handy

That would be excellent. I'm on Deep Shining and I notice he has a new version coming out shortly (X3) that may already include some elements so if you don't mind let me revert back to you after he releases that this wekeend.
Of course - a worker is worthy of his wages and I'll be your payPAL shortly. thanks very much.
i've spent about 3 hours so far trying to figure out how to incorporate the hiddenproxy settings into the cab..
usually i use wince to compile my cabs, but since the hidden proxy settings are not a wince function, i've resorted to recompiling my cab through MSDOS. please give this cab a try and let me know if it works out alright... i cant guarantee that this will work..
otherwise I have also attached a cab that creates a folder on your start menu that has the hide and remove proxy shortcut in it, but you'll have to go through another cab install to remove the proxy... but this one will definitely work.
let me know , the first cab cab should directly disable the hidden proxy, as well as install all previous cabs and the attwifiwindo cab.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what does the AT&T proxy disable, and if I have a Tilt 2 and flash a custom ROM does the proxy still block anything?
honestly im not sure haha
i think all it does is let you connect to att services.
but i dont know if you have it or not when you flash a custom rom, i'd think not, if you flashed a touch pro 2 rom, but im not completely sure.
i extensively tested the data cabs today (with the exception of the youtube one)
my overall results were that the stock energy rom was faster without the data fixes, i've attached a version with no data fix in case anybody wanted it.
(this one doesnt have the youtube fix either)
mms
does this fix the mms problem i cant receive any mms on my phone or will i have to wait for the x3
there are so many problems to mms... you might want to go with an individual cab, or if you want me to, i'll add a mms fix cab in esp for you. let me know!

Is there any danger of overwriting a cab (like enable camera modes or whatever) that is already cooked in the rom we are using?
Hey X: Here is my order that will be useful for those of us on X4 Deep Shining ROM (which already has Kybd Control and Cookie Tabs):
At0mang Enhanced D3D driver (At0mang)
ATT_aGPS_Settings_511_T-Back (??)
jh20001_Tilt2_Data_Speed_Fix_1.0 (jh20001)
marcini.thinkblu-tilt2 vol increase (thinkblu & marcini)
SH4Ys Raphael Net Speed Boost (SH4YD33)
thinkblu.Enable MMS Limits (thinkblu)
Vendetta_Youtube_Fix (xredjokerx)
ATTWififorWinmo
remove hidden proxy folder
MMS Fix (M2.5) (ATT) (Valkyrie) (1.43) cab,
Is there a way to incorporate the ISP settings here? (or here:
Is there anything I'm missing that you've needed to cook for ATT fixes for Opera Streaming or marketplace support?

I would be interested in a good CAB for fixing up MMS for EnergyROM on Tilt2 (At&T). Now i go in with a registry editor and change all send sizes to 614400.
