My MDA is running the 2.24 rom and I have dloaded the google local app, but it wont connect, neither will opera mini. I'm assuming it won't work due to the fact that I'm on the T-zones plan. Has anyone gotten this to work??
BTW T-zones works for everything else for me (ie mail, AIM, donket porn, browsing...wait scrath that 3rd one). So I could just use google maps through my browser, but I'm intrigued by the new traffic function.
TIA
hi,everyone .this bother me for a long time I ask many times to get some help but no one can tell me how to resolve this.
I am in USA and use as T-MOBILE I have T-ZONE service I can use my phone online watch news you tube etc.but just msn can't online.anyone know how to fix that problem? please help on this one.thank you
no one know??! anyone live in usa have same problem??
dont know about USA. But for Vodafone NL you need to add a proxy server to your connection settings in order to get MSN to work. Maybe something like that is also needed for your provider
Some phone operators have blocked a lot of ports in order to limit capabilities of the lines. Perhaps only http port is open so MSN can't connect as it uses a specific port range to access its servers.
In France, SFR operator is acting like this, so I can't use MSN Messenger, except if I use its own specific software, which is not very attractive.
In my case MSN, Skype, don't work with proxy.
When I deleted proxy server everything works ok.
I have a sprint vogue flashed to metropcs with working internet and mms. I am running Nfsfans v14 rom. I installed android 1.5 bundle off of the google code page. I have 3 questions about android.
1.I have internet working with all the proxy settings and everything.Is there any way i can get mms working also?
2.Marketplace, Google Maps, Downloads form the browser, and Google Sync do not work. I get a connection error in marketplace, Google Maps does not load anything, Google Sync tells me to try again later, and the Browser downloads just say waiting for connection. is there any way to get all this working ??
3. is there any way to calibrate the screen? My 1,2,a,s keys are a little off
Thanks in advance
As far as your Google account not syncing - I think its a problem with any proxy based access.
I have cricket and its the same story. They use a proxy and either A) have a terrible reverse DNS issue - or B) They are blocking port 25.
This led to me not being able to have outlook connect directly with Gmail and download - id have to use the web version.
To my knowledge there is no work around for it - its an issue with the provider. Of course this is also assuming that the syncing Google does is using the same port it would for simple email.
Hi,
I´m a recent user of an Android device with now the last Official Donut ROM.
As a mobile device it is performing very nice and I like the interface (and the whole concept) a lot. However for utilization in a corporate environment it is almost useless at least in my case. Let me explain:
In a common standard company an employee when it sits at his desk he/she:
- Starts is desktop/laptop PC
- Starts his mail client that in the vast majority of cases will be Microsoft Office Outllook client that either connects to a Microsoft Exchange mail Server or to any other kind of mail server (merak, etc.)
- Then he will access to his mails, to his contacts, to his calendar and to his tasks that all of them are stored locally in Outlook files. (Well, if the server is an Exchange server they can be stored only in the server itself). In the case of Exchange normally the connection forces to use and to install a certificate in the client.
- The he will open documents from the Microsoft Office Suite i.e. Word, Excel, Power Point.
- Eventually the employee will move from his desk and i.e. attends a meeting where he can access a corporate WIFI network that in the vast majority of sites will have a proxy.
With a mobile device I would need:
- Sync locally with the desktop the contacts, calendar and tasks
- Surf the WEB using the corporate WIFI network
- Configure an Exchange account that forces to install a certificate
- Read (and eventually modify Word or Excel documents)
With my current Android device this is what it happens:
- I can sync using HTC Sync only the contacts (as calendar is only supported if your account is Exchange)
- I cannot surf the WEB as ther is no support for WiFI proxy.
- I cannot configure an Exchange account as ther is no way of importing/installing a certificate
- In order to modify Office documents I need to pay for an app.
I would appreciate if somebody:
- Has encountered same problems as me
- Has any clue about the eventual fix of this issues
I apologize for the long post. Many thanks in advance

This is in the wrong section. Should be in general.
This is a development thread.

There is no such thing as "wifi proxy". You can however configure HTTP proxy on your phone via ADB.

Connect to Exchange server with certificate via IMAP with TLS.
- In order to modify Office documents I need to pay for an app.

Pay for the Office document editing application.
Get an HTC branded ROM instead of the regular Google one, all the features you require are implemented on those...

I second this, Drop donut and goto a Hero rom. This has all the features provided by HTC that you are seeking.
moved to general discussion
Many thanks for your promt answers.
Ridelin: Apologies for not posting in the right place.
Super Jamie: Proxy: I agree but probably you will agree with me that configuring via ADB is not the easiest way for a non Linux Expert/Developper.
Exchange: In my company the IMAP access is disabled.
Office: For sure, but I would prefer to save for a dinner.
Amon_RA: Can you recommend me one of them (donut version, spanish linguage) ?

You'll not find a donut HTC branded sapphire yet... you'll need to wait a while for those.
For cupcake roms I recommend you to NOT use those ported HERO Roms. They will run slow on sapphire devices and are actually just ported to show off with the sense interface (which is not yet released for the sapphire). They are definitely not suited to be used in a corporative environment.
I advice you to look for a stable HTC sapphire rom which has the HTC framework (so full exchange support).
Thanks Amon_RA.
Where can I find those ROMS? Looking in XDA and on Internet all ROMs seem to be either Google or Hero ports. I did not manage to find "HTC branded Sapphire" . By the way my device is a Vodafone Magic Spain with:
Mode number HTC Magic
Base Band version: 62.505.20.17H2.222.19.261
Kernel version: 2.6.29-TheOfficial [email protected] 2
Emomther Mod by [email protected]
Fastboot info:
SAPHIRE PVT 32B
HBOOT 1.33.2005 (SAPP10000)
Radio 2.22.19.61
Roadsync will sync with exchange servers.

Documents to Go will give you access to word, excel docs.

If you install the cyanogen rom to your phone it gives you an app called work email. This lets you connect to the microsoft exchange server to get your email
As for word documents and the like check out an application called quickoffice:
http://www.quickoffice.com/quickoffice_android/
I can't find it on the android market so you must have to get it direct from their site.
edit: Also I think wifi proxy works with the rom. I think the wifi at my uni is via proxy. Before I installed the rom I could not connect, afterwards I could. Let me know how it goes for you.
Hi,
the default windows messenger in htc touch really sucks..
Is there a way to install yahoo messenger on my mobile..
pls help..
Thanks
Visit Yahoo! website. They do have a link that provides the download for PPC.
However, I still do have some issues in getting it to connect via my GPRS, as it does not take accept the WiFi connectivity.
Alternately, you can use Webmessenger, which integrates MSN, Y!, AOL, ICQ.
It says trial, but keeps running even after the trial period.
