Youtube App - HD2 General

mike91t said:
I've found it to be very fast on ATT. I have gotten around 180kbps download using the iphone speed test site but it loads pages so quick! And as stated it will auto configure. Only problem I had was that youtube failed to work on wifi so I had to delete the wap.cingular proxy in the registry for youtube.

I have not been able to access youtube videos. When I select the youtube icon, the program open up. When I select a video to play, I get the continuos loading wheel and nothing ever happens. I have setup to run only on GSM band, as we can not receive 3G here in the US. I am currently on a wifi network. Is the above step for deleting the wap.cingular proxy necessary to have youtube work? If so, can you identify it's location for a regedit? Thanks.

I am.having the exact same problem. I have had this problem before but only in cooked ROM's.
I would appreciate some help as well.

I believe this edit performed by mike91t may solve this issue. I am going to try in the near future. If anyone else trys the below edit, and that solves the problem of accessing youtube on wifi, please post results to validate. thanks.
"I removed the value "wireless.cingular.com:80" from the Proxy setting under the key HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{EF097F4C-DC4B-4c98-8FF6-AEF805DC0E8E}\HTTP-{436eF144-B4FB-4863-A041-8F905A62C572}. next, i fired up the YouTube app and it connected almost instantly. i waited for 3 minutes, soft reset and tried again to make sure the settings are not reset automatically: the settings survived and YouTube connected almost instantly."

Error connecting to WiFi, Need help

Sup,
I'm having trouble connecting to my wireless router with my Qtek 9000 Windows Mobile 5.
Technically it is connected, but no webpage loads. It's a netgear wireless G router with the settings set to b/g.
I tried in both, PIE and Opera.
I tried with "Phone" on and off to see if that makes a difference.
I get an error message in PIE:
"The page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was
lost. Check the connection and try again later."
Google is the only page that loads, but I think because its cached?
I get this message when I try a search:
"The page cannot be displayed because the server could not be found or a DNS error occurred."
The error I get in Opera is:
"Could not connect to proxy server
http://mail.google.com/mail/"
when connecting to gmail.com.
Please, any help?
Edit:
I have another problem too. Youtube worked in Opera with Flash Player 7 PPC except the video loaded like the first 29seconds and then stopped. When I would play what was loaded, it would lag play and then go to the replay/share screen.
I also tried the FlashVideoBundle + TCPMP combo. With the combo, I tried with and without Flash7 installed and it doesn't work at all on PIE. I would get a "Video not available" error when clicking on a search result on Youtube.
So if anyone has a solution for this problem too, please advise.
Reply:
Go to the Connections Tab in settings,
Then click the Connections icon
Click the advanced Tab
Click Select Networks
Change both Drop Down Menus to "My ISP"
Click OK till you get to the Home Screen and try accessing a webpage...
I hope This Works
But wouldn't that mess up my GPRS settings?
BTW, thanks for the reply.
Dude, it worked! Awesome!
So if I have to use T-MobileWeb (tzones) GPRS, I just switch both back to work?
BTW Thanks.
Can not connect to Wifi after WM 6 upgrade
I just changed all my settings to MY ISP and I'm still getting connection errors
A Delayed Response
Sorry about failing to respond for a while...but, anywho... in the screen with the drop down menus...you're gonna want to set the first drop down menu to "My ISP" and the second drop down menu to whatever GPRS connection you use...respond with details if this fails to be of help
And...a response to Ol' Blake
The ISP setting that your attempting to change won't affect the failure to connect to certain wifi...some problems with the WM6 for the Jasjar prevent the device to connect to wifis with WPA security...I believe...I'm writing this through personal experience and what I have read in other posts...btw...is the wifi that you are attempting to connect to password protected?

I have also been trying this without success. I currently have two versions of the SKY+ Java software, one which works with the touchscreen one which doesnt. the touchscreen one always times out during connection whereas the non touchscreen one says "The data connection has failed" whenever I press the login button. The app itself seems very compatible and appears to fill the WVGA screen very nicely, however we will need someone who knows a little more about how to "point the the java app in the right internet direction" (excuse my non technical description, this is where my technical ability runs out ) the java emulator itself does not help much as it contains no options to apply to the app
I have it working great. Just install the JBED Java version and then install it from inside that. It only logs in when you have the Vodafone proxy disabled though.
It's great to have a 50 channel EPG!!

could you please expand a little, how do you 'disable the vodafone proxy'? as far as I can tell that doesnt really make any sense! I really want to get this software working so any help you can give as to how you set yours up would be most appreciated, Thankyou
This worked for me:
Install Jbed attached above and use it to install the Sky.jar program.
On your Xperia go through:
settings
then select the connections tab
then the connections icon
followed by the advanced tab
Now chosse the select networks button and in the top drop down menu (the connection for programs which automatically connect to the net to use) and change it to "WEB" rather than "My ISP".
My ISP uses wap.vodafone.co.uk as an access point name via a proxy server.
WEB uses "internet" as an access point name without using a proxy server.
You do need to also do the following to get the service runiing:
1. Register for "my sky" at the sky website.
2. Add remote recording to the list of services runningon your my sky account
3. Activate remote recording on your sky box through its menu system
I've tested it out and I can access the 7day listing guide and send record instructions straight to the box (only takes 1-2mins).
Has anyone got this working on an o2 X1 - I don't have a "Web" option in my connections!

The WEB is a Vodafone name. I know o2 work on the same type of system (web and wap) so if you list what's available we should be able to take a guess at which one you should be using.
Hi artesea, thanks for your response. I have just tried again.... the o2 X1 has a choice of My ISP or Work Internet - so selected Work Internet and bingo it all loaded at connected at last
Tested it and within five seconds it updated my sky HD box!!!!
Thanks all!
Hi,
Sorry for the slight change in direction in the topic but it is relevent (hopefully you guys will agree)
whats the difference between "My ISP" and "work Internet" other than one points to the providers proxy server? Im with o2 and have the unlimited web bolt on - is this only unlimited web as long as i go through the "My ISP" connection?
If not, I dont actually see the point in going through the ISP's proxy at all?
Cheers,
Craig
Both Vodafone and o2 have two types of connections, can't remember the exact names so I'll call them INTERNET and WAP.
They were set up back in the day when the internet on your mobile was WML files and not much else.
WAP would allow you to access the internet on your phone, mainly to the companies own portal (Vodafone Live! etc).
INTERNET was to be used by a computer connected to the phone via Infrared or data cable. The networks have compressors at their end to decrease the size of the files to make it quicker and cheaper (you might notice images look crap). Connecting over WAP wouldn't work.
Since then phones have got very smart, and networks are getting behind.
For example you can't access Vodafone Live! whilst using INTERNET, but then you can't access a 3rd party app on WAP.
I can see that some apps are being allow over WAP (google maps), however I've found it a lot easier to have everything running over INTERNET.
Not 100% sure if o2 will allow you to use INTERNET in your bundle, but Vodafone do.
Can someone post the Sky Remote Record java app? Or at least post a link where they found it. I have it working on my X1 but the program size is so small it is hard to read.
How do you get around the issue of logging in using an O2 X1? I have the app installed and can enter username and password but can't select login. I saw a suggestion was to map the left and right keys to volume up and down (think it was for a differernt handset though) but when in the buttons settings there is no options to remap these keys to volume.
The left and right buttons are mapped to Login and Exit already.
My problem is the network not found problem. Like hell I'm installing another Java. I did that with my old Polaris and had nothing but problems afterwards.

But on my handset (and I know some other peoples) the login button (left softkey) does not function so you can't even login. It would appear that some people have a workaround for this, just wondering what that is.
after a bit of hair pulling i finally managed to get this to work at last.
I finally bit the bullet and de-vodafoned my device to the new R2A ROM (using SD card method - see other threads for more info).
I use AE Button Plus to remap the left and right soft keys to "hard" keys (select left key -> 3. Handle by AEBplus -> 1. single press -> 11. press left soft key. Same for right (soft)key). After hitting OK choose file then "save & exit"
This might help O2 users with the connection setup.

If you are looking for the two applications required then goto message #3 of this thread (thats on page 1) then click the link. Goto message #4 of the resulting thread for links to the applications
Help
I have reassigned the left and right key with AE Button Plus but still cannot login or exit via the keys?
Any help out there?
For me, the hard key to log in would only work when the keyboard is open. Odd, but gets around it and I can now at least remote record.
I have just assigned the buttons, so they always operate the softkeys, which is a bit annoying as I prefered one for rotate screen. Is there a way to only map the buttons within the Java app?
Thanks sebring
This appears to be the same for me.
Keyboard open and the reassigned keys work....really strange that.
Thanks again.

Problem with Twitter app Peep

Am I just being a tool? (Don't answer that)
I can't seem to select a link in a tweet on the new HTC HD2 twitter app in Sense. If it try to select a link or twitpic it just brings up a menu asking if I want to reply to the tweet. In other twitter clients it takes you to the picture or brings up the internet.
Also, it doesn't seem to be updating if I click 'Update now' in the menu. I just get a 'Download error'. It says it's connected to my HSDPA network
OK I might have just answered my own question
It appears you have to select the person and go to their profile, in there you can actually double click on the link and it takes you to Opera.
Still not sure about the 3g connection problem though.
Anyone else getting this?
Seems to work fine over wi-fi
Yes I experience the same problem when connected via 3G. Mine also works fine when connected to wi-fi too. Tried it again at the station this morning and again it failed to update or connect via 3G. Not sure what the problem is?!?
I have problem with posting to Twitter on wifi and on 3G (or GPRS), i dont know what was a problem, but after hardreset is it OK, only auto download doesnt work, manually updates, posting, profiles, everything OK on any connection (AS, WIFI,3G...)
tiny url not working
anyone has this problem?
Strange 'L' appeaiorng before url in Peep
Hi All
This is a bit strange. I'm using Peep and it's mostly OK. The only problem I'm experiencing is when I use the 'insert maplink' geo-tag feature...it shortens the url but puts an 'L' before the shortened url.
Example -
L:http://tinyurl.com/yd32dsm
If I then check it in Twitter, the addition of the 'L' stops the link being clickable. It doedn't seem to matter which shortening service I use
Obviously, I can manually remove the 'L' from Peep before updating, but it's a bit of a pain. Anyone else getting the same problem?
Cheers
Steve
Nope not getting that problem on Geo tagging I use TinyURL.
Ref opening links you can open them straight from twitter feed but you have to be exact where you press and just a quick tab not a long one. It can sometimes be annoying but I think I must just have the knack.Also opera being open quickens the process.
Hello,
I also see the problem with connecting to twitter. I have not tried over WLan but when I try over normal 3G I get an error that connection to twitter was not successful. I have typed the correct login credentials.
Very strange...
my issue is that i deleted a msg on my pc but it still remains in peep

This is the issue I have. With the stock T-Mobile 1.43 ROM, Peep actually worked fine over GSM/3G and WiFi even though everything else on the phone was buggy, laggy and unstable.
Using 1.61 I now have the experience where Peep and MSN messenger will only connect through WiFi. If I try to connect with GSM/3G I get the connection error. Is this issue present in 1.48, as I'm thinking of giving that a try.
i also cannot connect over gprs, how strange.
has any fix been found yet?

Thats a general twitter thing, I think. I've seen a lot of apps behave like that
Same problem here!
It worked once or twice but generally it doesn't. Really annoying as it is one of the features I would like to use most.
Wohoo!!! Fixed it. The key is that you need to update the connections database, reboot and THEN disable the proxy.
1) Goto Settings > Wireless Controls > Tap Data Connection (the label, not the switch)
2) Tap menu, then Update Database
3) Follow the instructions and then OK the reboot.
4) Once restarted, goto Settings > Menu, All Settings. Then Connections, Connections again, then Set up my proxy server.
5) Disable the proxy and you're all set.
WOHOO!!!!

HTC Peep login problem

Anyone else having problems with HTC Peep? I can't get it to login to any twitter account, just gives me a login failed (wrong username password type message).
Also use moTweet with no such problems (but would like to use Peep too to stay logged into one account)
It did work once, but not for a week or so now.
yea im getting that too. I think its part of the general network problems that constantly afflict this buggy phone :-(
I get mail connection issues while opera works fine.. I am starting to think it might be something to do with the way the programs call the network interface in WinMo.

I had a Google around and it seems some Android users were getting some similar problems with Peep in Sense UI. Wonder if it's more to do with the Peep app rather can a network issue?
Anyone else getting this problem?
Appreciate if you use Peep and it's working you post a reply too (realise that many others will be using other twitter apps instead due to peep being a little limited in functions)
Hi,
I am on vodafine UK and peep works without any issues on my HD2. On hero, Peep works on wifi as and other networks but does not work on Vodafone UK(regardless of the AP settings).
Vodafone is not blocking the ports, however they are certainly manipulating the incoming data to the devices. Some applications get affected from this process. While there might be other work arounds, I have noticed that using SSL for web requests in the applications resolves issues. For instance, an application I was working on was working ok on wifi deserializing json data from the server but it was failing to do so on Vodafone data connection. Using https instead of http on the server fixed the issue. Of course, this is a fix that need to be applied within the application.

I had the issue with mine too so I created new account on twitter. After sucessfull login there I went back and all was ok. (It is the trick found by some1 else here...)
I've had it not work a couple of times, but 99% of the time it works all the time
it only works with my vodafone if I disable the proxy.. otherwise it only works with wifi..
but when I switch from wifi to 3G, the first time the applications try to connect again.. also weather etc. I get a connection error, althought the 3G/H icon flashes. also after a reboot.. but when I try to connect again it works fine..
not a real problem as I hardly use wifi on it as the 3G connection is really fast and at home the computer is always on and within reach..
when you disable the vodafone proxy, you won't be able to get in the live portal site and/or use those services.. but who cares about that..
generally this fixes a lot of things in the phone, as everything connects to "The Internet" by default. But the vodafone automatic settings screw them up. With the proxy disabled the The Internet account works again and this means it will use wifi when it's on, if not it will use 3G. With the proxy disabled you can also set your mail accounts to "The Internet" instead of "Vodafone live!" and it can receive mail over wifi and 3G.
I tihnk mine worked with T-Mobs 1.43 ROM, but since using 1.61 (and a dabble with 1.48) mine only connects to Twitter through WiFi, not through GSM or 3G. The same is true for MSN messenger too.

Have Twitter changed something recently? I used to be able to connect using Tweetdeck & Digsby on my PC, as well as the HTC Peep app and moTweet.
No it seems I can only be logged on with one of these applications, or maybe I am barking up the wrong tree.... deffo wouldnt work on HTC HD2 until I logged out of my PC app.

TMOUS unfortunately, there is no UPDATE DATABASE, in my data connections.
may sound stupid, but this happens to Peep if you ever used Opera Mobile 10 for Twitter. Solution: log in to Twitter via OM10 and force manual logout there. Peep should be OK afterwards.

I have also experienced the problem with youtube. It usually goes away after restarting the phone. Also for the secured wireless network at school try to manually add it by pressing other in the WI-FI settings on your kin.

I have tried that. I have also tried messing around with the types of networks (wpeg and wpeg2 or somthing) but none of them give me a username and password box. Ive also found out that itouch users gotta plug in a port number too, is it possible to use the hidden menu to connect to this network?
Also, restarting my phone didnt solve the problem of no youtube on home wifi. It doesnt even buffer...
