Can you get WAP to work on HTC 6900? - Networking

OK,
I've got an HTC6900 on Page Plus. Everyone knows they shut down data for some reason on smart phones last month. Is there any way to set it up to use WAP to get data on the Verizon network? I know it will be muuuuch slower than 3g, but some is better than nothing.... I see some settings for wap proxy under the connection tab, but don't know what info to put there, such as user name, is it my phone # or some other name? Is the password vzw like it is on the regular settings? Thanks in advance, I did do some searching, but can't find anything pertaining to the HTC 6900. Thanks. RG

T-Mobile US Cab File

Hi,
Does anyone have or know where I can get a hold of this file. I flashed my Vario with the K-Jam Rom and now can't connect to the network.
Thanks
Did You mean Can't make calls?
Or internet?
Here are the T-Mobile US Settings, which is what I assume you're looking for.
Jon.
Thanks for the file. I programed in the internet settings myself, and although it was slow, it finally connected to T-Mobile for voice calls.
Cheers,

Jon - you rock. I thought I was about to spend too much additional money for a frinkin' cab file. got mms and gprs to work. now if I can just figure out how to set up email and get a wireless lan bug i have.
On the wireless side - I can get it to connect to my wireless router - but I cannot get it to browse the web via pocket IE. Any thoughts out there?

If you are using T-Zones service you can't get IE to work straight off as they have disabled port 80 and you can only go through the T-Zones proxy. It's a pain - the way around is go into T-zones (wap.myvoicestream.com) and use the options in the menu there to get to the web pages you want - I set up the ones I use as T-Zones bookmarks. I have a feeling if you pay for the 19.99 monthly internet service you can use the IE straight but havent tried that yet
Ok, maybe a stupid question, but what does this file really do?
I had Internet service working ok with the plain jane qtek 9100 rom after making an account and poking in the right GPRS gateway, and voice calls worked as soon as I put in the sim. Text and MMS seemed fine too (at least until I upgraded to the new qtek rom - but that's another thread).
So I'm sure I'm missing something, but what actually is in the CAB?

I am not sure I understand the approach you are giving - if I want to leverage my current ISP provider and my wireless LAN connection on my K-JAM - I have to do what? What seems to be happening is I can connect to my WLAN at home - get an IP address, good signal, etc - however - when I try to go to Google or something - is says "Locating" but never connects. I messed around with the proxy setting for T-Mobile and actually turned them off - and was able to connect through my WLAN (not GPRS) - however, that screwed up my WAP setting and now I can't ge into wap.myvoicestream.com (of course). Anybody have the manual settings for the T-mobile proxy they can share? I tried reloading the T-mobile .cab file - but it errors out.
Don't you think there should be a way to use your WLAN (which I already pay for and does not cost T-Mobile any $$) and GPRS t-zones (which I already pay T-Mobile for)?
thanks works great
settings, setup? Please help!
Please help!
I installed the file, nothing seems to be changed. All the connection settings dissapeared from setup. when I go to IE, web page, right away gives me an arror message, "can't connect". before it was "loading" and it was like forever..
May be I should put in the settings manually?
Is there a detail how?
I have WM6.1 (TMobile, internet service active on the plan)
I spent hours calling tmobile tech support,, - 0!
PLEASE GIVE AN ADVICE!
Thanks a lot!
Have any of you tried my Tmobile CABs ?

TMobile GPRS Settings on 8125

Can someone tell me what I need to do to get an Unlocked Cingular 8125 to work on TMobile so my GPRS and MMS work? I tried doing a search and a lot of irrelevant posts come up.
assuming you have a data plan, the gprs access point name is;
wap.voicestream.com
That should do it, there's not PW or other logon info you need to input.
http://www.t-zones.co.uk/en/Getting_started/help_with_tzones/mms.html
On all MMS handsets, ensure that the following has been set up:
Connection Name UK MMS
Data Bearer GPRS
Access Point name general.t-mobile.uk
User name user
Prompt password no
Password one2one
Authentication secure
Gateway IP address 149.254.211.010
Homepage http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk:8002
Connection security off
Session mode Permanent
Where do I input these settings on the Phone? I actually found this site that looks like it has all the info.
http://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm21625.htm?A2L.SERVICE=
Thanks for the help.

AT&T mMode settings cab?

I looked on this page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_provider_cabs but it does not have the provider info for AT&T (mMode)
I am not sure how to create one but I think it would be something nice to have so if someone knows how this is just a request if it's not too much trouble to make.
Thanks
Here ya go.... Works for ATT as everyone says on this board... SEARCH THE FORUMS
I don't have MediaNET, I have Pre-at&t, Pre-Cingular, AT&T Wireless mMode.
Are you telling me I can use the MediaNET settings?
AFAIK I have to use "proxy" for my AP name and use some other IP's as well to be able to use mMode.
IE this config - http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=cingular&thread.id=38077
I just don't know how to make a .cab to auto set this up every time I hard reset or change my rom.
I would like to bump this up, can anybody out there create a at&t blue mmode settings cab?
You really don't need a cab. Just add a new new modem connection to "my ISP" in the settings-connections tab. Name it whatever (does not matter), choose "cellular line, gprs" from the pull down, then click next. Access point name is "proxy" and click next/finish. Nothing else needs to be done. Don't need "WAP settings", http addresses or anything else. I flash my trinity constantly and this is all I ever do.
so you don't need to put in the 10.250.250.54 connection strings for mmode and mmode mms? it gets annoying re-entering all that data just to have it gone again everytime some new hot rom comes out that i got to have.
i'd write a cab myself if i knew how.
yup like the post above yours says, all you need is to make a new connection that connects to "proxy" and your done for the mMode connection.
For the MMS the only two things you need to know are;
10.250.250.55:8080
http://mmsc.mymmode.com
Then you select the connection you made under connections and your done.
EDIT:
btw, are you in a 3G network area and is your service working?
No problems with 3G, including "H" and I am still using my original blue ATT sim from yrs ago.
Do you mind if I ask where your located?
I am really getting sick of being jerked arround!

http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=mmode&thread.id=13039
I can't get any help or response either!
DH, I'm in DC & live in MD, no problems in either of those areas.
With regard to settings, have you tried another browser? Running WM6 and using IE with the above settings never works but switching to opera solves the connection issues more often than not.
BTW I’m in the DC (Mont. Fred. And Washington county) area as well if it matters.
Hi...I got my mmode data settings to work according to your suggestion...but can't get the mms to download. I've got the old blue sim card...any suggestions for getting the MMS to work along with the data? It connects...retrieves message headers, i know who the messages are from...can even get subjects...but all the messages just hang at 0%??

Am sure a few lazy so and so's like...erm me (sometimes) will find this useful. Maybe put some other settings up on this post for other operators. Perhaps worth a look around via search first as its likely to be something that someones already done. But can't be sure.

Why not just use a .cab to do it automatically?
This is the one I've been using:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=67434&d=1201326345
Also, I recently found out I could add MediaNet under My ISP. So now if I have Wifi on, it'll use Wifi. Otherwise it'll use MediaNet.
I had MediaNet seperate so I kept having to change it. Much better this way.

This is something that I've been trying to figure out for a while. How do you add MediaNet under My ISP. I would love to be able to be on the WIFI while at work and then change to ISP when I leave.
thanks,

I am also very curious about this.

With My ISP selected, click "Edit." Then click "New..." at bottom and enter in the MEdiaNet stuff.
Thanks alot for the info. I was having trouble accessing Cingular Video after flashing to Duttys rom.
i was very confused about this and erased all of the connections
why is there Media Net and AT&T ISP GPRS?
I know this is supposed to be for *dummies*
so i guess i am one
But what's the reasoning behind needing two of them?

One is Media Net Access(and the whole internet) and the other one is for tethering.
5 stars!
Thanks, this helped a lot. Now to figure out how to tell my cooked 6.1 ROM that I am on AT&T and not roaming. Seems to be a bug on every 6.1 ROM I have flashed.
WORKS GREAT Thank You!!!

I am not sure if there is anything new but this didn't work for me. I tried this on my Tilt 2 flashed with Sergio76's The Cell ROM v9.5 AT&T (just has the AT&T dialer and nothing else AT&T). I had used a cab that fixed all of the settings to what's in the post except the AT&T ISP which I took care of no problem. However, when I go to Media Mall and search for an app, I'm told there are no results for my handset. I looked at the device ident in the settings and the IMEI is there but the s/n is wiped and I can't edit it. Maybe with a regedit...I dunno. I haven't had the time to try that. It was an idea. There's something that was wiped off the phone that identified my device to AT&T...maybe some sort of hidden proxy or certificate or simply the s/n. I haven't found any Tilt 2 users so far that are able to or even use the Media Mall so I dunno. If anyone else knows something or has figured this out please clue me in. I wouldn't mind being able to get back to the media mall.
Thanks for any help...

[Q] MMS, where are the settings? Wall mart Straight Talk Touch Pro 2. TP2

Does any one know how to make the MMS work?
I dont see a place to input the info on the straight talk activation instructions.
MMSC
MMS Proxy
MMS Port
I was only able to find the place to input the APN (att.mvno) doing this made the internet work.
So when I get a pic mail my phone shows me the text from it and tries to download it. But it fails. says Invalid MSISDN Number Received.
SMS works fine.
Sprint Touch Pro 2 TP2 Windows mobile 6.5. I have the Wall mart straight talk $15 sim card (bring your own phone) plan. I put it in the sim card slot on my Sprint TP2 and went through the steps to enable the phone to use GSM towers in the states. Calling works. But internet is only on EDGE (slower then sprints 1X) I think that is all the phone is capable of with the GSM raido it contains.
I searched the registry and found something like Http://mms.sprintmms.com changed it to http://mmsc.cingular.com and that did not work.
I dialed ##778# and hit view. there is nothing in there that looked related.
I went to start, settings, connections, connections, manage existing connections, and deleted what was there and maid a new one called Data and put att.mvno as the Access point name but there is no place to enter the mms settings in there.
I have searched google for hours and days. I give up. Some one out there has got to know the answer. Can you help?

In your MMS app, go to menu>MMS options>servers>add new server. If it's greyed out you have to do a reg edit in HKLM>Software>ArcSoft>MUI and look for "enable server edit" and change the DWORD to "1" After you change that, go back to the MMS options and "add new server" with the following data:
Server - Straight Talk MMS
Gateway - 66.209.11.33
URL - http://mmsc.cingular.com
Port - 80
Connect Via - Whatever you named your connection previously.
When you're done make sure you set that as your default server. I'm doing this from memory so I may have missed a step or the reg edit key may be named differently on the Sprint TP2. BTW, the Sprint and Verizon TP2 only supports EDGE speeds on the AT&T bands. 3G is for the AWS (1700) band like T-Mobile, HTC really screwed the pooch on that one.
Nice thank you very much for your help. My mms works now. I cant believe I did not think to check in my mms program for the place to enter the settings.
I did have to change the registry value to a 1 to gain access to the greyed out button. It was in HKLM>Software>ArcSoft>Arcsoft MMS UA>Config>UI>
Now if I can only get the mms and the sms time to be correct. Do you know any thing about that? My friend can be sitting next to me and send me a sms that I get instantly but the incoming time on the message shows totally wrong. It was like this when I was on Sprints service also. I flashed stock 6.1 and 6.5 and neither fixed it. I have Since or Touch Flow or what ever its called turned off. Just running basic home screen Spb Pocket plus 4.1.0, Spb Phone Suite 1.3.1, Garmin, Pocket shield and some other basic programs. I have a faint memory that out of the box this was not a problem. It may have been after I flashed and installed that it started. But then why did flashing back to stock not fix it? I have never flashed anything other then stock.

So you say that I can get 3G if I get the Wallmart Straight Talk sim card that uses Tmobile? Wow I will try that. My brother just ordered one from Straight talk for his T mobile branded TP2. I will try it in my phone. T mobile has almost as good of reception here on the big island of hawaii as AT&T does.

See, I didn't buy the Walmart ST SIM. I went straight to their website (straighttalkgsm.com) and got an AT&T SIM. I know you have the choice of T-Mobile or AT&T but I think it depends on the area code you will be using. As for the time stamp issue, that sounds more like a software bug than a carrier issue. Just for ****s and giggles, did you enter the proxy info in your connections? I know when I use the proxy info, mobilespeedtest.com reports my ISP as AT&T-Cingular, when I go without the proxy it lists my ISP as "shared block". Whatever that means. Google Maps also locates me faster when I have the proxy info entered. Of course, when I have to tether, I un-check proxy settings. BTW, you didn't hear that from me.

Wow checking the proxy box and putting in 66.209.11.33 does change my results from Shared IP Block to At&t. And it is 4 times faster.
I was getting a consistent download speed of only 77 Kbps and 1.1 Latency
Now I get 295 down and 2.1 Latency.
Im testing some data intensive websights now. Ok they are much faster now. All most as fast as my week reception sprint EVDO revA phone tethered to my router. The only thing sprint has over ST is that sprint does not throttle me until 30 gigs. And I have read that with the AT&T ST sim people are not getting away with much. DSL just came to my part of the jungle so I got rid of my sprint plan. I have no need to tether so much now.
I edited out my confusion from the above posts. It looks like I will never have 3g on the t-mobile or AT&T sim card on my TP2. Here is a link to some supportive reading about why 3G will not work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561656
One more thing I can send and receive Hotmail but cant send and receive Yahoo. When I try it says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings. Settings". Then If I uncheck proxy it works but then I have to go back later to re check and put in 66.209.11.33 to get my faster speed back. Why can Hotmail do it but Yahoo can not?
I had the same problem and all I did was flash a new radio which helped with signal.
Just for fun I put a T-mobile sim card from T-mobile in my TP2. My Edge internet was very slow. So put in the proxy that Straight talk gives there users with T-mobile sims and it was still very slow. Super slow compared to using the Att proxy with the ATT ST sim in my TP2.
One interesting thing I noticed is that this sim had many more electrical contact points on it and it automatically set up the correct MMS setting for me. In comparison the ST sim card had lass contact points and I had to enter the MMS manually my self.
This TP2 Im using this week is bone stock out of the box and it is not handling daylight savings time correctly when putting the time stamp on the sms. I bet there are many good threads about fixing this I have not yet searched.

Simple the settings for the Hotmail account where correct and the ones for yahoo where not.
So this was an easy fix. I click on my sms program. click menu, tools, options, click on my yahoo account, edit account setup,next,next,next, next,advanced server settings. So in here is where i had it wrong. It was on my old internet settings so I changed "network connection" to "internet" that way it will even sync my email using wifi if its on and has internet, instead of needlessly requiring to dial up over the cell data connection.
I tryed this change in the MMS settings also but my MMS wont send so I had to change it back to the cellular data connection.
