Slick messenger

Why is slick not working for my titan, it worked well for a day, but now i get an error messeger saying there is no network but i have an unlimited data plan? Palringo works fine but i want slick back, any ideas on why this might be happening, I have WM 6.1 rom updated to 3.56, my coworker has the same phone and rom but his slick works and i put it on his phone, i dont understand the problem, please help

If you recently soft reset your phone you have to manually connect to the data stream...Slick will not auto connect

How would i do that?

understand
If I understand you right, it's not connecting to the network.
If you open Slick, then go to: Menu -> Configuration -> Access Point...
Change it to: The Internet
It should then connect first to your data provider, then to your chat program.
Hopefully that's what you were referring to. Obviously make sure to setup your settings (ie, login/pw) for each account first.

I have to set my Access Point to "Sprint" for it to auto connect, FYI.

All this is set up just fine, it just keeps giving me a Connection Error messege, i looked at my cooworkers and the setting are the same, but his works and i gave him the same updates, i dont get it

Bump it, i just took the update cab within my coworkers slick folder switched from automatic to sprint and works fine now, thanx

when ever i try to log in it always says error auth failed. is there anyway to fix that. i need a good IM but i dont witch one i want to use cuz the aim betea is alil slow, and i even overclock my phone. so if u can help me can u message me thanks

GPS problem on iPAQ 6945 and AT&T questions

Hey everyone,
I last hard reset my phone a few months ago. For some reason, maybe 1 month ago or a little longer ago, my GPS function stopped working. I use Google Maps and Microsoft Live Search. Both of them have the same problem, they attempt to connect to satellites and then say GPS communication error (or something similar). When I use manual mode, it's 57,600bps and Com 7, same problem.
The GPS quick connection update thing will no longer update. I tried the Q-GPS thing yesterday and that updates just fine. When I check the system info, it shows the GPS and 2 dll files. But I can't activate the GPS.
I don't imagine this is related to installing an SD driver? I wasn't able to read my 2 gig micro-SD card (in a micro to mini adapter), after a while, so I searched for drivers, found one that worked, and then at some point when I tried the GPS, the GPS didn't work.
Any ideas? I could do a hard reset, but that's annoying as we all know, to reinstall everything, reconfigure the settings, etc.
Also, we just switched from T-Mobile to AT&T. I currently have the $10/mth plan, but it doesn't let me access my IMAP accounts. I imagine IM+ won't work either (I assume it only allows http connections?) . Is there another plan I could use or some hack, so I don't have to pay $30(!?)/month for unlimited data? I was paying $20 with T-Mobile for the Blackberry plan and that worked just fine with everything, even though T-Mobile themselves said it wouldn't work. Anything similar with AT&T?
Thanks in advance

Just to update anyone interested. I found that when my phone reboots, for a seconds it was showing About and Menu (or something like that) for the softkeys before it was fully booted. Anyway, it turned out it was for the VPN settings. Apparently AT&T had set that up by default when I installed the AT&T SIM card. Anyway, it listed a proxy server, and for the heck of it, I unchecked the proxy server. Then I ran FlexMail and guess what? It worked! For $10/month, I have full data access, I just had to turn off the proxy server.
Hopefully this helps someone..

This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data se

Hello
Just switched from symbian to android and now I really want to get some apps installed to my phone.
When I click the market app, I need to sign in with my gmail account.
But when I try this it gives me the message.
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be provisioned for data services"
The part with temporary I don't believe and the SIM card part I know is wrong as I can surf the net, sync my exchange company mail etc.
I have tried with WIFI also, but same message coming.
Living in Norway, using Netcom as carrier.
Does anybody have any clue on how I can get past this and log into market?
Best regards
TommyE

Remove the sim. Wifi should still work. Tested here fine, when I had a Hero. This will not be a data provisioning issue.

I can also confirm this. I didn't initially have a Google account, and when I tried to create one via the handset I got the data provisioning error. I master reset the phone, created a Google account online with my PC, and set the Google login details in the initial setup of the phone. After this I had no problems.
Good luck.

ditto, I didn't set up android account when I went through initial setup, and it wouldn't work later. Had to factory reset and do it during initial setup (it was happy enough using my wifi for this)

same problem on HTC Magic =(
I have HTC Magic, i purchased it several days ago and it was working just fine. Then i found out that i can't replace the google account from previous owner and decided to hard-reset.
After that I'm getting this (I'm on T-mobile USA and I have just internet for 5.99):
"This could be a temporary problem or your sim card may not be provisioned for data services, if it continues, call customer care"
Called customer care, they said it won't work without 24.99 data plan, but it WAS working before! I tried changing APN from epc.tmobile.com to wap.voicestream.com but it didn't help =(
Phone is unlocked. Without signin in to google I can't even use phone features.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I am having this issue now. I bought my Hero last week and set it up with my China Mobile SIM card. Then I decided to switch to China Unicom because they offer WCDMA 3G service. I am able to connect to CU data just fine but none of my Google apps will function. I can check gmail through the browser but not the internal application. This happens on Wifi as well.
I have done several factory resets with no luck. Any ideas?

after more than 12 hours my problem just went away. i don't know why. my guess is google has a mechanism in place to lock out accounts from more than one source or something. it's strange that i never had the problem with my G1 as often as i changed ROMs and when I changed SIM cards with it.

I've been having issues with getting signed into Google here in China as well. I had also just come back from vacation where I was using a different carrier.
I had been unsuccessful in getting a connection to the Google servers for the last 12+ hours. I have reflashed my ROM (actually three different ones) and reformated my SD card, all with no luck.
Just got to the office and connected successfully right away over our VPN wireless router, however I'm still having trouble getting Gmail to load all of my conevrsations.
So, my guess is the usual iffy Chinese connection.

it's very strange. I never had an issue with my G1 but hero has all kinds of connection issues whether on WiFi or 3G. I rarely get email notifications, this issue, and now I can't download ANYTHING from the market.

"This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card may not be
provisioned for data services"
what does this mean?, do i need a new sim card in order to use the functions on the x10 mini pro? if so what sim card and where do i buy it ?

Trouble Connecting to AT&T EDGE on my Topaz

Hi! I am experiencing trouble connecting to AT&T EDGE on my unlocked Topaz. I purchased this phone aware of the fact that I wasn't going to have 3G available but not having EDGE as well is very disappointing.
I have an AT&T GoPhone account and I have also installed the recommended settings from the Connection Wizard that popped up when I had inserted my SIM Card. However, I constantly have a gray E icon on my status bar and I am unable to access the internet. When I test the internet connection by trying to update the weather I get the following error: "The answering modem disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings."
I have called AT&T they kept me waiting for an hour and were not able to help me. They were going to file a report for the tech support to review but they did not file the report that because I did not have another telephone number to give to them beside my cell phone for them to call me back(I am an international college student, I don't have a land line). I then tried to get help from their online chat support but their system won't allow me because my account is a GoPhone. So I am stuck here with my $450 dollar phone not able to enjoy its features to its full extent .
Is there anyone else that has experienced this problem? Or is there anyone that could help me configure the connection settings manually?
Thanks!

Check with your service provider that the edge service is enabled for your account. Then check you have paid for the correct plan (I don't know the procedure that applies to AT&T, but they may require all this).
If you have everything enabled/paid for then there is no technical reason why you should not be able to connect unless there is no service in your area!

pa49, thanks for your reply. I am sure that edge service is enabled for GoPhone accounts (not 3g though) and I am sure there is service in the area. If I am not wrong, the gray "E" icon on my status bar is telling me that there is edge available but that I am not able to connect to it.
I am just hoping that there is someone here that is using an unlocked HTC touch diamond2 in the united states that is able to access the internet via edge.

Go into Settings\Connections\Connections\Advanced and make sure both networks are set to MediaNet and take out the proxy server if there is one.

Ok. Make sure you have the correct settings. Then in Manage existing connections tap and hold the modem connection and delete the entry. Reset the phone and then input the settings again manually. Don't let the phone run the auto connection setup.

Unfortunately what you have suggested is not working also :S.
Maybe I have something wrong with my settings. Even though I have done a lot of searching in order to find the correct settings for an Unlocked Diamond2, I have not been able to find the settings specifically for an Unlocked Diamond2 with WM6.1/6.5. The settings I found were for previous versions of WM or were for another HTC model.

What radio are you running?

I hate to say it but I don't think your going to get it to work. And I'm sorry because its all my fault! See for the past 4 years I have been a DM for AT&T and one day I was braging to our "smartphone support team" about how with my 8925+WMWifi+PayGo account with the 19.95 unlimited data package I could brodcast 3g wifi speeds through out my entire house with no need to worry about being charged overages for the 5GB soft limit (simply because no "real" info is needed to create a paygo account you can just say your name is Jon Doe and the give you one)
Two days later I got an email that the prepaid unlimited internet service had been disscontinued forever :-(..... And much more security was added to the system....
Your best bet to get internet working on the device is to put your sim card in an old moto razor (this way your razr IMEI doesn't flag you as a "smartphone" ) dial 611 and subscribe to the highest data package you can which is like 200MB or something.
Then you can put your sim card back in the TD2 and you should be good to go... for 200Mb's that is.... then your SOL...
and again sorry... you know what they say "loose lips sink ships"

or if you have a credit card or bank account switch to Pick-Your-Plan its a lot cheaper minute wise in the long run and you can have unlimited data just make sure to give them a bogus IMEI to some crappy razr you can find in every household....

[Q] Need some directions...

I just got my new unlocked HTC My touch 3g phone from J and R store...I put a SIM card from T-mobile from other cell phone in (prepay w/o data plan) and tried to test new device.
I cannot find a way pass first screen where I need to log in my Goggle account...it gives me a message that the SIM card does not have data plan...I thought that I will be able to get in the WI-FI menu to access the internet thru my home wireless connection and log it in that way..but no success.
My original intention was to have a phone with SIM w/o data plan and then use WI-FI for installing Apps, Games etc etc...Is that possible?...
I know that the answer is somewhere buried within these posts but I need to fix this fast ( my wife is all over me about phone not working)...if someone can give me some hints/links to the posts that can help me out I would really appreciated
Regards

Not trying to troll but this has been answered hundreds of times, mostly in threads just like this one. You cannot bypass the sign in screen on any stock myTouch/Magic ROM, only on most custom ones. If you press the menu button at the login screen, there should be an option to purchase a data day pass for $2. Do that to get in the phone, then root it and install a custom ROM so you don't have to worry about it later.

Thanks for help....I did resolve the issue....There wasn't an option to pay for data plan pass for day ( at least I did not see it in my 50+/- attempts to pass by the first screen)...what I did I went to T-mobile store and very nice young guy there helped me with store test SIM with data plan...it took 15 minutes to set up Google account and passwords etc etc and after that I put in my old prepaid SIM without data plan and phone worked like a charm. All phone functions worked and WI-FI capability allowed me to go online thru my home wireless network and to download several apps from market and to update OS to Android 2.21...etc etc

I would still root and install a new ROM. If you ever have to do a factory reset you'll have to sign in again. If you flash a new ROM, most add a "Skip" option to the login menu.

I did not know that...thanks for the hint.
I may consider it.
The only question is which ROM variant to install...
Regards

i would suggest that you try Gingerbread ROMS
