Rogers AT&T - Need GPRS Settings

I have a jasjar, and for the life of me cannot get GPRS working. My provider is Rogers AT&T in Canada. They do not support jasjar so won't answer my questions. I supposed I could call and lie and say that I have an iPAQ 6315, but instead, can anybody here help?

Update: Rogers gave me settings, still doesn't work...
Update:
Rogers gave me GPRS settings, but still doesn't seem to work. However, I have the "G" icon with the two arrows, which makes it look like GPRS is alive.
My wifi stopped working. Or, more specifically, it seems that my wifi is working, but neither my OPERA or INTERNET EXPLORER browsers are working (used the Opera hack, was working perfectly for a week or so).
SD Card, 1GB, was no longer seeable. Tried it in my wife's Axim x51v and same thing, but viewable on my PC. PC indicated corruptions, so was only able to back up some of it. Kingston Tech. is replacing card, but still have these other issues. COuld it be that my IE cache is looking to the SD card, and just refuses to run PIE in GPRS or WiFi mode because it cannot cache files??? In other words, could the bad SD card be causing all these other problems (which started happening right after SD card got messed up...
Comments?
Thx.

Holy crap, this has been asked a thousand times.
Just do a search on Rogers, Rogers APN, etc and you'll find the settings.

[Q] Losing All Data Connection

I'm now on my 2nd Focus because of this problem. 1st off, I do have an SD card in there but have not had any restart or any problems which seem to be due to the card.
I had the first Focus for about 3 weeks when all of a sudden it wouldn't connect to any cellular data. No EDGE or 3G. It would connect to WiFi and I could still make/receive calls and texts. But no internet or MMS. So I chatted with AT&T. End result: restore phone. I restored the phone WITH the same SD card in it and it worked fine...until the next day. Same problem, lost all cellular data connections. So then I chatted with Samsung. They suggested it was due to some 3rd party apps I installed (which I though was BS). So I ended up going into the AT&T store and they gave me a new one.
So I've had the 2nd Focus for about a week now and everything was working perfectly fine (with the same SD card in it). But about an hour ago, I lost all cellular data AGAIN! Restarted, toggled data connection off then on again, but still won't connect.
Could this problem really be caused by the SD card (as AT&T said?) I just don't see how an SD card can mess up cellular data. I know it does cause performance problems for some people, but cutting off data?

I guess nobody else is having this problem?
I went ahead and restored my phone again since I couldn't live without 3G connection. Still don't understand what's causing the problem though.

Obviously, you've tried removing the SD card? AT&T and M$ have yet to announce any compatible cards, officially. People have reported issues with the cards up to several days after installing them.

When I remove the SD card without restoring it just reverts back to a new install (since it can't see some of the data on the card I'm guessing) and the 3G works. I put the SD card back in and all my data is back but the 3G or any cellular data connection is gone again.
After restoring it this last time, I get 3G back (as usual) with the SD card still installed and have had 3G since I restored it.
It just seems like I'm the only person having problems with my cellular connection and the SD card, and I don't understand how the SD card can affect that. I understand loss of data or performance issues but not loss of 3G...
And as far as when I usually lose 3G, I have had info saved on the SD card for days before. Each time I've restored with the SD card in I sync all my music back to it and it definitely rolls over to the SD card. I haven't put anything on it this time to see if it will lose connection within a week like it's done before.

Yeah, it's tough to imagine a link between the SD card and the data connection, but, clearly there is. It may be in the manner that WP7 addresses the memory. It treats it as one large drive and, perhaps, after the hard reset some of the system data that deals with the data connection gets written onto the card?
Who knows? Pretty strange. It'll be interesting to see what happens now.

Thought it was time for an update on the situation...
It happened again and I had to restore the phone 1 more time a week or less after my last post. I did leave the SD card in as I normally do. The only difference was I didn't put ALL my music when I synced it (all my music adds up to well over 8GB). Instead I only put a little to where the total space taken was far less than 8GB. As I kept installing apps, taking pics/vids, blah blah blah it is now at the 8GB mark. There is a little noticeable lag now, but nothing unbearable at all. What hasn't happened (yet) is the loss of cellular data.
I'm hoping it doesn't do it again, or the upcoming update will address some SD card issues as well as copy paste. *crosses fingers*

considering it keeps happening and the 1 mainstay is the sd card....id try it without the card.... if it runs smooth...its the card.... if it screws up its something else... just too simple not to try... from what ive read, sd cards have caused a wide variety of problems, from just reboots to the extreme of bricking phones....
you havent even mentioned what brand and class card it is... it could be one of the unstable ones... if so theres your answer...

It's a Kingston 16GB Class 4, so it's confirmed working. It does seem the SD card is the problem, but (1) I don't get how the SD card can cause cellular data failure and (2) why am I the only one that is having the problem? (at least it seems like I'm the only one having a problem with losing cellular data)

well just might be a bad card... not everything that makes the shelf is perfect...
as for the why.. like i said before , there are a variety of problems... just not restarts and losing data... ive seen locking in airplane mode...ive seen bricking...etc
like i said take it out and try it.. its the only way to be sure... if it is.. try another card format the phone... put the new card in and format it 2 times and go from there....

I don't have any card at all, but my focus also losing all data connection. It disconnects from network during switching between several cell towers. I need to reset my phone several times during my travel from home to work. It looses connection always in the same place

I'm having the same problem, the data connection works fine but there're times when it says it's connected but it can't download or upload anything, the only way to fix this is by turning off and on the phone and then the data connection works again. Not even the ON/OFF switch for data in settings fix the problem.
I also have problems with the signal in general, sometimes it loses connection to my service provider and after some seconds it finds the service again, maybe a problem with the radio?
Samsung Focus: No memory card installed, using it in Venezuela (Movistar), 3G/E data service.
I already reported this issue to the WP Support Forums, I think they're investigating the problem because I haven't had any feedback since the last time more than a week ago, here it is:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com...7/thread/b5928f07-c817-4096-9e9f-21d3088e8c2d
If somebody has this problem feel free to vote for my post to let them notice that it's not an one-person problem

Same issue
I am on Fido/Rogers in Canada and get the same problem from time to time, no SD card installed.
In my case, it happens after I lose signal for a while, like garage or no signal area...When I get a signal back, the data portion just won't connect, even though I can make and receive calls and my phone displays 3G.
Reboot takes care of it.

Just found this thread. I've been having this issue for the past two days. Have never installed an SD card in my Focus. I tried the HSUPA hack a few days ago. I thought that was the cause. So I asked for help to undo the hack.

I've only had my Focus for a couple of days.
I was experiencing a lost of data connection eariler today. I think it's to do with your location/network provider.
On my X1, I use to turn flight mode on and off to fix the problem - forcing the phone to reconnect.
Sometimes the signal is GPRS and other times 3G.

How many of you experiencing this are using the Facebook app? I was having the problem today (it started this morning) and after uninstalling the FB app (where i was noticing the problem most) and a soft reset, I'm not seeming to have the problem.

So now that I think about it, when i wasn't receiving data, the phone showed full signal, even though in my office i usually get 2 bars. After the uninstall and soft reset, im now showing the 2 bars. No idea if it was causing this, but seems a strange thing to have happen.

i do have the same problem. deactvating data connection and activating again doesnt work. You dont need to restore phone to make it work again, just go to settings -> cellular -> network selection ... remove automatic and wait till it finishes searching..select you operator or automatic again it should reset your connection settings and 3g/edge should work again.
mine is an unlocked AT&T might be a problem with the unlocking mecanism if you guys also using unlocked phones.
not sure how to solve it yet.

Never used Facebook App. Did notice when it happened today, that after I close IE I had 7 yahoo emails. I'm wondering if the limited multi-tasking carries over to data. When the phone is syncing, maybe it shuts other connections down.

No 3g after using ICS

I have been on both ICS roms for awhile recently on Texas Ice with p8, new kernel. Lost 3g, only have 2g or wifi.
Went back to MeDroid 6.1 which was rock solid--no 3g
Back to CM7 no 3g
I did the *# method/redid apn's/called tmo/did Network Operators/flashed new radio--same as I had--.12 and also tried .08
Short of passimg, not sure what to try--don't know that passimg would do anything anyway.
I have occasionally had 3g pop up then it disappears
Sons phone has 3g, so not an area issue
Anyone have and solve this or any other ideas--this is first time I have had and not been able to resolve--yet
Ken
EDIT: Oops--meant this to be in Q&A--can it be moved--

Have you tried a complete wipe? Short of that, I'm not positive. I am running MeDroid ICS and my 3g and H are running fine. I have not tried the TexasIce flavor with the new kernel since it says it's not ready to be a daily driver.

thanks
I wiped all and restored several diff roms and reflashed a fresh ICS 6.1
At a loss atm

EDIT: Oops--meant this to be in Q&A--can it be moved--

As you seen, I have had the same problem. On evervolve's ROM it was working fine for me. I just flashed it to try it, no restore. I tried several reboots with changing the carrier settings but no luck. I noticed this on the MeDroid test ROM only so far.

try to install 4ext recovery, do a full wipe in the wipe menu, you will found it in the last option by scrolling, and try cm7 or even the stock android first, if its working we will test other things

mine started on T's rom
called tmo--no luck
almost sounds like they did something--but that makes no sense
you saw all that i did--so at a loss barring passimg--that doesn't sound like a solution
got to call it a nite--maybe it will return tomorrow--yeah right--

if you thing its your provider, try another sim card from a friend

yeah 3g or 4g its only what the cellphone signal can take. sim card should be the same (now we can find micro sim card)
4ext because I know they have a good wipe, format script that wipe everything.
otherwise, it could be your sim card. I know that sim card have a life time, mine worked only one year, and burned after that, I had to bough a new one.

I use temasek's extreme wipe 3x and still do data and all else in recovery 3x--wipe should be good--redid sdcard too with sdformatter
doesn't the carrier need to change my info if i swap or get a new sim

yeah they have to link your phone number with the new sim number in their system. if the problem is the sim card.
that's why i suggest to try another sim card, try your son's one if he have a data package. putting another sim card will only temporary have his phone number and data plan and will not change any configuration of your phone

i was going to try that, but he has a sim lock code and we don't remember what it was, so some research required first
only thing that seems odd is several people have same issue and on tmo--unless they have data on other roms--

new sim seems to have done the trick--fingers crossed--
wasn't much left to be wrong after all i did to troubleshoot last nite
phone system info shows umts:3
just have pesky voicemail icon in status bar, but no voicemails and can't get rid of it-- (FIXED)
thanks for all help guys--
ken

Well, it is not solved
Had 3g all day after new sim till I got home and got on Chrome to Phone and Chrome Beta, then no more 3g, only Edge.
Mattter of fact that is the only thing different the last two days is Chrome Beta.
Hate to get another sim just to prove theory, which I don't see how Chrome can cut out my data connection.
Back to square one--

Back to Temasek's Kang for now, but 3g seems to work on road and at work albeit low signal at work. Only edge at home. Turned off router and wifi, no help.
Son's mytouch has 4g so it must be a new location issue at my house and my phone can't deal with the lower reception or something changed on my phone's reception. Not sure--
Either way it is now workable and will test for awhile and go back on ICS, no more Chrome Beta though. I am superstitious--

my n7 cant connect at 3g

Just bought an Asus nexus 7 3g 32 GB and I bought an micro sim card. I have 1gb to spend on data but I can't connect the nexus. Are there any setting I have to make to be connected? The signal bar is full and I received already some welcome message from the mobile company I signed. I connect at the internet via WiFi now and works fine but no via my data connection. Something else. Is there any way to use my n7 to make phone calls receive or send messages? I am very sorry about my English and thanks spending time to read this either you answer or no.thanks a lot. I live in Greece and I have a contract at Wind network.

Lost Mobile Data - HALP ME! (T-Mobile)

Last night I was in my basement, rocking out to some tunes on the treadmill. I noticed my signal had become very weak and the 4G/LTE icon was no longer in the notification bar. My signal is often a little weak in the basement, so I thought nothing of it and flipped on Wi-Fi. Couple hours later I had finished my workout and went upstairs. Turned off Wi-Fi and still had no data connection. I tried the phone. No mobile data. I reset network settings. No mobile data. I turned data on and off. No mobile data. I checked my wife's phone and she still has mobile data. I drove far enough away that I should've hit another T-Mobile tower but, still, no mobile data!!
I called T-Mobile. Went through every possible troubleshooting step other than a factory reset, but nothing worked. I really don't have the time for a hard reset until next week.
Anyone else have this problem or have any suggestions on how to resolve it?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Battery pull and leave the battery out for 5 minutes? Try your wife's sim card on your phone?

Same thing happened to me. In the backup and reset part of settings, there is an option to reset wireless settings. Worked for me. You will have to reenter wifi passwords and pair Bluetooth devices again though.

Didn't work. Neither did a hard reset. T-Mobile is shipping me a replacement overnight. I guess it works out because I have a nice scratch in the screen.

Sorry, but I don't buy into your mode of thought. Using the SIM card that came with the phone isn't going to magically fix mobile data.
