Hey, guys, I'm trying to connect to the internet through CSD data bearer. Using Omnia, WM 6.1. I input all the needed settings provided by the operator, but it seems that the phone can't even call the data number (in my case it is 1000). I tried with two GSM service operators - Globul and Vivacom, but to no avail. I wrote an e-mail to the Globul's support regarding this issue and they said that they were also unable to connect to CSD using the Omnia. So I think this is an issue with Windows Mobile itself. Maybe some hidden settings or registry tampering is required? I hope you guys are qualified enough to give me some feedback on this problem. Thanks!
Here is a video of what happens (ot more accurately - what doesn't happen):

I 'm experimenting problems to setup a GPRS connection with my local cellualr provider, because it seems that here in MEXICO, you need to configure +52 55 *99# intead of +0..... (tmobile default configuration) I own a TMOBILE XDA PW10B1 ROM: 3.08.10 ENG, Radio Version: 6.02
Can anybody help me to do this configuration?
Sounds like your GPRS operator needs to go on a course
A GPRS handset doesn't actually dial a number. The *99# is used as a code to tell the phone to connect to GPRS it is not sent to the network.
There are actually 3 ways for a GPRS phone to connect to a GPRS network
ATD*99# (or ATD*99***1# on some handsets)
AT+CGACT=1
AT+CGDATA=1
The last two don't work in practice as once you are connected you need a PPP link to do anything useful.
You do need to tell the phone what Access Point you wish to connect to (the bit after the +0~ on the display, which can be removed by tweaking the Dialing Locations section). This is done by the AT+CGDCONT command, but as all AT commands are 'hidden' by Pocket PC the Connection Manager sets this before it connects.
The customer care person in Mexico simply doesn't understand how GPRS works. Unfortunatly few customer care staff do elsewhere in the world either.
Thanks for your replay.
how can I tweak the Dialing Locations section?
I'm new in this kind of tech.
Start\Settings\Connections\Connections\Dialing Locations\Dialing Patterns
Replace everything (or just International Calls) with g.
Mind you it will make no diference to the GPRS operation of the device, only the display of the "dial string" in the message window.
I works!!!! very well. It fells a litte bit slow, but it works... Thanks.
Is that possible to somehow see what AT commands have been used by the connection manager/pocketpc?
I have GPRS working on pocketpc, but I couldn't get it working using AT commands magic and with pppd (under linux, not on the XDA, but the same SIM/network.).
Hi,
I have the "OPEN" inet settings from this thread working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280566&page=2
I was wondering if anyone can check out their "factory" X01HT and see if there are different settings. My connection seems slow. HSDPA is suppose to be working right? I have yet to see a 3G signal. I only get a U so I dont know if that has anything to do with it.
BTW I have the latest JASJAM ROM (1.06 Bootloader).
I actually went to Softbank to see if they could get me the settings here on Okinawa but they never got an answer. Said they would call.
Thanks for any help.

I will try today to open my X01HT and see if I have same issues as you.
Question, is there a way to buy/get Window CE 5.0 English OS and install it on X01HT?
unfortunately, it is not any setting... softbank has started HSDPA connection services ONLY within the 23 wards of tokyo and some parts of "seirei ****ei toshi" (special cities like yokohama-shi or saitama-shi.)
okinawa is not yet in the coverage of the service.... that's why your x01ht is only as fast as normal 3G...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
WM5.0 OS is not sold.
however, you can change the OS by burning another ROM. to do it on x01ht, you need to unlock the device first. then, choose any WWE ROM you like, and burn it.
all the necessary info is already in wiki. you'd better read it.
Thank You
Thank You qtotter, well I was working with Softbank tech services about "no internet" and they told me to hard reset the device. They said my internet connection should be the 3rd connection under "START > Settings > Connections (TAB) > Connections"
So that lead me to believe there are connection settings. Seeing as how I can not read Kanji / Katakana can you tell when Okinawa will get the HSDPA service?
the reason why they told you to perform hard reset was the original softbank rom will restore the connection setting by hard reset. you have burnt another rom, and this does not work with your case.
secondly, they will not tell you the setting (password). if you delete the connection setting or change the password of the connection by mistake, they would advise you to perform hard reset.
currently, softbank does not even disclose the precise coverage of HSDPA. i have not read any articles about their coverage expansion plan yet.
Hi All
I've got a Tytn provided by Vodafone Spain. I'll be moving to the Uk and I'll have company phone (BT). I thought about unlocking the phone using the Internet Service (20 pounds), but after that, would it be possible to change the GPRS config in order to get it working properly (3G, MMS, etc)?. How do I do that?
Thanks for your help!
Yes, it will be possible. Just search for the right settings for your new operator after unlocking the phone. Probably you can find a cab file with the settings.
Got my HTC TyTN(Hermes-Titan) in China and was using it with great satisfaction for a couple of months. With great satisfaction when landed in Germany, I could still automatically get all my emails and cals without making any adjustment using GPRS and UMTS. Once landed in Spain with strong disapointment and then I have not been able to connect anymore in any of the networks available. Aparently I could not swith from the UMTS2100 to GSM1900(which is used in Spain). The HTC Technical support team there proposed to change the mother board ... may some one know an other way to solve the problem? May an update of ROM work?
Help, Help with China Mobile GPRS settings/Setup
Hi,
I have the Hermes (Softbank Hermes 200 bought in HK with latest QTek South Africa ROM on it - for WWE usage) but I can't seem to figure how to connect to local GPRS to use internet or get email, etc.
It's driving me nuts! I've tried many combos And I'm pretty computer literate too.
Evidently I have all the information I need, maybe, but I can't seem to get the settings right. I've scoured the web and read a couple of moderately useful (but not 100% applicable) posts on outlining the process but I still can't make it happen.
Is there anyone who has successfully set up their Hermes with the China Mobile GPRS settings? Please pass on your knowledge to me.
For background, I have a local Shanghai SIM chip with GPRS function enabled by the central China Mobile authorities, whoever they may be. I'm on a pay-as-you-go service.
The settings (as sent to me from China mobile) are supposed to be:
APN: cmwap
IP: 010.000.000.172
Port: 9201
Domain(?): http://wap.monternet.com
They said no PW or user needed, but some sites list "WAP" for both.
I understand there are also dial-up options but I've had no success either.
The closest I've come is to make the network appear to connect (a timer counts connection time) but when I try to pull up a webpage it doesn't load and says the connect was lost.
I also don't know which PAP/CHAP setting to use and my phone does not have a convenient "Network Wizard" app.
Thanks in advance for your kindness. And thank you to the moderators for this great site. I've learned a wealth of information about my phone and even upgraded the ROM.

Hi All,
I'm new to smart phones, and I'm pushing my comfort zone a little here, so please bear with me!
I've just got a new XDA Orbit 2 on O2 in the UK (which I believe is virtually the same as the Polaris, with a bit of customisation by O2) and I'm trying to get VOIP working over wifi (I have no interest in using it over 3G - this is a banned activity by the network provider).
I've tried to follow instructions on this forum, but seem to have got stuck.
I've downloaded and installed WM6VoIP.CAB and SetupVoIP_V0.3.CAB, and after some playing I think I've managed to get the right settings into SetupVoIP - it now says on the Today screen "Internet Calling: Available".
However, when I try to make a call, it still says service provider is O2, and calls are being routed over their network - even though I've got it set to use the internet "Whenever available" (I've even tried turning off the "phone" so that the only option is to route calls over the internet, but it didn't - it was just unable to make the call).
Has anyone sucessfully got VoIP working on this version of the phone? If so could you please help me - it would be really useful if I could use VoIP from home where I've got WiFi!!!!
I have a VoIP account with voiptalk.org
Many thanks for your help
Charlie
same here...
bump!
Please help someone!!!
If it says Internet Calling: Available. Tap it and it will change to Internet Calling: Selected. Then calls will be routed through your WiFi
Is there no SIP client that brings VOIP to Windows Mobile?
Try Agephone Mobile 2. Best VOIP software I've tried to date.
