I know this has been discussed in other threads, but I wanted to start it here, since all other threads are bombered with "i want the htc touch weather applet"... and explanation on how to add cities.
This thread is to discuss any findings about why T-Mobile USA (and some UK) customers can never get updates via GPRS/Edge.
Almost a perfect device, but always these small annoying issues that SHOULD work, but never do.

Did you enable the "update when roaming" option ?

I wanted to open a thread about this. This is a weird problem. One thing we know is not about the ports. This is really weird but my weather has updated twice over GPRS. I never noticed when it does it. Any proffesional help is appreciated.
I think this thread needs to go somewhere else because it is something general.
I am also seeing the same issues with T-Mobile USA. I am able to load Cities when I am connected to a PC or via Wifi, but not over Edge.
Weird
I was out on vacation the whole week and the weirdest thing happened. It updated my forecast. Just once, and didn't do it since. I wonder if it's tower/location specific. And yes, I have update when roaming enabled.
I am having the same exact problem, it updates when I active snyc, but not over GPRS- and I am on Tmobile also.
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this yet? It would make this app so much better being able to receive weather updates on the go via gprs/edge. I am having the same issue on tmobile, only able to update weather via active sync or wifi.

not yet. someone please contact the pda department and ask them to investigate further, although I think they wont do anything since the htc home plug is not meant for use with tmobile usa.
I just called T-Mobile's PDA support. They ran some diagnostics and told me that everything is fine on their end.
They said that if we can browse the web then we must be able to update the weather plugin.
One thing I did notice is that if I open the following link from my PDA it gets all the information:
http://htc.accuweather.com/widget/htc/forecast-data_v3.asp?ac=TR2cra9U&locCode=NAM|US|NY|NEW%20YORK
This link is what the weather plugin uses.
My touch is from the UK and in Canada the phone always shows roaming. As such what I have found is that I need to have BOTH "auto download" AND "roaming downloads" enabled to causes the plugin to "automatically" refresh the data.
The refresh does not happen as you would think howerver ( ie, in the background ) but rather when you switch to the weather display. If the last download was older than a preset age, it will download the latest weather conditions.
With roaming downloads or auto download disabled I have to force a download (ie refresh weather data) by manually clicking on the elapse time displayed next to the city name.
Where do I configure HTC Weather to use a proxy?
This problem reminds me of the days when everyone besides T-Mo users could access Google results pages. I think the consensus was that there was some incompatibility with MTU settings. It could be that this is the case here too.
Just found a fix here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319187
Step 1 worked for me...! Weather now updating via GPRS/EDGE
EDIT: I just unistalled the HTC Home cab and only copied across the HTC Home dll and it works as well. No need to run the host software.
Are you really using T-Mobile's proxy connection for this?

Nope, blackberry plan. Shouldn't technically matter though, if you're using the proxy you could point to the guys server via pocket hosts.
Cheers,
Robbie.
I'm still not able to get this to work. I think there are 2 things going on here for those which require T-Mo's proxy. First, is the T-Mo network problem in general that you seem to have been able to get around, and secondly, forcing the app to use T-Mobile's proxy, b/c all traffic must use that to use the wap APN.
Which servers are you using to get this to work over the internet APN?
make sure your apn says: wap.voicestream.com
username:
password:
leave username and password blank
try this, it may work

So i just got my x10 today and debranded it, only problem is now it won't connect to3g, i cant use timescape, i can't register my facebook account, use play now or the market place. WHATDO I DO?
It sounds like you need to set up your APN settings for your Carrier. Try connecting through WiFi and see if you are able to register Timescape. If that works then it's a matter of finding your APN settings and entering them into the phone. Hope that works.
Perhaps someone from canada knows the rogers apn settings? Thats where i live and who my service provider is.
Also how do i edit the apn settings?
Read the manual. It tells how to manually set the APN. It is online at SE website.
Do a google search and you'll find the APN for Rogers.
If you know how to debrand, you should be able to add the APN.
well i just copied all of the settings from a certain site and still nadda, keeps giving me a connection error.
http://androidheadlines.com/2010/03...nfiguration-for-google-nexus-one-android.html
i even used the auto settings feature on the phone it's self, it gave me the same settings posted on that site.
Which firmware did you use for debranding your phone ?
the international one

those are not the correct settings. use these:

MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com
MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS Port: 80
and dont touch the others
Thanks Dude, cool id btw. Just One Question, Does this go under RogersMedia or the GoRogers one, or both?
haha thanks You wont be needing the RogersMedia and the GoRogers.. delete those two. The one I stated above is the default Rogers branded x10 APN settings.
how did you debranded?

Thanks so much you're a life saver! do you know how i can take mp3tracks and set them as ring tones?
Ringtones extended app from market
anyone having this problem stared today for my bro and i both running stock 2.2.1, and the only way to get the phone to work is to put it on 2g mode
I didn't update mine, but I have lots if experience with t-zones. I'm using a nexus one on it now.
T-mobile doesn't care what speed you get. It would either block you from connecting or you get whatever the tower can serve you. They're is no special apn for the plan. my guess is that something is going on with your signal.
internet2.voicestream
Search the forums for that phrase, you'll find the settings you need. I don't remember if it was a .com or .net.

internet2.voicestream.com works fine thanks u guys
Title says it all, mine only work every once in a blue moon.
Its the one thing that is frustrating me with their service. It has worked MAYBE Twice.
Its the APN settings. It has to be something, no pun intended, simple in them that has to be added or taken away.

Agreed, I'm trying to figure it out
Keep me posted. I have tried everything from their website to their facebook page and even from a couple of threads here on xda. It seems that its somewhat device specific. There is no true 'setting'. I just got tired of trying different things and told everyone to email me because most everyone I know has a smartphone to do that with nowadays... still would like the option though. Knowing its busted annoys.
Maybe this will help:

What's interesting is there are no MMS Protocol option in my apn settings. I am trying these and will post results anyway, though. But my experience is always different when the variables are not the same.
Edit:
Yeah, doesn't seem to be working. Just keeps sending but never finishes. This is annoying!
I have simple mobile and its working fine on my end. Sometimes receiving will lag and i wont get a picture here and there but for the most part it works. Also i only have 1 apn set but when i had my g1 i had 2(two) like the poster above said.
Im on virtous btw

Me as well. There is an unknown variable. We find it, we fix our problem.
Does borealis17 own a Vision? If not, Evofision might be the exception. I waould like two know how many G2 users are also simplemobile users. Then we can get to the bottom of this!

Donations
I will give a donation to whomever can get this mms working fully functional, this is horrendously killing my ability to receive dirty pictures from women. Will donate via paypal if solution works.
I think I figured it out. I am broke and would love a donation but the decision is yours. We were kinda in this together.
I was playing around with settings and found that if I use chap authentication... BAM!!!
Also default,supl,mms in the last line as well.
Hope this helps!

sorry let me rephrase, I called simple mobile, there customer service(which is horrible btw), told me to create two apn's, one for web and the other for mms, did you do that or do you have one apn?
What is the success rate of downloading your picture messages?
also, can you just post your APN settings?
and if it works as it should, I promise I will make a donation to you.

Have you tried changing the authentication settings as yet?
I just have one apn. The thing I noticed when I put two in is that our phones only use one at a time. There is no switch off component. we choose which settings and thatss the one it uses. I did that with the recommendation from the user who posted the settings and had a differnt set for the mms. After doing it I saw that it was useless because of the fact that you can only use one at a time.
I have sent myself photes on a number of occasions and they have worked everytime. I have noticed that it DOES NOT work on wifi. My apn settings are the default set with the authentication set to chap. That's it! Go to the apn settings and hit menu, then hit reset to default. It takes a minute or two. After, when it gets set, go to the and set chap auth. That's it.
I have tried to upload a screen shot but all the browsers and even the xda app won't let me. But that's the subject of another thread!
Hope this helps. Let me know when you have tried it.
I get them but they r almost always jacked up some how. The text won't show or the picture won't show or the pic will flash on the screen for like .01 seconds...
They is why I like email on my phone lol

I know this has been answered 100x before. But Im on the new 4.1.1 Jellybean NAND and my pic messsages wont download when I receive one.
It just says "Downloading...." so can anyone point me in the right direction?
The default APN was epc.tmobile.com
If you Google T-Mobile APN settings you will find the correct defaults for network then compare to what your phone settings are by selecting the T-Mobile APN listing on your phone and exiting the line scripts. Hope this helps good luck

Mine does the same thing even with the settings correct. Have to have mobile data on or it will not download the picture. T-Mobile says it won't pull it over wifi and it will only work on mobile data. Stupid if you ask me.
