Mobile internet doesn't work with apps - Nexus One General

Help!
My Edge internet mobile apn works with internet browsers but not with apps like beautiful weather,any IM app or maps!
And yes I am using the manual APN settings from the Network website

Sounds like this might be just a WAP APN?

Bingo. Had something like that connecting Nexus to one of our carriers, turned out to be APN that doesn't support anything but the browser. Changed to "smartphone" APN, everything started working.

T-Zones settings GPRS

Hi all I couldn't find this anywhere so I thought I would post it as it worked on my dash with WM6.1
I have Tzones and I setup the APN as epc.tmobile.com and the proxy as 216.155.165.50:8080 and the internet connects like it should. So if you already have the 5.99 Tzones (as you can't get it anymore) then this is a real cheap way for you to surf the web.
This works for me with Skyfire and IE
Peace!

Thanks, I wanted to tether as well.. for some reason I can't. Is there anything i need to change in the settings? thanks
Hi,
This did not work for me, and not sure why. This is my first smartphone (unlocked Palm Treo 750 running winmoble5). Everything works except T-zones. I'm able to get a connection using the APN wap.voicestream.com. I just get errors display the page. On my IE options settings, I have no connections tab as someone said should be use in a previous post.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

You don't need a proxy. I run all the time without one using open dns dns servers. I use epc.tmobile.com.

Sprint Touch (To cricket then android)

I have a chance to get a touch for 40$ which is a good deal right?
Also can I flash it to cricket and internet and all will work and after I flash it I could put android on it correct?
I could easily find out how to flash to cricket by reading but am confused by the android part isnt it flashing a new rom so I couldnt connect to cricket? Thanks will be back tonight to reply so leave as many suggestions as possible
Thank You all
no flashed rom needed for android
after you have flashed you touch to what ever rom works for you. there will no need to flash it for android because android as it is will not replace windows. andriod runs off of the sd card. just read forum for android on the touch it should any question you have.
What are the downfalls to android?

with Android running off the MicroSD, texting works only partially (Sprint/Verizon texts give "bad SMS encoding" errors) and web not at all due to Cricket's dumb proxy settings
this is the case with the XV6800, and i am sure the Touch will have the same dilemma

I got it working by editing the default APN and setting up the proxy that way.

Can you make calls or not?
If you can't call or recv is your ESN in the cricket system.
Did this just start happening?
If you can not make calls but can recv calls go to EPST setting/CDMA setting and change the following..
EVRC enable = enable
and the three below it change to EVRC
make sure you have cricket PRL
HOME SID/NID are correct
ESN matches cricket system
MDN/MIN are correct
Everything works fine now, call and text. However mobile web is still a no go. In the new Ion build there is no APN settings program, just APN under settings for the android. When I add my user name and password to my current APN it still wont log on.

Web works on mine. reset your modem settings using the modem icon. You may have to dl a new modem app though.
The APN settings should be the same as the settings you used on the window mobile settings, wap.mycricket.com port 8080 etc etc.
How do you change the modem settings? Ive entered all the information in APN like user name,password, por,t proxy, is there anything else you said..... meaning theres more?

So what are the correct APN setting to make these cupcake builds work on Cricket???
actually at this time i have no idea if it works or not as they removed the ppp.username ppp.password from teh default.txt and from then on it seemed to have killed the data connection.
All i did was go into the wireless networks settings, or APN settings in wireless settings and modify teh defulat. I changed all the settings that you would in WinMo and left the rest as they were and it all worked. Currently trying to download a new system image file so I can test it.
proxy question
hi i have htc vogue on cricket and im using donut 1.6 flashable rom and i have data working with no problems. But only in browser not through any of the apps or activate my google account. i have been reading and they say its because of cricket port wont let us reach out. also there has been mention of buying cricket 15 html plan but is there a proxy bypass or workaround out there thank you

The HTML data plan is a good work around but is not a 100% sure fix because in different markets it also works through the Simple IP. There are other work arounds like the broadband hack. But that requires a broadband number.
I know this is a bit old but has anything changed here to make Android market/data work on cricket data plan? I am still confused as to what settings in android to make (followed all of whitey's instructions for cricket)

unable to use Windows live + email on mobile network

I got HD2 last week and I can connect to everything(HTC Sense weather etc) online via mobile network except checking my email and MSN Messenger. Those two only work then the phone in on wifi.
I have a 10 GB data plan as part of my subscription so I should be able to use those. Have I done a setup error? Or could it be my mobile provider blocking usage of those two services?
I have looked at my mobil providers homepage and it says nothing about those two service being blocked.
Any thoughts?
In your internet settings unselect "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet". I had the same problem on T Mobile UK and now everything works.
Yes, Sometimes after soft reset... But fix it is easy.
if unselect this proxyserver setting isn't something to do with security by the mobile provider?

no, the proxy just holds copies of web pages soo that you don't connect to the website every time. there is no difference by not using the proxy

I am having this same problem, but i have checked the proxy settings and the proxy is not configured.
any other ideas what it could be?
PS, I'm on vodafone if it makes any difference.
Thanks
I guess that your data plan covers only Internet browsing (port 80 and 443), email is on port 110 (in) and 25 (out) and Messenger on still another port, they must be blocked as you guessed in your first post. Orange implemented the same kind of restriction in France with its so called "Internet max" option, what a joke!

I have had this problem for 5 days now. I have tried different roms, hard resets and the proxy connection but it will not let me sign into msn or hotmail. Marketplace works fine though. I am also on vodafone but I tried to connect via a wifi hotspot and it still failed.
The only thing I can think of is that I recently deleted all of my msn contacts via outlook on my computer. I think that this has somehow messed up my profile and so the phone won't connect.
There is a help section on the live app which redirects you to a webpage. You fill in some details about your phone, operator, problem etc but the 'submit' button wouldn't work for me, so I didn't get anywhere.

Lost T-Mobile UK data settings HTC HD2

Hi can anyone help. Just put 1.66 ROM into my HD2 all is well apart from no internet connection available. Does anyone have the correct setings for T-Mobile UK internet and data use? Thought this would be a new dawn for my phone now I can't even check emails or get weather updates. I'm gutted. HELP!!!
remove your SIM/SD card and do a hard reset. turn it on with them still removed and set it up. put your SIM card in a it should ask you to choose your provider and install the correct settings. if not, you'll have to get T-Mobile to SMS them to you
settings menu all settings connections connection setup
does that work?
also, in start menu there is usually an icon your sim card puts there to get settings.
access point: general.t-mobile.uk
username: user
password: pass
thats contract settings for t-mobile.

Had the same problem,
Try
Start--->menu---> full menu ---->settings----> connections---->connection setup.
Auto settings puts in a proxy server for t-mobileUK (well mine does sometimes). No idea why!
Remove the check to use proxy and all OK.

That means that you are not trying to access sites or functions that dislike the proxy being enabled. When it is enabled the t-mobile proxy dictates what you can and cannot access. Try an ftp transfer with the proxy on!
ahhh.
my browsing is limited. same few sites.

Any way to fully enable wap for applications on x10??

Hey everyone!
i was just wondering if there is any way to enable wap for applications in x10?
we can only use the main browser through wap...!
we can't use timescape or facebook or ebuddy or marketplace, track id or any other application.
any solution for this?
Thanks
By WAP you mean GPRS connection right? I'm using it for everything except Youtube when WiFi off
Have you set the GPRS setting? Or just do auto settings under mobile network settings?
I read on an other forum that there were people who had the same problem.
As I like to buy the x10, I'm really curious what might cause this. Unfortunally I haven't got a reaction on my question.
So I you find a solution, can you post it here?
Thx

no, by wap i mean wap. Gprs is a complete different thing. In my country GPRS service cost 25$ for 250mb only.
wap is already unlimited for 5$ only. And i was using wap connection on my iphone (browser, opera mini, push/email, ebuddy, marketplace/itunes).
Now i cant use WAP with any of these applications! only the default browser is enabled. any solution ? :s
GPRS is a connection type, like WCDMA or CSM.
WAP is more like HTML, a data type. The default android browser can't display WAP formatted pages.
Do you mean dial up internet?
Wap is a gprs connection that uses a proxy server with a port: 80 or 8080
it is clear now ?

If you are with Rogers would you mind giving me a hand how to set it up for WAP on the default browser? Just a list of the settings will do. I tried different APN settings from various online sources and the settings from my old W810 but I couldn't even get browsing to work! I tried setting Opera Mini to use HTTP instead and of course nothing works. The unlimited browsing only plan I have is simply a waste at the moment. Thanks!
EDIT: after trying a few things I was able to get the default browser working... but no, the other apps don't work with WAP... not even if I set Opera Mini to use HTTP.
ok, i was having this problem too and i found a way around it.
you have to go to your APNs and edit the APN you are using.
go to the port tag (should be labeled as 80) and erase it making it blank.
save>restart your phone, everything should work fine.

Tried this and only the default browser works...
I have experienced the same issues as described above,
if the default browser is working correctly however stand alone apps fail it may be the APN used has restrictions disabling the use of non-browser data traffic, commonly networks will have a minimum of 3 APNs, e.g WAP, MMS, and Internet.
On this basis I would recommend you ask you provider for the details of thier internet APN (commonly used when using your phone as a modem or email account access) and test accordingly.. if everything works this would confirm restrictions are in place, and a requirement to use an unrestricted APN for full functionality.
As noted different APNs may have differnt charging structures, hence the limitations sometimes when using wap apn access.

The port for my APN (Japanese version) was left blank by default, but I couldn't access my hosted email and website on the X10. Every other website and email worked fine. When I added 80 as the port, I can now access my hosted email and website without a problem.
I'm happy that this seems to have fixed it, but does anybody know why setting the port to 80 worked for me but gave problems for others?
had simualr problem ... calt my x1 support they said that i need to turn on roaming and then it workt .. this is becouse i use tele2 and they dont have there own network they only rent it from netcom so you need to turn on roaming that can be found in settings >wirreles network>mobile network (can have aother name ..my mobile is in norwegiang .. )try that,
