how can I chage wifi setting? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

hello, how can i change IP, Subnet Mask, Default gateway and DNS1 in ice-cream sandwich version of android? I really need this. Please help me.

Sooo .... you're crying because you couldn't change the settings? (sorry, that icon is just stupid)
To change settings, if you are already connected then long hold on the network, modify, scroll down and tick on "advanced options" .. and there you have it.
First time connecting: tap on the network, type your password, scroll down to "advanced options", tick on it, and scroll down further, more options will appear.

Has anybody had any success with getting MMS to work with a virginmobile payasyougo Sim card
I have got normal internet browsing working but cannot get MMS to work

IP 193.30.166.1
IP Port 9201
APN goto.virginmobile.uk
Login ID user
Password Leave blank
Bearer GPRS
I have entered some of these settings into the Connection that MMS seems to be using but I dont know where to put in the
IP Port and Server URL
Can any one help
Thanks
I don't know which version of windows your using as the MMS composer is different in WM2003SE. I can tell you how I got mine working and its a 2 stage process:
Part 1
1. Create a new connection by coing to Start->Settings->Connections and tap on the Connections icon.
2. Tap on the "Advanced" tab and then tap on the "Select Networks" button.
3. Tap on the lower one of the two "New..." buttons, i.e. the one below the "My Work Network" drop down menu.
4.0 On the "General" tab, enter a name of "Virgin MMS".
4.1 On the "Modem" tab, tap on the "New..." button.
4.3 Enter a name for the connection of "Virgin MMS", select a modem type of "Cellular Line (GPRS)" and then tap on the "Next" button.
4.4 Enter an access point name of "goto.virginmobile.uk" and then tap on the "Next" key.
4.5 Enter a user name of "user", ensure that all other fields are empty and then tap on the "Finish" button.
4.6 On the "Proxy Settings" tab, ensure that the "This network connects to the Internet" is NOT ticked" and then tap on the "ok" button in the top right hand corner of the screen.
4.7 In the drop down menu for "Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using:", change this back to "My Work Network" (or whatever was in this field before you started this process).
5. You can now exit from the Settings screens as Part 1 is complete.
Part 2
1. You need to go into MMS composer.
2. In WM2003SE you need to go into the "Tools->MMS Settings" option.
3.0 On the "Preferences" tab, in the "Connect via:" option, enter/select "Virgin MMS".
3.1 On the "Servers" tab, tap on the "New" button.
3.2 Enter a "Server name:" of "Picture Message"
3.3 Enter a "Gateway:" of "193.30.166.1".
3.4 Enter a "Port number:" of "9201". Don't worry if you don't have a "Port number:" field as the system will default to this anyway.
3.5 Enter a "Server address" of "http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002" and then tap on the "OK" button.
3.6 Tap on the "ok" button in the top right hand corner of the screen.
That's the end of the two stages and you should now be able to send picture and video messages (I've tried both).
Two things to be aware of:
1. The send/receive does seem to take ages.
2. Don't try to send pictures which aren't JPG or BMP as they won't go and you end up thinking that there's a problem with your config. I speak from experience here.
GPRS settings on Vorgin?
Slightly Off topic but I'm trying to Use my xda 1 with virgin and am trying to get the GPRS set up and am struggling, is it essentially the same settings as these?
Many thanks
Nate :?:
The GPRS setting for internet access only involves 1 stage in order to set it up. It's almost exactly the same as the first part of MMS:
1. Create a new connection by going to Start->Settings->Connections and tap on the Connections icon.
2. Tap on the "Advanced" tab and then tap on the "Select Networks" button.
3. Tap on the upper one of the two "New..." buttons, i.e. the one usually below the "My ISP" drop down menu.
4.0 On the "General" tab, enter a name of "Virgin GPRS".
4.1 On the "Modem" tab, tap on the "New..." button.
4.3 Enter a name for the connection of "Virgin GPRS", select a modem type of "Cellular Line (GPRS)" and then tap on the "Next" button.
4.4 Enter an access point name of "goto.virginmobile.uk" and then tap on the "Next" key.
4.5 Enter a user name of "user", ensure that all other fields are empty and then tap on the "Finish" button.
4.6 On the "Proxy Settings" tab, ensure that the "This network connects to the Internet" is ticked and then tap on the "ok" button in the top right hand corner of the screen.
4.7 In the drop down menu for "Programs that automatically connect to Internet should connect using:", ensure that the "Virgin GPRS" entry is displayed.
5. You can now exit from the Settings screens as your connection set up is now complete. You shouldn't have to do any other config work to use the internet.
Ensure that when you try this connection that you don't have your XDA docked in its cradle or you won't be connecting via GPRS.
Happy surfing.
Thanks mate, thats done it. I have tried almost exactly that and didn't get it quiteright.
Appreciate the help.
Virgin MMS
Have entered this setup info into xda2 But it still wont connect and returns the following message
Dialed:gotovirginmobile.uk
Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To
check your connection settings and change
them if needed, tap Settings. If the
problem continues, reset your mobile device
according to your manufactures documentaion
and try again
Help
Thanks
If the above text is exactly what appears on your screen then your problem is easily fixed. It looks like your missing a full stop, i.e. "gotovirginmobile.uk" should be "goto.virginmobile.uk". This is the value you entered in step 4.4 of Part 1.
I tried removing the full stop on my M1000 and I got exactly the same error reported so this should hopefully sort the problem.
Virgin MMS
Sorry my mistake I had put goto.virginmobile.uk in at step 4.4
but omitted it from my previous post
Should the connection for MMS use the same one that internet explorer uses, that one uses one called MOBILE WEB GPRS that appears to have the same setup. Browsing on the internet works OK

Qtek 9100 - Help with Wireless

Hey guys...
Let me begin by thanking everybody that makes XDA developers the tremendous resource that it is.. It has saved my device on more than one occasion..
Now my problem is that I cant connect on to my University's Wireless config..
They provide us with an Aegis Client which is supposed to work on a PPC 2002/WM 2003 but doesnt work on my Qtek 9100's WM 5.0
I know odyssey client could be configured too... but I really dont want to spend 50 dollars on it (which im not sure works in the first place)
Below are the instructions provided by my Uni.
Configuring Aegis:
Ensure that wireless is enabled.
Tap on the Aegis icon in the lower right corner.
Tap on Client and then Configure.
Add a new profile. Give it any name, such as osuwireless.
In the identity field, type anonymous.
In authentication type, select PEAP.
Under Tunneled authentication:
In the Identity field, type your OSUWireless ID
In the password field type your OSUWireless PIN.
In the Protocol field, select MSCHAPv2.
Select the Server tab:
Uncheck Do not validate server certificate.
Select Equifax Secure Certificate Authority under "Certificate Server". If this is not an option, select Any trusted CA.
In the "Server name must be" box, type ohio-state.edu and select Must contain domain name.
Press OK.
Configuring the wireless network:
Tap on the Wireless Network Utility.
Select Configure from the drop-down menu.
Tap on the osuwireless network to select and choose Move to Configured.
Tap on osuwireless in the configured Networks section and choose Properties
Select the Profile Info tab.
Select osuwirless from the "Authentication profile" pull down menu.
Select the WEP MGMT tab.
Check the Provide encryption key dynamically checkbox.
Select the WPA Settings tab:
WPA Mode = WPA 802.1x
Encryption = TKIP
Tap OK.
Tap OK.
Close the Aegis Client screen.
Your device is ready to use the network.
If you guys can give me another software that could possibly do the same on WM 5.0 please let me know.. Any response would be appreciated..
Thanks..

Internet settings

Okay, so I've shagged my internet settings completely. I now can't connect to the internet at all, despite having a good strength 3G connection.
Could someone help me restore my internet settings? I know it's a bit of a vague question, but I don't know where the problem lies.
I've already tried the "automatically configure connection", and it unfortunately didn't help (after disconnect/reconnect and also after a reset).
Please help me - I feel naked without the internet in my pocket! lol
Cheers,
John.
Original post:
Could someone do me a favour?
I need someone with a Touch HD, from Orange (in the UK), to go to the following screen...
Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks
...and tell me what "programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using".
I'd really appreciate it, as I believe mine was set to something that now doesn't work, but one of the others does!!!
Thanks in advance,
John.
Mine is set to Orange Internet
Post deleted, because I've made things worse
To get the same settings as mine, try the following:
Tap Start
Tap Settings
Tap the Connections tab
Tap Connections
Tap the Advanced tab
Tap Select Networks
In the first drop down-box select Orange Internet
Tap Edit (if Orange Internet isn't listed tap new)
Select Orange Internet
Tap Edit
Data settings
Enter Orange Internet for the name
Select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) from the modem list
Tap Next
Enter orangeinternet in the access point name
Tap Next
Leave the 'Username', 'Password' and 'Domain' blank
Tap Finish
Tap the Proxy Settings tab
Tick 'This network connects to the Internet'
Un-tick 'This network uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet'
Tap ok three times
Tap X
Hope that helps,
JB
Very much appreciated John Boy, but that's exactly what I had. There must have been something wrong elsewhere.
I use the past-tense, as I've just flashed my phone with the newest version of wm6.5 (I favour miri as my custom rom), and that's solved all my problems.
I pretty much expected that I'd need to hard reset to solve this problem, but it'll probably help others in future, having that list of settings and info.
Thanks again mate - much appreciated.
John.

[Q] who to change server & port ???

hi all
in i have 2.2 official rom on my streak (rooted).
i can't connect to the internet in some places like my university because i should change the "
SERVER & THE PORT " to connect through that kind of wireless ... i tried many time and i didn't find how ... please can anyone help me ... many of my friends owns I-phones and Samsungs and they can do it ... i can't ... they always making laugh of me and of my lovely streak
please help me
What do you mean by server and port?
Do you mean VPN or just a regular secured WIFI that requires a static IP?
In order to set-up a static IP, follow the below steps:
1. go to the main menu
2. press the settings button
3. choose "Wireless & networks"6.
4. choose "Wi-Fi Settings"
5. press the settings button
6. choose "Advanced" option from the settings menu
7. tick "Use static IP"
8. set your IP settings
In order to set-up a VPN connection, follow the below steps:
1. go to the main menu
2. press the settings button
3. choose "Wireless & networks"
4. choose "VPN settings"
5. choose the correct "ADD ..." button accordingly to your type of VPN
6. enter your VPN information
I've never set up a VPN on the Dell Streak before, but if it requires a port, usually you could write the port as follows:
[ADDRESS]:[PORT]
ex. 192.168.1.100:21
192.168.1.100 is the [ADDRESS] and 21 is the [PORT]
thanks i'll try that in the university tomorrow ... and i'll tell u ... thanks again

Static IP on Nexus Q

Has anyone figured out how to set a static IP on the Nexus Q? I have not unlocked my Q yet, but I am planning on doing so since my network only supports static IPs. Has anyone taken a crack at it yet or will I be blazing a trail here?
It's very easy:
If you cannot connect to your wifi network automatically you need to do it manually, if you can do automatically, just jump these steps:
1. go to system settings
2. click on wifi
3. click on add network
4. enter your network ssid
5. choose your security
6. enter your password for you network
7. click save
After that you network is set you need to long press (long mouse click) on the network name and it will show you 2 options: "Forget network" and "Modify network"
1. Click "Modify network", roll the screen a little
2. Mark the "Show advanced options" checkbox, roll more
3. Change the IP settings to "Static" and do your show
4. Click save and have fun.
Cheers!
