Has anyone had any difficulty with UK O2 GPRS (mobile web) on Xda IIs recently, at least half a dozen of my users seem 2 have lost WWW access this week (access to POP3 accounts still working).
I'm out of the office & mine is working fine so it's difficult to trouble-shoot!

Hi guys new here found this site after upgrading on O2 from an aging Sony Ericsson P900 to my first ever WM5 device. £50 on £25 12 month contract
So far I think its absolutely great no probs what so ever
Just one thing, Ive been trying to get it to access the O2 Active Wap site but it always ends up going to the html version (pda.o2.co.uk), Ive tried looking around googling for answers some say pocket IE doesnt do wap and some say it does if you set it up properly.
This is where the Connection tab comes into it, Ive read to go to Settings>Connections>Connections> Manage exsiting connections and in there set up the proxy but all I see are two tabs; Tasks and Advance........no Proxy settings tab to be seen??
Any advice, Thanks in advance
First question has to be... why bother with wap when you have access to www?
PIE does support wap, you just need to use wsp://xxxxx instead of http://xxxxx
But, I'm pretty sure none of the WM5 Xda's are supported by the O2 active wap site. So even if you can get on there you won't be able to do the things you can on a standard phone, like download ringtones etc.
The preconfigured O2 setting should be fine for accessing wap if you really want to (the connection is only there to use MMS). You don't need to change the proxy settings.
Thanks for the reply, I managed to discover how to get the proxy setting up, I had to change the select network to connect to internet using My Work rather than My ISP before it would come up in the Tasks tab
Just wanted to try to get the wap version of the site for the content, sport, tfl tube news, competitions etc. Tried wsp:// still comes up with the crappy pda version with all the ITN crap.
I would use the full http versions on GPRS if O2 had a decent enough data package, Im still getting over the fact its no longer free after 3 yrs of non charging
Anyone know how to get it to say emulate a non pda phone?
Hi guys,
Got my Artemis (in the form of an XDA Orbit, UK) a few weeks ago. Everything was fine until a few days ago. These are my possible Internet connections:
1) ActiveSync
2) WLAN
3) GPRS
(and I'd use them in that order too).
However, everything stopped working - even when #1 or #2 were connected, it'd always try to bring a GPRS session up when I tried accessing something requiring an Internet connection (eg. QuickGPS, IE), and not provide a data connection either.
Has anyone else had a similar problem or know what the cause is? I've been through all the screens/etc, but can't find anything that would explain the problem.
TIA,
G
Does anybody tryed VPN client for HTC3300, supporting Windows Mobile 5.0 and Nortel Contivity switch?
I have tried several solutions, incl. Bluefire VPN, AnthaVPN, ApaniVPN, NCP client - but could not get satisfactory result - some of them doesn't work at all, some of them couldn't establish connection or run on Windows Mobile 2003
Some experience with Bluefire VPN:
I have installed trial, it works on WiFi connection, but doesn't work on cellular (GSM/GPRS). An error -56 appears (no physical connection is present) although device connects to GPRS successfully and I could browse Internet
Could anybody advice?

My experience
I had to set up such a connection to my company VPN. Ok, I wasn't working on HTC p3300 but I was in the same condition for days. At last, I discovered that the provider was masking off the VPN frames. I had to buy another service and I had to connect to another "access point". (I don't remember how it is called exactly in GPRS). From then on I could either navigate internet or use vpn, but they are mutually exclusive for the provider policy. "we did it for security purposes..." they said. The problem is that one technician on 100 knows it. The compant was Vodafone ITALY. So I suggest you have a check with your provider. Maybe there's nothing wrong in your configuration.
Bluefire VPN is currently not compatible with WM5 AKU3. It works on devices wiht AKU2 and below. This has something to do with the way AKU3 names the GPRS data connection. It is different than previous versions.
Bluefire is aware of the issue and said they will have this corrected in the next release, due anytime now. I am running a pre-release build that the sent me and can confirm that it works with GPRS. The problem is this build breaks wifi on the device.
Apologies if this has been asked before but I couldn't find an answer.
Background:
I originally bought a MDA Compact III (HTC P3300) from T-mobile. Downloaded, installed and registered Pocket MSN and am able to log into MSN messenger and retrieve Hotmail mail.
Got fed up with GPRS and decided to buy a P3600 (from HTC) mainly cos of 3G and WiFi. I have an unlimited data plan.
Problem:
I inserted my SIM card into the P3600 (downloaded and installled Pocket MSN - not registered as i have paid for it already) and now I'm unable to log into Pocket MSN.
I get the following error when trying to log into MSN Messenger or do a send/recieve from my Hotmail account.
"Temporary conditions currently prevent connecting to the Pocket MSN service"
and then get the following message:
"Logon to MSN Messenger Service failed because the service is not responding. Please try later."
But when I put the SIM card back into the MDA Compact III it all works fine.
Spoke to t-mobile and they say it must be a setting on the phone thats preventing me from logging in, and suggest that I speak to HTC.
Spoke to HTC and they say it must be a problem with my service provider
I'm inclined to believe t-mobile as it does work on the MDA Compact III.
I've tried other apps such as IM+ and recieve similiar connection error messages. But connecting over Wifi it all works fine
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
How are you logging in to pocket MSN? The only way I could log on to it was connecting to my laptop through activesync and using my cable internet connected to it.
are you connecting through GPRS/EDGE
you mention that you can connect through wifi but not directly (Iassume by GPRS/Edge/3g
if you've bought the handset sim free then you will need to add these settings into the handset. T-Mob would be able to supply you with these details to add in your connection settings and that should resolve the problem.
