I think I have changed some settings which I shouldn’t have. I can still connect to the internet using gprs but I have lost connectivity to msn messenger. I have also installed msn mobile and I can not get my hotmail account to work.
Any ideas with the settings as I have long deleted the original ones (work and internet) im thinking that I should put these back on.
Oh and I can not delete the new connections I have made
i have now deleted all connections apart from 2. im unable to delete these so im thinking that these were originally "work" and "the internet" when i have tried to change the names back to the internet and work i get an error message” a connection already has this name". but work or the internet are no where to be found
maybe you could try a full connections reset, by going into the o2active interface, then on the tools icon under the news icon, click that and tap connections, this should bring you to the setup screen, select what you would select, and then try that, if this problem sstarted after installing msn mobile, uninstall it and see if that helps, also do you have the latest messenger update from microsoft website?
it seems that the problem is with my pay and go sim. although i can browse the web it doesn't like 3rd party programs.
i have just put my contract sim in and it works a treat.
so if anyone knows a fix for a pay and go sim that would be great.
I had the same problem today. It seems there was a problem somewhere. All is working now. We will see what happens tomorrow.

Does this BBBrowser supposedly use the same BB connection I set up for the mail ? or would I be using gprs connection for that? Not that it matters right now, because after fresh install (and push email setup perfectly), I clicked IEExlore icon and got this popup" There is a fault in the Blackberry Browser configuration. Blackberry will try to correct the browser configuration and restart your device. Click OK to start". Device SR, go to IE icon, click, and I get new message "The Blackberry Browser could not be repaired. please contact your System Administrator". Any suggestions for repair to get this browser going ? I had installed BBconnect on my storage card because it seems that it required 10MB (never seen a program that large meant for PPC). Just wondering if there is a default area for changing browsers?
PS Just found the Internet browser Icon in folder , but after clicking that, still get message that Browser could not be repaired
New News: Just removed BBConnect, and put into Main Memory, and got BBBrowser working,,and is using the BB connection instead of GPRS to surf..therefore I assume that surfing is compressed. Still would like to know if most people have loaded this app on their storage cards, and why mine had to be loaded to main.
I have now had my TP2 for nearly a week and I am generally very pleased. However, there are a couple of problems that may be me or may be the phone that I have not in my ignorance been able to resolve.
Firstly with the calendar, if I enter a new appointment with specific times it shows on the home page and in the month and day display. If I make it an all day appointment of a reoccurring appointment it is not displayed and I have to disable Touchflo to get into the full calendar to find the appointment. This means the only way I am able to see appointments entered is if each is entered daily with specific times. Pretty useless if I have weekly appointments for the year (I would have to enter individually 52 times) or all day appointments / reminders.
Secondly, the You Tube application comes up with an “Unable to find a network” error message when ever I try to run it. I have no trouble with PIE, Opera, e-mail etc, only you Tube. (If I go to You Tube in PIE or Opera all is fine, it is just the You Tube application causing problems.
I have searched but have not found any postings that seem to answer these problems. Any help is gratefully received.
The Phone has an unlocked HTC standard rom on TMobile UK.
Many thanks

Update
I spent my lunch resetting and then hard resetting and seem to have calendar working properly. I backed up and restored and it still works OK, which is odd (but pleasing) as I would have thought I would be restoring what ever the problem was.
I still cannot get the You Tube applet to work and can find no setting that would allow me to alter how it finds the network.

You might have the proxy server setting active in advanced network settings, just remove the tick box if you do

Yes, that is necessary.
Also, with T-Mobile UK, you have to ensure their 'content lock' feature is disabled before the Youtube app will work. New T-Mobile accounts have content lock enabled by default (to protect minors from certain 'entertainment' sites). To remove the lock, you can either log into your T-mobile account online and follow the 'Phone settings' link, or call customer services and get them to do it.
Thanks
I checked proxy settings and they are disabled. It is not a major problem, just an annoying niggle as I can access You Tube via PIE etc. but it seems odd that the applet deesigned especially for the job doesn't work!
I had Youtube working out the box on T-Mob but couldnt get the facebook app or Microsoft MyPhone to connect.
I ended up setting up a second data connection with the settings:
general.t-mobile.uk
user
pass
And everything else left blank and on Auto and they then connected ok. Give that a shot and see if it helps.
I had the same youtube problem. It seems to be solved now, what I did was connect via wifi (which worked fine) and when I turned wifi off and connected over the air it worked.
I think this question has been posted somewhere before but i really tried search,got no clue.
Sometimes touch pro2 automatically connects to the internet,you can see a pop-up window,saying that something like " cannot connect to...dialled...please check your connection.....dismiss".
This morning when I woke,I saw this window again,sorry I pushed dismiss button,the window's gone,so i cannot copy the exact content here.
I dont count,but i think all the roms I installed has this phenomenon. So I guess all of you saw this pop-up windows.
can someone point me to the right link that answered this issue?
thanks.
-auto weather update?
-Activesync trying to connect to your exchange server?
-Your other POP3/IMAP email accounts trying to poll the server?
-Microsoft MyPhone set to auto sync?
-Microsoft Live trying to poll the server?
-QuickGPS trying to auto update?
-anything else running in the background that uses the internet? (eg, Marketplace, IM apps, browser, etc)
if that window is popping up then you have the wrong data settings. find the correct data settings for your mobile operator/carrier and put them in your phone, or if you don't want to use any wireless data search for modaco no data on google and use that app to stop your device from attempting to connect.
Thanks a lot ! Was looking for that program....
Also you can use 1minute gprs disconnect, it´s a great tool
These are most likely stupid questions for you experts, but it is driving me crazy. I am using the stock AT&T rom that came with the phone.
1) What do I use WiFi or AT&T? I also have a wireless modem setup at my office and at home. Can I connect to these? What is "Mobile Web" for?
2) How do I know what browser I am connecting to? I have Opera and Internet Explorer. Most of the time Opera does not every connect. I have even downloaded Opera 10, but I cannot find it.
1. If both are present, use whatever you want. WiFi can sometimes be faster, so if its available you may prefer WiFi when its available. But ATT's internet will work almost everywhere that has a cell phone signal.
2. I think "Mobile Web" is what the browser shortcut on the HTC interface is named on the stock ATT ROM, if I remember correctly (I'm not running stock on mine, its just called "Internet" on mine). Its just a shortcut to the browser. If you use this tab, it automatically opens to Opera.
The icon for Opera 10 should be in root directory of the Start Menu. If not, use the File Explorer (Start>Tool) and browse for "Opera10.lnk" to find where it was installed to.
PAP or CHAP Authentication?
What is this and what should my setting be? It is in the Advanced Network in the Connections Folder. I am trying to figure out why my Microsoft Mail will not come in automatically anymore. I have been playing around with my phone a lot and may have changed something that I cannot figure out what it was.
Another question is the Microsoft Direct Push - should this be on or off?

I have Opera 9, but have not found anything for Opera 10.
Did you actually install Opera 10, or just download it (somewhat common error)? It will download as a .cab file, which you then have to unpack and install by clicking on it.
If it was installed, it would show up in Remove Programs. Go to Start>Settings>System>Remove Programs, and see if Opera 10 is there.

It should be PAP.
Try not to mess around with too many things, if you don't know what they do (such as seeing the tweak on these forums). You can mess things up pretty badly. Or at least keep track of what the default option was before you change it, so you can change it back. Although if all else fails, you can hard reset (Start>Settings>System>Empty Storage). But you will lose all your data and return the phone to its factory settings.
If you want your email automatically pushed from a MS Exchange server (such as work email) when Direct Push should be on. Where do you see the setting for this?

It is here.

Ah, yes. That one.
I think that will cause the phone to push MS Exchange emails to your phone whenever they arrive, and cause shortened battery life. Better to just schedule ActiveSync to download your emails periodically (unless you are really that dependent on getting your email instantly). In which case, you can turn this option "off". Or if you don't use any MS Exchange services at all, you can also turn it off.

This is what I had to pay extra for due to having to get the e-mails (for work) when they come in if I am not in my office. The company is paying the bill.
I've got a bit of weird problem on HTC Desire.
I've noticed that whenever I'm using my mobile internet data (Vodafone Aus), I can't actually do any sort of web browsing, but I can use the facebook app, update the weather widget, retrieve email from hotmail + Gmail etc, basically everything that needs internet access except use the browser.
I've tried both the default and Dolphin HD with no luck - Google home page will load but that's only because its in the cache - I can't do any new Google searches etc.
I know the phone can access websites because I can browse the net when I connect to my uni's WiFi, or any other WiFi.
Wondering if there's some kind of mobile internet setting I should be changing that I'm not aware that might solve this?
I know I should call Vodafone and ask them to check if there's somehow a problem on my account on their end but figured I might ask on here first to see if anyone else has had anything like this happen before I do so - just so they don't turn around and tell me its the phone.
(when I went in to set up the plan, the lady specifically told me that they took no responsibility for their services working on a "non Vodafone phone")
Oh and I don't think its worthy to note, but just in case:
ever since I switched to the contract from pre-paid I haven't been able to send international text, despite having roaming activated. Since I switched plans when I got the new phone, I can't actually determine if its the contract, the phone, or both that's not letting me send (but I suspect its Vodafone - something else I need to hassle them about)
Any help would be awesome
Sounds like you don't have some settings. Give Vodafone a ring and see if they can send the correct settings to your phone. They won't take responsibility but they can help you like that since your using their service. If that doesn't work, have a look in the APN settings.

Thanks Meaple, I'll have a go, although Vodafone generally redirects you to their website where you input your phone model and it gives you the APN values you need to put in, which I have done.
Having said that, I can't send MMS with my phone despite having their APN values, so I know the MMS part must be wrong somehow
- I didn't think it could be the APN because the internet isn't completely inaccessible? Is it possible for apps to be able to use the net while the browser can't?
Never mind - Solved my problem.
In my attempt to fix my MMS problem way back, I changed settings around and stupidly added the "MMS Port" and "MMS proxy" as the proxy + port for internet, without realising the actual options for those two were further down.
- Deleted those, and went back and re-did the setup for the MMS as per vodafone instructions, setting up a separate "VF PXT" APN
(in my search for solutions I'd found a post somewhere saying you could combine the information for MMS and internet into 1 APN, and that's what I had done)
Cheers for nudging me to re-check APN settings, Meaple
